Nongmen red bean is the most acacia

Chapter 194 The first business

You can save what you can save, but you can’t save what you can’t!
The whole family needs a lot of water just to eat.

Now that food is expensive and water is scarce, it is not easy to eat enough water.

If this water is not expensive, you can buy some.

The old woman was thinking a lot, but she didn't show it on the surface, she just looked at the red beans quietly, waiting for her to give the price.

The price was negotiated at home, so Hong Dou didn't hesitate and said it directly.

"A penny a barrel."

"A piece of money?" The old woman's voice was raised a lot, obviously not satisfied with the result.

Cursing her lips, the old woman said with some distaste, "I go to fetch water from the well by myself, and it doesn't cost me as many buckets as I need. Your bucket costs a penny, which is a bit too expensive."

Hearing what the old woman said, Hong Dou was not angry, but still smiled and said, "If Madam thinks it's too expensive, then we'll leave."

She can't do things like force buying and selling.

The price has been negotiated at home before, and will not change because of what others say.

As for whether someone will buy it, Hongdou is not worried at all.

It's best if someone buys it, and if no one buys it, then sell the eggs, which saves trouble!
The old lady thought for a while and finally didn't buy it. Seeing this, Hongdou also prepared to leave with Gu Zian.

Before the two of them had gone two steps, the old lady hurried up again, "I just heard you yelling that you still sell eggs, right?"

"Yeah, do you want to buy eggs?" Hong Dou asked with a smile.

"Can I see it?"

Hearing this, Hong Dou didn't say a word, walked to Gu Zian's side with his back to Gu Zian, and asked Gu Zian to take an egg out of the basket.

Seeing that the egg was not small, the old woman liked it, and she also put on a smile on her face, "How do you sell this egg?"

"A penny a penny."

The old woman's face became a little speechless when she heard the words, "You sell a bucket of water for a penny, and an egg for a penny?"

Faced with the old woman's doubts, Hong Dou remained calm, "The price of other people's eggs is also the same, but I didn't set the price. As for water, I don't care how much others sell, anyway, I have this price."

From the beginning to the end, Hongdou had a smile on his face, but the words he said were indeed extremely firm.

While the two were talking, the doors of almost other people opened in the alley, and they probably came out after hearing their conversation.

Most people like to watch the fun and join in the fun. Seeing that Hongdou and the old lady were talking, they also came over to ask.

In the face of everyone's inquiries, Hongdou had no choice but to repeat the price.

The old lady had already returned to her door, so she probably wouldn't buy it.

Hongdou didn't care about this, instead she smiled and looked at the others.

After being watched for a while, Hongdou saw a middle-aged man stepping forward.

"I want your two buckets of water, and ten eggs."

"Okay, do I need to help you bring the water in?" Hong Dou quickly agreed, and didn't forget to ask.

The man waved his hand, "I'll do it myself."

As he spoke, the man took out a purse, counted twelve coins and handed it to Hongdou.

After giving the money, the man carried a bucket of water and walked home.

Seeing this, Gu Zian picked up another bucket of water and followed behind the man.

The two came back after a while, and the man also held another small bamboo basket in his hand, which was used to hold eggs.

The eggs are placed in the red bean basket, which is covered with a thick layer of wild grass, and the eggs are placed in it.
