Playful peasant girl made a fortune: uncle begged to take it away

Chapter 17 Buying a Pig

"Father, where are we going?" Mingyong thought, the last time Xiao Ming said he wanted to eat meat, let's go buy some meat, the oil at home is almost gone. "Let's go buy some meat."

When he arrived at the pork stall, Mingyong cut two catties of fat pork. Here, the fat pork costs 13 Wen a catty, the lean pork costs 10 Wen a catty, and some bones with meat cost 4 Wen a catty. Collar.

Mingyu looked at the pile of clean bones and a basket of pig offal in the basket on the ground, and Mingyu asked, "Uncle, how do you sell these?"

The boss looked at the pile of bones and pig offal. Most people would not eat these. He glanced at Mingyu and found that the little girl was very thin. Thinking of the man who came to buy meat with her just now, he seemed to be a little lame when he walked. It was also a poor family, so he said, "If you want, these bones cost 2 cents, and the internal organs cost 1 cent. You don't have anything to put them in. This basket has been around for a long time anyway. Let's count it as your 2 cents."

"Really? Thank you uncle, can I wash these internal organs and bring them back together with the bones?" Here comes the basin of water, you go to the ditch to wash."

The more Mingyong looked at it, the more he felt that Mingyu must be greedy, thinking that it was only a few pennies, so let it go.

When Mingyong walked back with Mingyu, Mingyu found that there was an old man selling piglets under the corner of the roadside wall, thinking that the pigpen at home was also empty, and now there were a lot of wild vegetables. There are every month, and at that time, we can order soybeans in various varieties, and we can grind soybean milk to sell, and feed the bean dregs to pigs, and then we will have sweet potato vines at home, so we don’t need to waste food, and we can make a small profit by raising them until they are killed every year. Then he grabbed Mingyong who was still going forward.

"Daddy, let's buy a little pig. The pigpen at home is a waste if it is empty. Then I will go to cut wild vegetables every day and come back to feed it. I can sell it in the new year." Ming Yong thought, "Pigs will Do you eat wild vegetables? A piglet costs about 100 renminbi. If it doesn’t grow up by then.” “Dad, I can definitely grow it up. Otherwise, if I sell the rabbit, it can be used as money to buy piglets. If I raise it When we grow up, won’t we have money by the end of the year?”

Mingyong thought about it, so he went to discuss with the pig seller about buying a pig, and finally bought the piglet at a price of 85 Wen.

When they went back, everyone was not interested in the other things Mingyu bought, but they were very interested in the little pig.

Everyone laughed and said, "Hey, Mingyong, your family is getting rich, why buy pigs?"

Mingyong smiled and said, "Oh, my legs are not good, and I want to raise a pig so that I can exchange some money in the new year and have a good year."

An aunt next to him was a little worried and said, "Baby Uncle Yong, raising pigs requires a lot of food. What do you want to feed it?"

Everyone knew the situation of his family, and they were a little worried that Mingyong would lose money.

The people in the village are very simple and honest. When Ming Yong and old man Ming hunted and hunted, they would sell them cheaply to the villagers in the village so that everyone could taste the meat. Everyone will remember it.

Mingyong smiled and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law. I planted sweet potatoes in my yard, and Mingyu and the others are helping me feed them at home. I can barely make ends meet when I go out to help others to earn some money. It's time to kill pigs, everyone. Don’t forget to come and buy it. Haha.” The people next to me agreed and said that they must come to buy it when the time comes, remember to save some for them.

After returning home, tomorrow and Xiaoming saw the little pig at a glance, and they kept walking around the pig. Mingyu joked that they would have to cut the wild vegetables that the pig ate, but the two little guys agreed immediately. up.Until Mingyong repaired the pigsty and put the piglet in the pigsty, the two little guys were reluctant to leave and stayed by the pigsty to watch.
