Splendid Nongmen's little medical concubine

Chapter 625 It's All Money

It was only four o'clock the next morning, and the men of the Ye family got up and went to the fields to collect eels.

Today, we not only need to collect eels, but also show the results to people in two nearby villages, let everyone know the power of eel cages, and sell those made by Ye Chaoyang.

Worried that there were not enough eels and loaches in the field, Ye Xiaohan quietly sprinkled fish powder on the earthworm bait in ten eel cages.

I didn’t sprinkle all of them, but only ten, because I was worried that there would be too many eels and loaches, which would raise everyone’s expectations, and blame them for disappointment in the future.

People in this world are not good at catching eels and loaches, and they have no idea how many loaches there are in the paddy fields and ditches in the village.

Therefore, the Han family was shocked when they saw the eel cage full of eels.

Then they screamed together and counted the price.

The account is easy to settle.

Each cage received about five catties of eels by visual inspection. Calculated by five catties, one hundred eels received almost five hundred catties. Ye Xiaohan said that buying them for ten cents per catty would be five taels of silver.

After deducting the cost of ten cents per cage, it is four taels of silver.

No, they all make eel cages now, which means the cost is even lower.

Everyone was so happy from ear to ear, Ye Chaoyang was also happy, but he didn't forget to tell the truth, "Eels and loaches will only go down less and less."

The implication is that I will not earn so much in the future.

Everyone agrees with him, but is still very happy.

"It's okay, even if the average daily charge is only ten catties, I'd be happy to be able to charge for a month in a row."

"Yes, that way you can earn three taels of silver, and you can build a new house in a few years."

"Yes, thank you Chaoyang, we will remember your kindness."

……

Ye Chaoyang smiled slightly, "This is all Han'er's idea.

Han'er also said that three days later, I will entrust you to help collect the eels, and I will give you two cents per catty to make money.

Well, it’s already dawn, let’s go to Xiaoshan’s uncle’s house first, collect their eels, and then sell eel cages nearby. "

Ye Xiaohan told him to hang out in several nearby villages, intending to sell the eel cages and then quickly send the eels back to the fish pond in Gujia Village.

When the group arrived at Uncle Ye Xiaoshan's house, it was already daylight.

A large group of villagers gathered around the door to discuss.

After the carriage passed by, those people froze for a moment, then gathered around together, demanding to buy eel cages.

"Is it Ye Chaoyang? Ye Chaoyang, I want to buy you twenty eel cages. This is money."

"Ye Chaoyang, I want to buy twenty too. Is it worth ten Wen each? This is two hundred Wen."

"Ye Chaoyang, I'll buy thirty."

"I'll buy forty of them, and each of them will sell five catties of fish. Forty of them can earn... two taels of silver. If it's not that there is no place to fish, I would like to buy more."

……

Ye Chaoyang: "..."

He hesitated for a while, and said to everyone, "Go to Hanjia Village to buy it, I have to go to the neighboring village."

The villagers disagreed, "Whoever you sell is not selling, can't you sell them all to us? Why go to the neighboring village?"

Ye Chaoyang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "We sell eel cages to collect eels, and your village doesn't have enough eels for us to collect. Anyway, we can only get them in the evening, so you can go to Hanjia Village to buy them without delay. Besides, I don't bring many eels, not enough for you to buy."

As soon as he said this, the villagers immediately understood, and hurriedly stepped aside, preparing to go to Hanjia Village.

Although it is said that it will not be released until the evening, what should I do if I am too late and can’t buy a cage?
Besides, it is not difficult to weave this eel cage. They bought the reference earlier, so they can weave it accordingly.

After the villagers left, Ye Chaoyang dropped two hundred eel cages to Ye Xiaoshan's two uncles, weighed the 97 catties of eels they had collected today, and said to them, "97 catties of eels, ten cents per catty is 970 cents. , I’ll give you two hundred cages, let’s not make a fuss.”

Everyone in Ye Xiaoshan's ancestral family was stunned.
