Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

The Wu brothers and sister-in-law didn't speak too loudly, but they didn't avoid people. Xu Wanning, who was standing not far from them, heard clearly.

My brother is a good brother, and his sister-in-law is also a good sister-in-law. Although the two brothers are separated, the brother can remember his younger brother, and the sister-in-law does not object. It can be seen that they usually get along well.

"Brother Zhang Yuan, can I meet the owner of the chicken farm? I want to buy chickens from him."

Zhang Yuan pointed at Wu's brother and sister-in-law: "Aren't you just standing here? If you want to buy as much as you want, just tell them directly."

"I mean, I want to buy cocks. If it goes well, I want to buy them all."

"What did you say? Buy a cock?"

"Buy them all? Are you sure you mean the rooster?"

Even Xu Maoying looked at Xu Wanning in disbelief: "An Ning, roosters are not as nutritious as hens. Everyone still prefers to eat hens."

"Old hens stew soup is indeed more nutritious, but for us who open a store and do business, taste is the most important. The meat of roosters is obviously more tender and tastes better. Old hens can only be used to stew soup."

It is not impossible to use old hens to make other dishes, but the taste and texture will be greatly compromised, so the first choice must be roosters, and they must be "in their prime" roosters, not roosters that are about to die of old age.

But it doesn't matter, Xu Wanning has other uses for these chickens.

After Wu's sister-in-law confirmed that what Xu Wanning wanted was a cock, she pushed her husband, who was still dazed, and said, "Why are you still dazed? Go call me cock!"

"That's right, I'm going to call him right now!"

Soon, the eldest brother Wu and the second brother Wu came out together.

"Boss, do you really want to buy my cock? And all of it?"

Xu Wanning said: "I have this intention, but I also have to consider the price factor."

"Boss, just tell me the minimum amount you can give me. As long as it's suitable, I'll sell it all!"

"Old hens on the market now cost 50 cents a pound. Roosters are cheaper than hens. Besides, many of the roosters you have here are already very old, so the price has to be lowered. And I want it." If the quantity is large, theoretically there should be discounts.”

"So, the price I can give is 25 cents per catty."

"Sell! I sell them all!"

Wu Laoer agreed without any hesitation.

Let alone 25 cents, even if you only give him 10 cents per pound, as long as Xu Wanning wants them all, he will be willing to sell them!

Boss Wu and Sister-in-law Wu had no objections.

They usually sell old hens for only 35 cents a pound, and they can sell them for 40 cents at most, not even 50 cents.

Fifty cents is the price at the farmer's market.

"Okay, let's say it first."

"No, just wait a moment!"

Xu Maoying stopped Xu Wanning: "Buy it now? Don't think about it anymore?"

Xu Wanning thought thoughtfully: "We have to think about it. There are at least a hundred chickens. How can we bring them back?"

Xu Maoying roared: "I'm not talking about transportation issues! An Ning, this is a rooster. Just buy it. Why do you want to buy so many at once?"

If Xu Wanning bought all the old hens from Mr. Wu's house next door, Xu Maoying wouldn't say a word.

Xu Wanning lowered her voice and said, "Third brother, believe me, these roosters will maximize their effectiveness!"

"Okay, you are the sister, you have the final say."

Wu Laoer found a scale, but it was not big and could only weigh two or three chickens at a time.

"I have a total of one hundred and twelve chickens here. It will take more than an hour to weigh them all. How about you leave one person to keep an eye on the weighing while the others go do other things first?"

"That's fine. Third brother, help me keep an eye on the scales. Brother Zhang Yuan and I will go for a walk."

Xu Maoying put her hand on Zhang Yuan's shoulder and squeezed hard with her fingers: "Take care of my sister."

"You don't need to say this?" Zhang Yuan rolled his eyes at Xu Maoying and caught up with Xu Wanning, "A-Ning, what should we go see next?"

"We have chickens, but are there any ducks or geese?"

"You are having trouble with poultry today, aren't you? But there are really no ducks or geese in our village, only cows, sheep and pigs. Do you want to watch?"

Xu Wanning nodded, "Let's take a look. But I want to walk around and take a look."

"Okay, I'll just stay with you."

Although he said it was just a casual look, in fact Xu Wanning walked from the east end of the village to the west end of the village, walked through the entire village, and knew who had the best cattle, sheep, and pigs.

There were more than sixty households in the village, and Xu Wanning was stunned to choose three households that raised sheep, three households that raised pigs, and one that raised cattle.

The cattle are the most common large cattle in rural areas, not dairy cows.

Xu Wanning took out a pen and paper from her messenger bag, wrote down all the houses she had remembered, and gave the paper to Zhang Yuan.

"Brother Zhang Yuan, can you please help me inform the people of these families? If you want to sell, please go to Wu Lao'er's house to find me."

"No problem, I'll inform you now."

Xu Wanning went back to Wu Lao'er's house first, and the chickens were also weighed.

But Xu Maoying's expression was not good.

Seeing Xu Wanning coming, he said angrily: "This Wu Laoer, when you made it clear that you wanted to buy a rooster, he actually said that he would only sell half of the roosters, and let us buy the remaining half of his eldest brother's hens. . This hasn’t even happened yet, and you’re already talking about conditions?”

"Big boss, please don't be angry. My brother is good at everything, but he is a bit stubborn. Our family doesn't sell hens, so you should collect all his roosters as soon as possible."

"Even if we want to buy hens, that will happen later. Let's solve it one by one first to avoid confusion later."

Wu Laoer's chickens are well raised. The largest rooster can grow to just over ten pounds, and the medium-sized ones can also grow to eight pounds.

But there are also some little chickens, only three or four pounds.

"One hundred and twelve chickens, a total of eight hundred and ninety-six kilograms, a pound and 25 cents, a total of two hundred and twenty-four kilograms. Is the calculation correct?"

Wu Laoer shook his head stiffly: "No...no."

Xu Wanning took out the money from her crossbody bag, counted two hundred and twenty-four kilograms and gave it to Wu Laoer: "You can order a little more for yourself."

"It's indeed two hundred and twenty-four yuan, thank you boss!"

Xu Wanning smiled and said: "You're welcome, we are mutually beneficial."

After the cooperation with Wu Laoer was concluded, she asked Wu Laoer again: "For thirty cents per pound, can I buy all your hens that are still laying eggs and sell them?"

"Sell!"

Boss Wu and Sister-in-law Wu said in unison.

It's finally their turn to be rich and wealthy!

During the weighing ceremony, Xu Wanning asked Boss Wu and Sister-in-law Wu: "After these chickens are sold, do you still plan to feed the chickens?"

Both of them shook their heads: "Raising chickens is too tiring, and the income is not stable, so why not go to the city to find work. At least you can see the wages!"
