Chapter 32 Buying a Clay Pot
Yun the Butcher and Yun Yiyi drove the donkey cart along the street. At this time, there were not many pedestrians on the street. It was probably because it was too hot and no one wanted to go out.
"Dad, there is a grocery store in front. Should we buy another big earthenware jar? In this way, we can store more water. Now, we have bought food and we are not short of food for the time being. However, we are always short of water." Yun Yiyi asked, pointing to the grocery store in front.
"Yes, we do need to buy it. When the time comes, we can fill it with water and put it on the donkey cart. Fix the sides of the clay jar so it won't break easily. Let's go and have a look. If the size is right, we'll buy two." Butcher Yun drove the donkey cart to the door of the grocery store and stopped.
At this time, a young man came out of the shop. He took the rope from Yun the butcher and helped tie it to the door of the shop. Yun the butcher and Yun Yiyi walked into the shop. After entering the shop, Yun Yiyi found that the shop was also quite large. It looked to be about 50 square meters in size. There were many large and small jars and some earthenware pots placed against the wall on the west side of the shop.
There are four sets of shelves in the middle, on which are placed exquisite tea sets. There are small teapots with lotus leaf patterns, and cups with green lotus leaf paintings. There are teapots with simple landscape paintings, and the cups are also a set of beautiful landscape tea sets. There are also exquisite tea sets with green bamboo on the teapot and bamboo on the cup.
Looking closely, the patterns on each set of tea sets are different, but each set is very delicate and can be liked at first sight. However, the Yun family does not have the habit of drinking tea. In this era, drinking tea is still a relatively elegant and expensive hobby. In this era, transportation is not well developed, and it takes a long time to travel between two places, and information exchange is also slow.
In addition, tea making technology was not as advanced as in later times, so tea with a slightly better taste was very expensive. High-end tea sets were also not cheap. Here, those who really drink tea, love tea, and understand tea are definitely not poor people. Poor people are still working hard for a living, and they cannot reach this level.
There were two sets of shelves at the eastern end of the store, with white porcelain bowls, plates, and spoons of different patterns on them. The patterns on them were very beautiful, some were rich peonies, some were peaches, and some were two fat fish. I guess the prices were not cheap either, Yun Yiyi thought secretly.
"Boss, how much is one of the clay pots in our store?" asked Yun the butcher, pointing to the large clay pot on the west side of the store.
"Hello, that earthenware jar is 400 coins each. If you want two, it will be 760 coins. Don't think that the price is a bit high. It is really worth it. This earthenware jar has a lid on it, which is very airtight. In addition, this earthenware jar is specially customized by us.
It is thicker and harder than ordinary clay pots. Ordinary clay pots are very thin, very fragile, and easy to break. However, our clay pots are very strong and not easy to break. You can buy them to store water and grain. There is no problem at all. "The shopkeeper said, pointing to a clay pot that was almost one meter high.
Yun the butcher touched the jar and found that the surface was very smooth without any bumps. Some kilns make jars very roughly, with bumps on the surface and inside, and they are also made thin, so they will break if you are not careful. However, the price is also relatively cheap. Yun the butcher opened the lid and touched the inside, which was also smooth and indeed quite thick.
It is estimated that the thickness is almost the same as that of a water tank. Such a large earthenware jar can be placed on a donkey cart to store food, water, and meat. It has a large capacity and is sturdy. However, Yun the butcher thought about it and decided that he could only pile two more earthenware jars on the donkey cart. If there are more, there will be no place to put them.
"Okay, shopkeeper. Then I'll take two earthenware jars. My donkey cart is outside the store. Please ask your waiter to help me put them on the cart." Yun the butcher handed seven hundred and sixty coins to the shopkeeper.
"Okay, please wait a moment." The shopkeeper took the money and told the boy to put the two earthenware jars on the donkey cart and tie them up with ropes.
After saying goodbye to the shopkeeper, Yun the Butcher and Yun Yiyi continued walking forward. After walking a short distance, they reached the end. They turned right and came out of another street. Wow, there were actually many vegetable stalls and some snack shops on this street. The vegetable stalls were all open-air, and you could tell what vegetables were being sold at a glance.
"Dad, it's a good thing we got here, otherwise we would have missed the vegetable vendor." Yun Yiyi said happily.
"Yes, let's go around the stalls one by one. Try to buy vegetables that can be stored. Buy less vegetables that are easy to spoil." Yun the butcher instructed.
Yun the Butcher and Yun Yiyi came to a stall selling cabbage, on which were two baskets of cabbage. The cabbage was not very big, and the outer leaves looked a little wilted, but if you look closely at the soil at the roots, you can see that the cabbage is very fresh. The cabbage seller was a sturdy middle-aged woman. She sat on a small stool, drinking water and watching people passing by. When someone passed by, she shouted loudly that she was selling cabbage. When no one passed by, she held the cup and drank water. She looked very kind.
"Auntie, how much do you sell your cabbages for?" Yun Yiyi asked.
"My cabbage is five cents a head. Do you want to buy some cabbage, little girl?" The middle-aged woman selling vegetables stood up and asked with a smile.
"Yes, auntie. We are refugees from outside the city. We haven't seen such juicy cabbages for a long time. Did you grow these cabbages, auntie? You are so capable." Yun Yiyi praised with a thumbs up.
"Oh, little girl, you have such a sweet mouth and are really good at praising people. Yes, I grew these cabbages. My yard is big, and I cultivated most of it to grow vegetables. As a result, I planted too much and couldn't eat it all, so I took out some to sell and then went to buy food." The woman selling vegetables said proudly.
"Although you are a little dark, you are so cute and don't look like a refugee from outside the city at all." The middle-aged woman took a look at Yun Yiyi's chubby body and said.
"Haha, aunt, I'm so fat because my parents raised me well. My family has bought all the cabbages from your house. Can you give me a discount?" Yun Yiyi said embarrassedly, clasping her fingers together.
"Brother, this is your little girl, right? How did you raise her? She is so smart and cute. When I see her, I want to take her home and raise her. She is nothing like the two naughty boys at home who are so charming every day." The woman selling vegetables said to Yun the butcher enviously.
"Big sister, thank you for the compliment. To be honest, I have three naughty boys in my family, and this girl is the youngest and also the most caring one." Yun the Butcher said happily.
"Haha, my daughter is so thoughtful." The vegetable selling woman echoed.
