Chapter 36 Yiyi Discovers the Hen and Vegetable Seeds (Part )

Yun Yiyi saw that many people came here out of curiosity, but left after they found out that what was sold was not what they wanted. People living in the capital city generally have no shortage of food and meat. Although the price of meat is higher than before, it can still be bought.

Vegetable seeds are not very useful for people living in the capital. People in the capital usually buy vegetables to eat, and don't grow them themselves. Even if they buy vegetable seeds, they don't know how to grow them, and there is no place to grow them. Those who can grow vegetables in the capital are those who have large yards. Let's talk about hens. Even if you buy them, there is no place to raise them, and they have to be fed with grain. That's why they can't be sold for a long time.

Yun Yiyi thought for a moment, then walked up and asked, "Uncle, how much do you sell your pumpkins, hens, and vegetable seeds for?"

The young man in the middle stood up and looked at Yun Yiyi. "Little girl, where are your parents? Did you ask the price and plan to buy it?" He looked around and didn't see any adults following Yun Yiyi.

"Uncle, my father is waiting for me over there. He asked me to come over and take a look and ask the price. If it's suitable, I will go back and get the money from my father." Yun Yiyi said, pointing at Yun the Butcher.

"My pumpkins are very big and taste very sweet. We sell them for fifty coins each. My family also feeds the hens ourselves. The hens are over one year old and less than two years old. They can lay an egg every day. We plan to sell this hen for one or two taels of silver. The other vegetable seeds are also collected by my mother. There are cucumbers, rapeseed, cabbage, radish, coriander, and loofah. They are all vegetables that we often eat here.

My mother always picked out the best vegetables to save for seeds. You don't have to worry about not being able to grow vegetables after buying them. We plan to sell these vegetable seeds for 100 coins. We didn't plan to sell these things originally, but we are now in the city to seek refuge with relatives. They have already paid the deposit for my family, prepared a house for us to live in, and prepared a lot of food.

My mother said that we should not trouble our relatives anymore. She asked us to sell these things and then buy food. Nowadays, no one has enough food, and our relatives are a big family. They have helped us a lot to this extent. "The young man said excitedly.

"Uncle, I bought all these things. Can you calculate how much it costs in total?" Yun Yiyi asked, pointing at the things in the basket.

"We brought four pumpkins, which cost two hundred coins in total. The hen is one tael of silver. The vegetable seeds are one hundred coins. All together it's one tael of silver and five hundred coins. To be honest, the price we quoted is really not high, so we can't give you a discount." The young man said, scratching his head embarrassedly.

"It's okay, uncle. I know the price you quoted is indeed not high. However, I have another request. Can you give me these three baskets? We don't have any extra baskets now. And we have no place to put the things we bought." Yun Yiyi asked.

"Okay, then I'll give you these three baskets. They're all woven by our family, and they were free of charge." The young man smiled naively.

"Okay, thank you, uncle. Please wait for me, I'll go get the money from my dad." Yun Yiyi said, pointing at Yun the Butcher.

"Okay, little girl. We'll wait for you here. You'd better hurry up. It's getting late." said the young man.

"I'll be back soon, uncle." After saying that, Yun Yiyi ran towards Yun the Butcher.

Yun Yiyi thought about it and decided that the hen could be left outside. She could then keep it in a basket. She could feed it some cabbage leaves and occasionally some grain, and it would be easy to keep. Moreover, hens usually don't make noises, and it's not easy for others to find them. Just because it can lay one egg a day, Zhang would definitely be willing to feed it.

The pumpkin needs to be put in the space. If you have time, you can dig out the pumpkin seeds and dry them. Then, you can plant pumpkins in the space. And the bag of vegetable seeds should also be put in the space. When you have free time, you can collect the corn and peanuts in the space and plant more vegetables. In the future, you will not lack vegetables to eat. If you find an opportunity, you can also smuggle some out and eat together.

The young man selling things has a big basket. He can sneak a basket of cotton out of the space. I guess it is heavier because there are cotton seeds in it. The basket should be full of 40 kilograms. The grocery store sells cotton without cotton bolls for 320 coins per kilogram. If the cotton bolls are not removed, I will tell Yun the butcher 200 coins per kilogram. Forty kilograms, it is eight taels of silver. The basket should be more than enough for 40 kilograms of cotton. As for the extra part, I will tell Yun the butcher that it is sold at the package price, so it is cheaper.

Yun Yiyi thought about the corn in the space again. Hmm, let's also fill a basket with corn. That basket can probably hold 100 jin. Corn flour in the grocery store is sold at 35 wen per jin. The corn in Yun Yiyi's space is corn kernels, not ground into flour. Never mind, let's sneak it out first. As for when to eat it, I'll think about how to turn the corn kernels into corn flour. Let's quote the price of corn kernels to Yun the butcher at 20 wen per jin. 100 jin of corn kernels is 2 taels of silver.

Yun Yiyi thought about the basket where the hens were placed. Under that basket, most of the potatoes could be placed. Then put the hens on top of the potatoes. Yun Yiyi thought that potatoes were heavy. Most of the potatoes in the basket must be 100 jin. Let's calculate it as 100 jin. If you buy more, it will always be cheaper than if you buy less. Let's quote Yun the butcher 25 wen per jin for potatoes, Yun Yiyi calculated. 100 jin of potatoes is 2.5 liang of silver.

The corn kernels, potatoes, and cotton that were smuggled out of the space cost a total of twelve and a half taels of silver. Adding the hen, it would cost thirteen and a half taels of silver. Yun Yiyi would not worry that Yun the Butcher had no money. In Yun Yiyi's memory, Yun the Butcher opened a meat stall in the town after marrying Zhang. He did not make much in the first year, but in the second year, when he had more customers, he made more.

The Yun family had no other major expenses except paying taxes and raising children. Therefore, all the money earned by Yun the Butcher was saved by Zhang. Originally, Yun the Butcher was planning to buy a few more acres of land in the village, but later he considered that Zhang was alone, taking care of the children, working in the fields, and doing housework, which was too busy. If he bought a few more acres of land, Zhang would be even more overwhelmed. Yun the Butcher went to town every day, and there was not much he could do to help at home. Therefore, he gave up the idea of ​​buying land.

At the beginning of the drought, the Yun family had no shortage of food. The butcher Yun kept all the food that the family had harvested for his own consumption. Unlike other people in the village, who would choose to sell part of the food after harvesting in order to exchange for money, the Yun family had never sold any food.

It was only this year that the Yun family finished eating all the food they had grown. However, Yun the butcher was doing business in the town and was well-informed. When the drought first started, the price of food was not high, so he bought food for his family. Later, when the price of food went up, Yun the butcher also bought food every now and then.
