The Most Dazzling National Style of Comprehension

The geographical location of Guanjiang Village is very embarrassing. It is at the junction of l county in l city and y county in g city.

The directly affiliated township of Guanjiang Village is L Township, 25 kilometers away from the village. There are complete mountain roads. It takes half an hour to go up a high mountain and half an hour to go down a mountain.It takes an adult four hours to walk to the countryside.And take another road from Luzhang Village in the middle of the road to Z Town, but you have to go the same distance, and you have to pay an extra fare.

After Zhou Man thought about it, he decided to go to Z Town.There is no other reason. I am afraid that the things he wants to sell will not be sold well in the countryside.

He went out at five o'clock in the morning, and walked for more than four hours with a weight of nearly ninety pounds. At nine o'clock, he arrived at the intersection of the mountain road and the second-level road, a village called Moxiwai.There is a shuttle bus from L Township to Z Town, and there are various tricycles for soliciting customers.But unfortunately, Zhou Man didn't have any money on him, so he could only continue walking, and walked for more than two hours before arriving at Z Town.

At this time, Zhou Man was tired and thirsty, but he still carefully found a place with a lot of traffic in the market and sat down.He put the basket behind him, first took a large piece of cloth made of broken mosquito nets and laid it on the ground, arranged the contents of the basket neatly, and then sat down.He was not in a hurry to yell, but first took out the yams and water—the water was packed in a bamboo tube, and a cork wrapped in cloth was stuffed on it.

The cassava in the morning is boiled, not as fragrant as the one made by fire, but the fragrant and glutinous taste still spreads out.Zhou Man had just finished eating a piece of cassava when a middle-aged man stopped in front of him.Asked: "Brother, do you sell cassava?"

"Yes." Zhou Man said with a smile, "It was just dug out from the mountain yesterday. Look, Uncle." Zhou Man randomly grabbed a joint and snapped it off, and handed the cut to the middle-aged man. "Do you see that the meat is white? The meat grown is all yellow. The ones I bought are so white that they are definitely real wild yams."

"It's quite upright." The middle-aged man turned it over and over in his hand and asked, "How do you sell your yams?"

Zhou Man pointed to the booth and said, "The small ones cost [-] cents each, the medium ones cost [-] cents each, and the large ones cost [-] cents apiece."

The middle-aged man was surprised: "Why don't you sell it by the catty?"

Zhou Man laughed and said, "My family is poor, and I can't afford a scale."

The middle-aged man was a little tempted, and asked him: "Cheaper? Iodized salt is only one yuan and sixty catties!"

Zhou Man shook his head: "Uncle, I came out of Guanjiang and walked for almost seven hours, so it can't be cheap."

"Forget it then." The middle-aged man put down the yam, turned around and left.

Zhou Man didn't care, anyway, he still had time, so he ate yams and waited.

After more than ten minutes, the other grandpa stopped: "Brother, what are you doing?"

"It's yam. It's dug from the mountains of Guanjiang Village. It's better to cook soup and stew bones than yam." Zhou Man broke off a section of yam in his hand and handed it to him, "Grandpa, eat some."

Grandpa took a bite, chewed it carefully, and asked the price.Zhou Man followed what he said just now, and Grandpa also frowned: "Pork is only fifty cents a catty!"

"Grandpa." Zhou Man said with a smile, "When did you want to eat pork on the street? But this yam is different. You don't have to buy too much, just buy a small one for ten cents, how about it?" ? Go back to make soup at noon, it's very fragrant!"

Grandpa hesitated again and again, and finally only bought a small one.

But if you have one, go for the second one. Originally, people in l city like to use yams to stew bone soup. I heard that yams are better than yams, so I bought them experimentally one at a time.This is why Zhou Man would rather walk two hours longer to come to Z town. Z town is a transit station, the residents in the town are more knowledgeable than l town, and they are willing to spend money to buy vegetables.Moreover, the town has a large population, if one out of ten buys it, Zhou Man will not lose everything.

After two hours of selling like this, it happened to be lunch time, and more than 13 catties of yams were almost bought, and Zhou Man had already earned more than [-] yuan.But Zhou Man was not satisfied, he still had a trump card to release.

In the afternoon, people heard that someone was selling yams in the market, and they came to see them one after another.The people who came suddenly found that there was a pile of black things beside the yams, which looked like shiitake mushrooms but were very hard.

"Brother, is this edible?" a person asked casually.

"Yeah." Zhou Man replied, "Yes, we call this thing iron fungus, and outsiders call it Ganoderma lucidum, which is a great tonic. If someone in the family is not feeling well, buy this and go back and stew it with the meat, then drink it Soup, keeping it is good for your health. Is there an old Chinese doctor nearby? Call him to come and see, and you will know that I am not lying."

"So miraculous?" Someone from the onlookers immediately went to call the old Chinese doctor.Less than 15 minutes later, a shriveled old man with a white beard came with a cane.

"Who dares to say that he sells Ganoderma lucidum? Did you ask for a beating?"

"Grandpa, isn't this Ganoderma lucidum?" Zhou Man was full of information, "I just picked it from the mountain the day before yesterday."

The old Chinese doctor pushed aside the crowd and walked to the stall. He first let out a surprise, then squatted down to look at it in shock, picked up a Ganoderma lucidum, looked left and right, and then carefully smelled it.

"How is it?" Zhou Man asked.

The old Chinese doctor didn't answer, but instead called a person's name and shouted: "Go and talk to the sixth general, his father is saved, let him hurry up and prepare the money!"

A child ran away quickly.People around quickly asked: "Old man, is this really Ganoderma lucidum?"

"Of course it's true!" The old Chinese doctor stared, "Could it be that I misunderstood the medicinal materials? I have been a doctor for 60 years in vain!"

"Is this Ganoderma lucidum miraculous?"

"It's as miraculous as wild ginseng, bringing the dead back to life!"

The old Chinese doctor has practiced medicine in Z Town for 60 years, and no one dares to doubt what he said.Immediately someone asked: "Brother, how do you sell this Ganoderma lucidum?"

Zhou Man said calmly: "It's still divided into three classes. The small pile costs three yuan a flower. The medium pile costs six yuan a flower. The large pile costs 13 yuan a flower."

"It's so expensive!!!" The crowd exploded immediately, and many people were timid and couldn't afford it.Even if you can afford it, you have to hesitate. After all, the price at this time is one-twentieth of that in 14, and 13 yuan is 14 yuan in 260. If you buy a medicinal herb for 260 yuan, it is more than [-] catties of pork belly!

While everyone was hesitating, a voice came: "Where is my dad's life-saving grass?"

A middle-aged man broke into the crowd, looking around anxiously.

"Here." The old Chinese doctor said, "This Ganoderma lucidum can replenish your father's lost energy and blood."

"Really?" Although the middle-aged man said so, he firmly believed in the words of the old Chinese doctor, and immediately said to Zhou Man, "How much is your Ganoderma lucidum? I want it all!"

all?Zhou Man didn't expect it to be so smooth, but the middle-aged man should be a rich man, so he didn't hesitate, and directly counted it up for him: "The small ones are eleven, three yuan a total of 33. The medium eight , six yuan per flower is 48, which is already 81. The big five flowers are 13 yuan per flower, which is 65 yuan, and the total is 140 yuan.”

140 six yuan!At that time, a catty of pork was only fifty cents, which was a huge sum of money!Everyone was shocked, and couldn't believe that this little boy earned so much money in just a few words!

"Here you are!" The middle-aged man took out one hundred and one fifty without hesitation, and one hundred was still the version of the four leaders.

"I'm sorry." Zhou Man said in embarrassment when he saw that it was the whole money, "I don't have any money with me, and I can't find any change. Can you exchange it with someone?"

"What do you want to change? I don't have time." The middle-aged man glanced around, pointed to the unsold yams on the ground and said, "Is this edible? Give it to me, just treat it as helping my dad." Accumulate virtue."

The yams left on the ground cost almost three yuan. Knowing that he didn't want to care about it, Zhou Man nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give you the mosquito net too, so you can take it all away."

The middle-aged man stuffed the money into his hand, carefully wrapped the Ganoderma lucidum and yams, and left quickly.Zhou Man also sold out his things. He smiled at the onlookers, turned around and went back to pack up the bamboo tubes and baskets filled with water, and then slipped the 100 yuan into a secret pocket inside his trousers while no one was looking. .Then, he picked up his backpack and went to the supply and marketing cooperative.

These days, probably only the supply and marketing cooperative can split his 50 yuan.

Zhou Man bought [-] catties of salt at the supply and marketing cooperative. At that time, salt was sold in packages of one catty, which was easy to calculate, and the price was [-] cents per package.In addition to salt, Zhou Man also bought slippers, two toothbrushes, two towels, three dozen toothpastes (one dozen nine boxes), one sewing kit, and two pieces of cloth.In addition, such as monosodium glutamate, kerosene, kerosene lamps, glass jars, hatchets, kitchen knives, bamboo shoot knives, axes, matches and so on.

"A total of 23 five cents."

Zhou Man unpacked the 50 yuan smoothly, and didn't need to go to other places, so he picked up the backpack and walked back.

Going back, Zhou Man was willing to pay fifty cents for the car, but when he got out of the car, he noticed that three men got out of the car behind him.

Zhou Man shook the straps of his back basket, and just walked forward, sneering silently in his heart.

After leaving Moxiwai Village, it was a long uphill. Zhou Man estimated where the people in the back would start, and visually judged that it was the bend for drinking water.So when he came to the bend, Zhou Man put the basket on the side of the road, took the bamboo tube and walked into the ravine by the side of the road. Just as he was about to stand up after filling the bamboo tube, his neck felt cold.

"Don't move! Hand over all the money you have on you!"
