"Okay, give me a tube." A man who just finished shopping for vegetables took out eight coins and said, "My wife has a baby and is confinement at home. I just give her fish and supplements."

"Okay, Bai Zhu picked out a tube of crucian carp and handed it to him, saying, "Cruc carp produces milk, and it's best eaten with tofu in soup. "

He cheerfully accepted the money, and made his first sale today. Bai Shu was also full of confidence in his live fish business.

With eight pennies, Bai Shu, who was so hungry, immediately went to the sesame seed stall next to the wonton stall to buy meat pancakes for two pennies. He also bought a bowl of mung bean soup that cost only one penny, and devoured it for two pennies. A biscuit.

The owner of the wonton stall was furious, but he had already pissed off Bai Shu just now, and he was too embarrassed to let him eat his own wontons.He could only say sourly: "It's just opened, and I thought I made a fortune. How can it be so easy to do business!"

After Bai Shu finished his lunch, he continued to sell fish. With the beginning just now, he continued to sell fish according to the method just now.

But after the beginning, many people came to see the live fish, but no one was willing to pay for it.

Bai Shu's voice became hoarse, and the spectators from all around came wave after wave, but they couldn't wait for his second business.

Seeing that the sun is getting lower and lower, some vegetable sellers around have closed their stalls, and the live fish in the bamboo tubes have turned over half dead after being exposed to the sun.

The old man selling wontons walked up to Bai Shu with his hands behind his back, and said with a smile, "What did I say, no one buys your fish."

Bai Shu frowned, looked at the fewer and fewer pedestrians and thought: No, he can't just sit here and wait for death.

Bai Shu is a newcomer and doesn't know the prices of this era.

A bowl of wonton for three pennies, and a bowl of mung bean soup for one penny seem very cheap.But food at such a price is not something ordinary people can afford.

Most ordinary people depend on the sky for their food. Once the crops grow in the fields, they will be sold in the market, and they may only earn a penny a month.

They came here to eat the dry food they brought with them, so they were naturally reluctant to spend eight cents on his live fish.

Bai Shu got up with the bamboo tube in her hand, and walked towards the county town.

Since there is no business here, he will look elsewhere.Those rich families in the county might be willing to buy his live fish.

Entering from the city gate is the main road of the county.The roads in the county town are not spacious, and only two ox carts can walk side by side.

The more he walked in, the more disappointed Bai Shu felt.This county is different from big cities, and the commerce is not particularly developed.

Although some people opened their doors along the street to do some business, they were all needle and thread stalls, noodle wontons and other small stalls, and there were no two big shops.

"Selling fish, selling fish! Fresh live fish, seven cents a tube." Bai Shu peddled along the street.

The fish in the bamboo tube was dying, so he didn't dare to sell it so expensive, so he lowered the price by a penny.

But all the way to sell it, except for one tea seller who came out and bought a tube, the rest didn't sell a single tube.

"Selling fish, fresh live fish, six yuan a tube." Bai Zhu had to continue to cut prices.

At this time, the sun was about to set, and Bai Shu felt that his fish might not be able to be sold.

At night, the village is so dark that you can't see your fingers. It's too late to go back at this time.

Bai Zhu gave up selling fish and decided to stay overnight in the county town.

He has only sold two tubes of fish now, and he has earned a total of fifteen coins. After eating three coins, he has twelve coins left.

Bai Shu hid the ten Wen coins in the soles of his shoes, leaving only two Wen coins, looking for a place to eat a bowl of hot noodles.As for where to live, anyway, the weather is hot now, so he can just find a place to lie down for the night.

Thinking this way, he came to a restaurant called Laifu Restaurant.

At this time, the smaller restaurants are closed, but there is still food available in this large restaurant.

This restaurant has two floors, the upper floor is the guest room, and the lower floor is the place to eat.

From Bai Shu's point of view, all the furniture in the store is painted with maroon wood lacquer, which looks old-fashioned and dull.But in terms of aesthetics at this time, the restaurant decorated in this way is already one of the best in the county.

"Do you want to stay at the shop? This...brother?" The shop waiter skillfully greeted Bai Shu who came in, and was stunned for a moment when he saw the red mole between his eyebrows.

Bai Shu didn't understand what Dajiaer was, but he understood the hotel behind.He looked at the sign on the wall, which clearly marked the price of all the food.

A plate of beef is [-] Wen, a plate of braised pork is [-] Wen, and a plate of braised fish is [-] Wen...

In addition to these expensive meat dishes, there are home-cooked dishes such as roasted tofu and stir-fried vegetables, which only cost six or seven yuan a piece.The cheapest one is Yangchun Noodles, a bowl of glossy noodles that only costs two cents.

It was Bai Shu who took out two Wen and put it on the table and said, "If you don't stay in the shop, bring me a bowl of noodles."

The waiter put away the two coins and said, "Please sit down." Then he turned to the back kitchen and yelled, "A bowl of Yangchun noodles."

After a while, a middle-aged man in a blue coat put a bowl of noodles in front of Bai Zhu.When he saw the bamboo tubes under the Baishu table, he was taken aback for a moment.

"Little brother?" The middle-aged man asked, "Is your bamboo tube filled with live fish?"

"Yes." Bai Shu looked up at him and said, "Do you want to buy it? Five cents a tube."

The middle-aged man discovered the red mole on Bai Zhu's forehead, and couldn't help being startled, he didn't expect that the black and thin boy in front of him turned out to be a brother.

At this time, which brother still walks outside alone without being afraid of encountering bad guys?This man's courage is too great.

But compared to his brother like this man, the middle-aged man is obviously more interested in those live fish.He picked up one of the bamboo tubes and looked at it: "Five cents a tube? The price is not expensive, but a lot of fish in yours are already dead."

"I caught this fish from the river in the morning." Bai Shu immediately said, "But now, there is only one day, and it is normal for a few to die. If it was freshly caught, I would sell a tube of live fish for eight dollars." What about money!"

"If it can be guaranteed to be alive, eight Wen in a tube is not a problem. But now more than half of your fish are dead, and I want all Four Wen in a tube, will you sell it?" The middle-aged man asked.

"I want them all?" Bai Shu was overjoyed.But it didn't show it on the face, but said in a pretentious way: "For four renminbi, the price is indeed lower. I don't know why this gentleman wants so many live fish? Can one person eat it all? "

"It's not for me to eat, but for the needs of the restaurant I run." It turned out that the man's surname was Yan, and he was the shopkeeper of this Laifu restaurant.
