The shopkeeper looked at Li Xiaobo and then at Lin Siyan, guessing that he had been pestered by the young woman in front of him, so he had no choice but to bring her to sell fish." F * ck boy, seeing that you often provide good things to this shop, I won't say anything. It's a fixed price of ten wen."”
Li Xiaobo frowned slightly. Seeing Lin Siyan's dissatisfied look, he thought about it and continued to say to the boss," Twenty coins."”
"This, this is equivalent to the price of a pound of mutton.”The shopkeeper glanced at Lin Siyan with dissatisfaction. After a long time, he said to himself," Eighteen coins. No more."”
Li Xiaobo nodded, ignoring the shopkeeper's pained expression as he took the 18 wens and handed it to Lin Siyan without hesitation.
Lin Siyan looked at the 18 copper coins in her hand and was extremely depressed. One copper coin was equivalent to 0.12 yuan, and more than two catties of grass carp were only sold for more than two yuan. If she had known earlier, she would have cooked them at home and eaten them.
The shopkeeper saw that Li Xiaobo had given the money to Lin Siyan and was even more certain of his guess. At the same time, he was also a little dissatisfied with Lin Siyan. After all, he and Li Xiaobo had been working together for a long time. This was the first time he had seen Li Xiaobo being pestered by a little woman. He decided to persuade Li Xiaobo when he had time.
After leaving the restaurant, Li Xiaobo brought Lin Siyan to a wonton stall and ordered a bowl of wonton for each of them.
After eating the wontons, Li Xiaobo handed 600 wen to Lin Siyan." I'll buy the rice, but you don't have to buy a dustpan. I know how to make it. If you want to buy anything, go buy it yourself."”
Lin Siyan looked at Li Xiaobo in surprise. Didn't she say that her family owed a huge debt and asked her to scrimp and save? Why did he give her money to buy things?
Li Xiaobo seemed to have seen through Lin Siyan's thoughts and said impatiently," Just take it!" He could buy whatever he wanted and meet up with the ox cart!”
After saying that, he stood up and paid before leaving.
"What an unlovable man." Lin Siyan muttered softly as she watched the other party disappear into the crowd.
She touched the 618 wens in her pocket and recalled Li Xiaobo's fierce appearance just now. He clearly looked fierce and fierce, and when he spoke, his brows were furrowed, causing the scar on his eyes to look particularly ferocious. If it wasn't for his slightly red ears, she probably wouldn't have been able to guess what he was thinking.
It seemed like this Mr. Gui Jianchou, who could scare children to tears just by saying his name, was very different from the rumors. Lin Siyan suddenly felt that it might not be bad to have this person in her future life.
Although it wasn't the first time Lin Siyan came to town to go to the market in the original owner's memory, it was the first time she went shopping in ancient times. There were all kinds of hawking and shouting in the market. From time to time, customers would come to their favorite stalls to choose items. She followed the flowing crowd and stopped, full of curiosity about the things on the various stalls.
What disappointed her was that there were many snacks in this place, but none of them were spicy. It was enough to make people drool from afar. Most of them were pastries, shortbread, and all kinds of wheaten food. It was almost impossible to eat mutton skewers or barbecue at roadside stalls like in his previous life.
In her previous life, although Lin Siyan wasn't born in an area famous for spicy food, everyone in her hometown liked spicy food. Every stir-fried dish would definitely have chili, and every soup dish would naturally have chili plates…Even if there were no other seasonings, as long as there was chili, the taste would most likely not be bad.
After walking around, Lin Siyan came to the seed shop. She decided to buy some chili seeds. She thought that she didn't see any food made with chili because chili didn't exist in this era. She didn't expect the shop owner to quickly bring her a small bag of chili seeds after she told him what she wanted to buy.
Lin Siyan then bought a lot of vegetable seeds, such as radishes, soybeans, cabbage, pumpkin, and so on. Actually, she wanted to buy more, but she remembered that it was already May, and many vegetables were not suitable to be planted in this season. Otherwise, they would be killed by the frost before they could bear fruit in winter.
"Boss, do you have tomato seeds other than chili?”As soon as Lin Siyan finished speaking, she saw the owner's confused face and hurriedly added," It's that kind of round fruit that's red after ripening. It tastes sour and sweet.”
"Oh! You're talking about Little sour fruit." The shop owner suddenly understood. He was happy to see Lin Siyan buy so many seeds, so he helped her pack them and asked curiously," Little lady, you don't look like you're from a rich family. Why do you want to buy chili and sour fruits to plant at home?”
"Is there something wrong?" Lin Siyan looked at her in confusion. Wasn't it normal for her to want to plant some peppers and tomatoes?
"Look, this chili and small sour fruit, one is so spicy, the other is so sour. Other than some rich people who like to buy them back as a landscape, ordinary people won't buy them.”
"I see." Lin Siyan was amused by the boss's words." Boss, aren't you worried that I won't take care of your business?”
The shop owner smiled and said," I'm not afraid. Since the little lady wanted to buy it herself, it was naturally useful. How could she not want it just because of a few words from me?”
"As expected of a businessman.”Lin Siyan smiled. Seeing that the shop owner had already wrapped all the seeds, she asked," How much is the total?“
"A small business, hehe, a total of sixty-three wen, I'll give you sixty wen.”
Lin Siyan nodded, took out 60 copper coins and handed them to the shopkeeper. She took the seeds wrapped in oil paper and turned to leave.
After buying the seeds, she went around to buy a few pieces of soap to wash her clothes or shower. However, he didn't know if he didn't ask. Once he asked, he was shocked. A palm-sized soap cost at least 200 wen, and the soap with floral fragrance was even more expensive. The most expensive one actually cost five taels of silver! She knew that it was a scam, but she still wanted to buy it. After all, she did not find anything in the bamboo house that could be used to remove dirt when bathing.
She endured the pain and bought two pieces of the worst soap. Lin Siyan looked at the remaining 158 wen and secretly swore that she must put her money-making plan on the agenda as soon as possible!
The Host was not born to be good at delicate work, such as embroidery. Others embroidered a mandarin duck, but in her hands, it became a duck. This was exactly the same as Lin Siyan. Therefore, it was impossible to earn money by manual labor. Fortunately, she had a mother who liked to make all kinds of snacks. When she was young, she learned to make many things, such as green balls, dumplings, glutinous rice cakes, mooncakes, and so on.
If she made something special, it might sell like sold well. At that time, let alone five taels of soap for one piece, she could even use it for ten taels of soap.
