The voice was unfamiliar, Su Qingyue walked to the yard and saw a man outside who had bought roe deer meat from second brother’s hunting before. Not knowing the other man’s name, Qingyue replied, “They are all at home.”
“It must be Zhang Shun.” The voice of Xiao Yuchuan came from the master bedroom.
Zhang Shun walked to the entrance of the master bedroom, “Second Brother
Xiao, Chuan, are you all better now?”
“We won’t die from it.” Xiao Yuchuan asked, “What’s the matter?”
Su Qingyue heard this man was called Zhang Shun and immediately thought of the young woman with acne on her face who had asked about Five-step Snake powder before. Everyone called her Zhang Shun’s wife.
She guessed that Zhang Shun’s wife was reluctant to buy Five-step Snake powder, but her husband was willing to spend money for his wife. So she deliberately said, “Second brother, third brother, just now several families said they wanted to buy the Five-step Snake and asked me to deliver it. You guys take your time chatting, I’ll go and get busy first.”
Just now, clearly no one had come to order snake meat… Xiao Yishan and Xiao Yuchuan were both puzzled as to why the wife would say that but didn’t expose her. Yishan simply said, “Take it slow on the road.”
Su Qingyue nodded.
Zhang Shun hurriedly said, “Sister-in-law of the Xiao family, wait a moment…”
She glanced at him indifferently, “What is it?”
“I’m also here to buy Five-step Snake.” Zhang Shun asked somewhat awkwardly, “I don’t know how much the Five-step Snake that Second Brother Xiao caught costs per jin?”
“The Five-step Snake that second brother caught is quite big, and the bigger this kind of poisonous snake, the more expensive it sells for. Those over four jin sell for 150 cents per jin in town. I cut off the head and tail of the snake caught by second brother, and it has been divided into quite a few portions, definitely weighing about five jin, with at least four jin of meat pieces. I’ll charge you the price for four jin, which is originally 150 cents, but for you, 145 cents.”
“Can it be a little bit cheaper…”
“Considering the size of the poisonous snake, it’s already quite cheap.” Su Qingyue smiled and said, “If Boss Zhang comes to buy it, it means you’ve already inquired about the medicinal value of Five-step Snake powder.”
“Yes, I heard from relatives in town that taking a little bit of Five-step Snake powder every day not only has the effect of lightening dark spots and treating acne, but also has therapeutic effects on night sweats and excessive sweating. My wife’s face was originally clean, but she developed acne in the past few days, which worries her. Also, my father sweats profusely at night, so I was considering buying some Five-step Snake powder…”
It turned out that both people in his family needed it. She thought for a moment that Zhang Shun was dressed slightly better than an ordinary person in the village, which indicated that his family might be slightly better off than others. So she said, “How about this, Boss Zhang, if you want to weigh it all at four jins, I’ll give it to you for 144 cents per jin. The other families who asked
me to deliver It didn’t set a price, Dut since you came nere so sincerely, I’ll sell it to you first.”
“Four jins… ” Zhang Shun was calculating the price, but couldn’t figure it out for a moment.
Su Qingyue said, “Four jins are five hundred and seventy-six cents.”
Zhang Shun looked at her doubtfully, “You calculated so quickly…”
It’s simple to multiply a single jin by four, of course, the calculation is fast. Although she thought so, she said, “Isn’t it that some people have ordered it? I originally agreed to charge those households 146 cents per jin, so I had calculated the bill in advance.”
“Oh.” Zhang Shun was still quite hesitant, “It’s a bit expensive…”
“Good things can’t be cheap. Didn’t your relatives also tell you the price in town?”
“They mentioned that it was 130 cents per jin for a four- or five-jin poisonous snake a while ago, but now it costs 150 cents per jin..”
