Zhang Kaiwen was just passing by and had no intention of buying meat, but after hearing what he said, he became interested and said with a smile, "Buy it, of course I will! After all, we were classmates. Since I'm passing by, of course I have to take care of your business, right? Hehe!"
Then he asked, "You just said that this wild boar meat is seventeen cents per pound?"
Cai Junze said, "That's right, seventeen coins per pound. How much do you want to buy?"
Zhang Kaiwen glanced at the wild boar meat in the basket, his eyes flashing as he said, "This wild boar meat doesn't look very fresh. How can you have the nerve to sell it for seventeen cents a pound? Are you trying to rip me off?"
Cai Junze frowned and said, "My wild boar meat is very fresh. I caught the wild boar yesterday and killed it last night. How can you say my pork is not fresh?"
He is also talking nonsense.
After all, how could he be honest with you when doing business?
Zhang Kaiwen waved his hand and said, "It doesn't look fresh at first glance. It's at least four or five days old! My family lives in the city, and I often go out to buy meat. Based on my experience, I can tell whether meat is fresh or not at a glance!"
Cai Junze glared at Zhang Kaiwen coldly and said, "Zhang Kaiwen, if you can't see, don't talk nonsense. How could my pork be kept for four or five days?"
Zhang Kaiwen said, "You're a butcher, so of course you won't admit that your meat is not fresh. Anyway, from what I can see, your meat has been out for four or five days."
"Zhang Kaiwen, I think you are not here to buy meat, but to deliberately destroy my place?" Cai Junze was annoyed. He stood up suddenly, emitting a burst of anger.
"Don't be impulsive!" Zhang Kaiwen took out a hand and blocked Cai Junze. "I'm just telling the truth, but I didn't mean to ruin your place."
Then he said, "Don't get excited. If you have anything to say, let's talk it out nicely."
As he spoke, a hint of an ambiguous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
There were many people watching and pointing at him, which made Cai Junze feel very embarrassed.
He also wants to save face, okay?
"If you want to buy, buy it. If not, leave. Don't stay here and disturb my business!" Looking at the smile on his face, Cai Junze wanted to chop him with a knife.
"Fifteen cents a pound, I'll buy it." Zhang Kaiwen said with a smile.
"Not for sale!" Cai Junze refused.
"Your meat is worth at most fifteen cents per pound. Moreover, I am willing to accept this price for the sake of my classmate. Otherwise, I would not buy it even if you sold it to me at fourteen cents per pound." Zhang Kaiwen said with a smile.
"If you don't want to buy it, get out! Who cares if you buy it?" Cai Junze doesn't tolerate him!
"As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person. Cai Junze, you are a pork seller, and your attitude towards customers is not nice!" Zhang Kaiwen said with a smile.
He even deliberately emphasized the tone of voice when saying the three words "selling pork"!
Furious, Cai Junze brandished his knife and waved it in front of Zhang Kaiwen, his eyes fierce as he shouted, "Get out or not?"
"Why are you so fierce? Don't swing your knife at me!" Zhang Kaiwen looked fearless and smiled. "What business are you in if you can't stand being told off? Take your pork back and keep it for yourself!"
After a pause, he continued, "After all, you have studied in the academy for two years, yet you are so rude. You really don't deserve the teacher's teachings."
"Oh, that's right. If you were truly worthy of the teacher's teachings, you wouldn't have been expelled from the school, let alone selling pork here."
"Alas, you are only fit to sell pork."
"Well, selling pork is indeed suitable for you."
"hehe!"
"Zhang Kaiwen!" Cai Junze roared, "You're looking for death!"
Waving the knife, he was about to chop Zhang Kaiwen!
Seeing this, onlookers immediately came over and pulled him back!
Zhang Kaiwen took a few steps back, looked at Cai Junze, smiled, and said, "Cai Junze, it seems you've really wasted your time studying the sages' books. As the saying goes, a gentleman uses his words, not his fists. You're always wielding a knife to attack people. How can you be considered a scholar? And where does the law stand? It seems your expulsion from the academy was not without reason."
Cai Junze glared and angrily said, "So what if I was fired? So what if I sell pork? I don't like reading anyway! I'm not even a scholar! On the contrary, it's people like you who insult the identity of a scholar! Where did the word come from? Oh, scumbag! I'm talking about you!"
Zhang Kaiwen waved the folding fan in his hand and said, "I won't argue with you. Arguing with someone like you would be beneath my dignity. I originally wanted to help your business because we're classmates, but I didn't expect you to take my kindness for granted. Forget it, just sell pork. I won't argue with a pork seller, haha."
After saying that, he turned and left.
He looked like he was walking very easily.
Cai Junze was so angry, but there was nothing he could do. A bunch of people were pulling him back, persuading him to calm down and not be impulsive. He couldn't even go up and beat up that bastard Zhang Kaiwen.
In the end, he could only watch angrily as Zhang Kaiwen left in a leisurely manner.
Seeing Zhang Kaiwen walking away, everyone let him go and tried to persuade him again.
Cai Junze put down the knife and sat down, thinking about what had just happened. He became angrier and angrier. He even wanted to go home and not sell the pork.
I just started my business and haven’t even sold the meat yet, but I’ve already encountered something like this. What bad luck!
However, after thinking about it, Cai Junze suppressed the urge to go home directly.
Now that I'm here, I might as well go back without selling all the pork. Not only will my mother scold me when I go back, but it would also be a waste of my time carrying two heavy baskets of pork all the way to the county town.
