Chapter 47 Vegetable Market
"Be careful." Yan Zhiyi pulled Luo Xiao to his side.
Luo Xiao then realized that he had been so absorbed in looking at the vegetable market that he hadn't noticed someone passing by with a cart of vegetables.
"Thank you. If you hadn't pulled me, I would have gotten caught up with that cart of vegetables. Brother Yan, I've already picked out some cucumbers. Let's go buy some." Luo Xiao pointed to the place he had just picked out.
The cucumbers were very fresh. Some of them still had remnants of the receptacle at the tail, and the surface of the cucumbers was covered with a layer of fine white thorns, all of which showed that the cucumbers were very fresh and had been picked not long ago.
The one selling cucumbers was a big lady. There were a lot of cucumbers next to her and the sign next to her had the words "retail and wholesale" written on it in big letters.
Luo Xiao took Yan Zhiyi over.
"Young man, would you like to buy some cucumbers? My husband picked them before dawn, so they are very fresh. Do you want to buy some? They are delicious when it is hot and served cold or in soup. They can also be paired with pork or eggs. They are refreshing and delicious no matter how you cook them. Would you like some?" When the eldest sister saw Luo Xiao coming to the stall, she greeted him warmly, regardless of whether he was buying cucumbers or not.
"Sister, what's the wholesale price? What can I use to install it?" Luo Xiao went straight to the point.
"Would you like some? What? You want to wholesale? You don't even have a cart for wholesale?!" The eldest sister was a little surprised, but when she looked at Luo Xiao's age and the tall figure next to him, she could tell that he was out of place in their vegetable market.
After seeing this, she understood why these two people were not fully prepared.
"Did you drive here? If you do, I can help you load the cucumbers into your car. The wholesale price is 45 cents per pound. How much do you want?" the elder sister said to Luo Xiao.
Luo Xiao thought about it. When he was making the pickled cucumbers, Yan Zhiyi would also be there. It would be inconvenient for him to mix some cucumbers grown in the space into the pickled cucumbers. Therefore, he had to buy a few more cucumbers at the vegetable market at one time to make the pickled cucumbers.
So she said, "Sister, I need 200 kilograms. Please weigh it for me. Our car is in the north parking lot. Please use your cart to pull it over for us." Luo Xiao said.
"It's no trouble. Two hundred kilograms is fine. But I don't seem to have that much. Can you wait for me? I'll ask where my husband is. He's gone to pick cucumbers, and he'll send them to me." The eldest sister said to Luo Xiao, and her words were very sincere.
"Sure, sister, are the cucumbers grown by your family?" Luo Xiao asked.
"Yes, I grow them myself. My parents-in-law help me. This year I planted more than ten acres of cucumbers." The eldest sister said happily, and then she started making a phone call in front of them.
Yan Zhiyi felt a little uncomfortable. All kinds of smells from the vegetable market hit him in the face, especially from the meat stalls and the seafood stalls. The fishy smell mixed with the stink and the smell of disinfectant made the smell of this vegetable market extremely bad.
Luo Xiao noticed his discomfort.
"I told you before that I didn't need you to accompany me, but you insisted on coming to see it. Now that you've seen it, you must be uncomfortable with it," Luo Xiao teased him.
He laughed heartily, and Yan Zhiyi touched his nose.
"It's okay. This is my first time here and I didn't expect it to be like this." Yan Zhiyi said.
Luo Xiao listened to his words and thought of something.
That's right, people like him are the kind of wealthy noblemen who are said to be so busy with their work that they don't care about worldly matters. It is estimated that he has hardly been to a department store or supermarket many times, let alone a vegetable market that looks a bit dirty and messy overall.
"The environment in department stores is better, but in terms of the freshness of vegetables, the vegetable market is still fresher." Luo Xiao explained to him why he chose the vegetable market, otherwise he was afraid that the other party would think that he brought him here on purpose for bad taste.
"I've learned a lot. It turns out there are so many tricks to buying groceries. Xiaoxiao and I will learn from you in the future." Yan Zhiyi said.
"Why are you learning this? Stand aside and don't disturb my business." Luo Xiao said to him, and directly and naturally grabbed his elbow and pulled him aside.
The lady selling cucumbers has welcomed her business, her goods are good and there are many people with good vision.
Yan Zhiyi's arm was pulled by him through the long sleeves of his white shirt, but the process was very short and the other party let go. Through the thin fabric, he could feel the slightly cool body temperature of Luo Xiao's hand.
"Hey, what are you daydreaming about?" Luo Xiao poked his arm with his hand.
"No, I was just wondering why your hands are cold. It's so hot, and your hands are a little chilly." After Yan Zhiyi said this, he held Luo Xiao's hand with one hand.
Only when he really touched Luo Xiao's hand did he feel that his hot palm was indeed cold.
Luo Xiao was touched by his hot palm, and feeling that his palm was hot, he quickly pulled his hand away.
He didn't think there was anything wrong with it because Cheng Chen had been curious about this question before.
Luo Xiao knew his own situation. He was the same in his previous life. His hands would easily become cold in summer or winter, and he was particularly afraid of the cold in winter.
In this life, it remains the same.
"It's natural, Brother Yan. Your hands are too hot. Let go of my hand. My hands are not for you to cool down." Luo Xiao pulled his hand away.
Before Yan Zhiyi could say anything, he was interrupted.
It turned out that the lady selling cucumbers said that her husband had parked the truck carrying cucumbers in the same parking lot as Luo Xiao and his friends. The lady told them to go there and weigh the cucumbers directly.
She was also worried that Luo Xiao and the others wouldn't be able to find it, so she greeted the owner of the stall next door and asked him to help look after the stall, then she took Luo Xiao and the others out.
The two of them naturally followed the eldest sister's pace.
