One hundred catties of eggplant and one hundred catties of cucumber, both at 15 cents a catty, that's thirty yuan.
You have 30 jin of tomatoes, and you have 20 jin extra, so I'll take those too.
That's fifty jin (25 kg). A jin of tomatoes costs two mao (0.2 yuan), so that's ten yuan.
Fifty catties of eggs, at one yuan and twenty cents per catty, that's sixty yuan.
That's one hundred yuan. You said you wanted it three yuan less, so it's ninety-seven yuan.
In addition, I bought one of your flatfish. The flatfish weighed two and a half pounds, which was two yuan per pound, or four yuan and sixty cents.
I'm going to give you 101.6 yuan.
Is that right?
Minister Wang quickly fiddled with the abacus and calculated the price.
"Minister Wang, your calculations are correct."
"For the vegetables, give me 97 yuan. The flatfish will be two jin, so give me four yuan. That means the total is 101 yuan."
Yu Chengyuan voluntarily gave up 60 cents of profit.
Since he took all the extra tomatoes, I'll be generous too.
"Okay, here's your score of 101. Keep it up, young man."
This is the list for tomorrow. No tomatoes needed tomorrow, 30 catties each of green and red peppers, and replace eggplants with green beans. Also, give me another 20 catties of chives.
Everything else remains the same; that's how it will be tomorrow.
This guy knows how to get along with people, so he's happy to do him a favor.
It's convenient for others and convenient for yourself.
"Okay, Minister Wang, I'll be going now. I still need to go to the school cafeteria."
Yu Chengyuan put away the list, not wanting to waste any more time.
Minister Wang nodded, looking at the fresh flatfish, thinking of steaming it for his wife.
