Chapter 17 Big Buy!

The eldest brother's expression suddenly changed, and he immediately yelled: "Hey! How could you do this? I was still bargaining, how could you buy it directly without me?"

"How did I pass you? I didn't say anything when you were holding the rabbit?"

Unexpectedly, the one who was quick to act was a woman, a woman who was wearing black clothes and black pants, with half of her face hidden in a hat, and was very eloquent. "I asked to buy the rabbit after you put it down. Is that okay? Besides, they asked for 5 yuan and you said it was too expensive, so you two did not reach a consensus. They were unwilling to sell it to you, so they naturally thought that the money you gave was not enough. I gave 5 yuan, how can it be considered that I bought the rabbit over you?"

"How can you calculate like that?"

The eldest brother was anxious and angry.

He didn't want it, he was clearly using Qiao to hope that Huang Xinran could get a lower price. But he didn't expect that such a Cheng Yaojin would appear halfway.

"I want this rabbit! Let go!"

As he said this, he was about to rob.

The woman was quick. She waved her hand and dodged the man's hand. Then she stuffed the money into Huang Xinran's hand and said, "I'm the one buying it now. How dare you snatch it away? Here, take it! I'll take this rabbit!"

"This……"

Huang Xinran smiled apologetically and waved the five yuan towards his brother.

The eldest brother's face turned black with anger.

"You, you...you just wait and see! Humph~~~" After saying that, he walked away cursing.

"This person has no quality!"

The woman snorted and stuffed the rabbit into the cloth bag she brought with her. Just as she was about to leave, Huang Xin called her back.

"I have some good stuff here, do you want some?"

“I’m not going to buy groceries today…”

The woman said casually, her eyes widened as she glanced at the cloth Huang Xinran had pulled open, revealing the things in the bamboo basket, "What is this...?"

“Good stuff.”

Huang Xinran smiled mysteriously: "My relatives brought this from far away by train. It's a good thing! It's specially used to replenish my mother-in-law's blood. In view of the good luck you brought me in opening my business, I'll give you a discount. This is the amount in the basket." She stretched out her hand and shook it in front of the other person, then quickly closed the bamboo basket again.

The other party took a breath of cool air.

It seemed like he was very confused, but he was reluctant to give up. While hesitating, he couldn't help but have some more thoughts: "Let me take a look... Can you let me taste it?"

"become!"

Huang Xinran covered her face and handed her one.

Unlike the little finger-sized cherries out there, the one in her hand was three times the usual size, with a strong fragrance that filled her nose, a perfect cherry shape, and bright red flesh, looking juicy and tempting.

It is so beautiful that it looks like a work of art. I can’t bear to eat it.

She suppressed her heartache and carefully put it into her mouth. With a light bite, the unique sweet aroma of cherry exploded between her lips and teeth. A stream of juice rushed into her stomach and a warm current quickly rose up, making her feel warm all over.

"How many of these do you have left?"

It’s not that you don’t know the goods, it’s that you compare the goods.

Not to mention that the cherries are not yet ripe, just based on the size, taste, and appearance of the fruit... she has to buy it!

The woman was very excited.

She was not from the steel plant. She was here just to visit relatives. Her visit was purely a coincidence. Her father had received an order from his superiors to entertain the distinguished guests who came to the mainland for inspection. Her mother had already informed the butcher in advance, and the butcher agreed to it at first. Unexpectedly, this morning, the butcher called her to tell her that there were no live pigs slaughtered recently, which made her initial preparations go down the drain.

The mother was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot on the other end of the phone. Just when she was at a loss, a relative told her that there was a morning market outside the steel factory. She hurried over and unexpectedly found a surprise!

I thought it was rare to be able to buy a wild rabbit, but I didn’t expect to come across such good cherries. It was like a godsend!

She didn't care about the price and asked the quantity immediately. She made up her mind that she would get these fruits no matter what.

"How much do you want?"

Huang Xinran was also stunned. He didn't expect the other party to ask about the quantity right away.

"No matter how much you have, I want it all!"

The woman was very anxious and kept urging him, "Just come and buy at the price you said. I want all of them!"

Huang Xinran was very hesitant. "Honey, I'm afraid you didn't see it clearly. I just said that such a small basket is 5 yuan..."

"Alright, alright! Just follow this price for whatever you have."

The woman was very impatient and kept urging him.

It's a big deal!

Huang Xinran was naturally very happy to be able to sell all the cherries at once.

I weighed the cherries in the basket and it was 2.8 jin. A basket of cherries weighs 50 to 60 jin. The total weight was 102.67 yuan.

"There are 57 jin and 8 liang of meat here, which is 103.21 yuan. I won't take the change, just give me 100 yuan."

Huang Xinran can do mental arithmetic very quickly, thanks to the skills she acquired while working for others in her previous life when she was suffering. "And this small basket of fruit is for you!"

Huang Xinran did not pour the cherries that had been taken out of the bamboo basket into the basket for weighing. Instead, he gave them directly to the woman.

"Don't worry, I still have this little money."

The woman was obviously wealthy and generous. She took out a large stack of banknotes from her pocket, counted them quickly and handed them to her. "Here, take it!"

Huang Xinran took it and found that there was one more.

"You counted wrong. You said you would give me 100 yuan, but you gave me 110 yuan. I'll give you the extra one."

"Not much, just 11. I can't let you lose money."

The woman waved her hands and said, "But I'm not giving you this one for free. You have to take this bag to the staff dormitory. I have something else to do here, so I can't go back soon. When you get there, hand it over to a man named Liang Wei. If anyone asks, just say you're Liang Wei's friend."

In fact, you can also come directly to the factory gate to load the goods. However, this will make it easy for people to spot you.

After a moment's thought, the woman decided to avoid everyone's sight.

"Okay, no problem!"

It was just a delivery, and it was to the workers' dormitory of the steel plant, which was not far away, so she agreed immediately.

After the woman left in a hurry, Huang Xinran packed up his things, picked up his shoulder pole and hurried to the staff dormitory.

It was just past six o'clock and the sky had not yet completely brightened.

Huang Xinran hurried to the door of the staff dormitory with his bag on his shoulder, but was stopped by the gatekeeper: "Who are you? Who are you looking for?"

"Master, I'm here to see Liang Wei. I'm a relative of his and I'm here to visit!"

Huang Xinran smiled hurriedly and wanted to take something, but she had nothing in her basket except the cherries that had been sold, so she could only laugh dryly.

"Relative?"

The master's eyes were like searchlights as he looked her over and over: "Even relatives are not allowed. You must register. You can only enter after you register."

Okay, let’s register.

When Huang Xinran arrived at the residence where the woman stayed, he found that it was actually a single-family house with a small courtyard.
