Chapter 497 Buying Beef (Part 2)
"Are you sure you want to buy the bull head?" Lu Xiaoxiao said after hearing her second sister's words and looked at the bull head not far away.
"Um."
After hearing the second sister's answer, Lu Xiaoxiao said, "The bull's head is very difficult to handle. Look, it's all hairy."
"Although the cow head is difficult to process, it has a lot of meat, and the bones can be used to make soup. The most important thing is that it is cheap." The second sister said after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said.
"That's true, but you have to act quickly, or someone else will snatch it away."
"No one is competing with me, don't worry."
"Why? Didn't you say that the meat in the cow's head is plentiful and the price is cheap?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked her second sister with a puzzled look on her face.
"I did say that, but there is a premise I forgot to mention just now."
"What premise?"
"The prerequisite is that the person who buys the cow head must have someone at home who can handle the hair on the cow head. If not, they can only peel off the skin after buying the cow head. But if the cow head is without the skin, there is actually not much meat left, so it is not cost-effective for them to buy the cow head."
After hearing what her second sister said, Lu Xiaoxiao nodded, and then she said to her second sister: "Your father knows how to deal with the hair on the cow's head."
"Yes, my grandma used to be a bit of a bargain hunter and always bought the pig's head from the village. Then she asked my dad to deal with the hair on the pig's head. That's how my dad developed his skills."
"Then you have to thank your grandma. If it weren't for her, your dad wouldn't have been able to master this skill." Lu Xiaoxiao said jokingly to her second sister.
"Hehe...actually sometimes I am really grateful to my grandma. If she hadn't been so harsh on our family, we really wouldn't have learned so many things." The second sister said with emotion when she heard Lu Xiaoxiao's words.
"Second sister, they've already started selling beef over there, let's go over there quickly." As soon as Lu Xiaoxiao heard what her second sister said, she saw that beef was already being sold over there, so she immediately said to her second sister.
"good."
When Lu Xiaoxiao and her second sister arrived at the place where beef was sold, they saw more than a dozen people queuing in front of them, so she and her second sister stood at the back of the line.
"Which piece of meat do you want?" When it was Lu Xiaoxiao's turn to buy meat, the butcher Chen asked Lu Xiaoxiao.
"I want three beef ribs and two pounds of beef hind leg meat." Lu Xiaoxiao said after hearing what Chen the butcher said.
"Five dollars in total." Butcher Chen said to Lu Xiaoxiao after weighing the meat.
After hearing what Chen the Butcher said, Lu Xiaoxiao took out five dollars from her pocket and handed it to Chen the Butcher, then stood aside with the meat waiting for her second sister.
"Which cut of meat do you want?"
"I want the cow's head." The second sister said after hearing what Chen the butcher said.
"Did your family ask you to buy it?" Butcher Chen asked her after hearing what the second sister said.
"yes."
"The ox head is two dollars each, and I'll give you two ox hooves as well." Chen the butcher said after hearing what the second sister said.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome. Normally no one buys this thing, so you're doing us a favor by buying it."
"Here are two dollars." After hearing what Chen the Butcher said, the second sister smiled and took the money out of her pocket and handed it to Chen the Butcher.
"Bring the backpack here, I'll help you put the cow's head in it." Butcher Chen said to the second sister after taking the money handed to her by the second sister.
"good."
"Second sister, do you want to put the cow's hooves in my backpack?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked the second sister after they left Hongxing Village.
"No, I can still carry this little stuff."
After hearing what her second sister said, Lu Xiaoxiao saw that she could really carry the cow's hoof, so she didn't ask her second sister to let her carry the cow's hoof.
