Chapter 74 Selling Mushrooms Together



That shouldn't be the case. She was sitting on the back seat of the car, and she was riding in the wind all the way.

Well, maybe the basket of mushrooms is too heavy.

Feng Anchen finally got off the bicycle, casually put it aside, and took the mushroom basket on Shen Mingxi's back without saying a word.

It is indeed very heavy.

He strode towards the hotel entrance.

Shen Mingxi was still a little dazed. He didn't expect that the basket on his back was suddenly snatched away by Feng Anchen, who was holding it in his hand easily.

Noticing that the person behind him didn't follow him, Feng Anchen turned around and said impatiently, "Why are you in a daze? You don't want to sell mushrooms anymore?"

Shen Mingxi finally reacted and took a few quick steps to stand next to Feng Anchen. Feng Anchen was quite tall, so Shen Mingxi had to look up to meet his eyes. "Feng Anchen, you must have something to do in the county. Go and do your thing. Thank you for today."

But Feng Anchen seemed not to have heard her words. Carrying the basket of mushrooms, he saw Shen Mingxi had caught up with him, and then he strode into the restaurant, pushing the door open.

Shen Mingxi had no choice but to follow.

Logically speaking, she and Feng Anchen had only met a few times, but she had someone drive her to the county town, help her find a restaurant, and help her carry the mushroom basket. So, he was going to help her sell mushrooms next? A trace of confusion flashed in her eyes, but Shen Mingxi still quickly followed Feng Anchen into the restaurant.

After all, the mushroom basket is in someone else's hand.

Maybe it’s because this pair of boys and girls standing together give people a pleasing, quiet and beautiful feeling, or maybe it’s because Feng Anchen’s temperament is different from others.

The restaurant owner was a mushroom collector, so he didn't make things difficult for them and accepted the entire basket of mushrooms based on the price offered in the past few days.

A basket of mushrooms weighs 58 kilograms. Prices are low nowadays, and a kilogram of mushrooms costs only 0.2 yuan.

Of course, this is already the highest price, because this is a rare treasure, and the restaurant owner naturally knows the value of it.

The boss gave Shen Mingxi eleven dollars and sixty cents.

There was no rounding off, and no extra money was given. It was a very normal transaction.

"Boss, I still have some at home, do you want some?"

The female boss looked at the sky outside and was a little worried. "I have harvested a lot of mushrooms these days. To be honest, if your mushrooms were not good, I really would not want them. Look at this weather, they can't even be dried in the sun. If we can't eat them, they will rot."

This is the weather I hate the most in this season.

It would be okay if there was a heavy rainstorm, because the sky would clear up soon. On the contrary, the weather like this would not clear up for a while.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, boss."

The practice of calling these private business owners bosses only became popular this year.

The female boss naturally smiled happily as she looked at the attractive boys and girls in front of her.

But I was thinking about it in my heart.

It is obvious that they are not from the same family because one is dressed very well and the other is dressed very ordinary.

Not to mention anything else, just the belt around the boy's waist must be worth about a hundred yuan.

Watching the boy and girl leave the restaurant, she turned around and told the waiter to start sorting out the thunder nests that had just been collected.

At the entrance of the hotel, Shen Mingxi's backpack was empty.

"Feng Anchen, thank you for today. I'm sorry to have delayed your work."

"What are you going to do now?" Feng Anchen glanced at Shen Mingxi.

"I want to go to the West Market for a walk." Shen Mingxi answered honestly.

Feng Anchen expressed his satisfaction.

Now Shen Mingxi's speaking attitude is a little different from before.

"I'm going to the post office. When you come back from West Market, wait for me at the post office entrance and I'll take you back."

"I don't eat in the county town. If you come here once, won't you go to the restaurant?"

Of course she knew that Feng Anchen and Li Qing often went to the restaurant to improve their meals.

"I won't eat at the restaurant anymore. The hygiene is too bad." The handsome boy looked at Shen Mingxi with disdain and said, "There are still half of the mushrooms that Goudan sent yesterday. Third Grandma said to stir-fry them with pork belly for lunch."

Shen Mingxi smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you at the post office later."

As he spoke, Shen Mingxi turned around with the empty basket on his back and walked quickly towards the West Market.

The young man's dark and deep gaze fell on the pretty figure, and he involuntarily recalled the day in the county hospital when this little girl directed everything in an orderly manner.

I also remembered the handkerchief.

He straightened his back, coughed a few times to cover up his cough, then pedaled his bike quickly towards the post office.

Shen Mingxi quickly arrived at the West Market.

Today is market day, and early in the morning, many people come here with vegetables and mountain products to sell.

Now is the time when policies are just beginning to improve.

But the vegetables you grow really don’t make much money.

After all, it is an agricultural county town. Even among the residents living in the county town, in addition to those who live in high-rise buildings, there are many who live in bungalows, and there are vegetable gardens in front and behind the houses.

Shen Mingxi also saw that there were more than a dozen people selling mushrooms.

I asked about the price, and maybe because of the weather, some mushrooms were only 5 cents per pound.

Many of them are fresh grass mushrooms, which are the easiest to weigh, so even though they look like a pile, they can’t be sold for much money.

Shen Mingxi frowned slightly, thinking to himself, what should he do with the mushrooms at home if he can't bring all of them into the space?

Then I saw a few small wooden barrels placed in a corner on the westernmost side. After asking, I found out that they were filled with soybean oil squeezed by their own family.

It comes in a five-jin package, and one jin of soybean oil costs one yuan. No food coupons are required.

Shen Mingxi knew that a pound of soybean oil cost 80 cents in the grain store, and that soybeans would be distributed after the autumn harvest in Kaoshantun, and then he could go to the oil mill to squeeze soybean oil.

And even though this small wooden barrel is homemade, it still costs fifty cents each.

The Shen family does have soybean oil, but if they want to get it from Old Lady Shen, there will inevitably be another big quarrel.

Moreover, the idea that Shen Mingxi had just seen when he saw the soybean oil barrel could not be known to Old Mrs. Shen.

She used to work in a restaurant in her previous life.

There is an old chef there who is a very good cook.

The mushroom sauce made by the old chef is very famous.

And this is the solution Shen Mingxi came up with just now.

There are still three baskets of fresh mushrooms at home. If sold at today's price, they can still be sold for more than 30 yuan. However, there are not many people selling mushrooms now. She just passed by two restaurants and after asking, she found out that in such weather, the shops would not buy mushrooms.

And if the sky doesn't clear up tomorrow, all her mushrooms will rot.

Although Shen Mingxi can find countless reasons and excuses and put them in the space, they will have to be dealt with sooner or later.

And at the moment, she is still very short of money.

Although her family background is not good, it doesn't mean she has no knowledge.

She also learned a lot during the five years she lived in the capital.

Dear babies, thank you for your support and encouragement. I love you~~~      (End of this chapter)
