"Wait, I'll give you two dollars. I want this hare."
The sound came suddenly and everyone present was startled.
Qin Zijin turned his head when he heard the voice and saw a middle-aged man wearing a Zhongshan suit and gold-rimmed glasses, who looked gentle and refined standing there.
Noticing Qin Zijin's gaze, he just smiled at her politely, then continued, "Anyway, please buy me a wild rabbit. My wife loves rabbit meat."
"Mr. Yuan." Chen Dahai obviously knew the middle-aged man in front of him. After a brief surprise, he nodded and greeted the visitor.
Yuan Shichao just nodded and his eyes fell on Qin Zijin again, with a bit of urgency in his eyes.
"This..." Qin Zijin did not agree immediately, but looked at Chen Dahai.
Chen Dahai noticed Qin Zijin's hesitation and smiled. "Mr. Yuan is a regular customer here. He comes every day to ask if we have rabbit meat. His wife loves it. Unfortunately, there are very few people raising rabbits now, and even fewer people can catch wild rabbits and bring them here to sell."
"Madam, you can sell it to Mr. Yuan. He won't cheat you."
Qin Zijin finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what Chen Dahai said.
She was a person who cared a lot about fair trade, because she had initially agreed on a deal with Chen Dahai, but Yuan Shichao suddenly showed up and interrupted them.
As for the idea that the highest bidder wins, she didn't have such an idea.
After thinking for a moment, she spoke, "Mr. Yuan, right? Chef Chen and I have already agreed on the price, which is one dollar and eighty cents per pound. If you want it, it's the same price. But I can only give you one. The others are what Chef Chen wants."
"Okay, okay." Yuan Shichao was very happy to be able to buy it.
His wife has been bedridden for many years and has been ill for a long time. Her condition is getting worse and worse.
Because my wife is originally from Shu Prefecture, she especially loves to eat food like spicy rabbit head and has been talking about it for a long time.
Unfortunately, there were very few people selling rabbit meat in the town, and even fewer wild rabbits. He waited for more than half a year before he finally found someone selling it.
"I'll ask the waiter to get a scale." Chen Dahai turned and went into the kitchen and shouted. After a while, someone came out with a scale.
Several wild rabbits were weighed separately. Chen Dahai took two, which weighed a total of 15 kilograms, while Yuan Shichao's weighed 8 kilograms. The other pheasants weighed a total of 20 kilograms. Chen Dahai bought them all at the price of one yuan and eight cents.
"Eight jins, a total of fourteen dollars and fourteen cents." Qin Zijin glanced at the scale and quoted the price to Yuan Shichao.
Yuan Shichao directly took out a ten-yuan note and a five-yuan note and handed them to Qin Zijin. "No need for change, thank you."
Having said this, he hurried away carrying the hare.
Qin Zijin shook his head helplessly.
Chen Dahai went into the store to get the money. When he came out and saw that Yuan Shichao had left, he sighed, "Mr. Yuan is also a lovesick person."
"Oh? Brother Chen, what do you mean?" Miao Cuicui had dealt with Chen Dahai several times and was quite familiar with him. When she heard his words, she immediately became interested.
"He came to this town to work as an official, and his wife came with him. But his wife is not in good health and has been sick since she came. I have known him for more than half a year, and he asks me every day if I have rabbit meat, hoping to buy some because his wife loves it."
"I see that he has been in a bad mood recently. I'm afraid it's because his wife's condition is very serious. Alas, he is such a poor man." Seeing that Miao Cuicui was interested, Chen Dahai chatted with her for a few minutes.
"You are such a poor man. The doctors here are of limited quality. Alas." Miao Cuicui felt a little sympathy for Yuan Shichao and his wife and couldn't help but say something after hearing this.
Qin Zijin seemed to be thinking about something.
After she acquired the intermediate medical skills, she never used them once.
Cooking can earn points, which can be redeemed at the mall. But what about medical skills? If you successfully cure a patient, can you also earn points?
She was eager to try, but according to Chen Dahai, Yuan Shichao's wife should be very ill, and with her limited medical skills, she didn't know if she could cure her.
Shaking his head, Qin Zijin remembered that he had brought other things with him. Before Chen Dahai returned to the kitchen, he hurriedly said, "Chef Chen, I have some mushrooms and fungus that I collected from the mountains. Do you want to take them?"
"Oh? Then let me take a look first." Chen Dahai became interested and walked over.
Qin Zijin opened the sack.
It is filled with various fungi.
There are all kinds of mushrooms, even matsutake.
As an experienced chef, Chen Dahai naturally saw it at a glance.
"They are all good stuff, very good, I want them all. But some of your things are of high value, and some are of average value. Let's put it this way, this bag looks to me to be about ten pounds, I'll give you a hundred yuan and take them all." Chen Dahai touched his chin and then looked at Qin Zijin.
Qin Zijin thought for a moment and shook his head: "Chef Chen, I really want to sell it. My family is really short of money, otherwise I would not be willing to take out these good things. Apart from anything else, the matsutake mushrooms are good stuff. There are more than half a pound of them here, and they are all air-dried, so the value should be higher. Two hundred yuan, if you really want them, then take them all."
Chen Dahai didn't say anything after hearing this, but just thought about it seriously.
Finally, he nodded and said, "Okay, then let's do as you say. I'll consider it as making a friend of yours. If you have any good things in the future, remember to send them to me."
In addition to matsutake, there are several other types of mushrooms that are also very nutritious.
Although Qinghe Town is not very wealthy, there are still some rich people.
If he just packages these things casually, he can make ten times the price, so he won't lose money.
Qin Zijin was quite happy. She didn't expect to earn more than two hundred yuan in one go.
In the past, she didn’t feel anything when she earned tens of thousands of yuan a day, but now, making more than two hundred yuan made her feel proud and satisfied.
Miao Cuicui and Zhao Daniu on the side looked at each other in surprise.
After all, it’s more than two hundred, and they may need to work for a year to earn that much money.
Chen Dahai quickly went to get the money.
The pheasants and rabbits added up to sixty-three, and the various mushrooms and fungus added up to two hundred. He also gave an integer, two hundred and sixty-five.
Qin Zijin held the thick stack of money and felt a little touched.
"Zijin, why are you still standing there like an idiot? Hurry up and put the money away. There are so many people in this market, don't let anyone steal it. Da Niu and I are going to buy something. Do you want to come with us or walk around by yourself?" Miao Cuicui saw Qin Zijin standing there in a daze with the money in his hand, and quickly reminded her.
