Gouwazi carried a big bag of copper coins and followed Ji Ming back to Zhang's house to count the copper coins.
Excluding costs, the total profit was 500 Wen.
"This is almost a 50/50 profit!" Gouwazi was very excited.
Ji Ming put all the money together and said, "Don't worry, I'll go to Mr. Jin's house tomorrow and prepare more money."
"Mr. Jin! Good, good, good!"
Gou Wa Zi was very excited. He put all the copper coins in his pocket and said, "I'm going to the chicken farm first and buy some eggs."
Jiming nodded.
The next day, the two arrived outside Mr. Jin's mansion.
Both of them packed up carefully before going out this time, and the servant was willing to talk to them for a few words.
Ji Ming stuffed a handful of copper coins in the bag. After hearing their purpose, the servant smiled and said, "Wait, I'll go ask the people in the backyard."
After the boy left, Gou Wa Zi asked, "Is it that simple?"
Ji Ming smiled and said, "In a place like this, it's useless to do those empty things. Money opens up a thousand roads, have you heard of it?"
The dog boy bowed in a serious manner and said, "I will teach you!"
After a while, the servant came out with a few people, including a middle-aged man with a fat face and a round waist. When Ji Ming saw this man, he ran up to him and saluted, "Greetings, Master!"
"Why do you think I'm a master?" asked the middle-aged man.
Ji Ming smiled and replied, "The ancients said that everyone has their own appearance. Some people are born with a face that looks like a rich man or a Buddha. Isn't that what they are talking about, sir?"
The middle-aged man laughed and said, "You are quite interesting, kid. I heard from Xiao Sanzi that someone was collecting old clothes, and I thought it was a little liar from somewhere, but I didn't expect it to be a sweet-talking guy."
Ji Ming also smiled and said, "With you here, who would dare to cheat you? The price of the used clothes we collect is a few copper coins higher than that of the pawnshop. I hope you will take care of me, sir."
"It's okay if it's a little higher. You can't keep losing money in business. You guys collect it here and I'll take a look and leave." After the middle-aged man said this, he stood aside and watched with a smile.
The middle-aged man had some aura about him, and Gou Wazi was frightened. He had to rely on Ji Ming who was quoting prices and joking around.
There were four people at first, and then more than ten people came one after another, all of them carrying their old clothes to exchange for some silver.
There were more people behind, and Gouwazi also imitated Ji Ming and started talking and laughing.
Seeing that Gou Wazi was fine on his own, Ji Ming took out a basket of eggs from the basket and handed it to the middle-aged man, saying, "Master, these are wild pheasant eggs raised by my grandmother. Please try them."
"Pheasant eggs? What are pheasant eggs?" the middle-aged man asked, looking at the ordinary eggs.
Ji Ming explained, "Chickens raised in the mountains are more lively than ordinary chickens. They will look for food on their own in the mountains. There are slight differences in taste, but they are more nutritious than ordinary eggs."
Hearing Ji Ming's serious words, the middle-aged man also became curious. Thinking of trying something new, he no longer refused and looked at Ji Ming with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
The servant next to them also heard what the two said, so he said, "Manager Xin, if these eggs are really that good, why not send some to the old lady so that the master won't have to worry all day long."
Speaking of the old lady, Manager Xin sighed heavily, "The old lady has always been weak, and this year happens to be the year of the Living Buddha, which is said to occur only once a hundred years, but I don't know if it's true or not. It's okay to worship Buddha and abstain from meat for a few days occasionally, but this time she has to abstain for a month, and she doesn't even want to eat eggs..."
Living Buddha Year...
Ji Ming listened quietly on the side until the clothes were collected. The two thanked the servant and Manager Xin before leaving.
