So, the pigeon market started! Under the guise of exchanging goods, they actually negotiated a price, and took advantage of the fact that there were no red armbands to trade.
So here, people are very magical when it comes to indicating prices! They just use hand gestures and don’t need to speak at all.
When Ye Zhiqiu thought of this, he found a sign that said "wild rabbits for exchange" and squatted down. The stall owner quickly gestured out the price.
He first held a handful of rabbit hair in his right hand and retracted his thumb, so that the four fingers represented four yuan. After a pause, he retracted the four fingers and bent his thumb, which represented six cents.
He bid four dollars and sixty cents for a rabbit with fur. Then he turned the hand holding the fur over and made a three-dollar gesture with his left hand.
After finding out the price, Ye Zhiqiu was not going to buy it, so he looked disappointed, shook his head, and got up to leave.
The stall owner didn't mind. After all, at the end of the day, those who asked about the price were the ones he needed to deal with.
Ye Zhiqiu then went around asking prices. A laying hen was three yuan, while a non-laying rooster was two and a half yuan. The rice seller asked for forty cents a pound, but you could bargain for that.
Bargaining is also fun. If you think the stall owner's price is too high, you can shake hands with him and then make your own bid. If the stall owner thinks it is too low, he will also shake hands with you and make a new offer.
The whole process is silent, and the transaction is completed in this way, which makes everyone safe. Moreover, the people who come to set up stalls are very smart and often carry some things with them. If someone catches them and accuses them of speculation, they will take out the things and say that they exchanged their own things for them.
