Chapter 64 Eighty taels of silver
Gu Yundong greeted him with some anticipation, "All sold?"
The two of them were standing at the door of the kitchen. There was a shadow under the eaves. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to see clearly that there were two people standing here.
What Shao Qingyuan took out was a silver ingot, "The two wild boars sold for a total of 80 taels of silver. The price of a domestic pig in the county is 18 cents a pound, and a wild boar is much more expensive, 80 cents. The smaller wild boar is 300 cents. Thirty pounds, I sold it to the restaurant, the shopkeeper there knew me, and the pheasant, I asked him for thirty taels. The big one was favored by a wealthy young master, and he was generous and gave it directly. Fifty taels. A total of eighty taels, here are your forty taels, you take them."
Gu Yundong knew that wild boars were expensive, but he didn't expect to have forty taels in one breath.
No, no, no, is it not good to take forty taels from others?
She stared at the ingot-like silver, tried her best to restrain herself, and said very scrupulously, "You beat both wild boars, so I just helped you. Besides, you paid the wages for asking the villagers to help pull the wild boars to the county seat. I'll have enough hard money."
She had heard in the afternoon that Shao Qingyuan had asked a few strong laborers from the village to help pull the wild boar, and of course he had to pay money. His reputation in the village is really not very good, and these people would not have contact with him at all if it was not for money.
But two wild boars of this size were pulled down the mountain, which still caused a sensation in the village. Many people wanted to come up and say a few words but were afraid of him, so they could only greedily follow the scooter pulling the wild boar for a long time.
Looking back, I was still talking in the village with relish, wondering how much this wild boar could sell for.
However, Shao Qingyuan looked at her radiant eyes and laughed secretly, her eyes clearly wanting money, "It was agreed that half of one person is half of one person. The salary is only one or two silver, you gave me one. Pheasant, it's even, you take this money, I don't want to be a person who doesn't believe what he says."
Gu Yundong nodded solemnly, "In order not to make you a villain who goes back on your word, I will accept this money."
Shao Qingyuan, "..." So thank you too?
Gu Yundong was holding the silver, but he was overjoyed. A gentleman like Shao Qingyuan, the more the better in the future, he can still cooperate in the future, where is the wolf cub, it is clear that a good person has a safe life.
Now that he has money to build a house, Gu Yundong is happy and asks casually, "You just came back from the county now? Have you eaten dinner?"
"I didn't eat."
Gu Yundong made an 'oh', as if she didn't hear what he said at all. It wasn't until he turned around and entered the kitchen that she suddenly came back to her senses and looked at his back in astonishment, "Uh...what are you doing?"
"Aren't you going to keep me for dinner?" Shao Qingyuan looked like "If not, why do you ask me about whether I have eaten or not".
Gu Yundong looked at him, then looked at the silver in his arms, and said with certainty, "Of course, you have worked so hard, you should have a meal."
Gu Yundong followed him into the kitchen, "The dishes are a little cold, I'll scramble an egg and fried rice for you, that's fast."
"Okay." Shao Qingyuan sat on the stool and watched her deftly beat eggs and serve rice. With a 'thorn' sound, the aroma suddenly wafted out, filling the entire kitchen.
Inexplicably, this smell made Shao Qingyuan feel stable.
