The happy little days of the Ye family

Chapter 747 Selling Wild Geese

It took two hours to go to Xiaohe Town. Tang Xiaojing woke up before dawn.

After getting up gently, Tang Xiaojing covered Ye Qingqing with a quilt and kissed her forehead gently.

"Go on to sleep and wait at home for me to come back."

Then get dressed and go out to wash up.

Pushing open the door, Dahuang was lying on the doorstep, sleeping soundly.

Dahuang woke up after hearing the noise, but did not get up after smelling a familiar smell and continued to lie on the ground.

Dahuang lazily glanced at Tang Xiaojing with half-closed eyes, and then continued to sleep.

When passing by, Tang Xiaojing gently patted Dahuang's furry head with evil intentions.

"You lazy dog, you just know how to sleep."

Dahuang was woken up again and bared his teeth impatiently at Tang Xiaojing.

Seeing that Dahuang was angry, Tang Xiaojing quickly ran away.

Tang Xiaojing was in a hurry to go out and there was no time to make breakfast today.

He made an agreement with Ye Qingqing last night and asked her to go back to Ye's house for breakfast.

As for Tangshan, Tang Xiaojing is not worried at all. There are many delicious breakfasts in the town.

After cleaning himself up, Tang Xiaojing came to the backyard holding a torch. At this time, several pairs of geese in the cage were still sleeping.

These five pairs of wild geese are fed and housed well every day at Tang's house. They are very chubby and round and look very happy.

The geese want to be sold one by one, so Tang Xiaojing specially asked craftsmen in the village to make five small and exquisite bamboo cages a few days ago.

The geese at home are all placed in cages in pairs.

Tang Xiaojing moved all the five small cages containing the geese onto the oxcart, and then brought a small bag of corn kernels to these little ancestors.

After putting everything away, the sky was already gray.

Seeing that it was getting late, Tang Xiaojing hurriedly set off for Xiaohe Town.

The whole road to Xiaohe Town was on official roads, and there was no cargo on the oxcart. Tang Xiaojing drove the oxcart very quickly and arrived in more than an hour.

The official road on the edge of Xiaohe Town extends in all directions, and you can go to several other provincial capitals through the official road, so merchants from all over the world gather here.

And everything from all over the country can be found here.

As soon as he arrived in Xiaohe Town, Tang Xiaojing went straight to the busiest East Street.

Although Tang Xiaojing got up in the middle of the night, it was a long way and it was already a little late when he arrived at East Street.

It is now past the Lantern Festival, and most of the merchants have come to do business. At this time, the East Street is very lively.

The street is bustling with people, and there are almost endless shops and stalls on both sides.

The merchants from the north haven't arrived yet, so there are still some vacant stalls on the street.

It was already too late anyway, and Tang Xiaojing was not in a hurry to set up a stall. He planned to take a walk on East Street first and inquire about the current price of wild geese.

Not long after I left, I saw a hunter selling wild geese.

The man brought two pairs of geese over. The geese in the cage had their wings injured by bows and arrows, and they looked sick and not very energetic.

The four wild geese were all crowded into a large cage. They looked very pitiful, far worse than the wild geese brought here by Tang Xiaojing.

These little ancestors in Tang Xiaojing's hands have been well fed and served during this period of time, and they have become fat and healthy, and they look very good.

Thinking of the plump wild geese he brought home, Tang Xiaojing's confidence greatly increased.

And they are all kept alone in pairs in exquisite small cages, which looks very cute.

Tang Xiaojing stepped forward to inquire about the high price of wild geese, and found that it was still the same as before, 5 taels of silver per pair.

Tang Xiaojing thought to himself, these sick geese cost 5 taels of silver per pair, but the energetic geese he brought could be sold for 5 taels and 5 coins, right?

So Tang Xiaojing planned to price his wild geese at 5 taels and 5 cents.

On the way, Tang Xiaojing whispered again:

"People who buy wild geese must bargain, or else they should ask for 5 taels and 6 yuan, and then take a step back and sell them for 5 taels and 5 yuan."

In addition to the wild geese, Tang Xiaojing also paid special attention to the leather stalls.

There are not many leathers at this time, and most of them are of poor quality. They look like they were left over from sales years ago.

Tang Xiaojing inquired about the price. Compared with when he came here in the summer, the price was about [-]% lower.

But come to think of it, spring is about to begin, and there is no need for leather jackets now. If you buy it now, you will have to wait until after the summer harvest to sell it.

In this way, all the money on hand is spent on these leathers, and ordinary merchants are not willing to buy leathers at this time.

Tang Xiaojing thought that it was a good thing that Tang didn't bring his leather jacket, otherwise it would have been in vain again.

The East Street was really too long. Tang Xiaojing only saw a third of it before he hurried back to the street and found someone renting a stall to rent a small stall.

There are many people on East Street, and the stall fee is also more expensive. It costs 12 cents for a stall.

But now that I have come, I am not short of the 12 cents. Tang Xiaojing readily took out the money and exchanged it for a small sign specially used for setting up a stall.

Tang Xiaojing arrived relatively late, but fortunately the merchants from the north had not arrived yet, and there were still many stalls on the street.

However, the good positions have long been picked out, leaving only some corner positions.

Tang Xiaojing took a position in the middle of East Street, and then lined up the wild geese on the bullock cart and placed them all on the stall.

There are a few good days this month. Not long after Tang Xiaojing's wild geese were placed, someone came forward to ask.

What came was a young man about the same age as Ye Xilin. He was always in high spirits during happy events. This man looked beaming with joy.

"Boss, how do you sell wild geese?"

Seeing a customer coming to the door, Tang Xiaojing's face lit up, "Hello, sir, the wild geese on the stall cost 5 taels and 6 yuan a pair."

The young man had already made up his mind to buy wild geese from Tang Xiaojing, but he became confused when he heard that the price was 5 taels and 6 yuan.

"Other people's wild geese only cost 5 taels of silver. Why do you need 5 taels and 6 coins?"

Tang Xiaojing has spent a lot of time in Ye's house, and he talks a lot about doing business.

"I caught these wild geese using the methods passed down from my ancestors, and it took a lot of effort to catch them. There are no injuries on their bodies at all. Look at how energetic they all are. They look decent enough to be hired."

Tang Xiaojing casually picked up a pair of wild geese and showed them to the man.

The man looked at the wild geese and was quite satisfied. "They look very energetic. I want this pair of geese for 5 taels of silver."

Tang Xiaojing quickly shook his head and said with an embarrassed look:

"Young master, I really can't sell it for 5 taels of silver. My wife has set the price. If the money is short, I won't be able to pay the difference. If you buy it sincerely, I will give you 5 taels and 5 yuan."

The man was also a good bargainer and immediately said:

"This wild goose was born and raised by nature. You don't need capital. Five taels of silver is enough. Don't be too greedy."

Tang Xiaojing saw the young man dressed decently, but he didn't expect to be so fussy.

"Who says it doesn't cost money? I worked hard to catch these pairs of wild geese, and I also lost some things during the process."

"I think my eldest brother is also a respectable and wealthy man, and he is not short of these few hundred coins. My wild goose is much more energetic than the other wild geese on the street, and he is also bigger. It will be more respectable to take him with me when the time comes. ."

The man thought that he would soon be employed in his sweetheart's house, and his face was filled with a smile.

In the end, I spent the 5 taels and 5 dollars to pick a pair of wild geese that looked the most energetic.

"Congratulations to the young master for getting a beautiful woman back home as soon as possible, and we will grow old together, and you will have two in three years."

After receiving the money, Tang Xiaojing said nice things as if he didn't need any money.

"Bless you!"

Thinking of his sweetheart, the man carried the wild goose away with his face glowing red.
