It's hard for my elder sister. I rely on the mountains to farm and pay off my debts.

Song Zhi nodded: "If you are willing to sell it to me at the original price, then I will take all these mung beans."

When the woman heard this, she turned around and looked at the two large bags of mung beans, thinking secretly in her heart.

Although more people have been buying mung beans recently than usual, each person only buys three to five pounds each time.

By this calculation, it will take at least half a month to sell all these two bags of mung beans.

During this period, she can go to the neighboring county to purchase a new batch of beans and continue selling them.

The woman was obviously a person who knew how to adapt to changes. She immediately understood the interests involved.

So he answered readily: "Since you want them all, I will sell them to you at the original price!"

Song Zhi smiled upon hearing this. "Then I'd like to trouble you to weigh these mung beans first. I'll need you to help transport them out of the city with a cart later."

"No problem, no problem." The woman said happily.

The woman weighed all the beans in front of Song Zhi, "There are two hundred and eight kilograms in total, a total of... a total of..."

Song Zhi stood aside and listened to her mumbling. After fiddling with her fingers for a while, she smiled and said to Song Zhi, "The total is 832 coins."

Song Zhi nodded in agreement, but instead of paying directly, she asked, "Auntie, would you like to find a place with fewer people to pay?"

In a place like the vegetable market, there are people coming and going. She has given the money, and it would be bad if the other party was targeted by someone.

The woman also understood the principle of not showing off one's wealth. She nodded gratefully at Song Zhi and said, "Let's go to the vegetable market first!"

Song Zhi waited for the woman to pack up her things, and the three of them left the vegetable market and turned onto the street.

Song Zhi stopped at a less crowded street and took out the money that Shopkeeper Zhou had just given her from her basket. "Here are eight hundred coins. Auntie, please check the amount."

After saying that, she took out another thirty-two copper coins from her pocket and handed them over.

For farmers, every penny is very important. It took a quarter of an hour for the woman to count the coins.

The woman carefully put away the money and said apologetically, "I'm sorry for wasting your time. The amount is good, shall we go now?"

"Auntie, could you please go with us to the East City Market? My family is still there, and we need to tell them first so he doesn't worry."

The woman had just received some money and was very happy.

Seeing Song Zhiyou's request, she immediately said, "No trouble, no trouble."

So the three of them first went to the east city market, and then took the ox cart back home with two bags of mung beans.

The brother and sister got off the bus at the village entrance.

Song Zhi originally wanted to ask her younger brother to go home first to find someone to help, because two half-grown children could not carry these two bags of mung beans back.

It was just such a coincidence that I met a villager who was carrying jelly to sell.

Without saying a word, everyone took off the backpack and asked their companions to help watch it first, while the other two helped Song Zhi carry the mung beans back home.

After being sent home, Song Zhilian thanked the villagers.

Everyone waved their hands nonchalantly and left in a hurry.

Song An watched the villagers walk away, and realized why his sister gave the jelly to them.

Everyone seems to be more enthusiastic about them!

At this time, Song Zhi had already approached her grandmother and asked, "Grandma, do you need help?"

When Mrs. Wu saw her granddaughter coming back, she immediately handed the knife to Song Zhi and said, "I'll weigh the beans, and you distribute the jelly to everyone."

Second Madam Zhao, holding a bag of beans, handed it to Wu, "Look, old sister, how much jelly can I get from these beans?"

Wu took the scale she had borrowed from the clan leader's house, counted the amount, and said, "It's a little over sixteen pounds. I'll weigh sixteen pounds for you, and you can get twenty yuan in return."

"This time, each person is limited to 20 yuan. Whoever sells out first can come back and exchange it. It's up to you."

This was also what Wu had agreed upon with the villagers at the beginning, and Wu would explain it to all the villagers who came later.

Second Madam Zhao nodded repeatedly when she heard this, "Okay, okay."

Yesterday she heard from her daughter-in-law that the Song family could make jelly for them to sell. Although she was tempted, her family was busy with the old man's medical treatment and they really couldn't afford the money.

He thought that he could wait for a while until his daughter-in-law finished her work at the Song family, and then it would not be too late to do this business at home.

Although it is a pity, it is also a helpless move.

Unexpectedly, this morning, her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Lu, ran back happily and said to her, "Aunt Wu agreed to exchange beans for jelly."

She did not hesitate immediately, and hurriedly took out the beans from her home to pick them out, and then sent her eldest grandson here to get the news.

When she heard that the exchange had started over there, she hurried over with half of the beans she had picked up.

She happily held the ceramic bowl of jelly she had just exchanged, and took an empty bowl to ask Wu to help weigh out the beans that could be exchanged for a piece of jelly.

She planned to carry the jelly to her daughter's farm to take a look.

She didn't have a scale with her, so it would be better if she met a customer who paid money, but if she met a customer who paid beans, she would have an idea of the amount.

She would not know how much the other party should give her so that she would not be at a loss.

Mrs. Wu had thought of this early in the morning. She pointed to the two bowls behind her and said, "I've weighed the mung beans and peas for you. Take the bowls and count them yourself. You'll have an idea."

After the count, Second Grandma Zhao did not go home. The grandmother and granddaughter went straight to the village where their daughter lived.

Her daughter's wedding place wasn't far away, but it still took her more than half an hour to walk there.

The weight of twenty pieces of jelly, a ceramic basin and a backpack is quite tiring for an elderly woman to walk for a long time.

At this time, the big cow next to her would take the initiative to offer to feed her.

A boy of twelve or thirteen should be able to carry such a heavy object.

But for their family, this jelly is really precious. If it is accidentally broken, it will be more trouble than gain.

When Da Niu saw that his grandmother didn't want him to carry the backpack, he walked behind her and held up the backpack with his hands to lighten some of the burden.

The grandfather and grandson supported each other and walked to their daughter's house.

"Mother, why are you here?" Little Zhao, who was spinning hemp thread in the yard, saw the person coming and hurriedly stood up to greet her.

Zhao said bluntly, "I've mixed some jelly and am selling it in your village. Can you help me ask around and see if anyone wants it? Three cents a piece, or eight ounces of beans for a piece of jelly."

When Xiao Zhao heard her mother say this, the mother and daughter had no time to reminisce about the past.

She immediately took her mother to the busiest gathering place in the village and asked everyone if anyone wanted to buy jelly.

Now that the city has cancelled the entrance fee, many villagers have seen the popularity of this jelly at the grass market in the county town.

But because the jelly costs three cents a piece, most villagers are reluctant to buy it.

Now I heard that beans can be used to make jelly.

Everyone didn't hesitate. They were reluctant to spend money, but they were willing to exchange it for beans.

After finding out the exchange weight, they all went home to get beans to exchange.

In just a short while, all 19 pieces of jelly were sold out.

Zhao wanted to leave the remaining piece to her daughter and refused to sell it no matter what.
