After traveling through time, I rely on force to survive

Chapter 46: Doesn’t your conscience hurt?

Li Qingqing said goodbye to Shopkeeper Qi, threw the silver onto the empty cart, and continued pushing it out of Qiu Shui Town.

Shopkeeper Qi would not need the prey until ten days after the reservation, so she could process and sell some of the small prey in the space first.

Li Qingqing thought about Shopkeeper Qi's kind reminder for a moment and didn't take it to heart.

She is a married woman registered in the government office. Could it be that Mr. Liu has other hobbies?

If that's the case, there's no need to worry, because she's no longer a pushover.

Li Qingqing pushed the cart into the woods outside Qiu Shui Town, threw the silver into the space, and then piled the small prey in the space on the cart.

She came to the market pushing her cart.

There are more people in the market than on the streets of town.

Especially for those who sell vegetables, vegetables grow rapidly at this time of year, and every household has more vegetables than they can eat, so they take them to the town to sell.

Li Qingqing looked at it with envy, but she resisted the urge to buy it.

We haven't had any vegetables to eat these days, but we've eaten a lot of wild vegetables. The seeds we planted at home have been there for a few days now, and they're probably sprouting by now.

If you buy other people's vegetables now and get tired of them, wouldn't your own vegetables be wasted?

Li Qingqing looked around the market but couldn't find any empty space to sell things. There were so many people that it was very inconvenient for her to push the cart.

Just as she was about to walk further inside, someone called her.

Li Qingqing turned her head and saw that it was Butcher Yang who had helped her family slaughter the wild boar last time.

At this time, he was busy weighing meat for customers in front of the meat stall.

There wasn't much pork left on the meat stall, but there were a lot of people gathered in front of it, all customers vying to buy meat.

They were afraid that they wouldn't be able to buy meat, so they swarmed around the meat stall.

When Butcher Yang was collecting copper coins from customers, he happened to see Li Qingqing pushing a cart of prey. She must be taking it to the market to sell, so he called her and asked her to set up a stall next to his to sell her goods.

Li Qingqing was not polite and pushed the cart to the meat stall.

An anxious fat woman came hurriedly with a basket to buy meat.

The clothes she wore were made of good material and she was afraid that others would squeeze her.

Seeing that the meat stall was surrounded by three layers of people, she tiptoed to look inside and found that there was only a small piece of meat left on the stall.

The fat woman was about to leave decisively. Suddenly, she saw Li Qingqing sorting the prey on the cart. Her eyes lit up immediately and she ran straight to Li Qingqing's cart:

"Miss, how much do you want to sell the prey in your car?"

Li Qingqing pondered for a moment, then said, "I have this cart with prey on it. No matter how big or small, you can pick any one you want. Forty-five cents each!"

Last time she sold them for thirty-five cents each, but that was because she was short of money and in a hurry to get rid of them, so she sold them at a low price.

Butcher Yang regularly sells pork at this market. Now they kindly let her set up a stall next to the butcher's stall. She couldn't mess up the prices and affect Butcher Yang's business, so she raised the price.

Forty-five cents per piece, more expensive than meat but lower than the market price.

Li Qingqing felt that the price should be reasonable.

But the fat woman was dissatisfied and complained:

"Why are you selling them so expensive? Last time, there was an ugly girl with a rash on her face. Her rabbits were so cheap, only thirty-five cents each! Your rabbits aren't as fresh as hers! If you sell them for thirty cents each, I'll buy two."

Li·Ugly Girl·Qingqing:……

I have seen people bargaining, but I have never seen anyone bargaining in such a fresh and refined way.

Auntie, the fat rabbit in your hand is dripping with blood!

Don't you feel guilty when you talk nonsense with your eyes open?

"Auntie, the prey here is plump and tender, all fresh. Forty-five coins for one is not a bad price. If you buy two, the total price is eighty coins."

Li Qingqing was not annoyed and said with a smile.

"I'll buy two!" Another short aunt heard it and rushed over.

The meat stall was crowded with people. The short aunt couldn't squeeze in and buy meat. Seeing that the prey sold by Li Qingqing was quite good, she started to choose the prey without saying a word.

If two pieces cost eighty wen, it is only three or four wen more than the price of meat. You can eat them occasionally for the novelty of the new food.

"Okay!" Li Qingqing took the money from the short aunt and let her pick up two prey from the cart herself.

Someone took the lead and others followed suit.

Seeing the dwindling amount of meat on the butcher's stall, several shrewd women quickly moved and ran to Li Qingqing's cart to buy prey.

Although we can't get any pork, this prey is not bad either. The fur we peel off is white, and we can make collars for our children in winter.

Cost-effective!

Soon after, several more people bought the prey.

The fat woman from before was pushed aside by a few shrewd women.

The fat woman hid the rabbit in her hand in the corner of the cart, feeling disgusted and afraid that these people would squeeze her clothes and dirty them.

An old woman stared at the cart for a long time. Not knowing that the hare was picked by the fat woman, she picked it up and was about to pay and leave.

The fat woman quickly grabbed it and said, "Don't move, I picked it!"

"You haven't paid for it yet, how can it be yours?" The old woman sneered.

"You've been standing here for quite some time. Now that you've made your choice, just buy it and go! Why are you blocking the way and preventing others from buying?"

They seemed to know each other, their eyes met, and sparks gradually appeared.

Li Qingqing quickly said, "Auntie, the rabbit you chose is quite big. Forty-five cents is quite a bargain."

"I'll pay now!" The fat woman was very unhappy. She seemed embarrassed to bargain when she saw someone she knew, but she kept hesitating and refused to pay.

"If you don't want to buy it, give this hare to me!" The old woman was about to snatch the hare.

"Don't rush, choose one yourself, I'll buy this one!"

The fat woman reluctantly handed over the forty-five cents, picked up the rabbit and stuffed it into the basket she was carrying. She muttered something and walked away very unhappy.

Li Qingqing smiled and continued to greet other guests warmly.

To be honest, Li Qingqing has no experience in setting up stalls and selling goods.

Since we already belong to this world, we must eventually try to get used to this kind of life full of worldly flavor, right?

Butcher Yang had already sold out his meat. Seeing that Li Qingqing still had more than half of her carloads of prey left to sell, he helped her to sell them.

An elderly woman, holding a child by her side, also wanted to buy a rabbit. After hesitating for a while, she asked, "Can you help me slaughter it?"

"Sure!" Butcher Yang answered immediately and volunteered to help slaughter and process the animals.

He had a knife and a wooden butcher's stand, which made it very convenient for him to handle the rabbit.

Seeing someone helping to slaughter the prey, some people who didn't know how to handle the prey and were still hesitant all came over.

Before long, all the prey on the cart was sold out.

Li Qingqing wanted to keep the two prey as a thank you to Butcher Yang, but she didn't have time to keep them as they were bought by others.

Li Qingqing felt a little embarrassed. Seeing that it was already past lunchtime, she invited Butcher Yang to have a bowl of noodles at a nearby noodle stall.

"Thank you, daughter-in-law of the Zhou family. I won't eat it. I'm going to the next village to collect pigs and see if I can get them."

Butcher Yang smiled innocently and declined Li Qingqing's invitation.

Seeing that Butcher Yang was so busy, Li Qingqing stopped insisting and took out a hundred coins to hand over to Butcher Yang.

Butcher Yang waved his hands repeatedly and said with a smile: "If you really want to thank me, you can sell me wild boars if you kill them in the future."

"Okay!" Li Qingqing nodded and agreed happily.

After watching Butcher Yang go away, Li Qingqing started pushing the cart, preparing to clean it and return it to the grocery store.

But at this moment, an angry voice sounded from behind:

"That's her! Stop her!"
