Transmigration: To Be His Man-Chapter 103 Buy Sweet Potatoes and Potatoes

Qin Mian hired eight women in the village who were responsible for making sweet potato and potato starch. Two peeling, two chopping. The other four mashed and made starch. This time, he did not invite anyone else. Instead, he invited a few other people, but they all had good characters and were diligent in their work. It would also try to maintain a balance in the village. The next step was more critical. Qin Mian let his family's generals take responsibility, not afraid of them revealing his secret.

Qin Mian and Lei Tia were responsible for the purchase of the potato and sweet potato. Lei Tia had overstated it and paid for it.

Once everything was pla

ed, Qin Mian would have his people spread the news. If you buy too much, it's not convenient to store. Therefore, every two days, it would be purchased.

Today, he took out a brush, ink and paper, while Lei Tia carried a case of copper coins that he had specially bought in the town to the main entrance. Uncle Fu brought a set of table and chairs over and placed them in the shade of a tree.

The villagers picked up the sweet potatoes and sweet potatoes from home early in the morning, came to the Leisurely Dwelling House and lined up in front of the door. Summer is not the fruit of sweet potatoes, most of which are stored in their cellars during the winter. The price was slightly higher. June was the maturity period for potatoes, and many of the potatoes brought by the villagers were covered with a little soil. Every year at this time, the farmers would harvest the potatoes they grew. If there was too much, it wouldn't be worth it anymore. They never thought of selling it, they just added a bowl of vegetables to their table. But now, Leisurely Dwelling House could actually buy potatoes, and they could exchange for money without even going out. Everyone had smiles on their faces. 𝗳𝓇ℯe𝓌𝚎𝚋𝓃𝚘𝚟𝘦𝑙.𝑐𝚘𝙢

The villagers chatted happily, asking each other how many potatoes and sweet potatoes they had brought, what they were going to do with the money. The Leisurely Dwelling House entrance was bustling with noise and excitement, as if it was a big gathering. A few naughty guys wanted to run into the farmhouse, so they were scolded by their parents and obediently played at the door.

"Calm down, uncles. Let me first talk about the price of sweet potatoes and potatoes." Qin Mian stood on the chair and said loudly.

Lei Tia saw that he was only taller than his by half a head, and a smile flashed past his eyes.

The villagers immediately quieted down, afraid that they would suffer if they misunderstood the price.

Qin Mian said, "A sweet potato is one and a half kilograms, and a potato is one and a half kilograms. "Because weighing ca

ot happen to be an integer, and I ca

ot break a dime into a few portions, so if there is a fraction of the bill, we will give you an integer.

"What do you mean? Zero Head... "You're not giving it to me?" A villager asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

Qin Mian laughed, "For example, if I weighed potatoes for you guys, it would be twenty and a half kilograms, which is twenty-eight kilograms. "In short, if you have a dime, we'll charge you a pe

y."

The villagers praised Qin Mian and Lei Tia for being so kind.

Qin Mian said modestly: "You flatter me too much. We are all from the same village, so we won't fool you. I will write down your names, the weight of the dishes, and the total price in my account book. There are those who are illiterate. You can memorize the numbers and then ask the literate person. "

The villagers all nodded.

"That's good."

"In addition," Qin Mian explained everything that he needed to say, "Because the baskets and the weight of the baskets that each family brought were different, they were all weighed in our own baskets. The total weight taken off our basket is the weight of your food. "

The villagers nodded again. They all understood.

Qin Mian jumped down from the chair and sat in front of the table, he placed down the pen and paper, and said, "Tia, how about you call us our basket first?"

Lei Tia called out his basket in front of everyone, "Six taels."

The people in the manor basically read the scales, and the two women who were watching on the side nodded to show that there was no problem.

"Alright, let's overweigh it now. Everyone, line up and come one by one. " Qin Mian said.

Zhou Erhao was the first to arrive, ranking first. His family's potatoes were packed in baskets. Lei Tia picked up the potatoes one by one to see if they were broken or not. If they were not, he would put them into his basket.

Behind them, some of the villagers who had been fooling around quickly found a place to secretly pick out their own rotten potatoes and sweet potatoes.

Zhou Erhao felt that Lei Tia humiliated him by inspecting him like this, but he did not dare protest against Lei Tia. He could only keep a straight face and mutter: "Our family's potatoes are all good. Just dug, fresh. "

Qin Mian laughed: "Of course. However, in two days, there will definitely be villagers from other villages who will bring potatoes and sweet potatoes. This way, we will be able to treat everyone equally and avoid u

ecessary troubles. "Brother Zhou, don't mind it."

Zhou Erhao was speechless.

After checking to the bottom, Lei Tia picked out four rotten potatoes and set them aside. Several villagers saw this clearly and started to laugh.

Zhou Erhao stuttered but was unable to say a word.

Qin Mian and Lei Tia did not say anything. Lei Tia hung the basket on the scale hook, and with a flick of the weight, he said, "Forty catties."

Qin Mian truthfully recorded it and repeated it to Zhou Erhao, "Zhou Erhao, potato, 40 jin 4 taels, counted as 41 jin, 41 copper coins."

"That's right." Zhou Erhao said.

Lei Qinle swiftly counted out forty-one copper coins from the till and handed it over to Lei Qin Hui. Lei Qin Hui said again. After confirming that it was correct, he handed it over to Zhou Erhao.

The weighed potatoes were poured out by Lei Qinzhong onto the carriage, and after the carriage was filled up, they were sent to the workshop.

Zhou Erhao happily took the money and pocketed it.

A villager lined up at the back of the line to make fun of him, "Good, let's go to the town together for a drink today!"

Zhou Erhao picked up a few potatoes that were partially rotten and put them back into his basket, "Another day, another day. The potatoes in the field are not finished yet. "

"Next."

Madam Du and Madame Zhao each held a basket and placed it on the ground. One basket contained sweet potatoes, the other a potato.

The villagers quietened down at the same time and stretched their necks. They all had a feeling that this mother-in-law pair was about to stir up some trouble again.

Lei Tia also checked them one by one.

The Madam Du had a dead face, coldly snorted, and said with a sharp voice, "Boss, we are all family, do you think I would lie to you? It's not easy to see you do it, right? "

The husband and husband pretended not to hear. Qin Mian looked down at the account book and thought, if there really is a rotten one, then you're the one who doesn't look good. Lei Tia's hands did not stop moving.

Mrs Zhao thought that under the potatoes, there was a mix of rotten potatoes and sweet potatoes, she was a little flustered, suddenly, she found the good fortune and quietly retreated to the back of Madam Du. Anyway, she was just helping to carry it.

There were indeed a few rotten ones at the bottom of the basket. There were six potatoes and four sweet potatoes. That added up to seven or eight pounds.

Several villagers could only click their tongues.

The Madam Du said with a straight face, "It's just a little rotten, wouldn't it be fine to eat the rotten one?"

Qin Mian stood up, his attitude was polite, and his tone was serious, "Mother, what you said was not right. "We're buying these sweet potatoes and potatoes to be eaten by others. Isn't it harmful to sell rotten ones to others as well?"

"You ?? "It's not that serious." Madam Du was a little guilty, and her voice was a lot softer.

Qin Mian sat down.

"Fifty-two kilograms of sweet potatoes and sixty kilograms of potatoes." Lei Tia's cold voice fell to the ground like hail.

Madam Du shuddered, and did not dare to pester him anymore.

Qin Mian's writing was smooth as he reported, "Sweet potatoes weighing fifty-two kilograms and four liang, counting fifty-three kilograms. It should be worth seventy-nine and a half liters, counting eighty liters; potatoes weighing sixty kilograms and eight taels, counting sixty-seven kilograms and sixty-seven liters. A total of one hundred and forty-seven dollars. "

Lei Qinle took out a stick of money and counted out seventeen more words.

Madam Du frowned and did not immediately take the money, "Boss's wife, say it again."

Qin Mian repeated himself leisurely.

Madam Du thought for a while before nodding and accepting the money.

"Your mother wants to eat peaches, I'll go pick some." After saying that, she started to walk in.

Qin Mian called out calmly: "Lei Qinle."

Lei Qinle took out a basket from the back of the carriage and ran in front of Madam Du, laughing: "Old gra

y, First Young Master and Young Master are already prepared. Let me help you carry him over? "

Madam Du saw that the baskets were extremely full, but each peach was very big if you couldn't handle it, it should be around a dozen. At most, everyone could get one peach (She wasn't mistaken, Qin Mian had given them according to the size of the old mansion), and she was a little dissatisfied. But Qin Mian had prepared everything beforehand so she could not find anything wrong with it. Seeing that the villagers were all staring at her, her vanity was greatly satisfied. She arrogantly raised her head and walked out the door, scolding Lei Qinle: "Are you still not following me?" 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖

Lei Qinle quickly followed.

"Oh, and the basket!" Mrs Zhao shouted.

Lei Qinle pretended not to hear, and politely said to Madam Du: "Old gra

y, please slow down, be careful of stepping on some rocks."

Mrs Zhao had no choice but to carry two big baskets and chase after them. She stared at the bright red peach in the baskets, afraid that one would be missing.

When they left, the villagers roared with laughter.

Qin Mian lowered his head to write, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.

It wasn't even noon yet, but the villagers in the nearby villages all received the news and rushed over with sweet potatoes and potatoes.

He busied himself until dusk, and after sending off the last person, Qin Mian swung his wrist. Lei Tia walked over and picked up his hand to knead it.

Qin Mian leaned against the back of the chair like a big boss, placed his legs on the table and said to Lei Qin and the rest, "I will let you guys take over the next purchase. Lei Qin was responsible for keeping the accounts. Who will weigh and who will count? Lei Qinzhong arranged for other people to take turns. "

"Yes sir!"

Qin Mian muttered to himself for a moment, then looked at Lei Qin Hui, "There's one more thing."

Lei Qin Hui stepped forward, "Please give your instructions, Young Master."

"How many words do you know?" Qin Mian asked.

Lei Qin Hui said, "I've been in the private school for four years, so I can read most of the characters."

Qin Mian said: "Our family is always troubled by people who are unable to read. How about you teach other people how to read? "

Uncle Fu, Lei Qinle, Lei Qinzhong and the rest were overjoyed, Lei Qinle's hands could not help but tremble. Literacy had always been a far cry from them, but now they had a chance!
