Chapter 48 48. Buying ducks
Song Hongmei was very dissatisfied: "As a businessman, you don't want customers?"
Lao Zhang was not happy either: "My old sister, you have to haggle every time you bring someone here. How can I make any profit?"
Every business person says this, Song Hongmei doesn’t even make any money selling egg pancakes!
She didn’t believe it.
So he turned to Song Tan and said, "Even though this place is dilapidated, in fact this land belongs to him. Otherwise, if such a dilapidated house in the old city is not demolished, can he still sell chickens and ducks? People would have come to the door a long time ago."
Fortunately, this place is located between several large residential buildings and does not affect the appearance of the city. Otherwise, this sneaky business would have been impossible to do long ago.
Song Hongmei has been in the family home for more than 20 years, and she knows what she knows: "Tan Tan, don't listen to his nonsense. He hatched these ducks at home, and it cost very little. Let me tell you, last year it was four It’s only 1 yuan, so don’t suffer a loss!”
Lao Zhang's expression changed: "Sister! Are you deliberately trying to cause trouble? Last year's price was last year's, why won't the price increase this year? I won't sell it for four yuan!"
Song Hongmei turned around and left: "You guys talk, I have to go home and cook."
Then he walked away.
The remaining three looked at each other in confusion, and then Qiaoqiao repeated: "Four yuan each?"
Lao Zhang refused: "No! The minimum is four and a half yuan, or you can buy it somewhere else!"
Song Tan almost laughed.
She had inquired about the prices before and found that no one had a price lower than five yuan. It seemed that four yuan was really a bargain.
“Okay, four and a half dollars is four and a half dollars, let’s take a look first.”
Just take a look and have a look.
Lao Zhang was still very confident in his own ducks. He led the two of them through the front house, turned into the backyard, then entered another house, and then entered the backyard—
This is his secret base.
Half of the awnings were erected here, and the smell of duck **** could be smelled from a distance.
However, when we entered, a group of yellow and furry little ducks swayed their butts from side to side and rushed towards us!
The scene couldn’t be more joyful!
Qiaoqiao couldn't move her legs at that time, so she squatted down and looked at Song Tan eagerly.
Lao Zhang explained next to him: "Have you raised them before? How many do you want? This is a shelduck, with good meat quality and fast growth. Look at them, they are all strong and strong. If you buy them back, they will live a good life!" "
Song Tanxin said this.
They came suddenly, and the boss didn't make any preparations in advance. However, to the naked eye, the little ducks were all in high spirits and indeed in good health.
Four and a half dollars each, which is considered super cheap.
She thought about it for a while. There was a pond above the bamboo forest in her hometown. The ducks could still go into the rice fields to graze. There was also a hillside where they could move around as they pleased. The place was big enough.
“Let’s get a hundred first.”
Hundred?
This time it was Lao Zhang's turn to be surprised.
"I thought you were raising a few of them as farmers...you need so many!"
Then he saw Song Tan's face, and remembered that this was Song Hongmei's belt, and he became wary again: "I can tell you, if you buy a thousand of them, it will be the same price, and it can't be less than four dollars and a half!"
Song Hongmei is so persistent, so persistent!
If she can't get a price that she's satisfied with, she'll come and do it every day! Selling ducks is not selling vegetables. It takes a long time for a wave of ducks to hatch and grow, so she can persevere.
Lao Zhang really couldn't bear it, so he told Lao Di'er all at once.
Song Tan couldn't laugh or cry.
“Okay, quite a bit. Your duck is quite good. I’ll buy it next year.”
She was so cheerful, Lao Zhang felt a little embarrassed:
“Oh, it’s all Sister Song’s fault. She has to bargain with me every time. I’ve been afraid of her for so long.”
But he turned around and counted the ducks in his small yard - they were hatching in batches, and there were only one hundred, twenty or thirty in total in the yard.
Lao Zhang thought about it for a while: "Otherwise, you buy one hundred and twenty, and I will give you the remaining ones."
Although most of them are strong, there are inevitably a few that are a little weaker, and the price of these will be reduced.
Instead of being left here to be picked over and unable to be sold, it is better to pack them all at once.
At the same time, I’m also afraid that Song Tan doesn’t know the goods:
“I can tell you that less than half of my batch are male ducks. Male ducks are more nutritious than female ducks. The original price is higher, but I will give you the same price for them all.”
What’s more, there is no other way to taste duck eggs better than salted duck eggs. The economic value is even worse.
What Lao Zhang said was honest.
Song Tan thought about it and bought a hundred of them, not more than twenty or thirty, so he nodded cheerfully:
"OK."
More than a hundred ducks were put into the carriage, and the time came to twelve o'clock. There was no way to go back for lunch today, but fortunately Song Tan had already prepared.
At this moment, he took Qiaoqiao with him: "Let's go, what do you want to eat? My sister will take you there."
Jojo thought hard: "What does Peppa Pig eat?"
What does Peppa Pig eat?
Song Tan doesn’t know, maybe it’s pig food...
She thought for a while:
“Let’s go, let’s take you to eat fried chicken, French fries, red bean pie, hamburger!”
It’s not about how delicious they are, but about the toys they gave away, and to give Qiaoqiao, who has never eaten it, a change of taste.
There is a little duck in the car, and everything is packed and brought to the car.
Qiao Qiao just opened the toy box in her hand, but she was surprised to find that there was a little yellow duck inside!
The two wings flap up and down, which is very interesting.
“Little duck!”
He screamed in surprise, then took a bite of the roasted chicken leg.
“Hmm…” He chewed with a strange expression.
Song Tan glanced at him: "Is it delicious?"
Qiaoqiao thought for a while and looked confused: "No food is delicious, but, but..."
He couldn't speak.
“But it’s quite new, right?” Song Tan added.
“Yeah!” Qiaoqiao nodded heavily, and then took another bite.
This poor baby...
Song Tan thought: I should take him to the children's playground a few times when I have time.
Qiaoqiao didn’t know that there would be more delicious and fun things waiting for her in the future. At this moment, she just nodded with satisfaction, holding a chicken wing in one hand and a little duck in the other:
“Sister, can you eat it next time?”
Song Tan felt sorry for him: "Then I can eat it once every two weeks, okay?"
How long is two weeks?
Qiaoqiao blinked and finally nodded blankly.
Thinking about it for a while, he took out half a pack of snow cakes from the bag:
“I can’t eat this anymore. Can I take it back to Dabai?”
"all right."
She still had a pack in her pocket: "We have to invite the little duckling back later, please feed it more delicious food."
Large white striped duck?
Qiaoqiao subconsciously turned to look at the back of the car, and after a long time, she frowned and said:
“A big white-striped duck, wouldn’t it be very vicious?”
"No!" Song Tan coaxed him: "The duck will look like Dabai and won't fit in one pot!"
Oops, think about winter melon and duck soup, sour bamboo shoots and duck soup, roast duck... my mouth is watering.
However, Qiaoqiao had a sad face:
“Dabai is not good, Dabai cannot be stewed.”
This is the disadvantage of keeping animals for a long time. Once you become emotionally involved, you can't let go of them.
Song Tan sighed:
“If we don’t stew Dabai, we’ll eat duck—you’re not allowed to play with the duck then.”
One hundred thousand words!
I am really very diligent!
