Chapter 174 Barter
The few fishermen with unruly intentions were scared out of their wits, and turned around abruptly, rushing towards the sea.

Those vendors who were waiting to collect the fish were so anxious that they almost scolded their mothers, "What's the matter? Why are you running away! Our fish! Did you make a mistake? What the hell?"

The farce outside Dongcheng soon spread throughout the entire city of Chaozhou. Everyone knew that there was an amazing girl in Chaozhou, but they didn't know her true face.

The three of Tangning couldn't care less, Qiu Jingming asked after the donkey cart drove out of the west gate, "How is it going? Is it fun at sea?"

Because Tang Ning was a bold person, he could only trade danger for fun. Judging by her reaction, he was obviously very satisfied with the trip.

Sure enough, Tangning smiled happily and said excitedly, "You guys don't know how vast the sea is! It's endless, and sea fishing is also very interesting. You don't even know what you will catch when you put the hook down. Some fish look weird. Yes, it looks like it is poisonous, but in fact it is indeed rare and delicious, and it is worth the money!"

"Miss Ning, how do you know?" Lu Dazhuang couldn't help interrupting.

Tangning raised her chin arrogantly, "Of course I asked the fishermen. There are so many people at sea, and there are always warm-hearted people. Even if the fishermen don't tell me, there are still soldiers on the coast guard!"

"That's right!" Lu Dazhuang nodded, and said enviously: "It's better to be a navy army! You have a lot of experience and knowledge."

Tangning shook her head, "It can't be compared to this. They are at sea all year round, facing the vast sea. It's okay to watch it once or twice. Who can bear it if they watch it every day! But they not only watch it every day, but also prepare for it every day. Once they fight, they will either die or die. Death, after all, in the water, the chance of surviving is much smaller."

Lu Dazhuang fell into deep thought, and smiled after a long while: "Ms. Ning still sees far, so I didn't think about it so much! Forget it, I'd better do my job well, by the way, where are we going for a while?"

Tangning looked at Qiu Jingming and asked for advice, "Chenjiazhuang?"

"can."

A group of people turned around and headed towards Chenjiazhuang. It was time to go to the market, and Chenjiazhuang was still very lively. The local villagers sold their own chickens, ducks and various eggs, as well as some vegetables and fruits. It is really a joy to see fruits and vegetables.

Along the way, Tangning couldn't see enough.

When they first arrived, they didn't just find a place to set up a stall, but asked the surrounding vendors to understand the rules here, and then moved the tub to the donkey cart after making sure that there was no problem. Let's move things together, although the two of them didn't use much effort, but they still need to do some superficial work.

As soon as the big bathtub was placed there, it immediately attracted a lot of people's attention.

"Brother, what do you sell?" The aunt asked curiously.

Tangning directly opened the lid of the bucket, and the group of people gasped, and then shouted in surprise, "Fish! It's still sea fish! How do you sell it?"

Tang Ning had just heard those vendors discussing the price of fish in whispers outside the city, and immediately said calmly, "I'm selling at the purchase price at the harbor, and I don't bargain with you. A yellow croaker that weighs two to three catties Fifty Wen, yellow croaker over three catties is called by catty, thirty Wen per catty, and thirty-five Wen per catty for other types.”

If she hadn't caught a group of yellow croakers, she wouldn't have to sell them at such a low price, but it wasn't considered a cheap sale, at most, the price was not high.

Sure enough, everyone gathered around hearing the price. The villages on this side of the West City seldom fish for a living. If you want to eat fish, you go to the river to catch it. If you want to eat this kind of seafood, you can go to restaurants and restaurants in the city. , or go to the fishing villages outside the east city, maybe you can catch them. Few people sell seafood in Daji like Tang Ning, and the price is not high.

Even if someone questioned it, they couldn't find any problems, because the fish in the tub was still alive, and it looked like it had just been salvaged.

For a while, this place became the busiest place in the market, and some people hurried back to the village to inform others to come.

Tangning and the other three were not in a hurry, so they fished out two to three catties of yellow croakers first, and they could choose whatever they wanted.

He kept staring at the grain sellers at the market all the time, and Qiu Jingming found one. He and Tangning made up their minds and left.

When Qiu Jingming came back again, he said to the two of them: "That man is willing to trade fish with us. I inquired about it in the city yesterday. Here, brown rice is nine yuan a catty, white rice is twenty-five yuan a catty, and old rice is fifteen yuan a catty." Wen, beans are the same price as brown rice, so it’s not expensive.”

"Not only is it not expensive! It's even cheaper than I imagined!" Tangning said exaggeratedly.

After experiencing the prices in various places, the food here is really cheap enough to make her have the urge to hoard food crazily.

Qiu Jingming felt amused, and said, "This is Lingnan, where food can be grown all year round, and some grow three seasons a year, and there are no severe natural disasters, so the price of food is naturally not too high. After I bargained with the other party, he He also agreed to give us a penny cheaper."

Because of the urgent need for food, Tangning finally agreed with the little brother that he wanted all the food in his hand, and there were fish trades.

The other party was happier than her, and immediately ran back to the village, and brought out a bunch of people after a while, all of them pushing wheelbarrows, with three or four sacks of grain on them, a total of fifteen bags of six hundred catties, all of which were brown rice and beans, worth five thousand Four hundred texts.

Tangning didn't have enough fish to trade with the other party. The final result of the discussion was that Tangning would give them all the fish including the bathtub, and settle the rest with copper coins. In this way, Tangning only needed to pay a few hundred cash.

For her, this transaction was like a white wolf with empty gloves, and she could easily get more than a dozen big bags of grain for only a few hundred cash.

It happened that they had a donkey cart, so they moved the food directly to the donkey cart, and Tangning drove the cart to send it back first, and then made a second trip.

Those who exchanged sea fish from them immediately sent the fish to the city, sold them to restaurants or ordinary people in the city, and made another fortune from it, and everyone was happy.

When the food was sent back to Fenggu Village, everyone was so excited that they almost cried. Knowing that Tangning traded it with sea fish and it didn't cost much money at all, Tang Zheng and the others immediately expressed that they would go to sea with them.

Tangning refused without even thinking about it, "Are you guys going to swim? Are you seasick? Can you stand the weather at sea? Let's just build our home honestly. Don't think about it. If you have this spare time, it's better to practice a few more times with Da Zhuang." Use your moves so that you won’t be bullied because you’re too weak to go out like this! When the shop is ready, the business should be done, and if you want to do farm work, do you have nothing to do?”

Tang Zheng and the others seemed to have been splashed with cold water, and continued to work with their heads drooped, but from today onwards, everyone seemed to have the awareness of practicing martial arts, and Lu Dazhuang also changed from a little transparent that no one cared about to the center of everyone's attention. Someone pestered him to learn martial arts.
