Chapter 869 Help the fishermen and collect seafood

After lunch, everyone rested at Yuelai Inn, and the twins were placed by Kangxi. Qingyan and Yin leisurely walked out of the gate of Yuelai Inn. They changed into the clothes of the rich young master and grandma. Qingyan used a pomegranate golden hairpin to tie her head with a Ruyi bun, and dressed more like a Han woman, with her long skirt covering her feet.

On the street, Qingyan's Hanfu is not much different from the other ladies and does not attract much attention.

The shops on both sides are open for business, and there are a lot of seafood sold in the small stalls in front of the shop.

The stalls are rented at the stall fee of five cents a day. After the fishermen have harvested, they quickly sent it to nearby counties for sale. Local residents have affordable seafood on the table, and seafood such as fish can also be regarded as a portion of meat.

"Si4, look at those big barrels." Qingyan felt curious and had been living in the capital and had never seen the seafood market in the Qing Dynasty.

Now, she could witness everything, stepping on the bottom of the flower pot and slipping to the front of the big bucket. She tilted her head and looked at it, and was surprised by Haihong in front of her.

Are these sea rainbows now?

"Master, this is delicious." Qingyan likes to eat seafood the most. If it weren't for the plan from the capital, she would have visited the beach several times while Yin Xiumu.

"Buy!" Yin gave a word.

"Old man, how much copper coins are needed to buy them all?" Qingyan roughly learned about the local prices, which should be less than five taels of silver.

The stall owner is a 50-year-old man. He has been standing here for a whole morning and bought only two or three kilograms of sea rainbow. This thing has not much meat, and compared with the razor clams, it sells very little.

"This lady, this is at least hundreds of kilograms." The old man was a simple fisherman. This time he went out to the boat, he didn't catch fish, but just gathered the sea rainbows dug by the women in the village, hoping to try his luck in the county.

"No problem." Qingyan likes Haihong very much.

When she was in modern times, she often bought Haihong to make it.

Haihong Rice, Haihong Soup, Stir-fried Haihong

A series of dishes about Haihong appeared in my mind. To be honest, Qingyan hopes that the market can supply Yuelai Inn.

"Old man, I bought all these. Is your Haihong's harvest good?" Qingyan looked at the Haihong in the big bucket, and each one was alive.

Elu sent a guard to Yuelai Inn to find someone. Such a large bucket and future negotiations should be negotiated by the people from Yuelai Inn.

"Madam, this thing is very good. When you go to sea every day, people in the country can get a lot of it, all of which are eaten by their own food." The old man was a little embarrassed. He set up a stall here many times. His wife looked arrogant and rarely was so gentle.

Qingyan pondered for a moment, thinking that Yuelai Inn would have a lot of demand.

"Old man, please follow us to Yuelai Inn with your things." Qing Yan lowered his voice and said, taking the opportunity to negotiate everything.

The old man looked surprised. The things at Yuelai Inn were all supplied by special suppliers, and they couldn't get in at all.

"Don't worry, I'm in charge of purchasing goods." Qingyan said gently.

At this time, Yin was willing to stand behind her and prepare to give Qingyan support openly.

The old man saw Qing Yan saying it was very sincere. With the help of Elu and others, he bumped into the ox cart and slowly followed everyone to Yuelai Inn behind.

When the shopkeeper approached the door, he personally came to greet him and asked the old man to drive the ox cart to the side door. The waiter helped unload the goods and weighed them. After the old man unloaded all the Haihong, the shopkeeper took the old man to the private room beside the kitchen.

"Old man, we all know the weight, please offer the price." Qingyan looked at the old man, how did the old man transport it to here with a weight of nearly 200 kilograms?

The old man is a little embarrassed. He has been to the county town so many times and has never been to Yuelai Inn in the future. Although Yuelai Inn will have special dishes every day, some of which are as low as 3 cents. In the old man's heart, this copper coin can also be bought for two candy for my grandson.

"Madam, Xiaomin will give you the price you sell." The old man thought about it. The price of selling was already the lowest, and the women in the village also wanted to use these to supplement their household income.

"Is it 6 ounces per catty?" Sulan asked standing aside.

The old man nodded quickly, and Qingyan saw that the old man was already white but his body was still very strong.

"Old man, these are 200 kilograms, each kilogram is 6 kilograms, and a total of 12 kilograms." Qing Yan thought about it, how could this old man get so many copper coins? "Do you want silver or copper coins?"

Surprise flashed in the old man's eyes. He had never seen so many copper coins at once.

"It's a copper plate, and this is what the whole village works together." The old man said excitedly.

Qingyan nodded to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper turned around and went to the counter to prepare copper coins for the old man.

In the private room, Sulan served a glass of iced sour plum soup, which made the old man sweat, and specially arranged a special lunch today.

"I see that your seafood is very fresh, and I plan to ask you to supply it to Yuelai Inn. Is there any inventory in your village? Everything is fine, live seafood or dried fish or something." Qingyan likes some seafood, and some soaked seafood is more likely to be taken to the capital.

The old man quickly thanked him, looked at the meal in front of him, thinking in his mind that it wouldn't be better if he could eat these.

"Girl, can I bring this meal back?" The old man was so hungry that he was still hungry, but he still wanted to bring the good things to the children. "I want to bring them to the children."

"Uncle, this is yours. When I leave, I will bring you two more." Su Lan smiled. It is a happy thing to have such an elder.

"Thank you, madam, there is a lot of inventory in the village, and this old man can't move it anymore." The old man said regretfully.

Qingyan thought that Elu and others had a child on the beach, so they should be able to help.

"Elu, you send two people from the beach to go back with the old man and buy back all the things sold in the village according to the market price. Remember, it must be decided by the villagers and not be robbed." Qingyan decided to send two guards to follow the old man and not go back.

After all, the old man took the copper plate that he had puzzled, and it would definitely be unsafe to go back alone.

"Yes!" Elu hurried out to make arrangements. The old man listened to Qingyan's arrangements and not only thanked him very much, but just now, he was also worried about what to do with the more than a thousand copper coins.

"Old man, I want all those things. I can deliver goods here at any time. As long as you get something from there, Yuelai Inn will collect everything." Qingyan said directly.

The old man's eyes were wet, and he could finally find a way out for the people in the village.
