Chapter 82: Don't dare to despise it
The so-called Jiang rice is the rice produced in Jiangnan, and the rice there is soft and glutinous, which is much more delicious than the rice here, but because it has to be transported from Jiangnan, the price is also more expensive.
This kind of river rice can only be eaten by large families, and ordinary people are reluctant to eat this kind of rice.
Therefore, Li Dawei pointed to a bag of rice next to him and said with a smile: "This kind of rice is a new rice produced locally this year, and it tastes good, but the price is much cheaper, as long as twenty-five wen a catty, and the one over there, it is old rice, the taste is a little worse, but the price is more affordable, as long as twenty wen a catty, little lady, look at it, which one do you buy?" ”
Lin Yi reached out and grabbed a handful of old rice, put it under his nose and smelled it, although it was old rice, it didn't smell musty, look at the color, the quality was okay.
Li Dawei saw it, and said with a smile: "Our Li Ji's rice, even if it is old rice, the quality is good, there will definitely be no moldy rice, little lady, don't worry." ”
Lin Yi grabbed another handful of new rice to smell, and a fresh fragrance of rice flowers wafted into his nose, and sure enough, it was new rice, which was indeed much more fragrant than the old rice.
Lin Yi threw the rice back into the rice bag, pointed to the new rice from the local area, and said, "Boss, if you want this, I buy more, can it be cheaper?" ”
Li Dawei was secretly surprised in his heart, this little girl would choose new rice, after all, new rice is so expensive, and, looking at their clothes, they are not rich, and they can't help but sigh in their hearts, this little lady is really a loser, and she doesn't know how hard it is to make money.
Li Dawei felt pity for the couple in his heart, the husband was a fool, the daughter-in-law was an ignorant person, so he didn't feel unhappy when he heard her bargain, he just asked, "I don't know how much the little lady wants to buy?" ”
Lin Yi said: "Let's buy thirty catties first, if the boss's rice is good, we will come to patronize it in the future." ”
Lin Yi has already calculated, his family of six people, according to the amount of food per person per day of six taels, Jin Dou, a big man, looks tall and big, the amount of food must be larger, just give him one pound and two taels a day, almost five catties a day, and thirty catties can eat for six or seven days.
If you mix some sorghum rice with rice when cooking, then it will be about three catties a day, and then thirty catties can be eaten for ten days.
Li Dawei thought for a while and said, "Then I'll give you one less penny, one pound and twenty-four wen." ”
Lin Yi shook his head and offered directly: "Twenty wen." ”
Li Dawei immediately frowned and shook his head, and said, "Little lady, this price is too little, and our cost is not enough." ”
Lin Yi smiled: "How can it not be enough for the cost?" This year's new rice, the retail price is 10 wen a catty, according to a catty of rice out of eight or two meters to calculate, the cost of a catty of rice is a little more than 12 wen, even if you add the processing fee of rice husking, this cost is less than 15 wen, Boss Li, you sell 20 wen but make a lot of money. “
Li Dawei was secretly surprised in his heart, this little lady looked like she was only twelve or thirteen years old, but when she spoke, she was the first to speak, which made it difficult to refute.
At this time, Li Dawei no longer dared to despise this little lady, thought about it, and said: "The little lady doesn't know, our shop also needs rent every month, and in my family, there are old and young, and a large family is waiting for dinner." ”
Lin Yi said: "Boss Li, if I just buy one or two catties, I won't bargain with you, but I buy a lot of money, and I will come back often in the future, and today, in addition to buying this rice, we also have to buy a lot of things, there are small profits but quick turnover, Boss Li is a shrewd and capable person, so he should naturally understand this truth." ”
