Chen San and Butler Chen looked at each other and forgot about this.
I've just looked at the goods and haven't asked about the price yet. I'm afraid these things are not a small expense.
"Brother, please quote a price first."
Li Yunze nodded, "Eggs and duck eggs cost twenty taels of silver each, goose eggs cost five taels of silver each, chickens and ducks cost eighty taels each, and geese cost one hundred and fifty taels. As for these prey, let's count them as two taels of silver per catty. ."
Finally, he added, "No banknotes, just gold and silver."
The two of them were stunned by the price. No matter how good your product is, you can't sell it for such a sky-high price?
Ye Yutong saw that the expressions of the two of them had changed, and then he stepped forward and said, "Steward Chen, Third Brother Chen, our chickens, ducks and geese are not ordinary poultry. Take a closer look, what kind of chickens, ducks and geese can lay such large eggs?" Eggs?"
Seeing that the two of them were still doubtful, Ye Yutong continued to lie: "These poultry have grown up drinking mountain spring water and eating fine grains and herbs. They have very high nutritional value.
Especially for people with weak constitutions, it is very beneficial. If there were not so many homeless people on the road now, these things would not have reached Qingzhou City at all, and would have been transported to the noble houses in the capital. "
Chen San often purchases, knowing that these are indeed rare and good things, but the price is indeed ridiculously high.
He didn't dare to decide and glanced at Butler Chen sent by his wife.
Although Butler Chen doesn't know the current market price, he knows that the price must be much higher.
He discussed it with Chen San and decided to report it to the master and his wife, so that they could decide whether to buy it or not.
When Butler Chen went in, he also took some eggs, duck eggs, and goose eggs, ready to show the quality to the master and his wife.
Li Yunze and Ye Yutong did not speak, and stood waiting by the carriage. Ye Mingzhe and Chen San were chatting there.
The three of them discussed this price in the afternoon. The chickens, ducks and geese raised in the space are very large, and their taste and meat quality are very good.
In their opinion, the selling price is not expensive at all, and Li Mingze even thinks it is cheap.
Chen Shimei and his wife were talking to his mother. When they saw Butler Chen coming in with a small basket, he asked doubtfully: "Old Chen, what are you getting? Steamed buns?"
Butler Chen said with a smile: "Master, what kind of steamed buns are these? These are goose eggs."
Chen Shimei's mother asked with interest: "Goose egg? Why is it so big? Bring it to me quickly."
Butler Chen quickly raised the basket to her respectfully and told Chen Shimei about the origin of the goose eggs.
"Sir, madam, those guys brought two large carriages to eat. I just saw them. They are all rare items, but the prices are a bit high."
Chen Shimei's wife touched the big goose egg and couldn't put it down and said: "I have never seen such a big egg in my life."
Seeing that my mother liked it, Chen Shimei said to Butler Chen: "It's normal for such good things to be expensive. Buy them all!"
Butler Chen hesitated for a moment, then told him the price, "Master, this price is not a little too high.
The goose eggs cost five taels of silver each, and the eggs and duck eggs also cost twenty taels of silver each. "
"What did you say? Five taels of silver each? Why is it so expensive?" Mrs. Chen asked in surprise.
"Madam, the little brother said that these poultry grew up drinking mountain spring water, eating refined grains and medicinal herbs, so they can lay such big eggs.
These rare items were originally supplied to the nobles in the capital. This is not a drought. There are refugees everywhere. These items cannot be transported, so we are planning to sell them here. "
After hearing this, Chen Shimei suddenly realized that this made sense.
He travels all over the country to do business, and he knows that good things in some places are specially sent to the palace, but they cannot be bought with money.
What's more, in these years, when the outside world is already in chaos, these things are even more rare.
He immediately said to Butler Chen: "Ask them how much they have left and buy them all."
Mrs. Chen hesitated for a while and said: "Master, we still have a lot of bacon in the cellar. You should buy a little more. This meat is too expensive."
Although their family is not short of money, this little money is nothing to them, but who wants to be taken advantage of? This meat and eggs are dozens of times more expensive than outside.
Chen Shimei was a little impatient. This lady was good at everything, but she was a bit petty and not as grand as a sweet lady.
It's a pity that Jiao Niang has poor health and has not been able to give birth to a son and a half daughter for him after all this time.
Mrs. Chen glanced at her son, how could she not know what he was thinking? If he wanted that bitch to have a child, there was no way.
Her eldest grandson is so outstanding, and this family will belong to her grandson from now on. That bitch wants to be the head of their Chen family, but he doesn't look in the mirror to see if she is worthy?
But she didn't show it and couldn't let her son know that she was the one who gave Wang Jiaoniang the infertility medicine.
She patted her daughter-in-law's hand and said gently: "It's worth spending a little more money for us to come across such a good thing. Besides, where is our family short of this money?"
Then he said to Butler Chen: "Go ahead and buy them all. Then let the kitchen pickle the meat and eggs and save them for my eldest grandson."
"Yes, madam."
Butler Chen walked to the door and said with a smile: "I have kept the three young brothers waiting for a long time. Our master said that we want all the things in the car. If you still have them, you can bring them over. How many are there?" Whatever you want, the price will be as you say.”
Ye Yutong said with a smile: "That's all for today. The rest have been ordered by other companies. But there will be the last batch of goods tomorrow. If you want it, then I will tell the boss and keep it all for you." ."
"Oh, thank you so much, little brother!"
When Chen San saw that they had made the decision, he called the servants in the house to come over and move things.
Li Yunze and Ye Mingzhe had already inventoried their things.
After asking the Chen family's servants to check it out, Butler Chen came over with two boys carrying a small wooden box.
There were twelve gold ingots in it, a whole box. Li Yunze looked at the number and closed the box.
Butler Chen and Chen San sent the two to the door, and Ye Mingzhe took two baskets from the carriage.
These two baskets of eggs were prepared by my sister for the two housekeepers. Each basket contained two goose eggs, four eggs, and four duck eggs.
"Steward Chen, Third Brother Chen, take these eggs back and feed them to the children at home."
Butler Chen said politely: "No, no, how can I get my brother's things?"
Ye Mingzhe said boldly: "Brothers, aren't you too polite? We think it's worth giving a few eggs to our two brothers because we are in love with each other. When we come to deliver the goods tomorrow night, we will bring some game to the brothers to try."
Butler Chen and Chen San took the basket from Ye Mingzhe with smiles on their faces.
The two sent them far away, talked about the character of the other families, and asked them to take precautions.
Ye Mingzhe thanked them gratefully: "The two brothers are really warm-hearted. When we pass by Qingzhou City while carrying things, we will definitely come and see these two brothers."
Chen San patted him on the shoulder and said, "Then it's settled. Next time you come, my brother will invite you to the restaurant."
When leaving, Li Yunze asked: "Manager Chen, we want to buy some salt to take back to our hometown. Do you have any connections?"
Chen San thought for a while and said, "How much do you want?"
"Three or four hundred pounds!"
"Okay, no problem. When you deliver the goods tomorrow night, you can just take them away." Chen San responded readily.
"Thank you, Manager Chen."
