Chapter 508: Really don't understand anything

Wang An licked his lips, sucked his teeth, nodded, and stood up.

No wonder this stall didn't even have a single onlooker. What kind of family is it? Can afford mushrooms at two mao per jin?

Although Wang An is not short of money, Wang An is not a fool! Seeing Wang An about to leave, this person couldn't hold on anymore and hurriedly said: "Big Brother, how about 1 mao 5 per jin, you weigh some?"

Wang An paused his steps and walked away with the horse without looking back.

After walking more than ten meters, Wang An discovered another person selling winter mushrooms. It must be admitted that any industry is the same; as long as there is money to be made, there will absolutely not be only one person doing it.

This time, the person selling winter mushrooms was an old lady, and next to her was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl.

Although the weather was warm, the girl was shivering with cold.

Just because the girl's cotton-padded jacket and cotton-padded trousers had many patches and looked very thin, the key was that they were also very small, exposing her wrists and ankles.

Perhaps many people don't understand what it's like to expose wrists and ankles; in fact, it means exposing them without any cover.

Because the vast majority of people in this era had no underwear, and autumn clothes and autumn trousers didn't exist either.

That is to say, many people were wearing cotton-padded jackets and cotton-padded trousers directly without any outer clothes! It must be admitted that Wang An had been wearing them like that until he was in junior high school.

Although cotton-padded jackets and trousers keep out the cold, if there are no close-fitting clothes to assist, to tell the truth, the feeling of cold wind drilling into the body from the ankles and wrists is genuinely quite uncomfortable!

Wang An stopped the big stallion again, walked up, and asked: "Grandma, how do you sell these winter mushrooms?"

After Wang An finished speaking, the old lady just smiled at Wang An without speaking, only heard the girl answer:

"Big Brother, my grandma can't speak and can't hear. These mushrooms are 4 fen per jin."

Upon hearing the girl's words, Wang An was stunned instantly. It wasn't because of the price of the winter mushrooms, but because he didn't expect that this old lady, who looked perfectly fine, was actually a deaf-mute.

However, this was not something Wang An should care about, so Wang An was stunned for a moment and said:

"How many jin are these two baskets of winter mushrooms in total? I want them all."

This time it was the girl's turn to be stunned. The girl said with great surprise:

"All, you want them all? Then, then I'll go borrow a scale..."

Wang An nodded: "Indeed, go."

After Wang An finished speaking, the girl ran out.

However, soon, the girl came back with a hook scale.

The fresh winter mushrooms were packed in baskets, and because they were very fluffy, they were not very heavy. After weighing, including the weight of the baskets, it was less than 60 jin in total; to be precise, it was a little over 58 jin.

The girl said: "Big Brother, look, you take something to hold it, and we'll weigh how heavy these two baskets are."

Wang An thought for a while, took out a "Big Unity" (10-yuan note) and handed it over, and said:

"I don't have anything to hold it either, so sell me these two baskets too. You go buy two more."

The girl knew how to calculate, and while reaching out to hand the money to Wang An, said:

"Big Brother, every time I weigh this basket, one is a little over four jin. Why don't you give me two yuan? I don't have money to give change."

Looking at the girl's proficiency and calculation speed, Wang An suddenly felt that this girl would definitely be a material for doing business in the future.

The price of the two baskets was 6 fen, and the winter mushrooms weighing a little over 48 jin were about 1.94 yuan. Calculated, it was basically two yuan, which could be said that no one suffered a loss.

It must be said that this account was absolutely fine.

Wang An smiled, didn't take the money, but loaded the two baskets onto the horse cart while saying: "Then don't give change, just count it."

After Wang An finished speaking, he led the horse cart and left. The girl might not have experienced this kind of thing either, so she was stunned for a moment before hurriedly shouting: "Big Brother, then where can I find you later?"

Wang An waved his hand without looking back and continued to move forward leading the horse.

And the girl, clutching the money, looked at Wang An's back, not knowing what she was thinking in her head.

Wang An discovered that since he was reborn, he had been changing. Sometimes Wang An felt that he was not himself.

Because sometimes, he would inexplicably have some good thoughts, wanting to help others from the bottom of his heart.

To tell the truth, this is an incredible and deeply terrifying thing.

Why is this?

Following that, Wang An bought a lot of pork, not wild boar meat, but domestic pork. However, to be precise, it was pork bones, including ribs, spine bones, and leg bones.

Mainly because the meat was sold out, leaving only the bones that no one would spend money to buy in this era.

In fact, in Wang An's view, gnawing on bones is much more satisfying than eating meat.

After buying the bones, he bought 40 buns, and Wang An drove the horse cart straight to Fang Xiue's house.

Opened the gate, drove the horse cart directly into the yard, fed the two horses with forage, and then Wang An started to cook in the room.

Just as Wang An stewed the bones in the pot and was washing the winter mushrooms, Fang Xiue returned riding a bicycle.

As soon as Fang Xiue entered the room, she said:

"Xiao An, are you stewing meat? Why is it so fragrant?"

Wang An suddenly discovered that the bones today might not be eaten at noon, because bones, it is impossible to be cooked in a short time.

So Wang An said with a very wretched smile:

"Indeed, stewed big bones, but this is for you to eat at night. Let's just eat buns at noon, and after eating the buns, let's get down to business quickly."

To tell the truth, perhaps because of drinking deer blood and the medicine Fang Xiue prepared for him for the past few days, even if Wang An went to Shen Wei's place every day for the past two days, Wang An still felt suffocated, very suffocated! So Wang An at this time was really suffering from internal heat and urgently needed to vent it.

Just when Wang An was pondering whether to do business first or eat first.

Fang Xiue took out the white coat she wore at work from a cloth bag and said while putting it on: "You don't know what's in your head, do you? I look good in this?"

Wang An was instantly stunned by Fang Xiue's actions.

It looked good, but the key was that the clothes hadn't been taken off yet, so why put on the white coat first?

Wang An realized that Fang Xiue had misunderstood his meaning before; she didn't understand what he wanted at all! Therefore, Wang An hurriedly stopped her: "Wait a minute, wait a minute, why wear it now? Take it off quickly, let's eat first."

Upon hearing this, Fang Xiue blinked, her face full of confusion, but she very obediently took off the white coat again.

Eating buns doesn't require dishes, so after the two finished the buns, they went into the room regardless.

After the two were all naked, Wang An pointed to the white coat and said to Fang Xiue: "Now put it on."

Fang Xiue was confused again and asked subconsciously: "Are you sick? It's so obstructive to wear it!"

Wang An patted Fang Xiue's snow-white skin and said helplessly:

"You really don't understand anything; just do as I say..."
