"Twenty pounds." Gu Yundong repeated, not knowing what they were trying to do with this expression.
The shopkeeper's brows furrowed, "Girl, are you here to make trouble, twenty pounds? Do you know how much it costs?"
"How much?"
"Twenty-five cents for one tael of sugar!!" The shopkeeper sneered, "Can you buy it? Twenty pounds for one mouth."
Gu Yundong knew that white sugar and brown sugar were quite expensive, but he bought caramel candy on the street as a snack for two children, and caramel was a little cheaper.
Before Xuanhe Fufucheng, when he went to the grocery store to buy oil, salt, and vermicelli, he forgot to buy sugar.
I remember when I went back to Aunt Ke's house to count things. I wanted to buy it at the time. Aunt Ke said that sugar was expensive, and I didn't need much. I have it at home, so let him use it at home.
Gu Yundong did not refuse, but the white sugar Cousin Ke released was actually not pure white sugar, it was only brighter than brown sugar. But he only used it as a seasoning when cooking, and it was only boiled pork, and the others were rarely used.
Later, when he arrived at Yongfu Village, he never thought of buying candy, especially since it was uncomfortable. I forgot to go to the city and county a few times, so when I used sugar, I could only take it from the room when Dong was not paying attention.
Fortunately, Madam Dong had no idea what she was carrying when she came from Fucheng, and she was not as sharp as Aunt Ke.
I came here specifically to buy it today. I didn't expect it to be so hard to buy 20 pounds of white sugar.
And. very expensive.
But after hearing what the shopkeeper said, Gu Yundong was not happy anymore, "You don't care if I can afford it, do you have it in your grocery store? I can't go anywhere else to buy it."
The shopkeeper let out a cold snort and asked the man to go to the warehouse behind to pick it up, and he walked over to the counter and played the abacus, "One tael and twenty-five cents, twenty pounds costs eight taels of silver, son, you have enough money. But?"
"enough."
"This girl has a big voice. He actually wanted to buy 20 catties of white sugar, which was very valuable."
"Don't be pretentious, you see the clothes on his body, it looks like he's from the countryside, and it's not bad to have eight cents on his body, and eight taels of silver."
"Let's see what you say later."
So some people who had bought good things did not leave, they only saw Gu Yundong.
Shao Qingyuan stood at the door and did not enter, not knowing what was going on inside. Just to see that Gu Yundong had not been out for a long time, he turned his head to look inside, and when he saw that he was fine, he turned around again.
The man there quickly took out a large bag of white sugar and placed it in front of Gu Yundong, with an arrogant attitude, "This, we are all here, do you want to put it on the scales?"
Gu Yundong opened the bag and glanced down, his expression suddenly becoming complicated.
This ... is also considered white sugar?
"The shopkeeper, all I want is a very white sugar, like Baiyun, is this too dark?"
The shopkeeper suddenly came out from behind the counter, put the bag together and put it behind him, "What are you talking about, you need very white sugar, say, this is the best. What the hell are you doing? Buy it or not? Give it to me if you don't buy it."
The spit will come out, "You see our shop is fine, and you are sincerely making trouble. I'll say, you're very poor and you want to buy 20 catties of white sugar without looking at the world. If you have the ability, you can find a white sugar like Baiyun for me, and if you find it, I'll buy it back at ten times the price."
After he finished speaking, he came to push Gu Yundong, Shao Qingyuan stepped forward, grabbed his hand, and looked at him coldly.
Gu Yundong was also annoyed, "You haven't seen the world yet, so I'll make it for you to see, then don't forget what you said."
Liu Wei heard his last words as soon as he came.
