Su Tang thought that the family knelt down for themselves. Unexpectedly, they said they would sell their bodies together. When Su Tang heard this, she took a look at Hu Sulan, who was kneeling beside her mother.
The little girl was ten years old, like Sutang, two months younger than sucang. Because of the poverty of the family, some people were skinny, and her clothes were patched with patches, but they were very clean.
If you can live a good life, who is willing to sell himself as a slave? Hu Daniao's eyes are red, but he has already made up his mind: "Miss Su, our family can make a living. If you buy us, we will be loyal to you in the future. In the future, we will do a good job for you."
As he said it, he kowtowed again. Four people knocked their heads on the ground, not to mention how Su Tang was. When Su Nuo saw them like this, his eyes were red and he took sucang "sister!"
Su Tang sighs in her heart when she sees her younger brother like this. She can't bear to look at this scene. She shakes her head at Sunuo. Seeing her sister like this, Su Nuo purses her mouth and dare not speak.
"Don't worry about it. What kind of food are you helping Huang Xing with and how much money is needed? I remember that you still have a mu of thin farmland at home, which is worth some money."
Su Tang didn't rush to answer, but asked the question first. Huang Xing is a restaurant. Even if he needs food materials, how much silver can Hu Daniu deliver? Is it worth the whole family to sell themselves?
We should know that although the Hu family lived in poverty, they had farmland. Although they had only one mu of thin farmland, they could sell it for four Liang silver. This money is quite a lot for ordinary farmers.
Hu Daniu heard Su Tang ask, hand Hulu's face "sold is not enough, it's ten Liang short!"
Su sugar was surprised to open his eyes, "how many liang, what ingredients are you transporting?" 17 Novels www.17xs.net
Although Fuxing building in Huangxing is the most luxurious restaurant in Qinghe town, its business is very busy. However, the market of Qinghe town is so large, and Hu Daniu is still responsible for the food materials of tens of Liang silver. Does Fuxing building have such a large consumption capacity?
At this time, Hu Daniao also told Su Tang that "it's the fish that came from Qingzhuo county. Yes, it's Abalone!"
"Are you sure?" When Su Tang heard that Hu Daniu said it was abalone, she felt even more puzzled.
Although it was relatively backward at this time, there was a special way to preserve sea cucumber and abalone. Sea cucumber and abalone, which are expensive seafood, are basically made into dry goods by the sea and then transported to inland for sale, because it is easy to preserve.
Moreover, this method is not only thought of by people, but has been popularized. The only place near Qinghe town by sea is Qingzhuo county. It takes nearly three days for the county seat of Qingzhuo county to come to Qinghe town by carriage, and it will take two and a half days as soon as possible.
For such a distance, it is not suitable to transport fresh abalone with ice. Although the dried abalone tastes a little worse, the cost is much lower, and it can be retained for a longer time. All of them are in business. This is how to control the cost.
Huang Xing sent a group of people all the way to deliver frozen abalone, which naturally costs a lot of money. Moreover, when the abalone arrives, it must be cooked and eaten as soon as possible, or it will not be fresh.
But when someone from Qinghe town wants to eat so much abalone seafood, sucang's finger gently taps on the table, which is obviously wrong.
"Have you seen your shipment? What does it look like?" Su Tang asked Hu Daniao again.
Hu Daniao then said, "I saw a few of them outside…"
