017 Gu Qing Gets Beaten
Gu Qing sat at the door of her home and waited all morning with her neck stretched out. It was not until noon that she saw a group of people following Gu Yu and Gu Nuo, walking towards her home.
"Ms. Gu, do you really harvest mushrooms at your house?"
"Take it, really take it!" Gu Qing smiled so enthusiastically that her face almost burst into laughter.
"Mrs. Gu, how much do I weigh here?"
"Ms. Gu, my eldest sister and I collected a basket together. What's the price?"
"I also picked a basket. My mother said it was at least five kilograms. Can I sell it for a lot of money?"
Gu Qing looked in front of him. There were more than a dozen backpacks and more than twenty baskets in front of him. They were all filled with various mushrooms, weighing at least seventy or eighty kilograms by visual inspection.
The mobility of this group of people is amazing. It seems that in the future, this kind of thing can be directly outsourced to the villagers.
She called Mo Li and three others to help classify and weigh the mushrooms by household. Gu Nuo and Gu Yu also picked a full basket and put it aside.
Gu Qing was carrying a stick that he had bought in advance at the mall. He smiled and said to the group of people in front of him: "Everyone, get your mushrooms and line them up. Come one by one!"
Zhao Daya is very sensible: "I'll line up here!"
Gu Da Niu also nodded: "Then I will line up behind you!"
Gu Qing thought he would have to spend some time, but he didn't expect these sensible villagers to be so proactive.
Everyone lined up the teams, Mo Li and Yang Pei were sorted, Zhu Han weighed them, and Gu Qing gave them money.
There are five members of Aunt Zhao’s family. Except for Uncle Zhao who works in the fields, the other four members of the family are all in the mountains. Her family picks the most mushrooms, a full twenty kilograms, and there are many porcini mushrooms among them.
Matsutake.
After Zhu Han finished the ceremony, Gu Qing read in front of everyone: "15 pounds of common mushrooms cost 225 coins, 5 pounds of porcini mushrooms cost 250 coins, and one or two matsutake mushrooms cost 525 coins, a total of 525 coins."
Gu Qing settled the money in front of everyone with a smile. Aunt Zhao took the money and couldn't close her mouth with laughter.
"Ms. Gu is indeed a capable person! You wait for me tonight, and I will pick another several dozen kilograms for you. And what is this matsutake? Why is it so valuable? Just 50 coins for each one?"
Aunt Zhao asked what everyone wanted to know, so Gu Qing took out the sample mushrooms he bought in the morning again:
"Everyone, watch out, folks, this is called Ganba fungus, it costs one hundred cents per catty, and this is Tricholoma matsutake. The reason why it is so expensive is because it is rare."
"Mrs. Gu, we have all taken note of it, please weigh my mushrooms quickly!" Aunt Gu, who was second in line, looked at the heavy copper plate in Aunt Zhao's hand and was already impatient.
"Okay, okay, don't worry, come one by one..."
After collecting mushrooms from several people, Gu Qing ran out of money, so she took the expensive mushrooms to the house to keep them on the pretext of keeping them, and then sold them directly to the mall.
The four people cooperated and moved very quickly. In less than half an hour, all the mushrooms were harvested.
All the aunts were nervous when they came, sometimes they couldn't close their mouths from ear to ear, and all of them praised Gu Qing for his ability.
After everyone left, Gu Qing took all the mushrooms into her room and sold them to the system at once. A total of 50 kilograms of ordinary mushrooms were collected, with a net profit of 750 Wen, 18 kilograms of porcini mushrooms, a net profit of 900 Wen, and a kilogram of matsutake mushrooms.
The net profit was 700 Wen, with a net profit of 100 Wen per kilogram of ganba mushrooms. She did not leave the house all morning, and she earned 2,450 Wen just by sitting at the door.
This does not include the mushrooms picked by Gu Yu and Gu Nuo. Most of the mushrooms picked by Gu Nuo and Gu Yu were valuable mushrooms. There were very few ordinary mushrooms. The largest boletus mushroom weighed ten kilograms and cost 1,000 Wen.
There are two kilograms of ganba mushrooms worth 400 yuan, but there are no matsutake mushrooms.
Gu Qing believed that the people who sold mushrooms to her at noon and got cash would help her spread the word. There must be many people selling mushrooms at night. Gu Qing felt like a pile of money was flying towards her, and she was very happy.
Mo Li nudged the two of them with his elbow and asked in a low voice: "How much money have we made? How happy is the head of the family?"
"I don't know. If the master doesn't tell me, it's best not to ask!" After Yang Pei finished speaking, he went to chop wood.
Zhu Han also hurried into the kitchen to cook. Seeing this, Mo Li picked up a bucket to fetch water. Gu Yu and Gu Nuo surrounded Gu Qing and asked happily: "Sister, will we never be hungry again in the future?"
Already?"
"That's necessary! Wait for the eldest sister to go to town tomorrow and sell all the mushrooms, and then come back with delicious snacks for you two!"
It would be nice if the mall could arrange for someone to pick up the goods, so she wouldn't have to drag the mushrooms to town.
Clicking on the virtual mall, he found that there was actually customer service at 'Me'. Gu Qing quickly asked if he could arrange for someone to come to purchase it.
Although this idea is a bit shocking, after all, the mall is virtual, how can it be possible to arrange a real collector for her.
But Gu Qing obviously underestimated the virtual mall.
The customer service of the virtual mall said that as long as the supply volume is large, real collectors can be arranged to come to purchase, but a certain service fee will be required.
The service fee for a real-person door-to-door service starts from one tael of silver.
Gu Qing was overjoyed. She didn't expect it to be possible, but the service fee was too expensive. She only earned 2,450 Wen from the mushrooms she collected in the morning, and the service fee only cost one tael. Isn't this robbery?
But then I thought about it, it would be easy for her to sell it in the town. After all, there must be someone to receive the mushrooms.
But no one in the town collects them, not to mention no one in the town, even in Fucheng, no one wants them. Who makes them think that mushrooms are the most popular on the mountain?
Their southern continent doesn't have much, except for mountains and a lot of mountain products. As the saying goes, if you rely on mountains and rivers to eat, Gujiacun is a good place. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers and has good harvests every year.
Today is a time of peace and prosperity, unlike in the past when wars were fought for years and the people were in dire straits.
But after all, they could not withstand natural and man-made disasters in other counties and prefectures of Daliang. This resulted in that even if there was a bumper harvest every year, the people in Gujia Village could still barely make ends meet like the people in other states after paying taxes.
After thinking about it, Gu Qing still placed the order and made an appointment for a real customer service person to come and collect the mushrooms tomorrow morning. This also saved her the time of running to town.
The story that Aunt Zhao got half a tael of silver from selling mushrooms at noon soon spread throughout Gujia Village.
Mrs. Gu was so angry that her legs and feet were weak. She picked up the broom at the door and ran over, pointing at Gu Qing's nose and scolding her.
"You bastard, you can't survive this day? No one wants mushrooms in this town for two cents per catty, and you charge 15 cents per catty? You prodigal thing, see if I don't teach your dead parents a lesson today.
you!"
It was okay for Gu Qing to split up the family because of the 500 taels of pension money for her parents. After all, it was money exchanged for her parents' lives. Gu Qing thought that Gu Yu and Gu Nuo were young, and Gu Qing herself was not married. Gu Qing
If the family really needed to be separated, Mrs. Gu would let her go.
After the separation, Gu Qing behaved wildly every day. She scolded her a few times, but Gu Qing would yell back at her, making her very angry.
Nowadays, this household thing is becoming more and more out of character. She even pays a high price for mushrooms that people don’t even need. How much wealth does this have to lose her? She is also wearing rags and has eaten two meals of meat.
Have you forgotten the days when you even dug out bad vegetables a few days ago?
The more Mrs. Gu thought about it, the angrier she became, and her attacks became more severe.
"Milk, breast! Don't hit, don't hit! Ouch..."
Mrs. Gu was nearly sixty years old, and she was kissing her grandma. Even if she was a prostitute, she would not dare to fight back, let alone Gu Qing.
Everyone in the family had to go down to the ground and go up the mountain. There was no one to stop him. Gu Qing could only dodge and explain.
"Mom, I'm not a prodigal. I'm really doing a serious business. If you don't believe it, the boss will come to harvest the mushrooms tomorrow morning. Will you come to see the success in person?"
"Oh...why do you keep fighting?"
