Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 911

Since the boy was smart and would not be fooled, Bajie canceled his plan to buy mushrooms at a very low price.

He pointed to the big bamboo basket and said, "There are several kinds of mushrooms in your basket. We will buy them according to the type."

Chen Jianmin nodded and said, "Indeed, Brother Bajie is a trustworthy person just as Uncle Li Chenmo said."

Upon hearing Li Chenmo’s name, Bajie asked in surprise, "Little brother, do you know brother Li Chenmo?"

"Well, I am the best friend of Uncle Li’s children. I often go to their house to play. These mushrooms were picked with Ah Li and Ah Huang," Chen Jianmin nodded.

Seeing that this boy knew Li Chenmo’s children so well, Bajie’s face instantly changed and a smile appeared on his face.

He patted Chen Jianmin on the shoulder and said, "Little brother, you should have told me earlier. In this way, we can save more time with pleasantries."

"Since we are a family, then you sell all of the mushrooms to me and I will give you 18 yuan per kilogram," he added, patting his chest.

When Chen Jianmin heard this, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. He knew that fresh mushrooms were more expensive than dried mushrooms because, despite being sold at the same price, they were much heavier.

In state-owned supply stores, a kilogram of dried mushrooms sells for 20 yuan. If sold to a supply store, the maximum price is 11 yuan per kilogram. Therefore, the price given by Houzi’s men is indeed much higher.

When Bajie saw that the boy was silent, he thought he was dissatisfied with the price. He sighed and thought, ’No wonder this boy has a close relationship with Brother Li’s family. He looks so much like my sister-in-law when negotiating prices!’

Before Chen Jianmin agreed to the price, he heard Bajie say, "20 yuan per kilogram! I can’t give you more, otherwise we won’t make anything."

Although Chen Jianmin was surprised by his words, his face remained calm. He looked at him with a smile and nodded, "Thank you, brother."

Now that an agreement was reached, Bajie quickly weighed the mushrooms and counted the money.

"A total of 17.7 kilograms, 354 yuan. I will round up to 360 yuan for you," he said and handed over a wad of money.

Chen Jianmin took the money and said, "Thank you, brother. Then I won’t disturb you."

Before Chen Jianmin left, Bajie said, "Little brother, if you have more mushrooms in the future, give them to this family. Someone will come to pick your mushrooms and give you money."

"Okay." Chen Jianmin nodded.

After he left, Bajie checked the mushrooms and said with a smile, "This batch of fresh mushrooms is very good. One kilogram can be sold for 50 yuan."

"I don’t know. But he was very good-looking. As soon as I saw him I thought he was a girl," Bajie said after thinking for a moment. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

"20 yuan per kilogram."

After hearing what he said, Houzi nodded and said, "When he comes again, I will ask my cousin to keep the mushrooms for us."

"These mushrooms were grown on the mountain near Brother Li’s pig pen. The quality of these mushrooms is much better than other mushrooms and can be sold for 70 yuan per kilogram. So, if he comes again, give him 30 yuan per kilogram."

Although Bajie felt that twenty yuan was already expensive, he still nodded, "Okay."

"Okay, we need to move quickly. The Li family still has a batch of food," Houzi added.

Not long after Houzi and the others left the Lu family, Xu Bohai and the others arrived with several carts of food. When Lu Cheng and Lu Han saw them coming, they quickly opened the door to the backyard and helped them move the cart.

After entering the house, Xu Bohai handed a list to Lu Cheng and said, "Brother Cheng, these are the grains list. You can check the amount first."

Lu Cheng waved his hand and said, "No need. Brother Xu, I believe you won’t lie to me."

Hearing this, Xu Bohai just glanced at them meaningfully but didn’t say much.
