Chapter 281: Transaction with Xu Huizhen

"Ok."

Soon Xu Huizhen brought over a bowl and two pairs of chopsticks.

Li Jiayi opened the lunch box containing rice, poured half into the bowl, left the other half in the lunch box, and then placed it in front of the two little girls.

"Eat it!"

The two children were very sensible. They looked up at their mother first, and then started eating when they saw her nod.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Just at this moment, Niu Ye came in from outside and saw Li Jiayi as soon as he came in.

He quickly walked over and said, "Master Li, why are you here?"

"Uncle Niu, are you here to drink too?"

"Yes."

"Uncle Niu, do you know this young man?" Xu Huizhen asked.

"Yes." Niu Ye nodded and asked, "What's going on?"

"Uncle Niu, it's like this. These meals belong to this young man. I wanted to buy them from him, but he refused to sell them to me. He just wanted the kids to eat instead."

"Hahaha, Xu Huizhen, you've found the wrong person this time. Who is Master Li? How could he be short of such a small amount of money from you?"

"Uh!"

"No, no, I'm just an ordinary person." Li Jiayi said quickly.

When Master Niu saw the braised pork and pork head on the table, he also swallowed and said, "I guess only Master Li can eat such a meal."

Although Niu Ye was not familiar with Li Jiayi, he could tell from the words of the trust store owner that Li Jiayi was not short of money at all.

Also, when others were selling, he was buying. What kind of concept is that?

This is not just about having enough money, but being extremely rich. Although he is very young, the owner of the trust store calls him Master Li.

"Uncle Niu, please sit down and have a drink together." Li Jiayi said.

"Forget it. How am I going to compete with the kids for food?"

Uncle Niu still has this kind of vision, even though he is extremely greedy.

Unfortunately, that was not the case at all! Li Jiayi asked him to drink with him, but he did not ask him to eat with him.

Needless to say, it was Uncle Niu who misheard, and it couldn't be blamed on him. I guess anyone would hear the same thing when seeing the braised pork and pork head.

"Master Niu, if you don't want to fight over the food, just drink together."

"That's a good feeling. Okay, let's drink together."

"Please wait a minute, I'll get something." Li Jiayi said and ran outside again.

After staying on the tricycle for a while, I had two more oil paper bags in my hands.

The food has just been taken, so it seems a bit fake to take it now, but don’t forget that Li Jiayi has other things!
For example, beef jerky is a good thing to eat with alcohol, and there are also spiced peanuts.

To be honest, the peanuts in the tavern were really not that good, at least they had no taste for Li Jiayi.

How can it be compared with his five-spice peanuts? They are simply not on the same level.

Putting the oil paper bag on the eight-immortal table, Li Jiayi walked to the counter and said, "Another beer, and then four ounces of white wine."

"Ok."

Just as Li Jiayi was about to pay, Xu Huizhen came over and said, "This drink is on me."

Li Jiayi was not a pretentious person, so he nodded and said, "Okay, it's yours."

Back at the Eight Immortals Table, the two little girls were eating happily. Li Jiayi smiled, handed the white wine pot to Master Niu and said, "Come on, Master Niu, give me four ounces first, and ask for more if it's not enough."

"Enough is enough!"

Li Jiayi opened the two oil paper packages, revealing the beef jerky and spiced peanuts inside.

Niu Ye swallowed and asked, "Is this dried meat?"

"Yes, beef jerky. Come and try it."

"it is good."

The beef jerky made by Li Jiayi is not as dry as the fake beef jerky sold in convenience stores in later generations. It is pure beef jerky with a chewy texture.

He didn't take out much, only about half a pound.

"Come on, Manager Xu, how about trying some of the beef jerky I made?" Li Jiayi said to Xu Huizhen.

"Did you do this yourself?"

"Yes, sometimes we can't finish the beef, so we make it into beef jerky, which is easier to store."

After hearing what Li Jiayi said, some people wanted to beat him up. Is this human language?

Others may not be able to eat meat for half a year, but he makes the leftover meat into beef jerky.

But what he said was true, which could be seen from the fact that he took out the braised pork and pork head.

And all this meat was just his dinner, yet he still carried beef jerky with him.

How afraid are you that you won’t have meat to eat!
The most important thing is that the rice in his lunch box was made of refined rice.

Others couldn't even get enough whole grains! He even ate refined rice.

This stuff can’t be bought even with money now. You should know that the rice sold at four or five yuan per pound on the black market is just brown rice.

It is commonly known as 92 rice, the kind that produces 92 kilograms of rice from 100 kilograms of rice.

"Thank you!" Xu Huizhen pinched a piece and tasted it, and her eyes lit up.

It’s not because I get to eat meat, but because this beef jerky is really delicious.

"Come on, Master Niu, have a drink."

"it is good."

Niu Ye had no objection to Li Jiayi drinking beer, after all, Li Jiayi was young.

If it was an adult, I guess Niu Ye wouldn't be happy to do it with him. In Niu Ye's opinion, this beer is for women to drink, it has no strength at all.

After drinking two beers, Li Jiayi no longer felt hungry. Instead, the two of them ate up all the beef jerky and peanuts.

"Manager Xu."

"What do you want, Master Li?"

"No, please don't call me Master Li. That's what other people call me." Li Jiayi said quickly, shaking his head.

"Then what should I call you?"

"You can just call me Xiao Li."

"That won't do. Master Niu calls you Master Li, so how dare I not call you Master Li? If others hear me, they will think I am ignorant."

"Hungry!"

"Okay, Master Li, this is the rule, especially for people doing business, so don't worry about it." Master Niu said.

"Okay!" Li Jiayi nodded, then looked at Xu Huizhen and said, "Manager Xu, I want to exchange something with you."

"Oh! I have something here that may please Master Li."

Li Jiayi pointed to the wine pot and beer glass in front of him and said, "Authentic Niulanshan Erguotou, and this wheat beer."

"Master Li, do you want this?"

"Yes, there's nothing we can do! No matter what kind of wine I give my grandfather, he won't drink it. He just likes this one." Li Jiayi said, pointing to the white wine pot.

Xu Huizhen smiled and said, "The wines you got should all be good!"

"Yeah! That's right."

"That's right. Okay, how much do you want? I don't have much left."

"How much do you think you can give me?" Li Jiayi asked.

"How about this, let's talk inside." Xu Huizhen pointed to the back door.

Li Jiayi looked around the tavern and realized that this was not the place to discuss matters, so he nodded and said, "Okay."

"Would you mind taking me with you?" Uncle Niu suddenly asked.

"Uncle Niu, if you want to come in, no one can stop you." Xu Huizhen said with a smile.

"You can talk, let's go."

Who is Xu Huizhen? How could she not be able to speak?

When they arrived at the backyard, they sat down at the stone table in the yard. Cai Quanwu immediately came over with a teapot and poured tea for each of them.

"Nothing, you sit down too." said Uncle Niu.

"Don't bother me, Master Niu. My wife is the boss of our family. Whatever she says goes."

"You!"

If it were someone else, Niu Ye would definitely say that it was a hopeless case, but for Tsai Quan-wu, Niu Ye would definitely not say that.

Because he knew very well what kind of person Cai Quanwu was. Although he didn't look like the head of the family, he could make decisions on all matters at home.

"Okay, Uncle Niu, let's not talk about this for now. Let's talk to Uncle Li about the wine first." Xu Huizhen said.

"Yes, yes, look at me."

"Manager Xu, I only want wine. You can have meat or food if you want."

"Master Li, I still have six jars of wine here, each weighing 100 kilograms. Please leave one for me, and you can take the rest. As for the beer, we'll only have the ones in the store today. How about this? You tell me the number, and you can come over the day after tomorrow and take them away."

Li Jiayi knew that Xu Huizhen was waiting for someone to deliver the beer tomorrow. Even if she told them the quantity they wanted, the earliest it could be delivered would be the day after tomorrow.

"I want all five jars of Erguotou. Give me ten barrels of beer! What do you want first?"

Xu Huizhen and Niu Ye looked at each other and said, "I want pork, and also white flour."

"can."

Although Li Jiayi's grain and meat are now expensive, the same goes for wine!

So no one suffered any loss.

"Master Li, I'll charge you two yuan per pound for liquor, and twenty yuan per barrel for beer, based on the purchase price. What do you think?"

"No problem. My pork is 10 yuan per pound, and my flour is 4 yuan per pound. What do you think?"

"No problem." Xu Huizhen was very happy.

As for liquor, she could still get it because she had relatives there. Of course, all the liquor was the winery's stock.

Wine can be obtained, but meat and grain are really hard to come by! Especially flour.

Five jars of liquor weigh 500 jin, and two yuan per jin is exactly one thousand yuan. A barrel of beer costs twenty yuan, and ten barrels cost two hundred yuan, which adds up to exactly one thousand two hundred yuan.

Xu Huizhen asked for 50 kilograms of pork, which cost 500 yuan, and the rest should be all flour.

Li Jiayi thought about it and directly gave her 180 kilograms, which was 5 kilograms more.

Of course, Xu Huizhen didn’t want all the meat and flour by herself, Niu Ye also got some.

As for how they divided it and what Niu Ye gave to Xu Huizhen, it had nothing to do with Li Jiayi.

After the discussion, Li Jiayi said, "How about this! I'll go get the stuff over here. I'll take the liquor away first, and come back the day after tomorrow to get the beer."

"can."

As for why Li Jiayi needed so much beer, neither Xu Huizhen nor Niu Ye asked.

You know, it’s all fresh beer now! Basically, it’s delivered and drunk on the same day.

But this is not a problem for Li Jiayi because he has a still space!

The most important thing is that it also has ice cubes. When the weather is hot, add some ice cubes to the beer glass to make it taste more refreshing.

When Li Jiayi came out from the backyard, the two little girls had just finished their meal, put away their lunch boxes, and drove away on their tricycle.

After walking around outside for about twenty minutes, Li Jiayi came back, but he did not go back to the tavern, but walked to the alley next to it.
