As time goes by, tea eggs gradually reach the point where women and children know each other in Kaiyuan County.
Even if I have never eaten tea eggs, I have heard of the name of tea eggs. Even among the people, many people are proud of being able to eat tea eggs. How to show off the deliciousness of tea eggs to their neighbors, making the name of tea eggs even more and more famous.
Similarly, as tea eggs are selling well everywhere, the prices of eggs on the market are slowly rising.
But the fluctuation is not large, but at least the price of eggs is stable at around five or six cents, unlike before, when it has been three cents, and it may not be sold.
Of course, many people are reluctant to sell this price.
After all, the price is too low, so it is better to keep it for the children at home, but it is different if you spend five cents.
Since many families have used the method of raising chickens by Niu Dali, the hens are not only fat, but the eggs laid are big and round. Even if these chickens do not lay eggs every day, they can still collect about one pound of eggs every day, which is an unexpected gain for many families.
Not to mention those families who raise a lot of chickens, they can wake up laughing in their dreams just by collecting eggs in one day.
But because there are so many people selling eggs, the price of eggs has dropped sharply from the original seven or eight cents to four or five cents. It would be fine if it could be sold for four or five cents, but they would not be so panicked. But the difficulty is that it may not be able to be sold at this price when you get it in the town, because there are too many people selling it.
In order to collect low-priced eggs, some unscrupulous merchants even spread rumors that they would not sell for two cents and would not be able to sell at this price in a few days. Such rumors are becoming more and more intense in various villages.
Some people are hesitant, while others would rather leave it for their families than sell it at a low price, but some people are still anxious to sell eggs at a low price.
Just when many people were unsure, Niu Dali collected eggs for six cents and suddenly spread all over the village. At first, he only collected them in Xinghua Village, which made many people from other villages depressed.
But some families who are related to Xinghua Village are ready to move and ask their in-laws to sell the eggs to Niu Dali. As a result, the status of those married Xinghua Village girls in their in-laws has been improved again.
Until later, Niu Dali collected a large number of eggs in ten miles of villages, which made many villages excited and rushed to sell eggs. Some villages far away would even have many people gathered in ox carts to sell eggs.
Nowadays, the price of eggs is gradually returning to five or six cents, and even after being sold in Suiye Town, it can be sold for seven cents per catty, but many people are still willing to sell eggs to Niu Dali.
It’s not because they remember Niu Dali’s kindness, but because Niu Dali collects a large number of eggs. Instead of slowly selling them to the town, it’s better to sell them at Niu Dali’s house at one time.
Of course, many people still remember the good things about Niu Dali's family. After all, everyone knows that the reason why the price of eggs has risen is that Niu Dali's family wants to sell tea eggs, and it is still expensive.
I heard that a tea egg costs 17 or 8 cents. In the eyes of many people, this is simply a sky-high price. You should know that a pound of pork costs only 14 or 5 cents, while an egg is even more expensive than a pound of pork.
There are some envious people, and there are also some jealous people, but more people are still grateful to Niu Dali.
Niu Dali was not stingy and generously told them how to raise chickens, so that they could fatten chickens, and now that their eggs were sold at a low price.
Therefore, Niu Dali's reputation is quite famous in the villages, even more than He Chongda's name as a constable.
After all, it is considered by many people that He Chongda is someone else's business, but Niu Dali is giving them real benefits.
Therefore, many people are eager to sell Niu Dali's tea eggs as much as possible, so that the eggs they have in their hands can be sold.
It also made many people secretly regret it. Why didn’t I raise more chickens at the time?
In the blink of an eye, it was mid-December, and there were not as many villagers coming to sell eggs a few days ago. Niu Dali had already expected this situation.
Nowadays, egg prices in many places are generally as high as 60 cents, while the villages around Xinghua Village are the highest, all of which are as high as 8 cents. Some distant villages are too troublesome to come, and the nearby villages earn two cents less, so they are not sold.
Of course, some villagers also felt that it was troublesome to sell them in the town, so they sold the eggs to Niu Dali.
But although the prices of eggs in the surrounding villages generally rebounded, Niu Dali still collected eggs for six cents. It was not because he made too much money these days and did not plan to make any more money. But now the popularity of tea eggs in various places is gradually decreasing.
In the past, they sold as much tea eggs as they made, and sometimes they could not provide them to too many restaurants, but now there is often an oversupply.
However, Niu Dali was not worried about this. Anyway, he couldn't sell it, so he would take the leftover tea eggs to Kaiyuan County to sell them.
"Brother Dali, these five baskets of tea eggs have been left for two days. It won't be a problem to sell them in the town, right?" Li Xianglan said with concern when she saw Wang Shihu and Yang Zi move the five baskets of tea eggs to the ox cart.
"I just ate two, isn't it okay?" Niu Dali smiled honestly, "Xianglan, don't underestimate the rich people in the county. They often have big fish and meat, and their bodies are very healthy than us. Not to mention that they have been left for two days, I think it's okay to leave for five days!"
"How can I eat it for so long?" Li Xianglan covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Brother Niu, sister-in-law, we're leaving." Wang Shihu and Yang Zi got on the carriage and said goodbye.
"Remember to say hello to Zhongda on my behalf. Thanks to him for helping us sell tea eggs these days!" Li Xianglan shouted.
"knew!"
Wang Shihu responded and drove the ox cart away.
...
In the afternoon, after Wang Shihu and Yang Zi came back from the town, Niu Dali gathered everyone in the main room. Yang Zi and the others were puzzled, and Li Xianglan walked out of the inner room.
Niu Dali nodded, and Li Xianglan handed over several money bags to Wang Shihu and others.
Wang Shihu and his friends opened the money bag and saw that they were all shocked. There were shaking silver inside, and they counted a total of fifteen taels of silver.
Yang Zi said: "Brother Niu, are you?"
Niu Dali said in an unquestionable tone: "What are you doing when you ask so much, just ask you to take it, this is what you deserve!"
Wang Shihu and others looked at each other, hesitating whether to accept it.
They just helped Brother Niu, and Brother Niu gave them so much money. You must know that it is only a few taels a month to be a shopkeeper in the town.
Li Xianglan smiled and said, "You can take it. If it weren't for your help these days, Brother Dali and I wouldn't be so relaxed, let alone selling tea eggs to several towns."
