How much is garlic? Four dollars and twenty-four cents.

How much is garlic? The original version of $4.24 is as follows:

Scene: Jingzhou Ancient City, Hubei Province? Wandering stalls in alleys. Role A: A middle-aged farmer looks like a stall owner, holding a straw hat and a pair of snakeskin bags with a pile of garlic on them. Role B: A middle-aged woman comes to buy garlic. Dialogue: Jingzhou local accent. Note: Some people can't tell four from ten, which is a misunderstanding caused by dialects. Role a: selling garlic? Sell garlic, home-grown garlic! Very cheap! Role B: Brother, how much is this garlic? How much is a catty?

Role A: Sister, she grows it at home and it's cheap. Four dollars! Said and held out four fingers. Role b: how much is it? Ten dollars? Brother, you are a rare person. Why do you have so many fingers? A slap on a bunch of fingers? Role A: Sister, are you dizzy? Not ten dollars, but four dollars. Role b: what? Twenty-four dollars Don't shake your hands, I'm dizzy. Your price is outrageous, isn't it?

Role A: Sister, it's not 24 yuan, it's 4 yuan. Role B: You talk too much (nonsense), and I am so angry. Even if you plant it yourself, it won't cost 74 yuan. Role a: in a hurry, he said impatiently, it's not 74 yuan. That is four dollars.

Role B: 94 yuan? Oh, you're killing people! Role A: Flushed and impatient, he said, does this count? Role b: ah. I don't want your garlic, no matter how big it is. You are dishonest in business. Role A: In desperation, he overthrew the stall and said, I don't want to learn Mandarin. It's really hard to break into this world. . . The curtain fell (against the wall, soft).
