300. Reclamation fee
At this time, the store brought a bowl of water up and put it in front of Xiao Qian, Xiao Qian picked it up and took a sip gently, and the store reminded him to be careful of scalding.
Xiao Qian smiled and said a word of thanks, and asked with a smile: "Big brother, I think it's very strange, you open such a restaurant here, how is the business?"
"Alas, the little brother can also see that there is no business here, and opening such a restaurant is just a way to do it, it is better than being starved to death at home!"
After Xiao Qian listened to this person's words, he was a little strange, in his image, as long as he had labor, he would not be starved to death no matter where he went, this person obviously had no spiritual power fluctuations, just an ordinary person, but it seemed that his body was okay, even if he was farming at home, he would not starve to death.
So, Xiao Qian asked strangely, "How can this be? I see that you can't sell a few bowls of wine a day here, so why don't you go home and farm?"
"Farming, hehe, I think the little brother must be a foreigner, and he doesn't know the farming market here!" the man said with a helpless smile.
Xiao Qian asked strangely, "Is there still a market for this?"
"That's right! Don't look at this large piece of land, which is usually barren, but as soon as you open up a piece, it won't be long before someone comes to you to ask for money. ”
"Wasteland reclamation fee? This land is all wasted, and there are still people who come to ask for wasteland reclamation fees?" Xiao Qian felt that this term was a little fresh, and couldn't help but interject a sentence.
The man nodded, and continued: "These lands are all state, and private individuals are not allowed to open up the land without authorization, once you open it, naturally someone will come to you to collect the land reclamation fee, and you have to pay rent every year, and plant it for a year, in addition to these expenses, even a year's ration has become a problem, if you encounter a locust plague like this year, there is only a dead end." ”
"Locust plague?" Isn't Xiao Qian here for this locust plague? However, he has never seen a locust plague all the way, and he has seen a few locusts sporadically, which cannot become the climate at all, and the locusts he has seen are still eaten in his hometown, which is said to be low-fat and high-protein, and only those who have two dollars can afford to eat them.
"There are no locust plagues here for the time being, but it is said that they have appeared five hundred miles away, and they can destroy all the crops on the ground overnight, and people can only drink the northwest wind!"
Xiao Qian didn't think much of what this person said, and thought: I see that you are also going to drink the northwest wind here, and you don't have any business at all, who eats too much, and comes all the way here to drink your wine?
However, he suddenly felt that his words were debatable, wasn't he the kind of person who ate too much?
He took a big sip of water again and asked, "I really want to go and see the places where those locusts are infested, they are good things, and in our hometown, people often go to eat them!"
The man was stunned for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Where is your hometown? You can eat this thing? Don't laugh, they are poisonous, could it be that you have been eating poisonous things since you were a child, and you have developed a resistance to poison?"
Xiao Qian was stunned when she heard this, and thought to herself, what we eat there in our hometown, maybe you will never see it in your life!
Xiao Qian said: "I really want to go and see if those locusts can be eaten, if it really looks like my hometown, maybe I can do this business, not only to eliminate the locust plague for people, but also to make money, or a profitable thing." ”
The man glanced at Xiao Qian and said in disbelief, "Aren't you really joking?"
Xiao Qian nodded and said with a smile: "Really, maybe I relied on this to develop that day." ”
The man pointed ahead and said, "Go all the way here, pass two mountains, and walk two hundred miles." ”
Xiao Qian felt that this person was joking with him, and he didn't give him good guidance at all, as if he was going to point him to another place where there were no locusts, for fear that he would eat locusts and become a dead insect, but this person seemed to have a good heart!
Xiao Qian drank the water in the bowl, and then said, "Check out!"
The man smiled and said, "Guest officer, two cents!"
Xiao Qianyi was stunned, it was so expensive! Even if it was an exclusive operation, it couldn't be like this! However, he felt that what he had just said was a little pitiful, so he gave him the money, and then prepared to leave.
But at this moment, the big yellow horse suddenly neighed outside, as if he was a little excited.
Xiao Qian looked at it strangely, only to see the big yellow horse's front legs scratch the ground a few times, and I don't know why it can't stop at this time, is it possible that you still heard that you are a little reluctant to leave here? However, this place must be somewhat beautiful, just like a prairie, green grass, a few white clouds floating in the blue sky, but not far away is a long mountain beam, like a giant dragon lying on the ground basking in the sun, no head in front and no tail in the back. If you get some sheep in this underground, then even in a place like your hometown, you can develop tourism!
Xiao Qian thought to himself, the person had already left the tent and came to this grass, looking at the big yellow horse a little strangely.
At this time, Xiao Qian heard the sound of horses' hooves, and couldn't help but look at the sound of hooves, and then smiled, it turned out that this guy had met his companion and was so happy. Could it be that there are really people here who are full of food and come for a drink?
Sure enough, two fast horses galloped over, and it didn't take long for them to reach Xiaoqian not far away. The two horses were all snow-white, as if they had been cast in a mold.
However, the two horses suddenly stopped, and almost swept the man off the horse.
A voice suddenly screamed: "What's going on, why did it stop like this!"
The other voice smiled and said, "Yes!
Although the two were still some distance away from Xiao Qian, Xiao Qian heard the words of the two people clearly, and couldn't help laughing at himself, it seems that this ear is too good, and it is not a good thing. But he glanced at the big yellow horse and knew that the sudden emergency braking of the two horses must have something to do with it!
The people who came turned out to be a man and a woman, wearing gorgeous clothes, and at first glance they were not the children of ordinary people.
They waved their whips, but the horses stopped moving forward, and let you rattle and crackle, but they refused to go, and even began to retreat.
The two were so angry that they had to dismount, grabbed the reins, and pulled the horse over.
At this time, the shopkeeper also saw the customer coming, trotted over, greeted each other with a smile, and said, "Good morning, two of you!"
Listening to the tone of the shopkeeper, these two people seem to be regular customers here, and they must be very familiar with him. It seems that Xiao Qian's previous thoughts were completely wrong, saying that this person is drinking the northwest wind here, and if someone really comes here to drink. Where there is a good scenery, there are business opportunities, and there are good businessmen.
At this time, the two of them slowly walked towards the restaurant, and their horses had been pulled up by the shopkeeper and tied to two wooden stakes.
Xiao Qian only noticed at this time that not far away, there will be a wooden stake every other section, but the grass around it has been gnawed, much shallower, it seems that people often come here for sightseeing.
The two of them arrived at Xiao Qian's side unconsciously, and after taking a look at Xiao Qian, the woman suddenly looked at the big yellow horse and said, "Cousin, you see this horse, it looks like a wild one, and it has such a long mane, but it looks very good!"
The woman was plump, a little sexy, with very white skin, and a sunhat on her head, obviously very concerned about her skin. However, what makes Xiao Qian strange is that since he is afraid of the sun, why don't he travel in a carriage? However, after thinking about it, how can it be convenient to ride a horse by car, and there is no road at all in some places, just like this place, although it is very flat, but the wheels of the carriage are difficult to guarantee that they will not sink.
Xiao Qian was going to leave, but two people suddenly appeared, and he felt a little strange in his heart, and he stopped unconsciously.
"Yes, this horse is really good, maybe it's this kid, you see, although the horse is good, but it's so poor that he can't even afford a saddle!" said the man who was called his cousin, looking at Xiao Qian.
Xiao Qian doesn't like to hear others call him a kid, especially when this kind of person who is no more than two years older than him says it, which makes him feel that this person lacks a tutor. However, when I heard the woman call that person her cousin, and then looked at her figure, I couldn't help but think of a novel, what kind of girl is called...... It's still the heart of a young woman, and I don't remember it too clearly for a while.
"Cousin, I like this horse so much, ask him how much it costs, buy it!" said the woman squeamishly.
The man really asked Xiao Qian: "Boy, is this horse yours, how much does it cost?" Sell it to me!"
Xiao Qian heard this person call him a kid again, but he said flatly: "Lao Tzu doesn't sell!"
"Boy, how do you speak, do you know who Lao Tzu is?" The man heard Xiao Qian call himself Lao Tzu, and he was so angry that he couldn't help but say in a deep voice.
"I'll have to go back and ask your mother! Xiao Qian still said flatly, and there was even a little smile on his face.
The man didn't understand what he said for a while, and couldn't help asking, "What do you ask?"
"Ask me who you are!" Xiao Qian said a little angrily.
When the man heard this, he suddenly became angry, lifted the whip in his hand, and was about to whip it at Xiao Qian, but was stopped by his cousin, and said: "Why should my cousin be like him, throw him fifty small boards, he will definitely sell them!"
Xiao Qian said lightly: "Don't sell it!"
At this time, the man was really angry, but he didn't want to lose face in front of that woman, and he suddenly didn't want to be rude, so he maintained his identity as a civilized person, and said in a deep voice: "Five hundred, it's going to be sold now!"
"If you don't sell it, you won't sell it no matter how much money you pay!" Xiao Qian said suddenly, but he thought in his heart, even if it was even the two of you together, Lao Tzu would not sell it.
"Boy, you're really a dog who sits on the bridge and doesn't know how to lift. Do you know how many things you can buy with 500 small boards? Have you ever seen so much money?" The man was so angry, but he felt that Xiao Qian must be a fool, maybe he had never seen so much money at all.
