117 Buy wild boar
It was another night without a dream, and the next day, when Chu Xiaoxi woke up, there was no king by his side.
Chu Xiaoxi got up and found that there was a note on the table, the font was vigorous and powerful, don't think about it, it was left by the king of power.
Chu Xiaoxi picked it up and looked at it, "There is warm porridge on the stove, remember to drink it!" Where you want to go, what you want to do, just ask Ah Zhi to accompany you!"
Fortunately, it's all in the vernacular, Chu Xiaoxi can understand it at a glance, and he feels very heartwarming.
Chu Xiaoxi asked the soldiers outside to send warm water, washed up briefly, drank the porridge, and called Ah Zhi over.
"Ah Zhi, let's go to the wounded camp today, shall we?"
Ah Zhi asked: "Princess, the iron cage should be finished today, why don't we go and get the cage back today and catch the weasel first?" The wounded soldiers will be kept in the wounded barracks these days, but the weasels, if they are bigger, the smaller ones are really worried that they will run away!"
Chu Xiaoxi felt that what Ah Zhi said was reasonable, "Well, it's true, there have been a lot of things these days, if you don't say it, I almost forgot about the iron cage, let's go get the cage now, and go to the wounded camp when it's done!"
Ah Zhi happily replied: "Yes!"
King Quan told Ah Zhi before leaving, where the princess wants to go and what she wants to do, it's up to her, he can only be responsible for the princess's safety.
Ah Zhi didn't know what Chu Xiaoxi was going to do in the wounded barracks, but he knew about the bamboo ferret, and he would raise bamboo ferrets on a large scale in the future.
What is the most lacking thing in the northwest right now? Isn't it food and silver?
If the problem of silver can be solved, then the grain will be solved. Therefore, Ah Zhi felt that the relationship between the bamboo ferret was important, and it was necessary for him to remind the princess, lest she forget about it.
Chu Xiaoxi and Ah Zhi went to the market in Yuncheng, took a few custom-made iron cages from a blacksmith shop, and passed by the place where they bought vegetables.
These days, Chu Xiaoxi either drinks porridge or vegetables every day, and her mouth is light, but she knows that all the soldiers in Yuncheng eat like this, maybe she hasn't eaten well, so Chu Xiaoxi has never complained about the food.
In the eyes of the king, this is both gratifying and distressing.
I am glad that I feel that Chu Xiaoxi is sensible, and I feel distressed that Chu Xiaoxi can adapt to such difficult conditions so quickly, does that mean that when she was in Zuo Xiang's mansion, she lived such a hard life?
There is no good food, Chu Xiaoxi can not be picky, but if he can improve his life, Chu Xiaoxi will definitely not give up.
So she walked towards the Orion.
Ah Zhi watched Chu Xiaoxi suddenly stop, walked in one direction, glanced over there, and immediately understood what Chu Xiaoxi meant!
The hunter was a young man in his early twenties, probably because he had been in the wild all year round, and his skin was dark-skinned, and he wore a wrinkled, torn-brimmed straw hat, and waited quietly beside his boar with his head bowed.
Yuncheng is on the border of the northwest, there are often wars, although Yuncheng has not been broken by foreigners, but when the war comes, the kind of people who may be broken at any time are panicked, and it is still difficult to endure.
Therefore, the people who have the conditions to move have already moved to Los Angeles, and most of the remaining people in Yuncheng are unconditioned to move, and if they leave Yuncheng to go to Los Angeles, the houses and fields must be repurchased, and they can move if they want to, so most of the remaining people in Yuncheng are poor families, and they can only live by guarding the real estate and land of their ancestors.
When you come to this market, it is just a trade of cabbage for turnips, and few people buy things with money!
The appearance of this wild boar in the bazaar is unavoidable, who has the money to buy a wild boar, or who has enough to trade it for a wild boar?
Therefore, there were some lively people gathered, but no one opened their mouths to inquire!
Chu Xiaoxi walked into the sparse crowd of onlookers, and saw that the wild boar had been cut open from the stomach, obviously having been simply cleaned up, so he asked, "How do you sell this wild boar?"
The onlookers and the man who sold the wild boar hunter were surprised.
Orion looked up at Chu Xiaoxi and said, "Don't sell it in parts, only sell it in its entirety!"
Before Chu Xiaoxi could answer, an old man who was watching said: "Young man, you are such a big wild boar, to say the least, there are more than 100 catties, if you don't sell it in parts, who can afford it? If you are willing to sell it in parts, we can each cut one or two catties, and before dark, you can sell it out!"
A woman carrying a basket next to her hurriedly helped, saying, "That's it, that's it, it's such a big wild boar, you want to sell it whole, you should go to Los Angeles, who can afford it in Yuncheng!"
Orion thought that Chu Xiaoxi also wanted to buy it for nothing, so he lowered his head and stopped talking!
After listening to everyone's words, Chu Xiaoxi asked, "Sell the whole head, how much silver do you want?"
As soon as these words came out, the onlookers looked at Chu Xiaoxi in surprise, when did any rich people come to Yuncheng?
At this time, the Orion didn't seem to be so surprised, and replied without raising his head: "Ten taels of silver!"
The onlookers all gasped, ten taels of silver, enough to buy a decent house in Yuncheng!
Chu Xiaoxi didn't have any idea about the price of goods in Yuncheng, and seeing that the hunter looked very kind, he felt that he shouldn't steal customers.
Besides, fighting such a big wild boar is really a matter of life, Chu Xiaoxi felt that ten taels of silver was indeed not expensive, and she still remembered that Zuo Chenyi invited her to eat in Yipinju, which was enough for her to buy a group of wild boars at this price.
So Chu Xiaoxi happily agreed, "Yes, but I didn't bring the carriage here today, can you help me send it home?"
The Orion didn't think about it, so he agreed, "Yes!"
Then Chu Xiaoxi and the hunter left the bazaar amid a discussion among the onlookers.
Ah Zhi was a little worried, and when the hunter was not paying attention, he asked quietly: "Princess, is it appropriate to take a stranger to the camp?"
As soon as Ah Zhi said this, Chu Xiaoxi thought that the camp is still holding the seventeenth prince of Tengguo, Waneiyixian, in case this Orion is a gap between Tengguo, mixed into the camp, and figured out the topography of the camp, wouldn't Tengguo be able to easily rescue Waneiyixian?
Thinking of this, Chu Xiaoxi blamed herself a little, she was used to living in peacetime, and she didn't think it through, so she asked with self-reproach: "yes! What should I do?"
Ah Zhi pointed to the small hill in front of him where the weasel was hidden, and said, "Just let him send it there, let's send the weasel back, and then send someone to give him the money and carry the owner to the camp!"
Chu Xiaoxi felt that it was feasible, so he nodded and walked towards the small hill with Ah Zhi!
The Orion saw Chu Xiaoxi and Ah Zhi walking towards the small hills in the wilderness, and without asking too much, he followed them honestly.
When they reached the place where there were weasels, the two stopped and signaled that they had arrived.
Orion placed the boar on a large stone slab beside him and asked, "Is this the place?" (to be continued.) )
