Chapter 59, the honest old king
What is reasonable in this world should naturally be done reasonably.
It's like this parking fee.
So, at this time, Xiaoyu was earning the boat fee for them.
There are thousands of ways to make money, but Xiaoyu's method of making money is the simplest.
That's selling coolies!
She was carrying beans to a cargo ship by the docks.
It's just that the way she carries it is a little different.
Others carried two sacks at most at a time, bent over, walked across the springboard, and pressed the springboard to creak up and down.
But she stood on the dock, picked up a sack, shouted "Excuse me, let go", and then tossed it gently, and the sack fell far away on the boat.
Flat and stable, neatly and neatly.
Others hummed bag after bag, went back and forth, and went back and forth, but she didn't even move the nest, and in the blink of an eye, she threw all the beans in front of her into the boat like dumplings.
There are so many goods, and every day there are people who live on the money from the coolies carried by the docks.
Although it is interesting to watch a person finish moving goods as if playing acrobatics, in the thunderous applause of the spectators, how many people will not have enough to eat today.
Xiao Yu didn't think about it so much, she paid the boat stop, collected the remaining more than 100 yuan, and carried Shen Li'an on her back to really set foot on the land of Nansheng Continent.
Someone told her just now that only three miles to the north is the port town.
Although there are villages along the road, there is no medical center, so I usually use home remedies or see barefoot doctors for minor illnesses and pains.
If you really get seriously ill, you have to go to town.
As for the way to the town, it was not difficult to get there, for she was sitting in a donkey cart at this time.
The old king who drove the car was an honest farmer, and his face was full of the ravines of the years, and the simplicity and enthusiasm of the croppers were hidden in the ravines.
The cart is the simplest two-wheeled flatbed with gloves on the donkey.
The old king carried the goods to the dock, and was returning with an empty car at this time, as long as he had time, he planned to pull another car.
"Thank you Uncle Wang for giving us a ride, it's the first time I've come here, look at this winding road, maybe I'm going wrong. β
Xiaoyu is really grateful to him, carrying a person is nothing, and he is not afraid to walk a little, but if he takes the wrong road, it will be troublesome.
The old king knocked on the cigarette in his hand: "It's okay, by the way." I have a granddaughter who is about the same age as you, looking at you, I think of her, at this time, she must be playing rope at home, although our family is not rich, but there are finally parents and elders to take care of. β
The implication is that it is not easy for Xiaoyu to be alone as a child.
After that, Lao Wang asked about Shen Li'an's illness again, and when it came to treatment, it was really a bottomless pit, and some people made their families destitute because of treatment, and in the end the disease was not cured.
The money is gone, the people are gone, and in the end it is empty.
Since it was time to talk about money, Xiao Yu asked how he could have a lot of money in a short period of time.
But seventeen miles to the east, there is Tanglin City, there is a bounty list in the city, and you can get a high bounty if you complete the task. β
It's just that if the bounty is high, the task must not be simple, and there will often be life-threatening dangers, so only people with high ability can take this way of making money.
As for whether his ability is high, Xiao Yu didn't think about it, but silently wrote down what the old king said, and thought to himself, in case this disease requires a lot of money, then he might as well give it a try.
The three-mile road is not far, and the port town has already arrived in the conversation.
As soon as you enter the town, you can clearly feel that there are many people, and there is only one street in the town, and there are various shops on the street.
The medical hall is in an alley in the middle of the street, the old Wang Tou is enthusiastic, saying that he wants to send them to the door of the medical hall, Xiaoyu is not familiar with this place, and since he has already inherited the love of others, then he will no longer be humble about this last journey.
Too humble, sometimes it seems hypocritical, just remember the help given by others in your heart, and pass on this warmth from yourself on the road in the future.
The donkey cart turns into the alley, the white wall and green tiles stretch continuously, the flowers and trees in the wall climb the wall, the flowers fall all over the ground, quiet and elegant.
Xiaoyu has seen the natural island scenery for almost two years, living in a rather heroic and rough seascape home built by himself, and suddenly looking at this chic and beautiful cultural alley, he likes it for no reason, and feels that this Nansheng mainland is a good place.
Since there are outstanding people, there must be famous doctors, and thinking of this, my heart is even more happy.
Unexpectedly, a person appeared in front of the donkey cart, wearing a long shirt and a wisp of beard under his chin, looking like a scholar, but with a long sword at his waist.
Looking at him, the old Wang Tou suddenly jumped off the donkey cart as if he had seen a ghost, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be the second master Cheng, Wang Laohan went the wrong way, so he turned back." β
As he spoke, he turned the donkey's head and prepared to return the way he came.
Xiao Yu was surprised in his heart, could it be that this Cheng Er Ye seems to be sanctimonious, but he is a tyrant in the town?
Will you say "I built this alley, I planted this tree, if you want to live from now on, leave the road money"?
As soon as he said a word, she threw him into a tree, well, that's it, she had to do something good for the beautiful town of the port.
Cheng Erye said: "Hmph, I still want to do these tricks of abduction, you don't know, did you meet an orphan girl in distress again, and wanted to do the unconscionable trafficking?"
"Don't dare, don't dare, the little one just accidentally took the wrong road, I was going to send this girl to the hospital, the second master misunderstood, misunderstood. β
Lao Wang said as he pulled the donkey cart across the alley, glanced at Cheng Erye, who was separated by the donkey cart, and ran away, disappearing as soon as he slipped away.
Seeing that he couldn't catch up, the second master said to Xiaoyu: "Child, how did you get deceived by him here? β
If Xiao Yu wanted to throw Cheng Erye just now, then now he wants to throw the old king's head, look at his honest dealing, how can he be so bad.
It's a pity that he is out of sight.
And I just don't know how to eat a trench and grow wise, I obviously warned myself on Elysium Island, human beings are cunning, fickle, and there are many cruel and ruthless, you must not trust a person casually, why are you deceived today?
Fortunately, there are always good people in the world, so he jumped off the donkey cart and saluted Cheng Erye: "Thank you Cheng Erye for helping." β
Second Master Cheng looked at Shen Li'an lying on the donkey cart and asked, "Is this little brother sick?"
"That's why I came to town to take him to see the doctor. β
Shen Li'an was just weak and weak, looking at Xiao Yu with half-open eyes, Xiao Yu touched his hair comfortingly, and said softly: "Don't worry, Zhenzhen, I will definitely find a good doctor and cure you." β
After speaking, he gently touched his neck, cold, and quickly suppressed the bumpy quilt.
Cheng Erye walked to the donkey cart and pulled up the reins: "The medical hall is on the street, I'll take you there, and you should pay attention when you go out in the future, what mountains, forests, roads, deserted villages and alleys, and places where there are no people are not good places." β
Xiao Yu was grateful to Cheng Er Ye for mentioning it, followed the donkey cart, and slowly walked out of the alley.
