Chapter 55
Unexpectedly, the two of them went in the same direction on the road, and it was difficult for him to hear these words.
His inky black eyes narrowed slightly, in-laws? In fact, he couldn't talk about being annoyed by her words, but these two words ruined his previous good mood, and no girl had ever disliked him like this? As if he was so bad, this Lin Long was really very different from the girls of the Lin family.
On the one hand, I don't like her words very much, and on the other hand, I secretly praise myself for not being the kind of superficial person who has a vision.
But why is this mood so bad? Ye Xuyao tugged at the collar of his somewhat stuffy shirt, and his expression became more and more cold, this Lin Long's words really didn't sound very pleasant.
After a while, he reached out and knocked on the board of the car heavily, and ordered unhappily, "Hurry up, you can't finish it when it's dark." ”
The bandit Jian who was driving outside glanced at each other, it seemed that the master was still angry, this Lin Long girl was really bold, the bandit's hand shook, the horse whip was raised, and the horse's speed accelerated.
The ground that had been pouring heavy rain was soaked everywhere, and the mud paddles were even more splashing, Lin Long was discussing the price of flowers with Lin Nan, when suddenly the carriage was unstable, her body was crooked, she was busy holding on to the simple car wall with both hands, and she was almost about to scream, she finally stabilized her body, and was about to ask the driver how to drive in displeasure?
There was the sound of horses galloping beside her, and a carriage that was not gorgeous, but far stronger and heavier than her rented carriage whizzed by, and the speed was very fast, and the small carriage she was sitting in still shook twice, but fortunately, the coachman reacted quickly, and drove to the side to avoid a little, and the carriage quickly passed by.
"Who?" Lin Long complained, this road is not wide, and it is a wetland after the rain, so it is easy to hurt the innocent by driving a carriage, and there is a bit of resentment in his big eyes.
Lin Nan also pressed his hands tightly on the wall of the carriage to balance his body, frowning and looking at the carriage that was walking away quickly, this carriage looked quite familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it for a while?
The coachman looked apologetic, "Girl, are you alright?" Now these rich kids are so arrogant that they can ......."
Lin Long's face sank, "Isn't it?" Running like this will kill you. Sitting upright, I saw that Lin Nan was still looking ahead, "Uncle Nan, hurry up and get back to your soul, this carriage has gone away, and we won't be angry anymore." ”
Lin Nan turned around and discussed with Lin Long again, and after a while, he turned his head and asked the coachman to speed up a little, otherwise it would be bad if he couldn't return to the city tonight.
The coachman also knew that time was limited, and the carriage was steady and fast, and even Lin Long smiled and praised his good driving skills, which made the coachman laugh, and Lin Long had a vision, and said that Lin Long would look for him when he wanted to go out of the city next time, and it would be cheaper at that time.
Of course, Lin Long is smiling and squinting, and it is good to save a copper plate.
When he arrived at Nachen Village, it was already afternoon, Lin Long had eaten dry food on the road, and drank a lot of tea in the small inn, and his stomach was very full for a while.
There is a high mountain behind Chen Village, there are a lot of flowers and plants on the mountain, no one has ever picked them, Lin Long does not know this place, or Lin Nan is well-informed, so as soon as he heard that he was going to open a spice shop, he immediately thought of Huayuan, he had acquaintances in this Chen Village.
As soon as the people waiting in the village saw Lin Nan, they immediately greeted him.
When Lin Long stepped on the low stool and came down, he saw that Lin Nan's friend was an honest farmer, quite old, and seeing that he was respectful when he talked to Lin Nan, he knew that Lin Nan was kind to this person in his early years.
"This is my master, Miss Lin." Lin Nan hurriedly let go of his body and introduced, "Girl, this is Uncle Chen, and I used to have some relationships with me......
Lin Long nodded and called Uncle Chen.
Uncle Chen was a little flattered and responded, "Miss Lin, you're welcome, let's go into the village to talk, I used to carry millet to the city to sell, and I was also a housekeeper of Duo Lin, otherwise I would have been killed by someone......"
When Lin Long heard this, he looked at Lin Nan curiously, "Uncle Nan, why haven't I heard you mention it?" ”
"Hey, it's not a big deal, it's just that when I was working as a housekeeper at the second master's place, I saw that the rice shop deceived the weigher to lower the price, and I couldn't see it for a while and said a few words, but Uncle Chen still remembered it in his heart......" Lin Nan mentioned embarrassedly.
"Steward Lin is too modest, if you hadn't spoken up at that time, I would have lost more than three taels of silver, and we, the croppers, couldn't afford to lose......" Uncle Chen exclaimed.
When Lin Long heard this, he had to say that Lin Nan was quite upright, such a character was rare, and he was quite relieved that he would be the shopkeeper of his incense shop in the future.
Chen Boti went to his house to drink a bowl of water and talk before going up the mountain, Lin Long was worried about the time to return to the city, so he had to refuse, taking advantage of the fact that there is no rain now, he can just hike to the mountain to see how the quality of the flowers is, which is related to the quality of the incense powder that comes out, and he must not be sloppy.
Uncle Chen didn't talk nonsense, and took the lead to lead Lin Long to the mountain behind the village, the road was a little muddy, Lin Long walked a little hard, but she was not a pampered aristocratic daughter, and she could endure it with a bite of silver teeth, but the embroidered shoes and skirt were a little dirty.
This mountain is not high, sure enough, there are a lot of flowers and plants, the common red and blue flowers, pomegranate flowers, roses, motherwort and so on are here, of course, some more precious, here is not possible. What's more, she also saw some ordinary Chinese herbal medicines, and her heart was even more happy, the pollen she mixed had to be sold at a high price, and a few flavors of Chinese medicine had to be added.
Stretched out his hand and picked a flower bone that had been beaten by the rain and wilted a little in his hand, and he still smelled a faint aroma at the end of his nose, his fingers were light, the juice was slightly thick, and it seemed that the quality was good.
"Miss Lin, do you really want these worthless flowers all over the mountains?" Uncle Chen still asked a little hesitantly, when Lin Nan mentioned it to him, he didn't believe it in every way, the flowers that bloomed here are not rare varieties, who in the city wants them? Only the girls who have not come out of the pavilion in the village will also pick one or two sideburns, in addition, no one is rare.
"That's right, Uncle Chen." Lin Long smiled, "Of course, I don't need much in the beginning, maybe in the future." ”
When Uncle Chen heard this, his face suddenly brought a little joy, if he could have an extra income, it would be quite rare for him, a farmer, "Miss Lin, how much do you want, the old man can send it to the house for you every day." ”
Uncle Chen still misunderstood, the few in Lin Long's mouth are not a matter of a few plants, in addition to the fat powder that needs to be customized according to the skin, the general color of goods needs a lot, small profits but quick turnover, and she still understands this truth, and she also needs this most basic color to open the name.
"Uncle Chen, I need to talk to your village chief and Li Zheng." Lin Long is colorful.
I'm afraid it's not a problem to pick a few flowers in this mountain, but if you want a lot of them, you have to talk to these individuals.
Chen Bo was stunned, he didn't expect Lin Long to ask like this? Immediately frowned and asked again.
Lin Long still nodded.
Uncle Chen no longer doubted at this time, but led Lin Long down the mountain to the village chief's house.
The village chief of Chen Village is an old man with a beard, Lin Long looked at it, the village chief's home environment is good, he should be a rich family in this village, he heard that Lin Long's intention was to come for the flowers and plants in the back mountains of the village, he immediately frowned, and looked at Lin Long with a little contempt, but it was just a milky girl who had not dried up, so he said in an unkind tone: "This girl, you are deliberately here to play tricks on the old man, right?" ”
Lin Long didn't care, and said with a light smile: "No, I came to discuss with the village chief sincerely, I am quite satisfied with the flowers and plants in the back mountain of yours, so I plan to contract it, I will pay ten taels of silver a month, and it will be one hundred and twenty taels of silver a year." She stretched out her finger and said, then took out twenty taels of silver from her cuffs, "To show sincerity, this is a deposit of twenty taels of silver, the village chief should know that I am not joking." ”
