Chapter 11 Gutong Town

Ye Sangyu immediately settled down and began to think about business matters, and at a glance, all he saw were trees everywhere, "Then let's start with the timber business." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"......" Rui Hongben's heart lifted up again, "Let you do it boldly, but you are too casual."

Ye Sangyu turned around and went down the mountain, and easily shot two pheasants in the mountain, and a hare returned to Hulu Village.

Wang Youcai was very happy to see her coming back, and his sharp eyes saw the taste of wild animals in Ye Sangyu's hands and hurriedly asked Wang Fugui to take it.

When Ye Sangyu saw it, he raised his hand and threw the game to Wang Fugui, "This is hunted in the mountains, add a few dishes at noon, you can also taste it." ”

Wang Fugui stretched out his hand to continue, but his hands were numb from the shock, and he felt that this son had so much strength.

I took it into the kitchen and handed it to my daughter-in-law to embroider. "This is a guest call, clean it up, and add vegetables at noon."

"Hey" Xiu'er took it, took it quickly, and was about to clean it up, when she suddenly exclaimed, "Oh my God." ”

Wang Fugui leaned over, "What?" ”

Xiu'er picked up a pheasant, "You see, although this rabbit is dead, its fur and body are all intact, and there is no blood. ”

Wang Fugui took it and looked at it carefully, but didn't it, "Then how did this rabbit die?" ”

Xiu'er lifted the rabbit's head, "Oh, the neck is broken." ”

Wang Fugui panicked when he saw it, the pheasant was good at hiding, and he acted quickly and drilled when he saw the air, and the best hunter in the village could only catch it by borrowing bows and arrows or traps. It can be seen that the pheasant is dead and strong, and it is obvious that he was caught and choked off his neck while running.

He picked up the pheasant again, and the feathers were intact, except for the broken neck. "This boy looks soft and weak, I didn't expect him to be a kung fu person." Wang Fugui was uneasy, and hurriedly called Wang Youcai.

At this time, Wang Youcai was still chatting with Ye Sangyu, "What's wrong with Fugui?" Seeing his strange face, he asked.

"Dad, Xiu'er can't tell how to cook the vegetables, you go and take a look." Wang Fugui glanced at Ye Sangyu before whispering.

What idea do you want him to take when he cooks a dish, it seems that there is something wrong. "Hmph, that's really useless." Pretending to be angry, he reprimanded.

smiled and said to Ye Sangyu, "Childe is also tired from traveling in the mountains, you should also go back to rest and rest." After a while, the meal will be ready, and let Fugui send it to you. ”

Ye Sangyu nodded, turned around and went back to the house.

Wang Youcai followed his son to the kitchen and was startled when he saw the pheasant and hare, "I didn't expect him to hide it deeply, he didn't get angry when he collected so much money from him this morning, and now he is showing such a hand, there must be something." You don't care about it for now, bring him good wine and food, and in the afternoon I will go to find out his style. ”

"Yes." Wang Fugui and Xiu'er looked at each other and nodded.

As soon as the noon diet was ready, Wang Fugui brought fragrant game, white-flour steamed buns, and a bottle of good wine that Wang Youcai couldn't drink on weekdays to Ye Sangyu's house.

Ye Sangyu looked at the food, looked at Wang Fugui and smiled, and ate without saying anything.

But Wang Fugui was afraid that she would not be able to answer what she asked, in case Ye Sangyu was angry and rectified him, he couldn't stand it. Seeing her start eating, he immediately turned around and went out of the house, as if someone behind him was holding a knife to him.

After eating a good meal at noon, and sleeping well before getting up, as soon as I went out of the house, I saw Wang Youcai sitting and drinking tea in the courtyard, and when I saw her come out, I hurriedly beckoned to sit down. "Childe is up, let's taste tea together, the wild tea made at home is not a good thing, but it is better than freshness."

Ye Sangyu stepped over and sat down, took it and took a sip, only to feel that the entrance was slightly bitter, but the aftertaste was sweet. She didn't know how to taste tea, so she just said, "Not bad." "Just put it down.

Wang Youcai thought she liked to drink, so he hurriedly refilled another glass. "Childe is still satisfied with his trip to the mountains today?"

Listening to him start to talk, Ye Sangyu also simply went straight to the point, "The scenery on the mountain is indeed beautiful, with dense woods and rich resources. Why doesn't anyone come up here to collect timber? ”

"Why not, there are dozens of merchants who come to collect timber from Gutong Town every year, but it's just that you didn't come at the right time, this season has already passed." Wang Youcai hurriedly replied.

"Oh, Gunton Town? So many timber merchants in one small town? Ye Sangyu's eyes lit up and asked casually.

"Of course, there are many mountains in our yearly city, and the mountains are full of trees, and every household in the village does not go up the mountain to cut some to sell. This Gutong Town is just on the edge of the official road, and the merchants who come and go from the south to the north are all buying timber there. Wang Youcai said that he was thirsty and drank a cup of tea.

"Yes, is Gu Tong Zhenyuan far away?" Ye Sangyu asked again.

Wang Youcai's eyes rolled, "It's not far, walk along the path west of the village for eleven or twelve kilometers." Why is the son's family also in the timber business? ”

"Where, I want to pick up a good piece of wood at home." Ye Sangyu said a simple sentence and stopped talking.

Wang Youcai said a lot later, but Ye Sangyu just listened with a smile and didn't say anything, and he didn't dare to talk too much, and the two of them drank a pot of tea and dispersed.

Early in the morning of the second day, Ye Sangyu still gave thirty yuan, Wang Youcai didn't say anything and took it with a smile, and personally sent her out of the door, and was relieved to see her go away.

Ye Sangyu walked along the path to Gutong Town, not because she didn't want to take a ride, but because the ox cart in the village went to the town, and she left in the morning, and she didn't want to ride a donkey, so she could only walk on her legs.

I was afraid of seeing people on the way, and I didn't dare to use light work, so dry and boring to hurry, but fortunately, I leaned against the mountain all the way, and the scenery was very good.

It took about an hour to see the entrance to the town of Gutong. The low loess city walls and half-used wooden gates are frequented by nearby villagers, most of whom are dressed as merchants on tall horses, followed by carts full of timber.

"This old man Wang didn't lie to me, half of the ten people who went in and out of the town were merchants." Ye Sangyu walked towards the town.

As soon as I entered the town, I saw piles of neat stacks of timber stacked in the open space by the city wall, and many merchants were trading. Although Ye Sangyu was dressed well, he didn't look like a businessman, and he came to talk to someone who didn't buy wood. She took the initiative to go to a few timber dealers and ask about the price, and most of the wood here is ordinary pine and oak, the better ones are nanmu, mahogany and camphor wood, and the better ones are wenge and sorrel. If it is better, it belongs to the treasure of the town store, and there are also red sandalwood and huanghuali, but they are rare.

The wood is different, the price is naturally not the same, the price set by each family is based on the quality of the wood, and there is no unified standard, which is difficult to break Ye Sangyu. She decided to wait and see.

At this time, a green donkey cart caught her attention, a girl wearing a green skirt, a slender figure, and a maid dressed as a maid also asked what in front of each stall from time to time, and every time she got an answer, she would return to the donkey cart to tell her, and after speaking, there was a light and beautiful voice behind the curtain, as if to instruct her what to do next.

Ye Sangyu rolled his eyes, and approached the donkey cart as if he was casually, but in fact, he pricked up his ears to listen to the conversation between the two.

"Miss, now that the price of wood has risen, can we still buy it?" The maid asked a few times and replied to the car.

"It doesn't matter, construction is going on everywhere, and it's normal for wood to be more expensive." The lady in the car suddenly said regretfully, "...... It's a pity that Yongcheng has a long way to go, otherwise I would have to make a lot of money on this trip. ”

"Why?" What the maid asked was what Ye Sangyu was also curious about.

The young lady in the car was not afraid of trouble, and told the maid one by one, and also let Ye Sangyu hear the business opportunities.

After the young lady finished speaking, she instructed the maid to choose which woods to choose, and what kind of wood to choose to sell.

In a short time the maid ordered timber from some of them, paid a deposit, and then got into the donkey cart and headed out into town.
