Chapter 8 The Old King Next Door

At the foot of Yutai Mountain outside the west gate of Liangdu, there are several tenant farmers. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This morning, a farmer who was out farming stumbled upon a huge beehive on a tung oil tree on the side of the road.

He threw down his hoe, ran back to the village, called his brothers, took his tools, worked hard for a long time and finally stunned the bee colony, and then wrapped it in linen cloth and went straight to Liangdu, ready to sell it for a big price.

The beehive is full of treasures, not only bee pupae and adults can be used in medicine, honey is the treasure of the treasure, in addition to all diseases, and a hundred medicines, listed as the top grade in medicine.

The lady and lady in the mansion also have a soft spot for love.

The thirst for honey has never stopped, and the purchase price given is very fair.

So, Wang Rui was fortunate to see this kind of honey on the side of the street, which was chaotic and viscous, and the color and flavor were not good.

The quality of Jiufeng's honey and modern honey is very different.

Since there is no ideal way to separate the honey from the hive, the hive can only be cut and then pressed to extract the honey, which contains not only pollen, pupal juice, but also occasionally the corpse of the larvae.

The man at the pharmacy carried a long stool with a wooden basin underneath it, and the sticky honey fell down the edge of the stool, causing a sound of swallowing.

Tian Qin is one of them.

Wang Rui looked around suspiciously, and a group of onlookers were amazed, sighing at the huge size of the honeycomb.

"Honey...... That's it, as for such an exaggeration? ”

He never liked honey because it smelled bad and tasted slimy.

"My lord, a beehive will sell for ten taels of silver." Tian Qin was already familiar with Wang Rui's behavior of liking to ask the price of various items, and subconsciously replied, but his eyes were still in someone else's wooden basin.

"Jiufeng's sugar is really expensive, Tian Qin, how much do you think my toffee can be sold?"

The young man smacked his lips, as if recalling the taste of toffee: "My lord, don't sell toffee!" Let's keep it for ourselves. ”

Wang Rui kicked him and didn't continue to ask, he actually knew in his heart that the price of toffee would undoubtedly be very high.

Although Jiufeng has the custom of making sugar and eating sugar, but the poor can only afford to eat maltose, and although boiling maltose is time-consuming and labor-intensive, the working hours of the poor are not valuable.

And white sugar and honey are not at all affordable for ordinary people.

Opening a shop specializing in white sugar and honey will undoubtedly be very profitable, but Wang Rui is not sure whether white sugar is really in short supply or deliberately raised by unscrupulous businessmen.

If you cut off other people's financial routes, you really have no place to die.

"Let's go, let's go somewhere else." Wang Rui grabbed Tian Qin and dragged him away, and if he didn't leave, he was afraid that this young man would rush over and grab the honey if he didn't pay attention.

At this time, a fair-skinned, smiling little woman hurriedly walked in the distance, carrying a basket in her hand.

This girl is petite, no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, with a double bun on her head, wearing a pale white long skirt and a red short coat on her top.

She pushed through the crowd and saw the little guy who pressed the honey, staring at him with apricot eyes, and took a few steps over, grabbing his ear.

"Damn Yan Er, how many times have I said that if you don't wash your hands, you are not allowed to touch Miss's honey, if you do this again, I will tell Miss."

The guy was dragged to stand up, and shouted with grinning teeth: "Ouch, Sister Xiangqiao, you just raise your noble hand, don't pull it, if you pull your ears again, it will be broken." Then I will never hear your voice clearer and more beautiful than the silver bell. ”

Xiangqiao glanced at him fiercely, let go of his hand, squatted down and carefully put the basket on the ground, and said angrily: "Yan Er, you have been getting more and more flamboyant recently, is your skin loose, do you want me to tighten it for you?" ”

Yan Er muttered quietly, "I can't ask for it." ”

"What did you say?" Although Xiangqiao didn't hear it clearly, she knew that he was not saying good things.

"Miss Xiangqiao, this kid is talking about you lightly." An onlooker uncle stood up with righteous words, holding the belly of the general, learning from Yan Er's appearance just now, and imitated in a strange voice: "Ask, go, no, get." ”

The uncle smiled and was ready to watch Yan Er's good show, but Xiangqiao didn't stage a full martial arts show as angry as he imagined, and the little maid looked at him stunned and motionless.

At first, the uncle thought that he was wearing the wrong clothes again, so he hurriedly looked down and examined it, but he found that the little maid was not looking at him, but at the beggar hiding in the crowd to watch the bustle.

"What's so nice about a beggar?" The uncle wondered.

Xiangqiao's puzzled expression gradually changed, and finally she let out a low cry of surprise.

"Sister Xiangqiao, what's wrong with you?" Yan Er squatted down with concern, stretched out his hand to hold the little girl's fragrant shoulder, secretly happy in his heart, thinking about how good it would be for time to stop at this moment.

Xiangqiao covered her mouth, broke away from Yan Er's elbow, didn't want the basket, and ran after the beggar who was far away.

As a slave and maid, in a big mansion with intrigue in the depths, it is trivial to listen to voices and distinguish people.

She could judge a person's identity by just a vague silhouette of a figure.

Although it is useless, it is enough to deceive Qian'er's adoring eyes.

She remembered that back very well.

It's the guy who fascinated Qian'er!

Yan Er was completely confused, stood up, touched his red ears, and the corners of his mouth curved inexplicably.

Wang Rui took a small notebook and took notes as he walked, he just thought that with his memory, he could write down the shops on the entire street, and he could also find business opportunities from them.

However, he soon became dizzy, forgetting and remembering, remembering and forgetting.

Xiangqiao came from behind, grabbed Wang Rui's arm, and retracted at a loss in his puzzled eyes.

The little maid was originally full of anger at this bastard who snatched Qian'er, but when it came to the end, she lost her temper and became unfavorable to speak.

"That...... That ......"

Wang Rui tilted his head and stared for a long time, and the little girl didn't organize her language well.

"Don't be nervous, little sister, talk slowly about something." Wang Rui smiled kindly, and then realized that he had made a mistake.

At the age of fifteen or sixteen, it is the embarrassing stage of not being able to go up or down, and they are not considered adults, but if you dare to regard them as children, then you are touching a taboo.

Sure enough, the little maid snorted angrily and said, "I'm fifteen years old, not a little sister, this son, please call me Miss Xiangqiao." ”

After she finished speaking, she clasped her hands, put them at her waist, and bowed.

"The little woman is fragrant, and she has seen the child."

Wang Rui blinked blankly, and finally raised his right hand and waved casually: "Hi, hello." ”

The little girl who was waiting for him to return the salute pursed her lips and scolded, "Tu Lao Hat." ”

Tian Qin wisely leaned to the side, anyway, he was extremely happy to see the demon deflated.

Wang Rui pursed his lips indifferently, slowed down his speech, and asked gently, "Miss Xiangqiao, is there anything wrong?" ”

Xiangqiao was still very dissatisfied, and felt that Wang Rui didn't respect her very much, but she still said: "It's not Qian'er's stupid girl, I took a look at you today, I was stunned, and when I brought water to my young lady, I actually knocked over the water cup in a daze, if it wasn't for the fact that Miss has always been kind, otherwise I would have to beat this dead girl a few sticks to get angry." ”

The two looked at each other stupidly for a long time, and Wang Rui asked, "So what?" ”

Xiangqiao rolled her eyes, things were so obvious, if it was her uncle, she would have understood what she meant.

"The doctor often said to the young lady that the bell must be tied to the bell, and the heart disease must be cardiac." Xiangqiao had the courage to grasp Wang Rui, and said fiercely: "You are the heart medicine that cures Qian'er's dementia, hurry up and follow me!" ”
