Since they said that they would go to the county seat early tomorrow morning to sell wild boars, everyone would quickly wash up and rest. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Early the next morning, before the sky was very bright, they all got up, as usual, the Lin family cooked breakfast for everyone to eat, and then they cleaned up, Du Yue had nothing to clean up, so he put the back of the hare pheasant that he called yesterday, and the wild boar was still carried by the father and son of the Liu family, Yuan Ping took the handkerchief that he usually embroidered himself in a small basket and brought it, ready to go to the embroidery workshop in the county to sell.

Along the way, a few people walked forward talking and laughing, but the sky outside was still not very bright, and the fog was quite large. The county seat where everyone wants to go is called Liancheng, which is not far from Liujiazhuang, but it also has to walk for more than half an hour. At this time, a few people came relatively early, and when they arrived in Liancheng, the city guards had just opened the city gate, and many people lined up to slowly enter the city, and Du Yue and a few people also lined up behind those people to follow into the city.

"Uncle, where are we going to sell these prey?" As soon as he entered the city, Du Yue began to ask.

"We're going to the West Market, where we sell vegetables, wild animals, and food." Liu Tianming replied.

As soon as I arrived in the West Market, many vegetable sellers began to set up stalls, and the hands and feet were already set up. There are quite a lot of positions, and a few people hurriedly found a better position to prepare for the prey, and found a good position, the father and son of the Liu family put the wild boar on the ground, Du Yue put the back basket on the side of the wild boar, and then put the hares and pheasants out, Yuan Ping couldn't help, so he could only stand behind a few people, and then sell his own handkerchief when they were all sold.

At this time, it was still early, Du Yue asked Uncle Liu, it was probably the middle of the hour, calculated as the modern time, that is, at more than six o'clock in the morning, at this time, there were many people selling things in the countryside, and there were no people on the street except for selling things, it was estimated that they would have to wait a little longer, and the flow of people would increase, and Du Yue and several people were waiting patiently. One of them next door sells honey, and the other sells chickens, and in this West Market, like selling wild things, for the time being, only Du Yue's family is there. They set the price before they set off, 80 wen a pheasant, 200 wen a hare, and 20 wen a pound of wild boar.

At the end of the day, the flow of people gradually increased, and there were many aunts and daughters-in-law, and there was a lot of shouting in the West Market. There is a lively scene around, and occasionally some come to ask how the wild boar is sold, but it is a pity that Liu Tianming did not bring a scale or a knife, so they could only sell the whole one. Pheasants and hares are also asked, but when the price is said, it is too expensive, at this time the chickens are only about sixty yuan, and the pheasants they sell are twenty yuan more expensive than the chickens, after all, they are ordinary families, and the economic conditions of the family are average, and they are not willing to buy these wild things to eat.

At this time, it was almost midday, none of the prey they hunted were sold, Du Yue was a little anxious, if they couldn't sell it, they wouldn't do it in vain, so what would she do with her first pot of gold?

At this time, a middle-aged man dressed in dark blue satin clothes and his hair tied up with a golden crown walked over, followed by a small man dressed up. The middle-aged man walked all the way and looked at it, maybe he didn't find what he wanted, and his brows furrowed slightly. As soon as the middle-aged man saw Du Yue and their stall, he walked over quickly.

"How do you sell hares, pheasants and wild boars?" Finally found some wild things, the middle-aged man squatted down and asked Liu Tianming.

"A pheasant of 80 wen, a hare of 200 wen, and a wild boar of 20 wen a catty." Liu Tianming replied respectfully.

"Well, okay, you take all of this with you and follow us, our Lin Mansion won't lose you." The middle-aged man was the forest manager of the Lin Mansion, and said at this time.

"Okay." As soon as Du Yue heard this, he quickly cleaned up the pheasant and hare in the back basket, Du Yue put the back basket on his back, and the father and son of the Liu family also lifted the wild boar, and several people followed behind the forest steward and followed the forest steward all the way back.

Steward Lin led the servant all the way to the south street, and stopped in front of a house with red walls and green tiles, and the little servant knocked on the vermilion gate, and a little maid wearing blue clothes and a turban of the same color immediately opened the door.

"Steward Lin, you're back!" The little guy who opened the door flattered.

"Hmm." Steward Lin replied casually.

"Come in, all of you, and bring everything in." Steward Lin was humane to Du Yue.

"Okay." Du Yue hurriedly followed.

"Let's leave it all here." After Steward Lin finished speaking to Du Yue, he called a few more servants: "You guys, weigh this wild boar." ā€

A few small servants responded, and immediately moved an oversized scale, and took a very strong frame to load the pig into the scale.

"Steward Lin, this wild boar has two hundred and sixteen catties." A small guy from the weighing pig replied.

"Three hares are six hundred wen, two pheasants are one hundred and sixty wen, and wild boars are four two hundred and three hundred and twenty wen, a total of five taels and eighty wen. Come with me to settle the bill. Steward Lin said to Liu Tianming.

Du Yue and the others obediently waited here for Liu Tianming to check out. This family should look very rich, the little maid and the maid woman I just saw were dressed very neatly, and Du Yue changed into the best clothes when they came out, but they were all old and white.

It didn't take long for Liu Tianming to come out, and several people followed him to the door, and as soon as he got out of the door, Liu Tianming saw that there was no one around, so he took out the money.

"Yue'er, this is two two five hundred and sixty wen, this is what you deserve." Liu Tianming was not greedy, and directly gave half of the pig's money to Du Yue, otherwise there would not be so much.

"Uncle, this is too much, the three of us hit the wild boar, I can't take that much." Du Yue took two taels of silver, and asked Liu Tianming to put away the rest.

"Okay." Liu Tianming saw someone coming over on the road, and it was not easy to say anything else, so he collected the money first, and then looked for him when Du Yue wanted to use it.

"Alright, the prey is sold out, it's time to sell my veil." Yuan Ping said.

Then a few people walked out of the south street and walked all the way to the East Market, where the embroidery workshops were opened.

A few people came to the door of a house called Yunni Embroidery Workshop, Liu Tianming and his son didn't want to go in, so they waited at the door, Du Yue and Yuan Ping walked in, there were a lot of people in the store, a few guys were introducing customers, and a thin and tall guy saw Du Yue and the two of them, and came over immediately.

"What do you two want to buy?" The guy didn't ignore the two of them because they were not dressed well, but greeted them very warmly. It deserves to be a big store.

"Little second brother, I want to sell some handkerchiefs." Yuan Ping said.

"Okay, you come with me to the treasurer." The guy took Du Yue and the others to find the shopkeeper. After talking to the shopkeeper, he went outside to greet the guests again.
