In fact, for such a trivial matter as opening the door, Lin Yu doesn't have to do it himself now, after all, Lin Shan also lives here now. But Lin Shan was used to being restrained when she was at home, and she was rarely let out of the house, and she didn't adapt to it until this time. Of course, Lin Yu is not good at calling people, so when he heard someone knocking on the door, Lin Yu quickly wiped his hands and went out to open the door.

I saw that the person outside the door was tall, dark-skinned, wearing a sheepskin jacket and a dogskin hat, at first glance, he felt very familiar.

Lin Yu has not been in ancient times for a long time, and he has not seen much, at this time, seeing this person's clothing, it is obviously nearly a month earlier than ordinary people, carefully searching for memory, Fang said: "Brother Li! ”

"Haha, girl, I didn't expect you to recognize me!" It turned out that it was none other than the caravan leader who followed Lin Yu back to Liyun, Li Ping. He ran caravans, exposed to the wind and sun, and naturally dressed thicker than others.

"Of course I do! I was tired at the beginning, and thanks to Brother Li's care, I was able to come back safely, how could I forget? Lin Yu was also very pleasantly surprised when she saw Li Ping at first glance, after all, she had been together for nearly a month, and it can be said that she was one of the people she had the most contact with since she came to ancient times.

"I didn't expect to see you, sister, didn't you say to go back to your hometown in the mountain village? How did you live in the city? ”

Lin Yu got up early in the morning to make pastries, and at this time, the snow outside the courtyard had not been swept away, and it was a little bad for people to stand in the snow without instep at this time, so he said: "That's a long time, Brother Li don't stand in the snow, come into the house and drink hot water!" ”

As soon as Li Ping entered the house, Lin Shan was a little cramped, moved into the kang, and continued to bury her head low, making insoles there.

Lin Yu shook his head, in fact, their northern border gate is not so strict with men and women, Lin Shan is a little self-contained.

Lin Yu made a bowl of oil tea noodles for Li Ping, and said, "Brother Li will drink a bowl of oil tea to warm up first!" ”

Li Ping took it, smelled it, and suddenly felt the fragrance in his nose, and said, "Sister, what are you, it's so fragrant!" ”

"It's my fried oil tea. If Brother Li likes it, I'll decorate it for you in a while, and if you're hungry, just make a bowl of thick stuff. ”

Li Ping blew it, drank a bowl in three or two clicks, and exclaimed: "It's really a good thing!" I've been traveling for so long, and I haven't seen anyone do this. The girl is really ingenious! When we're away from home, it would be great to have such a drink! You also said to send me, and when I leave, come to you to buy ten catties and eight catties, which is better than cooking rice on the road every day for half a day! ”

"It's all done!" Lin Yu was naturally happy to be able to make such a big deal, and then asked, "How did Brother Li find me here?" ”

"I didn't know it was you! You also know that I have been doing business between Yuzhou and the capital, and I only arrived yesterday. I heard that some people in Liyun make shoes, which are warm, lightweight, and low-priced, so I thought about getting some to sell back. After inquiring, I came here, but I didn't expect that it was you who sold shoes! "Li Ping is also pleasantly surprised, with acquaintances, this business is much simpler." By the way, girl, why did you start a business before you said it? ”

"Alas! In fact, Brother Li can also understand a little bit about my situation. I'm old now, and I can't marry any good men, so I just go out to do some business alone, make ends meet, and be able to provide for myself. ”

Lin Yu said that he was going back to his hometown before, but now he comes out alone, just saying that he is supporting himself, and Li Ping can guess a little, it must be at odds with his family. He traveled north and south, and saw some palace maids like Lin Yu who could survive until they left the palace, and few ended well. It was Lin Yu who was self-reliant, which made him a little admired.

"Alas! It's not easy. By the way, I see that you don't have a few pairs of shoes in this house, I don't know if you still do this? ”

"Big brother, how many pairs do you want?"

"Try it for the first time, take three hundred pairs, can you have one?" Li Ping asked.

"Three hundred pairs, it may take a few days, I still have more than thirty pairs here, and the rest are being made in the village. How many days can Brother Li stay in Liyun this time? I thought, the remaining 200 pairs, to say the least, will take 10 days to make. ”

"That's no problem, I can stay here for half a month this time. Because it will snow heavily, the road will not be easy to walk, and I will have to come back in the spring of the next year. ”

"That's no problem, I'll make them a letter of shoes tomorrow, and let them send it over when they catch the market next time!"

As he spoke, the water vapor from the kitchen of the outhouse ran into the house through the door curtain, and Lin Yu hurried out, opened the pot, and took out all the steamed pastries.

"Big sister, do you know how to make pastries?" Li Ping saw that Lin Shan was cramped in the house, and he was not comfortable, so he also followed Lin Yu to the kitchen.

"Yes! When you have nothing to do, you can do it somewhat, and you can subsidize it somewhat. Lin Yu laid out the pastries one by one and prepared to cool. Now someone orders from me, and I make it for them. As he spoke, Lin Yu gave Li Ping a gold silk scroll and said, "You can taste it." ”

Li Ping blew it and said, "Sister, your craftsmanship is really good, everything you do is so delicious!" ”

Hearing Li Ping praise herself, Lin Yu smiled, and she didn't have to say anything "embarrassed", but she suddenly thought of jerky, she has been worried about the sales of jerky, wild boar is not uncommon in Liyun, and it is not uncommon to go to Hushan country, but Li Ping is from Beijing, this thing is very rare. Immediately went to the fire wall in the house, took out a piece of dried meat, and handed it to Li Ping. "Brother Li, try this and see if you can take it back to Beijing and sell it!"

Li Ping took it, looked at the little black jerky, tried to take a bite, and then chewed it in a big gulp, and said, "Big sister, I don't know what to say about you!" If this thing is taken to Jingli, it will definitely sell well! You'll have to leave it to me when I'm gone!" ”

Seeing that Li Ping liked it, Lin Yu was also happy and said, "Big brother, it's good if you can sell it, but the price of this thing is not cheap." ”

"How much?" Li Ping asked.

"I usually sell this for 200 wen a catty, Brother Li buys a lot, and I know you, I have to sell you 180 wen at the lowest to be able to get the cost!"

Li Ping thought for a moment and said: "It's a little more expensive, but it's better to do it in a good way, take a look when I leave, if it's okay, I'll try to take as much as possible!" ”

Li Ping was willing to help digest these jerky, Lin Yu was naturally happy, and the two discussed the price of other things, and Li Ping left a fixed amount of three taels of silver.

When sending Li Ping away, Lin Yu wrapped him a few snacks and some oil tea noodles. If you succeed in taking Li Ping's line this time, then it will be really twice the result with half the effort to start business in the future!

As soon as Li Ping left, Tianxing came. After he finished taking the pastries, Lin Yu beckoned Lin Shan to sweep the snow in the yard together.

When he opened the gate to sweep the snow at the door, he saw that the door had already been swept clean. Lin Yu looked at the marks on the broomsticks, compared the broom marks on the left and right, and found that the snow at the gate of his courtyard was actually swept by Qi Qianli's family.
