Chu Ying waited for the store to be a little less crowded before entering. "Are they all here to exchange bad chestnuts?"

"Some are, some are bought again, some have been broken recently, and those 3 baskets are broken, can you take them back when the time comes, or will I throw them away for you?" Bad chestnuts are poisonous when eaten, and Chu Ying doesn't plan to take them back.

"Then please help me throw it away, it's really bothering you if it's so bad."

"It's okay, it's not bothersome, it's almost sold out, and these two baskets. Do you still have it at home? If you have it, you can sell it early, and the longer you leave it, the more it will spoil. "

"No, there isn't much left at home, I'm going to grind flour, thank you so much for helping me so much, otherwise I wouldn't know how to sell these chestnuts."

"No, I didn't do it for nothing, didn't I take your money. This is the account book of the past few days, and everyone buys more for the New Year, and buys vegetables or grinders, and the business is still good. Chu Ying looked at the detailed records in the account book, and recorded how much was broken and how much was lost.

"Qin Zhong, how much do you have a candle here?" Chu Ying thought that if the candle had a profit, she might be able to make good use of the pine tree behind the house.

"Are you going to buy it? Go for that one, don't need money, it's also 8 wen, and the better one is 10 wen. Chu Ying had a number in his heart, the pine trees behind him are all perennial, and the tree circumference is quite large, and the amount of pine resin cut out should be relatively large, but the number of pine trees is not very large.

"Okay, I'll ask. It's a total of 4 taels, 9 coins, and 50 silver, right? Deduct your 5 coins and 50 pieces of silver. "If you break 3 baskets, you lose 3 baskets, and some of them are extra chestnuts, and it's about the same.

"Yes. But can you handle it? Do you want me to keep it for you first? You still haven't sold it, and you can't get it for so much money. "Chu Ying has seen the ancient copper plate before, I don't know how much this silver coin is close to 5 taels, and it is really inappropriate to take it out too attention-grabbing.

"That's right, then I'll take 9 cents of silver first, and I'll go and buy some cloth to make clothes and sacks." Chu Ying picked up the strings of copper coins that Qin Zhong put on the low table, anyway, these money will be spent in a while, and it will be okay to take it with you.

"I'll give you a bag, you can't get it like this." Chu Ying put all the copper plates in the bag given by Qin Zhong, and it was indeed inconvenient to have no silver coins or silver tickets.

"Thanks, then I'll go first, business is booming." Chu Ying left the grocery store and went straight to the fabric store.

As last time, I asked for two pieces of fine cloth, three pieces of coarse cloth and some thread, and it cost me eight pieces of silver. Chu Ying's back basket can only put down 4 horses, and the other Chu Ying can only hold it in his hand. With the money from selling chestnuts, Chu Ying now feels that she is a little rich woman.

However, the chestnuts at home are still waiting for him to go back to grind, and Chu Ying doesn't want to spend any money, but he doesn't have a handy knife, the stone knife he used before has been used up a few pieces, and there is still 1 left, and this stone is still relatively difficult to find, Chu Ying didn't find it last time he went to the lake.

Chu Ying looked at the knives of different sizes in the blacksmith shop, and picked a convenient one, this knife is a long-term investment, I wanted to buy a better one, but I was not rich enough to that extent, it was better to buy a medium-to-low knife first.

Chu Ying looked at it for a long time, compared all the knives, and picked a knife of medium quality and suitable price. And he took out the one denarii he had brought from home, and added the one penari that had been left over from his expenditure, for a total of two denarii of silver, and put them on the wooden board.

"I don't know, I think you picked a husband, you picked it for so long." Chu Ying looked at the blacksmith master who was still expressionless, although he was joking, he always felt that what he had just said was not said by this big man with a straight face.

"Money has to be spent where it goes." Chu Ying inserted the knife in the cloth, these knives were not equipped with scabbards, and she had to make a scabbard when she went back, this knife was also sharp, and it would be worth the loss when the time came.

Chu Ying did a good deed and arrived at the gate of the city early to wait for Grandpa Li's ox cart, Chu Ying looked at the barbecue in the distance, cocked her nose and sniffed, this dynasty has barbecue, with bamboo skewers and iron skewers, although there are no spices such as pepper pepper cumin, but the meat itself has a strong meat aroma.

"Isn't that person Yuwen Sakura? Pear girl, look. The two young women helped each other and pointed to Chu Ying, who was smelling the smell of meat.

"No, the villager should be so sick that she can't get out of bed, how can she carry so many things out and walk around." Among them, the younger girl pointed to the new jewelry on the Silver Bird Building next to her, and only glanced at the child sitting on the ground and was about to take the beautiful woman next to her to the Silver Bird Building.

"Also, the cherry girl has been weak and sickly since she was a child, and her complexion is also very pale, and she is indeed not as dark as a country child." The beautiful woman didn't look at the little girl next to her so anxiously, and let the servants carrying things follow them.

Chu Ying turned her head to look at the two women in fancy clothes who were followed by servants. Chu Ying has seen this material, at least 1 tael of silver a horse, Chu Ying, who originally felt good about herself, now feels that she can only live a well-off life temporarily, and there is still a long distance from her rich life, and when she can squander it at will without looking at the barbecue, she will be counted as a rich woman.

When Chu Ying returned home, she hurriedly cooked, cut the coarse cloth and made two sacks, washed the sacks and cooled them in the kitchen. Put some of the ground chestnuts into a small water tank.

Then I moved two baskets of chestnuts from the bedroom to the kitchen, and I was fine these days, so I concentrated on grinding chestnuts, and I had two sets of winter clothes, and I was not in a hurry, so I would do it slowly after grinding chestnut powder.

Chu Ying grinded the chestnuts and looked at the candles made yesterday on the shelf. The pine trees in the back have the appearance of half an acre, although they are considered rich, but the thought of cutting the pine trees to get pine resin is a little unbearable.

This is the last road left by the original owner's father for the original owner, Chu Ying doesn't want to just drop it, although a candle is worth 8 to 10 Wen, but Chu Ying doesn't want to destroy those pine trees in large quantities for the sake of these silvers.

Tomorrow, I will cut a tree first, make some candles that can be enough for myself, and put the plan of starting a candle business on hold for the time being. Now that I have the income of chestnuts, I don't have to worry about eating and drinking, but I still have to think about opening up more money, and I can't sit back and eat.

Grinding chestnut flour is a boring and tiring job, Chu Ying continued to grind after dinner, and did not stop until she had almost fallen asleep after nodding her head several times.

It rained for a few days in the next few days, saving me the effort to water the vegetables, and there was no reason to be lazy and not grinding chestnuts to play. Chu Ying wore autumn clothes on her head to protect herself from the rain, and moved the chestnuts back and forth between the two houses. Chu Ying only remembered at this time that she didn't have the same clothes as Brother Wang wore when he went out.
