Chapter 47: Wild Meat
"Second brother, when will Young Master Fu come back? I sought him for something. Yun Xiang was worried about Shiro's exam, they didn't know Xiucai, and they hadn't gone to school again, so it was difficult to find someone to protect them. So Yun Xiang thought of Fu Jinyu.
"If the girl has something to say, our young master has already ordered it, as long as the girl speaks, I will do my best." The white shopkeeper lifted the curtain and walked out, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Yun Xiang had a good impression of the white shopkeeper, so she saluted with a smile, "Then thank the white shopkeeper." Actually, it's not a side, my brother plans to take the children's exam in February, but our family can't find a talent to protect, so we came to find a way. ”
"Hey, it's not that hard!" The white shopkeeper smiled easily, "I don't know many talents, but there are a lot of talented women." Don't worry, tell me your brother's name carefully, and I'll do it for you." ”
"Then thank you for the white shopkeeper." Yun Xiang took out the guarantee book that had been prepared earlier, "The guarantee book is ready, as long as it has Xiucai's signature." ”
The white shopkeeper accepted it and put it away carefully, "This children's exam needs to be registered in advance, it is generally the beginning of February, and today is the fourteenth day of the first month, so you don't have to worry." I'll do it for you in the next few days, and the next time you go to the county, come directly to me to get it. ”
After solving the most important things, Yunxiang went shopping. Generally speaking, the people who take the exam are guaranteed by the gentlemen in the school, and Gorou has never attended the school, so this will not work. Moreover, Yun Xiang has not forgotten that there are only two schools in this county. One is a more civilian school, with a relatively low fee, and Cao's father, Cao Xiucai, teaches there. The other school has a high fee, and most of the students in it are children of rich families, and there are no people they know.
Yun Xiang walked to the widest street in the county, this street can be parallel to five carriages, left and right are mostly teahouses and restaurants, the name is Fugui Street.
There was a group of people around not far away, and it looked lively. Yun Xiang leaned over, relying on her small size, she forced herself to get to the front.
It turns out that this restaurant is called Hongyun Restaurant, which is the best place to see the lanterns during the Lantern Festival. Therefore, every year, the seats on the street will be fully booked by large households. This is to put up a notice to tell people that there are no more vacancies, and by the way, to tell the people that they buy game.
Yun Xiang looked at this notice and suddenly smiled, she really has some game to sell! Some time ago, she had to go into Izumo Mountain every day, and in addition to the pheasants and rabbits to take home, only the wild boar dared to see the light. Anything bigger, more ferocious, didn't dare to take it back. Not to mention anything else, there are now three wild wolves in Yunxiang's space, as well as a brown bear that is not small.
Speaking of the bear, Yun Xiang also had palpitations. Bears hibernate, and most people think that hibernation means sleeping all the time, but in fact, bears are just trying to reduce the amount of activity. If there is plenty of food, some bears are active even throughout the winter. The bear that Yunxiang found was hiding in a tree hollow. It heard Yunxiang's footsteps and poked its head out of the hole.
Yun Xiang was also stunned when she saw the bear, the size of the mutated animals in the last days was very large, so she was not surprised to see such a big Xiong Yunxiang. I'm just lamenting my bad luck. This guy bear, with rough skin and thick flesh, is the most difficult to hunt, its strength is strong, and its destructive power is strong, so it is really not suitable for fighting. If there was no gun, Yun Xiang would never dare to do it, so she could only find a chance to escape. So Yun Xiang could only hide in the space, and then took out a gun.
There are indeed a lot of guns and ammunition in the space, but they are purely consumables, and they are used a little less. The gun that Yun Xiang took out was improved by later generations and was specially used to deal with mutant beasts.
Bears lose one-third of their body weight after a winter. But even so, the bear had to weigh five or six hundred pounds.
It's actually a hassle to sell wild things, just saying how to transport these things is enough for Yun Xiang to have a headache. Yun Xiang thought about it and suddenly had a good idea. The two shops they bought in the town haven't been rented out yet, and one of them is just across the street from here.
"Little girl, come to dinner?" Xiao Er saw a girl in a pink cloth skirt walk in, and hurriedly came over to greet her.
Yun Xiang shook her head, "I heard that you want to collect some game here, but I don't know how much it costs?" ”
"Do you have game to sell?" Xiao Er was very happy, "Wait a minute, I'll call the shopkeeper." ”
"Who's going to sell game?" A middle-aged man walked in with a big belly, "Little girl, do you have game to sell?" Pheasant or hare? ”
"Neither." Yun Xiang saw that the shopkeeper had a simple and honest appearance, but his eyes revealed a bit of shrewdness, so he said, "I have a big guy in my family, but I have to see what the price you give first." ”
The shopkeeper's eyes suddenly lit up, "What big thing?" Could it be a wild boar? The price is negotiable, I am worried about tomorrow's wine banquet, if there is good game, I will not lower the price. ”
Yun Xiang stretched out her finger, "A brown bear is about five or six hundred catties, and three wild wolves are also about two or three hundred catties." ”
"Bear! Wolf! The shopkeeper grinned unconsciously, "Good, good! How about I give you a hundred taels of silver? ”
Yun Xiang said secretly, are you really playing me as a child? "It's more than a hundred taels of bearskin, right? Since the shopkeeper is not sincere, then forget it. ”
"Where's the bearskin?" A voice interjected into the conversation between the two, and Yun Xiang looked over, it was a thirteen or fourteen young man, wearing a jade crown, red lips and white teeth, just like a character who came out of a comic. "Little girl, are you selling bear skins? Why don't you sell it to me? ”
"I'm not selling bear skins, I'm selling whole bears, and if you want them, take them whole." If you want to sell them separately, the price of bear bile, bear paw, and bear skin is not low, but Yunxiang is troublesome.
"Whole bear!" The little boy rubbed his hands excitedly, "You wait, I'll come down immediately." ”
The little boy ran upstairs, but the shopkeeper had a bitter face, how could he be met by this little ancestor. also blamed him, seeing that she was a little girl from the countryside, she thought about lowering the price, but she didn't expect this delay, and she was heard by this little ancestor. It's okay now, he can only hope that the little ancestor won't buy it, and he will speak again.
After a while, the little boy ran down from the stairs, followed slowly by a young man of sixteen or seventeen. Although Yun Xiang prides herself on being well-informed, when she sees this person, she can't help but sigh in her heart, "What a beautiful boy!" ”
"Brother, it's her! She said she had a bear to sell at home! Aren't we worried about what to bring back? This is just right! ”
