Chapter 47: Peanuts Are Coming

Lin Zhu informed Aunt Li in advance, and followed the housekeeper of Dr. Zhang's family to the county seat. Lin Zhu took the carriage for the first time, and it felt very novel. The carriage of the Zhang family looks very ordinary on the outside, without gorgeous decoration, but the inside of the carriage is very different, the carriage is very spacious, there is a small table on the fixed body in the middle, two people can sit side by side on both sides of the table, and the places where they sit are added thick cushions, and the edges and corners of the interior are wrapped with cloth finely. Sitting in such a car, Lin Zhu felt that it was much better than an open-top ox cart.

"Uncle Butler, thank you. It's a hassle to take me. Lin Zhu is very grateful to Dr. Zhang's housekeeper, last time he came to tell the drying method of wolfberries, although it was Dr. Zhang's instructions, but I still have to thank him for his careful guidance.

Last time Lin Zhu went to the county seat and didn't visit any place, firstly, the time was tight, and secondly, the money in his hand was not very rich, this time because the carriage was much faster than the ox cart, she wanted to be a housekeeper for a long time, she wanted to visit the county. At least buy some gifts for Aunt Li's family. So she asked Steward Zhang how many things to buy in the county? In fact, Steward Zhang didn't have anything to buy when he came out this time, it was Dr. Zhang who wanted to help Lin Zhu, so he sent him out, but it was inconvenient to say this reason to Lin Zhu, so Steward Zhang vaguely diverted her words.

However, Steward Zhang still told Lin Zhu that there was no need to worry, he could wait for Lin Zhu to buy it. For this, Lin Zhu is very grateful to him.

When he arrived at the county seat, Lin Zhu first went to Fushengtang to sell them wolfberries. The wolfberries that Lin Zhu brought this time, because they were put in the space for a period of time, the grade may be even better than the last time, which can be compared with the naked eye. This time it was the shopkeeper Wang who received Lin Zhu, and he took the wolfberries that Lin Zhu brought and took a look, and found that almost all the wolfberries this time were Grade A, and he was very surprised. He collects medicines all year round, so he can naturally distinguish the quality of medicinal materials, and the gap between the grades of each medicinal material is also related to the quality of the medicinal effect and the price. Shopkeeper Wang still had an impression of the wolfberries that Lin Zhu had brought before, and the grade he had taken at that time was good, he was very satisfied, but he didn't expect that this time it was even more unexpected for him, and they all reached Grade A. Shopkeeper Wang was a little curious that such a young child could take out such a good wolfberry, "Little girl, the wolfberry you brought this time is very good, and it can be rated as Grade A." Shopkeeper Wang said to Lin Zhu gently, "I don't know if you still have anything at home?" "There are still some at home, but they are not as good as the ones I got this time." Lin Zhu was very satisfied with the grade given by Shopkeeper Wang, and a high grade meant that he could get more money today.

"And how many do you have at home?" Although Shopkeeper Wang was a little disappointed with what Lin Zhu said about the family, it was understandable that it would be suspicious if all of them were Grade A. However, there are not many people who sell wolfberries, so if you can collect more, you can collect more. Shopkeeper Wang instructed Lin Zhu that after the family was sunburned, he would definitely bring it to Fushengtang, and he would give her a good price. Lin Zhu readily agreed.

Lin Zhu took thirty pounds of wolfberries, five catties more than last time, because this time the shopkeeper Wang gave Lin Zhu a price of five cents, eighty-five cents per catty, Lin Zhu got more than two and a half pieces of silver, and she almost jumped up with joy.

Lin Zhu asked for two taels of broken silver, and the rest was still copper coins, and after carefully loading them, he left Fusheng Hall. Lin Zhu went to the last Jinji Cloth Village again, and chose a piece of muslin cloth for underwear and a piece of muslin cloth for dresses made in the lake. When I was leaving, I remembered that Kam Kee was a big cloth village, and they should have more leftovers here, so I asked the guy if he could buy some. It happened that I had saved some money in the Jinji Cloth Village, and since Lin Zhu wanted to, I gave it to her by the way, which meant that I received Lin Zhu's five cents. This is much more than what Lin Zhu got in the cloth village in Baihe Town, Lin Zhu was very happy, but it was a little difficult for her to hold such a large bag. asked the guy if he could send it to the carriage, and the guy was reluctant at first, but when Lin Zhu paid two pennies for running errands, he happily agreed. After Lin Zhu told the guy about the place she and Steward Zhang had agreed upon, she left Buzhuang.

Lin Zhu first went to the dim sum shop to buy some snacks, and bought some for Aunt Li's family and Dr. Zhang. Passing by a jewelry store, I wanted to go in and have a look, but when I thought that I was a child, and there were no adults with me, the people inside would probably think that they were here to make trouble, so forget it, and wait for the next time when the money in hand is abundant.

Lin Zhu's grain and oil store, went over to take a look, ready to buy some soybean oil back, although she has already harvested soybeans, but she has to dry for a while, threshing before use. At this time, the oil extraction technology is very backward, so the soybean oil is not cheap, 20 yuan a catty, because the price is high, so few people buy, people are more willing to buy some fat meat back to refine oil. When the guy in the store saw her come to buy, he enthusiastically helped her get two catties of oil, and Lin Zhu didn't have an oil gourd, so he bought it in the store by the way. When Lin Zhu finished buying and was about to leave, the guy in the store introduced another oil, saying that this oil was better than this soybean oil, there was no beany smell, and the fried vegetables were more fragrant. Lin Zhu asked curiously, what kind of oil is it? The guy said it was squeezed from a small fruit with a shell. Lin Zhu asked him if he had any of the small fruits with shells. The man said yes, and showed it to her. Lin Zhu took a look, isn't this a peanut? It seems that it is necessary to go out for a walk, and let her discover a good thing.

Lin Zhu asked the man, what is this? Where did it come from? The man said that the shopkeeper had found it from elsewhere, and the shopkeeper called it Peanuts. They rarely see this thing, it can squeeze oil, but everyone has never seen it, let alone eaten it, so they don't dare to buy it. If you don't meet a child like Lin Zhu, the guy may be able to fool her into buying oil, of course, this can't be said to Lin Zhuming.

No matter what the guy thinks in his heart, Lin Zhu feels that since he has encountered it, he can't let it go, the land behind her house, the yield of soybeans and sorghum is not high, Lin Zhu has seen the soil quality there, and it is suitable for planting peanuts. Peanuts are a good thing, with a wide range of uses, not only to extract oil, but also to eat more. Lin Zhu felt that the shiny silver was flying towards her. So Lin Zhu asked the guy if he could buy something called peanuts.

The guy felt that he had run into a big wrong, and she dared to buy things that others were not optimistic about, and there was no reason to send them to the door The business was good, so the guy sold the most ten catties of peanuts in the store to her, and asked for a high price of fifteen pennies a catty, in fact, his shopkeeper was collected for seven pennies a catty, most of them were squeezed oil, and only the ten catties were kept, but I didn't expect the oil to be sold for a long time, and I smashed it. I always wanted to sell it, but Lin Zhu crashed in. The man hurried to sell her.

Lin Zhu got the peanuts and left happily. I went to the butcher stall to buy some meat and ribs, and then went to the place agreed with Steward Zhang. On the way, I bought some more steamed buns and divided them into two portions, one for myself to eat, and the other for Steward Zhang to keep. Lin Zhu bought a lot of things, and she couldn't put them on her back, so she found a place where no one was and put the peanuts into the space.

When they found Steward Zhang, it was not too early, and the two set off home as soon as they discussed.

Not long after Lin Zhu left the grain and oil store, the shopkeeper of that house returned. When he entered the door, he looked for the peanuts he left, but he couldn't find them, so he called the guy over and asked, only to know that he had sold those peanuts, and the man complacently told the shopkeeper that he sold them for a high price of fifteen yuan a catty. The shopkeeper heard this, so angry that he gave this guy a slap, today he met the owner of a dried fruit shop, said that he had seen and eaten this peanut, heard that he had this, so he wanted to buy them all, fifty wen a catty, the shopkeeper hurried back to get it, but he didn't want to let the guy sell it all. "Go, get me back." The stunned guy hurried out to find it. At this time, Lin Zhu was already on the way home, and even if this guy broke his leg, he couldn't find her.
