Chapter 92: Mother, It's so expensive!
Master Xu really didn't expect that a rural peasant woman would recognize this kind of precious flower and know the scene of its flowering.
This is a "poppy", the great poet Homer called it "Forget Worries Grass", Virgil called it "hypnotic medicine", the poppy is gorgeous and gorgeous, it is a very valuable ornamental plant. There are small and numerous seeds in it, which contain morphine, cocaine and other substances, which are easy to become addictive after excessive consumption, and "opium" and "ice" are made from it.
Fortunately, in this fashion and not many people know the "wonderful use" of the poppy, the understanding of this thing, probably only the old Chinese medicine doctors can say the truth.
Moxibustion boxes are also placed in the pharmacy, and when encountering suitable cases, the doctor on call will also recommend the patient to use it, talking about the current situation of moxibustion and discoloration, which is slowly and quietly changing in the town.
Ah Yuan hugged the baby flowers, and wrapped them loosely around the fur to cover the baby's posture, and then Shi Shiran turned to the market entrance.
There is no figure of his husband, look at the noodle stalls that have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, Ah Yuan smiled bitterly, who said that the ancients did not have a sense of business? As soon as his ramen stall became popular, those who followed the trend jumped up.
Seeing the two brothers in a remote place, they were very discouraged, Ah Yuan called Boss Bai: "Chengguang, the third brother can do it alone, go, go shopping with me!" β
Cover the pot of baby flowers tightly, ask the third child to take care of it carefully, and the husband and wife walked around all the way, and the white boss found out about his daughter-in-law's plan.
"You always ask whose shop is not open, daughter-in-law, do you still want to rent a shop?"
"Why not? Chengguang, we don't have a good place now, are you willing to put down your face and fight with others? Day after day, day after day, there must be a place to stay. Ah Yuan ignored Boss Bai's black face, pulled his sleeve and continued to search.
The town is compared to the village. That can be regarded as an inch of land, renting a shop, a month's rent is two taels of silver, this is the price of a house.
Boss Bai sucked in the cool air vigorously, and sighed, and the sighing Ah Yuan was embarrassed.
His exclamation is very simple, just four words: "Mother!" So expensive! β
Ah Yuan analyzed, he wanted to say: "Mother, my mother, so expensive!" β
But. What if he wanted to omit the other words and leave a mere salutation to express his exclamation?
Even because this is a bit smooth, when I go to the shop casually. For some expensive things, Boss Bai also stared at the bronze bell leopard eyes affectionately as usual: "Mother! So expensive! β
The shopkeeper or the proprietress or the young man who was called "Niang" had different reactions, only Ah Yuan's reaction was to blush more and more, and wanted to be angry more and more.
She is the daughter-in-law of this stupid boy. Isn't it also being taken advantage of? Although this cheap is given to people for nothing!
"Chengguang, you wait for me outside, I'll go say hello myself." Ah Yuan saw a shop with paper for "rent and sale", and forced a smile to tell the man: "Because in this way, you can ask the price first, and then you can decide." And you won't suffer. β
"Hehe, okay, I'll keep you out there." The white boss is still the honest and honest white boss. Obey your daughter-in-law's words.
Ah Yuan, who didn't want to be a child for nothing, walked into the store easily, and the half-open and half-hidden store door had already dispersed most of the pastries and snacks, and a shopkeeper who was busy picking up things. It's the whole picture of the store.
"Shopkeeper, you shopkeeper. Rent or sell? Ah Yuan said hello and reconfirmed the length and width of the store, which is not large, with three doors and a back door.
The shopkeeper is an old man with gray hair, and people in this era are not anti-aging, so he is only in his forties, right? This is the result that Ah Yuan summed up through countless real-life version of guessing errors.
In my previous life, I had dyed my hair, and the ladies who came out of the beauty salon were really indistinguishable from the young, and the men were dressed in suits and leather shoes or casual and handsome, and they only showed their demeanor in their forties, which can never be compared with this era.
"If the little lady wants to rent, she has to pay a year's rent, seventy taels of silver for three shops, and if she can buy it with cash, she will have a shop in the backyard for one hundred and fifty taels of silver." The shopkeeper said skillfully, and then pointed inside: "Just go and see!" β
So expensive! Ah Yuan also wants to call "mother"!
In the backyard, the area is not small, but it is narrow and long, parallel to the store, and there are three huts to live in.
One hundred and fifty taels of silver, it is only suitable to buy it, but it would be a pity to rent it!
The shopkeeper also wants to get rid of it as soon as possible, right? The amount of money you buy is tempting.
Ah Yuan's feeling at the moment is that he is scratching his heart with a hundred claws, and there are not many things left in the three rooms, and he feels comfortable at first glance, the yard is long and narrow, and the area is not small, just enough to put things aside.
It's just that I can't take out this one hundred and fifty taels of silver, and I have one hundred taels on hand, and the tools purchased by the second ironsmith workshop are all things that eat money!
"Uncle-", Ah Yuan changed his name, and his tone couldn't help but be a lot more eager: "I really want to buy it, but I can't get enough money for a while, can you make some more money?" β
The shopkeeper was serious at this moment, stopped picking up the things in his hand, and stood up straight: "Little lady, one hundred and fifty taels of silver is already a difficult price to find, which one of the shops on the street is not two taels of silver to rent a room a month?" If you really want to buy it, then hurry up and raise money, at most, I will pay the money to sign the contract at the yamen, and you will only take the whole amount of silver to exchange for the house. β
As soon as "uncle" changed this benefit, Ah Yuan was also happy, and he went out and left after pulling the white boss.
She made up her mind, this shop must be bought, and Boss Bai agrees or not, she has to buy it!
Women, you have to be cruel to yourself!
"Chengguang, I've seen the shop, it's very good, it's very suitable, one hundred and fifty taels of silver, I want to buy it!" If you don't agree to buy it with your family's money, thenβthen I'll sell myself, and I'll have to buy it!" I must buy it! "Ah Yuan's feet are windy, grabbing Boss Bai's arm and gritting his teeth, and coquettishly selling him, in short, one purpose, to send one hundred and fifty taels of silver to others!
This thing is too big, the impact on Boss Bai is a little fierce, and when he buys a shop, he will not only turn around and become a poor bare, but also bear a part of the loan, which is so embarrassing for the poor who have just eaten enough!
Ah Yuan was anxious to go home, and remembered that he hadn't visited Li Wei yet, so he went to Lu Mansion again.
Mrs. Lu was absent and went back to her parents' house to visit relatives.
However, when he saw Steward Lu, Ah Yuanbai asked him to prepare the money for the goods out of Gashi in advance, and told him that he wanted to buy a shop in the town.
"Then please ask my younger brothers and sisters to go home and prepare the money, come and get it from me as much as possible, and let's just transfer it from the account slowly!" Steward Lu is as affectionate as a family, and he is also very familiar with Boss Bai.
Ah Yuan's hanging heart was put back in his stomach, how good this thigh holds, when it is critical, he can always go up!
"When does Madame have to come back?" Is Master Li seriously ill again? β
"I haven't heard about Master Li's recent situation, Madame will be able to return in three or four days, after all, this is Madame's home." Steward Lu's answer was simple, her daughter is married, even if she goes back to see her parents, she can't live for a few days, not to mention that there are many brothers and sisters in her mother's family, and they are chaotic, and Mrs. has a temperament, it's strange that she can stand it!
Back at the noodle stall, Bai Laosan barely sold a dough with a bitter face, and the meat sauce was removed a lot.
"Three bosses, come to the bowl and taste it!" Ah Yuan shouted jokingly, I've been walking for so long, I'm really hungry!
There were no guests, so the three of them cooked for themselves, ate all the meat sauce, and then closed the stall and went home.
"Don't keep a straight face, third, laugh, Ming'er, we have a big surprise!" Ah Yuan decided to adopt various policies and strategies, and first lobbied Bai Laosan to the team to buy the shop.
This kid is very similar to Boss Bai, he is not the master of the drill camp, as long as he is solved, the remaining three Ah Yuan will be sure.
Sure enough, the third child immediately focused on his eldest brother and secretly guessed Bai Chengguang's opinion.
With a daughter-in-law suppressing on the side, how dare Boss Bai directly put forward his opinion? can only beat the side drum: "That-the third child, what do you think, why don't you tell your sister-in-law, this is a big event for our family, we have to have a meeting or something, right?" β
Bai Laosan surveyed his sister-in-law's appearance again, Ah Yuan rolled his eyes and sighed: "I want to buy that shop, not only because the price is right and the ground is good, but the main thing is that I still want to settle down in the town, the gentleman in the village is narrow after all, I am afraid that it will be limited to Ah Wen in the future, he can read well, and if he is older, he can choose the academy in the town to study, the third child, you have read, is this the truth?" β
The family used to be the only one who read, and it was completely messy in the wind.
Isn't the prospect depicted by my sister-in-law exactly what I hoped for? Get out of the confusion, settle down in a new place, and study in a high-level academy, your ideals cannot be realized, and you can't let Ah Wen have regrets!
Ah Yuan proudly raised his eyebrows at Boss Bai, knowing that this reason could quickly convince Boss Bai, at least, he would remain neutral.
In fact, buying a family property is a good thing, who wouldn't be happy? Boss Bai also wants to wave his hand and buy a few more farmhouses, isn't it inconvenient to have at hand? Wouldn't it be okay to save more money and buy it when it is more relaxed?
Steamed buns can eat one less today, but you can't wait to buy a house, and when you save enough money, the house of one hundred and fifty taels has already become more than two hundred taels, do you regret it?
The husband and wife secretly competed, and the ox cart slowly drove back to the confusion.
The nth family meeting is about to be held, and this decision will make Ah Yuan get his wish tomorrow by deciding whether to temporarily tighten his belt or continue to eat steamed buns and drink broth loosely.
