Chapter 80: Qian Biao
The quiet of the morning was broken by the loud crowing of roosters, and the warm sun shone onto the earth. It makes the morning in the countryside feel extra calm and peaceful.
Xu Tian got up early and walked around the countryside, the moist air with the fragrance of plants and trees penetrating his nostrils. People can't help but take a deep breath and look at the large green farmland, and can't help but feel relaxed!
When I returned to the inn, except for the guys in the store, they were busy. The others haven't gotten up yet. Xu Tian sat on a stone in front of the inn and watched the village entrance come and go. The villagers carrying farm tools smiled and fell into deep thought.
The time of coming to this era is not short, and it is rare to have such a quiet opportunity.
After all kinds of experiences in this short period of time, Xu Tian's biggest feeling is how precious the mediocre life he once hated.
Once upon a time, he also sighed with a history book in his hand. If you are in such and such an era, you will definitely show your skills and show your ambitions!
But now, I realize how ignorant and ridiculous that kind of thinking is.
"What do you think? Are you thinking about that coquettish proprietress again? ”
The teasing voice broke Xu Tian's contemplation, and he couldn't help but rub his eyebrows. This aunt is really everywhere!
Seeing that Xu Tian did not reply, Yao Qing sat beside him. Tilting his head to stare at him.
"I said Miss Yao Qing, you are also a daughter. Why are you willing to follow us around? And isn't your dad worried about your safety? ”
Xu Tian still looked into the distance and said slowly.
Seeing that Xu Tian was still a little cramped, Yao Qing couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle. With a roll of his eyes, he spoke.
"What are you afraid of, aren't you? Besides, my dad he..."
Speaking of this, Yao Qing instinctively paused. With a dry cough, he pulled the hair from his ear.
"I mean, my dad is at ease with you, I'm with you, he's very relieved! Hey...
Besides, I haven't seen the beauty of the countryside yet. Look at the scenery and countryside around here, how intoxicating!! ”
Xu Tian turned his head and glanced at her meaningfully and smiled. Then he stood up and walked towards the inn.
"Then you get drunk first!!"
Through Xu Tian's back, he saw Widow Yang who was already sitting at the counter at some point. Yao Qing snorted lightly, turned her head away from looking at you and him, and muttered in her mouth.
"These stinky men are all the same, they like this kind of woman!!"
Walking into the inn, I looked at Widow Yang who was pretending to be gloomy and wiping the counter. Xu Tian coughed lightly, calmed down, and walked towards the counter.
Out of the corner of her eye, she watched Xu Tian come over, and Widow Yang wiped her hand at the counter. He tossed the rag aside, snorted, and turned his head.
"Morning hostess!"
After holding it for a long time, Xu Tian held back this sentence that could not be in the ordinary.
"Yo, how did the gentleman get here? Can I help you? You'd better hurry up and talk about something, or someone will come to me for trouble! ”
Widow Yang said coldly, and lost no time in glancing outside the store.
I touched my nose a little embarrassedly, and the thoughts in my mind were full of thoughts. Xu Tian bared his white teeth and made an expression that he didn't know if he would be likable or flattering. He spoke softly.
"Can't I come to you if it's okay? I said, lady, you don't rely on your incomparable beauty. Let's just reject people thousands of miles away, and let's talk about it. Do you know why the girl with us doesn't like you? That's because she's jealous of you, as for why she's jealous. I think you know that, don't you? ”
After forcibly saying this thing that he wanted to do it, Xu Tian obviously saw Widow Yang's unbearable smile, and his face gradually recovered as when he first saw him.
"You stinky men, you will say good things. The sweeter this man's mouth is, the more it means that he is not at ease. Say, find me something! ”
Without a trace, he touched the sweat oozing from his forehead and looked left and right. Xu Tian said in a low voice.
"It's nothing, but I want to ask where you get all the salt you eat?"
"Of course I bought it. Why, Mr. won't think we're a black shop! ”
Looking at Xu Tian's posture, he thought he would ask something. The result was such a boring question, and Widow Yang even thought that Xu Tian was looking for something to say. I guess I want to...
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. also secretly glanced at Xu Tian from time to time.
What Widow Yang was thinking, Xu Tian naturally wouldn't know.
"No, no, no, I mean. Where does the salt come from? ”
"What? The gentleman wants to buy salt. You have to go into the city to buy salt! ”
"I didn't want to buy it, I just asked. If you don't want to say it, forget it. Then I'm leaving! ”
Looking at Xu Tian, who seemed to be really about to turn away, Widow Yang hurriedly stopped him. She still has a good impression of the mediocre-looking man in front of her.
"Don't go, I didn't say I wouldn't tell you. Come back, come back! ”
chuckled and stretched out his hand to pull Xu Tian, and lost no time in throwing a tender look.
"It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's that it's useless to tell you. The salt we need every day is provided by a special person. Only sell the people in the village, and no outsiders will sell it! ”
Xu Tian raised his eyebrows, it was the first time he had heard of such a thing.
Seeing him like this, Widow Yang covered her mouth and smiled.
"I know you won't believe it, tell you. There is a grain number at the east end of the village, and the Qian Biao in it is responsible for the daily needs of our village. If you need it, I can get it for you in my name! ”
"So how do we sell this? How much is a bucket? ”
Xu Tian felt that something was wrong, and he forgot about the situation at the moment. He leaned forward and whispered.
"Let's do this, we don't take money. Grain is collected and converted at market prices. The price is about the same as in the city, and it doesn't matter if there is no food and liquid. As long as there is something in the ground, you can go to him and dispose of it as he pleases. How wonderful! ”
As the two talked, the distance between them grew closer. It's almost like they're going to be next to each other.
Yu Fei yawned and walked out of the room, he was touching his rumbling belly. Thinking about how to let Xu Tian get a few "buns" here to taste, he suddenly found that he had eaten that thing. I used to think that the delicious flatbread seemed to taste different.
Thinking about it, he thought it was a good reason. On the grounds that he let himself lose the delicious flatbread, let him pay himself several large baskets of "buns".
Licking his lips, Yu Fei walked outside. After walking a few steps, an expression on his face that was more excited than seeing a few baskets of "buns" appeared on his face again. Looking in the direction of the counter, he wiped the unknown liquid from his mouth.
"Hey, hey, good boy. There's meat to eat everywhere, okay! Worthy of my brother. ”
Suddenly, his eyes flashed. A cyan figure appeared in front of the inn, and Yu Fei slapped his thigh.
"It's over, I'm going to turn over the bowl and fall!"
He immediately quickened his pace and spoke loudly.
"I said brother, why are you so abrasive when I asked you to help me get the pot of wine? Isn't there any!! ”
Yu Fei's deep voice sounded suddenly, jumping the two people on the counter. But at the same time, they also found the figure at the door. Xu Tian reacted extremely quickly and immediately responded loudly.
"Yes, yes, yes... How could it be without! Here it is! ”
After Widow Yang was at a loss for what to do, she instinctively turned around and took a pot of wine. Xu Tian quickly took it, and walked towards Yu Fei with some embarrassment.
Yao Qing snorted lightly and didn't look at a few people. He went straight back to his room, only the sound of the door slamming echoed in the lobby for a long time.
Looking at Xu Tian, who came over with wine, Yu Fei couldn't help but smile. Walking to the room together, the voice of banter came into Xu Tian's ears.
"Big brother is interesting enough, for brother, you have to stand up at this time. Right!! The eldest brother doesn't ask for anything, and he doesn't want to reciprocate. Between brothers, that's heart-to-heart fellowship. ”
Seeing that Xu Tian didn't care about himself at all, Yu Fei scratched his head.
"Twenty buns, no less!!"
…………
In Xiangyang City, the Lu family.
Lu Tianba sat at the table with his eyes closed, his fingers constantly tapping on the table. In front of him, Ding San stood respectfully.
"San'er, have you done everything?"
Hearing the young master speak, Ding San, who had stood for a long time, quickly showed a flattering smile.
"Master, it's all done. All the accounts and materials of the villages and towns around Xiangyang City shall be in accordance with your instructions. It's all collected, and Qian Biao is taking care of it!! ”
Although he didn't know why the young master did this suddenly, these were not what he should ask.
"Hmmm! Good! You go and bring it all back! ”
Lu Tianba still had his eyes closed.
"Yes!!"
