Chapter Ninety-One: Twenty-five Dollars One

The fortune boat went all the way south from the canal, entered the Yangtze River after leaving the canal, and then turned west and went upstream, so it only took one day to arrive at the Nanjing Dashawan Wharf. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Xian'er fell asleep in Jia Qing's arms, and when she woke up, although she was a little embarrassed, it narrowed the distance between the two.

Later, Jia Qing communicated with her again, and she also agreed with Jia Qing's statement that revenge was a long-term consideration, and for the sake of Jia Qing saving her life and taking her in, she promised to teach him martial arts.

Jia Qing also promised to give her help in the process of revenge in the future, whether it was financial help or network help.

In exchange, if Xian'er can control the White Lotus Sect in the future, he needs to help him in turn!

This is a gentleman's agreement they have made.

The ship gradually approached the dock.

Large ships like Jia Qing and theirs are equipped with small clippers for reporting.

Lai Sheng ordered someone to go to the old mansion to report the news early in the morning, so when Jia Qing and they got off the boat, someone from the old mansion arranged a sedan chair and waited.

Jia Qing ignored them, but said to Liu Xianglian next to him: "Brother Liu really doesn't go all the way with us?" ā€

Liu Xianglian smiled and said: "I went all the way south with my virtuous brother, and the foolish brother is very happy!" But there is no banquet in the world that will not be dispersed, so let's leave it at that. ā€

After speaking, I didn't know what I thought, I leaned over and said in Jia Qing's ear: "Although I don't know the person in Brother Xian's room, she can be chased and killed by Ye Chengliang, and she is not an idle person, so Brother Xian should also be careful." ā€

Hearing this, Jia Qing was a little moved, this Liu Xianglian is really a person worth befriending!

"Brother Liu, please rest assured, the younger brother knows it."

In this way, Liu Xianglian didn't say much, bowed again, and left with his burden.

After Liu Xianglian left, Jia Qing looked at the people from the old mansion.

"Slave Jin An, I have seen the second master of Qing, and I have seen the manager of Lai."

The first man in his forties and forties, dressed in a housekeeper's uniform, greeted Jia Qing and the others.

Jia Qing nodded and asked casually: "Your surname is Jin, isn't it the father of the mandarin duck sister next to the ancestor?" ā€

The smile on Jin An's face when he heard this was even worse, like a chrysanthemum......

He humbly replied: "The second master is right. The mandarin duck is a child who has been cultivating for several lifetimes, and he can follow the old lady to serve her old man......"

Jia Qing also replied with a smile: "Where, it is also a blessing for our Jia family to have a proper person like Sister Mandarin Duck by the side of the ancestor." ā€

After speaking, Jia Qing wanted to get into the carriage and enter the city, but his eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of many people surrounding the other side of the dock, which seemed to be very lively, stopped, turned to Jin An and asked, "Does Manager Jin know what happened over there, why is it so lively?" ā€

Jin An followed Jia Qing's gaze and said, "That's selling fruit." ā€

Selling fruit? If it weren't for the sincerity of what Jin An said, Jia Qing would have wondered if he was teasing him!

In this era, fruits are very regional, and it is difficult to eat fruits from the south in the north! Backward transportation and preservation methods determine that fruits can generally only be produced locally and sold locally.

Tang Xuanzong ordered someone to send lychees to Yang Guifei from the country of Western Shu, which was just an extreme case.

At this time, he actually heard that someone was selling fruit at the dock, and it was so lively, and he immediately became interested, and said, "Let's go, let's go and have a look." ā€

Jia Qing said and walked towards that side first, and hurriedly followed behind him with Luan, Li Yan and others.

Lai Sheng and Jin Anyuan were not interested in these, but Jia Qing had already passed, and he could only reluctantly follow.

"Wow, that's a lot of mangoes, and they're so big!"

As soon as Jia Qing approached that side, he saw a long box over there, and the top box was open, revealing the mangoes inside.

Pei Feng was the first to sigh when she saw this.

Although the mango is produced in the south, it is still relatively easy to transport, so Jiafu occasionally has a supply, and it is not surprising that Pei Feng recognizes it.

"Hey, what's this?"

Pei Feng suddenly pointed to the cyan sphere piled on the side and asked Jia Qing. In her heart, Jia Qing knows everything.

Fortunately, Jia Qing did not disappoint him, although he was also surprised to see this thing here, he still explained to Peifeng: "This is a coconut, don't look at it ugly, in fact, it is very delicious, I will buy it for you later." ā€

"Drink??"

Before Pei Feng could ask another question, a person dressed as a principal in front of him took the initiative to talk to Jia Qing.

"This young man really has extraordinary knowledge, this thing is called coconut, and it was shipped from Taiwan by our boss.

I don't think the two young ladies around Childe have ever tasted this thing, if Childe doesn't dislike it, I'll make the decision to send two to the two young ladies to taste? ā€

When Jia Qing heard this, he didn't know what his thoughts were, but he hadn't drunk coconut water for a long time, just to satisfy his cravings!

"Thank you very much."

The person in charge also picked out two beautiful coconuts and put them on the table. Holding a knife in his right hand, he cut out an eye with three or two strokes, and then took out a "straw" from a box next to him and inserted it and handed it to Jia Qing.

Jia Qing was attracted by the "straw" he took out, and after looking at it, he saw that it was the stem of an unknown plant, which was cleanly shaven, and it could completely replace the modern straw.

He took the coconut, handed it to Pei Feng, who looked curious, and said, "Drink it!" ā€

Seeing that she still looked ignorant when she took it, Jia Qing simply went over and lowered his head and took a sip, slightly missing this long-lost taste, and then said to Peifeng: "See, just drink it!" ā€

At this moment, Peifeng understood that she understood, but her face was already red to the root of her ears. Holding the coconut like this, Nuo Nuo didn't dare to speak, let alone listen to Jia Qing's words, and went to drink coconut water......

Although the other people who saw this scene secretly sighed in their hearts that Jia Qing was bold, they didn't dare to say anything to ridicule, and even the people on the Jia family's side didn't even dare to show a strange expression on their faces, for fear of being hated by Jia Qing......

Wang Shun, this kid, was afraid that he was not focused enough, so he turned his face to the other side.

Then the master cut the other coconut as well. With Peifeng's experience, she was afraid that Jia Qing would also teach her how to drink herself, so she hurriedly lowered her head and drank it after getting it.

After only two sips, she raised her head and told everyone with the look on her face: It's delicious!

In this way, others are okay, and the throbbing in Wang Shun's heart can't be concealed at all. Fortunately, he still knew some rules and didn't dare to speak.

Now there are about twenty or thirty people standing here with Jia Qing, and basically none of them have drunk coconuts, so they are somewhat moved at this time.

Seeing this, Jia Qing no longer hesitated, and asked, "How much is this coconut?" ā€

The person in charge was waiting for this sentence, and when he heard this, he replied respectfully: "If you return to your master, twenty-five yuan a ......"

"What? Twenty-five dollars a piece, what do you sell when you are here? ā€

Hearing such an outrageous offer, Jia Qing didn't open his mouth yet, but Jin An took the lead in asking.

Others don't talk because they haven't bought this thing and don't know the market, but Jin An happens to have seen it.

"Second Master Qing, don't fall for his evil, the slave has been to Guangzhou once, and he has seen this coconut over there...... I remember this thing over there, but it's only seven or eight cents a piece! He asked for such a price, and it was clear that he was fooling. ā€

Jia Qing didn't speak, he wasn't a boy who didn't know anything, twenty-five yuan to buy a fruit, it was indeed a bit too much. Although he is not short of this money, no one wants to be fooled for a fool, right?

He wanted to see what the main thing was to say.
