Chapter 214: Zhangjiakou's First Experience (2)

After eating, when she walked out of the restaurant, Xiaoying glanced back, touched her already round belly, and then reluctantly left.

Zhiwen looked funny, if he hadn't tried his best to stop it just now, he would have been able to send these three girls away with a basket of buns.

After entering the restaurant, under the recommendation of the guy, I ordered the famous eight bowls here, as the name suggests, there are eight kinds of famous dishes.

They are the five-colored "silk chowder", the fat but not greasy "fried meat", the "steamed pork" next door, the "tiger skin meatballs" wrapped in meat and vegetables, the fat and thin "fried chicken", the tender and chic "chunk chowder", the beautifully seasoned "steamed meatballs", and the plain and fragrant "silver silk belly".

Among the "eight bowls", the first five bowls are heavy flavors, which are rich in seasoning and very satisfying, and the last three bowls belong to clear soup dishes, which are light and refreshing to stimulate the appetite.

Compared with the delicate and elegant dishes in the Pu Xie Guild, these dishes are more in line with Zhiwen's taste, and they are all satisfied.

"Do you have food for the guests? The price of grain we collect here is 10% higher than that of other places. After a few steps, two shopkeeper-looking people came up and asked.

One percent? Zhiwen and Liu Cai glanced at each other, wasn't it still two percent yesterday, and the price was reduced so quickly?

Just wanted to reply to probe the bottom, and there were two gongs in the distance, which was still the loud voice yesterday, or the same set of words, which was 20% higher than the purchase of grain.

Zhiwen looked at the two of them playfully, and the two coughed dryly twice and retreated stupidly.

These two guys saw them face to face, and regarded them as the wronged bosses, Zhiwen They really want to sell food, these two people can make a profit of one percent as soon as they enter and one exit, and they have a good calculation.

But compared with those scammers who cheated and deceived people and made people lose their money, it is much better.

After walking a little further, a few more shopkeepers came up and said, "Do you have any iron?" Our store is purchased at a high price, and you will definitely be satisfied. ”

Zhiwen didn't want to pay attention to these people, shook his head, and walked forward.

Seeing that Zhiwen was not very old, he seemed to be a person who could call the shots, and said in a low voice, "Slow down, do you have a Guangzhou railway?" The price of Guangzhou Railway is high, if there is Suzhou Iron and Steel is better, it will not let you go all the way in vain. ”

When Liu Cai heard the word "Guangtie", he stopped suddenly, held the handle of the knife, and glanced at this person coldly, the gangsterism accumulated on his body made the shopkeeper shiver, and together with several other people, he didn't dare to entangle again.

Walking a little farther, Zhiwen asked curiously, "Brother Liu, what happened just now?" ”

"It's a shame that these people are dead." Liu Cai said hatefully, "They just collected Lu Iron and sold it outside the plug, but I didn't expect that even Guangzhou Iron and Steel and Sugang would be sold out." ”

"Lutie can only make pots and farm tools, but Guangtie and Sugang can directly make blades, and Sugang is even better."

Liu Cai has farmed the land and been a bandit, and he still knows these things.

When Zhiwen heard this, he was also resentful, he didn't expect that these eight grain merchants would not only work to such a level, but also rampantly buy iron tools in broad daylight.

As he spoke, the street began to be congested, and later the front was even more impassable, in order to prevent the three girls from getting lost, Liu Cai put Xiaoying and Niuniu on one side and carried it on his shoulders, while Zhiwen was holding Nannan's hand tightly.

"What are you doing there?" Zhiwen wasn't tall enough to see what was going on in front of him.

Liu Cai also shook his head blankly, although he was taller, there were too many people in front of him, and he could only vaguely see what kind of transaction he was making.

The two girls sitting on Liu Cai's shoulders sat high and saw far away, Xiaoying was more clever, saw some fame, lowered her head and whispered to Liu Cai, Liu Cai snorted coldly, and his face was uncertain.

"The Fan family collects grain in front." Liu Cai told Zhiwen in a low voice that although he didn't have a good impression of these eight families, he had to take care of them in other people's land, and Liu Cai still understood this truth.

"Oh?" Zhiwen doesn't like to join in the fun, he wanted to leave, but when he heard Liu Cai say this, he became interested.

"Follow me, Brother Liu." After Zhiwen finished speaking, he flicked one hand in front of him left and right, and forced a gap to make a gap, and led Nannan into it with one hand.

Seeing this, Liu Cai hurriedly kept up, and ignored the complaints and curses.

"Sorghum, five hundred catties, thirty-five taels of silver, you can collect it." As soon as Zhiwen squeezed into the inner circle, a master sang a promise loudly, handed the silver to a vendor, and the man next to him carried the weighed grain to a carriage.

Ooh! Zhiwen quickly mentally calculated, he hadn't bought grain for a long time, but he didn't expect the price of grain to rise a lot.

"Borrowed, borrowed, borrowed." The merchant took the money, threw it away, narrowed his eyes, pulled the cart, and squeezed out of the crowd.

"Phew!" Someone couldn't see it and spat it fiercely, "This kid's food may come from somewhere." ”

It seems that the first group of people they met just now were quite a few people who specialized in buying and selling.

"Next!" The master shouted loudly.

With a shout, the five carriages were driven in front of the master, and compared with the previous one, the momentum was much higher.

In this way, the harvest proceeded slowly and orderly.

Whenever the wagons were filled with grain, someone would take the reins of the horses and go in the direction of the fort.

After looking at it for a while, Zhiwen couldn't help but be a little puzzled, collecting grain like this, looking at the momentum, but it was only a few hundred catties each time, and he wanted to meet the needs of Jiannu, Zhiwen felt that it was still far away, and he didn't know when it would be completed.

After staying for such a short while, Zhiwen took a few people out of the crowd again, and no longer walked towards the castle, but walked out of the lower fort.

Zhiwen wanted to follow those Fan guys to go to Shangbao to have a look, and stepped on the Fan family's point, but when he came out of Xiabao, he was startled.

The roadside was full of horse-drawn carriages lined up one after another, loaded with goods, stretching continuously, the source was Shangbao, and at the end of the line, there were also horse-drawn carriages constantly joining.

"This carriage can't be lined up from the upper fort." Zhiwen muttered to himself, and several people were stunned by such a large convoy.

"Cut, dirt buns!" A guy next to him heard Zhiwen's words and said disdainfully, "It's only five miles from Shangbao to Xiabao, and our caravan can be discharged at least ten miles, and when it is discharged twenty miles." ”

Zhiwen was despised, but he was not angry but happy, so many things made him run such a trip in vain.

Regardless of other goods, it's just this grain, just by relying on the three melons and two dates just now, can it have such a large scale? Zhiwen immediately had some doubts in his heart.

Seeing that this guy was so arrogant, Liu Cai was already holding back the fire in his belly, and he wanted to return two words, but he was preempted by Zhiwen.

"Yes, yes, people from our small place have seen a little less and smiled."

After that, he dragged Liu Cai and signaled him not to talk too much, and then several people returned to the hall the same way.

With such a large caravan, there is no need to step on anything, and it is okay not to go to the fort.
