Chapter 123: No Money Again

After practicing archery, it was soon time for lunch, and the smell came from the horse farm kitchen. After a while, I saw a group of maids and women carrying steaming dishes and fish into the stands.

Seeing this, Wen Shu hurriedly put down his bow and arrows, went to the pool on the side to clean his hands, and then returned to the stands to dine with Miss Lu.

Because she was outside, Miss Lu was eating with Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li, while the other two sons were eating and drinking with the other gentlemen in the small pavilion not far from the opposite.

Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li saw that Wen Shu actually sat down to eat with them, and Lu Xingwan on the side didn't even change his expression, looking like he was used to it, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart.

At the same time, he felt that Wen Shu's move was a bit excessive, but he remembered that they had just saved them, and if he mentioned this at this time, it would be a little bad, so he kept silent.

The other people in the stands didn't know the inside story, and they thought that this little lady was a relative of the Li family or a relative of the Lu family, so they didn't feel strange.

And when they had eaten, they sat down again and talked, and after eating some fruit, they returned to the city.

Shilipo is only less than half an hour away from Cangzhou Mansion by carriage, so it is still early when I go back, and there are at least two hours before the sun goes down.

When the carriage drove into the city, Wen Shu asked Lu Xingwan for leave under the pretext of buying medicine for Chu Liulang, saying that she would go down for a shopping and let them go back to the house first, and she would go back by herself after she finished her errands.

After hearing this, Lu Xingwan was surprised: "You really know how to cure Chu Liulang's strange disease." ”

Wen Shu smiled and asked, "Yes, is it possible that the girl is laughing at me?" ”

Lu Xingwan was stunned for a moment, and then said: "That's not it, I just think the little lady knows a lot." ”

Is this suspicious of her? Wen Shu suddenly chuckled in his heart!

Fortunately, Miss Lu then smiled: "It is also said that the little lady is kind-hearted and loves to help others." Only then did the traveling doctor give the potion, and the blind mother-in-law gave the secret recipe, and the good people had good rewards. ”

Wen Shu laughed dryly twice, but he was shouting in his heart, how could there be such a good thing!

Not all good deeds in this world can be rewarded, for example, she saved the prime minister's wife last time, and Prime Minister Qin didn't even thank him in the end.

These things are not given by others in return, but they are all brought out of the iron box by her desperately at the risk of her life, so it is really not expensive for her to collect three times.

That's right! Not expensive at all.

"Then be careful yourself, come back early." Lu Xingwan admonished, then asked the coachman to stop and let Wen Shu go down.

Seeing the frame go away, it wasn't until he turned into the alley and was out of sight that Wen Shu turned around and went to the grocery store.

The main ingredient for curing nightmares is Ran Yiyu, so she doesn't need to buy anything at all, but in order to hide people's eyes, it is better to bring some spices back later.

The reason why she went to the grocery store was mainly to buy an umbrella and a coat.

That's right! After two rainy lessons, she has become deeply aware of the importance of umbrellas and robes.

Originally, she should have bought them together when she bought them last time, but because there were too many things to buy that time, she forgot about them when she bought them.

No, after another baptism of downpour, she finally engraved this matter in her heart. And she always felt that she was sick this time and suddenly became afraid of cold, which was probably related to the rain this time.

Didn't Sister Yinhong keep telling her that girls should not get cold, but last time she was drenched in the pouring rain for a full hour. At that time, the temperature was not high, it was about the same as outside, and it was just like early spring.

After thinking about it all the way, half an hour later, she came to the Wang Ji grocery store from last time.

Remembering the lesson of the fishing net last time, she bought two copies directly this time, whether she bought an umbrella or a coat, and made up two more fishing nets.

It cost nearly 700 wen to buy it like this. Baidu

It's really not easy to make money, and it's easy to spend money!

Wen Shu sighed, carried the things he had just bought out of the grocery store, and then found a corner where no one was there and threw the things into the basket.

With that done, she went to the blacksmith shop again, trying to buy the bow she had set her eye on.

Today, Miss Chu has taught her the basic tricks of archery, and the rest of the things are indeed as she said, and she needs to practice diligently.

Because of the iron box, she is not afraid of no space, the iron box is full of mountains, where there are many trees, and there is no need to even stand a target, just shoot at which tree she likes.

Generally speaking, as long as you don't run into any fierce beasts, it's a great place to practice. When you can do the arrow move at will, you will be trained.

Familiarly with the way into the blacksmith shop, but Wen Shu was stumped when she asked about the price, because the price of the bow was twice as expensive as she expected.

She thought that a bow could be bought for five or six hundred yuan, after all, the bow body was made of wood, so it couldn't be more expensive than iron. Who knows, it will cost two dollars!

What's worse is that the arrows are not included, but have to be bought separately, eighty wen a piece.

If it's just a normal practice, it's enough to buy one, and it's a big deal to run back and forth, and pick it up after shooting. But Wen Shu's training ground is a little dangerous, in case a fierce beast suddenly runs out while practicing. An arrow may not be accurate, let alone killed.

So for the sake of her life, she finally spent five sticks in pain. A total of two silver coins and four hundred letters.

She grinded the shopkeeper for a long time, and then they were willing to give her forty yuan less, saying that this bow was not made by the master in their shop, but someone else made it and sold it here, so she couldn't give her too much.

Wen Shu was helpless, she really needed a bow too much, so although she was distressed, she finally paid two times and three hundred and sixty wen.

It's just that if you calculate it like this, the ten yuan you earned from selling fruits that day, excluding the two and eight hundred wen that you spent last time and the three and sixty wen spent today, there are only a little more than four yuan left!

Why can't this money be spent!

Wen Shu was full of emotion, and the remaining four guan money could not be used no matter what, otherwise her father's waist protection would be in the soup again.

Do you want to stop selling some fruit?

After only thinking about it for a moment, she gave up.

Forget it, seeing that the weather will get warmer in another ten days, there are really not many people who will buy it at this time, and she still wants to keep that burden and go back to Bianliang to sell it.

Anyway, the fruit will not be bad when it is placed in the basket, and it will definitely be easy for her to sell it when the winter is coming in the second half of the year, and there are many more rich people in the capital than in Cangzhou, and they can also sell it at a high price.

If the fruit cannot be sold, then what can be sold?

Ran Yiyu is only effective for nightmares, not everyone can sell it, and other than that, there is only that Meng Huai.

However, Meng Huai's skin can be invulnerable, and she is reluctant to sell such treasures to others.

Or find a pig killer to peel off the skin, and then find a leather worker to make it close to the shoulder, so that there is an extra layer of protection when entering the iron box.

After making up her mind, she asked passers-by where there was a pig killer nearby, and after inquiring about the specific address, she transferred Meng Huai out of a no-man's place near the pig killer's house, and then took a small clay pot to catch the blood flowing from Meng Huai's wound.

This blood can not only attract the Ran Relic Fish last time, but it may also attract other fish, or it has other functions, so it must be collected well.

However, because I lost a lot of fish last time, I only took a small jar of wounds this time and stopped bleeding.

Putting away the clay pot and looking at the bloodstained Meng Huai beast on the ground, Wen Shu hesitated for a while before carrying it on his shoulder with a disgusted face and going to the pig killer's house.
