Soon, a plaque hanging on the Yangzhou Goods Expo appeared in front of everyone.

Behind the plaque, there is an even more lively scene.

Li and others are here for the Yangzhou Goods Expo, and now that they are in front of them, there is no reason not to enter.

didn't speak, and tacitly walked along the vacant road.

After coming in, Zhao Yu's mouth never closed again.

Because the things in the expo are really strange, although Zhao Yu has an impression in her memory, but in reality, she really has no impression.

However, thanks to Zhao Shanyu, he brought back a lot of things from the south at the beginning of the year.

Like the pocket watch he brought back, a soft cashmere sweater, soap, laundry detergent, shampoo... All appeared at the fair.

Not surprisingly, Li spent money to buy them all.

And these items have also been used by the Yuan family, especially soap boxes, laundry detergent, shampoo, I don't know how much better than the plant ash they commonly use.

Keeping Zhao Yu's words in mind, Yuan bought a lot of them in one go, and put them all in the back basket and loaded them onto the ox cart.

Following, everyone continued to walk forward, and saw a hand-cranked shelling machine in a crowded stall.

As we all know, there are many kinds of rice in the south, and it is cumbersome to huddle rice, so the general public either borrows the machine in the city or relies on hundreds of pounds of stone grinders to do it themselves.

At present, this hand-cranked shelling machine solves such troubles.

However, this thing is precious, a half-person high shelling machine costs hundreds of taels of silver, and ordinary people can't afford it.

Zhao Fuxiang saw the rice transplanting machine at the booth next to him, which was used to cut rice and save the family's labor.

The rice transplanter is cheaper than the hulling machine, only one hundred taels, but everyone just saw the excitement and did not buy it.

Moving on, Zhao Fuxiang saw some iron knives and farm tools with special shapes.

Compared with the tools and machines on the side, which cost tens of hundreds of taels of silver, these iron knives and farm tools are very cheap.

Zhao Fuxiang watched it for so long, and for the first time he didn't hesitate to buy something, he bought a few proudly.

In addition, there are also beautiful oil-paper umbrellas, pen, ink, paper, inkstones, soft straw paper for toileting, all kinds of meat or canned fruits......

The things released at the fair can be said to be everything, but most of them are too expensive for ordinary farmers to afford.

So everyone walked around, but it was just an addiction, and almost didn't buy much.

Finally, everyone came to the fabric area.

Zhao Yu saw some strange-looking special fruits in one stall, some like the lychees, cherries, and melons she remembered.

Because the fruit was about to go bad, it was placed directly on the ground by the vendors.

Zhao Yu was short, and he only lowered his head to see them.

With the fragrance of fruit wafting from the tip of his nose, Zhao Yu couldn't help but reach out and pull Yuan.

Yuan couldn't help but beg in the face of his daughter's little face, and finally gritted his teeth and bought all the remaining fruits.

However, this is not the end, because Yuan felt that he had suffered a loss, and asked the vendor to give a few fruit trees half-ride-and-half-give.

Yes, that's right, right next to the fruit is a bundle of tightly wrapped fruit trees.

These fruit trees were pulled together with these fruits, and the vendors also said that they were not selling fruits, but silk fabrics.

The fruits and fruit trees were only planted at home, but this year's rain was good, and there were so many fruits at home that the vendors thought that they would waste it at home, so they brought them over to try.

Unexpectedly, because no one had eaten the fruit here, the business was directly cold, and the last one was almost broken, so it had to be sold cheaply.

And the remaining half-dead fruit trees, a few of which were sold half-dozen and half-given away, and the rest are still not cared for.

It was not surprising that the vendors let the fruit trees fend for themselves, and they turned their heads and began to beckon the customers in front of them to look at their silk fabrics.

Not to mention, the silk fabric they sell is bright and delicate, and the fabric is cool and light to wear, especially in the hot season in the south, this silk fabric is more suitable for people to wear as clothes.

Therefore, there are many people who come to buy it.

After Yuan finished buying the fruit, he was attracted by the silk fabric on the side, and discussed it with the past in full swing, looking like he wanted to buy one and take it back to make a shirt for the adults and children in the family to wear.

Anyway, all the silk fabrics are underwear, not exposed, even if her craftsmanship is not good, it is not ashamed.

Zhao Yu, on the other side, was still staring at the fruit trees that were thrown under the stall and did not move.

She didn't notice any difference between these fruit trees, mainly because Zhao Yu thought of her newly built house, and the yards around the homestead were empty, and the bare ones were not very good-looking.

So when she noticed the fruit trees right now, she thought about buying them all and planting them in her yard.

This bundle of fruit trees looks like there are dozens of them, as long as you can survive a few and keep your yard from being bare, that's not bad.

Zhao Yu smiled and said to the stall owner who was sitting idle, "Boss, I want to inquire about what kind of fruit trees you are and how they are sold." ”

The middle-aged vendor glanced at the words and saw that it was a child who opened the question, so he shook his head and continued to turn his head without paying attention.

Zhao Yu......

That's too realistic, isn't it?

Zhao Yu was helpless, but thinking of the few fruit trees that had just been half-given away and half-sold, he felt that he didn't want to miss this cheap fruit tree, so he asked again.

Seeing that Zhao Yu was persistent, the other party didn't want to refute his face too much, so he only said perfunctorily, "Xiaowa, although these trees are their own ordinary peach trees, pear trees, apple trees, longan and other trees,"

"But this price is not cheap, even if the situation is not good at the moment, but this one will cost more than a dozen yuan," there are dozens of fruit trees bundled up at the moment, and they are close to a penny of silver when counted.

"You can't do this, don't make trouble here."

The vendor waved his hand as he spoke, and this time he also turned more than half of his body, and made sure that he would not bother with Zhao Yu again.

When Zhao Yu heard this, she was a little angry, she stared at the vendor in front of her who looked down on her, and said in a hurried tone, "You boss, you don't even do the business that is delivered to the door, of course I can call the shots, just say that your own fruit trees are all at this price?" ”

The middle-aged vendor was speechless, but he didn't expect this little baby to give up and ask.

nodded without thinking about it, which was to verify his words, "Of course, if you really settle down, I will be the master, and I will only accept you fifteen wen for a tree,"

"You know, these fruit trees can bear fruit in the next year,"

"If you are more simply and buy all these dozens of trees, then I will make you cheaper and wipe out the money behind you."

Being able to say this, the vendor wanted to express that he didn't want to entangle with him more, so he thought of what he thought was a good way, which could not only send the other party away, but also make his position clear.

Not to mention the side, just because of the conversation between the two, many people around were listening to the excitement.

The vendor held the idea that there might be someone interested in these fruit trees, so he simply took the opportunity to tell his bottom line, these fruit trees can be sold naturally, and he is not uncomfortable if he can't sell them.

Sure enough, as soon as the vendor's words came out, it directly caused a lot of turmoil around.

Many people who came to see the excitement were very moved, and some even wanted to buy some fruit trees because they were cheap.

But to the slight regret of the vendors, everyone was just excited, and no one really jumped out to say that they wanted to buy it.

As for Zhao Yu on the side, his eyes lit up after getting the letter from the vendor, and he hurriedly ran out and dragged Yuan Shi, who was about to pay for silk fabrics.

Yuan was picking up the silk fabric, and he was about to complete the payment, but as soon as he raised his hand, he felt that the sleeves were a little tight, and when he looked down, it turned out that Zhao Yu was pulling her sleeves.

Looking around, Yuan lowered his head and said in a puzzled tone, "Erya, what's wrong with you?" ”

Zhao Yu's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly to Yuan's family, "Mother, I want to buy fruit trees, you go and pay the bill, it's too late to save and be bought by others." ”

Yuan Shi was taken aback when he heard this, "Fruit trees? ”

"Yes, it's over there," Zhao Yu said and didn't forget to stretch out his hand and point to the crowd, "The boss said that a fifteen wen is not expensive." ”

At least, it's not as expensive as the ones sold by the surrounding fruit farmers.

Yuan took a look, and also understood that the fruit trees that Zhao Yu said were those who had just bought half a dozen fruits and half gave them away, and he was suddenly unwilling.

"No, Erya, aren't you just messing around, just now that person also gave us a few half-dead fruit trees, look at it can't be raised at all, what do you buy it for, and you shouldn't eat or drink, with these money, we might as well buy a few catties of meat to satisfy our hunger,"

"Good, Erya, obedient, those fruit trees can't be bought."

Yuan really looked down on it, after all, she bought fruits, and when she saw a few trees given to her by the other party, she repeatedly felt that she was at a loss.

"Mother, where can it be the same," Zhao Yu was also helpless about Yuan's thoughts, and said that if the fruit trees are planted, they can also be sold for money, "The fruit tastes very sweet, so it's better to plant it at home as a snack," It's better than having nothing in the bare yard at home."

Yuan pursed his lips and muttered, "It's weird!" ”

However, in the end, it was his own daughter, and he did not refuse Zhao Yu.

Of course, the most of this is because most of the family's money is earned back by Zhao Yu.

Right now, Zhao Yu wants to flower, and Yuan, as a shameful adult, is not easy to stop Zhao Yuhua.

Yuan secretly made up his mind in his heart, the left is just a few fruit trees, and it is not expensive to buy them all, so I am very afraid.

…………

paid to buy the silk fabric that he was optimistic about first, and then Yuan and Zhao Yu squeezed into the circle full of teasing people around.

Sure enough, most of the people around were coming to join in the fun, and only two people wanted to buy fruit trees and were bargaining with the middle-aged vendors inside.

It's just that in the end, the two of them bought too little, and asked the middle-aged vendor to be cheaper, and the vendor felt that it was too much of a loss, so he didn't want to sell.

The two sides quarreled here.

Yuan and Zhao Yu watched and did not interject, but waited on the side.

Soon, the two sides directly collapsed because of the price issue.

"Boss, your fruit tree, my family wants to do it, come and settle the account,"

Zhao Yu directly saw the opportunity and shouted without stage fright, not only shaking everyone in place, but also making the two people who had just left stunned.

The middle-aged vendor was even more surprised, he stared at Zhao Yu for a while with wide eyes, and then set his eyes on the Yuan family beside Zhao Yu.

Yuan's hair was furious when she was looked at by the other party, and her body was even stiffer, she pulled Zhao Yu's sleeve and motioned Zhao Yu to speak quickly.

Zhao Yu received her mother's signal, glanced at the vendor, and directly repeated what she had just said.

When the vendor heard this, he frowned slightly, "One tree and fifteen wen, you all want it?" ”

Seeing that the girl was going and returning, and there was a woman who was obviously the head of the family beside her, the vendor couldn't help but ask again.

The Yuan family came over to help Zhao Yu buy fruit trees, and knowing the price of fruit trees, he nodded easily, "Yes, I want it." ”

"Hey, that's good," the middle-aged vendor showed a big smile and wiped his face, and hurriedly leaned over to the fruit tree, "I'll give you the number." ”

As he spoke, he put down a bundle of fruit trees and counted them carefully.

In order to facilitate storage, the fruit trees are broomed with their leaves when they are brought in.

So looking at the trees that were bare, without even a leaf, and even the roots underneath were tightly wrapped, neither of them could tell what kind of tree it was.

Soon, the vendor came back, and then told Yuan the number, "A total of seventy-five trees, one fifteen wen, a total of one thousand one hundred and twenty-five wen, wipe the odds, you give one thousand and one hundred wen." ”

The vendor was also arrogant, and his previous contempt for Zhao Yu also made him feel empty, so in the end, he simply did what he said, and really gave him a fraction of the twenty-five texts.

Yuan was also very satisfied with this, counted the money, and after confirming that there was no problem, he nodded to it, and then took out one or two pieces of silver and a copper plate of one hundred wen from his arms and handed them to the other party.

Next, it was Zhao Shanchuan who came over to report these fruit tree saplings to the car, and Yuan also held the light-colored silk fabric he bought, and left the stall with Zhao Yu.

After that, everyone went to other places of the expo and bought a lot of things, Zhao Yu also bought two jars of soybean oil, which are said to be newly researched in Jingzhou, which are particularly delicious, and the sweet and sweet nectar next to it.

In the end, Li and the others parked their cars at a vendor selling pork and bought a few catties of good boiled pork belly and pork ribs.

…………

When all these scattered items are bought, it is time for the Li family to visit Zhao Jinyan.

The Yuan family didn't need to go, because she had already discussed with the Liu family, and she was going to wait for Zhao Jinyan to come out of confinement and come over with the concubine at home to pay a salute.

In this regard, Li also had nothing to say.

asked the Li family to help bring some body-tonifying things to Zhao Jinyan to bring over, and the Yuan family and the Li family parted at the entrance of the market.

After seeing Li and Zhao Fuxiang drive away, Yuan greeted Zhao Shanchuan, got into the ox cart, and went to the county government to handle the rental of the shop.
