Chapter 46: The Town
"Dad, is it far from town?" On the way, Mu Li asked him.
"It's not far, it's an hour's walk away." Mu Daddy said.
It's not a cropper, although the figure looks thin, but the strength is undoubted, and carrying thirty or forty pounds of big pork legs looks easy.
One hour, that is, two hours.
It's not far, but there's no transportation, and if you have those ox carts and horse-drawn carts, it can be there in an hour.
The road to the town is not easy to walk, and Mu Li is very tired from walking.
In fact, the road to Xiongzi Mountain is even more difficult, but the place is remote, and there is no one along the way, so she can drink spiritual spring water to replenish her energy.
But now it's a big road, and people pass by from time to time on the road, and there is a father next to her, how dare she.
She did have some spiritual spring water in a bamboo tube, but she would be hungry if she drank it, and there were a lot of fruits in the space, so she couldn't take them out and eat them.
"What's wrong Xiaoli, are you tired?" Seeing that she seemed to be tired, Mu Dad asked.
"Okay." Mu Li said, there is still an hour before Xiang Wu, and he has to buy this pork leg before Xiang Wu as soon as possible, otherwise the price may be a little cheaper.
"Actually, Dad just comes, you don't have to come with you." Mu Dad said, he was easy to pit dozens of pounds of things, and she was so tired and panting just by walking.
"No, I want to see what the town looks like, I've never been to the town since I've grown so old." Mu Li smiled, her expression was the curiosity of an ordinary little girl in the town.
She naturally wanted to be familiar with this road, and she had to ask about the market of some things, so that she could sell things in the future.
"Your father and I haven't been here a few times in town, I don't have money to buy anything, and I don't have anything to sell, but this time I came thanks to this big pork leg." Mu Dad said happily.
Mu Li smiled and catered to a few words, and before she knew it, the town had arrived.
The town is also a place that is more advanced than the countryside, and the closer you get to the town, the more people on the road, and there are more than a dozen ox carts and donkey carts, which are not many in the countryside.
Of course, there are more people who walk with things on their backs like them.
It's just that those people are slightly better dressed than them, and they get a lot of contemptuous glances along the way.
Mu Dad didn't find this, Mu Li found out but didn't care, she didn't bother to deal with these people.
The houses in the town are much better than those in the country, and the worst ones are brick houses, and there are many tiled houses that resemble those on TV.
It's the middle of the day, and the streets are lined with stalls, and everyone on each stall is drinking their stuff, including grocery shopping, small toys, and some girls' favorite headbands, of course, the most grocery shopping.
People come and go, very lively.
But no one greeted Mu Dad, which eye in business was not bright, looking at her and Mu Dad's dress, they knew that they had no money, so naturally they would not spend that effort and time.
The look in the eyes that looked at them was even a little contemptuous.
Mu Dad smiled, honestly he didn't feel those people's contempt for them, his eyes looked east and west, and he felt that it was really lively, much more lively than the countryside.
Mu Li didn't go up to beg for it, so she secretly listened to the prices of those things in the stalls when she bargained from time to time, and she also had a clear idea of the basic prices in this world.
"Xiaoli, let's find a stall to sell this pork leg." Mu Dad said to her, and his eyes couldn't help but look at both sides of the street, but the stalls were full, and there was not even a single vacancy.
