Chapter 66: Tile City



"Qing'er, can you move?" Yang Huazhou turned his head and asked Yang Ruoqing, who was following him.

Under the man's eyes, something called distress and guilt flashed.

"Qing'er, it's uncle who is incompetent, and he can't get an ox cart, so let you walk over by yourself for thirty miles, uncle ......"

"Fifth uncle, what are you talking about? Qing'er is not the delicate young lady of the landlord and the old rich family, these dozens of miles are nothing! ”

Yang Ruoqing said with sparkling eyebrows.

"Besides, Qing'er likes to walk, not to mention the hot sweat all over my body, I can still grind off the excess fat on my body, how good!"

"Forehead ......" Yang Huazhou is full of black lines, which is also a reason?

The man's eyes looked around Yang Ruoqing's body again, as if he had found something, Yang Huazhou said with some surprise: "Don't say it, Uncle feels that you have really lost weight during this time, that face ...... It's all a little smaller! ”

"Really, uncle?"

When Yang Ruoqing heard this, she was happy, and she stretched out a free hand and touched her face a few times.

To be honest, she touches it every day, and she really can't find anything famous.

However, she believed that Yang Huazhou did not lie to her, and she must have lost weight over time.

No longer has to eat the rations of his father and mother and the three of himself as before, and he doesn't sleep with his head covered in the daytime.

After crossing over, I standardized my work and rest time, reduced my diet, strengthened my exercise, and was busy at home and outside every day.

"Uncle, Qing'er will continue to lose weight, slimming into a girl of normal size, just wait and see!" Yang Ruoqing said with a grin.

Yang Huazhou smiled: "As long as your body is good, it's actually nothing to be fat and thin, you look like this, and you look good in the eyes of your uncle, you can't find such a pleasing girl in ten miles and eight villages, hehe......"

Yang Ruoqing's head was full of black lines, this fifth uncle thought he was a stupid man, but he didn't expect that when it came to spoiling, he was also a good hand!

"Come, hang your basket on this pole!"

Yang Huazhou felt sorry for Yang Ruoqing's small strength and weak strength, so he insisted on taking the basket.

"Wow, this rabbit is quite heavy, not to mention five pounds, right?" He asked.

"Weighed, five pounds and eight taels!"

"Well, do you plan to send this rabbit to a restaurant or sell it in a tile market?" Yang Huazhou asked again.

"Uncle, this is the first time I've come back to the town to do business, and I don't know the price market, so you better tell me first!" Yang Ruoqing said.

Regarding the ancient trading rules and general market conditions, Yang Ruoqing in her previous life had read similar books and records.

She is not as blind as she said, but she doesn't know how much the price market of this ancient era she has traveled to is different from the market of the ancient era of China, so it is better to ask clearly and feel more down-to-earth!

Yang Huazhou thought about it carefully, organized the language, and reported the prices of these things that he knew that were closely related to life to Yang Ruoqing one by one.

Yang Ruoqing combed through the information provided by Yang Huazhou again, and soon had a score in her heart.

In this era, meat buns and eggs are all a penny, and pork is fifteen pennies a catty.

Like rabbits and yellow eels, the price of game is higher than that of pork, about 30 yuan a catty.

Roughly converted to modern currency, the purchasing power of a penny is about the same as that of a dollar. One tael of silver is a thousand dollars, so one tael of silver is also a thousand yuan!

"If this live rabbit is sent to the restaurant, it will definitely be thrown away immediately, but the price of the restaurant will be lower than that in the tile market. If you take it to the tile market and sell it, the price should be better, but it won't be sold so quickly, you have to wait! Yang Huazhou analyzed.

Yang Ruoqing thought for a while, "Let's try our luck in Washi first!" ”

The uncle and nephew then buried their heads in the road, thirty miles away, the two of them stopped on the way, took out the tea prepared by the Sun family and drank it, and then hurried.

When a red sun slowly peeked out of the eastern hillside, the residents of Qingshui Town, who had slept all night, woke up and began a new day of livelihood rushing.

"Qing'er, it's here ahead."

"Hmm!"

Yang Ruoqing nodded, and looked at the undulating blue-gray house in front of her, this is Qingshui Town.

It was a little different from the picture she imagined in her mind, there was no traffic, and there were no tall restaurants, teahouses and shops.

On both sides of the bluestone street, which can accommodate two horse-drawn carriages passing side by side, there are rows of low houses, and signboards are erected at the door, some of which are hung with flags, marking the business of each shop.

"Big steamed buns in the north, old steamed buns, big meat buns with thin skin and many fillings...... Just out of the cage, want to buy it, come and ......"

At the door of the steamed bun shop on the side, the guy was shouting loudly, bringing out a cage of steamed buns that had just come out of the pot and placing them on a wooden table more than one meter long.

There is a large hollowed-out circular hole on the table, and a charcoal-burning water stove is connected to the ground, and the water is boiling and bubbles.

The guy put the bun cage on it to heat and keep warm, opened the top cage lid, the heat hit the face, and the unique fragrance of the bun suddenly wafted in the air.

There is already a circle of people in front of the table, you three and I buy two.

Yang Ruoqing was so hooked by the fragrance that she swallowed her saliva fiercely, she ate wild vegetable porridge last night, and she was in a hurry this morning, and she didn't have half a grain of rice in her stomach.

At this time, I saw the pile of steamed buns like a hill, and I only felt that my chest was about to stick to my back.

"Qing'er, are you greedy? Uncle bought you a big meat bun! ”

Yang Huazhou said, and he was about to put down the flat burden on his shoulders. was stopped by Yang Ruoqing.

"Uncle, don't be in a hurry to eat now, let's go to Washi to sell things first." Yang Ruoqing said.

The plan of the day lies in the morning, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and there must be more people in Washi in the morning than at other times.

She can't delay.

What's more, this business hasn't opened yet, so she has to spend money to go out first, she doesn't do it, let alone Yang Huazhou.

The money on Yang Huazhou's body, but Qiu's fingers pinched it, and there was one less copper plate!

Yang Huazhou couldn't be stubborn, so he had to send Yang Ruoqing to Washi in the north of the town first.

On the way, Yang Huazhou told Yang Ruoqing about the relevant situation in Washi in detail.

Washi is just a noun, which basically means a place for the exchange of various items closely related to life.

There are all kinds of stalls that are resident, and the stall owners have to pay regular taxes to the government, and some are hawkers like Yang Ruoqing, who have no fixed stalls, are temporary, and have strong mobility.

These vendors are farmers, fishermen, hunters, etc., near the town......

Every once in a while, you have to pay a certain venue fee to sell things in the tile market. Of course, these temporary venues must not be compared with those fixed stalls, people have been here for a long time, pay higher rent, and the stalls must be prime locations.

Like Yang Ruoqing, who comes in for sale temporarily, it's good to be able to give you a corner!

Fortunately, the venue fee was not much, Yang Ruoqing paid five cents, and then followed Yang Huazhou into Washi.

This is the first time Yang Ruoqing has walked into the ancient tile city, and a pair of novel eyes are looking around.

This is undoubtedly an ancient farmers' market, where vegetables, fruits, and poultry are all sold.
