The carriage soon headed for the next village.

"The name of this village is interesting!" Wang Baiyu looked at the stone tablet standing on the side and said, "Generally, villages are named after their surnames, but what about here?" Actually named after the fruit? ”

"I think it might have something to do with that col full of pepper flowers!" Liu has already figured out the personalities of these people, and she knows that Qiao Su and the others are really good people and very sincere people, so Liu is more open to talking to them.

She saw that Qiao Su and Wang Baiyu were looking at her, so she smiled and said: "Red is originally the color of joy, and many places that pay more attention to it think that red ward off evil spirits, this village is next to the col with chili pepper flowers, of course, I hope that I can use that red to live a prosperous life, so I think, this Hongguo Village red fruit should refer to the red fruit that grows in the pepper flower, not the sour red fruit we eat."

Wang Baiyu immediately said: "I see! I thought this village was called Hongguo Village because of the abundance of hawthorn! ”

"You'd really like to!" Qiao Su nodded Wang Baiyu's head with his finger, "What if coriander is abundant?" What about tofu? ”

"Then it's called Coriander Village, Tofu Village? I don't care anyway! And I don't think there's anything wrong with this kind of name, because it makes people understand at once what the village is based on, so if you need to buy it, wouldn't it be very convenient? Wang Baiyu felt that what he said made sense, so he smiled very proudly.

Hou Chen, the little attendant, immediately nodded frantically on the side, "I also think what Senior Sister said is very reasonable!" ”

"Me too, me too!" Xiao Xu spoke immediately after not falling behind.

"It's coming!" Qin Shen's voice came from the front of the carriage.

Josu reached out and pulled the curtain open, and he could already see the curling smoke in front of him.

It's already afternoon, and they're going to pick peppers today, and the people in the village can pick them at night or during the day tomorrow, but they have to think about how to pay them in advance.

Then tomorrow they will stay in the village for the night, and the day after tomorrow they will set off for Shunzhou City.

"What are you thinking?" Qin Shen turned his head to look at the silent Qiao Su and asked.

"I'm thinking...... How do you pay the people in the village? Qiao Su frowned and searched, if she knew the price of chili peppers, it would be easier to calculate, but the problem was that she didn't know! Because when she was in Yuzhou, it didn't cost anything to start over with chili peppers, because chili peppers beckoned to her every day at their doorstep!

"Actually, you can compare the prices of similar seasonings. A shop that sells seasonings must wrap the cost of the shop, the cost of work, and the cost of purchase, so if you find a similar price to calculate, it should be about the same. Qin Shen said.

"Something like that?" Qiao Su frowned, "But there's nothing like chili!" ”

"Why not?" Wang Baiyu said on the side, "Sichuan pepper and sesame pepper!" ”

Qiao Su: The taste of "......" pepper and pepper is clear

Is it much worse than chili?

"Master! You can't compare with your palate! After all, among people who don't know about these seasonings, they must think that these things are spicy, so it should be about the same! Wang Baiyu said.

All right! Qiao Su suddenly felt that Wang Baiyu's statement was very reasonable!

"It's okay, but it's smaller." Qin Shen said, "Because the particles of peppercorns and peppers are very small and the weight is very light, even if there are cooks who can use them, they will not use them in large quantities, which causes that there will not be too much peppercorns and peppercorns in the seasoning shop, and naturally the price of this thing is a bit high!" ”

"Justified, justified!" "But pepper flowers are different, pepper flowers are easy to grow and easy to grow. As long as there are chili seeds, people can easily grow a field of chili pepper flowers! And this thing is still not known to everyone, not to mention the high price, even if the price is low, it is estimated that not many people will buy it! ”

Qin Shen nodded and said, "That's the truth."

When he was in Yuzhou City, Qin Shen was in charge of managing the accounts of their restaurant, so even if he didn't go out to buy, he still knew the price of everything they needed in the store!

"I think you can refer to the price of bay leaves." Qin Shen said.

Josu thought for a moment, "Yes! These peppers are naturally raised, so I'll pay the people in the village at one-fifth of the normal price! ”

"Then let the people in the village sort out the chili national teachers." Liu said, "If you even have flowers and leaves, one-eighth is a bit much." ”

Qiao Su thought for a while, "In that case, we will set two prices, whether they are willing to hand over only the fruit or the whole plant to us, and they will let them." ”

"Generally, the village has a big scale for weighing vegetables, and when the time comes, we will borrow the scale from the village chief and weigh them." Li Zhou said.

"It's good!" Josu nodded.

So the matter was happily decided.

When they arrived at Hongguo Village, Li Zhou got out of the carriage and inquired about the location of the village chief's house, and then drove the carriage over and asked the village chief where it was more appropriate for them to stay in this village for two days.

The village chief's family is now the old couple, because their children are all working in Shunzhou City, and they will only come back when they are resting.

This time, it happened that their children had only been back for a few days, and it would take at least ten days and half a month to come back, so Li Zhou and them could afford to stay at his house.

Li Zhou led the carriage to the courtyard of the village chief's house, and the village chief's mother-in-law took Qiao Su and them to see the house.

Li Zhou and Qin Shen took Hou Chen and Xiao Xu together, Qiao Su, Wang Baiyu and Liu together.

After everyone settled down, Qin Shen went to see the village chief of Hongguo Village, whose surname was Chen.

"Uncle Chen, we have something we want you to discuss." Qin Shen said to Village Chief Chen.

"You say!" Village Chief Chen immediately called his mother-in-law to come over to make tea, and personally moved a stool for Qin Shen.

"My surname is Qin, and Uncle Chen calls me Mr. Qin. Well, we need some people to go into the mountains and pick those for us

Hongguo, of course, this is not for nothing, we will pay the wages! Qin Shen said.

When Village Chief Chen heard this, he immediately became happy, give the salary? "Mr. Qin, I want to ask, are the red fruits you said the same ones in the mountain col in front?"

"Yes!" Qin Shen nodded.

Village Chief Chen frowned, "It's no problem to help, but I want to say that that thing just looks good and tastes good...... Gee! His indescribable appearance reminded Qin Shen of how stupid he was when he first ate chili peppers.
