Chapter 9: The Three-Day Covenant

Yu Wan was busy with business, she didn't know anything about the chef of Bai Yulou, and when the ingredients were sold out, she found that the crucian carp of the Yu brothers had not yet opened, she walked over and asked the two brothers: "Big brother, second brother, do you want to sell it to me?" ”

Their crucian carp, though smaller, is also wild, and should be able to sell it soon while there are still customers on her side who have not yet dispersed.

"No need." Yu Song refused without thinking, and his tone was not very good.

Yu Wan didn't see annoyance, smiled, and said, "I'm going to call it a day, there's nothing to do next, do you need my help here?" ”

Sold out?

The two brothers were stunned, and looked at Yu Wan's stall, and saw that there was really nothing left of her basket and barrel, and compared with their own side, the brothers' faces were ashamed.

Why are two big men not as good as a little girl?

"You're busy, go back early when you're done." Yu Feng didn't want to stay with her.

"There is still a mother at home, so I really should go back earlier." Yu Wan nodded and said to the two, "I'll buy something, and I'll go back when I'm done." ”

"Hmm." Yu Feng replied lightly, someone came to buy sweet potatoes, he went to greet the business, and no longer bothered Yu Wan.

Yu Wan seemed to be very accustomed to his coldness, so she didn't bother him, and left as usual.

Yu Feng accepted the money and handed the sweet potato to the visitor, Yu Guang glanced at Yu Wan's back, and a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes.

……

Today's harvest is good, fifteen wild crucian carp and more than twenty catties of winter bamboo shoots, a total of five hundred and eleven wen, which is half a tael of silver, although it is not worth mentioning compared with the salary in the previous life, but as the first pot of gold in another world, Yu Wan is still quite satisfied.

Yu Wan put away the cooking utensils, put them in the big basket behind her, and took the small iron egg to the market.

There are many things she needs to buy, most of which can be bought at the market, such as soy sauce, vinegar, and sugar.

The brown sugar here is twice as expensive as the white sugar, thinking of Jiang's body, Yu Wan gritted her teeth and bought it.

There was still some cornmeal at home, so Yu Wan bought five catties of rice.

Yu Wan also wanted to buy some meat for her family, thinking that lean meat was too expensive, and it would be good to eat some fatty meat.

"You buy two catties of fat, and I'll take you a little skinny." The butcher said with great cheerfulness.

Yu Wan: "......"

Shouldn't you buy skinny, can you take me a little fat?

Yu Wan finally bought three catties of fat meat, mainly not to satisfy her hunger, but to refine oil.

The only vegetarian oil in this era is flax oil, that is, sesame oil in the previous life, commonly known as sesame oil, and the price of flax oil is too high, and ordinary people like her can't afford it.

Thinking about it this way, the reason why fatty meat is expensive is not entirely unreasonable.

More expensive than oil is salt.

I didn't have to sell it in the salt market, so I had to go to a special salt shop to buy it.

Yu Wan inquired about the location of the salt shop, which was on a street in Lianhua Town, and it was only half a cup of tea to walk over.

After entering Lianhua Town, everything became orderly, and the two sides were no longer lined with tarpaulin sheds or thatched mud houses, but with blue bricks and red tiles, smooth roads, and busy streets...... Even the pedestrians' clothes have become glamorous and classy.

"Wow! Wow! Wow......" The little iron egg was stunned, and he couldn't even do it well.

"Osmanthus Cake—Fragrant and Sweet Osmanthus Cake—"

From the opposite side came the loud shouting of the hawkers.

Xiao Tie Dan had just eaten his stomach, and he didn't feel hungry at this time, but when he asked about the sweet aroma, he still swallowed his saliva angrily.

Yu Wan smiled and said, "I'll buy it for you later." ”

"I'm ...... I...... I didn't want to eat osmanthus cake! "Little Iron Egg stomped his feet.

Yu Wan joked: "I didn't say that I bought you osmanthus cake." ”

The little face who didn't admit himself, the little face blushed all of a sudden.

"Here we are." Yu Wan looked at the salt shop in front of her and said.

"Then let's get in!" Knowing that he would be able to eat osmanthus cake soon, Xiao Tie Dan excitedly took Sister A's hand and jumped into the shop!

This salt shop is an official shop, and the lobby is very spacious, and you can't see any other goods except salt.

"How did you do that? The salt that was transported over was not as good as once, such an inferior salt, how did you let the guests of Baiyulou eat it? ”

"Miss Bai has wronged us, we have been selling salt from the same place, and what we send to you is carefully selected and high-quality refined salt, and I have never taken out the bad salt!"

"You believe me!" The girl in the goose-yellow dress and veil was so angry that she smashed a bag of salt on the counter.

Dare to be so arrogant in the official shop, the girl's background is not small.

Yu Wan didn't step forward to touch her head, took her brother's hand, and quietly looked at the salt beside her.

The girl argued with the shopkeeper a few more words, but did not take the bag of salt away: "I don't care! I don't want this salt! It's up to you to do it yourself! ”

After that, the girl left angrily, and when she passed by Yu Wan, she paused and reminded angrily: "The salt here is terrible, if I were you, I would go to the capital to buy it!" ”

I don't know who I'm talking about this.

Yu Wan shook her head, she, a village girl who couldn't even afford to eat white rice and had to show up to beg for a living, would she care whether the taste of salt was good or bad?

You shouldn't be looking for her to be so stumbling like this when making a raft, this girl can't hold her breath, and she doesn't have the strength to see yet.

The old shopkeeper changed the flattery in front of the girl, and casually knocked on the abacus on the counter: "Thirty copper plates for second-class salt, and sixty copper plates for first-class salt." ”

"How much?" Yu Wan asked.

The old shopkeeper didn't lift his eyelids, and ordered the small bowl on the counter.

Yu Wan took a cursory look, this is not a catty at all, it can be eaten in a month, and it must be eaten sparingly.

And the quality of this salt is indeed as the girl said, and the quality is a little inferior.

But she has no choice, who let the salt transportation all firmly in the hands of the government, the finest salt is sent to the dignitaries, and what is left for ordinary people is inferior but not cheap "cheap salt".

After Yu Wan bought two catties of second-class salt, there were only about 400 copper plates left on her body.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Wan bought two pairs of cotton shoes for Xiao Tie Dan and Jiang Shi each, and spent a hundred copper plates.

The remaining copper plate Yu Wan planned to use it to buy some tools that could be hunted, but when she passed by a pharmacy with a small iron egg, she inadvertently heard Yu Feng's voice.

"I only have so much in my hand for the time being, can you let me take the medicine back first and bring it to you another day? You see I'm also a regular visitor to your house, you don't have to worry about me defaulting......"

The medicine boy said unceremoniously: "That's not good! You haven't paid off your arrears last time, and you want to take credit again! How can there be such a good thing? The year is over, you hurry up and settle the account! ”

Yu Feng clenched his fists: "But my father is waiting for ......"

"Don't say anything! I'm not going to give you any more credit! ”

"My dad really ......"

The medicine boy impatiently interrupted Yu Feng's words: "I'm also true!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a girl's slender hand reached over and poured out a bag of copper plates unhurriedly.

"These, is that enough?"

She poured it out without leaking.

Yu Feng and Yu Songqi on the side looked at her in unison.

Yu Feng's face turned a little red.

The medicine boy counted the copper plates on the table, smacked his lips and said, "Today's medicine money is enough, but the previous credit ......"

"Then grab today's medicine first, and I'll give it to you in three days on credit."

"Oh no......"

"Profit with interest."

Only then did the medicine boy look at Yu Wan with straight eyes.

Yu Wan was looked up and down, not flustered at all, and said calmly: "The capital will be given, and the profit will also be given, if I don't give it after three days, I will go to the government with you." ”

"You're crazy!" Yu Feng grabbed her arm, "Do you know how much it is?" ”

Yu Wan didn't answer his words, but smiled faintly and asked, "Can the uncle's medicine be broken?" ”

Yu Feng's fingers clenched.
