Chapter 451: Everything in Moderation

Xia Qiqi's question, for a while, stumped the shopkeeper.

That's right, no matter what kind of sumac tree it is, there is a time limit for collection.

During the hottest months of the year, after this time, even if the sumac tree is cut down, no lacquer can come out.

Is he going to do it in a year, or in a month?

"Little girl, I can't answer this question for the time being, but you don't need to worry, wait for me to ask my boss and see his plans." The way of the shopkeeper.

Such a good bull head paint will never be used in this Ping'an Town on a large scale.

The shopkeeper knew in his heart that these raw lacquers would definitely go to the state capital, or the capital or something like that.

Xia Qiqi nodded, "It's okay!" However, the day when everything runs out, I hope the shopkeeper will not give me an indefinite period.

The lacquer tree also has a protection period, maybe to a certain extent, I won't cut the raw lacquer. ”

As the shopkeeper said before, bull's head paint was artificially overexploited in the early years, and as a result, the species became extinct.

Those raw lacquer on Hupi Mountain, it is estimated that because it is remote, no one has found it, so it has survived.

Her original intention was to make a sum of money, and when she had the capital, she would do business again.

But if this money is at the cost of the extinction of ox head lacquer, she would rather not go to the mountains to find the lacquer tree.

The shopkeeper of the lacquer shop listened to Xia Qiqi's words and fell into deep thought.

Indeed, unrestrained demands will only lead to the destruction of what is wanted.

Once it is gone, in the market, not to mention the rising price of such things, even if others rely on this to eat, they will eventually be repercussed because of exhaustion.

"Little girl, you can rest assured, our host is very good to discuss, I will definitely help you handle this matter." The shopkeeper gave Xia Qiqi a guarantee.

Xia Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, those from modern times should know how serious the consequences of over-exploitation of resources are.

Because of this, she must accept it when she sees it.

"Shopkeeper, do you want this bit of lacquer?" Xia Qiqi asked.

"Of course, I'm going to show this lacquer to my owner, it's a tael of silver for you to hold." The shopkeeper handed Xia Qiqi and one tael of silver.

Xia Qiqi changed hands to Lu Jiu.

In the past, Xia Qiqi did business in the town, and the money he got was given to Lu Jiu first.

Nothing else, he has great strength and is defensive, the money is on him, don't worry, he will be stolen, robbed, and cheated.

Even if a group of people come, don't be afraid.

Coming out of the lacquerware shop, Xia Qiqi rarely stretched his waist.

She looked around the street, and not far away, there were people making snacks, and she looked at it, and her mouth was greedy.

"Ah Jiu, let's go buy two buns to satisfy our hunger." Xia Qiqi Dao.

When I came out in the morning, I drank a bowl of porridge by myself, but after twenty or thirty miles, the water in my stomach had already been digested.

Lu Jiu nodded, followed Xia Qiqi, and went to buy steamed buns.

The two people stopped in front of the stall and offered two meat buns and two vegetarian buns to the stall.

The buns in the town are not small.

One can fill his belly, but Lu Jiu's situation is special, he has to eat two more buns than Xia Qiqi to barely fill his belly.

While eating steamed buns, I was ready to go to the Li Family Teahouse to have a look.

Xia Qiqi had already handed over the method of making milk tea to Xia Duogui, except when necessary, she and Fengzi basically went once every three days.

Rich Master Li has also reported it, and there have been no problems so far.

The two of them hadn't walked a few steps before they heard Xiao Er urging a man at the door of the porridge shop.

"I've said it all, it's been eight hundred times, we don't recruit people here, why don't you understand?" The young man asked impatiently.

The man was disgraced, and when he said this, his face was almost buried in his chest, "I'm sorry, I'm ...... I just think, your business here is good, there must be a shortage of dishes to serve and wash dishes, I want to give it a try. ”

"Come on, look at you like this, you have no two pieces of meat, you can't lift your hands, you can't carry your shoulders, we invite you, do you want to serve a bowl?" Xiao Er raised his voice, a look of displeasure.

"I can do anything else, you just have to tell me to." The man still wouldn't give up.

"I don't want to command, that's right, we are recruiting, but we don't recruit a weak scholar like you, the wind can blow you away, and when the time comes, we will have to pay for people."

That guy is also getting more and more unkind to speak.

Xia Qiqi originally went up to see the situation.

After taking a closer look, she found that the person turned out to be someone she knew, or the same village.

It's not that Wei Dong, who is it.

At this moment, Wei Dong's whole face has turned red into a shrimp ball, although he has been repeatedly insulted by that little er, but he can't say half a word to refute it, thinking about it, he really wants this job.

That's right, she remembered, Wei Dong's family is not good.

It all depends on the whole family to work together to sell iron for him to go to school.

This time, he injured his leg again, and spent a lot of money, and this time, when his leg was healed, he came to the town to look for work.

It's just that the job of recruiting people in the town is basically heavy work, and he definitely won't want him to be a thin scholar.

"Ah Jiu, let's go."

Xia Qiqi was not interested in rescuing Wei Dong, and that person stopped her at that time and said a bunch of unkind words.

Lu Jiu followed Mu Shuangshuang's side, neither of them looked at Wei Dong, and walked in the direction of the teahouse while nibbling on the bun.

Wei Dong originally wanted to leave, but suddenly saw Xia Qiqi and Lu Jiu.

He immediately felt that the two of them must have seen enough of his jokes before leaving.

He was so angry that he didn't pay attention to the little two, and rushed straight in the direction of Xia Qiqi.

His hand slapped down on Xia Qiqi's shoulder, but before he touched Xia Qiqi, Lu Jiu had already made a move and just grabbed his shoulder.

"Ah......" Wei Dong cried out in pain, and the expression on his face was also full of pain.

"Let go, let go ......"

Xia Qiqi turned around and saw Wei Dong, who looked like a clown jumping off the beam.

"Why are you following us?" Xia Qiqi asked.

"Who...... Who's following you? Wei Dong didn't want to admit it, "With such a big road, can you be the only one who can't take it?" My hand hurts, you let this barbarian let me go. Wei Dong shouted.

"Barbarians? Who do you say is a barbarian? Wei Dong, let me tell you, do you know what your name is? Tailgating and splashing dirty water, it's not bad if you haven't been beaten like this, and you dare to be brutal with Ah Jiu. "Xia Qiqi is not light.

She hated this one called Wei Dong more and more.

"I'm tailing you? It's clear that you see my jokes first, if you don't see my jokes, why will I follow you? Wei Dong asked with a straight face.

Hearing this, Xia Qiqi was happy.
