Early the next morning, Mingyue took the newly made bow and crossbow and followed the fourth uncle Ming Wenli into the mountain again.

With the first experience, Ming Wenli obviously didn't have the panic before, holding the wooden bow and crossbow that Mingyue made himself before, and tried to shoot at the hares and pheasants he saw, but unfortunately, none of them hit.

Mingyue looked at the fourth uncle with a lost face and comforted, "Let's go home and make a target, practice often, and we will definitely be able to shoot." Fourth uncle, let me tell you honestly, in fact, the reason why I shoot so accurately is that I have practiced secretly. ”

Listening to Mingyue's words, Ming Wenli was finally no longer lost, but he didn't let go of the arrow easily, so as not to scare away the prey and gain nothing.

This time obviously did not have the luck of the last time, did not see the muntjac, the pheasants and hares were almost seven or eight, and the two did not dare to continue to go deeper, it was enough to have some gains, and they could not be too greedy.

Because Butcher Pan said before that the price of live game can be sold better, so when Mingyue shoots the prey, she tries not to shoot the vital point, but most of them are still alive.

The two went back to the cave, and after lunch, they went to the town with their prey, and went directly to Pan's butcher's house first.

When Butcher Pan saw the two of them, he seemed to be very happy, and warmly greeted the two of them into the door, but when he saw the prey in the hands of the two, there were only pheasants and hares, and there was still a trace of disappointment on his face, but when he saw that several prey were still alive, he was a little more satisfied.

Mingyue didn't beat around the bush, and asked straight to the point, "Uncle Pan, I don't know if this business can still be done?" ”

Butcher Pan replied with a smile, "Well done, but it's a pity that there are no prey such as muntjac today." ”

Mingyue said with a smile, "I'm afraid Uncle Pan has heard of the current situation of our family, the family is still busy cleaning up the land, but they don't have much time to hunt, and when they have time later, the prey will definitely be more, you can rest assured, there will be no less precious prey." ”

Butcher Pan smiled and responded shrewdly, "That's good, that's good, or is it the old price?" I've given you a name. ”

Ming Wenli was originally a rectum, and he seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Butcher Pan's words, and was about to speak, but was gently pulled by Mingyue, and Mingyue had already opened his mouth before Mingwenli.

Mingyue was still smiling, and said with a smile, "Uncle Pan, you said last time that the price of living creatures is better?" The kind and flattering smile on his face has a magic that people can't refuse.

Businessman, that's it, he always has to fight for his own best interests, and Mingyue didn't think there was anything wrong with Butcher Pan like this, so she stopped the fourth uncle from talking.

Butcher Pan laughed, and said as he went over and weighed, "You girl, you are really shrewd, Uncle Pan can't take advantage of you secretly." ”

Mingyue responded, "Isn't our family also poor, and we have no choice but to take care of every bit of it, otherwise we won't be able to go on this day." ”

Mingyue said this, which made Butcher Pan smile embarrassedly, and said, "It's not mine, just thinking about making more profits, forgetting about the situation of your family, that is, a living creature, I will give you ten more cents for every catty." ”

Ten wen was added to the pound alive, but it was not too little, Mingyue hurriedly thanked her, "Then thank you Uncle Pan." ”

Without muntjac, these prey were only sold for five and a half taels of silver in the end, but the two of them were quite satisfied, at least enough to pay for the bow and crossbow.

The two took the silver and went directly to the blacksmith shop Blacksmith Li's house, and Mingyao had already begun to clean up.

Mingyue counted the things in the eldest brother's package, a bow and crossbow, seven iron arrows, and calculated, almost six taels of silver, Mingyue asked Mingwenli to take out seven taels of silver, walked to Blacksmith Li, who was still busy next to the iron-melting furnace, handed the silver to Blacksmith Li, and said, "Trouble Uncle Li." ”

After all, the cost also needs money, and these refined irons can be regarded as the belongings that have been saved over the years, and Blacksmith Li was not polite, took the silver in Mingyue's hand, counted the silver in his hand, only took six taels, and handed the remaining one tael back to Mingyue, saying, "These are enough." ”

Mingyue didn't answer, and said, "We're not polite, if you say it's to pay the salary, I'm afraid these seven taels are only enough for the capital, right?" Don't put it back either. ”

Ming Yao also spoke, "Master, you can take it, these fine irons, I'm afraid this bit of silver is not enough." ”

Blacksmith Li could only say, "Okay, I'll take it, but can I make this bow and sell it to Orion?" When he said this, Blacksmith Li's eyes were looking at Mingyue, and he heard Mingyao say that this bow and crossbow seemed to be obtained by Mingyue unintentionally, and it could be transformed like this, and this girl also came up with it.

Mingyue hadn't thought about this problem, she didn't know how the cold weapons in this place were developing, but just in case, Mingyue still seriously instructed, "Uncle Li should have heard of the situation in Xianbei outside the gate now, right?" In this way, there is a high probability of war on our border, if this bow and crossbow is beneficial to the army's war, and they find out, I am afraid that it will invite disaster, I think Uncle Li should not easily make and sell it. ”

Mingyue didn't force Blacksmith Li not to sell it, but she analyzed the danger of selling this thing to Blacksmith Li, as for how to choose, it was Blacksmith Li's own business.

Blacksmith Li listened to Mingyue's words, nodded and said, "It's still my niece who thinks clearly, I understand." ”

Seeing Blacksmith Li listen to it, Mingyue was also relieved, and continued, "If Uncle Li is free, remember to help make a few more, after all, our family now lives in Daliang Mountain, I think everyone in the family has a bow and crossbow, and there are things to defend themselves, so the safety is more guaranteed." ”

Blacksmith Li responded with a smile, "No problem, just get it after a while." ”

After that, Mrs. Li wanted to keep them for dinner, but they were worried that they would have to touch the night road when they went back too late, so they refused, and when Mingyao packed up his things, the group went back to the outer mountain village.

Before leaving, Mingyue saw the girl of the Li family looking at her eldest brother Mingyao's reluctant expression, and she scolded in her heart, these two must have a story.

On the way, Mingyue gossiped and asked, "Big brother, tell me if you have any story with that Miss Li?" ”

Mingyao looked left and right, no one breathed a sigh of relief, glared at Mingyue, and scolded, "Don't talk nonsense, if you let people hear this, you will ruin the reputation of other girls." ”

Mingyue then remembered that this was a feudal society where men were superior to women, and couldn't help but stick out her tongue, but she obediently closed her mouth and stopped talking nonsense.

Back to Daliang Cave, in the past few days, everyone has been busy taking care of the wooden wall at the entrance of the cave, the strength of the number of people is great, and there is a strong man of Ming Wenli, the wooden wall at the entrance of the cave has almost been erected.

The lower row is a row of wooden piles, after all, the wood cut back is uneven, and the mouth of the cave is still a little high, and the upper position cannot reach the top of the mouth of the cave.

However, Mingyue also had her own way, using wood to make a figure-eight quadrangular bracket ladder, and then using slightly thinner wood to make a bracket on it, and then stuck the wooden board made according to the gap, and fixed the two ends with prepared iron nails, so that the entire cave entrance was enclosed.

Later, the two sides of the residents were also separated, and the middle part was reserved as a common area for living.

It took almost two days to arrange all this, and early in the morning, as soon as the sky turned white, everyone in the Ming family got up.

Mingyue, who has always gotten up early, didn't want to get up this day, and she didn't move for a long time on the Chase shop that was built with wood yesterday, only until Xu Jinniang shouted a second time, and her younger brother Mingyang laughed twice and her sister was lying in bed, and Mingyue got up slowly.

Today is the day when the sister-in-law Mingmei got married, and she got married from her uncle and grandfather's house in Dalu Village, and this big family must go over early in the morning to help.

Mingyue really can't figure it out, now that the situation at home is still in her uncle's house, why do you have to hold a banquet? also invited people from the village to come over, Mingyue thought to herself, the current situation in her family, coupled with the deliberate suppression of the Xu family, I am afraid that there were few people in the past.

After inking for a long time, I finally followed the door down the mountain and went to Dalu Village.

On the Li family's side of Dalu Village, since Mingyue left, Mrs. Li asked Wu Wei to go to the town to call her son Li Qiang back.

Li Qiang heard that his mother told him to go back, thinking that there was something, so he didn't dare to delay and returned to Dalu Village, entered the courtyard gate, and saw his mother sitting in the courtyard with a fan, fanning the wind, so he relieved his heart.

"Mother, why are you in a hurry to call me back?" Li Qiang hurriedly asked, if there is nothing wrong, he has to rush back to the town, and his daughter is watching alone in this store, and he is not at ease.

The previous guy is gone, and the business in the store is not good, so I haven't looked for anyone again, and now the business in the store is gradually improving, and it seems that I still have to find a guy to help as soon as possible.

Mrs. Li motioned for her son to sit first, and when her son sat down on the stool in the courtyard, Mrs. Li asked, "The girl you went to see last time was the bright moon of the Ming family?" ”

Li Qiang nodded and responded, "Yes, but when I inquired later, that girl was actually the girl of the Ming family who dared to cut people with a knife, and then I went to see it in person, she was at her grandfather's house, that is amazing, the master who dares to beat people, so strong, if you let Yun'er marry back, how can it be done?" I didn't promise the Ming family's aunt. ”

Mrs. Li glanced at her son dissatisfied, and scolded, "This well-behaved and diligent girl, speaking of which, it is the blessing of Yun Xiaozi, beating someone at her grandfather's house, it must be that person who is not beaten, how can she be tough?" ”

Li Qiang heard something strange, and defended the girl like this, and asked curiously, "Has my mother seen that girl?" ”

Mrs. Li didn't answer Li Qiang's words, but instructed Li Qiang, "That's it, since her grandmother is willing to do this family business, you hurry up and prepare and go to Ming's house to propose." ”

Li Qiang didn't understand why his mother liked this family business, and forced himself to propose, but he was still a little unhappy in his heart, so he reluctantly responded first, "Okay, mother, when I'm busy in the store these days, I'll prepare for it, and then I'll go to propose." ”

Mrs. Li frowned and said, "You can move faster, don't let people take the lead." ”
