Chapter 92: Rounding up and erasing zeros

Qi Yu himself had plans to buy some local things in Quanzhou.

After listening to the young man's words, hehehehe, now I am also interested in this young man, you want to sell me something, I want to take you home.

"There are two pieces of this paper weaving flower, lacquer blue?" Qi Yu stared at the box next to him, simple and elegant, dignified and generous, it was a product made of people's labor and wisdom.

It is said that the bamboo basket is empty, and lacquer blue is also a kind of bamboo basket, but it completely subverts the saying that the water is empty.

The wisdom of the ancestors is unlimited, the bamboo is made into different lengths, widths and narrows of the slices and silk, with the slices as the warp, the silk as the weft, woven into a basket embryo.

The silk is long and thin, as thin as a hair, soft and can be wrapped around the fingers, the lacquer blue embryo woven into is tight and light, the basket embryo is smeared with tung putty, framed with summer cloth, covered with raw lacquer, and then carefully painted with various golden patterns on the handle, basket cover and basket body of the bamboo basket, and finally forms a complete lacquer basket.

The formation of a basket is not simple.

If you want it, you have to ask for it, even if you can't use it, you have to ask for it for the circulation of Quanzhou's economy.

Looking away from the lacquer blue, Qi Yu continued: "This lacquer blue box looks very good, I want a few, some persimmons, and longan." ”

Qi Yu said, the little guy's smiling eyes were almost gone.

This time I really met a fat sheep, hey, hey, guy, my heart is also beautiful.

Man'er took a brown paper bag and picked up a few persimmons and packed them, and after they were packed, they were handed to the young man, who came over with a weighing rod.

The scale rod was picked, weighed, and walked to Qi Yu's side with the scale: "Girl, look, this is not a whole number, the small one will add a little bit to you, it's good to make up an integer." ”

Qi Yu hadn't nodded yet, the little man reached out and took a big spoon and filled a big spoon of persimmons into the paper bag, his movements were quick and fast.

Man'er's eyes widened, this person ...... Why is this person's face so thick, this is not a whole but a direct doubling.

The young man didn't say anything, even if he found that Man'er's face was not good-looking, he didn't speak.

After weighing it together with Guiyuan, the young man's smiling eyes were invisible, and he looked at Qi Yu with a butcher-like smile: "Girl, a total of twenty-four taels of silver." ”

"Isn't it twenty-four taels of silver?" As long as Man'er saw the young man, he was unhappy, and took out twenty taels of silver from his purse: "Here you go." ”

"Girl, there are still four taels of silver left."

“…… Together, twenty taels of silver is just right. After speaking, Man'er looked at the young man triumphantly.

Hmph, isn't it just a scrap of the pie, who wouldn't.

How could the young man do this kind of money-losing business, well, if you earn less, it will be a loss for the young man: "No, girl, we are all open to do business, where can you still make money." ”

"Is it possible that you are only allowed to make up, and I am not allowed to erase the zero, okay things to be sent to the other courtyard next to Dongyue Palace, don't think of any crooked ideas, if these things are not clean, your life will not be saved."

When the young man is neat, his movements are neat, and when Man'er speaks, his mouth is also sharp, and when he slams his mouth up and down, the Beijing tone comes out, the young man's official words are not standard, he can't insert it, he is in a hurry, and he stomps his feet directly under the discomfort.

Man'er didn't care if the young man stomped his feet or not, threatened, and followed Qi Yu out of the shop.

The young man almost fainted from crying, four taels of silver, and if he said no, it would be gone.

If the person who buys something is a poor man, he can still give a beating to vent his anger, but look at the address left by the person, whether he is rich or expensive, where does he dare to do it.

Aggrieved, put things aside.

I spent a lot of money, found a few errands, and sent things over.

It also costs money to find errands, hey, the young man sighed, outsiders are so unauthentic, so unpretentious.

The boy thought that was the end of the matter.

However, within a few days, he was invited away by the messenger. Of course, these are not mentioned later.

Qi Yu walked around outside, and finally walked to the dock, at this time, there were not too many ships in Quanzhou Port, not even a slightly larger ship.

Since the Ming Dynasty, Quanzhou's shipping division moved to Fuzhou, Quanzhou Port was defeated, after the clearance into the customs, it was closed to the country, and the matter of shipping became more and more decaying.

Even Yongzhengye, who was not low in later generations, did not open the sea.

……

Thinking of the prosperous costumes of Quanzhou Port, and then looking at the scattered fishing capsizing boats, Qi Yu sighed.

For no reason, he heard a sense of depression from the sigh, and said busily: "Gege, let's go back, the sea breeze is a little cold, and your body can't stand it." ”

"It's okay, let's go pick up some shells."

"Oh." Man'er lowered his head, glanced at the fan-shaped shells on the ground, and bent down to pick them up.

As night falls, fishing boats float on the surface of the sea.

Fishermen put the crabs they catch in wooden barrels. The person who was originally protecting Qi Yu in the dark stepped into the light.

Seeing that there were more and more people on the dock, Man'er pulled Qi Yu's sleeve: "Gege, it's time for us to go back." ”

"Wait a minute, just a moment." Qi Yu looked at the fish jumping in the barrel and swallowed hard.

The freshly caught fish is fresh. Get two back, one braised and one steamed.

Approaching the fishermen's boat, Qi Yu also saw a few lobsters.

There are not many lobsters left in October, but the taste is still delicious. The capital is not coastal, even if he lives in the backyard of the fourth master, Qi Yu has never seen a lobster, let alone a famous Beijing food in later generations.

Now that you have seen it, you must not let it go, and catch a fisherman: "How do you sell lobsters?" ”

"......" The fisherman glanced at Qi Yu and did not speak.

Qi Yu suddenly beckoned to Man'er.

Man'er found a silver ingot.

Qi Yu put the money in the fisherman's hand, picked up the lobster with a piece of wood, put it in the bucket, and left.

……

The fisherman looked at the silver in his hand, and then looked at the bucket that Qi Yu was carrying, and finally understood, and reached out to pull Man'er who was following Qi Yu.

Man'er was stunned for a moment, what was this for, and was wondering, when the fisherman carried a bucket full of fish and stuffed it into Man'er's hand. Man'er took out a silver ingot and stuffed it into the fisherman's hand as Qi Yu looked, and the fisherman waved his hand and took out the silver he had just gotten and compared it, which means that the money is enough.

But Man'er didn't understand, and thought that the fishermen were showing off.

Is there a silver ingot that is so proud?

So Man'er took out another silver ingot, hmph, I have two.

…… When the busy fishermen saw so many silver ingots on Man'er, their eyes were not right.

The leader hurriedly retreated Man'er, and said a lame official dialect: "Take it away, take it away, just now, the silver is enough." ”
