Chapter 9 Principles

After leaving the mansion, Wen Lingjun and Qiu Yu each rode horses and went to the official road, and the horse's hooves walked slowly, so they really couldn't see what they were going to do.

Qiu Yu endured for a moment, and couldn't help but ask Wen Lingjun, "Where are you going?" ”

Wen Lingjun seemed to have just woken up, thought for a moment expressionlessly, and said, "Go and see Zuo Qunan." ”

Qiu Yu was puzzled: "Master, you just went to see the young general this morning." ”

The horse's hooves seemed to pause, Wen Lingjun glanced at Qiu Yu, and the other party immediately lowered his head, and then, he casually glanced at both sides of the official road, grabbed the horse's belly, and walked away.

Qiu Yurao couldn't understand what medicine the third prince had taken wrong today, so he could only follow honestly.

Fang Jin was born in this place for more than half a month, but he went out with a bad head, and his heart naturally flew like a wild dog on the loose. However, at the time of the national funeral, the business of the butcher shop in the restaurant was not ideal, and it was not very interesting to eat without meat. Fortunately, there are a lot of new things for her, and the aunt and nephew dragged Liu Chaochao all the way to see all the way, and took all the way, making Liu Chaochao one head and two big.

"Master, master, this is for three-year-old children!" Liu Chaochao snatched the rattle from Fang Jinsheng's hand, feeling that she was about to be thrown to her grandmother's house, she changed the purchased object she was carrying in her right hand to her left hand, dragged Fang Jinsheng to the tea stall next to her, and said, "Please, sit down and take a sip of tea for a while." ”

Fang Jin's life is like entering Hengdian Film and Television City, full of energy, he doesn't pick it at this time, and happily follows him, "Okay, good." ”

Wen Xin looked at Fang Jinsheng's fresh energy, and his mood became equally happy. The three of them drank some coarse tea at the tea stall, and in less than a moment, Fang Jinsheng suddenly saw a passing woman carrying a small basket of mulberries, and he was itching to see it, and turned Liu Chaochao and said, "Let's go, buy food." ”

Wen Xin immediately got up when he heard the voice, as if he had endless strength. And Liu Chaochao howled bitterly, and was dragged by Fang Jinsheng to the side of the hawker stall at the corner of the street.

Fang Jinsheng saw a basket of black and shiny mulberries, saliva swirled in his mouth, and he couldn't help but squat down and grab a handful, it was natural for customers to choose items for her, but people didn't necessarily think so. When the peddler saw her stretch out her paws, he almost didn't take off his shoes and slapped her with the soles of his shoes, and screamed, "What are you doing!" What do you do! ”

Before Fang Jinsheng could reply, Liu Chaochao couldn't hold back first: "What are you yelling about?" I'm not trying to rob you. ”

As soon as Liu Chaochao spoke, Fang Jinsheng suddenly felt that it was a confident thing for someone to dig out of his pocket, and immediately came to the momentum, and echoed: "That's it!" You wrap this and this - all for me, I want it! ”

Liu Chaochao looked at her dumbfounded, stretched out his finger and pointed around, his jaw was about to drop, and said, "Master, can you eat so much?" ”

"After eating, there are many people." Fang Jinsheng replied while touching.

As soon as he heard the word "master", and then looked at the clothes of these three people, the hawker knew that this stroke was not simple, so he immediately changed his smiling face and put on the scale, "Come on, I'll wrap it all up for you!" ”

Fang Jinsheng clapped his hands, stood up, and turned Wen Xin with a smile.

Seeing her like this, Liu Chaochao knew that persuasion could not be done, so while touching the money bag, he asked weakly: "How much?" ”

The other party took the scales, and showed up with a mouthful of open teeth: "Fifteen catties and six taels, you want them all, and I will give you one tael or four dollars of silver." ”

"What's that?"

Fang Jinsheng didn't eat ancient fireworks, and he didn't listen to them in his head, but when she heard Liu Chaochao shouting like this, she paused for a moment, and was a little confused: "What's wrong, what's wrong?" ”

Liu Chaochao pointed to the mulberries in the bamboo basket and asked the vendor, "How much do you want for this catty?" ”

The peddler obviously didn't expect Liu Chaochao to ask for the specific price, smiled shyly for a while, and said: "Where did the mulberries come from in the north during this period, my baskets are all transported from the south, how sweet and sweet it is, it will never deceive people, don't believe you taste it yourself?" ”

After he finished speaking, he held a handful of mulberries in front of Fang Jinsheng - this is the master, he made the master happy, how could what the words of the subordinates have any effect?

It's a pity that Fang Jinsheng didn't eat it, not because she saw any clues, but because this thing was not washed.

Liu Chaochao was impatient: "Don't you open the topic for me and ask you how much is a pound?" ”

The other party looked at her unrelenting attitude, and showed a look of "you are bored", and replied: "A penny of silver." ”

Liu Chaochao's eyes widened: "A pound of silver?" Why don't you go and rob you? ”

The peddler laughed: "You also know that once this thing is not stored properly, it is easy to be crushed, and the road is uneven and bumpy, so the carriage can only take the official road, and you have to pay customs duties along the way, right?" No, I'm almost two dollars cheaper, what do you want? ”

Fang Jinsheng was still in the clouds, but Liu Chaochao had already taken out the small gold abacus in his bag, if Fang Jinsheng did not have a perceptual barrier, he should have felt the obviously strong momentum on Liu Chaochao's body.

"Settle accounts with me, huh? Okay, let's do the math. ”

I saw Liu Chaochao put down the things in his hand, held the abacus in his left hand, and moved his right hand on the abacus beads at high speed.

"At this time, mulberries are indeed scarce and expensive, but this is not a rare thing in the south, at most 30 wen a pound in the peak season, transported to Luoyang, it will generally rise to 50 wen. You want customs duties, fares, and errands, okay, I'll give you another thirty wen increase. Eighty wen a pound of mulberries, a total of fifteen catties and six taels, the total price is one tael and two dollars and forty-eight wen, my master has money, and then I will make up a whole for you, count you one or two or three cents, may I ask - why do you charge me one or two or four dollars of silver? ”

When the words fell, Liu Chaochao threw the abacus in his hand up and down, and with a click, the abacus beads returned to their places and waited for them.

Fang Jinsheng and Wen Xin were dumbfounded, speechless at each other, and slapped together.

After listening to this, the peddler's throat was like a chicken feather stuck, and he couldn't say a complete sentence after being stuck for a long time, and finally revealed the face of a small man in the market: "It's just a penny of silver, are you there?" I don't think you're short of these money, you buy things with a lot of money, why are you still fighting with a poor common man for a penny? ”

It's a typical theory that rich people should talk about, Fang Jinsheng doesn't like to listen to it.

She stretched out her hand to stop Liu Chaochao, who was still arguing with him, and said, "We have money, that's our money, and it has nothing to do with you." We buy things lavishly, that's also a penny, a penny, a lot, I just throw it away and can't let people go, otherwise I feel uncomfortable when I sleep at night - okay, it's useless to talk more, you don't sell it for one or two or three dollars, if you don't sell it, we'll find the next home. ”

After speaking, she glanced at Liu Chaochao, and without waiting for the hawker to answer, she pulled Liu Chaochao and made a gesture to leave.

Within half a step, the peddler really couldn't stand it.

"If you have it, three dollars will be three dollars, how much do you want, I will give you as much as you want!"

Fang Jinsheng and Liu Chaochao listened, looked at each other and smiled, Fang Jinsheng turned his head and said, "Cheng, please help us send it again, even if the travel fee is in the neat amount, do you think it's worth it?" ”

The peddler scratched his ears and cheeks for a while, but did not say anything, but his hands were very honest and began to clean up.

Fang Jinsheng looked Liu Chaochao up and down, and teased: "Okay, Liu Chaochao, I can't see that you still have this hand." ”

Liu Chaochao smiled happily: "I told you that I can only count money, but I'm nothing, my father is amazing." And this person can't have a good head, seeing that we have money, I think we can even be deceived, and I don't look at who the person who buys his things is. ”

Fang Jinsheng smiled and nodded: "Yes, yes, by the way, where did your little golden abacus come from?" ”

Liu Chaochao was stunned for a moment, looked at her, his voice suddenly a little low, and said, "You gave it to the slave and the maid that year." ”

Fang Jinsheng smiled on his lips, but he was a little hesitant.

However, Liu Chaochao's tone then relaxed again: "Besides, this is not gold, it is brass, if it is really a gold abacus, how can I carry it with me every day." ”

Fang Jinsheng watched her put the little abacus back in her pocket, and exhaled in time, as if this could temporarily get rid of some uneasiness in her heart.

She glanced at the vendor and said, "One tael of silver to buy fifteen catties of mulberries, I don't think it's quite cheap." ”

Liu Chaochao paused and wondered, "Why do you think so?" ”

Fang Jinsheng: "I used to watch TV...... Oh no, reading the book, it seems that the cost of a meal is only ten taels of silver. ”

Liu Chaochao stared at him in surprise and said, "How rich is the person who writes books?" One meal is enough to catch up with my salary for more than half a year! ”

Fang Jinsheng picked the tip of his nose, smiled, and said, "It's just a misunderstanding, it's not worth mentioning." ”

After settling the account, the vendor followed Liu Chaochao back to the house first, sent a bunch of things back first, and several people agreed on a time for a stick of incense before meeting here.

In ancient times, among the places to eat, drink and have fun, Qinglou was always inevitable, and the word Qinglou also appeared frequently in major novels, films and televisions. Fang Jinsheng knew this well, so when she walked to the door of Qingfang Building, she paused and suddenly felt a little itchy.

But right now, she is still followed by a minor.

Wen Xin saw her looking at Qingfanglou and didn't leave, and said, "What's the matter, auntie, do you want to go in and have a look?" ”

Fang Jinsheng was hesitating, and was suddenly pulled back to his thoughts by his ambiguous question, and asked, "Can we go in?" ”

Wen Xin shook his head: "I don't know, but you can try." ”

Fang Jinsheng suddenly felt that this kid was not pure, he looked at him suspiciously, and said, "Do you know what kind of place this is?" ”

Wen Xin looked at the girl at the door of Qingfang Mansion and shook her head with some uncertainty.

The two of them were standing opposite the Qingfang Building, separated by the street, Fang Jinsheng pointed to the signboard, and educated the child with a smile of fifty steps and a hundred steps: "This is the Qingfang, minors are not allowed to enter, didn't your uncle teach you?" ”

After Wen Xin listened, his slightly confused eyes suddenly lit up like the sun: "'Ten years of Yangzhou dream, win the name of Qinglou Bo Xing', is this Qinglou?" ”

Fang Jinsheng suffered the loss of no culture, stuck for a moment, and said, "Yes." ”

When Wen Xin looked at Qingfang Lou again, there was a sudden hesitation in his eyes, and he said: "Wen Xin understands, this is the land of fireworks, although there is poetry and wine, it is easy to indulge, Aunt Jinsheng, I think it's better for us not to go in." ”

Fang Jinsheng secretly smacked his tongue: The benefits of reading.

"That'...... Then don't go, go for a walk, buy good food, and starve me to death. ”
