Chapter 124: Check it out for yourself
Until he rode out of Zhangjiagou, Tang Jun was still like in a dream.
Su Yingxue galloped on horseback, and soon arrived at the barren field that she had just passed. There was a village not far away, it was the village that the old man who drove the donkey cart said, and I faintly saw a group of people sitting at the entrance of the village, not knowing what they were doing.
Su Yingxue turned around and walked towards the village.
Tang Jun and Mr. Guo hurriedly followed.
Under a big locust tree at the entrance of the village, there were twenty people sitting around, who were sitting there chattering, hearing the sound of horses' hooves, and they were startled, and thought that Duo Yiren had come to commit it again. But now is not the time. One by one, they looked at the smoke and dust along the way in horror.
When I got closer, I found out that it was a young Han boy. The little boy speaks so nicely.
What the? Mow? Ten catties of grass is a copper plate? Oh, that's a great thing. People rushed home to get their tools, and rushed to the deserted land.
Su Yingxue pulled the young man who thought he was younger and said, "Who in the village has a car?" ”
The young man said, "Yes, there is." Then he pointed the direction to Su Yingxue.
Su Yingxue took out five copper plates and said, "You don't have to mow the grass, this is your salary, go to the village and buy three carts and install them on the back of these three horses." Then you come and drive one of these cars into town with me. ’
The young man went happily. It didn't take long for him to come back, and he said, "Okay, okay." "There were several other people behind him, each pulling a half-new cart.
Su Yingxue quickly negotiated the price and paid. Those villagers are also honest people, and the price given by Su Yingxue is enough for them to make two new cars again, even if they help pull the car.
The carriage had already been loaded, and Su Yingxue looked at the distance, where more than a dozen people were waving farm tools and mowing the grass vigorously.
When the wagon arrived in the field, the grass had been cut a lot. Seeing that there were not many cars, Su Yingxue stopped. The men were paid, and a young offspring was found to give him a few pennies to drive another carriage. Su Yingxue drove the carriage at the front, carrying Mr. Guo, in the direction of Bazhou.
Mr. Guo was already a little numb at this time. Su Yingxue was in no hurry to show people flowers at first, but at this time, she was in a hurry to do things. Even, is it good that the salary given has been raised? It's just that at the moment, he can't say anything.
Just after three o'clock in the afternoon, Su Yingxue and his party had already sat in the tea shed in the morning again.
The owner of the tea shed happily served the tea, but when he saw that it was Su Yingxue, he looked at the cars behind them, and grabbed his hand with some confusion. was about to leave, but was called by Su Yingxue.
"The boss has a good business, how many merchants are there today?"
The owner of the tea shed waved his hand and smiled: "Little boy, this is making fun of Lao Er." In the morning, there was just such a trip to the merchants, and you were also present at that time. And then, no, you've brought a few more of them. Where is there so much business to do? ”
Su Yingxue nodded with a smile, joked a few words, and then stopped talking. I finally breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, anyway, the caravan in those mouths in the morning had not yet passed.
When the tea boss went to the third time for tea, another carriage finally appeared outside the city gate. The carriage was difficult, a few horses were puffing and puffing, and the pallet cart behind was stacked with tall cargo boxes. Whether it was a driver or a horse, they all looked very tired.
When the convoy drove to the tea shed, the horses pulling the goods suddenly rushed to Su Yingxue's car without the control of the driver. I took a big bite around the fresh grass and chewed it. The freshly cut grass was juicy, and the tired horses were about to neigh in satisfaction, but they were already forcibly dragged aside by the charioteers. But the horses were obviously very tired and hungry, and they couldn't pull them at all, and the horses were pulling goods behind them, and it was even more difficult to drive them. For a while, there was a commotion in front of the tea shed. The neighing of horses, the roar of coachmen, the beating of whips, fill people's eardrums. A man in an orange robe and a blue hat got down from a carriage behind him in a panic, and looked at the straw on the carriages that had been scrambled by the horses.
Su Yingxue stood up at the right time and walked over to the noise here. frowned and watched the chaos of people and horses churning.
The man in orange clothes immediately noticed Su Yingxue and hurriedly walked over.
Shi bowed and said, "This son, may I ask, are these yours?" He pointed to the already cluttered car behind him.
Su Yingxue nodded and asked, "Those carriages, are they yours?" His eyes were full of distress, and it seemed that he was sorry for these fresh grasses.
The man breathed a sigh of relief, and apologized again: "It's my fault that we didn't have time to restrain these horses, and I ask my son to forgive me." ”
Su Yingxue shook her head and sighed: "This, naturally, can be understood, it's just-"
The man hurriedly said, "Oh, if you can do this, I will buy all the grass." The price is easy to say. All you have to do is make a bid. ”
When Su Yingxue saw him say this, she said, "Okay then." It's all going to be sold anyway, and it's the same for everyone. My batch of grass is more than 900 catties in total, give me five taels of silver. ”
The man was slightly surprised, and looked back, the amount of these three carts of grass is indeed a lot, and the price is naturally fair.
As they spoke, the horses were already fed, and one by one they were snorting leisurely. And on the ground, there is too much grass scattered around. It's just that I can't say what I want people to reload the grass into the car and sell it.
He looked at his cars, the goods were a little crooked because of the chaos just now, and the drivers were laboriously putting them back together.
Car, carriage?
He had a flash of inspiration, didn't he just lack a carriage?
He hurriedly turned to look at Su Yingxue, and said with a smile: "Okay, good, five taels of silver is indeed very fair." Fang Cai's matter is really too much, if Childe is willing to appreciate his face, how about I invite Childe to have a cup of tea? ”
When Su Yingxue turned around, she saw the light in his eyes. What else is not understood at this time. It seems that you don't have to figure it out by yourself, people are already going to make it up on their own. When the opportunity comes, of course you have to seize it.
"Absolutely."
From beginning to end, Tang Jun and Mr. Guo followed Su Yingxue's instructions, and they had been sitting in the tea shed watching everything that happened in front of them. Until all three carriages were sold, Su Yingxue borrowed money and sent away Boss Chen. The two of them came to their senses.
When Tang Jun reacted, he suddenly jumped out of his seat and ran towards Su Yingxue.
"How much silver was sold? How much silver was sold? ”
Su Yingxue threw the purse in her hand into his arms and sat back in her place in style. He picked up his teacup and took a sip of water.
"Look it up for yourself."
Wonderful!
