Chapter 781: The road ahead is uncertain
"Yes, yes, yes, I just want a pot that can be baked on the fire!"
"Oh...... The guest officer is going to go far away, in order to facilitate carrying, right? "The man understands it very well, and he doesn't think there is anything strange about the emperor's request.
"Yes, yes, yes!" The emperor nodded again and again, expressing his gratitude for his understanding.
The guy smiled: "I don't listen to the accent of the guest officer, it doesn't seem to be like a local, it seems that I can't stand the ice and snow of our snow country, and I want to eat some hot food on the road to warm my body." ”
The emperor nodded and said, "Exactly!" ”
No way, they really can't learn the intonation of the Snow Countryers...... It's easy to learn, but it's also troublesome to memorize every word. And in fact, if they pretend to be in the Linlang Pavilion to buy, but in the Red Blood City, there is no need to hide anything. They have successfully entered the city, and these small merchants will not arrest them to the government. Therefore, they talked casually when they bought things along the way, and they did not deliberately pretend to be Snow Countryers.
"I wonder when the guest officer will leave? If you are not in a hurry, you can let the backyard make a small pot for the guest officer, but this is the price...... Naturally, it's a bit higher. "Dude.
Seeing that they were still thinking about eating hot soup and food, they must be rich people if they were so elegant.
"If I can get it tonight, I'll buy it. If you can't take it tonight, you have to give up. After all, we have to leave tomorrow, so it's not good to delay the trip. "The emperor said.
"I can get it tonight, but it's just the price...... the guy dialed it on the abacus and said, "I have five taels of silver." ”
"What? Five taels of silver and a small pot? You're too good at fooling people, aren't you? Anyway, we don't have to buy it, you don't need to take advantage of the fire! "Early summer road.
The emperor also said: "I just asked the big one, and you only said one or two silver." Why is it that the small one costs five taels? Even if it's freshly made, it's not much. ”
"Guest officer, you nobles, how do you know the exquisiteness of craftsmanship? The smaller it is, the harder it is to do it. And we have to do it before tonight, and the rest of the work has to be postponed, and if there are other guest officers who are picky, we can't stand to give people some compensation. These five taels of silver are the most reasonable price for us. ”
"Four taels." The emperor said.
"Yo...... Guest, you are rich and expensive, do you still care about these two pieces of silver? ”
"Of course," said the emperor, "no one's silver is blown by the wind." If you don't sell it, we'll buy it elsewhere. ”
After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave. Although he really didn't care about the two pieces of silver, it couldn't make people think that they were rich. If there are any bad people in this city who target them and cause some unnecessary trouble, it will not be easy to do.
"Okay...... the guy hurriedly stopped the emperor and said, "Four taels will be four taels!" I'll just talk to the shopkeeper when I get back. Since the business has been negotiated, it is not good for the shopkeeper not to do it. ”
The emperor happily took out two taels of silver and gave it to the man, and said, "This is a deposit, and when the remaining half is taken from the pot, if there is nothing wrong with the things, I will pay you again." ”
When the man saw him pay the money so happily, he thought he was going to pay it all, but he didn't want to pay only half of it. But just after exchanging a few words, I also know that although this guest officer is exquisite, he is not a foolish uncle. I'm afraid that if I don't agree with his approach, this deal will not be done. So I had no choice but to accept his deposit and said, "Okay! I'm a guest officer, you look dignified, look comfortable, and this is what I sold to you. Otherwise, we would never have had a rule in the store to give half of the silver first. ”
"The rules are set by people, and there will be them in the future", the emperor said, "We will come to fetch the pot at sunset." But it must be as big as a small soup pot, not too big. ”
"Knowing the guest officer, don't worry."
Out of the blacksmith shop, the three of them stood in the market in the cold wind, not knowing where to go next. Originally, there were quite a few things that they needed to buy, but with Jun Ziye here, it seemed that they didn't have to worry about anything. It is estimated that Jun Ziye will take them out on this trip, but anything useful can be bought.
"Let's go buy some food," said the emperor, "and buy something that is convenient to take with us and eat that has been cooked." ”
All they can do is these trivial things. Rong Yunxi and Chu Xia nodded in agreement at the same time. Thinking of having something hot to eat on the road, they suddenly felt that the emperor's decision to buy the pot was right!
The three of them made some purchases at the bazaar, and there was nothing important to buy, but they didn't have time to go back to the inn for lunch, and after a while, they returned to the inn with a large bag. And those few people who went to do serious things have already come back.
……
Early the next morning, the emperor stuffed their pots, silver chopsticks, teapots and other things on the carriage, and then stuffed Rong Yunxi into it, and instructed her: "You must take care of these things, especially the white rhinoceros chopsticks." ”
"Got it...... You're not in the carriage? "In this cold and snowy world, can't the emperor want to ride a horse?
It snowed the day before yesterday and yesterday, so early this morning, although the sky was clear, it was even colder than the previous two days.
"Of course it's riding a horse", the emperor said, "It's not a woman, how can you sit in the carriage?" ”
Rong Yunxi snorted lightly and said, "You take it easy and do what you can!" ”
However, the emperor had already ignored her, obviously thinking that her instructions were too embarrassing, so he hurriedly lowered the curtain and turned away.
Rong Yunxi smiled and took out the pair of white rhino chopsticks that the emperor regarded as a treasure, thinking that this thing can really ward off poison? It doesn't look as useful as those pairs of silver chopsticks.
This is the emperor yesterday from a merchant to buy, fifty taels of silver a pair, and it is mysterious, what a few years to get this pair, if he is not in urgent need of silver, he will never be able to buy it at this price. This kind of fooling people, the emperor really believes it? He gave fifty taels of silver on the spot, and he didn't even bargain. When I returned to the inn in the evening, I boiled it three or four times in boiling water, and it seemed that I really planned to use it for dinner.
Although Rong Yunxi doesn't think it's a good thing, since the emperor is a baby, she still has to keep it for the emperor, and she should coax the child to play.
"Miss, the slave maid really heard from the family in our Rong Mansion before that this white rhino poison chopstick, and they all said that it was very useful. But it seems that this thing is really only available in Snow Country, and it is very difficult to find. "Early summer road.
"If it's really good, but do you think the emperor's this may be true? There are no things in the Linlang Pavilion, how can the emperor buy them on the side of the road? So easy? Fool him as a fool! The merchant doesn't know how to be happy when he goes home, I'm afraid he can wake up laughing when he dreams! Rong Yunxi said.
"But the emperor recognized it after just one glance, and the slave felt that it might not be fake." Early Summer is serious.
Rong Yunxi glanced at the chopsticks in his hand and said, "Whatever?" Help him put it away. After speaking, he carefully pulled a piece of clean cloth, wrapped the chopsticks, and put them in the baggage.
It was cold outside, but because they bought enough silver dust charcoal yesterday, the carriage was as warm as spring. Coupled with the clear sky today, Rong Yunxi was a little idle, and lifted the curtain to look at the scenery outside......
By this time they had already left the city, and as far as the eye could see, they were covered in silver. Although the cold breeze is blowing, watching the bright sunlight shine on the white snow makes you feel a little warm.
"The daylight in the snow country seems to be brighter than ours in the country of wind......," Rong Yunxi turned back to the early summer who was lying on the side couch eating dried fruits.
"Really?" In early summer, I was not interested in facing the cold wind to see the colorless white, but when I heard Rong Yunxi say this, it was naturally not easy to pour the interest of the young lady, so I sat down next to Rong Yunxi and looked out.
"Yo ......" looked at it, and couldn't help but sigh! She'd never seen anything like it!
"Miss, Snow Country is so beautiful! At first glance, I really thought we were walking on the clouds in a fairyland! I feel closer to the sun, as if I can reach out and catch the sun! "Early summer road.
"Yes, it's so beautiful here...... Rong Yunxi looked at the world covered in silver outside, and couldn't help but lose his mind. Her mother has lived in such a beautiful scenery since she was a child. She seemed to see a naughty girl with a small wooden sword, chasing and playing with her friends in the snow......
Mother must have been a very cheerful and bold person, unlike her.
Therefore, my mother can pass through the Fulong Snow Mountain, make a private life with my father without hesitation, and have the courage to return to my homeland after the family is ruined. But she wished her mother had never returned.
If the mother is not such a love-hate character, if the mother is ruthless to abandon her and her father after she is sober, will she come back to them? If so, my father would have chosen to live in seclusion for my mother's sake, but if so, where would she be today?
Everything has its own certainty in the dark. In her bones and blood, she still inherits her father's character more.
Her eyes fell on the figures of the horses not far ahead, and she could recognize his back at a glance.
"Pheasant!" Suddenly, hearing his exclamation, he drew his sword from Lei Zhu's waist and rode after him.
In the ice and snow, he rode his horse and galloped so chic...... It was as if in the back garden of the Richen Palace, he picked a flower with the tip of his sword and flew into his hand. That's what he is.
I saw the emperor fly out with a sword, and then he stopped his horse, turned over and dismounted and ran forward. When I came back, I was already carrying a pheasant that had been very big in my hand.
"The master is amazing! You can shoot pheasants with such a sword! Chasing Wind laughed.
"What kind of skill is this?" The emperor smiled, "If you make a move, I'm afraid you won't have to chase for so long, and you will be hit with a sword." ”
As he spoke, he threw his prey and sword to Lei Zhu, and said, "Clean up, we have fresh meat to eat at night!" ”
I was happy in my heart, and I couldn't help but want to share it with Rong Yunxi, and when I looked back, before I could call her, I saw that she was lifting the curtain and looking this way.
The emperor rode back to the carriage, and when he arrived in front of Derong Yunxi, he stopped his horse, shook his head, and said, "How is it?" Am I awesome? ”
"Didn't you say it yourself, if someone else made a move, you wouldn't have been able to catch up for so long." Rong Yunxi said with a smile.
"I'm humble...... Besides, don't you watch? I want you to appreciate my galloping style more......" The emperor said with a smile.
When Rong Yunxi saw him talking, he spit out a ball of haze in his mouth, and his cheeks were also red from the cold, so he was distressed, and said, "Okay, okay, you have fun and fun, come in and talk to me for a while!" ”
"What did you say?" Jingyu drove the carriage forward slowly, and the emperor turned the horse around, accompanied Rong Yunxi forward, and said, "I can accompany you outside." As long as you want me to accompany me, no matter where I am, there is always a way. ”
