The Pavilion Volume 1: Star Continent Chapter 12: Murong Baye
Chapter 12
Chen took Gu Yuan and Su Wan to find the owner of the winery, and after hearing that Gu Yuan wanted to buy all the unsold wine in the winery, the boss was so shocked that his pupils dilated.
"Gu Jia Shiro, are you sure you want all these wines?"
Gu Yuan subconsciously glanced at Su Wan from the corner of his eye, turned his head to look at the boss and said, "Sure, ask the boss to help calculate the price." ”
"Gu Jia Shiro, since you are sure that you want these wines, then I won't say anything. It's just that Sanniu has worked with me for so many years after all, and I can't pit you.
The quality of my wine is not good, even if you have the identity of Xiucai and know the owner of Xinghualou, but our wine can't be sold in Xinghualou!
Those dignitaries and nobles are all talking about it, saying that this wine has a sour taste, hey......"
Gu Yuan responded to the boss's words while calculating the weight of the wine with the boss.
After the amount was finished, the boss said: "There are still five hundred and eighteen buckets left in this wine, and I will give you a little cheaper, ten cents per bucket, a total of five thousand one hundred and eighty cents."
I won't accept your change of 180 yuan, just give 5,000 yuan. ”
Chen weighed five taels of broken silver that he had exchanged with the owner of the pharmacy and gave it to the shopkeeper of the winery.
Gu Sanniu borrowed a cart from the owner of the winery to pull wine.
Taking advantage of the fact that the owner of the wine shop, Gu Sanniu, and Gu Yuan were moving the wine jar on the board cart together, Chen took Su Wan to the grain store to buy grain.
Compared with the sluggish business of other stores, the grain store business is very hot.
There was a long queue outside the store.
Su Wan lined up with Chen, and after Chen looked inside the store on tiptoe, he said to Su Wan: "Wanya, my mother just saw it, there is still a lot of food in the store, we should be able to buy it today." ”
The family has long been out of food, and has been living on wild vegetables and potatoes, but now the wild vegetables and tree bark are almost gone, and if they can't buy food, the family can only go hungry with their belts.
Chen nervously looked at the remaining amount of food in the store as he slowly moved forward with the team.
Su Wan also became nervous, she still had food in the space, but she had to have the same kind of food in the Gu family, so she could secretly take it out, she couldn't have the Gu family at all, she conjured it out of thin air, so I don't know if she would be regarded as a fairy or a monster!
Finally, it was Chen's turn and Su Wan's turn, and Chen's voice was kind and asked the guy, "Little brother, what is the price of grain now?"
"One tael of silver for new rice, one tael of silver for white flour, 300 wen for one bucket of old rice, 50 wen for one bucket of rice bran, 50 wen for one bucket of wheat bran, how much do you want to buy, hurry up, the people behind are still waiting!"
Chen pinched her purse and looked at Chen Mi with some confusion, she didn't dare to look at the new rice and white noodles, and finally said: "Little brother, weigh me 20 buckets of rice bran and 20 buckets of wheat bran." ”
"Little brother, let's call 50 buckets of old rice, 10 buckets of new rice, and 5 buckets of white noodles. Su Wan hurriedly added.
When she came out with the Chen family just now, Gu Yuan quietly instructed her to buy more food if she could.
The man stopped his hand with rice bran and wheat bran, looked at Chen Shi and then at Su Wan and asked, "Is the rice noodles called or not?"
Although Chen's flesh hurt when he thought about spending so much money to go out, Su Wan opened her mouth, and she couldn't take it back again, gritted her teeth and said, "Say, say!"
After finishing speaking, she looked at Su Wan, "Wanya, how can we get it back if we buy so much food?"
Su Wan responded with a smile: "Mother, you don't have to worry, I told Ah Yuan that after the cart is loaded with wine at the winery, I will come here to pull grain." ”
Chen relieved himself and nodded.
She looked at the bags of grain packed up, although there was some pain in the money spent, but thinking that she didn't buy the food with the money last time, this time it was also lucky to be able to buy so much food, and her heart also settled down.
In this year of famine, in the end, it is necessary to have food at home so that there is no panic in the heart.
After the guy weighed the grain, Gu Sanniu and Gu Yuan came over with a cart, and the cart was already loaded with five large clay jars hugged by two people, as well as a few small jars.
After Chen settled the account at the grain store, the man helped Gu Yuan and Gu Sanniu to carry the grain onto the cart.
The bags used to hold grain in the grain shop were too eye-catching, and there was nothing in the city, so they pushed out of the city, and those hungry homeless people were afraid that they would grab it.
Gu Yuan opened one of the jars, the inside of the jar was empty, he mixed the old rice and the new rice and poured it into it, and stuffed the five buckets of white flour into the jar, leaving only the bags of wheat bran and rice bran on the ox cart.
Only then did he pull with Gu Sanniu, and push the cart to Gujia Village.
When the family arrived at the entrance of Gujia Village, it was almost noon, because it had a good rain last night, and everyone was busy in the fields at this time.
The villagers who were busy working in the fields saw them pushing carts and loading so many large jars back, and asked curiously: "Dayong's family, your family has made a fortune, and you hired an ox cart to pull such jars back?"
Chen Shi followed the words that Su Wan had already told her on the road, sighed with a bitter face and said, "Hey, Qingshan family, don't say it, what kind of wealth are you making?"
It's not a good year, and the winery that Sanniu helped can't go on, and he didn't even pay Sanniu a salary, so he took the wine to pay for three years.
What do you think we're doing with this wine?
I can't sell it, I can't drink it, I can't get enough to drink, and if I drink too much, I will delay things.
Eh, Qingshan's family, I remember that your Qingshan family is a good mouthful, why don't you sell some money back for your family, and I'll give you a cheaper price, twenty dollars a bucket?"
The woman who teased the Chen family just now immediately laughed and said: "No, no, this is two years earlier, I will also sell some, but now in this year, I have no food to eat, where is the spare money to drink that yellow soup?"
Chen sighed again and echoed: "Yes, we don't have anything to eat, what can we do if we have so much yellow soup at home?"
When Gu Yuan and Gu Sanniu pushed the cart a little farther, the Qingshan daughter-in-law in the field muttered in a low voice: "This Dayong family is also unlucky enough, a good show was beaten into a living dead, and if you wake up, you can't study, forget it, these three cows have also helped people for three years in vain, what a sin!"
After speaking, she shook her head with emotion.
Gu Sanniu and Gu Yuan pushed the cart and continued to walk towards the door of Gu's house, and halfway through, a figure suddenly popped out next to them, and they fell directly in front of the cart, holding their legs and screaming "ouch, ouch".
Su Wan fixed her eyes and saw that this was not Yang Hu who came to their house to make trouble that day?
She didn't expect that Yang Hu was driven away that day, but he didn't give up, and he came to touch porcelain again today?
