Chapter 35 Northern Xinjiang
While they were laughing, four carriages gradually came along the road, and there were about a dozen people following them.
Such a battle shocked a few people, but then they quickly became happy.
When the convoy reached the entrance of the village, it stopped, and Shopkeeper Zhou got out of the first carriage, followed by a smiling middle-aged man.
"Master Su, this is the palace boss, from the Northern Xinjiang Mansion, with his own caravan, this is the first time he has stayed with us!"
Shopkeeper Zhou first introduced the guest business boss to Su Mingjiang, and told Su Mingjiang very clearly that this is a big caravan, and if we can cooperate well, it will definitely not be stopped.
"Boss Gong, this is Master Su of the pickled vegetables in the braised meat shop, this is the Su family's unique secret recipe, you can't buy such delicious pickles elsewhere."
Shopkeeper Zhou introduced the two very enthusiastically, and he really wanted the business to continue to cooperate for a long time.
As sons, they are not surprised to know that the little girl of the Su family is a person who their son-in-law looks at differently, and they can't be lazy.
"In the Hanting Pavilion of the Lower Palace, I have seen Brother Su."
"Su Mingjiang has seen the palace boss, and the hard palace boss has made this trip!"
"Brother Su is polite, this is also a kind of fate, we should have this cooperation."
Gong Hanting smiled very happily, thanked Su Mingjiang for the invitation, and chatted while walking.
Su Mingjiang looked at Shopkeeper Zhou, and saw that he was also inexplicable, and asked suspiciously, "Why did Boss Gong say this?" Could it be that there is no other story in it? ”
Gong Hanting smiled heartily, and said directly without concealing it, "Our caravan went to Jiangnan this time, and we will rest in Anqing Mansion when we come back." Some of the caravans went out into the streets and bought some pickles. The taste is also amazing, and everyone loves it.
You also know that the land in the north is barren and desolate, and most of the food is brought from other places. Although everyone has some kinds of vegetables, there are only a few types.
You get tired of eating all year round, and if you don't have these delicious pickles, how can they be fresh dishes, right? ”
Shopkeeper Zhou complimented, "This is also the palace boss's keen mind, even if ordinary people find this pickle, they only eat it fresh, where can the palace boss think of shipping it to northern Xinjiang to sell?" Of course, this is also the blessing of everyone in the Northern Xinjiang Mansion! ”
"Haha, Shopkeeper Zhou praised it falsely, he has been running business all year round, and his vision is naturally better than others." Gong Hanting is very praised by the shopkeeper of Zhou, this is a very confident person!
Soon the carriage came to the door of the Su family, the carriage was adjusted, and it began to be loaded, fortunately, Gong Hanting brought enough people, more than a dozen people had pulled the cart, some carried the cylinder, and some loaded the cart, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the five large cylinders were loaded with three or two carriages.
Gong Hanting handed over the silver to Su Mingjiang and said goodbye with a smile, "Brother Su, let's talk about it, I will sell it first when I go back this time, if the effect is not bad, I will ask someone to send a letter to the braised meat shop in Anqing Mansion, and you will prepare pickles for me in a month." Luckily? ”
If there is no accident all the way from Beijiang Mansion to Anqing Mansion, it will take about 20 days, and give him a month to prepare, which is enough.
"Naturally, there is no problem, our pickles and braised meat shops are together. If you need it, let people believe it, rest assured! ”
Shopkeeper Zhou nodded spontaneously, "Boss Gong can rest assured, he will not delay business." ”
Seeing the three carriages of Gong Hanting leave, Su Mingjiang said to Shopkeeper Zhou with some regret, "This palace boss is also a cool person, so I can't wait to stay for a light meal, it's really ...... However, Shopkeeper Zhou can't shirk it! If it weren't for Shopkeeper Zhou's busy work this time, I wouldn't have been able to do this business, wouldn't I? You must give me a chance to thank me, and maybe I will have to bother Shopkeeper Zhou in the future! ”
Shopkeeper Zhou couldn't refuse, so he stayed, and his eyes turned around Su Tang a few times, which made Su Tang a little inexplicable, and his eyes were a little wrong.
"Uncle Zhou, why do you always look at me?"
In the kitchen, Shen Yunniang was making lunch with the help of Guo's help, and Su Mingjiang asked the third aunt to come over to help and greet lunch together.
When Su Mingjiang heard his daughter's question, he was stunned, and looked at the shopkeeper Zhou in a daze, he naturally didn't think much about it, but he was also curious about why he did this?
Shopkeeper Zhou smiled unnaturally, "I also have such a big daughter, it's rare to look at." ”
I didn't expect this little girl to be so keen, he just looked at it a few more times and was noticed by her.
is worthy of being the person who can make Childe look at him differently, but fortunately, he was prepared and did not panic.
"Hehe, that's the truth, my daughter is the most sensible, and she often helps with housework at home, and she helps wash vegetables or something when she is too busy."
Su Mingjiang was proud when he talked about his children, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with praising his daughter so much.
Su Tang was a little embarrassed by his praise, is it really her who is such a sensible child?
Forget it, let's take my brother to the side to play.
Su Tang took Su Qi to the study and drew a picture of the spring scene with the paint he had prepared under the side eyes of the little guy.
"Flowers, butterflies, sisters, and fruits also have to be painted."
The dormitory was ready to move, but he didn't get started to grab the paintbrush.
"Okay, my sister will prepare it for you and let you draw."
Su Tang first put on a bib for him, so as not to get the paint on his clothes later.
Carry him to his little chair, lay out his drawing paper, set up the paint box, and finally give him the paintbrush, and let him paint on his own.
Seeing him obediently painting with paint, Su Tang didn't bother him, so he took a book and read it next to him.
This is also a travelogue, which was also sent by Mu Lingchuan, and it is written about the scenery of northern Xinjiang.
Looking at the scene described in it, it is similar to the northern Xinjiang in her previous life, with a long semi-arid, very little precipitation, and barren land, which is not suitable for growing food.
Further north is the border of the Great Qin State, bordering the Menghu people, which is a large grassland.
The Menghu people are nomadic people, the people are fierce, good at riding and shooting, and in case of drought, they will attack the northern frontier defense and rush into the villages and towns to loot.
The palace boss who came to pull pickles this time is from Beijiang Prefecture, and the travelogue also said that there are still a few days away from the Beijiang Prefecture Li Frontier Zone, so the general Menghu people can't enter the inner area.
However, Su Tang knew that in the memory of the original owner, ten years later, under the man-made disasters in the world, the Menghu people defeated the border guards, broke through the police line, and entered the northern region of the Great Qin Kingdom.
Not only the Northern Xinjiang Mansion, but also the Xiyang Mansion and Anqing Mansion, which are connected to the Northern Xinjiang Mansion, were also affected.
And the original owner died of starvation in that year due to natural disasters, man-made disasters, and chaos.
Therefore, when he has time, Su Tang often reads some books about Northern Xinjiang and about the Menghu people, wanting to have a deeper understanding.
She certainly didn't want the disaster to happen again ten years later!
