"Yuan Hao, you remember, you must not tell anyone about this, only our sisters and brothers can know, is it white?" Yuan Qiu solemnly advised.

Yuan Hao nodded: "Sister, I remember." ”

The siblings hurried to the river at the east end of the village to carry water, and did not stop until the tank was full, and after a while, the full tank of clean water became sewage.

It was enough to wash off a tank of water, and the dirt on the two siblings could be washed away.

Just as he was thinking about carrying another tank of water, Uncle Zhang shouted outside.

Yuan Qiu could only give up the idea of carrying water, and Yuan Hao carried Bi Sanxi out of the door, and saw Uncle Zhang pulling an ox cart, with a few large baskets on the cart, a large basket of fresh fish, and a few baskets of dried fish, ready to be pulled to the town market to sell.

Yuan Qiu glanced at the basket of fresh fish, frowned, and said, "Uncle Zhang, why don't you use wooden barrels to fill the fish?" ”

Uncle Zhang was not yin, so he asked in a stunned voice: "Why do you use wooden barrels to fill fish?" Don't the fish have to be in a fish basket? ”

Yuan Qiu shook his head: "Uncle Zhang, these fish of yours are raised in a broken tank at home, they have never left the water, and they are naturally fresh, but now as soon as they leave the water, don't they have to die?" Think about it, if this fish is dead, can it still be sold for a good price? In the past, you used to carry it to the market, but now that you have used an ox cart, why don't you use a wooden bucket to store the fish in the water, and the fish can still be sold alive? ”

When Uncle Zhang heard this, where was there anything that was not white, he patted his head and smiled: "That's really the case, I'm really confused, thanks to Yuanqiu for reminding me, come on, I'll go get barrel fish." ”

Uncle Zhang immediately drove the ox cart home, quickly loaded the fish in the basket into the wooden barrel, and then filled it with water, watching the fish that were supposed to come back to life, grinning happily.

He has sold fish countless times, so he naturally knows that the price of live fish and dead fish are two different things, and now it is thanks to Yuan Qiu's words that he woke him up.

The ox cart is just a few wooden planks put together, plus two wooden wheels to make of, not big, can sit people, can also pull some goods, put on the barrel and two back baskets, it occupies almost all the seats, fortunately the sister and brother are extremely thin, squeezed down can also sit down.

Uncle Zhang is a rough man, and when he saw that the faces of his sister and brother seemed to have changed a little, he didn't care too much, the bitter children in the countryside, the face plate is not important, the important thing is to have strength and be able to work.

The ox cart pulled the three people into the city, Xiaoyuan Town is dozens of miles away from Xipo Village, fortunately they got up early and set off early, so they did not miss the morning market.

Uncle Zhang pulled the ox cart straight to the vegetable market in the town, unloaded a bucket of live fish from the car, and put two baskets of dried fish on the cart, only to find that the back basket of the sister and brother was not filled with vegetables, but with a kind of green grass that had never been seen before, and wondered: "What are you doing with two baskets of grass on your back?" Why don't you bring food? ”

Yuan Qiu smiled mysteriously and said to Uncle Zhang, "Uncle, this is the dish we want to sell." ”

Uncle Zhang has lived all his life, and he has never seen this kind of dish, it looks like grass, but since Yuanqiu said that it is a vegetable, it must be a vegetable.

"Uncle, have you ever heard of medicinal diet?" Yuan Qiu asked.

Uncle Zhang nodded: "I've heard that the shopkeeper of Jufu Lou often buys vegetables here, and once I heard him say that it seems that Jufu Lou has medicinal food, and the rich people in the town like to eat it, saying that eating it is good for the body." ”

As soon as Yuan Qiu heard it, he knew that he would not come in vain today, so he asked the way to Jufu Building, and agreed with Uncle Zhang on the time to go back, so he pulled Yuan Hao out of the market and went straight to Jufu Building.
