Chapter 54: The Coming Crisis (Asking for Support, Collection, Tickets)
Ji Yunxiao's master and servant had breakfast, rested for a while, and the boatman sent a food box.
"Childe, little brother, this is a pastry for you."
Ji Yunxiao nodded his head and made a gesture.
The boy lifted the food box and said to the boatman, "Uncle, goodbye." ”
"You're welcome to come and play again, the boat is docked, please come ashore." Uncle is a little nostalgic, this time I have gained a lot.
"Thank you"
The boy put the food box on the wagon, led the cart to the plywood, and waited on the shore.
Ji Yunxiao walked across the deck from the ship, went to the shore, and got into the carriage.
Xiu'er was pulled by her mother to hide in the cabin, secretly looking at Ji Yunxiao, this handsome and dashing man went ashore and left.
Reluctantly, the girl's heart hurt, and she secretly wiped her tears, and her handkerchief was wet.
When will we see you again?
The slave is lovesick, but the king knows nothing.
Her mother patted her on the back to show comfort, it's not something that her daughter can think about, so let's forget it.
I think your son saw this man and cried for the man, maybe he had never seen such an excellent man, and he was confused by his demeanor.
Ji Yunxiao sat in the carriage, it was already past the hour, and the winter sun shone on the carriage and felt warm.
The carriage ran on the road to Dajiang Town, and the speed of the carriage began to slow down.
"Childe, there are some specialties here, can you buy some and go back?"
"Oh, what's the specialty?"
"It's a food pickled from the fruits of the mountains, maybe the housewife will like it, and the eldest lady will like it too."
"Oh, let's go down and buy some!"
"Good drop."
The boy happily got out of the carriage and went to the shop that sold the souvenirs in the town, when he came to the shop.
The owner of the shop had a good eye, and the sound of the carriage stopped at the door, and he had already heard the voice, and when he saw such a luxurious carriage, he knew that business was going to come to the door.
"Little brother, what to buy? I have food here, you can taste it, you will like it more and more. ”
"Oh, can you taste it? Great! ”
The kid is just a young man who likes to eat at his age, but his identity is limited, and many delicacies cannot be tasted.
At this moment, helping the young master buy something, he didn't think that he could eat it, he could try it, taste the taste, and his heart was happy.
Taste a little bit of everything, sweet and sour food, eat and eat more and more like it, I feel like everything.
There are dried mangoes, dried sweets, plum products, foods made from sour fruits, bananas can also be made into crunchy banana chips, and even sweet potatoes can be made into dried sweet potatoes.
The peel of those oranges can also be made into tangerine peel, wow, it's delicious.
The kid was addicted to eating, and he felt that his teeth were a little sore, so he asked the store to weigh a pound.
When the shopkeeper saw this tasting at this time, he didn't know how much he bought, and if he just bought a little, not only would he not make money, but he would lose money.
At this moment, he heard that there were dozens of varieties of this food in his shop, and the pickled things in the mountains were relatively cheap.
The peasants can't sell the fruits, so they can only pickle the food and sell it, and they can also be stored for a longer time.
These have become the root of this place, of life.
If you sell dried fruits, you can have money to buy rice to eat.
The store weighs one catty, and the dried fruits are very light, packed one by one, and dozens of catties have to be packed in sacks.
"Wow, that's a lot."
The kid was a little surprised, the boy only asked him to buy a little, did he want to carry a sack back?
"Little brother, five taels of silver."
The boy took out a piece of silver for five taels from his pocket.
"Shop, can you deliver it?"
The kid thinks that if you buy so much, you can have it delivered to your door, right?
"Little brother, where does the house live?"
"Well, why are you asking, shopkeeper? I'm just asking you to carry this big bag to the wagon outside. ”
The boys are now proficient in learning, and after a single death, they can't reveal their identities.
"Oh, I see, the uncle misunderstood, and the uncle came to move."
The shopkeeper is a tall and strong man, and if he doesn't hire a small worker, he does a lot of the moving work himself.
Buying and selling goods must be done.
Ji Yunxiao sat in the carriage, he waited for so long, he was in the window of the carriage, watching the shops in the town outside, drinking tea.
The kind of tea he drinks today is the tea made by the farmers in the tea village planted in the mountains of the river yesterday.
It is a little different from the tea bought and drunk outside, this kind of tea is sweet and fragrant, which makes the throat very comfortable, there are several kinds of tea, and there will be flower tea for women to drink.
He bought some of everything and prepared to take it back to his family to drink, and if his father thought it was good, the business would still be done.
His trip was not in vain.
The kid asked the store to put the food in a hemp bag and put it in the back of the wagon to store it.
"Thanks, uncle."
"Little brother, if you taste it and think it's good, come and buy it!"
"Hmm"
The kid felt that he did not have this right, and promised others, nodding vaguely.
The shopkeeper watched the carriage go away, thinking that he could make a fortune by coming to such a big business a few times a day.
It's a pity that this place is relatively remote, far away from the county seat, and the farmers' special products can't be sold or sold, which makes the farmers who grow fruits worry about their heads.
"Childe, are we going back to the county now?"
While the kid was catching the car, he spoke to the boy who was sitting in the back.
"You can get the car now, from the fork in the road ahead, to another town."
Ji Yunxiao felt that this time, he had to walk around, enjoy the scenery everywhere, and maybe get unexpected resources.
"Childe, you still have to go!" The kid doesn't know what the company thinks, it's full of deep mountains, big forests, and small rural areas.
Childe, why do you like to walk in such a place? He was also from a peasant background, not a peasant place.
I can't figure it out, why did Childe come here?
It's coming to the end of the year again, and when you go to this place where the cold wind is blowing, what's there to see in the deep mountains and forests?
"What did you just buy? So long. ”
"Report to the child, the specialty shop just now, there are a lot of delicious yo, the store said that you can try to eat, the first time the little one eats this delicious food, roar, the small one tastes everything, and then can't help chopping his hands.
I bought a pound of each, I think it's so delicious, Mrs. and Miss will definitely like it, Childe, there are gifts for this trip! ”
The kid was a little embarrassed when he said this, he came up with an idea instead of the son, but he bought so much at once.
"Hmm" Ji Yunxiao doesn't care, this trip was originally to dig resources.
The kid didn't hear the son's scolding, so he breathed a sigh of relief, it's better to follow such a son!
Back then, he gave up begging, which was really a wise choice, not only did he not have enough to eat at that time, but he also couldn't dress warmly.
It's different now, follow the son to eat well, drink well, live well, and still have a salary, hehe, save money for another year or two, he wants to find a family and marry a daughter-in-law.
Boy, thinking beautifully, suddenly noticed that there was a big tree lying horizontally on the road ahead, and the carriage could pass it, but it would be very bumpy.
He slowly stopped the carriage and said to the son behind him: "Childe, I don't know who has no public morality on the road, put a big tree on the road, and the small one gets off the car and moves the tree away." ”
