In just a few words, the guy not only brought two chairs, but also a small table.

The vegetable plate in the man's hand, two refined tea bowls, steaming and fragrant tea.

"What does the old lady need today? The small ones will be ready for you right away. ”

"There's no hurry, and I have something to ask you." Lin Tao scraped the lid of the bowl.

After drinking the muddy water for a long time, the tea in the bowl is exceptionally sweet.

The guy held the tea tray and stood by in a proper manner, waiting for the question.

And Lin Tao's heart sank into the fragrance of tea, but his eyes stared straight into this shop.

This shop is a two-story building, and it looks like there should be a wing room on top.

There are a lot of people in the Chase room below.

Looking at the dress of those people, it should be the business-in-law of those big families.

Usually such a mother-in-law is dressed in fine cloth, clean and neat, and followed by a little girl.

Xu is Lin Tao didn't speak for a long time, and the guy was a little anxious, so he looked for a conversation first: "It's winter now, and this year's situation is not good, and all the guest houses are busy hoarding grain." ”

"That's a lot of people." Lin Tao answered.

The guy immediately opened the conversation.

"It's a coincidence today, and they all came here at this time."

Lin Tao immediately understood that the number of mothers-in-law in this was the number of those big doors in Qingyuan Town.

Probably visually, but fifty.

Thinking of this, Lin Tao grinned, Qingyuan Town is indeed too small, and even the rich people are less than fifty.

She didn't answer again, and the guy's embarrassed words were almost written on his face.

Next to him, Zhu Shi was a little breathless, touched her hand, and said in a suppressed voice: "Mother, this little brother is in a hurry." ”

"Panic! You have a needle in your butt and can't sit still? Lin Tao let out a low roar.

The guy next to him was even more embarrassed, and hurriedly answered: "Don't panic, don't panic, don't hurry, don't hurry." ”

After counting the people and seeing the things they chose, Lin Tao took out the golden eggs: "This, buy all the good fine salt, don't fool me with coarse salt." I loaded it and asked someone to carry it to my ox cart. ”

As if he had been granted amnesty, the man did not say a word, and sent for the cows to be brought to graze and watered.

As soon as the people next to him walked away, Zhu came over.

"Mother? Are you, are you alright? ”

Lin Tao sipped the tea and nodded.

Zhu Donghua didn't dare to bite his mouth.

I thought to myself, should I let the old lady go to the infirmary to have a look.

This is normal, and you can't buy salt for such a large piece of gold!

Lin Tao looked at it with satisfaction, baskets of salt, loaded into his car, and the corners of his mouth were almost to the root of his ears.

To say that the salt eaten by this rich family is really exquisite, and look at the small bamboo basket containing salt, it is quite refined.

It's not as good as the kind of soil salt with sand, which is not loaded, and the carts are pulled and piled on the ground.

If you really want to get wet, then the person who bought it deserves it.

It's because it's cheap! How can there be good goods if you are cheap!

The official salt is also graded, and the soil salt is the second, and it also costs fifty wen a hundred.

This Hu is not a catty, it is a special container made by the government that is not much larger than a cup.

Visually inspect a maximum of two taels.

However, the sand in the soil salt is like a tacit fix, and if you sift out the sand, it is estimated that there will only be more than one or two salts left.

In summer, when the medicine on the mountain is easy to dig, the original owner will buy one or two and eat it until winter.

Coarse salt is second, but it will be sold for sixty wen a hundred.

It is naturally better to be more expensive, and at least there will be no sand in the coarse salt.

But when you buy a lump of salt lumps, you also weigh them with a husk, and you will suffer a loss when you specify them.

The best, and the most expensive, is the fine salt she buys now.

The particles are small and free of impurities, but the price is as high as 70 cents.

At this price, ordinary people can't afford it.

It was just a cup of tea, and there was not much space left on the ox cart, which was crowded with small baskets of salt.

"Old lady, please follow the little one into the store to settle the account." The guy smiled brightly and invited her in.

Lin Tao carried the black cloth bag to the counter.

Inside, an old man was holding a pen and writing.

"Shopkeeper, the rest of the salt in our house has been bought by this old lady, you can calculate it."

The old man nodded his head and said, "Old lady, here, there are a total of five hundred." A total of thirty-five taels. ”

Lin Tao put the golden egg on the counter, and the old man frowned slightly.

But after a while, the old man took out a wooden balance from under the counter.

If Lin Tao hadn't seen it in a book in his previous life, he really wouldn't have recognized it.

The old man put the gold beads on one end and the ring power on the other.

She remembered that the ring weight set was ten pieces, which were roughly increased in multiples, respectively one baht, two baht, three baht, six baht, and twelve baht.

They correspond to one tael, two taels, four taels, eight taels and one catty.

Lin Tao himself didn't expect that there were as many as four taels of this golden egg.

Four taels of gold are exchanged for forty taels of silver, and thirty-five taels of salt are spent on salt, and you have to find her five taels of silver.

Is this a consolation prize?

After picking up five taels of silver, Lin Tao walked out of the shop with his hands behind his back.

Zhu Donghua was waiting in the car early, and Lin Tao carefully checked the salt again before getting into the car.

"Mother, are you going home?" Zhu asked.

"There's no hurry. Take a trip to Sister Yu's house. ”

Zhu nodded and walked forward with the ox cart.

Fish and lotus family, Lin Tao set up a stall, and talked about it during chatting.

It's easy to find, go out of the city gate, cross the moat, and you can see the fish pond of Sister Yu's house.

Due to the drought, the water level in the fish pond has dropped by as much as half.

Next to the fish pond, a vegetable field was thrown, and the vegetable leaves were thin yellow and wilted.

When I was far away, I saw Sister Yu picking up vegetables in the field.

Xu heard the sound of the car, and Sister Yu couldn't wait for the car to pass, so she ran here.

"I said damn it, why are magpies still barking on the roof. Co-authored, it's the big sister who is coming! Hurry up and sit in the house. ”

got out of the car and Lin Tao followed into the house.

It's about the same as Lao Li's house.

As soon as she sat down, Sister Yu came over with a bowl of water.

Lin Tao hurriedly thanked him, he had drunk three bowls of tea in a row before, and he was really not thirsty at this time.

After a few words of greeting, Lin Tao made it clear.

"I've brought some food, and I want to exchange some fish with your family."

"Oops! Look at what you say, I'll go fishing for you right away. What do you say you can't change! You just have to take it back and eat it. ”

Sister Yu is a straight person.

was so frightened that Lin Tao hurriedly stopped the people.

"Eldest sister, I'm not here to beg. If you're going to do that, then I'll go. ”

The fish lotus suddenly turned red.

Pulled her and asked, "Big sister, have you been to Fang City?" Did you listen to what they said? I tell you, no matter how hard my family is, I will guard the fish in this pond and will not die of hunger. You're different, you're a big family, and you don't even have a piece of land at home. ”

"Although I know that you have the ability to walk the mountain, but now when you look at the mountain, there is no green at all, and no matter how capable you are, you can't eat it. Why do you still pity me? If you have traveled so far, you will make a special trip to bring me food. ”

Lin Tao was stunned when he heard this, where is this?
