47 familiar seeds
The green water is worry-free, and the face is wrinkled by the wind.
When a refreshing breeze blows, the water surface ripples. The seedlings in the rice fields outside the embankment on both sides of the bank were blown green by the wind.
As the sun was about to set, the passenger ship finally docked at Wanan Wharf in Songjiang Province.
Pei Yanhua took his nine students and got off the passenger ship with their luggage, and as for the few noble people who disliked the poverty of his students, Pei Yanhua didn't plan to call them to go with him again.
Originally, this time he went to listen to the lecture of the great Confucian Sima Gong at his own expense, and he was willing to spend money to take his students out to study, which was his own business.
But there is no obligation to take them with you.
Because Pei Yanhua of Songjiang Mansion had been here, he took his students and easily found an inn with a reasonable fee and a clean inn.
Needless to say, An Chuxia and Gu Fangmiao chose to live in the same room, and it is safe and cost-effective for two people to live.
The other seven brothers and sisters, who have an iron relationship, also chose to live in one room for two people in order to save money.
Like Mo Ziluo, who is a tall person and a little clean, there is no shortage of students with silver at home, so of course he lives alone.
Although Wang Libin also has money in his family, he is broad-minded and hearty, and when the nerd Chen Han proposed that he wanted to live in a room with him, he agreed without saying a word.
Liu Fei, who has a warm and cheerful personality, looked left and right, and those who could live in one room for two people were all matched, and the rest were pretentious guys who didn't want to live with others.
He had no choice but to open a guest room by himself.
Everyone put their luggage in their rooms, washed up, and gathered in the lobby to order food.
The cost of the dinner was ten taels of silver that each of them voluntarily handed over to the teacher Pei Yanhua for safekeeping before they came.
Nine people are ninety taels, and these silver coins are only responsible for three meals a day, and when they go back, they will return more and make up for less.
During the meal, Pei Yanhua told everyone that they could go to Songjiang Mansion tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow would be the day when the great Confucian Sima Gong would give lectures.
For the next half a month, they had to go to Songjiang Mansion Hanhua Academy every day to listen to classes.
The next morning, An Chuxia and Gu Fangmiao had just gotten up and finished washing, when there was a knock on the door.
An Chuxia was packing up her things, Gu Fangmiao smeared balm on her face, heard a knock on the door and walked over to open the door, and saw Liu Fei, Mo Ziluo, Wang Libin, and Chen Han standing at the door.
Several people didn't enter the door, but just stood at the door and said, "The teacher has gone to meet friends, and the other senior brothers have also left, do you two want to go out shopping with us!" ”
"Go! Brother, wait for us! Gu Fangmiao was happy to hear that she was going out to play.
An Chuxia saw that Gu Fangmiao was so happy, and after packing up her things without distracting her interest, she followed Liu Fei and them out of the inn.
Songjiang Province is a coastal city, and people from Fanbang often come here to do trade.
Because the waterways here are relatively developed, and there are many businessmen gathered, and when they walked on the street in the early summer, they saw a variety of goods.
Liu Fei's four senior brothers surrounded An Chuxia and Gu Fangmiao in the middle, and tried to separate them from the flow of people, in case there were local ruffians and hooligans who took advantage of the woman.
Gu Fangmiao is now holding a string of sugar gourds in her left hand and cloud melon candy in her right hand, as long as the little girl she has never seen before wants to come forward and take a look.
An Chuxia followed behind Gu Fangmiao, as long as she saw something she really liked, she would buy it for her.
Like delicate beaded flowers and silk flowers, and she likes to eat.
Gu Fangmiao found that the things she looked at a few more times were all bought by An Chuxia after her, and after that, she no longer dared to show any special interest in something.
Lan Xuanjiu leaned against the window of the private room of the most luxurious restaurant in Songjiang Mansion and looked down.
The originally bored face suddenly showed a touch of interest.
The big black and white eyes are even more round and very cute, and the eyelashes like butterfly wings are fluttering, as if they are coquettish with others.
Under the straight and delicate nose bridge, a girl's home-like cherry mouth seems to be sweet and tempting to pick.
Such a slender man, nearly eight feet, has a delicate facial features with an innocent atmosphere and childishness.
Lan Xuanjiu lightly tapped his apple-like red cheeks, and his big and round eyes revealed a prey-like light.
An Chuxia didn't know that her gentle expression towards Gu Fangmiao's doting at this time would be seen by others.
This will bring their group to West Street, a street where the largest number of foreign merchants in Songjiang Prefecture sell and trade goods.
Although it is not as prosperous and lively as East Main Street, the things sold are expensive.
But the things on this street were all sold from other places, and many of them were items that Gu Fangmiao and Liu Fei didn't know.
Although An Chuxia recognized most of the things here, she didn't know what they were called in this era.
Just when everyone looked at the objects they didn't know in each stall, they asked the boss what it was and what its name was.
Suddenly, I heard Gu Fangmiao pointing to a stall and said in surprise: "Sister An, look... It doesn't look like golden teeth!
There is also something soft that emerges from the cloth bag next to it, like a white cloud! ”
An Chuxia turned her head to look at the place Gu Fangmiao was pointing at, and almost dropped her chin to the ground in surprise.
"How can there be corn and cotton here!"
"Sister An, what did you say?" Gu Fangmiao didn't hear what An Chuxia said, and asked.
At this time, Liu Fei and Mo Ziluo also came over and said jokingly: "Senior Sister Gu, did you find something good, and called your Sister An over so anxiously!" ”
An Chuxia had already walked up to the stall, picked up the corn and asked the boss, what is this called.
The boss saw that he had collected things from Fanbang in the Western Regions and finally someone asked, showing a mouthful of big white teeth and saying: "Jade millet stick, I heard the people of Fanbang say that this is delicious." ”
In fact, at that time, the boss was willing to take back these things because they were cheap, and he didn't know how to make them delicious.
But it doesn't matter if he doesn't know, it's not about meeting someone who knows.
An Chuxia asked about these things that the boss had sold back from foreign countries, and the corn was called jade cobs here, and the cotton was called white stacks.
She also saw peppers and watermelon seeds at the boss's stall.
An Chuxia pinched the snow-white cotton and found that the cotton still had seeds in it, which made her even happier.
Seeing these things, it goes without saying that An Chuxia will also buy them, although Liu Fei and they don't know why An Chuxia wants to buy these things.
But after getting along for such a long time, they also understand that An Chuxia is a steady character.
Since she must have her reasons for wanting to buy these things, no one asked or stopped them.
Looking at the bulging five bags of cotton, there are a lot of them, but they are not heavy. And what really weighed was the three big bags of corn, which were more than 300 catties.
The watermelon and pepper seeds were wrapped in two pieces of oiled paper.
So many things add up, and the chubby boss received twenty taels of silver from An Chuxia.
This shocked Wang Libin and Mo Ziluo, how could these things be so expensive than food.
Seeing An Chuxia, he paid the silver without blinking his eyes.
“……?!” All of them opened their eyes wide, so arrogant!
An Chuxia smiled and said nothing, they would think that things were expensive, that was because a few people didn't know how precious these seeds were, and if the seeds were successful, how many people would have to benefit.
