Chapter 68: Buying Farm Tools
Ye Lan followed behind Xiao Liuzi, she was petite, Xiao Liuzi could be a servant, her figure would not be low, and her whole person was blocked tightly, no wonder Blacksmith Liu couldn't see her, so he thought that Xiao Liuzi was making fun of him, and his face was obviously unswerving.
If it hasn't been opened for so long, his house will almost be unable to open the pot, and if it continues like this, he should take his family out to beg.
I really can't stay at home today, so I went to the shop to take a look, and by the way, I hit two objects to pass the time.
"Blacksmith Liu, what did you say, when did I ever look for you to be happy?"
Xiao Liuzi was not very happy, and saying this to him in front of a girl was not misleading for no reason.
Besides, is he such a boring person?
Blacksmith Liu also knew that he had a bad attitude, and Xiao Liuzi was also on an errand in the county government no matter what he said, so he couldn't be offended, so he immediately said, "That's not true, but the business you just said is .........."
Blacksmith Liu looked left and right to make sure he didn't see anyone, and then continued: "There are no people, where does the business come from? Could it be that the prefectural lord needs a sword?"
This is possible, the officials are working, and the swords on their bodies are inevitably damaged, and most of them are reported to the yamen, and then the county government will pay to help rebuild them.
Blacksmith Liu guessed that it might be this, but he was not very interested, and the county government asked him to forge tools, and the money he gave was not much.
Of course, even if he doesn't have much, he has to take it, after all, he is just an ordinary blacksmith, and he can't afford to be an official, even if it's an ordinary official, he can't be offended, and the people don't fight with the officials, this is the law.
Ye Lan didn't want to waste time, so she took the initiative to stand up behind Xiao Liuzi and said, "Blacksmith Liu, I'm looking for you to buy farm tools."
Blacksmith Liu saw Ye Lan at this time, and immediately said, "Yo, it turns out that there are really people, blame me for not seeing people. Girl, what did you just say? You want to buy farm tools?"
He didn't have his ears, at this time, the ground was all dry to ashes, and there were still people who bought farm tools, what did they buy them for?
Does it look good?
"Yes, I want to buy farm tools, I will buy as much as you want, don't worry about the silver, I will pay you as much as you usually sell."
Of course, Ye Lan knew why they were so surprised, she didn't bother to explain, and she didn't want to expose the fact that there was a water source in Sifang Village.
"Really?" Blacksmith Liu was still a little unconvinced.
"I said Blacksmith Liu, why are you talking so much nonsense? If you sell it, you will take it out, and if you don't sell it, you will give a word, and I will take this girl to find a home."
Xiao Liuzi can't stand it, you don't care if she really buys it or not, promise to come down first, and won't you know the answer after receiving the money.
Chirp crookedly, this Kaiyang County is not only a blacksmith shop, but it is close to here, so he brought people here.
To be honest, Blacksmith Liu's performance today is really not good, if he wants to be like this, Xiao Liuzi can only abandon here and take Ye Lan to the next house.
"Sell, sell, sell, why don't you sell, I'll give you a girl, you move out, girl, wait."
Blacksmith Liu didn't delay any longer, for fear that Xiao Liuzi would take people away, so he turned around and went into the shop to move farm tools with a roar.
After a while, he came out with seven or eight hoes and asked, "Girl, are these enough?"
Ye Lan frowned, there are more than fifty people in Sifang Village, in addition to the old and weak women and children, there are also twenty or thirty young and middle-aged people, of course I am not enough.
So he said directly: "It's not enough, at least thirty are enough, in addition, firewood knives, sickles, shovels and other farm tools are also needed, do you have them in your store?"
Xiao Liuzi and Blacksmith Liu were stunned for a moment, glanced at each other, and both saw disbelief in each other's eyes.
Xiao Liuzi asked, "Girl, what do you want so many farm tools for?" Also, these are all iron tools, and the weight is not light, how are you going to bring them back?"
This girl is full of strangeness, she comes to buy things without a person, it seems that she wants to buy a lot of things, there is no silver to say, even if there is, how should she take away the things she buys?
What's more, there are piles of refugees outside the city, isn't she afraid of being robbed?
"Don't ask so much, since I bought it, I have my own way to take it with me
, I just ask you if you have it here? If there is, take it out, if not, then take out as much as you want."
My aunt and grandmother have space and can fit as many things as they want, but I won't tell you, so it's useless to ask more. If you want silver, you can take out the things neatly and talk less nonsense.
"Good......... Okay, I'll go get it." Z.br>
Blacksmith Liu plans to ignore so much for now, and then talk about moving things out, anyway, there is Xiao Liuzi here, and I believe that this girl will not play with him.
So Mali went into the shop to move farm tools, and in a short time, he moved out all the finished products that he had in his shop.
Looking at the various farm tools like a hill, Xiao Liuzi and Blacksmith Liu looked at Ye Lan at the same time, thinking: With so many things, did the little girl really take them?
Ye Lan also made a difficulty, there are many things, as long as it is not too difficult to put it into the space, but in front of others, it is impossible for her to put it in immediately.
So he thought for a while and said, "Sixth brother, is there a place in Kaiyang County that sells carriages? As you can see, I have a horse myself, but I lack a carriage. Can you take me to buy a carriage? That way, I can take all the things I bought back with me."
As soon as Ye Lan said that she wanted to buy a carriage, Xiao Liuzi immediately felt that it made sense, with a carriage, it was indeed easier for the little girl to bring things back.
So he immediately said, "Yes, there is one in the west of the city, and their carriages are doing well, and the carriages of those rich families in Kaiyang County are made by their families."
"That's good, please take me on a trip."
"Yes, I'll show you the way."
"Thank you, Big Brother Liuzi."
"The girl doesn't have to thank me, it's just her duty."
Indeed, if he hadn't taken the lead with the previous twenty taels of silver, and the county magistrate had given another order, he would not have accompanied a little girl to go shopping and buy things.
Ye Lan was not polite, she turned around and gave Blacksmith Liu ten taels of silver and said, "Put the things here for you first, you calculate the money, I'll go buy a carriage, come back to pick up the goods later, and I'll make it up to you later."
"Well, listen to the girl."
With ten taels of silver in his hand, Blacksmith Liu's heart blossomed, and his attitude towards Ye Lan was called respect.
Thinking of the value of this pile of farm tools, Blacksmith Liu's smile always hung on his face, thinking: Their family will not have to worry about it for the next year.
Ye Lan left with Xiao Liuzi, thinking of buying a carriage, so he proposed, "Brother Liuzi, let's go back to the city gate to lead the horse first, and then go to buy a carriage, what do you think?"
Xiao Liuzi thought about it and nodded in agreement, buying a carriage requires a horse to test the car, although the family also has horses, but how can they have their own good.
What's more, if you buy a carriage and take it with you, it's not good for the little girl to buy another horse, after all, people already have horses.
