Before the news came back, Xu Laosan and Lao Si had just returned from buying porcelain jars from Xishan Town.

By the way, I also brought back two geese and a basket of eggs.

"Where did you get the goose eggs, I didn't let you buy them, I just collected the chickens and eggs a few days ago." Mrs. Xu asked while helping her granddaughter concoct cork.

"The blacksmith Wu in the town gave it to Tian Xin.

Blacksmith Wu said that he never expected to help Tian Xin beat a few scrap iron to clear the snow, and he actually asked Zhenting to send someone to him to settle it.

As soon as the town opened its mouth, it cost twenty, and it was quite happy to give money to the yamen.

No, if you hit the door of his house, you may have recognized our ox cart.

His old wife pinched the goose's neck, straddled the egg basket, and shoved us into the car, don't want it, let us bring it back."

Mrs. Xu laughed when she heard this: "There are no two geese left in Blacksmith Wu's house, right? Okay, human affection is like this, the more you move around, the thicker it becomes, put it there, it just so happened that I didn't hoard geese this time. If Tian Xin doesn't eat it, I'll stew it and sell it, and then buy her something else to eat after selling it."

Xu Laosan saw a kang of cork, and when he just arrived home, he was obviously choked by the cold but couldn't sit still and said, "I went to welcome the caravan and didn't come, so I picked up some cork by the way."

I heard Uncle Guan say that one bag can be worth two taels of silver, and ten bags of it at home is equivalent to a net income of more than 20 taels, so I will pick it up if there is nothing to do.

was glared at by Mrs. Xu, as if she lacked heart.

The medicine hall is not allowed to accept cork from unknown origin, and the government is not allowed to pick it up casually. After all, no matter how much ordinary people pick up, it's useless to use medicine, so why bother saving this thing?

And there are a number of Lang Zhong who can use medicine. It was reported and arrested.

To put it mildly, if someone dares to recycle and dare to give money, it will be the turn of the third child? Just Guan Erbald can make the tree more bald than his hair, and he has already made a fortune.

Mrs. Xu handed over the medicinal soup that her granddaughter had specially made for the two uncles and said, "Stop at home, I don't dare to walk around without looking at it, the stall in the village has been thrown away, and I have to let your grandmother watch it." The caravan is coming, so it's cold enough to drink a hot soup."

Xu Laosan and Lao Si were worried when they heard that they were drinking hot soup.

Since Xu Tianxin announced that he would start studying medicine, and those expensive books were also bought, their family is now drinking tonic medicine from old age to young age.

It is said that their brother drank Sanhuang soup, which can be disinfected from the stomach all the way to the small intestine.

And not only drink soup during the day, but also take medicine at night.

It's a little better, but that's too much......

Life and death are life, wealth is in the sky.

Xu Laosan suggested that his niece learn fortune-telling again. Calculate it for him when the time comes, and see if it's worth it. If his life is very hard, let alone spending money on medicine, he will go to the battlefield to cut off people's heads. Last time, I heard those soldiers say that if you kill a very small official, you can get fifty taels, and he killed more than 100 of them and brought them back to his mother.

Xu Laosi twisted his eyebrows and drank the decoction, and said to Mrs. Xu seriously:

"Mother, there is a sentence, I wanted to say it a long time ago, if Tian Xin didn't want to study medicine, let's just wait for her to be busy, I don't want to make any more money, our family will have a family by then, and we can afford it.

Then send it to Fucheng or go to the side to find a serious gentleman.

I'm not paying attention to my Uncle Guan, but you see, we are a good girl, since I studied behind Uncle Guan, I have been picking up rags in the village every day these days.

Uncle Guan is famous, all kinds of feces, chicken feces, known shells, stove gray centipedes, peanut skin corn whiskers, and even egg skins are picked up at home as treasures.

In his eyes, fingernails and hair are medicine.

I'm really worried that after a few years of studying with him, our good girl will fly all over the house.

And our family is not the difficult days of the past, so why bother. It's that Tian Xin doesn't earn anything so far, and we can afford to spend a little less.

Guess what, what did I hear Uncle Guan and our Tian Xin say that day?"

"What did you say?"

"Uncle Guan is still complacent, saying that he only started picking up rags in his thirties, and Tian Xin started at the thirteenth level, which is twenty years less than him."

The key niece answered, smiled and said, Grandpa, then I started higher than you.

Speaking of his niece, "What about Tian Xin, boiling hemorrhoids cream at home?" Alas, how much Xu Youyin hopes that his niece will only play with flowers and plants.

And Xu Youyinzhi asked his niece if she was in the village, it was because she didn't dare to occupy the new shop now, for fear that the caravan would arrive at any time.

The niece arranged for 20 girls who made soaphorns and 20 old men to work in the house of the lonely old man in the village and pay the rent. There, a group of people boiled the acacia solid, and a group of people boiled the base of the face oil.

However, in other words, Tian Xin has changed his normal behavior and has been running out recently.

It's like clearing snow before, and obviously don't need my niece to be guilty of going to the border to steal tree bark. They just steal. And there is also an air to teach everyone to ski.

Mrs. Xu didn't take her youngest son's complaint seriously.

The granddaughter greeted her and said Grandma, I want to follow Grandpa Guan to the village to pull garbage, don't dislike it, learning Chinese medicine is like this, this is doing knowledge.

Because once you study medicine, you can't just treat the rich to make money, so why not do something else. Therefore, if you want to treat more ordinary people, you must master a lot of earthwork. After all, for most people, it is better to spend less money and the efficacy of earthwork is slow, and it is more cost-effective than directly prescribing expensive drugs and giving surgery.

When her granddaughter said such a thing, how could Mrs. Xu still dislike picking up rags?

Pick it up, fortunately, her granddaughter will make money, and the current conditions at home are okay, so she can't afford to go to other people's houses to pick up garbage, and others will also think that Tian Xin has a new trick to make a lot of money, and will not pay attention to anything else behind her back.

As for hearing that the fourth child wondered why Tian Xin was always running out recently, Mrs. Xu glared at the fourth child.

Xu Laosi looked inexplicable, what did he say? It's annoying to my mother.

Mrs. Xu thought to herself: It's really annoying, and her heart is so careful.

Why could it be? for live streaming.

That can't be repeated in a day Zibo to make hemorrhoids cream and cream, it is she who suggested that her granddaughter go out for a run and ski, and then steal something to stimulate at the junction of the live broadcast.

Yes, the few taels of silver earned by live streaming now are not so important.

But no matter what time it is, the family members in the live broadcast room are very important, and it is always worth their grandparents to put down their earning livelihood to broadcast fresh scenes.

In Mrs. Xu's view, without her family, there would be no today.

However, at this time, Mrs. Xu really didn't know where her granddaughter had gone, and she was just about to reply that she should be back in the village, when there was a news that a distinguished guest had arrived outside.

Yes, Mrs. Xu immediately understood where her granddaughter had gone.

The designation is to hear that the background music in the live broadcast room has changed, and some distant guests ask you to stay. The guy is a beautiful girl, and the crooked Rika mother spits in the northeast and the like, and when it's over, he runs away with the plow. The ox cart wasn't at home, just came back.

And why not let someone else greet the guests, at the moment the dogs only recognize her granddaughter.

On weekdays, Liu Laozhu can be fed, but Liu Laozhu sometimes can't control where to run, and often comes to a trip that says go, I don't know where to go, depending on the mood of the dogs.

Every time Liu Laozhu drove the dog to climb the plow and went out, he had to bring two large cakes with him in advance.

Far from it.

Mrs. Xu hurriedly packed up the cork and stood up, and asked the third child to carry away quickly.

Come on, come on, they really came.

"How many people came?"

No one expected that Budai, who was only eight years old, would be the fastest baby in the village to learn to ski.

Think about the code sent back by Sister Tian Xin with suona, and tell everyone, "About 300 people."

After a stick of incense:

"Welcome, guest officers, please!" The bathing group, the fire group, the cooking group, the livestock group, and the unloading group, from the old to the young, stood in two long rows to greet the guests, and they were always lined up on the avenue and made a gesture to invite in.

Erdaohe Village, next to the one-eyed snowman.

To be honest, the guest officers were a little frightened at first when they saw Xu Tianxin driving a climbing plow truck with ten big dogs, and then standing on the climbing plow truck and blowing suona into the distance.

It's as if I'm sending a message to someone in advance.,It's always like the next step is to rob their goods.。

But still firmly followed.

Because the street signs are not as clear as those written here, basically every ten miles will tell you how far there is left, and you can get there.

It's too cold, and it's all about how many miles are left.

So they felt that if it was fake, and it was marked in such detail, the Zhenbei General's Mansion could not allow it. ap.

In addition, it began to snow from the Shanhaiguan, they have never seen the road clear snow so clean, look at the signs, if you understand that the two rivers are clear, in escort for them, but also wish them a long journey.

It must be come, no matter whether it is good or bad, at least it must be lived for a night, and it will be warm and warm first.

Now, at last, the tea merchants were a little surprised by the enthusiasm.

Along the way, not to mention that I have never seen such a village car shop, and I have never seen an inn in a major city.

The convoy of this tea merchant team was 200 mule carts, and the escorts and people who followed the carts together were 300 people.

Mrs. Xu didn't talk nonsense, didn't say anything polite first, under Liu Laozhu's introduction, after getting to know the biggest leader of this caravan, she made a gesture of invitation, and while signaling to follow her into the house to warm up, she asked first, the mule is used to chew, do you feed it yourself, and eat your own food, or use ours. We'll serve you well.

In fact, Mrs. Xu already has the answer in her heart.

The caravan is frozen enough to choke on such a big crime, it's time to play? It is better to load a few more truckloads of forage than to load a few more truckloads of tea, such a big deal, of course, is bought.

Sure enough, this is different from modern times, and it is always necessary to arrange for the livestock to eat and rest first.

"A mule is 200 yuan a day, and each mule is fed 45 pounds of forage, roughage, grain, corn stalks, and wheat stalks every day. Five pounds of concentrate. The concentrate contains corn, sorghum, soybeans, and black beans. Feed the water, scrub it, take care of it, we'll do it."

Calculate the cost, they are not stupid, the cost alone is one hundred and sixty-five Wen. Collect forage money from the villagers in various villages, whether you want dozens of dollars or not, and people will deliver them to your home. There are also five catties of concentrate money, and then hire someone to feed the wages.

And this caravan had two hundred mules, and it was necessary to use many people to work, and to earn five taels a day. The five taels of silver are still Liu Laozhu, the Xu family, the Meizhuang, the Wang family, the Wan family, etc., and even the Bai family, these people who contributed to the land to build livestock sheds shared the five taels of silver.

A livestock shed as long as Xu's family can only be divided into one or two halves.

So it's no wonder that Team Leader Zhang showed a slightly surprised expression, although he didn't want people to see it in a flash, but everyone knew in their hearts that they didn't expect Erdaohe to be really not dark.

Do you know how much silver taels they spend a day just to feed the cattle in Fucheng? Exactly doubled.

Even if the store is worth a lot more than here, it can't be doubled.

And all the way down, the cheapest is also the business done by the people in the village on the side of the road, which is also two taels more expensive than the price here.

Team Leader: It is worthy of being the first merchant to be very thoughtful everywhere from the time he entered the land of Zhenbei. This is his first impression when he really meets the people of Erdaohe Village, which is excellent.

I don't think that because I see that they are tired and don't want to hurry anymore, these people can also feed them really.

"I'm in trouble with the store, I'll feed you."

Liu Laozhu immediately led the mule group, quickly, to help unload the truck and unload, and let the mules enter the shed.

As a general leader, Team Leader Zhang is already very tired, and all other things he can leave to his subordinates to decide, but the cargo is the most important.

So when the car was unloaded, Team Leader Zhang took the initiative to ask if there was a house with stock, and how many silver wallets he needed to store the more than 60,000 catties of tea he needed to store the house, and he wanted to be in charge of the key, and it was best to arrange five people to live in the house to watch the goods.

Mrs. Xu understood, and immediately received her that she didn't do anything, she was stunned to build a boss's empty room, and put so many wooden partitions on the kang, she was going to tire her second son to death, and it was time to return to her roots:

"This room

It should not be a problem for the child to drop off the goods.

These locks are all new, you choose one, and the windows can be reversed.

This house is three taels of silver a day, and to tell the truth, what is collected is the money for the burning of the house and the firewood for hired people.

Otherwise, I can rent it out, isn't this a mutual market, don't look at us as a village, we can rent it out a lot of money a year.

In addition, I see that the goods you brought are tea, and I will ask the helper's boy to bring in some more water, and try to make this room as wet as possible, and our northern land will be dry, and if the kang and the fire wall are hot, it will be even drier."

"I didn't expect the store to know how to store tea?"

Mrs. Xu waved her hand and said modestly, "Before you came, you asked around, and then let the children flip through the books to understand a little more. I'm afraid that the goods of you guests from afar will be ruined. I heard that tea is too dry, it is not good, it tastes bad."

Mrs. Xu looked at Team Leader Zhang again and smiled, "If you don't say it, it's really a distinguished guest, and the children are not wrong. Tea merchants have been the most important market since ancient times. I heard that they would rather go without food for three days than without tea for a day, and they eat meat on their side, which is crooked. What's more, as the saying goes, three cups of wine in the red dust of thousands of miles are a pot of tea for a thousand years. Even my little old lady knows that tea is indispensable for big things."

"You praise you falsely, compared to the latter ones, like grain merchants, salt merchants, and silk jewelry, I don't do anything wrong. In the back, there are too many caravans, I guess they will all settle here."

Mrs. Xu smiled and blossomed, there are too many wows, come quickly.

What Mrs. Xu didn't know was that what she just said to someone was stupid to Liu Laozhu, what did she tutor behind their backs.

And the leader of this face medal is after selecting the key, and is signaling his subordinates to move the goods.

While deliberately going outside to squint at the plaque, "It's you, auntie, surnamed Xu, these shops are all yours?"

He wanted to make friends, because there was so much horse manure outside the wall.

The horse is for military and official use, coupled with Mrs. Xu's conversation, who believes that he has no background, he is a caravan from other places, and he may come more than this time in the future.

He had already seen that here, the aunt in front of him had the right words. That one is right, pull aside.

"Yes, my husband's surname is Xu, these are my shop."

"I've noticed these two plaques since I came in, Xiyu Xu, with my body, is there any meaning?"

Mrs. Xu: The meaning is that you haven't learned pinyin, Xiyu, Xu. Jiang is just to the west of the village, and the family mainly sells fish for food. That's what the restaurant called.

Very casual.

As for the promise of the body, it is a bathhouse. If you don't give us your body, how can you take a bath.

Taking advantage of the situation, Mrs. Xu led the largest leader of the tea merchant to the big bathhouse.

Liu Laozhu once again admired Xu Lao's generosity in peacetime.

In recent days, the caravan obviously did not come, but Mrs. Xu still asked everyone to burn the boiler, and the bathhouse must be hot as soon as you enter the house, and let the next big pool be filled with bubbling water, so that people can warm up at a glance.

Liu Laozhu persuaded him, saying that our hall is too big, and it takes water and firewood to burn it, and there are about 20 and a half children who hire people to burn the fire, and they go in from the side of the house to the ground to burn, and what is the daily salary.

When the caravan comes, let's recreate the burn, and it will be warm in more than half an hour. If you can't count your life, you will be poor.

Tian Xin's milk used him as a fart, she didn't listen to him, you see, you didn't listen to him.

Let people see that it is cold in the house, it is better to go to the hot kang and wait for dinner, so can you still take a bath?

Mrs. Xu is introducing: "This is a cabinet for storing clothes, several pools together can wash more than 70 people, each person has a key, we can't open other people's cabinets, we don't have spare keys, so don't lose it, the small cabinet can store your change of clothes."

Xu Laoer: Do you know why he hasn't shown up for several days? I couldn't finish this carpentry work at all, so I worked for my mother again.

Although he did not make these cabinets, he was working for his niece at the time.

But he made the wooden locks and the wooden keys for the cabinet doors. He was also forced to take his own right

After learning to become a talent, after being reminded by my niece, the wooden core is set with different buckles, otherwise a lock will open the whole door, and I am afraid that the guests will not dare to store things with confidence.

When Mrs. Xu was talking to Leader Zhang, the members of the bathing group were also behind, lobbying the caravan to follow the others who came over to watch the excitement.

And for good reason, look, it's all steaming, look at your longing little eyes. The meal will have to wait a while.

"Count nine cold days, freeze hands and feet, it's better to do something, it's better to take a bath, brew first and then soak, talk and laugh. Come on, come on, guests, please come inside!"

Team leader Zhang and several leaders smiled, washed, their feet were frozen and scratched, and they had to hand over the goods tomorrow, so they had to wash well.

Mrs. Xu hurriedly took advantage of this to get busy, everyone who rubbed the bath here had to be trained, and she would reply to the second child, and just call the second child to collect money with the fourth uncle.

"How many Wen?"

Liu Laozhu's voice came from inside:

"We have packages.

The large package of 150 Wen per person, which includes tickets, baths, and fragrant soup.

Let's talk about this fragrant soup list, first of all, it includes the medicine bag that is soaked in the big pool to relax the muscles and invigorate the blood. There are also toothbrushes and toothpaste, and there are expensive salts in the toothpaste, who knows who uses it, it is particularly good.

You shampoo your hair, bathe your body, and put facial oil on your face after washing, you have it all. In addition, cupping, scraping, massage, and refreshments are included.

The small package is a washing and rubbing, seventy wen per person. There was a medicine bag in the pool, and nothing else.

And the comfortable single, just bubbles."

Liu Laozhu smiled, and said with a handkerchief on his arm: "Finally, there is a super rich set, one hundred and seven for one person, and I will give you laundry from the inside out."
