"I have inquired, and that merchant is the owner of the leather shop, and he will come to Changning County every once in a while."

On the side of a street in the West Market, Zhao Yu, Li Tai and Zhao Yunan squatted in the corner.

Li Tai pointed to a leather store across the street, and then looked at Zhao Yu beside him.

The leather shop was small, with its doors open, and it was called the North and South Leather Shops.

Zhao Yu rolled his eyes and looked at them drippingly.

At this time, Li Tai spoke again:

"I often go to that fur shop, and we used to sell them all the furs we hunted, and I also gave them the skin of the big worm last time, but I haven't seen that trader here before, and I didn't think this shop was his."

"So, Brother Li, are you familiar with this leather store?"

When Zhao Yu heard this, his eyes lit up and he looked at Li Tai.

Li Tai nodded:

"My dad and I know their shopkeepers, and it's not even good to say that they know each other."

"It's easy to talk about acquaintance! Let's go! ”

Zhao Yu slapped his face, stood up and walked towards the leather store opposite, Li Tai and Zhao Yunan hurriedly got up and followed.

The three of them walked through the bustling street and then into the leather store.

The leather shop was deserted in the afternoon, with only an old shopkeeper with half-white hair on his back, tending to the leather goods behind the counter.

Hearing movement behind him, the old shopkeeper turned to look at the door.

Seeing the three teenagers entering the store, the old shopkeeper recognized Li Tai at a glance, and a thin old face suddenly smiled:

"Yo, it turned out to be Brother Tai, and Brother Tai is here to sell leather goods today?"

As he spoke, the old shopkeeper's cloudy old eyes gradually lit up.

Last time, the Li family father and son took a big insect skin to sell, and it was the best leather goods that the leather store received this year, so the old shopkeeper was looking forward to the arrival of the Li family father and son.

But Li Tai shook his head:

"I'm not here to sell leather goods today, I'm here to find your owner!"

"Looking for our owner?"

The old shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then wondered: "I don't know what Tai Ge'er is looking for our owner?" ”

"Let's talk to him about business, you should call him out quickly!"

At this time, without waiting for Li Tai to speak, Zhao Yu took the lead.

Hearing the voice, the old shopkeeper looked at Zhao Yu.

However, Zhao Yu was a half-grown child, and the old shopkeeper didn't pay much attention to it, but looked at Li Tai with a smile:

"What kind of business does Brother Tai have, it's the same with the old man!"

"I have to tell your host about this, if it's convenient, call him out!"

Li Taiweng sighed and waved his hand a little impatiently.

Seeing this, the old shopkeeper didn't want to offend Li Tai, the big customer, so he nodded with a smile:

"In that case, wait a minute, the old man will come when he goes."

The voice fell, and the old shopkeeper came out of the counter and entered the back hall through the side door.

When he came out again, the old shopkeeper was followed by a middle-aged man of medium stature.

The middle-aged man has rough and reddish skin, and he looks like he has been exposed to the wind and sun for a long time, but his eyes are bright.

"Owner, these are the ones looking for you!"

Walking to the counter, the old shopkeeper pointed to the middle-aged Zhao Yu and the others.

"Hmm!"

The middle-aged man nodded and looked at Zhao Yu and the others.

And Zhao Yu and the three of them also looked at the middle-aged.

They looked at each other.

The middle-aged man immediately took two steps forward with a smile on his face, and looked at the mighty Li Tai in amazement:

"This is the Tai Ge'er who used to sell the fur of the white-fronted big worm, right? Sure enough, the hero is a teenager! I am like the wind, admire! ”

"Ren's shopkeeper has an overreputation, the big insect is hunted by the elders of the family, and it is only sold on behalf of the next generation!"

Li Tai looked like a warrior and bowed his hand to Ren Rufeng, neither humble nor arrogant.

Seeing this, a glimmer of light flashed in Ren Rufeng's eyes.

However, Li Tai's family is an old customer of the leather store, and Ren Rufeng did not snub him, and then smiled again:

"I heard that Brother Tai wants to talk to me about business, I don't know what kind of business it is?"

Hearing this, Li Tai did not speak, but looked at Zhao Yu.

Seeing this, Ren Rufeng also looked at Zhao Yu.

Vaguely, Ren Rufeng felt that Li Tai was mainly Zhao Yu, so he was also curious about Zhao Yu at this time.

Zhao Yu straightened his small chest, tilted his head and said:

"Shopkeeper Ren, I heard that you know sweet potatoes, is it true?"

"Yo! The little offspring even knows this thing? ”

Ren Rufeng suddenly became interested, and watched Zhao Yu become serious.

Zhao Yu nodded:

"I read it in a miscellaneous book, saying that sweet potatoes are crisp and sweet raw, and soft and glutinous when cooked, but I don't know if it's true?"

"Hehe, the little offspring will know it when he sees it!"

Shopkeeper Ren smiled mysteriously, but did not answer, but looked at the old shopkeeper beside him.

The old shopkeeper understood, smiled and walked into the back hall through the side door.

Seeing this, Li Tai and Zhao Yunan were both curious, while Zhao Yu was sparkling, looking at the side door full of anticipation.

A little bit.

The old shopkeeper walked out again, still holding a white-skinned tuber the size of a small arm.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu's eyes widened.

Just at a glance, Zhao Yu recognized that it was a sweet potato!

"That's right! It's it, it's it! ”

Zhao Yu was excited, and without waiting for the old shopkeeper to come, he immediately ran over and took the sweet potato from the old shopkeeper's hand.

Excitedly looked at the sweet potato left and right, Zhao Yu took off a little bit and stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed it with the skin.

Feeling the crispness and sweetness in his mouth, Zhao Yu's eyes narrowed the crescent moon, and then shook the sweet potato in his hand towards Ren Rufeng, and said urgently:

"Shopkeeper Ren, do you still have this thing here? I bought them all! ”

"Huh! Many people in Hunan don't know sweet potatoes, but I didn't expect a little boy to love this thing! ”

Ren Rufeng smiled dumbly, then looked at the sweet potato in Zhao Yu's hand, and said slowly:

"This thing is mostly in Fujian and Jiangxi in the east, and it has not yet reached the Hengzhou Mansion in Huguang, I only have a few catties from friends here, but they are all eaten on the road, and there are still a few left, if the little offspring likes it, then take it!"

"A few are not enough, can the shopkeeper Ren get me two or three hundred catties from the east?"

Zhao Yu shook his head and looked at Ren Rufeng full of anticipation.

"Huh?"

Ren Rufeng was stunned and looked at Zhao Yu.

He thought that Zhao Yu asking for sweet potatoes was just a young man's greedy mouth, but he didn't expect him to ask for so much, and judging from Zhao Yu's behavior just now, Ren Rufeng felt quite mature, not like a young boy of this age.

His eyes flashed, and Ren Rufeng looked at Li Tai again.

Seeing Li Tai's appearance that Zhao Yu had the final say, Ren Rufeng smiled at Zhao Yuwan:

"Xiao Housheng wants to grow this thing in the field at home, right? That's a great idea! If you want it, it's no problem to get it, but it's a bit troublesome, it takes some time, and the shipping fee is more expensive! ”

"It's all right, as long as the shopkeeper can get it!"

Zhao Yu nodded hurriedly, his face full of joy.

Seeing this, Ren Rufeng nodded in response.

At this time, Zhao Yu thought of something again, and hoped:

"Shopkeeper Ren, do you still know potatoes, corn and peppers? Potatoes also grow in the soil and are round; Corn grows on the trunk of a tree, yellow, and knots together one by one; Chili peppers are plants, like crescent moons, that start out green and then turn red on their own! ”

"Heh, the little posterity knows a lot, and sure enough, there are thousands of Zhongsu in the book!"

Ren Rufeng looked at Zhao Yu with amazement, and then nodded:

"I haven't heard of potatoes about what you're talking about! But the corn you are talking about should be maize, and the chili pepper should be pepper, these things are available in Fujian and Jiangxi! ”

"That's right, it's maize and pepper!"

The accident came too suddenly, Zhao Yu's eyes lit up, and he suddenly slapped his face.

Maize and pepper are another name for corn and pepper, Zhao Yu didn't know what they were called at this time, so he deliberately described their characteristics to Ren Rufeng, but he didn't expect Ren Rufeng to really know.

And these two are also treasures, especially chili peppers!

Zhao Yu was not spicy in his previous life, and now although the family has improved the food, his mouth is also very light, and he thinks about spicy food every day.

Moreover, chili peppers have created several major cuisines!

Thinking of those red dishes, Zhao Yu's heart was hot, and his mouth was full of saliva.

Hurriedly sucked his saliva, and Zhao Yu immediately talked to Ren Rufeng about maize and pepper seeds.

Until half an hour later.

Zhao Yucai left the leather store with Li Tai with a smile on his face.
