Chapter 86: Why Line Up Here?
Found an inn and only needed a room. The cheapest room is 20 cents a night.
Tian Village Chief said to Shen Yunxi: "Youqing family, bring the big cow to your room, and bring the silver with you, you have to pay attention." My second dog and I rested on the ox cart in the backyard and watched our cattle in case they were stolen. ”
Unfamiliar environment. It's always right to be careful.
Shen Yunxi nodded: "Hey, the village chief has worked hard." Today, I asked the shopkeeper about the situation and prices of the two seed stores. Local credit is good. The iron shop is on the other side of the county. Let's go it alone. You go and buy ironware, and the bull and I go and buy seeds. ”
Tamura was worried. "Youqing's family, these seeds are related to the harvest of this season. Can you tell if it's good or bad?"
Shen Yunxi said with a smile: "Uncle Village Chief, Youqing is not at home, and the fields at home are all planted by me." Have you ever seen my crops grow badly? Is there a small grain harvest?"
Tian Ergou gave a thumbs up and said to Shen Yunxi: "Village Chief, the fields of the Youqing family are good. I went to see the fields in my village every day, which were better than those of experienced farmers. ”
Tian Daniu also hurriedly said: "My mother is very powerful."
Tamura Chief thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, you go buy some grain seeds." If you can, buy more. ”
Shen Yunxi nodded: "Okay, this grain is two pennies a pound more expensive than ordinary grain." The grains are abundant, and the eight cents are a pound. One acre of land requires seven or eight catties of grain. A thousand catties of good grain are worth eight taels of silver. ”
"Then buy 1,000 pounds." Tamura replied, "Ergou, just now I saw you talking happily with an old man with a black face. What do you say?"
Tian Ergou replied: "That old man is a farmer, and he is still a local farmer, so I said that he must be an old cropper." Although I couldn't fully understand what he was saying, and he probably couldn't understand what I was saying, the gist was clear. Also, I have farmed in the south, and I know how to grow rice. ”
"The second dog is amazing. This year we are going to rely on you to grow rice. Tamura praised.
It was late, and everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
As soon as it was dawn the next day, they began to get up, eat, and move on their own devices.
Shen Yunxi was not in a hurry to buy seeds. She took a closer look at the two. I saw that there was a store where many people were queuing, so I took Tian Daniu to queue.
Tian Daniu looked at another grain seed store not far away, and asked in a low voice: "Mother, there are very few people there, and you will be able to buy seeds soon." Why are we lining up here?"
Shen Yunxi lowered his voice and whispered to Tian Daniu: "We are not familiar. The details of these two stores are not known, but the locals know the quality of these two stores. So many people buy it, it must be right. ”
Tian Daniu suddenly understood.
The woman in front of her who bought millet vaguely understood the conversation between Shen Yunxi and Tian Daniu. She also leaned over and lowered her voice and said, "The boss of that house has changed." There are shrunken shells inside. My man bought some at his house. After the seeds were soaked through, many empty shells popped up. There weren't enough seeds at home, so we had to buy more. ”
Shen Yunxi understood, "Thank you, sister-in-law." ”
"From out of town?" The woman looked at Shen Yunxi, who had a sallow face and was skinny, but her clothes were not bad, and there were no patches on her body. I can't see that Shen Yunxi is a refugee fleeing the famine.
Shen Yunxi smiled: "Yes, sister-in-law." My master has returned to his hometown from the north. We are his servants from the north. Our accent is not on this side. Let you see the smile. ”
