Chapter 10: Rush to the market
After eating, we cleaned up and went out together.
The sky outside is still dark, the stars and the moon are still there, it can be said that the stars and the moon are still wearing the stars, because the sky is still dark, and those who are far away can only see the outline clearly, and cannot recognize who is who.
Walking out of the village, you can see people going to the market in twos and threes, and there are many people in the village, some on foot, some on donkeys, and some on ox carts.
Shanghe Village is more than 20 miles away from the county seat, and it takes more than two hours to walk, so Jiang Meng decided to take Jiang Jiujiu and them to ride an ox cart.
After walking more than 100 meters, we came to a three-way intersection, where many people were already waiting for the ox cart.
Jiang Qiuyue: As soon as they arrived, one or two ox carts came over.
"Jiang Meng, this is taking the children into the city, not to mention that I haven't seen them for a long time." At this time, the old man who drove looked at Jiang Meng's family and said with a smile.
"Huh! It's just been a long time. After the moon girl was injured, the children were bored, no, the moon girl will take them to the county town to go shopping! Jiang Meng responded honestly.
"Moon girl, what a good boy! This injury is over, but there should be no sequelae. The old man sighed.
"It's over, thank you Uncle Chuan for your concern! It's still the old rule of three pennies per person. Jiang Meng thanked him, paid the fare, and put the processed wild things and the basket on the ox cart.
At this time, there were already people sitting on the ox cart, and after Jiang Meng and his party sat on it, the ox cart was full.
"Sit tight! Go! The old man shook his whip and slammed it on the buttocks of the ox, and the ox cart walked forward.
……
It's time for the county market!
The streets were full of people and everyone was smiling. Male, female, old, young, you squeeze me, I squeeze you, push back and forth; The dazzling array of goods is dazzling and dizzying; The cries of selling one after another are endless; The fragrance is evocative.
"Sugar gourd, sugar gourd, delicious sugar gourd!"
"Take a look, take a look, fun toys!"
"Girl, this flower is so beautiful with you, just buy more!"
"Boss, give you two pennies."
"Auntie, let's buy a dish, this is just this morning."
"Boss, how much does your meat sell for?"
"Twenty dollars a pound"
……
"Wow~"
"Wow~"
"Wow, it's so hilarious!"
"There are so many people!"
"Dad, there are so many people! Why are there so many people today? ”
"Yes, yes, a lot of people!"
A few children lamented the people coming and going in the bazaar. Jiang Jiujiu also sighed in his heart, "Well, it's very lively." "For Jiang Jiujiu, who was used to seeing prosperity on the earth before, although he hadn't seen such a lively scene for a month, he only had a momentary sigh for this lively scene.
"Alright, follow me, don't get separated." Jiang called out to a few children and walked forward with wild objects.
"Let's keep up!" Jiang Jiu walked forward with the twins on one side, and Jiang Haochen followed behind. There are people coming and going on this street, and if you don't take them away by human traffickers, you won't be able to find them back.
……
Welcome Lounge!
"Xiao Er, where are you shopkeepers?" Jiang Meng stopped Xiao Er and asked.
"What's the matter with the guest officer? Eat or stay in the hotel! Xiao Er asked. This little two looks like he is fifteen or sixteen years old, with dark skin and a white cloth on his shoulder.
"We don't eat and we don't live in stores, we sell things." This little two has never seen it, Jiang Meng explained with a smile.
"Sell something?" Xiao Er has a large number of Jiang Meng's party, an adult forty children, and the adults are carrying a string of wild things in their hands, among which two children are carrying baskets.
"Xiaolin, what are you doing if you don't work?" At this moment, a voice came.
"Brother Xiaochuan, I'll go right away, there's an uncle here who wants to sell something." The shopkeeper called Xiaolin.
I saw a young man about eighteen or nineteen years old walking over.
"Uncle Meng, it turned out to be you!" Walking over, the shopkeeper saw Jiang Meng speak.
"Xiaochuan, where is the shopkeeper of your house?" Jiang Meng looked at the shopkeeper and asked.
"Uncle Meng, this time I hit something good. Shopkeeper, in the backyard. I'll help you call," the shopkeeper finished and walked to the backyard.
After a while, the shopkeeper and Xiao Er came.
"Shopkeeper Liu, how are you doing?" Jiang Meng asked with a smile.
"Brother Meng, what did you bring this time? Who are these children? ”
"This time I brought two pheasants, three hares and a fox, and some furs, which I plan to sell later. These are my children. Jiang Meng looked at Shopkeeper Liu and explained.
"Oh. Brother Meng, what a blessing!
Fox, that's a good thing! This fox fur is warm, just wait a minute, you sell it to me, and you don't have to buy it anywhere else. "Shopkeeper Liu had a fox one day, and his eyes lit up.
"Oh, that's a good feeling." When Jiang Meng heard this, he even bought fur with him.
"Shopkeeper Liu, this fox meat can also be eaten, why don't you buy it together!" At this time, September interjected on the sidelines.
"Oh! Can you still eat this fox meat? Do you know how? When Shopkeeper Liu heard that fox meat could be eaten, he immediately asked, a little unconvinced.
"Of course I do!" Jiang Jiujiu replied with confidence on his face.
"Then tell me, what's so good about this meat!" Shopkeeper Liu said.
"Fox meat is sweet and warm. It has the ability to replenish deficiency and warmth, detoxify sores, cure fatigue, forgetfulness, palpitations, yellow swelling of water vapor, and scabies. The fox heart has a calming and diuretic effect. It is mainly used to treat madness, palpitations, insomnia, dizziness, edema and other diseases. Fox lungs have the effect of tonifying the lungs, dissolving phlegm, and fixing asthma. It is mainly used for the treatment of chronic bronchitis, emphysema and other diseases. Jiang Jiujiu said about the benefits of fox meat.
"This fox meat still has this benefit." Shopkeeper Liu was surprised.
"Big sister will be a lot!"
"The eldest sister's cooking is delicious!" The twins said.
"Of course, the premise is that Shopkeeper Liu must be willing to put the material! If it's delicious, I'd like to do business with the owner! Jiang Jiujiu said.
"Alright, as you say." The boss should be there.
"Then shouldn't the boss let my father and them go to rest, after all, I am tired from this long journey." Let's settle these people down first. There is an alley next to the restaurant, which should lead to his backyard.
"Xiao Chuan took the fierce brothers and them to the backyard to rest." Shopkeeper Liu asked the shopkeeper Xiaochuan to take Jiang Meng and them to rest.
……
"Shopkeeper Liu, take me to the kitchen." Jiang Jiujiu said.
The kitchen is heavy, and idlers are not allowed to enter. Generally, outsiders are not allowed to enter, and the shopkeeper calculated that since Jiang Jiujiu said that he could make delicious food, it meant that this was another money-making idea. It doesn't matter if you come in once, what's more, he monitors the whole process.
"Shopkeeper Liu, I'll take a look at your condiment!" As soon as he entered the house, Jiang Jiujiu shouted.
"Ah, it's in this row!" He gestured to the row in front of him.
The restaurant is the restaurant, and she saw pepper, pepper, garlic, ginger, pepper, chives, cinnamon, bay leaves, and star anise. This thing is really only available in rich families and restaurants, and poor families really haven't seen it.
It's easy to do if you have it, but if you don't have it, it's difficult.
