Chapter 1199
The water just drawn from the cool water well is indeed very cold, even in the case of the outside temperature below zero, you can feel the cold of the water, what is the reason for this phenomenon, no one knows in this era, and even in the era of later generations, there are many magical natural phenomena that people may not be able to understand, there are many magical natural phenomena that are very unreasonable, people do not know what to do.
"This water is not only cold, but also has a sweet taste, so you might as well taste it."
The old man said enthusiastically.
"Makes sense, let's taste it."
Ang Lee and Lao Guo respectively scooped half a scoop of water with a scoop, put it in their mouths and tasted it, it really had a sweet taste, in short, it was very delicious.
"The mouth is sweet, the aftertaste is endless, it is a rare good water!"
Li An opened his mouth and praised.
Lao Guo also nodded and said, "Yes, yes, it's a little sweet, good water!" It's just too cold, if it's still so cold in the summer, it's great, and drinking it must be a special relief from the heat. ”
This kind of natural well water, many of them have a sweet taste, and the people of later generations, the water that can be drunk is the tap water with bleaching powder, not to mention the sweetness, it is good to be less weird, the general rural people who have just arrived in the city, are not used to drinking tap water, the taste is much worse than the brick well water, people who have drunk the brick well water, to drink the tap water will be a torment, and the people who have drunk the tap water, and then to drink the brick well water, but can drink the sweetness, very sweet and sweet.
"Is it cooler in the summer than it is now? Drink a special relief from the heat.,But,Don't drink too much.,If you drink too much.,It's going to break the stomach.。 ”
The old man admonished.
Li An nodded approvingly, looked at a child, and asked, "Uncle, this is your grandson!" It looks like he's five or six years old, and he's so strong. ”
"I'm six years old, and I'm very hot."
The old man mentioned his grandson, and his expression was very happy.
"Come, little baby, eat some candy, it's sweet, sweeter than well water."
As he spoke, Ang Lee took out the candy he had prepared and handed it to the six-year-old child.
The child looked at Ang Lee in a daze, looking a little vigilant, and did not reach out to pick up the candy that Ang Lee handed him.
"Take it! Child. ”
Li Ang directly put the candy in the child's pocket.
"That's embarrassing."
The old man was a little embarrassed.
"Haha! You can't drink water for nothing, isn't it, this is the reward, what else is here? Come, take them all, and give them to the children of the village. ”
Ang Lee generously took out more candy and distributed it to a few children.
After chatting and chatting, everyone became familiar with it, and the honest villagers did not doubt Li An's identity, and Li An was able to make up a good reason to make the villagers believe that they were businessmen.
"Yuanke, what are you selling?"
The old man asked curiously.
Li An opened his mouth and replied, "Uncle, do we sell a lot of goods?" However, they are almost all sold, and there are very few left, so you can go back to your hometown after a break. ”
"Oh, if there's a good fit, we can buy some."
The old man asked tentatively.
Li An said politely: "Since the old man has said so, then let the old man see the rest of our goods, which are all gadgets, and laugh." ”
After saying that, he beckoned and asked the guards to take down the goods from the horses.
Although the number of these goods is not large, there are many types, all kinds of gadgets, and I believe that people from all walks of life need them, for example, there are glass balls with bugs that children like, delicious sweets, small mirrors that women like, as well as head ropes, small jewelry, rouge gouache, etc., as well as cigarette holders, crutches and so on that are more popular with the elderly.
The cost of these goods is actually not high, but they are exquisite enough, and they are liked when they look at it, and they can be used as decorations.
"Oops! That's a lot of stuff! ”
The old man exclaimed, and seven or eight people behind him came up, looking very excited, and the children were even more greedy, and because the village was not far from the well, soon, more villagers rushed over.
People of different ages are interested in different products, they are picking and choosing, they are choosing their favorite products, even the old man just now chose a delicate wooden cigarette holder.
However, after a while of excitement, all the remaining adults, except for a few children, fell into anxiety, and although these interesting goods aroused their interest, they were poor farmers, and their surplus wealth was very limited, and they could not afford these things if they were very expensive.
Looking at the good things but not being able to afford them, the excitement of these people immediately turned into disappointment, although they have not yet asked about the price, but this is all obvious things, there is no need to ask at all, although they are countrymen, but adults still have the most basic knowledge, they know that these gadgets must be very valuable, at least, they feel that the price is not within their affordability.
The old man smacked his lips and said, "Everything is good, but I just don't know how much it costs?" ”
Li An said with a smile: "The price is not expensive, it is absolutely very fair, you can choose, I will be responsible for the expensive, haha!" ”
The old man smiled and asked, "Then I have to talk about a price too!" If the price is right, you can buy a little. ”
Li An nodded and said, "You should have a lot of souvenirs here!" Why don't you exchange it for souvenirs? You can use as many souvenirs as you think is appropriate. ”
"Oops! How can it be done, if we only give a little, won't the distant guest lose a lot. ”
The old man said suspiciously.
Lao Guo opened his mouth at this time and said: "These are tail goods, ninety percent of the goods have been sold, and they have made several times more money, even if they are all thrown away, it doesn't matter, what is there to lose, we who do business can still lose ourselves." ”
"That's okay, that's okay, you all hear it! You can exchange your souvenirs for something here, so let's go and get something at home! ”
The old man said, looked at Li An, and said, "This cigarette holder is good, keep it for me!" ”
Li An said with a smile: "Don't keep it, if the old man likes it, just take it away first, and give it to a friend." ”
"Okay, okay, I won't let the distant guest suffer, there are still a lot of valuable herbs at home, all of which are given to the distant guest."
The old man said, picked up the cigarette holder and went home.
It's all worthless gadgets, and Ang Lee naturally won't worry about them going back, such a little gadget is nothing.
Knowing that you can exchange your own souvenirs for these interesting gadgets, and that you still have the final say on how many souvenirs you give, this makes everyone in the village excited, this is simply a great thing that is born with pies, and it is a great good thing that cannot be encountered once in hundreds of years.
However, the villagers here are relatively simple, they are not willing to take advantage of others for no reason, they will pay according to their own cognition, they feel that they do not lose, others are not very losing, and they will never take other people's things for nothing.
Although these villagers don't have much money in their hands, they also have some valuable things, but these things can't be sold locally at all, and the price is relatively low, and they can only be sold at a good price when they are sold in big cities, and because of traffic restrictions, it is difficult for them to have too many opportunities to leave the village, so these valuable things are difficult to realize, if they become birds, they can fly to the big city at any time, and they will become much richer than now.
It didn't take long for the old man and many villagers to return, and they were holding all kinds of local products in their hands, some of them were ingredients, some were medicinal herbs, and some were like antiques, in short, they were all more valuable things.
"Uncle, this is a good Ganoderma lucidum! This is much more expensive than a cigarette holder. ”
Li An said.
This is the truth, in the pharmacy in the capital, the price of Ganoderma lucidum is relatively high, and the price of high-grade Ganoderma lucidum is even higher, and for gadgets such as cigarette holders, even if they are made of precious materials, the price is not expensive, but the countrymen have never seen such a chic, so they think it is more expensive.
"It's not expensive, it's picked on the mountain, and I heard that nobles like it."
The old man said.
Li An couldn't let the old man suffer, so he bent down to pick up the remaining cigarette holders and said, "These two jade cigarette holders, as well as these gadgets, are all for you." ”
"Oh yo, this Ganoderma lucidum can be exchanged for so much!"
The old man looked a little excited, and a little excited.
The rest of the villagers also took out the most valuable items in their homes, including medicinal herbs like Ganoderma lucidum, as well as better local products, in short, they are all better items.
And the gadgets that Li An took out were also divided by these villagers by one-third, more than twenty small mirrors, that was not left, the candy was gone unconsciously, and the banana chips The children ate a few, and felt that they had a good appetite, so they quickly divided it.
"Look at these kids, they're so cute."
Ang Lee said with a smile.
Lao Guo nodded and said, "This business, is it a loss or a profit!" ”
"Of course it's a steady profit, when have I ever lost it."
Ang Lee said with a smile.
According to the market price, in fact, Li An is at a loss, after all, the mirrors are not cheap, but according to the cost price, they are definitely earned, and the rare medicinal materials such as Ganoderma lucidum recovered are relatively expensive, which can completely offset the various gadgets taken by the villagers.
"These villagers are too honest, they only took a third of it, so many things, it doesn't hurt to take them all, hey! It's so unpretentious. ”
Ang Lee opened his mouth and sighed.
This is not false at all, according to Ang Lee's understanding of the poor, these guys will go over to grab the goods when the big truck rolls over, but now, there are so many interesting things on the ground, and there are so many left, the moral level of these villagers is really not low, which makes Li Ang a little impressed.
Under a willow tree next to the well, three young ladies are getting together to play, two of them have grabbed the small mirror, and the other little lady also wants to see herself in the mirror, so she went over to ask for it, and the two little ladies with mirrors in their hands are busy looking in the mirror, and playing with their hair, where are they willing to lend the treasure to others, so a chase is inevitable.
The chase between the little ladies is the most interesting, from time to time there will be a silver bell-like laughter, a very crisp sound, and this crisp laughter has a very good healing effect on Ang Lee, and it is very comfortable to listen to.
Maybe it was because they found that Li An was looking at themselves, the three little ladies shyly hid behind the willow tree, only occasionally showing half of their heads, obviously looking at Li An secretly, it seems that Li An, the uncle, is still quite attractive, and can also attract the attention of the little lady.
"Am I handsome?"
Lao Guo touched his white beard and looked at Li An suspiciously.
Li An smiled: "What do you think? The little lady must be looking at me, haha! ”
Lao Guo is joking, this Ang Lee naturally understands, this product is not old-hearted, and from time to time he can actually make a joke or something, which is very surprising.
The people of the village are too simple, although all the goods are taken casually, but all the villagers do not have a coax, everyone only takes what they need, and only one will be taken by them, such as the little lady likes the small mirror very much, a person is just to grab one, and will not rob more, it seems very orderly, this situation is very rare, which is enough to show that these villagers are very simple people.
"Uncle, is there still more than half of this? It's all for you, take it all! It's all divided! ”
Li An said generously.
"Yo, how does this work?"
The old man said embarrassedly.
"Uncle, there's nothing to be embarrassed about, it's troublesome to bring these things back, so I'll give them to you, there are so many local products, we don't lose anything, we don't lose anything."
Li An said.
"Then thank you, folks, thank you for this distant guest."
The old man said.
The villagers were all very grateful, and hurriedly thanked them, and almost knelt down, but it can be seen from their faces that they are very excited and very happy, after all, these rare little objects are their favorite gadgets, how can they be in a bad mood to get so many gadgets they like.
Looking at the excited expressions of the people, Ang Lee was also happy, and it was also a happy thing to see others happy.
"Lao Guo, such sweet well water, drink a little more!"
Li Ang tasted it again and felt that the taste was really good, but he didn't know what it tasted like after boiling.
"It's too cold to drink."
Lao Guo refused.
Seeing that the old man was afraid of the cold, Li An opened his mouth and said: "Uncle, the well water here is very sweet, after boiling, what does it taste like?" ”
The old man smiled: "The same, after the water is boiled, it is naturally sweet, now the weather is too cold, drinking too much cold water will make you upset, it is better to drink hot water, if a few guests do not dislike, go to my house!" I have boiling water in my house. ”
