Chapter 108: The House on the Other Side

Business is finally getting better, and the garment shop opened by the eldest sister is also booming, and everything has been going smoothly recently. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Donald sat comfortably under the big tree in front of the restaurant, his eyes closed to recuperate.

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves on the road, Donald opened his eyes and saw the man who had bought the car coming over. Tang Lao'er hurriedly got up and greeted him.

There was a straw curtain on the carriage, and it was impossible to tell what it contained, but it looked very heavy. Tang Lao'er smiled: "What did you bring to the city to sell?" It's a good deal, and every time I see you, I become rich. ”

The man smiled: "It's a cart of tender ginger, and it's good or bad to use it for a few dollars when you take it to the city." Our ginger there is a little famous, called Zhang Liang Jiang, I heard that Zhang Liang led the troops to fight, and this Jiang saved his life. ”

The local specialties of these places often pull a famous figure in history as a banner, and it is not true. In this era, principles are also emphasized, not made up randomly, such as Zhang Liangjiang, at least Zhang Liang really stayed in that place in history, as for other statements, there are many attachments. When it comes to future generations, it is even more outrageous, it is completely nonsense, and he likes to have a relationship with the emperor the most. What emperor went out of the palace privately, which emperor went to the south of the Yangtze River, and was full of praise, in fact, the emperor lived all his life and never even went out of the palace. There is no way, and the people who made up the story later only knew that so many emperors were ancient celebrities. Originally, this kind of attachment also had the positive meaning of disseminating historical knowledge, but the nonsense in the back did not even have this meaning, it was purely a means of pulling the tiger skin and pulling the banner, making up historical allusions, and profiteers.

Donald lifted the corner of the straw curtain, took out a sprig of tender ginger, looked at it in his hand, and praised: "It's really a good ginger!" ”

The man said: "My husband is a restaurant, so I can take a few branches and keep them for use." These native products are worth a few copper coins in the city, and the countryside is not worth anything, and they are planted in the field. ”

Anyway, the store can use it, and Tang Lao'er has this meaning, so he called the little guy over, took a small bag of ginger from the car, and took it to the back kitchen. Clapped his hands and slapped off the dirt on his hands, Donald said to the man: "I won't count the money with you anymore, come and drink a bowl of wine and eat two pieces of meat to fill your stomach, I will invite you back." ”

The man was hungry, and he was originally going to use some wine and rice here at Tang Lao'er, but he was not polite at the moment. He unloaded the horse from the cart and tied it to the side, pulled it under the tree, and sat down on a table and stool.

The little guy served the wine, and the man took two sips and ate a piece of meat. Tang Lao'er left and right, sat down and said some homely things.

"This year's weather, when it's hot, there's nowhere to hide, and it can heat up to death. Let's cool down for two days, and it rains every day, as if the sky is leaking. I've lived for decades, and it's the first time I've encountered this kind of strange weather. ”

The man chewed the meat in his mouth, listened to Donald Lao'er's words and nodded repeatedly: "Isn't it, we are better there, there have been a few rains in the spring." I heard that Henan Province has been dry for half a year this year, and there is no harvest in the ground. ”

"Alas, in a disaster year, there was a drought in the first half of the year, a flood in the second half of the year, and there was no good life for farming. Fortunately, the government had a conscience, exempted this year's summer tax, and also borrowed grain from poor peasant households, saying that they would pay it back next year, but no one starved to death. ”

Speaking of this year's disaster, the two of them had countless words to say, and the man unknowingly entered his stomach with a bowl of wine.

Tang Lao'er was in a good mood, so he asked the little maid to take another bowl, and said to the man: "Use some more, you are not in a hurry at this time." ”

After a few words, the man still took the bowl of wine and continued to sit there drinking and talking to Tang Lao'er.

Tang Lao'er said: "Fortunately, this annoying summer is about to pass, just wait until autumn." You have a lot of local products in the mountains, and you have this car, and you can earn a lot of copper money this year. ”

"Haha, sir, you're guessing wrong! When autumn comes, I won't sell local produce to the city! ”

Tang Lao'er was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "Why didn't you do such a good business?" Got something going on at home? ”

The man shook his head again and again: "No, it's because there is a better business." Do you know that we have planted countless cotton in Ruzhou and Caizhou to the south. A few days ago, the field work came to the door, and those of us who had cars helped to transport cotton to Luoyang City when the cotton harvest season began! ”

"Cotton, I have often heard people say this year, my eldest sister opened a shop to make cotton clothes for people, but she never knew what it looked like. Tell me, does this cotton really look like a flower? ”

"We don't plant there, so how do we know? But I heard that it really looks like a flower, and it looks pretty good. ”

Tang Lao'er sighed for a while, and couldn't understand how to weave clothes with flowers, so he simply didn't want to, and asked the man: "Since you don't plant there, how can the camp and field affairs find you to transport it?" ”

"Our home is down the road south, so it's convenient. The cotton used in the fields was transported along the Ru River to Ruzhou, and then transported by car to Luoyang City. Uncle, I've heard that there will be countless carts passing by you, and when the time comes, you need to prepare more wine and meat! ”

"Enough, enough." Tang Lao'er nodded again and again, "This year, my business here has improved, and there are more merchants on the way south, but it can't be compared with last year, there is no shortage of wine and meat." ”

In Tang Lao'er's heart, how many more people do you think there will be? Are you still afraid of big-bellied customers? The man just heard that all the people who had cars near him had joined in, and he knew that there were many people, but it was impossible to see how much.

There is also a big tree on the other side of the road, and Du Er's restaurant also has tables and stools under the tree. It's just that his restaurant has always been a rich man's business, the price of wine and meat is inflated, and no one sits there on the tables and stools.

At this time, only Du Ertu Liang occupied a table and stool, accompanied by a guest opposite. The guest was dressed in brown, and the boss had a Fan Yang hat on his head, covering most of his face, and he couldn't see what he looked like.

Du Er took a sip of wine, looked at the other side of the road and took a sip: "It's really unreasonable, that old man's business is actually getting better!" ”

The guest on the opposite side said coldly: "You better not worry about this yet, you can only earn a few copper coins by selling dozens of bowls of wine a day?" Honestly made this deal with our brothers, it is enough for you to be rich for a lifetime! ”

"What Oshishi said is that the copper coins in the village are piled up, and we can just take some and spend them for a lifetime." Du Er put on a smiling face. "But, Absashi, I haven't treated you badly these days, and what else can't trust me? You just live in my house, can you let my father go home? He was too old to suffer. ”

Feng Zhisi snorted coldly: "Don't worry, he lives with us, has wine and meat, and lives a leisurely life." When this transaction is completed, I guarantee that you will be returned alive! ”

A cold light flashed in Du Er's eyes, but he was helpless, he was not qualified enough to be ruthless with these people.
