MTL - The Sweet Little Fulang-Chapter 14

Rich people don't care if they eat fresh game for 12 taels, the picture is a rare one, and the venison is delicious, tender and nourishing, the price is really not expensive, if it is placed in Fucheng, it is estimated that 10 taels Silver can be won.

Shen Xuanqing thought about it on the way here. If the price is pressed too hard, as long as it is not less than five taels, it will be enough. With these five taels, at least half of the debt is owed.

And that middle-aged man was greedy for money, but he didn't dare to go too far. He was greedy for two taels in ten whole li, and he didn't dare to report eight taels as sixteen taels. It's a big deal to get out without this messenger.

In the rice shop, Shen Xuanqing returned the small name he borrowed to call the scattered silver to the shopkeeper. The rice shop was not far from the stall he and Lu Guzhan held, and Lu Gu was watching alone at the moment.

He said thank you and was about to leave, but the shopkeeper stopped him and asked how the rabbits were sold. Since he borrowed someone's appellation, he said a cheap price. Today, he got a lot of money, and a little less profit is nothing.

Since Shen Xuanqing entered the rice shop, Lu Gu glanced over there from time to time, and now he is relieved to see him come out.

"The shopkeeper has to take a look. It's almost time to go back." As soon as Shen Xuanqing came over, he packed up the bamboo basket and the things on the ground.

Lu Gu was obedient to his words, and followed into the rice shop.

In the end, these two small rabbits were sold for fifty cents. On weekdays, it would not be a problem to sell these two for seventy or eighty cents. After all, they were caught from the mountains, not common chickens and ducks. Now, if you sell two like that, you have one hundred copper coins.

The owner of the rice shop saw that he was selling at such a low price, and he smiled a little more on his already friendly face. He also said that if he got any wild game in the future, he could go to him and ask him for help even if he didn't buy it. The shopkeepers of other shops, if they want to buy rice, come here too, he will consider it cheaper.

Shen Xuanqing could still talk in the scene, both of them regarded each other as their customers, and it was not a disadvantage to have a familiar face with each other.

With a full eight taels of silver in his arms, Shen Xuanqing breathed a long sigh of relief. Only then did he really feel at ease, and a sense of joy immediately surged up. It was the first time for him to grow so big, even for the rest of the family. No one has ever made so much money in one go.

When he picked up the young deer in the mountains yesterday, he knew that this time he was called to luck, but he had not received any money at that time.

When the money was not in his hands, he seldom showed it, not only was he tight-lipped, but he was not even in a happy mood. This stemmed from an experience he had when he was eleven or twelve years old.

For ordinary people, if they get something valuable and want to sell it, they will definitely be overjoyed. Even if they know that the money is not revealed and cover up the news, they will be excited in private. Shen Xuanqing used to be the same.

He was still young at that time, and his physique was not as good as it is now. He learned craftsmanship from the old hunter for a year and a half, and one day when he was free, he wandered around the mountain by himself, alone without a dog, and called him The first time a rabbit was shot with a bow and arrow.

At the age of eleven or twelve, the bow and arrow hit the prey for the first time. He was naturally excited and ran to the master with the rabbit. The old hunter was not so dignified and solemn, but a kind old man with red cheeks. Said he was great.

When the hunter hit something, he was going to sell it for money. After taking it back and showing it to his family, Shen Xuanqing decided to go to the town and sell the rabbit, which was regarded as the beginning of his career as a hunter.

Everyone in the family said that he could sell it for at least 30 cents. He thought so too. Who would have thought that when he arrived in the town, the people who bought the rabbit would only pay 20 cents when he saw that he was just a rough kid.

He didn't want to sell and wanted to leave, but the rogue man took the rabbit in his hand and insisted on buying and selling, and the two almost got into a fight. He was an underage rogue at the time, and anyone who saw that he was going to suffer, beside him A few hawkers couldn't stand it any longer, and hurried forward to pull the rack, shouting that this was not bullying.

The rogue man was slaughtered by the crowd, and finally he was given five more coins.

Shen Xuanqing was full of thinking that he could sell 30 cents, but he only got 25 cents, so he frowned and went back. When the family asked, although he was relieved, he said that he was very promising if he could sell these. A scoundrel is nothing but a ruffian who bullies the weak, who will only bully the child and tell him not to get angry.

Wei Lanxiang deliberately steamed egg custard for him because he was bullied, and secretly gave him ten cents to buy preserved fruit snacks.

Fenggu Town has grown up, and they don't know that rogue. Even if they want to call back to ask for an explanation or vent their anger, they have nowhere to look.

Shen Xuanqing put it down later, but the comparison of joy and loss that day was so "tragic" that he had a long memory since then, and he didn't count the money until he got it, and he didn't want to count the money until he got it. Sheng Zhang, when he went out in the morning, he didn't tell his family how much deer could sell.

He and the rogue actually met once two years ago, near the tofu shop. He was just passing by, and he recognized the man with a **** mole on his face. The kid shook his head secretly, it turned out that he was really a useless bully who only picked the weak and bullied.

The child was playing by the river and caught two big fish. He used a straw rope to carry it to his home, but the rogue stopped the child and said he wanted to buy it. Hearing that he could exchange money for money, the child's eyes widened, and he was willing, but the rogue But only three cents.

This price can't fool a seven or eight-year-old child. When a child's mouth is pouted, he will bypass him. The rogue sees that he can't be deceived, and immediately grabs it.

Shen Xuanqing saw it clearly not far away, not to mention old revenge, just robbing a child is not something a man can do.

The past will not be mentioned again, this time he has got so much money, and his joy is unmatched by other things. He thought that the debt of 10 taels of silver would be saved until May next year, but now it will be soon.

As for Lu Gu, when he heard the eight taels of silver, he was incredulous. A deer could sell for so much money, and he couldn't count how many copper coins it would get. Of course, in the end, he saw that they were giving loose silver. , it is not a copper plate at all, only then did I know that I wanted to go wrong.

While unbelievable, he also knew that it was Shen Xuanqing's money, and he couldn't even fight with him.

But this didn't prevent the joy in his heart. Selfishness dictated that he would be happy to know that the Shen family had received so much money, and once he was happy, he would not beat or scold him.

When passing by the pastry shop, the shop had just opened, and the man was holding a square wooden tray and put various pastries on the cabinet one after another, and the sweet smell wafted out of it.

Lu Gu stopped with Shen Xuanqing.

"Wrap six pieces of white cloud cake." Shen Xuanqing took out a handful of copper coins from his sleeve, counted twenty and handed them to the man, before taking the oil-paper package from him.

Baiyun cake is more expensive. It is thin and thin for ten cents, but it is as delicate as congealed fat and white as clouds in the sky. It is sweet but not greasy after a bite.

This thing has been selling well in the town for the past two years. Those with a little money in the countryside will learn the food and clothing in the town, which makes the villagers envious. If anyone has spare money to buy this and go back, it will be very face.

Lu Gu had seen Lu Wen eat this, two or three pieces of Baiyun cake in a cup of tea, Lu Wen had to cover his mouth with a handkerchief while he was eating. Even looking at it was guarded by Du Hehua, and was sent to wash clothes by the river.

In fact, he is not greedy for this kind of food, because greed is useless, it will only make people uncomfortable, it is better to think of other things.

Shen Xuanqing turned around from the door of the pastry shop, glanced at his skinny little husband who didn't like to talk, handed over the oiled paper bag, and said, "Go back and share with the mother and the others."

Lu Gu was so flattered, even if he followed Shen Xuanqing out of town, he still couldn't believe it, and carefully grasped the string on the oiled paper bag.

It's very light, but at this point it costs twenty cents, and he is becoming more cautious.

On the way back, Shen Xuanqing walked slowly, and Lu Gu didn't have to hurry. When the two arrived at Anjia Village, this time they were coming from the direction of the town, so they could only enter from the front of the village.

The sun has come out early, and the people who should go to the ground have already gone to the ground. Most of the families are women, children, and the elderly.

The door to the Lu family's courtyard was half-open, but no one was in the courtyard, and no movement was heard inside. Lu Gu took a look and then restrained, lowered his eyebrows and said nothing, no one knew what he was thinking.

Shen Xuanqing noticed his expression, but when he saw that he didn't hesitate, he felt at ease. People like Du Hehua and Lu Daxiang are not worth dealing with. If there is no interest involved, it would be fine. Once money is involved, according to Du Hehua's face, it will definitely be Will be messing around, the more distant the better.

When people from Anjia Village saw Lu Gu, they knew that he had been sold to Qingxi Village, and the people who were talking stopped abruptly and only watched him walk over with their eyes.

Lu Gu has a timid temperament. Although he is not very neat, he is not awkward or weird. In the past, when he was in the village, every aunt and grandmother would whisper. In the eyes of the villagers, he was a little boring because he didn't like to talk, but he was still well-behaved.

Now that he is being looked at like this, he hesitates even if he wants to call someone, and since he has already walked over, how can he open his mouth.

In the end, he met the always cheerful Aunt Qin and asked him where he came from. It was no different from treating him in the past, so he opened his mouth and called someone, saying he came from the town.

Aunt Qin couldn't help but take a look at Shen Xuanqing. Because of Lu Gu, Shen Xuanqing called auntie with him. Aunt Qin was a little surprised, but she responded with a smile, and when she heard the family calling her again, she hurriedly turned to Lu Gu. The two said, "Auntie has something to do, so I won't let you two talk."

Such a homely conversation made Lu Gu recover from the discomfort just now.

The herbalist was drying the herbs in the yard, and he was very satisfied to see that he remembered the days, at least he was concerned about the injury.

Country people don't have money in their hands, so injuries and illnesses are the most taboo. Minor illnesses and disasters can be dealt with, and it's fine, but there are always people who wait until they don't heal, and tell him that this barefooted man always shakes his head.

After removing the linen cloth from Lu Gu's head, Wang Langzhong nodded and said, "It's alright, the injury has healed, no need to wrap it again, just take the medicine for a few more days."

"Remember that the skin there is still thin, and you must never touch it again." He told Lu Gu while dispensing the herbs.

This time, I took the medicine for five days. According to what Wang Langzhong said, I will check the pulse again after eating. If there is no more deficiency of qi and blood inside, I don’t need to take medicine.

The wound medicine on Lu Gu's head was picked by Wang Langzhong himself. It was not a precious medicinal material. It cost only eight cents for two packages. He didn't ask for it.

And Lu Gu has to collect money for the medicine, because in the formula, in addition to the medicinal materials he picked himself, there are also money collected from others.

Every time a peasant came to see a doctor, Wang Langzhong tried his best to use the price as cheap as possible and the medicines were more effective, so they could be cheaper, but this time, Lu Gushang bled a lot from his forehead, and because of his weakness, he fainted. I had to add an expensive one to the medicine. One day's worth of medicine cost 70 wen, and the last seven days' medicine cost 490 wen.

However, for the five days of medicine, he took away the expensive medicinal materials and replaced them with other medicines. It was only forty cents a day. In the end, he collected Shen Xuanqing six hundred and fifty cents in total.

People often say that seeing a doctor will bring down the family. When Lu Gu saw that he had spent so much money on Shen Xuanqing, he was overwhelmed with fright and did not dare to let out the air.
