Chapter 55 Not a good person

Lu Shaoqian carried one hundred taels of silver in his arms and excitedly led Lin Fuyue to the largest seed store in the county.

He thought that one hundred taels of silver could buy a lot of seeds. When he bought the seeds, he realized how insignificant one hundred taels was.

Lin Fuyue needed a lot of seeds. As soon as she entered the store, she said loudly to the old man in the store.

"Shopkeeper, you have corn, wheat, sorghum, peanuts, soybeans, eggplants, tomatoes, green beans, pumpkins, peppers, radishes, cabbage..."

"I can understand the seeds that the little lady reported, but I can't understand the ones that I can't understand."

"The shopkeeper, give me one hundred catties each of corn, wheat, sorghum, and peanuts, fifty catties each of soybeans, peas, and mung beans, and one catty of all other seeds."

"Okay, please wait a moment, little lady. I'll calculate the total amount of money and pay the money before weighing the seeds for you."

The shopkeeper usually doesn't collect money first and then weigh it, but these two people bought too many seeds.

There were so many that the shopkeeper felt it was unreal and he thought he was dreaming!

He usually sells a few kilograms of seeds a day at most. When these two people came in, they didn't talk much and asked for hundreds of kilograms of seeds.

Moreover, this man's skin was as black as coal, and every pore in his body exuded a strong aura of violence.

He almost had the words "I'm not a good person" engraved directly on his forehead.

If Lu Shaoqian knew that the shopkeeper thought of him this way, he would definitely beat his head.

At this time, he was in a very good mood. He should be the gentlest he has been in so many years, okay?

"Okay, let the shopkeeper take care of it first," Lin Fuyue said nonchalantly.

She didn't know the rules for buying seeds here, and she didn't even know that her behavior had frightened the shopkeeper.

"The young lady asked for a total of forty-one kinds of seeds, totaling 482 kilograms. I will give you a discount and charge you a total of 103 taels of silver."

The shopkeeper himself was shocked by this number, let alone Lu Shaoqian!

"What?" Lu Shaoqian was shocked: "Your seeds are so expensive?"

It’s not that he is reluctant to part with it, but he only has one hundred taels. Where can he get three taels of silver?

The old man selling seeds shook his head and sighed: "To tell you the truth, these seeds are given to you at the cheapest price. I really don't charge you any money."

"That's it..."

It seems that it is completely impossible to raise three taels in a short period of time.

When the shopkeeper saw them like this, he thought they were short of a lot of money, so he persuaded them.

"Young man, if there is really no other way, I advise you to go home. After all, this is the cheapest option."

"I...I didn't mean that." Lu Shaoqian didn't know what to say.

"Thank you for reminding me, old man. We are only three taels short of silver. Could you please help me reduce some of the vegetable seeds of the east melons and pumpkins? We only bring out a hundred taels of silver."

When the old man selling seeds heard that he had received one hundred taels of silver, his attitude immediately changed 360 degrees.

"It's easy to say, the tomato seeds are from outside. They are very expensive. You can reduce them by half..."

After talking about it for a long time, Lin Fuyue didn't want to think about what to subtract.

He was very angry and shouted to his son and daughter-in-law to come out and weigh the seeds and pack them. He was very enthusiastic.

Lu Shaoqian:......

He just asked, and the old man glared at him and almost drove him away.

When his wife says a few words, the old man smiles and flatters her?

"Little lady, you bought so many seeds at one time, right? You bought them for people in the village. We collected money and asked you to come to the county to buy seeds, right?"

The old man was in a very good mood. His two sons and daughter-in-law were working, so he directed them while talking to Lin Fuyue.

"Yes, everyone said that they pooled their money and came to the county to buy seeds, which are much cheaper than those in our town."

Lin Fuyue opened her eyes and told lies. She was too embarrassed to tell the old man who sold the seeds.

She is now a bandit who occupies the mountain as the king, so she must have grown all the seeds herself to eat.

"That's for sure. Everything in the county is much cheaper than in the town. Do you want my son to take you to the town later?"

Lin Fuyue: "..."

Is there such a good thing? She is still thinking about how to move hundreds of pounds back!

"Yes, that's great. I'm such a good man. I have some biscuits here for you to try. If they taste good, I can give some to your grandson."

She took the bag off Lu Shaoqian's back, grabbed a handful of biscuits and gave them to the old man selling seeds.

When Lin Fuyue saw others showing some kindness to her, she would return the favor.

"It's so delicious, so crispy and fragrant. Where did you buy it, little lady?" The old man ate three slices in a row.

"Our relatives brought it back from Yanjing. Since you like it, let me share some with you."

Lin Fuyue didn't dare to tell the truth. If she told him that she did it, what if the old man asked her to do it for him?

Now she just wants to go back to the mountains to plant crops. They only have food for more than two months. If they don't rush to plant, what will they eat by then?

Lu Shaoqian listened to his wife's words and said everything was perfect. If it were him, he might not be so cautious.

Lin Fuyue quickly grabbed about a kilogram of biscuits and handed them to the old man.

After all, they said they would give them a ride in a carriage, so they had to give it to them no matter how reluctant they were. They didn't have the money to rent an ox cart.

Looking at the golden biscuits in front of me, I savor the sweet and delicious taste in my mouth.

The old man took the biscuit from Lin Fuyue's hand with a smile and thanked him very politely: "Thank you, little lady."

"You're welcome. You said you would send us to town, which is what we should do." Lin Fuyue smiled slightly and emphasized the matter of sending them.

The old man ate a few more biscuits one after another, and felt the fragrance linger in his mouth. He praised: "It's delicious, it's really delicious! It's better than any pastry I've ever eaten before."

"Then eat more." Lin Fuyue said softly, regardless of giving him only one pound.

When his children and grandchildren heard his praise, they also gathered around and looked at the old man eagerly, but did not take the initiative to get it.

"Dad, is it delicious? Why don't you leave some more for us?" the boss said, rubbing his hands.

"What a beautiful thought. Of course, such delicious food is only for me and my grandson to eat. You can only taste one piece."

After saying that, the old man stuffed the biscuits in his hand into the mouths of his children and grandchildren, one for each of them.

"Ouch...it's so delicious..."

"Hmm...it's so sweet...it tastes better than the ones sold in our county."

“I’ve never had such a delicious pastry, it’s incredible.”

The children and grandchildren acted as if they didn't need any money, and they just opened their mouths, thinking that their grandfather (father) would give them a few more dollars.

"Does this need to be said? I'm from Yanjing, how can it not be delicious? Go, go, get to work quickly."

The old man said with a proud face, as if he bought these biscuits from Yanjing.

Lin Fuyue was so amused that her eyebrows were filled with smiles.
