Chapter Fifty-Three: Finding Someone (1)

The air is fresh after the rain, and the summer heat has gone away for a moment or two.

Dayu was impatient to sit on the carriage, bouncing around like a bullet, so he patiently helped Qin Shumei onto the carriage, while he followed on foot beside the carriage, with his long legs spread out and his steps as fast as flying.

In order to make it easier to find someone, Qin Shumei did not take into account the tradition of female relatives not showing up, and simply hung up the curtains on both sides of the car. She could clearly see the scene on both sides while sitting in the car.

They went out early and walked through a few streets, just in time to catch up with the morning market in Wenliang City. All kinds of food and gadgets were fresh. Although the market was not crowded, it was at least better than what they saw when they first entered the city.

The scene is much livelier.

The roots of the cucumber are green, with dense white thorns on them, and the roots are dotted with bright yellow cucumber flowers. The tomatoes are bright red, plump and moist, and you can just imagine how sweet and sour they are inside. I don’t know.

Which restaurant has freshly baked pancakes? The rich aroma of noodles and crispy caramel aroma are intertwined, constantly seduce the hungry stomachs of passers-by.

There were adults carrying young children on their backs to select fruits and vegetables at the vegetable stall. The woman standing next to her was carrying a vegetable basket with a gentle face. She would pick up which ones the children pointed to with their short, fat and cute fingers and put them in the basket.

There are also buyers and sellers who can't stop bargaining, and the voices get louder and louder as they go on, but stop abruptly when it sounds like they are about to quarrel. The buyers take away the goods with satisfaction, and the sellers happily sit in the stall and count the coins.

The half-grown child was running around with a piece of fruit in his hand, chasing a bunch of greedy little carrot heads, and everywhere he passed there was a burst of chickens and dogs.

This is the most familiar scent in the world, and it is the most reassuring sight and sound no matter where in the world.

Qin Shumei looked at it, and the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously.

On the other hand, Dayu's eyebrows were furrowed and his expression was complicated, which was somewhat incompatible with this scene of living and working in peace and contentment.

"The people of Yin are really lucky."

What he muttered unconsciously was caught by Qin Shumei.

"How do you say this?"

Seeing her questioning look, Dayu glanced away.

"Isn't it a good life to be born in a fertile plain land with abundant products?"

"No matter how vast a plain is, it may take a lot of effort to cultivate it, and no matter how abundant the products are, it still depends on people's hard work. This has nothing to do with whether the life is good or not. Good lives are earned by people."

Food, melons and fruits will not fall from the sky. No matter how good the land is, it will still be watered by sweat. This year is good. It seems that I have no worries about eating and drinking, and everything will be harvested. But if God is angry, let him do whatever he wants.

The prosperous and prosperous age, that is to say, it is gone.

"It's earned by people. Huh, that's putting it lightly."

Dayu took out a noodle cake from his arms, which he took from the inn before leaving.

"Mrs. Qin, do you know how much this cake is worth in Northern Xinjiang?"

It's the most common dough-based pancake made. To call it a pancake is actually a bit high-spirited.

Add water to flour and knead it into a flat dough. Whether you bake it, bake it, or steam it, as long as it is cooked in any method. Rich people who have the conditions only use white flour, and some even add some lard and salt.

It looks somewhat similar to the sesame cakes of previous lives. If you don't have the conditions, you can add some mixed flour, bran or bran into it.

The one on Dayu's hand is bigger than a palm. Although it is mostly made of white flour, some sorghum flour is also added, and there is no lard or salt. It will only cost a penny at most if it is placed in the market.

After analyzing it in her mind, Qin Shumei loosened her curled fist and silently extended an index finger.

"A penny?"

The corners of Dayu's mouth twitched, trying to pull out a smile, but the smile was covered under his thick beard and fell in Qin Shu's eyebrows. Only his thick beard moved.

"How can money be compared with food? In a disaster year, even ten taels of silver may not be able to buy a piece of cake. After all, noodles can satisfy your hunger, but money can't."

"This cake is worth at least one life." Dayu said in a serious tone.

"Further north from Ewenk, the land is barren and not a single blade of grass grows. In winter, the cold winds are about to peel off a layer of people's skin. In summer, the heat is unbearable and the ground is so dry that it cracks. We call the people there 'Mara', which means,

Evil ghost."

"The funny thing is that there are so many of them. They have no food to eat and cannot hunt animals, so they go south to rob them. If they can't, they share them with other people and eat them."

Qin Shumei's body trembled slightly, and there was a chill in the back of her neck.

"As soon as Ewenki men can ride a horse firmly, they can resist foreign invasion. Even women can make weapons to protect themselves. Not only that, they also have to hunt and farm, which is such a hard life!"

"No one of the ethnic groups in northern Xinjiang is better than the other. Compared with the prosperity of Da Yin, our life is in dire straits. Your emperor has controlled the gold and silver mountains and refused to give up a single point for many years. Now with

When we arrived, he greeted us with a smile and promised to open some kind of mutual trade..."

After Dayu spoke, it didn't seem like he was talking to Qin Shumei, but more like talking to himself. His muscles tightened, and his whole body revealed a sense of danger.

Qin Shumei had never experienced such a tragic experience in her entire life. She opened her mouth several times but closed it, not knowing how to persuade her.

In Dayu's eyes, she was a person born in Rome. How could she persuade others to do good without suffering from others? No matter how much she tried to change the impression of Yin Guo in Dayu's heart, it was in vain for him to hold on to the knot in his heart. Only Ewenki

Only when Beijiang gets better can the pain in his heart be relieved.

While the two were silent, the carriage jolted slightly, and then moved smoothly and smoothly. She had only experienced such good road conditions when riding in a prison car in the capital.

Qin Shumei poked her head out, and saw that the carriage had already driven onto a wide stone road. Behind the carriage was the street sign that it had just passed, with the three characters "Ren Zheng Street" on it.

Qin Shumei curled her lips, this rich area is different, the privileged class, the infrastructure is very good, even the floors are so smooth.

The quality of the houses on both sides of the road has also improved qualitatively. A few old houses have been added here and there among the large blue brick houses. Occasionally, I pass by a few, and some even have plaques hanging in front of their doors. The doors are grand and majestic.

"We're here, how to find it?"

Dayu found a street corner and stopped the carriage, paid a copper coin to let a few young men chat with him to watch over him, and helped Qin Shumei down.

"Are the husband and wife looking for someone or a place?"

The leading young man on the street is very smart, with big black and white eyes, and his eyes are like black mercury, and they spin happily.

"If you are looking for people and land, why don't you ask us? We are well-informed in this area. We lived here before many wealthy families moved here. Well, our home is over there."

He pointed at a group of old houses, which seemed a bit crowded and awkward among the large mansions. Some of the walls had fallen off and the plants climbing up the walls showed their age.

Originally, this house should be a bit sad to talk about, but when it came out of the young man's mouth, he felt a sense of pride in "his old home". Not only that, this house also added credibility to his words.

"Even if we don't know, if we young ones can find out for you two, won't it be faster than you can find them yourself? There are more than just these of our brothers, and they are all waiting elsewhere!"

At such a young age, the boy said these words in a very old-fashioned way, which made people want to laugh.

Dayu thought they were naughty and not quite used to this kind of business, so he simply turned his back on them.

Qin Shumei thought she could give it a try. With her current body, it was difficult to stand for a long time, and knocking on the door from door to door was even more impossible. These little energy beans can be called ancient cameras. They were running around outside all day long, almost

Nothing can escape their eyes. If there are more helpers like this, wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort?

"Tell me the number."

She leaned against the car, her voice was a little lazy, she looked at the boy with a smile, and she was a little curious about how much he would ask for.

The few teenagers did not expect that she would really ask for the price. After all, there were few outsiders coming to Wenliang City, and they rarely did this business. The few people exchanged eyebrows for a while, and the leader swallowed, his eyes like mercury beads fixed.

Looked at Qin Shumei.

"Fifty...fifty cents!"

He was afraid that it would be too much, so he quickly added one more sentence.

"If you can't find it, don't ask for your wife's money. After all, we have many brothers, and each of us can only get a few cents."

The young man spread his hands. "It can't be any less. If it's less, we won't have the strength to run."

There are five or six little carrot heads in front of me. If there are five or six more, each person will cost less than five cents. This asking price is still reasonable.

Qin Shumei subconsciously reached for the money, but she reached into her purse and found nothing. All her money was used to rent a carriage, and now she only had less than ten coins.

It’s only when the money is used that you’ll regret it!

Although there are still a few pearls left, the young man may not know the goods. Although the banknote is light, due to the lack of banks in Wenliang City, its value is only worth a piece of scrap paper of slightly better quality. Compared with circulation, there is nothing more valuable than cash.

convenient.

Qin Shumei was so cruel that she pulled out a small silver hairpin from her head.

This silver hairpin was forced into her head by Tao Jiajia before she left. This girl was too sad when they were separated, maybe to express her reluctance, so when she inserted it, she used very strong force. This silver hairpin

It was stuck tightly in her hair, as if it had taken root.

Qin Shumei recalled what Tao Jiajia, the crow, said when she put a hairpin in her mouth. "This is made of sterling silver. If you need money urgently, it can be used for a while." This time her words really came true.

After being kidnapped and beaten, this silver hairpin is still firmly stuck in her hair. It is the only ornament on her head now.

Qin Shumei placed the hairpin in the young man's hand.

"The whole hairpin is made of sterling silver, and it's definitely worth fifty cents. I'm in a hurry to find the person, and I don't have time to go into the pawn shop to talk about it. After the job is done, you can exchange it for more."

The young man felt the weight in his hand, and his eyes opened wide, as if stars were popping out of his eyes.

After hearing Qin Shumei's appearance description and the basic information provided, the teenagers were eager to try and gear up.

"Madam, just wait and see!"

The few teenagers dispersed like birds, split up and disappeared at various street corners in an instant. Now that the business was big, they did not forget the small business they had done before, and dutifully left one person behind to help look after the car.

"Take advantage of yourself."

Dayu spat, looking down on Qin Shumei's behavior. Seeing that she could hardly stand, he stretched out his hand as big as a cattail leaf fan, drove Qin Shumei into the carriage, and took a nap against the carriage with his eyes closed.

"I think my wife seems to be sick. Why don't you go to the hospital first? It's not far from here. You can get there by walking three streets."

The little kid left behind was younger and had a few stains on his bun-like face, but he didn't care. He wiped his nose with his sleeve a few times, then lifted up the car window and looked in.

"I just have some superficial wounds on my body. They're not harmful. I'll just take care of them and they'll be fine."

Qin Shumei could hear the child's belly ringing like a drum through the car wall. She broke off a piece of her cake and handed it to him. The child smiled shyly and took it sheepishly, hesitantly refusing her invitation to him.

He got into the car and sat in the car, smiling silly through the car window, and eating cakes with Qin Shumei opposite each other.

"There is no one who suffers from mulberry. Isn't it more important for Liangzi to find someone than to cure mulberry himself?"

The child's mouth was full of cakes and he could not speak clearly clearly. He had to say one sentence several times before Qin Shumei understood it.

"yes."

Qin Shumei smiled and gently poked the little clever guy.

"Finding him is more important than healing my own injuries."
