Mountain People

Gu Shuixiu made up her mind, and the smile on her face deepened. Dong Chenghu gave her courage, and her words became a lot harder, "Guest officer, how are you going to buy it? If you only buy pork, It costs thirty-five cents per catty, and if you want to buy the whole boar, it costs thirty cents a catty.”

Dong Chenghu was completely stunned when he heard the words, how could Shuixiu say the price so high, would it scare people away? I saw the man in brocade furrow his brows, Dong Chenghu thought to himself, it's over, it seems that he scared people away.

"Such a big boar costs forty-five yuan per pound at Tianranju, which is not expensive, but how can I be sure that this boar is fresh?"

The words of the man in the brocade made Gu Shuixiu see Yinzi beckoning in front of her, and immediately asked Dong Chenghu to cut a big hole in the wild boar on the spot.

What's more, we will send them out immediately after hunting, without a moment's delay, just to earn more hard money and ensure that we will not cheat you. "

The man in brocade squinted at Gu Shuixiu and nodded his head in appreciation, "The girl is really smart, for her hard-earned money, I have to buy this wild boar, can you? Help me deliver the pig to the house?"

Dong Chenghu nodded fiercely, "No problem, we'll deliver it now."

Gu Shuixiu and Dong Chenghu happily followed the man in the brocade, and before leaving, they did not forget to give the aunt five coins and thank the aunt for her help.

Auntie wanted to resign, but Gu Shuixiu ran away, and the vendor next to her said enviously, "As expected, good intentions are rewarded. After a while, there will be five more coppers, so I can cut some meat and go back to improve it. It's time for dinner."

Gu Shuixiu and his wife followed the middle-aged man around several streets, and finally entered a quiet alley.

The middle-aged man stopped at a back door, patted twice, a middle-aged woman opened the door vigilantly, and when she saw it was a middle-aged man, she immediately said respectfully: "Steward Zhang, you Come back, come in quickly."

Dong Chenghu carried the wild boar and followed behind, the middle-aged woman looked at Gu Shuixiu and his wife, and a look of contempt flashed in her eyes.

"It's here, just carry the wild boar in and put it there. It's nine taels of silver, and you've put it away. Next time you have such game, bring it here, and I'll tell you to check it out. Aunt Li from the door, she will bring you to see me."

Butler Zhang politely sent Dong Chenghu and his wife out.

Aunt Li asked a little puzzled: "Steward Zhang, why are these poor couples worthy of your personal gifts? You are too flattering to them."

Aunt Li wanted to say something, but received a stern warning from Butler Zhang.

Zhang Mansion is waiting."

Aunt Li was startled and quickly admitted her mistake, not daring to say anything else.

Gu Shuixiu was in such a good mood with nine taels of silver, she started humming while walking.

Dong Chenghu hasn't recovered from the huge surprise, his face is a little impressive, "This Linhai County is really different from our place, I just thought that Butler Zhang would think that we sell too expensive In the end, people think it's cheap, don't rich people treat money like money now?"

Dong Chenghu looked puzzled.

"This is not something we should worry about. This is the first time I have seen so much silver money when I am so old. Let's go and buy things?"

Dong Chenghu followed the excited Gu Shuixiu, "Shuixiu, I'm not giving you thirty taels, how come you haven't seen so much money?"

"That's different. The thirty taels were saved by you, and the nine taels of silver are half of my credit. It's different." Gu Shuixiu pouted, and said seriously.

Dong Chenghu muttered, "It's not all yours." Worried that Gu Shuixiu would hear, he quickly took her to the street to buy things.

Although the two made a lot of money, the things in Linhai County are also more expensive. The two ran several shops in the streets and alleys, and finally found a small iron in the deep alleys. Shop bought a relatively high cost-effective iron pot, kitchen knife.

Gu Shuixiu saw that this shop was small, but the sparrow was small, but it had all the internal organs, including an axe and a hoe, and immediately asked Dong Chenghu to buy another hoe, a sickle, and a machete. A sharp knife for self-defense.

It costs 800 bucks for a wok, 500 bucks for a kitchen knife, 500 bucks for a hoe, 200 bucks for a sickle, 200 bucks for a machete, and 100 bucks for a pocket knife. Wen, when Gu Shuixiu paid the money, her hands were shaking, and she sighed in her heart that the money was really not enough.

After leaving the blacksmith shop, the two went to the grocery store, where they bought some lard, salt, sugar, wine, candles, pots, tableware, and simple toiletries , The grocery store also sells pancreas for bathing.

Dong Chenghu saw that Gu Shuixiu had been researching pancreas, thought she liked it, and bought two pieces boldly.

Gu Shuixiu's heart twitched, and she wanted to scold Dong Chenghu for being a prodigal. Seeing Dong Chenghu's smile, he swallowed the words.

Expensive stuff.

Going out of the grocery store, Gu Shuixiu went to another seven hundred pennies. This time it cost three taels of silver.

Gu Shuixiu thought that she had to buy clothes and food, and immediately grabbed her purse.

I tried it, and there are clothes and bedding, all of which have to be re-purchased, so we don’t know if the money is enough, and we can’t spend all the money, we must save some for emergency use…”

Gu Shuixiu rambled in Dong Chenghu's ear for a long time, Dong Chenghu was not impatient, but listened with relish, he cherished the breath of this life very much.

"It's fine, if I don't have enough money to spend, I'll go hunting, and then I can exchange money." With this precedent, Dong Chenghu found himself suddenly enlightened, his heart became clearer, and he was more certain that he could let Gu Shuixiu lived a good life.

The two circled around a few times, and finally asked a relatively civilian cloth house.

The second in the store didn't show any disgust when seeing Gu Shuixiu and the two of them, but warmly welcomed them.

"Guest, I don't know what you want to buy? We just have a batch of damp cotton cloth for sale at a low price. Do you want to take a look. If you don't like it, we also have new linen cloth. The color and texture are the first in our Linhai County."

Gu Shuixiu and his wife are not well dressed, try to recommend cheap and durable fabrics for them.
