One or two branches of plum outside the bamboo

Chapter 21 Preparation
The inside of the market is much bigger than the outside.

In addition to the small store, on the other side is a larger warehouse.

There are not only a lot of people around the warehouse, but also a lot of cars. There are also people who are called above, and people who move things... The spacious road is full of people and cars.

The two children strayed into the warehouse group and were quickly pushed out.

Yan Qingzhi has never had such an experience. She has already started online shopping in later generations. Although online shopping takes a long time to receive goods, it is indeed an extremely convenient choice for lazy people and those who want to find some exotic goods.

Too bad that doesn't have much to do with them.

This kind of thing may happen in the future.

Yan Qingzhi dragged her younger brother and walked among the pedestrians with the basket on her back, inquiring and asking, and it took a while to find the shop she needed.

Lifting the heavy door curtain and stepping over the high threshold, the sister and brother entered the store.

The floor here is covered with white stone from Lincheng, which makes the room seem to be very bright and bright.

The tall counter was there, and there were a lot of things on the shelves at the back. When they entered the door, there was a small but burly and honest-looking boss who was making bills with a crackling, and a young woman. The man, wearing a cotton robe with blue background and a sackcloth apron, was greeting guests there.

When the boss saw the two children who entered the door, he couldn't help but despise them.

As a shy person, it may not be easy to speak, but the sister and brother didn't have that nerve, and they were in a hurry, so they went straight to the point and said that they were going to do business as a salesman. Check out the stuff here.

The young woman didn't have time, but the boss who settled the accounts looked over the two and asked what they wanted to buy.

The rules here are not trivial. Yesterday, Yan Qingzhi also said a lot to the audience. He paid attention to not breaking taboos, so it did not cause the boss's discomfort and suspicion.

The young businessman boss has also seen it. Although most of them have no courage, but he is a businessman. He only needs to do business. A penny is money, and there is no reason to push it out!
Moreover, with the effort of these few words, he also heard that the other party's words were well-organized, and he was willing to say a few more words.

The toothbrush and tooth powder here are generally shipped from the south, and the quality and price are naturally different. The two brothers and sisters pretended to be new businessmen.

Needless to say, toothbrush and tooth powder, no matter whether others use these things, the two of them will definitely use them.

In addition, there are pig hair brushes of various sizes, handle brushes, various brushes, etc., which are definitely used in the future, and naturally you have to buy some.

Then there is the pancreas soap, and I have to buy a lot. The boss also recommended saponin powder and fragrant powder to them...

All of these things are sold here. Both of them are very interested. They even bought and inquired. Two quarters of an hour passed like this.

However, although they bought a lot of things, the sisters and brothers are not clean people. They are also very ruthless at bargaining, making it easy to make money and saving a lot of money. It looks like a businessman. shrewdness.

When she came out of the store, Yan Qingzhi's basket was full.

The owner of the shop personally sent the two out, with a smile on their simple and honest faces, but there was no more contempt before.

Yan Qingzhi used to work odd jobs in other people's stores during the winter and summer vacations. As a salesperson, some words were really annoying when they heard them. After trying to find out the reserve price of the other party, only those who came and went reported a reasonable price to the other party, instead of opening their mouths and poking their hearts.

It is precisely because of this that the two parties are very satisfied. After all, it is not a big business, and there is no need to psychologically suppress each other. Hello, am I happy and rich!
From here, the siblings immediately went to the next place.

They are going to buy some salt and sugar.

When I was about to buy it, I didn't think much about it, but when I got to the place, it was a big headache again.

Whether it's salt or sugar, there are so many varieties that Yan Qingzhi can't imagine.

For example, salt is divided into coarse salt, fine salt, granular salt, well salt, sea salt, etc., and it comes from different places and processes in detail.

Some are as white as snow, while others are very variegated, but without exception, all of them are expensive to death.

Even the cheapest coarse salt costs [-] cents a pound, and it is still sold at [-] jin.

The price of fine salt has doubled to twelve cents per pound.

The price of well salt is the most expensive, and one of them has reached three hundred cents per pound.

This place is full of official salt, and tickets are required to buy and sell. Fortunately, Yan Qingzhi has a household registration on him. When the person registered, he saw that it was a girl, and he glanced a few more times.

However, according to the system, it is not said that the girl can't come to buy salt. After reading it, I will follow the procedures for her, and the salt will be weighed, and the whole thing will be done.

Without any hesitation, the two bought [-] catties of fine salt, and put the light things in Yan Qingzhu's back basket, while Yan Qingzhi carried the salt on her own.

I don't know if it was running in the past two days or what to say, but she carried the fifty catties of salt on her back, which shocked the spectators around.

On the contrary, Yan Qingzhi herself didn't feel any discomfort. Maybe it was because she had eaten enough in the past two days, and her strength improved a lot.

Speaking of which, Yan Qingzhi herself also finds it strange. It seems that since she came to this world, her strength seems to be changing every day. Asking Yan Qingzhu the other party also feels the same way, but the two of them didn't experience it in detail before. After buying a lot of things, I realized it.

They left the salt shop and went to the candy shop.

Seeing that the two were carrying so many things, the boss guessed that the two children were businessmen!Knowing that the other party has sufficient purchasing power, there is no reason to be despised.

There are many types of candy, basically bringing together the varieties of candy from all over Da Zhao, caramel, halva, stove candy, fructose... They are all wrapped in colored oil paper and look very attractive.

If other children come in, they will be more or less attracted by them, but the two of them come from later generations, they have seen more packaging than this, and they are quite calm.

She also chose some candies, and bought some white sugar, brown sugar, rock sugar and honey.

Among them, she bought the most brown sugar, but honey was the most expensive.

Coming out of the candy store, her basket was almost unstoppable.

"Looks like I need to get a car!"

Yan Qingzhi lowered her head in despair, the space or something was really too small.

The two have not prepared rice, food, cloth or luggage, so it seems that a car is really indispensable.

There is a place to sell cars in the market, and the two of them quickly found it after inquiring along the way. The cars here are flatbed trucks and wheelbarrows, which are used to push goods and deliver goods to the merchants in the market.

There are a lot of laborers in the market, but sometimes the delivery of goods does not depend on labor alone, and there is still quite a market for trolleys.

Yan Qingzhi chose a trolley with good materials and spent another [-] yuan.

They asked the boss to set up two straps for tying the goods, and then they went to buy rice, noodles, grain, oil, mountain goods and dried vegetables.

In addition, there are all kinds of seasonings, and she also bought some of them. It is not easy to find these seasonings, and she is not willing to miss Yan Qingzhi.

Especially ginger, in such a climate, if you can drink a bowl of ginger soup when you are on the road, it is really a beautiful thing, and it can also prevent colds.It's always a good idea to prepare more!
When passing by the grocery store, in addition to pots and pans, Yan Qingzhi accidentally bought a few rulers, a ruler, a square, and a square.

The rulers are all made of wood, the scales are very clear, polished and brushed with tung oil, and the size is not bad with the rulers of later generations. The two brothers were shocked.

After being shocked, they temporarily suppressed the thoughts in their hearts. No matter what the reason was, it was the most important thing to settle down right now.

Looking at the current situation, people here have become accustomed to this kind of ruler, which shows that this is not something that has emerged in recent years.

If there really is a senior who has passed through so many things to Da Zhao, the two of them can be considered to have eaten a wave of each other's dividends!
When they returned to the cart shop, the trolley had become a pull cart, Yan Qingzhi was pulling in front, and Yan Qingzhu was pushing behind.

After putting things away, Yan Qingzhu was left in the house, and Yan Qingzhi went outside the city again.

They passed by in a hurry before, and the two did not stop at Caoliao. At that time, the sky was dark and they could not see clearly.

Now that the sky is still bright, Yan Qingzhi has a chance to see the original appearance of the Cao Liao.

There are so many grass bungalows here that you can't see the head at a glance. The location of the building is some distance from the city gate. There is a large area there, and the area is not small.

These cottages rely on beams and columns to bear the load. The roofs are covered with thatch, and there are no walls. They are surrounded by straw ropes, and they are covered with mud, which is not only windproof but also fireproof.

There is no chimney in the Cao Liao, and there is no chimney. The heating is relied on a Datong-pao kang. The cooking and fire are all outside. Several households take turns using a large stove, and water is placed around it. Cylinders and snowdrifts for easy fire protection.

Moreover, after nightfall, the imperial court also has military service patrols. Although fires are common, they rarely cause large-scale fires. Basically, the fires are extinguished by two basins of water.

Yan Qingzhi walked all the way and looked at the surrounding situation, and soon found a place to register, where there were still many people lining up.

There is no deadline for the registration this time, and it is not too late to verify the registration before leaving.

Moreover, the situation this time is special, and it is not necessarily whether they will meet again in the future. The imperial court has made such a big effort, of course, the more people who want to be brought there, the better.

Although early deadlines are convenient for overall planning, in the current era, sometimes the most lacking thing is time, but sometimes it is just the opposite.

This journey may not be long for two or three months. With so much time, it is not unreasonable to put the overall planning and deployment of materials behind.

There were a few people in line in front of Yan Qingzhi, all of them were registering with their household registrations. The team moved forward very fast, and they arrived at her in a short while.

The documents reviewed were stunned. Although the child in front of him met the standards for going to Chao County, the child looked too young! ?
"Yan Qingzhi? Ten years old?"
