Chapter 255
Three days later.
Inside the hall.
"Third brother, why did you come back so late? We are all worried." Fat Miao'er said with a reproachful expression.
Normally, Compass should have come back yesterday, but the three of Fat Miao'er waited very late at the pier and still didn't see their cargo ship return. It was inevitable that they were a little worried and didn't sleep well all night.
"Hey! I'm sorry, I know I was wrong, and I will definitely not do it next time." Looking at the concerned eyes of Fat Miao'er, Liu Ye'er, and Wei Shu, Luo Pan felt warm, scratched his head in embarrassment, and apologized again and again.
"Abacus, what's going on?" Wei Shu asked
Hearing this, Luo Pan regained his spirits, took a sip from his teacup and said, "I had a big business deal in Fucheng, so I was delayed for a day."
"What business?" Fat Miao'er asked curiously.
"Don't we want to expand the watermelon planting area? I talked to the merchants I knew when I was studying with Guanshi Ma, and it turned out..." Luopan paused at this point.
"What's the result?" Fat Miao'er asked anxiously.
"In the end, the merchant said that he wanted all our watermelons, and he signed a contract with me." After speaking, Luo Pan took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Fat Miao'er.
In this family, apart from the compass, only Fat Miao'er is interested in doing business, and the other three people just need enough to live on. As for the amount of money, they never ask or worry about it.
Fat Miao'er reached out to take the contract, opened it and looked at it seriously.
It said that if Luopan purchased all the watermelons grown by Luopan, he would transport them to Fucheng by himself at 45 Wen per catty, and if he sent someone to pull them himself, it would cost [-] Wen per catty. There are some details in the end.
"Third brother, you are awesome!" Fat Miao'er gave the compass a thumbs up.
She was still worried two days ago, if it was increased to [-] mu all of a sudden, and the villagers also planted it, would it cause the watermelon to depreciate?
"It's just good luck, it's just good luck." Compass kept rubbing his hands with a happy face.
"Third brother, where's the eldest brother, did you encounter any risks along the way?" Liu Ye'er asked.
"Brother went straight back to the county. Because he was delayed for another day, he didn't come back, and he didn't encounter any danger. Uncle Chen found a boat that was too powerful, and he could think about everything first, so it went so smoothly." Compass explained road.
"Then you have to thank Uncle Chen well then." Liu Ye'er urged.
"Don't worry, I know what's going on." Compass nodded.
"Second brother, in a few days you will go to Fucheng for the exam. I should accompany you there, but I am going to Liaodong Prefecture to run a boat. I wonder if I can make it back." Luopan said apologetically.
"It's okay, everything has been prepared, you don't need to worry, you can run the boat with peace of mind, that is the greatest support for me." Wei Shu smiled and waved his hands.
"I did the calculations at Famen Temple, and the sailing will be very safe and smooth, so don't worry, second brother!" Compass patted his chest.
"Then be more careful." Wei Shu instructed again.
"Understood!" Compass nodded heavily.
"Okay, let's eat quickly. I'm going to starve to death. I've been away for the past few days, and I just think about the taste of the food at home, especially scrambled eggs with tomatoes." Luo Pan said while licking his lips.
"I'll go with Mrs. Qiang and bring over the food." After speaking, Liu Ye'er stood up and left the main room, walking towards the kitchen.
……
early morning.
The sun is shining brightly, the sky is cloudless, and the grasses are scrambling to get out of the ground, putting a green dress on the earth.
A burst of earthy fragrance flowed into the nose, neither thick nor light, it was refreshing, and all the troubles and melancholy disappeared.
There are still two days before the government examination, Fat Miao'er and the others decided to set off this morning, arrive before dark, and rest for another day to recharge their batteries, the time is just right.
Fat Miao'er, Compass, and Liu Ye'er were sitting in the carriage, naturally Uncle Qiang was driving the carriage, and Li Xiaodao was riding alone on the horse, following on the right side of the carriage.
"Brother, is riding a horse fun? I want to try it too." Fat Miao'er poked his head out of the car window and said, looking at Li Xiaodao on the horse.
Hearing this, Li Xiaodao said dotingly: "Riding a horse is not fun at all, but it's bumpy. If you ride for a day, I guarantee that your little butt won't dare to be on the kang at night."
"In that case, brother, let's sit in the car." Fat Miao'er suggested.
"It's okay, big brother has rough skin and thick flesh." Li Xiaodao waved his hand.
"Then if you can't hold on, you can come in." Fat Miao'er said again.
"Okay." Li Xiaodao nodded with a smile.
After taking a simple bite at noon, Li Xiaodao rode his horse and took a step ahead.
He was going to find an inn and book a room so that Fat Miao would not have to look for it when the time came.
Don't waste time by then, you may not be able to find a good one.
After a day of rushing, a majestic city came into the eyes of Fat Miaoer and the others.
The high city walls, heavy city gates, endless crowds, and the majestic and majestic gate tower all showed the prosperity of this city.
On the city wall above the city gate, there are three large characters of Linjiang Mansion written impressively.
"It's finally here!" Fat Miao'er jumped off the carriage and stretched his waist.
Even though she was sitting in the carriage, the day's running around still made her back ache, and her whole body was about to fall apart.
Liu Ye'er and Wei Shu also jumped out of the carriage, stretching their bodies as well.
"Brother said to wait at the city gate, it's getting dark soon, let's hurry up and get in." Liu Ye'er said.
After listening, Wei Shu and Fat Miao'er nodded, and the three walked to the end of the team entering the city, while Zhu Qiang followed behind with a carriage.
There were officers and soldiers checking at the gate of the city, Wei Shu showed his examination papers, and they passed without a hitch.
After entering the city, Li Xiaodao, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly greeted him, and led a few people to the inn.
Looking at the endless street and the dazzling array of shops on both sides, Fat Miao'er sighed in his heart: It's so big!
After a stick of incense, everyone came to the inn.
Fat Miao'er looked up, the whole inn was not very big, but inside it was very clean, there were many people sitting in the lobby, obviously the business was good.
"It's not far from the Gongyuan, and the price is very reasonable. I visited several, and finally settled here." Li Xiaodao said to everyone.
"Brother, we can rest assured." Fat Miao'er Wan'er smiled.
"Thank you, Brother." Wei Shu cupped his hands.
"They're all my brothers, what are you talking about?" Li Xiaodao had a resentful look on his face.
At this moment, the waiter from the inn came out and said to Li Xiaodao: "Guest officer, the rooms you reserved have been packed."
Li Xiaodao booked two upper rooms and one lower room. The upper room was for him and Wei Shu, Fat Miao'er and Liu Yeer were for one, and the second room was for Zhu Qiang.
