Portable Space: Traveling through Nongmen

Chapter 235 Accounting
There is a difference of 70 to [-] years in the age of one, one, one, and the other, but the two of them had a pleasant chat, and Gu Lian didn't want to disturb them when she was working in the house, so she just quietly worked and listened.

Xu Qianhe lost track of the time while chatting, until his stomach gurgled again. If it wasn't for his hunger, he really wanted to continue the chat.

"Grandpa Xu, go to dinner. If you want to chat with me, I'll sit here and chat with you." Bao'er said empathetically.

Xu Qianhe was moved, where did such a well-behaved and sensible doll come from.

It made him want to have one even more.

Gu Lian also heard voices from outside today, and went to take out the porridge and steamed buns that were warm in the pot and put them on the table, "I don't know how the old man's appetite is, these steamed steamed stuffed buns are stuffed with pork and green onions. Yes, you can taste it, big buns and millet porridge are home-cooked dishes, so don’t dislike them. If you want to eat something else, you can also tell me, and I’ll go ahead and get it for you.”

"No, this steamed stuffed bun is very good. It smells delicious. You don't need to eat it so greasy in the morning. It's good if it's light." Xu Qianhe picked up a steamed stuffed bun and took a bite while talking.

The fresh scent of pork and scallions came out, not spicy, but fragrant. This is an authentic rural big bun. It doesn’t look good, but it’s delicious.

The delicious taste mixed with the juice that flowed out made the addicts whet their appetites, and Xu Qianhe was already hungry, so he ate most of it in one bite.

His face is full of satisfaction. In his life, besides studying medical skills, he also loves food, eating all kinds of delicacies from various places.

It is a great joy in life to be able to travel around the mountains and rivers all day long while being accompanied by your favorite things.

Seeing that Xu Qianhe didn't show any disgust on his face, but instead ate big mouthfuls, Gu Lian was very happy, at least it was a recognition of her cooking skills.

Bao'er followed what she had promised before, and sat on another stool dangling her calves to watch Xu Qianhe eat steamed stuffed buns and drink rice porridge.

Maybe Xu Qianhe's food was too delicious, or maybe he was attracted by the smell of the steamed buns. The more Bao'er looked at it, the more he felt a little gluttonous, and he wanted to eat it...

Bao'er simply took another bun and gnawed on it.

"I ate two buns this morning, will I be full after eating? How about I eat it later?" Gu Lian was a little worried.

"Jinzi steamed stuffed bun is so delicious, I can still eat it if it's not full." Bao'er rubbed her stomach, the feeling of fullness before has disappeared, and now she feels like she can still eat this steamed stuffed bun use up.

"Okay, then if you're full, put the steamed stuffed bun aside, and eat it when you can't hold it anymore."

Seeing Baoer's insistence, Gu Lian didn't stop her too much.

"It's a blessing to be able to eat." Xu Qianhe next to him said with a smile, looking at Bao'er, whose cheeks were bulging after he gnawed on the steamed stuffed bun.

At this time, Shen Yingshu, who had taken care of the things in the small room, arrived late.

After they chatted for a while, Xu Qianhe asked where the clinic where Shen Yingshu bought medicine for Bao'er was.

There was nothing he couldn't say, so Shen Yingshu told him the address.

As soon as she sat down and chatted with Xu Qianhe and Bao'er, Shen Yingshu was called by Zhou Yurong to entertain the guests again.

A wave of guests suddenly came in front of them, and Zhou Yurong was in a hurry by herself.

Shen Yingshu hurried forward to help, and when the group of guests was done, Xu Qianhe came out of the room after eating, and he took out two pieces of silver from his cuff and put them on the table.

"Grandpa Xu, what are you doing?"

"Pay, yesterday's meal payment, this morning's meal payment plus last night's thanks to you, you deserve the money, you are not allowed to refuse." Xu Qianhe said cheerfully.

From yesterday to today, this trip was worthwhile. Not only did he get the address of a doctor who also developed the poison suppression method like him, but he also established a good relationship with Bao'er Shen Yingshu.

"But this is too much."

This piece of silver is mostly one tael, and two pieces is two taels of silver. Even if it is yesterday plus today's food and sleep, this two taels of silver is too much. Although Shen Yingshu is embarrassed, he took advantage of him .

"Not much, not much, I think it's worth it." Xu Qianhe raised his eyebrows, "The food in your shop is delicious, and I will come over to eat when I have time."

After speaking, he strode away without leaving.
"Then I'll wait for Grandpa Xu."

Shen Yingshu watched Xu Qianhe leave.

"Yingshu, is this how you accept these taels of silver?"

Zhou Yurong asked aloud, based on what Xu Qianhe ate yesterday and today, it would cost hundreds of copper coins.

This two taels of silver is enough for him to eat for half a month, so it's not good to accept it like this?

"Mother, didn't you hear the old man just said that he would come to eat again?"

Shen Yingshu opened the drawer and put two taels of silver in it.

"I heard that, so what? The food in our store is delicious and novel. Is it normal for him to come and eat?" Zhou Yurong obviously didn't react.

"Mother, think about it, he really can't use up the two taels of silver for the time being, but if he comes to eat again next time, can the meal money be directly deducted from the two taels of silver, so he doesn't have to pay any more?" "Shen Yingshu slowly induced Zhou Yurong to react.

Zhou Yurong suddenly realized, "Can it still be like this?"

"Of course, some alcoholic guests forget to bring money occasionally, so I will give a little extra money when eating. If one forgets to bring money, others will not think that he is here to spoil the situation." Shen Yingshu Think of a simple and easy-to-understand metaphor to explain to Zhou Yurong.

"Oh I got it."

Zhou Yurong understood, indeed, if someone came here to eat and didn't bring any money after eating, he would really treat the other party as a mess, and beat him out with a stick without hesitation.

"Mother, maybe we will meet this kind of customer again in the future. Next time, we can take a piece of paper and write it down. This can be regarded as keeping accounts."

However, this kind of accounting also has another meaning. For example, if a nobleman comes to eat, he does not bring any money with him, and the daily meal money is recorded in the account, and he goes to the nobleman's house to settle the payment every month.

However, there are no high-ranking officials or dignitaries in this small town, only a few wealthy non-member landowners and benevolent people.

But rich people like them always go to rich and expensive restaurants to eat, and will not come to visit their own small shops.

As Shen Yingshu said, she took out a piece of paper from the other party and took notes. This ancient writing brush needs to be dipped in ink before it can be used.

The current ballpoint pen is still easier to use and can be used at any time, but it is a pity that it has not been invented in ancient times.

Shen Yingshu also learned calligraphy in her previous life. Although she hadn't used it for a while, it seemed a little rusty when she first touched the brush, but she got used to it after writing a few characters.
