Escape from the desert

Lao Wu was taken aback by her voice, and the string of fish he was holding trembled. When he loosened his hand, the dumpling-sized thing in his palm rolled onto the counter of the condiment shop with a thud. A few rolls.

"Aunt Jiang, this is something in the store, I don't know what it is, I just looked at it." So I touched it.

Jiang Yan didn't even care to talk to him, he quickly picked up the potatoes on the counter, which were still stained with dry mud, but she didn't care at all, just put them in her hands and looked at them carefully.

It has a yellowish skin, a round body, and a few white buds in several sunken places. Although it is extremely small, it is indeed a potato, a small potato!
She has been here for so long, and she never knew that there were potatoes in this era. If there are potatoes, it is possible to find other things.

Jiang Yan slapped the potatoes in front of the shop's second brother and asked, "Second brother, what is this thing?"

The shop assistant said: "This is something that our boss exchanged from the ocean-going merchant. We don't know what it is. It has been put away for a month, and no one cares. I didn't expect you to take a fancy to it. "

Jiang Yan asked curiously, "A merchant from the ocean?"

The second shopkeeper said proudly: "That's right, those people are very strange, and there are people with strange hair colors. Our boss has a big business, and he likes to play around the most. These businessmen are all he met when he was out playing. of."

Jiang Yan nodded. The country she lives in is called Huaguo, also known as Huachao. There are many dependent countries and other countries around. These things may have been passed down from the Western Regions or overseas countries, because in the memory of the original body, Yongan Town Before the drought, it was very prosperous, and the big river at the ferry never dried up. At that time, there would still be many foreign ship traders.

"Second brother, is there anything else besides this? I also like these strange things. You can take them out and show them to me. If I like them, I'll buy some back."

As soon as the shop assistant heard it, he immediately went to the back room and took out a box of things: "Look, eldest sister, these are all, I don't know what they are, but our boss said that anyone who sees them can sell them!"

Jiang Yan went up the mountain and pulled it. The box is not big and there are not many things. In addition to potatoes, there are some flower seeds and fruit seeds in it. I can't tell what they are. There are several kinds of seasonings, cumin and pepper, but the amount is very small. , she didn't care about anything else, she bought all of them in front of Lao Wu. With this name, she can use this as an excuse to buy anything unusual in the mall in the future.

"I like it very much. You see how much it costs, and I want it."

The shop assistant was very surprised when he heard the words, and immediately said, "As soon as the eldest sister is seen, she is a person with discerning eyes and pearls. If you want two taels of silver, I will sell it to you together with a box."

"No problem. In the future, ask your boss to bring more of these things, especially these two. If there are any, I will come down and buy them again." Pointing to pepper and cumin, Jiang Yan readily gave the money, and then she took it again. A packet of fine salt was bought for Lao Wu. Just now, I saw Lao Wu lingering at the salt counter a few times, but this store was more expensive, so Lao Wu didn't buy it.

Seeing this, the second shopkeeper also calculated the two and gave the money. Old Wu took the box and followed Jiang Yan without saying a word. Jiang Yan wanted to help mention the fish, but he was severely rejected by him. , Jiang Yan simply gave up.

After buying these things, Jiang Yan went to the pork shop again. This time, she wanted to buy not only fresh pork, but also jerky. She was going to send a few children to the private school tomorrow. After all, the original body is the best licking dog who has licked the two reading men. From her memory, Jiang Yan naturally knows what the six rituals are.

This jerky is one of them, which means thanks to the teacher, celery, which means being diligent in business, longan, which means perfect merit, lotus seeds, which means painstaking teaching, red dates, which means early high school, red beans, which means grand exhibitions, buy them according to the head. After that, Jiang Yan packed up one by one, including Xiao Linzi and Puppy Zi's.

When Old Wu saw this, he had to give Jiang Yan money for everything. Jiang Yan knew that he wanted to send his children to school by himself, and he was unambiguous. Just let him give it when he had money. Because there were a lot of things, she asked Old Wu to put it first. Back to the carriage, he turned around and went to another street.

I promised Xiaodouzi to buy chickens for a long time. After so long, I should buy them for the little guy today. She walked around and saw an old man buying chickens in a remote corner. There were only three in the stall. Cage baskets, two baskets of chickens, one basket of ducks, dozens of them all squatting and crawling in the cage, and when someone came, only a few stood up staggeringly, not looking at the spirits. Great, it looks like it's not too long to live.

"Uncle, how did you sell this chicken and duck? It doesn't look good, is there any problem?" Jiang Yan poked with her finger, the little chicken is Huang Pupu, but it is very cute.

"Don't worry, big sister, the sun is shining a little, and the chickens are all dry, but the chickens are all fine. My chickens and ducks are all sturdy. You look at them, they are bigger than ordinary chickens. Many, you can buy them back with confidence, and you can come to me at any time if you have any questions. I set up a stall in this town every day. Uncle Ge spoke immediately and passionately, fearing that Jiang Yan would not believe it, he swiftly pulled out a chicken and a duck from the cage while he blew himself up, and shoved it into Jiang Yan's hand as he spoke.

Jiang Yan was caught off guard and held a chicken in her right hand and a duck in her left hand. Before she could react, the little bitch in her hand snorted. A lump of yellow and white chicken excrement was in the center of her palm, warm. Huh, it's still hot.

Jiang Yan: "..."

"Oh! I'm really sorry, big sister! This disobedient chicken!" Uncle Ge's face turned pale with fright, and he immediately grabbed the chicken back, and hurriedly picked up a handful of finely chopped hay from the ground, hurriedly to clean up Jiang Yan.

The blue veins on Jiang Yan's forehead jumped repeatedly, and in the end, she could only force a polite smile, but the other hand quickly put the duck back into the basket.

"It's okay, uncle, how did you sell your chickens and ducks?" After Jiang Yan asked, she rubbed her palms on the trouser legs naturally, and muttered to herself that she would wash her hands and change clothes when she went back!
"Chickens and ducks are all the same price, seven cents a piece, big girl, how much do you want?"

There are [-] chickens in a cage and [-] ducks in a cage. Jiang Yan bought a cage and paid the money. She just disliked it and walked away with her two hands and the cage frame, trying to keep the cage as far away from her as possible. , because a lot of chicken poop was on the cage.

Jiang Yan and the village chief also made an appointment to measure the land and returned to the carriage. Old Wu hung the two cages of chickens and ducks in front of the carriage, and drove the carriage back to the village with Jiang Yan. As for Lin Dong and the others, they could do it after closing the stall. Take Lin Gui's bullock cart back.
