Lord Moyu was forced to open

Lingxi County.

sunset.

"Baozi! Baozi! Your mother called you home for dinner!"

"Huh? I don't want it, I haven't had enough fun yet!"

"Hahaha, you bastard, be careful and your mother will catch you later and beat you bastard with sugar cane!"

The uncle from the same village who was passing by saw that the sun was going down and he was catching loaches in the field with a group of monkey cubs. The nephew who refused to go home shouted twice, and when he saw that he didn't hear a few words, he was about to leave.

Anyway, he won't be able to play for long, and this bad boy's mother will come to catch him. By then, this bad boy will know what it means to not listen to the old man and suffer a loss in front of him.

Now that the Chinese New Year is coming soon, I picked so many sugar oranges today that I have to pick them home quickly, but I don’t have time to waste here with this bad boy.

I heard that the sugar oranges from Lingxi have been ordered by His Majesty as a good gift for the Song Dynasty New Year. I don’t know if it is possible for my own sugar oranges to be presented to His Majesty’s table as a tribute. If it can be done, it will be a great honor for the ancestors. Here!

When the time comes, I might even be able to open a separate page of my family tree for myself!

Suck! I can't dream anymore, it's almost dark, I have to pick up some sugar oranges and go home.

Shaking his head and throwing away the whims in his head, Chen Abing hurriedly picked up the sugar oranges and walked home.

Thumping!

As the sky gradually darkens, tired birds begin to return to their nests, and the little kids in the fields are still picking up loaches, all laughing and laughing.

However, this beautiful scene did not last long.

"Chen A Bao! You little boy, it's already dark, don't you know how to go home? Do I have to beat you with sugar cane every day to know how to go home!"

As this familiar voice entered his ears, Chen Abao, who was having fun, suddenly trembled all over and showed a scared look.

Before his friends could laugh at him, the next moment!

"Chen Shuyi! You are a girl who runs around with these bad guys every day. Aren't you tired of doing laundry every day? You haven't come home yet!"

"Chen Guangzong! Did I give you some shame? Don't you know when it's time to go home for dinner?"

"Chen Cheng!..."

"Chen Ergou!..."

……

Following the mother's calls, the children who originally wanted to laugh at Chen Abao stopped laughing and froze.

The next moment, someone shouted.

"Run quickly! Mom is here!"

A group of mud monkeys who were covered in mud rushed out of the field one after another, carrying their today's harvest, whether fish, shrimp, crabs or loaches, and fled in all directions.

However, how could the monkeys escape from Tathagata Buddha's Five Fingers Mountain? Soon, accompanied by bursts of squeaking noises, these mud monkeys, without exception, were all grabbed by their ears by their respective mothers and taken home.

Accompanying their wailing were the nagging scoldings of a group of old ladies, and from time to time branches or sugar cane would suddenly fall and hit them hard on their buttocks.

Sure enough, just as Chen Abing guessed, these mud monkeys finally understood what it means to not listen to the old man's words and suffer the consequences.

After some tidying up, each household began to eat.

The same is true for Chen Abao's family. After being thrown into the water, Chen Abao, who had changed into clean clothes, sat on the stool and watched his mother bring the food to the table. From time to time, he bared his teeth and grinned. It was because of the pain in his buttocks from the spanking just now. .

His father, Chen Ashui, was sitting across from him, watching him gloating over his misfortune and laughing.

It wasn't until his wife placed a bowl of rice in front of him that she quickly stopped smiling.

"Smile, smile, smile! I know how to laugh! Every day, I asked you to take him to pick sugar oranges, but the result! He ran away to play!

It's also thanks to the good times in the past two years and the reign of Emperor Sheng. Otherwise, if it were during the reign of Emperor Sheng, I don't think he would be able to survive when he grows up if he continues to play like this!

If you don’t learn enough every day, you won’t be able to work! Just know how to play!

Look at Li Jiacheng from the East Village. Although he is no longer in school, he has been smart since he was a child. Look at how young he is and he went out to do business with his father! Look at this mud monkey again, you know how to play!

This is all your father's fault! "

"Yes, yes! It's all my fault..."

Chen Ashui didn't dare to refute, so he hurriedly lowered his head to eat and let his wife ramble on. This was already a common occurrence and he was used to it.

My wife will be quiet after she speaks. If she talks back, it will be endless.

On this point, the father and son reached a rare tacit understanding. No one dared to refute when the tigress roared at home, and they all ate in silence.

After Tigress finished speaking, the family finally became quiet and everyone started to eat.

Halfway through the meal, Chen Ah Shui said, "Zhao Di, I've picked all the sugar oranges at home and I'm going to take them to the county to sell them tomorrow. Do you think you can go with me tomorrow?"

When Li Zhaodi heard this, she frowned and asked, "Why do you suddenly have to go to the county town to sell it? In the past years, didn't you always go to the town? This time you have to travel dozens of miles back and forth."

Chen Ah Shui chuckled and said: "You don't know, I heard from my uncle today that last year our county magistrate sent sugar oranges to Bianjing as an offering, and His Majesty ate it and said it was delicious!

Have you heard of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce? I heard that it is the Royal Chamber of Commerce. I heard that they have opened a store in the county this year. They are purchasing sugar oranges and preparing to transport them to the capital for sale by sea. The purchase price there is high. A pound of sugar oranges costs ten cents a pound. !

Our three acres of land can produce more than 7,000 kilograms of sugar oranges every year. If we can sell this, it will be a full seventy taels of silver! " "What! Ten articles! There are only three hundred people in this town! "

When Li Zhaodi heard this, she immediately exclaimed.

Chen Ashui said proudly: "You are ignorant of this.

They are the Royal Chamber of Commerce, and what they want are the best sugar oranges. They go to the capital to sell them. They are high-end products, and they sell for more than ten pennies. Ten pennies is high for us, but cheap for them. It's very good. It's just that His Majesty wants us people to make more money, so he just purchases it directly from the people. Otherwise, if he directly outsources it to those businessmen, wouldn't those businessmen still be able to charge it at the original price and sell it at a high price?

As for the Li Ka-shing family you just mentioned, I heard that they wanted to negotiate with Feiyun Corporation for agency because of this matter, but they didn't agree. Otherwise, how would we have this opportunity? "

Chen Zhaodi was deeply moved. This was seventy taels! With this money, not only will the family's expenses not have to worry about next year, but the children will also be able to go to a better school. Maybe they will be able to get a good college entrance examination in the future, and then they won't have to rely on growing fruit trees like the couple. Lived.

but……

"You said that everyone wants good fruits, can these sugar oranges of ours be liked by others?"

Li Zhaodi asked worriedly, "Don't let people don't want her when the time comes. Tangtangju will have to be pulled back all the way after stretching her hair for such a long time."

Regarding this, Chen Ah Shui said confidently: "I dare not say anything else. As for our sugar oranges, who from all over the country can be sweeter than ours?

Our trees are all decades old!

Besides, even if it doesn’t work, I will just sell it in the county town. The purchase price in the county town will be higher than that in the town, so I won’t lose money! "

Li Zhaodi thought the same thing after hearing this, and immediately said: "Okay, I will send Baozi to my parents early tomorrow morning, and we will go to the county town together. Let's pull a cart to test the water first!"

"it is good!"

The night passed.

At dawn, Li Zhaodi sent her leather monkey to her parents-in-law, and then followed the man pulling a cart of sugar oranges toward Haining County.

It took the couple a whole morning to get there after traveling nearly twenty miles. They were accompanied by many people from the same village who had received the news.

When a group of people came to Haining County, they discovered that many people from other villages had also received the news and came to Haining County. There were sugar orange sellers everywhere in Haining County.

Now Chen Ah Shui was panicking. With so many people selling sugar oranges, he was gradually losing confidence in his own sugar oranges. But he had already dragged him here, so he had to go in and give it a try, otherwise it would be in vain. ?

With this mentality, the couple finally arrived in front of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce store, but there was already a long queue of people here. At first glance, they all sold sugar oranges.

At this time, Chen Ah Shui and his wife felt their hearts go cold, and Li Zhaodi couldn't help but started to complain:

"It's all your fault. Look at so many people. Can our sugar oranges still be sold?"

Chen Ah Shui also felt a little regretful at this time, but it had come and the couple could only continue.

After queuing for who knows how long, it was finally the couple's turn.

The shopkeeper in charge of collecting sugar oranges from Feiyun Chamber of Commerce looked at the sugar oranges the couple brought, making them nervous for a while.

He reached out and picked up another one and ate it.

The couple was nervous again.

As his expression changed, the couple became nervous three times!

at last!

The shopkeeper's expression changed!

The couple got nervous four times!

Then the shopkeeper said in surprise: "Yes! This is the sweetest sugar orange today! Are you sure that all your sugar oranges are of this quality?"

Chen Ah Shui was stunned when he heard this, but quickly woke up when his wife pinched her waist secretly, and nodded quickly!

"Don't worry, sir! All the sugar oranges in our house are so sweet!"

"really?"

"really!"

"Okay! We will send people to your house for random checks. If what you say is true, then I have to say that your family is in luck!"

"what?"

Chen Ah Shui and his wife looked confused.

Good luck, what kind of good luck.

But I heard the shopkeeper whisper: "Since His Majesty said the sugar oranges were delicious last year, our Chamber of Commerce has been looking for the most delicious sugar oranges from various places, preparing to use them in the palace this year. I think your sugar oranges will work. If you pass the spot check, maybe your sugar oranges will become tributes to the palace in the future. Do you think it's just good luck?"

"Ah! Tribute?"

Chen Ah Shui's eyes widened, and then he fainted. There was a commotion around him. It took a while for Chen Ah Shui to wake up from being pinched. As soon as he woke up, he quickly grabbed the shopkeeper's thigh!

"Sir! I promise you all have this quality! When I take you to my house, this place must be given to me!"

Guangzong Yaozu! Guangzong Yaozu!

It’s finally my turn to be rich and wealthy, Chen Ah Shui!

Hahahaha... (End of this chapter)
