Chapter 123 This Is Definitely Good Food!
Tai Jiye got a bowl of lychees in syrup. When he was so sick, eating it was really appetizing and comforting.

Boss Huang looked at his expression and felt proud that he had regained some dignity. He quickly handed over the corn seeds again.

Tai Jiye smashed peanut-like corn grains, and with Boss Huang's consent, he crushed one grain. The glutinous texture was similar to wheat or even rice.

good food!
This is definitely good food!
He could no longer hold back his joy and praised, "This corn must be delicious when cooked! It has a little sweetness even when chewed so dry."

Boss Huang felt that the pores all over his body were filled with immortal energy, and his stomach no longer felt uncomfortable.

He smiled and said, "Of course, there were only a few farmers planting on the ground at the foot of the mountain. Unexpectedly, the yield was not small, and we could feed a whole family.

"I heard that the corn can be cooked and eaten whole when it is just bulging. When it is mature, it is great to grind it into flour and paste it into cakes or break it into porridge!"

While pulling up the quilt, Tai Jiye quickly thought about how to exchange the corn seeds and candied fruits at the least cost.

But obviously, the cashmere fabric he brought was not enough to look at in front of the grain seeds!

Fortunately, at this time, Chen Ruiyang finally arrived, followed by Guanshi Qian and two servants.

As soon as Guanshi Qian entered the door, he yelled, "Brother Tai, why did you ask the children to bring things over? Don't you want to sell the goods at this time? This is not possible!"

He pretended to be aggrieved, stepped forward and sat next to Tai Jiye, and said, "Let's go all the way, not a family is better than a family. Even if you want to sell the goods, you should ask me first.

"You don't know, I've been watching the whole journey, and I'm going to eat them all and take them back to our master's wife. These cashmere cushions are definitely a good thing to give as a gift during the New Year!"

Tai Jiye laughed, and replied, "Don't worry about money. I don't have to sell it. I just talk to this boss Huang and look at each other's goods to show off. Boss Huang may not be able to see it." What about these things in me..."

At this moment, Chen Ruiyang had already taken out the cashmere cushion from the package.

The multi-treasure rosette and the big red pomegranate immediately caught Boss Huang's eye. He didn't even bother to wear shoes and went down to the ground to look at them carefully.

Seeing his excited expression, Guanshi Qian became a little anxious, took Tai Jiye's arm and shouted, "Brother Tai, don't care about the price, I will keep this batch of goods no matter what.

"I've already thought about that set of cashmere trousers as a birthday present for our master. Our master was born in Juren and likes to wear long gowns in winter, but Bashu is humid and cold, so the cashmere trousers are very suitable."

Boss Huang is not stupid either. He was looking through the cashmere clothes and pants, and naturally he could see the benefits of these clothes.

He even wanted to think about acupuncture, but he had no clue.

Hearing that Guanshi Qian wanted to wrap up everything in one go, he also yelled, "Brother Tai, we are destined to be in the same boat, you can't just watch my brother go back to his hometown like this, and be laughed at by others!
"I don't want much, and I don't dare to compare with your fellow traveler. But...half of it, just give me half of these cashmere cushions."

"No, no! Only half of it is left, and it's not enough for me to bring it back to the master's house!" Steward Qian objected immediately.

Within a few words, the two men were arguing, bickering and fighting to get more for themselves.

On the contrary, Tai Jiye was left aside to listen to the excitement. People who didn't know it thought he had nothing to do with him!
After a long while, Manager Qian and Boss Huang finally reached an agreement.

Manager Qian grabbed cashmere clothes and [-]% of the cushions, and gave them to Tai Jiye in exchange for medicinal materials.

And Tai Jiye used these medicinal materials and the remaining cashmere cushions to exchange all the tea leaves, candied fruits and twenty bags of corn seeds owned by Boss Huang.

In addition, Boss Huang replenished Tai Jiye with 50 taels of silver, which was considered to be the cost of traveling back to the north.

This result made Tai Jiye so satisfied that he couldn't be more satisfied!

Boss Huang was also afraid that he would regret it, so he kept urging him to deliver the goods.

Within half an hour, the transaction was completely completed.

Boss Huang didn't say he would continue to treat patients, and just took his staff home.

This made Tai Jiye think in his heart, there must be a problem with the corn seeds...

But I have changed everything, and there is no cure for my regrets!
Guanshi Qian stayed here for a day. First, Tai Jiye fell ill and needed medical treatment. Second, he sent a letter for a friend. Now that he got the cashmere cushion, he was also in a hurry, so he tentatively asked Tai Jiye.

"Brother Tai, are you going to continue south with us, or are you going to find another caravan back to Tai'an?"

Tai Jiye was also struggling, not knowing what to do for a while.

It is still three or four days away from Shunde Mansion where Chen Ruiyang is going. If you continue to go south with these goods, you will not be troubled, and if you return to Tai'an, you will miss the time for the seeds to go to the fields.

But I have already walked [-]% of the way, and I am short of the last distance. I can't deliver Chen Ruiyang in person, and I can't explain it when I go home!
Chen Ruiyang was originally smart, but he has become more mature and stable through his experience along the way.

He guessed what Tai Jiye was thinking, and said, "Third Uncle, you and eldest brother should go back to Tai'an first. Uncle Qian and the others passed by Shunde Mansion, I can continue to follow them, and it will be done after entering the gate of Shunde Mansion."

Guanshi Qian walked with their uncle and nephew. Although he didn't know the inside story, he also knew that Chen Ruiyang was going to look for relatives.

He said, "We did pass by the Shunde Mansion, and I will take someone to take Ruiyang to the door of his relatives. If there is any problem, I will take him to Bashu, or entrust another caravan to send him back to Tai'an. Anyway, I won’t let this child get lost.”

Chen Ruiyang nodded vigorously and persuaded Tai Jiye, "Third uncle, just go back with peace of mind. Remember to help me and my family members report that they are safe. And sister Zhuzhu, tell me that I will find a way to bring her back with good things in the future!"

Tai Jiye can't, this is indeed the best solution.

"Okay, I'll take care of money and manage things. If you go to Tai'an County in the future, you must come to Taijia Village in the south for a few days. Let me do my best as a landlord!"

"Of course!" Manager Qian agreed with a smile.

At this point, the matter is settled.

In the early morning of the second day, the caravan set off again. Chen Ruiyang stood on the carriage, waving vigorously with Tai Jiye and Tai Yongan all the time.

Tai Yongan's eyes were red and he shouted loudly, "Brother Ruiyang, if someone bullies you, send a message home! Big brother will pick you up!"

Chen Ruiyang didn't know whether he heard it or not, and kept waving his hands until the convoy disappeared.

Tai Jiye and Tai Yongan settled their reluctance and looked for the northbound caravan in the city.

Speaking of which, they were also lucky. They encountered a small caravan returning to the border. The carriages and horses were half empty but there were enough people, and they were all good at martial arts.

Tai Jiye made a prompt decision and took 20 taels of silver to be in charge of the caravan. He distributed all his goods to the caravan's carriage and returned quickly.

The journey home is always a joyful one!

The dizziness, nausea and stomachache that Tai Jiye had before are gone now...
