Desert Island Survival: I took my concubine and raised wolf cubs

Wen Xian had a lot of things she wanted to know, and the shopkeeper was happy to tell her.

She directly grabbed a handful of the melon seeds she just bought, handed it to the shopkeeper and said, "Here, shopkeeper, eat some melon seeds and continue chatting."

Melon seeds are not expensive. She bought several kilograms, which is enough for her to eat a few from time to time.

The shopkeeper happily took the melon seeds and said, "You bought the seeds, right? Are you going to eat them like this?"

Although he asked this question, he had no intention of refusing.

Wen Xian waved her hand and said nonchalantly: "One melon seed can grow a seedling, so many are enough."

She is not in the melon seed business, she just grows some to satisfy her cravings.

The shopkeeper said nothing more, ate a few melon seeds, raised his eyebrows and said, "If the price is back to twenty cents per catty, I have no complaints. The prefect of our Guanping Mansion is so kind, Guan Qi We can live our own lives through the door. Then we have suppressed all prices, bringing them back to normal prices."

He didn't know what the prices were in other places. He only knew that the prices in Guanping Mansion were always stable.

He changed his tone and whispered: "If it weren't for this, life in our city would not be so peaceful and easy. Now even those refugees are following the rules and working hard to earn money to support their families."

Although it accepts refugees selectively, it also protects the interests of the indigenous people and refugees to the greatest extent.

Therefore, the aboriginal people in Fucheng did not have much opinion, and they all supported the prefect.

"Our Lord is really a good official." Wen Xian sighed, and then said, "How do you sell your millet and red dates? If the price is right, I will buy some to keep my family healthy."

Millet is hard to come by. After all, it is not a filling food, and few people buy it.

These have been in the shop for a year and are not sold out yet.

When he heard that she wanted to buy millet, the shopkeeper said excitedly: "If you want it, sir, I will give you fifteen cents per catty for millet and eight cents per catty for red dates."

Although millet is not very filling, it is more valuable.Therefore, fifteen cents per catty is not expensive.

Wen Xian waved her hand and said, "Ten pounds each."

Buy some and cook some red dates and millet porridge to nourish your stomach.

Immediately, she turned her eyes to the other two bags in the corner, which contained soybeans and mung beans.

She tilted her head and said, "Where are these beans? How can I sell them?"

Soybeans and mung beans are good things and can be used in many foods.She plans to buy some to eat back home, and also divide some into seeds.

Another item from the bottom of the box was asked for price. The shopkeeper almost lost his smile and said quickly: "Both of them are five cents a pound."

He didn't understand what made the beans so delicious. They wouldn't taste good even if they were boiled, and they wouldn't taste good even if they were cooked with some salt. They would always fart after eating too much.

"Twenty kilograms each." Wen Xian happily bought twenty kilograms each.

The shopkeeper also happily packed twenty kilograms for her, and also packed an extra handful to give to her as an extra.

Ten pounds of millet, ten pounds of red dates, and forty pounds of beans, all together cost less than half a tael of silver.

It’s more convenient not to buy the other polished rice and flour now. It will be more convenient to buy them and send them directly to the ship when you go to town.

There were sixty kilograms of things in total. The shopkeeper even asked Wen Xian if she wanted to help with the delivery, but Wen Xian refused.

She asked Xia Zhidao to carry millet and red dates, while she carried a bag of beans in one hand and rushed to the Sun Pavilion.

Just as he moved his things back to the courtyard, he happened to meet Zhu Qing who was coming back from doing errands.

Zhu Qing was surprised: "You two bought so many things?"

Millet and red dates are good things, but soybeans and mung beans, he didn't understand.Wen Xian nodded and said: "We don't have these at home, buy some."

"By the way, how much does the polished rice and white flour you bought for us cost per pound?" She continued, "I have never understood prices before, so I don't know what the appropriate price is."

Wen Xian told Zhu Qing all the prices of the things she bought today.

After Zhu Qing heard this, he said: "The prices you bought are OK, and the prices of polished rice and white flour at that grain store are also right. Twenty cents per catty, the price is right."

All prices in Fucheng are controlled by the prefect.Especially for food, clothing, housing and transportation, there is a standard.

Therefore, it is unlikely that Wen Xian and the others will be deceived.

"Then the prices you brought for us are also at this price?" Wen Xian said, "Young Master Qing, please don't suffer a loss yourself. I look at the little money I have, but I can't buy as much food as before."

Even if Zhu Qing has a restaurant chain, there must be channels for purchasing goods.However, no matter how cheap things like food are, they will never be that cheap.

As the owner of the grain and oil shop said, it was so cheap that it didn’t even cover the capital.

However, Zhu Qing shook his head and said: "I have Zhuangzi in the south, and the rice I use every year is shipped from the south. It is cheap and can be sold for about fifteen cents.

Therefore, the eldest son does not need to have any psychological burden, I cannot lose my money. "

In fact, this is equivalent to a business without capital, and he can sell as much as he wants.

Wen Xian and the others didn't want much food, so they had little impact on him.

"How embarrassing is this." Wen Xian pursed her lips and said, "We appreciate Mr. Qing's kindness, but in the future we should pay according to the market price. Otherwise, we will be embarrassed to ask you for help again."

She is not very willing to owe favors or anything like that.After all, it is difficult to repay a debt of gratitude, and it will be troublesome if you owe too much.

Seeing her serious look, Zhu Qing could only nod and said: "Okay, do as the eldest son said."

"By the way." He continued, "I will leave Zhu San at home. If you need to go out, you can take him with you. He is familiar with the city and knows the prices of these things very well.

The most important thing is that he can protect the safety of both of you, so I feel more at ease. "

Although she was disguised as a man, she was still a woman, so he was still a little worried about going out alone.

Wen Xian did not refuse, but thanked him: "Then I would rather obey your orders than respect you. I'll thank Mr. Qing first."

Zhu Qing didn't stay long after he came back, and went out again in a panic.

Wen Xian didn't know what he was doing when he went out, and she didn't want to know.

She and Xia Zhi had lunch and went out again, but without Zhu San.

They planned to walk around the Yamen to see if they would find anything new.

You know, there are many dignitaries living near the Yamen of Guanping Mansion.

"Brother." Looking at the officials coming and going in the yamen, Xia Zhi said with some anxiety, "Do you think these people are loyal to you or not?"

Regardless of loyalty to the previous dynasty, it cannot be loyalty to Emperor Xingsheng.If they are loyal to Emperor Xingsheng, their future actions will be very restricted.

Wen Xian patted her hand and said, "No problem, no matter who it is, we won't deal with them. We'll find your people first."

They are just taking a look from a distance now, and as for the rest, they are not in a hurry at this moment.

Moreover, she felt that the prefect of Guanping Mansion should be a conservative and neutralist.

Live life behind closed doors, not hearing what is happening outside the window.
