The space farmer comes to farm

Chapter 75 Grain and Firewood

Clothes and food matters have been settled, so the next things will be more fragmented.

The next stop was the dry goods store, Su Yu still didn't get off the car, Jiang Qi walked into the store with the bag of chestnuts.

Not long after, Jiang Qi came back again, Su Yu saw him walking back to the car, and hurriedly asked, "How is it?"

Jiang Qi smiled slightly, "The shopkeeper said he wants it, and I'll ask him to send someone to fetch it in the afternoon."

Su Yu nodded reassuringly when he heard the words, and then asked, "The price?"

"We'll wait for them to go in the afternoon and have a look at the things." Jiang Qi explained.

Su Yu expressed his understanding of this, and it is indeed difficult to give a price without seeing the real thing.

Because two groups of people were going home in the afternoon, Su Yu and the others didn't waste any more time, and hurried to the grocery store to buy all the seasonings they needed, as well as kerosene, candles and other small things.

After buying, Jiang Qi drove the car towards the house, and when he arrived at the house, it was already half past noon.

Su Yu hurriedly made lunch, and the three of them had just eaten when they heard the bell ring.

Jiang Qi strode forward, but Su Yu didn't follow, but went directly to Kuayuan.

Sure enough, after a while, Jiang Qi was seen leading two carts in behind.

Su Yu looked at the car and found that they were all packed in bags. It seemed that the food they bought had arrived.

Jiang Qi directed the people to move the grain out of the car and put it in the storage room next to the kitchen.

After unloading all the food, Su Yu stepped forward to pay the rest of the money, and then Jiang Qi sent them out of the courtyard, and went out from the courtyard over there.

As soon as the food deliverers left, they saw two or three empty carts approaching. Jiang Qi knew at a glance that this was someone who had come to pull chestnuts.

Waiting for the three carts to arrive, a man in his forties got out of the first cart. Jiang Qi knew him. This was the cashier of the dry goods store. He had seen him in the morning.

The two exchanged a few words, then led the people into the courtyard, left the cart in the courtyard, and then took the accountant and a few assistants to the main courtyard.

As soon as they entered the main courtyard, they saw Su Yu and Su Yan sitting in the corridor.

Jiang Qi introduced the identity of the visitor, and then they came to the west wing together.

Entering the west wing, Mr. Accountant saw the sacks, which must be filled with chestnuts.

"Sir, take a look, everything is here." Su Yu stepped forward with a smile, and said to Mr. Accountant.

The accountant went up, brought every bag with him, looked through it carefully, and finally felt relieved

Heaving a sigh of relief, the accountant smiled at Jiang Qi and Su Yu, and said, "The things are good, there is nothing to say. Next, let's talk about the price."

Su Yu smiled after hearing this, "What's the price you said. We don't understand these either."

After hearing this, the accountant lowered his head and pondered for a while, then raised his head and said to Su Yu, "These are all the best things, how about it, I'll give you four cents per catty, how about it?"

Su Yu and Jiang Qi glanced at each other, both satisfied with the price.

So Jiang Qi simply nodded, "Okay, let's check the scale."

The big cart brought by the accountant came with a large scale and a large bamboo basket by the way.

He asked the buddy to carry the bags of chestnuts to Kuayuan, then took the scale and the big bamboo basket out of the car and placed them on the ground.

He put the big bamboo basket on the scale and weighed it, then opened a sack and poured all the chestnuts into the basket.

This was to see if the bag was fake, Su Yu and Jiang Qi both understood, so they just stood aside and watched.

They brought back a total of 35 bags of chestnuts, one bag each for Wu and Yang, and the remaining 33 bags were peeled off the fur balls outside the chestnuts, and when they were put into sacks, there were only ten bags left. Only five bags.

Su Yu kept one bag for himself, and had the other fourteen bags brought and weighed.

The final weight was 520 catties, four Wen coins per catty, a total of [-] Wen coins, that is, ten taels of silver and eighty Wen coins.

Jiang Qi took the ten taels of silver from the accountant, and pushed back the remaining eighty taels, "Please trouble me, this is my invitation to the gentlemen to drink tea."

Eighty Wen is not too much, but it is not too little. If you give it to these people, you can sell it well. In the future, maybe there will be time to deal with it.

After sending this group of people away, they were really free, and it was already mid-afternoon.

Su Yu didn't waste time, went into the house, took out eight taels of silver from the cash box, put a purse for four taels, then put the two purses in his sleeve, talked to Jiang Qi, and went to The village went.

She is going to distribute the money to Wu and Yang.

On the second day when Mrs. Yang delivered the food, Mrs. Yang braved the rain, pushed a flatbed cart, and delivered the food with her husband.

Regardless of whether she came because she knew that Wu Shi had sent her off, or if she had other ideas, Su Yu would keep this feeling in mind.

First, he went to Yang's house, gave Yang the purse, and said that the chestnuts had been sold, then went to Wu's house, and also left the purse. Su Yu refused Wu's persuasion, and left quickly.

In fact, the Su family lives next door to the Wu family. Su Yu doesn't want to see the Su family for the time being. She still remembers the disgusting incident last time, especially after the relationship between her and Jiang Qi has progressed. She doesn't want to see the Su family even more. people.

Today was also lucky, I really didn't run into the Su family, and the door of the Su family was tightly closed.

Su Yu didn't know until later that Su An felt ashamed and stayed behind closed doors for a long time.

When he got up the next day, the sky was gloomy. Jiang Qi looked outside and said that it might rain again, and they had better get some firewood back first.

Su Yu asked Su Yan to watch the house at home, and she and Jiang Qi went to Yunwu Mountain with a flatbed cart.

Why not drive the mule cart?Because the carriage is too small, there is not much firewood in it.

Both of them were strong and fast. They each went to pick up dry firewood, tied them into bundles with the hemp rope they brought, and after a few bundles, they pulled them back to the flatbed cart and put them all on the flatbed cart.

When the stack of firewood on the cart was high, Jiang Qi pushed the cart back, unloaded the firewood back into the courtyard, and then came back to continue loading.

The two of them worked for a whole day, filling up the underside of the shed across the courtyard, and piled a row of firewood by the wall, and then they stopped.

Sure enough, as soon as Su Yu opened his eyes the next day, he heard the sound of rain crackling outside the window. It seemed that it was raining heavily.

In fact, Su Yu can't say that he doesn't like rain, it's just that it doesn't keep raining.

The rain continued for seven or eight days before it stopped, and the three of Su Yu had stayed at home for seven or eight days.

It finally cleared up that day, and Su Yu suddenly remembered that the passion fruit could be harvested for the second time, but he didn't know if the rain in the past few days would have any effect on the fruit.
