The little girl of the general's house

Chapter 634 Foreign Goods
But considering the man in a carriage and such a topic, Li Yujiao didn't intend to answer.

I directly avoided Chen Zhuo's question, and asked him instead: "Just now I saw Mr. Chen packed two carts full of goods, what are they?"

Chen Zhuo is a simple-minded person, and he usually doesn't think too much in front of acquaintances.

When he heard Li Yujiao ask himself a question, he forgot what he asked just now.

He replied: "It's just ivory, rhino horn, spices and so on."

"So many, is Mr. Chen planning to go back to Ping'an County to open a shop?" Li Yujiao asked jokingly.

"It's not much! Some things are in a box, a little big but I'm afraid it will be damaged, and I put a lot of hay and other things in it."

Chen Zhuo explained solemnly, "I haven't been home for a long time, I brought some things over this trip, so I can please my father and mother. Besides, they are all novelties. In the future, my father will also take them as gifts. shot."

Li Yujiao nodded, and said again: "I wonder if the things Mr. Chen brought back this time can open my eyes?"

"now?"

"No, no, let's wait until the carriage stops. To be honest, none of us are at home for the New Year. We originally wanted to bring something back for the family. It's not yet Chinese New Year, and there are no shops. Open it. It would be the best if Mr. Chen could sell me a few pieces.”

"That's easy to say, you can pick it later, just take the one you fancy."

Chen Zhuo also talked about the exotic customs and feelings he had experienced abroad, and he was eloquent for a while, and his verbal skills were almost as good as Du Yan's.

When complaining at an inn at night.

Because the car was loaded with valuables, Chen Zhuo's people worked tirelessly to move all the goods to Chen Zhuo's room.

After unloading the goods, Chen Zhuo went to knock on the door of Xie Hejiang and Li Yujiao's room.

At that time, Li Yujiao was talking to Xie Hejiang about Bai He and Chen Zhuo, when she suddenly heard Chen Zhuo's voice from outside the door.

Li Yujiao was so frightened that she quickly closed her mouth, and said in a low voice, "It seems that you really can't talk about right and wrong behind people's backs, otherwise you will be scared to death sooner or later."

Xie Hejiang casually straightened her hair on the forehead, and said, "I'll go over and have a look."

The two stood at the door and talked, and the words were heard in Li Yujiao's ears.

It turned out that Chen Zhuo invited Li Yujiao to his room to see the Western gadgets he brought back this time.

Li Yujiao was very curious about these things, and immediately agreed.

Bringing valuables with them, Li Yujiao and Xie Hejiang closed the door, called Xie Feng from the next room, and entered Chen Zhuo's room together.

Chen Zhuo led the people in, and opened the boxes lined up one by one for Li Yujiao and the others to see.

Both Xie Hejiang and Xie Feng were seldom talkative, but the look of amazement and beauty in their eyes was obvious, and Li Yujiao was full of praise for these things.

I picked a few more and bought them, ready to take them home and give them to my family.

Chen Zhuo refused to accept the money at first, but he couldn't hold back Li Yujiao, so he had to accept some symbolically.

Li Yujiao then asked Chen Zhuo, "Master Chen has been traveling by water for more than half a year, right?"

"Yeah, maybe eight or nine months."

"You must have a good understanding of the routes and rules of going abroad?"

"It's okay," Chen Zhuo said, "What's the matter, Mrs. Xie also wants to go to sea?"

"That's not true, it's just that I've also inquired about the price of these items sold in the shop, but what the young master gave me just now was the cost price. It's profitable to calculate like this."
