six-fingered peasant girl

Chapter 37 Borrowing Land
"Little money fan, don't push yourself too hard." Being ridiculed by Su Liu, Song Xiao's patience suddenly faded away.

"You're in a hurry." Su Liu followed his example and clicked his tongue, put down the ingot in his hand, and said, "I don't want money, you promise me something, and I'll take it."

Song Xiao became vigilant, with some precautions in his eyes.

Su Liu glanced at Wu Gang, then looked at Song Xiao and said, "Looking at your wealth, you should be a person with status and status."

Su Liu thinks she still has a wink when looking at people. This Song Xiao, with a radiant demeanor, is definitely not as simple as an ordinary nouveau riche, and the black-faced god is not an ordinary bodyguard. Woolen cloth.

Not to mention Song Xiao's identity, but having a policeman by his side is not as simple as an ordinary person.

After watching too many novels and TV dramas, Su Liu is too aware that life in ancient times is as cheap as mud, especially ordinary people like them, if they are a little careless, they will provoke someone and lose their lives, so she has to find a backer to protect her.

"I don't ask you anything, I just ask you to do three things for me, and the hairpin will be returned to you." Su Liu stretched out three fingers.

Song Xiao narrowed his long and narrow eyes, and said with a sneer, "I don't have to have that hairpin either." He stood up after speaking, he, Song Xiao, hated threats the most in his life.

Su Liu frowned, stood up and said, "If you don't repay your kindness, is this what a gentleman does?"

The corners of Song Xiao's lips curled up coldly, without turning his head, he said: "The hairpin is worth thousands of gold, isn't it enough to repay your kindness? You just pulled me out of the trap."

Su Liu pursed her lips, a little unwilling, and didn't want to miss such a good opportunity, so she chased after him, took Song Xiao's hand and said, "That's one thing, you don't have to do anything, if I'm in trouble, stand up Just stand behind me and support me."

Su Liu flattered Song Xiao for a while, and said all the good things, but this person was unmovable, even his expression didn't change, and gradually, his voice became quieter. Could it be that it doesn't work, and he can only ask for money?

Su Liu turned her head to look at the ingot on the table, pursed her lips, if that was the case, there was nothing she could do, as long as the ten taels of silver were saved, it wouldn't be unbearable.

It's a pity that after so much difficulty, I met someone who seemed to have some status, but it didn't work out.

Her expression changed several times, Song Xiao could see it clearly, seeing her frowning, showing regret, and annoyance, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

"Why do you think I have the ability to support you?" He asked suddenly.

Su Liu was taken aback, and immediately said: "Although I don't know who you are, young master, but the person next to you, hehe, is a fast catcher. I think you two have a good relationship, hehe."

The corners of Song Xiao's mouth twitched immediately, could this little money fan have taken a fancy to Wu Gang's name as a police officer?

He snorted and turned his head away. The peasant girl had a wink, but it's a pity that she was just too fussy.

"Only once?" He squinted at Su Liu.

Su Liu was startled, and asked stupidly, "What time?" Then she understood, and said with a smile on her face, "That's natural."

After a pause, she said again: "If it's done twice." Seeing Song Xiao's face darken again, she hurriedly smiled: "Once, once."

But he said in his heart, he looks so handsome, but his temperament is uncertain, people can't figure out his temper, it is said that the sons of the rich and nobles have a tight temper, the ancients did not deceive me!
Since it was past noon, Su Liu and Song Xiao made an appointment to deliver the hairpin tomorrow.

"Send it to the Baicao Hall in the town." Song Xiao dropped a sentence and took Wu Gang away, not forgetting to take back the twelve ingots on the table before leaving.

"Stingy." Su Liu shrugged her nose at his back, and when she turned her head and saw that the dishes on the table hadn't moved, she grinned again and shouted loudly: "Xiaoer, pack."

Coming out of Jiuxian, Su Liu walked around the main streets of the town again, surveying the market and seeing if there was any way to go.

Now the Daqi Dynasty is peaceful and prosperous, and it has only been eight years since he ascended the throne. He is wise and wise. Under his rule, Daqi dances and dances, prosperity and prosperity, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and there is no war, so the tax is not too heavy.

Baise Town is a big town in Changping County. The town is prosperous and has a large population. You can find all kinds of shops, such as silk and satin, jewelry, ready-made clothing shops, tea and antiques, etc.

Walk into a seed store at random, and the clerk will come up to greet you enthusiastically: "Girl, what kind of seeds do you want to buy? Our Qingji Miscellaneous Grains Store only has new ones, and you can't find them."

Su Liu smiled and said, "I'll just take a look."

"Okay, if you need anything, just call me girl." The guy said with a smile, and went to greet others without mentioning it.

Su Liu turned around in the shop. Qingji was indeed a big shop, with common crops. She looked around, and suddenly her eyes fell on two red objects beside the curtain in the hallway.

This, she has been wearing it for so long, but she has never seen such a thing anywhere?
Su Liu was overjoyed, and quickly called Xiaoer over, pointing to the two crescent-shaped objects and asked excitedly: "Brother, do you have that seed?"

"Ah, girl, that's chili peppers, not seeds. They're not edible. They're just decorative pendants, implying prosperity." The boy was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

Chili, also known as chili pepper, was the first time Su Liu saw it in this place, the bright red in his memory, the hot and spicy taste immediately aroused the greed in his stomach.

In her previous life, although Su Liu was from the south, she had a special liking for spicy food because of the need to socialize frequently for work, and for various dinners, especially when paired with wine, it was even more delicious.

Su Liu swallowed her saliva, her eyes were as bright as stars, she looked at the little brother and asked, "Then do you have the seeds of this spicy pepper in your shop?"

The young man smiled slightly and said: "This is something our master brought back from the West Sea, but there are seedlings of this spicy pepper, but those are all potted plants, and they are not edible."

Su Liu staggered, the corner of her mouth twitched, and said: "Brother, can you take me to have a look?"

Naturally, this was done. The young man led Su Liu through the hallway, and came to a yard behind the shop. There were also many crop seedlings in it, and it was lush green, very green.

"No, this is the potted plant of the pepper." The boy pointed to the two potted plants on the railing and said, "It's just that it's green."

Su Liu walked over to take a look, and immediately smiled and narrowed her eyes. These are peppers that haven't matured yet, and they will turn red when they are ripe. Now there are only a few small peppers, but she is already ecstatic.

"Brother, can you sell me this hot pepper?" Su Liu raised her head and asked.

"Girl, this item is not edible, it's just for display, it's useless if you buy it." The young man looked at Su Liu's clothes, and said: "Besides, it's not cheap."

Seeing that this girl is not a rich owner, she will not buy it back and put it on display. The owner said that if someone buys it, it is fine, but since she came back from the sea, the price is not cheap.

"How much will it cost?" Su Liu hesitated.

"One tael of silver per pot."

So expensive!
Su Liu took a deep breath, and subconsciously pressed the broken piece of silver in her arms. Her entire net worth was only two taels of silver, and this was obtained in exchange for the tiger skin she begged from Uncle Ning.

But, if this chili is planted?The value is self-evident.

"My little brother, do you mean that this hot pepper comes from overseas? Don't we all have one?" She asked worriedly.

"Of course it is." The boy raised his chin, proudly said triumphantly: "Where is our Qingji, it is one of the largest seed stores in Daqi, with semicolons all over Daqi, and now it is about to open again." No.30 has eight semicolons..."

"Stop." Su Liu hurriedly stopped him, and said, "Based on what you said, we haven't had this hot pepper yet."

The young man nodded and said, "This is only available overseas. Our boss looked at it and brought it back because it meant something good."

Su Liu thought about it right away, mixed with a big surprise. Chili is a good thing. If it can be grown in large quantities, it can be sold to various restaurants as seasoning, and it can also be used to make chili oil, chili sauce, etc.

You know, in a poor family, not to mention big fish and meat, there is a good vegetable here, but the chili sauce is different, spicy and fragrant, these are all good things to eat, even if there is no vegetable, Put some hot sauce and you can have a full meal.

Thinking of this, Su Liu suppressed the excitement in her heart and said, "Brother, I bought this hot pepper."

After handing over the hard-earned money all at once, Su Liu was sad for a while, but she was worried, where should these two pots of pepper be put?

But they haven't left the Su family yet, they don't have any land, nothing, where should they grow it?Even living is a problem.

The Su family is absolutely impossible, not to mention the people in that room, and there is no land to grow it. The Su family has a vegetable garden, but she dare not plant it on the Su family's land. Who the hell, she doesn't want the fruits of her labor to be taken over by that family's best products, which are the foundation of her wealth.

Su Liu felt frustrated for the first time, looking at the two pots of hot peppers he had bought, his eyebrows twisted like a rope.

Squatting at the door of Qingji, Su Liu looked at all kinds of passers-by with her bulging cheeks, feeling very depressed.

Suddenly, a familiar figure came into view, her eyes lit up, her mind turned, she carefully put two pots of chili trees into her back basket, and followed.

Ning Lazi walked towards his small house with a basket on his back, until he was almost close to the door, when he heard the sound of footsteps that were not too far away, he stopped.

"How long are you going to follow?" He stared at Su Liu with a very unfriendly tone, from the town to home, what does this girl want to do?
Su Liu stepped forward with a smile, a pair of deep pear dimples at the corners of her mouth especially attracted people's attention, and said very familiarly: "Uncle, this is a return from selling prey, and the harvest is good."

Ning Lazi snorted, turned around and pushed open the door of the yard, didn't he ask the question knowingly?
Su Liu chased after him unceremoniously, and Ning Lazi frowned, turned around and said, "You are an unmarried girl from Yunying, what does it look like to run around a man for two days, I'm not afraid of others watching Just gossip and don't go back."

Su Liu blinked, pursed her lips, and said indifferently: "Uncle, I really have something to talk to you about when I come here."

"I have nothing to say to you, get out!" Ning Lazi said next, put the back basket by the door, picked up the wine and meat in the back basket, walked into the house, and slammed the door.

Really bad temper, Su Liu looked at the wooden door that shook several times, and muttered in a low voice.

Putting down the basket, took out two pots of peppers, Su Liu ran to the back of the house to take a look, sure enough, there were only two or three rows of green vegetables planted in that piece of land, probably because it was not well taken care of, and it was a little wilted. Look next to the vegetable field, a small mountain stream flows down.
