Chapter 110

"Cooking food is no better than keeping stock in the seller. Lobsters are only available for a few months, and the last sale is only three times a month. After the summer flood season, there are not as many fish as there are now. Grandpa Wang is right. Going to the town is the way out."

Yun Lin thought for a while and said slowly: "Let's save money first, and plant the wheat after the autumn harvest. Then we can set up a stall in the town for the next winter, selling pancakes or steamed stuffed buns. It's always a good profit."

"It's enough for me to go to the mountain a few times a month, and I can go to the town to set up a stall in the rest of the time. If the business is still good, we don't need to live in the town if we go out early and return late."

"Hmm..." Ji Qingyan responded, but complained in her heart, she is not a bun Xishi, a big meat bun is only two yuan, and selling a thousand a day is only two taels of silver, and she is exhausted.

But... Yunlin's words opened her mind, and she began to think about opening a shop in the town again. Instead of setting up a small stall, why not just open a snack bar?

But what kind of snack bar can open a good business?First of all, you have to sell food that others don't have and tastes better than what others sell. Otherwise, how can you compete with those old experts in the town?

The next day is the market day, which is also the first market day in May after the Dragon Boat Festival.

Although the clouds were a little thick that day, it hadn’t rained yet. Many families went to the market together. Some bought for home use, and some sold the eggs, vegetables, chickens and ducks they had accumulated at home.

It was all the women who rushed into the town early, some carrying baskets on their backs and carrying baskets on their way, while others spent five Wen on the village ox carts.Bullock carts are not dedicated to running business, but to earn a small amount of money when they are free.

Yunlin also drove an ox cart over, but he didn't run out of business, he only brought Ji Qingyan, Wang Zhengshi and Aunt Wang, and two women from the village who just happened to be there came along.

Today, the family is still drying the fish, so each family only sent representatives to purchase the household goods in the last episode.

After arriving in the town, everyone got off the bullock cart and made an appointment to meet at the West Market Exit at noon.Afterwards, Yunlin drove the bullock cart and continued to move forward. Ji Qingyan didn't have anything to buy today, and she wanted to understand the environment of this town.

They strolled around the town leisurely, but soon found that the people on the East Street avoided them with a look of disgust. Some women even covered their noses with their sleeves, which seemed to mean that their peasant family was too smelly.

Ji Qingyan frowned and glanced at the woman who did the most obvious thing, curled her lips and endured it, but suddenly snapped her fingers shortly after the ox cart passed by.

The woman who was muttering to her companions about how disgusting it was for farmers to drive ox carts on the streets suddenly sneezed, and before she could lift her finger to rub her nose, she immediately sneezed a few more times.

Soon the woman felt like she had hay fever, sneezing non-stop and tickling her face and neck. She didn't feel anything, but the women who were with her immediately distanced themselves from her, and He covered his nose and mouth in horror.

"Sister-in-law Jinhua, what kind of strange disease do you have? Hurry up and go to the doctor's office to have a look?"

"Yes, it's so scary, isn't it contagious?"

"Go quickly, there are everyone on this street, don't pass it on to others."

"... What is this strange disease? I'm just taking it as a disease?"

A young woman named Mrs. Jinhua is the proprietress of a jewelry shop in the town. Today she was invited out by some women from a nearby shop to go shopping. She hasn’t reached the West Market yet, but she just sneezed a few times. Strangely ill?
But the woman in the company took a few steps back, and soon someone said that she had something to do and ran away, and the other women also ran away immediately after seeing this.

"Yeah? What do you mean!" Aunt Jinhua looked at the street where there were a crowd of people bustling with people just now, but now she was the only one left.

But I still sneeze non-stop, I don’t scratch my face so badly, I just want to go to the doctor’s office to get some medicine, maybe it’s a cold.But soon she found that the pedestrians around saw her and ran away in fright.

"What do you mean, you guys! I don't know my old lady!" Aunt Jin Hua was so angry that she pointed at the person who ran away and cursed.

"Isn't this the proprietress of Ruyi Jewelry Shop? Why do you come out for a walk with such a face? Go see the doctor, don't be sick."

People who knew him kindly reminded them, but they still kept away for fear of infecting themselves.

"Face?" Aunt Jinhua realized the problem now, her face was really itchy and wanted to be scratched, did she have a rash?Now he didn't dare to continue shopping, and immediately covered his face with his sleeves and ran to Ning'an Medical Hall.

That's right, she did suffer from hay fever, but it was just a little spell cast by Ji Qingyan.

At this time, Ji Qingyan didn't know what happened at the last intersection, but she could imagine what it would be like. She was in a good mood all the way, grinning secretly from time to time.

That Jinhua sister-in-law will spend two taels of silver to see a doctor. Whether she can get better depends on Ji Qingyan's mood, but Ji Qingyan's spell lasts for half a month. I am afraid that she will need to take medicine to cure it, and she will need two taels of silver Bar.

Yunlin drove an ox cart and took Ji Qingyan around the whole town, and would introduce the shops when they came across them, but they didn't go to the places where people lived, so they wandered around the big and small streets, and then returned to the West Market.

The business in the West Market is similar, but the level of operation is lower. It is mainly favored by farmers and poor people in the town, but it also has a complete range of business items.

"Yan'er, the iron shop is here." Yun Lin parked the cart at the door of an iron shop, and turned to look at Ji Qingyan.Ji Qingyan immediately jumped off the ox cart, and waited for Yunlin to put the ox rope on the pillars outside the iron shop, and then walked to the front of the blacksmithing stove together.

The business of the iron shop is very transparent. The blacksmith has set up a blast stove and iron pier at the shop's entrance, holding a kitchen knife and a hoe, and there is a long table next to it, on which there are finished products, which can be bought and sold directly.

Ji Qingyan looked carefully, but there was nothing she wanted, so she hesitated for a moment, took out a yellow note and asked, "Uncle, can you hit these two things?"

The blacksmith looked at the yellow paper in her hand and was stunned. He glanced at her in astonishment, then at Yunlin, then looked back at what was drawn on the paper, but he didn't take it. ?”

Yun Lin was also a little dumbfounded, because the yellow paper Ji Qingyan took out was the yellow talisman she had seen a lot at the door of her house that day, and this girl drew a small picture on the back of the talisman with a gray pen.

"This one is so big... This one is so..." Ji Qingyan immediately pointed to each small picture and gestured with her hand, and then asked, "How much?"

"Who are you from Yunlin's family?" The blacksmith had already noticed the white cloth belt on Ji Qingyan's head, looked at Yunlin suspiciously, and asked first.

"..." Yunlin was a little embarrassed at once, how should Yan'er answer this, he was about to speak, but Ji Qingyan spoke first without any embarrassment.
