I'm not a pet

Chapter 327

For several days, Meishan's business was particularly good.

On the first day, although he thought of occupying a better stall in the square, when he arrived at the square with the burden, he found that other vendors had gone earlier...

In the end, he had no choice but to park the load on the street not far outside the square, and there was no shortage of people coming and going.

Among the burdens are various objects made from the bamboo he cut down outside the inn.There are bamboo mats and mats of different sizes, as well as bamboo baskets and plaques, and some small gadgets such as bamboo horses and bamboo birds are woven with leftover materials.

He stopped to let go of his burden, and he was embarrassed again for a while.Listening to the constant hawking and yelling from the square, he hesitated whether he should also raise his voice on the side of the road to attract passers-by.

Just as he was hesitating, a few passing women stopped in front of the burden.

As everyone knows, the handsome man doesn't need to yell, and he just stops by the side of the road, which is a unique scenery that attracts people's attention.

Seeing those women staring at him intently, and what's more, it seemed that someone was about to throw a handkerchief or a sachet, he blushed and asked, "How many girls want to buy bamboo mats?"

Following his inquiry, the women noticed the objects in his burden of different sizes, shapes and purposes.

"Ah! This bamboo basket is really exquisite!"

"There are bamboo mats? Hey! It's much smoother and cooler than straw mats!"

"How did you make such a realistic bamboo butterfly?"

Seeing that the women finally shifted their attention from him to the items for sale, Mei Shan subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief: "These items are all made by my own hands... er... cheap and good quality, and the quality is guaranteed!"

Hearing the yelling from the other side of the square, he began to publicize what he had learned.

Obviously, "knitting by hand" is more attractive to women than "low price, good quality and guaranteed quality"...

"This little brother is not only handsome, but also has a pair of skillful hands..."

"The bamboo mat woven by such a handsome little brother must be extremely comfortable..."

……

Meishan, who had already experienced the storm in Ruyixuan, was still blushing when he heard the comments from several women, but he still did not forget to make an offer in time:

"Bamboo mats are eight coins, bamboo mats are bigger, four coins are smaller, and three coins are smaller. Bamboo baskets and bamboo plaques are all three coins. These small things are worth one coin."

After quoting the price, a woman handed over five coins: "Brother, I want a bamboo mat..."

Mei Shan was excited for a moment, it was the first time in his life that he earned eight coins with his own craftsmanship!

Following the purchase of the first woman, the remaining women also bought different items one after another.It's just that when they handed over the money, they always intentionally or unintentionally touched his hand that received the money.

Mei Shan collected the money excitedly, while thinking, before going out tomorrow, he must ask Jiuer to change his face, preferably the old and ugly one... Yes, he has to make another bamboo basket for money, It would be good to let the guests throw the Mafa currency directly into the bamboo basket, so as to avoid physical contact...

On the first day, within two hours, everything in his burden was sold out.

If it is said that at the beginning it was indeed because of his person that those women were attracted to buy those items, but after that, many customers were amazed by his exquisite craftsmanship.There were even a few guests who lived at home that day, because they couldn't buy the items they wanted, they paid him a deposit in advance, and made an appointment to deliver the goods early the next morning.

Before it was time for lunch, he returned to the inn with an empty load, and handed over all the income of the day to Meng Jiu.

When Mengjiu finished counting the harvest of the day, she exclaimed: "56 coins... In less than two hours, I sold 56 coins! Brother Xiaoshan, you are too capable!"

Hearing Jiu'er's amazing praise, Mei Shan blushed again, and walked into the bamboo forest with a knife and ax to get busy.

From today's perspective, the various objects he wove are still very popular. Taking advantage of the people's rush to buy them, he made more, so that he could earn more money to supplement his family.

"Brother Xiaoshan, I have never seen you knitting these objects before. How come you are so proficient now?"

Seeing the neatly split bamboo strips shuttle quickly in Mei Shan's hands, the embryonic form of bamboo mats soon appeared.

"Tuer Meishui walked the desert with me when I was young. In order to familiarize him with the desert terrain, he followed me to measure almost every piece of sand with my legs in those years. The desert environment is harsh and difficult. There is no sale in the Pinmafa Continent, so I tried to make it myself, and over time, I learned a lot..."

When it comes to the naughty but filial apprentice Mei Shui, Mei Shan's beautiful peach eyes are full of tenderness and doting.

"Brother Xiaoshan, you actually accepted an apprentice?" Meng Jiu was curious but puzzled.

Because of Meishan's profound mana, her face has remained unchanged for thousands of years and her lifespan is much longer than ordinary people. It is because of the Binglian back then that she has all these by accident.

Back then, she was so yearning for an ageless appearance and a long lifespan.But when she got all this, she realized how painful it was.

Over the long years, she has also met friends and neighbors who she wanted to get close to, but after decades of working, seeing those friends and neighbors whom she had treated with sincerity, one by one died in front of her. , she could no longer accept this wave of life and death.

In the hundreds of years after that, she was afraid of contacting people, afraid of seeing those people she treated sincerely, and always left her one by one.

Mei Shan naturally understood the meaning of her question. Everything that Meng Jiu experienced was also the pain that had troubled him for hundreds of years.It's just that Mei Shui was an accident in his millennium...

"Shui'er was abandoned by his parents on the border of the desert since he was a child, and I happened to meet him. Perhaps this is the fate between me and him..."

He has never regretted adopting Meishui.If he hadn't been accompanied by Mei Shui these years, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to survive the last 20 years, then he wouldn't wait for the man of destiny, and wouldn't meet Meng Jiu again.

What's more, Mei Shui's cultivation aptitude is excellent, he only needs to teach all the exercises once, and Mei Shui can quickly grasp the essence of them and practice them to the highest level.In just ten years, Mei Shui has mastered all his magic techniques.

This kind of cultivation speed was unattainable even for him who was 20 years old.

He believes that in time, Tuer Meishui's cultivation will surpass that of him back then!With the accumulation of time and the improvement of Meishui's own cultivation, it is not difficult to achieve a lifespan longer than ordinary people.

Thinking of his apprentice Meishui, Mei Shan remembered that he had promised him before leaving that if he returned to Oasis City this time, he would definitely bring back his wife...

Shui'er's teacher's wife... Thinking of this, he lowered his head and weaved the bamboo mat in his hand more quickly, but his eyes were dimmed.

The scene in front of Ruyixuan's door that night has been deeply hurting his heart.

In this life, will he still be able to find his wife for Shui'er?
