Pinellia pastoral

Chapter 170 Delivery
The dotted fields are muddy yellow at first, and the blue sky and white clouds are reflected like a mirror on the surface of the water, and then they are covered with sparse green little by little.

The bean curd sticks in the workshop are already piled to the brim.

The day of delivery is getting closer.

After careful calculation, this time, everyone in the workshop was very serious, and no one went home to help because of the spring plowing, and did not delay the work at all. It was the most difficult Qiao Ni's family, and it was also her sister-in-law's natal family. Someone came over to help with the spring plowing, Su Youli was a little embarrassed, and went to wander around the fields outside every few days, for fear of missing someone's spring plowing.

Fortunately, everything is going according to plan.

Those who joined temporarily were also very diligent and never slacked off for a moment.

Yao shi works here in Pinellia, so he doesn't have to look at Su Qian shi's face every day, he even has some smiles on his face, and takes the wages back to Su Qian shi every day, and gags her.

On the contrary, it was Mrs. Zhou who heard that Mrs. Yao came here to cook, and it was not what she had promised at all. She rolled her eyes and wanted to find Ban Xia's theory, and wanted to come in to help. Two days early in the morning, he came over with his own rice bowl and asked for rice noodles. If you don’t give it, you can ask for it yourself. It’s just a bowl of rice noodles.

According to Lin Sa's report, Boss Tang is still in the county, scurrying around. It seems that he is unwilling to let it go, and he doesn't know if it will cause trouble during the delivery. Knowing who he is, he wouldn't put himself in it no matter what.

Madam Sun and Daniu went to Shiwo Village, and I don't know what happened to them. I heard that Dr. Shi was already looking for his son with great interest, and he made up his mind to watch the fun of Banxia's family.

Regarding the affairs in the city, Di Yan first came forward, and later he also brought Zhang Liu and Su Youli there. The contract was also signed, but the delivery deadline was more flexible.

When all this was at hand, Ban Xia finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Anyway, it's nothing more than delivery here, otherwise we can't let the things that have been driven out rot in our hands.

According to the current posture, even if Shi Lang can do things according to the contract, he will not think about selling it to him.
Ever since Di Yanla came back to Soybean, Li Shi's heart has settled down. In addition, he was kind, and then ran to the city to deal with these things. Afraid that he would be wronged, seeing that he was living in the original house, everything would be moved there.

Whenever she said something or even muttered, Li Shi always stood by Di Yan's side.

Ban Xia deeply felt that her position at home had become precarious.

Make her shake her head.

All the bean curd sticks were put away, but the people in the workshop did not disperse, and the table was set up in the yard under the moonlight. The meal was eaten, but there was some food on the table. The men played games and drank, and the women also rested Overwhelmed by the nerves that have been strained for a long time, I began to lengthen the east and west.

"Hurry up, I finally got this batch of bean curd sticks out, everyone will go and see tomorrow to see if he can come up with money!"

"Isn't it just that there is no benevolence and righteousness in business, but suddenly you say something like that, your heart is really vicious."

Those who didn't know what they said that day hurriedly asked again.

"What did you say? Said that this workshop will be his sooner or later, let us help him work!"

"It's beautiful to think..."

Insects are chirping, Pinellia is standing under the moonlight, tables and chairs are placed at the bean curd stick workshop and rice noodle workshop, adults are talking here, children are running around, and occasionally the wind blows across their cheeks Very refreshing.

She took a deep breath of the air, feeling indescribably comfortable.

"Have you thought about tomorrow?"

A slightly deep voice suddenly sounded beside him, and Ban Xia was startled, since this person walked without making any sound at all.

"Hmm." He replied reluctantly.

Di Yan stood by her side, looking at her somewhat tall and slender figure. Under the moonlight, her whole body was a little different from that of the day. The cold moonlight shone on her hair, casting some shadows on her face. moved.

There were not many ups and downs in his voice, "Isn't it too troublesome to transport all these out? Otherwise, you don't have to worry about it tomorrow..."

Ban Xia was very surprised, because this person always spoke very little, he asked if this delivery date was the time of delivery, Ban Xia naturally also put it off, but unexpectedly he still knew.

This was kind of boring, she felt that she had nowhere to hide in front of him, but she couldn't even see what he was doing.

Seeing that Banxia was sullen and silent, and his face didn't seem to have the usual joy, Di Yan continued, "The man surnamed Shi has been hanging around outside a lot these days, saying that it is impossible for the workshop to hand over the goods. Let him wait until tomorrow..."

"What do you want?" Ban Xia asked suddenly.

Di Yan was startled, watching her dark eyes staring at him motionlessly, those noisy voices of guessing fists seemed to become very far away, when he opened his mouth, he was almost about to speak.

The words turned around, "Why is it that I want to do something, but I just can't see it, Mu Jiujiu wanted to smash his shop a long time ago..."

After finishing speaking, he seemed to feel that there was no need to explain, so he turned around abruptly and left.

It's like appearing out of nowhere.

Really an awkward person.

Ban Xia sighed, and suddenly felt relieved, no matter whether he is a bandit or what, at least it seems that he has no malice towards his family.Who can not have a little secret.

When the moon was slanting to one side, everyone slowly dispersed.

The next day, at dawn, the yard was busy.

It was still prepared rice noodles, and most people ate a bowl with a splash.

Su Youli took the lead after leaving a few, took a carriage, and headed for the city.

At the appointed place, Shi Lang had already sat here with his legs crossed, holding the deed in his hand, and said loudly to the people around him, "It's really slow, today is the delivery date, don't blame me when the time comes. Violation of the deed is three times the price, but I don't know, which village of yours is worth a few thousand taels?!"

It was such a smug look.

Most of the people who passed by already understood what was going on, they couldn't see Shi Lang being so arrogant in their hearts, and secretly sighed for the Su family who had provoked this person, but no one came forward to talk to him.

But there are still a few people around Shi Lang, singing and singing together, the more they talk, the more they go too far.

This is what they saw when Ban Xia and the others got off the carriage.

Shi Lang glanced behind them, with a disdainful expression on his face, "You guys are here—"

After some things, Su Youli was able to calm down a little bit, and bowed to him, "Boss Tang, it's time for delivery today, let's see if your things are ready."

Seeing Su Youli like this, Shi Lang snorted, "What am I going to prepare, but you, who came here empty-handed, are you determined to go to the yamen?"

When he said this, the people around him also booed.

Ban Xia looked at these people with cold eyes, looked at their expressions, no need to ask, they were with him.

No wonder Di Yan said that he has found someone to make trouble, but it doesn't matter, let him make trouble, he will watch anyway.

Who made himself believe it.

Su Youli was not annoyed, and still said in a good-humored manner, "Boss Tang is joking, he's doing business in a decent manner, so why did he get involved in the affairs of the yamen? Kindness makes money."

Su Youli was originally simple-minded, but now he was smiling, and no one who looked at him would think that he was hiding anything in his heart.

Shi Lang only thought that they couldn't deliver the goods. After being blasted away that day, he also thought about it. It was probably the other side's trick. The soybeans brought back from other places are so good that it is impossible to produce more out of thin air, so he has nothing to be afraid of.

Only then did people let out the wind, not to mention that I avenged myself this time, but I was able to hold this workshop in my hands. When the time comes to run it outside, why can't I let myself live a good life of eating and drinking? .

The more I thought about it, the more I took it for granted, my complexion changed a little, and I said with a fake smile, "Boss Su, it was agreed when I signed the contract! This business of paying the money and delivering the goods last time, I almost went back to the village. If you can’t come back, what are you paying attention to to make money with harmony, now you should hurry up to deliver the goods, or else you will sue the yamen, and I will take the blame!”

Su Youli's face remained unchanged, and he smiled, "Didn't I come to ask if the things are ready? The delivery is ready, but the silver is ready to go? The warehouse is ready to go? Also, the manpower is ready to go. Is it? Boss Tang should take a look at the deed in hand, so as not to know who has entered the yamen when the time comes."

Hearing Su Youli's words, he became hardened, and the eyes of the few people around Shi Lang became unkind.

Two more came over, "You bumpkin, you're so proud of not being able to hand over something!"

"How did you talk! Do you really think prison food is so delicious?!"

He was about to push Su Youli with his hand, but Zhang Liu grabbed his hand when he was not on guard, "It's all for business, why bother pushing people, brother, this is just a joke."

Shi Lang saw that the ferocious expressions of the two men changed, and soon a smile appeared, and he glared at them with hatred, it's useless.

In fact, those two people smiled wryly, they couldn't even pull out their hands, what kind of way is this!

After all, Shi Lang glanced at the deed in his hand, trembling, "Did you see it at noon? If you can't hand it over at noon..."

The voice stopped.

He opened his mouth wide.

There were loud voices, and the ground on the bluestone slab shook. He saw something.

Carriages, wheelbarrows, pickled baskets, bamboo baskets, and some even bundled into two bundles, a pole and a horizontal pole, are all made of bright yellow bean curd sticks, which are particularly dazzling under the sun, gradually forming a long queue, Can't see the sides at all.
