Since we had hired a bullock cart, we were not so rushed in the morning.

Lian Yun got up early in the morning and made a dozen vegetable buns. Lin Jiaojiao ate the vegetable buns and drank millet porridge, and there were eggs, but she didn't eat them. She gave them to Zhang Lianyu.

She thought she could buy a jar to pickle sauerkraut so that she could have something to go with her breakfast.

Suddenly I felt like there were so many things to buy.

After breakfast, Lin Jiaojiao picked up her hat and two bamboo baskets and called Lian Yun and the others to set off.

When I arrived at the door of Lin Dadan's house, I found that in addition to Lin Dadan, there was also a woman holding a jar and leaving with a lost look.

Lin Jiaojiao mistakenly thought that she was also going to the town by ox cart, so she said to Lin Dadan, "Auntie Lin, it's okay, if she wants to go to the town, we can go together."

Since the car has been chartered, Aunt Lin can earn a little more, so why not?

Lin Dadan: "No, she thought I was going to Chongkan Town and asked me to help her sell the things."

Lin Jiaojiao saw the woman leaving holding a small jar of something, and continued to ask with some curiosity.

"What are you selling?"

"She collects honey from wild beehives in the mountains. She negotiates the price with the owner in Chongkan Town, and sometimes asks me to deliver it."

Honey? That's the good stuff!

She quickly turned around and chased after her. Fortunately, the woman didn't go far and she caught up with her in a short while.

"and many more!"

The woman stopped and turned around, looking at Lin Jiaojiao, who was the focus of everyone's discussion recently, and asked diligently.

"Sister Jiaojiao, what...what happened?"

Lin Jiaojiao looked at the person in front of her who was a head shorter than her, thin, with dry yellow hair. He was a stranger named Chen who lived on the edge of the village and had fled famine to settle here.

The original owner had some impression of her. Her father had a chronic illness when he gave birth to her while fleeing from famine. After her mother settled here, she became an apprentice to an old doctor in the neighboring village. Her mother was considered a barefoot doctor in the village. The original owner had taken Father Lin to see her mother several times.

This girl's name is Chen Cheng and she knows the original owner, so why does she seem so afraid of her?

"Can I see your honey?"

"Huh? Oh oh oh, okay."

Chen Cheng reacted, opened the jar, and moved in front of Lin Jiaojiao.

She looked at the thick orange-yellow liquid in the jar and was delighted. It looked really good.

"How much does this can cost?"

Chen Cheng was stunned at first, then he said awkwardly: "One hundred coins."

Someone had asked her before how much she wanted to buy it for, but when they heard the price, they all shook their heads and scolded her, saying that they were obviously picked in vain and why people from the same village were selling it at such a high price, and that she was crazy about money.

Lin Jiaojiao thought the price was okay after hearing it, after all, she had always spent money lavishly.

"I want it. If you have honey in the future, please send it to my house. I want all of it."

Then she took out a hundred coins and gave them to Chen Cheng, and another coin for travel expenses, asking Chen Cheng to deliver the jar to her home.

Chen Cheng didn't ask for the travel fee, and said with a look of surprise: "Thank you, Sister Jiaojiao, I'll send it right away."

Lin Jiaojiao watched Chen Cheng leave, then turned back to the ox cart. Lian Yun was already on the cart with the child, waiting for her.

Baizi Town is farther away than Chongkan Town, and it took an extra quarter of an hour to get there by ox cart.

When they arrived at the town, it was difficult for the ox cart to enter the alley, so Lianyun had to be sent to the entrance of the alley. Lianyun, holding the child, kept inviting Lin Jiaojiao and the others to come in and sit and walk, but she refused every time on the excuse that she had to go back early.

Lin Dadan had to guard the ox cart and did not go shopping with Lin Jiaojiao. Lin Jiaojiao carried a bamboo basket and went into the market first.

She first went to the pawnshop to pawn the hairpin that Lin Xiaoxiao had soiled. She bought it for about one or two taels of silver, but ended up getting only six hundred coins, which hurt her heart.

Then I bought a big jar and put it at the bottom of the bamboo basket. I also bought a can of fine salt, soy sauce and vinegar. I went to the spice store and bought star anise, cinnamon and bay leaves.

I went to the vegetable market and bought white radish and cowpea, as well as a lot of ginger and green peppercorns.

After searching for a while, I finally found someone selling pears and bought a dozen.

After buying all these, the bamboo basket was no longer able to hold anything, so I went back to Lin Dadan's ox cart, put down the bamboo basket, and exchanged it for an empty one to continue shopping.

I went to the grain store and bought 20 kilograms of rice and flour each, and then went to the butcher's shop and bought 5 kilograms of ribs and 3 kilograms of pork.

I'll go back and ask Lin Yizhi to make some radish and pork ribs soup. I'm drooling just thinking about it.

Then I found an empty alley, opened the mall and exchanged a can of yeast powder for 1 point, two cans of white sugar for 6 points, and chili peppers and chili peppers for 1 point each.

He went to the wine shop and bought two jars of white wine, held them in his arms, and put them next to the ox cart.

"Auntie Lin, wait for me a moment, there are still some things I haven't bought."

"Okay, no rush."

Lin Jiaojiao first bought a bamboo basket, then went straight to the alley. When she opened the mall, she still had 21 points. The most points she gained yesterday was by giving the hairpin to Lin Yizhi, which added 5 points. If it wasn’t already late, she would have wanted to give him all the hairpins she had made.

I exchanged ten kilograms of lime, ten kilograms of hemp knives, and five kilograms of perlite, spending a total of 5 points.

The remaining points were directly exchanged for three cans of loquat paste, spending 15 points, and there was 1 point left.

He put the things in a bamboo basket and put it on his back. He then went to the brick shop and bought one hundred green bricks at three cents a brick. He paid the waiter and asked him to help carry the bricks to the ox cart.

After moving all the things onto the ox cart and sorting them out, they realized that it was already time for dinner. It would not be convenient for Lin Dadan to invite her to a restaurant for dinner since he had to guard the ox cart and the things.

Lin Jiaojiao said hello to Lin Dadan and went to buy twenty meat-filled sesame cakes. While the old lady was making the sesame cakes, she smelled them from the side, and as soon as one was ready, she couldn't wait to eat it.

It's crispy and delicious.

She went back to the ox cart and took five pancakes for Lin Dadan.

"Auntie Lin can only treat you to this at noon, please don't refuse."

Lin Dadan was about to refuse, but after hearing her say that, he readily took it. After taking it, he found that there were five pieces of cake inside the oil paper.

"There are too many Jiaojie'er. One is enough for me."

"One is not enough. If you can't finish the rest, take it back to Uncle Zhou and Feifei and let them have a taste too."

Lin Dadan looked at Lin Jiaojiao embarrassedly. Lin Jiaojiao had already given Zhou Xiaofeng the money for the car rental yesterday, as well as the sweet and throat-soothing rock candied pear. Now she had given him five sesame cakes. She felt really bad for taking so many benefits.

Lin Jiaojiao sat on the ox cart, took a bite of the sesame cake, and calculated that she had spent about two taels of silver today.

She looked at Lin Dadan who was sitting in front herding cattle, and thought of Chen Cheng in the morning. If she really wanted to make bread and sell it, after she went to the city to negotiate the price, could she also let Lin Dadan deliver the goods every day?

The more I thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. The more excited I became, I couldn't wait to take action. I didn't expect that she would also start a business. I have never experienced a beating in the real world, and I hope I don't have to experience it here either.
