Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger
Chapter 136 A Trip to the County
Hearing that there was a bird hanging on Gu Qinghan's stick, many Japanese fruits stood on tiptoe curiously and took a look, very curious.
But he could only see a black mass, and when he heard that he was injured, he looked away. "Brother Qinghan, when you have recovered from your injuries, I can go and see you." Xuanyu looked up and asked Gu Qinghan.
"can."
"It's getting late, so let's go back. You should also go to bed early. You should arrange the fence as soon as possible. As for the wild boar, I will help you sell it tomorrow morning." Village Chief Gu gave his instructions again, then turned and walked out of the yard, with Gu Qinghan following closely behind him.
Xuyuan nodded and said that he would build the fence, and it would be great if someone could help.
But whether this can stop the wild boars is another matter. I can only give myself psychological comfort. The most regrettable thing is the food, and I have to arrange to dig a cellar.
"We are going back too. Yuan girl, there is food on the stove, remember to eat." Uncle Wang and Uncle Liu waved and left the yard.
"Okay, sorry to bother Uncle Wang and Uncle Liu. Take care."
The wide-open gate was finally closed, and after a long time, the lights gradually dimmed.
······
"Pitter patter"
It's going to rain tomorrow.
This is the result of predicting tomorrow's weather after waking up from a wish. It has been sunny these past few days, but I didn't expect the weather to change so suddenly. And it has only been a short time since the last rain, so I don't know how heavy it will rain this time.
He quickly got up, tidied himself up, took the lit oil lamp and pushed open the door.
At this time, the sky was a little dark and foggy.
I went to the bathroom counter and washed up simply. The cool water splashed on my face and I woke up instantly.
He washed the rice, lit a fire, and simply cooked a pot of porridge. Without waking up Xu Zhi and the others, he put the leftover dried fish from last night on the lid and steamed it.
I added some firewood, went out of the yard, fed Dahua a handful of cabbage, and added some clean water. These were all the vegetables that were wasted last night, and they were all packed in the backpack. I couldn't eat so much at home, and I couldn't keep it for so long, so I just gave it to Dahua to change her taste.
Afterwards, I went into the utility room and put some of the recently dried chilies and some fresh ones in a cloth bag, and would send some of them to Fumanlou later.
The porridge in the pot soon began to bubble, and the steam lifted the lid, almost knocking over the plate of dried fish on top. Xu Yuan quickly brought the dried fish to the stove, opened the lid, and scooped up some with a wooden spoon.
With the help of firewood, a pot of porridge was cooked quickly. Xuyuan drank a bowl of porridge by the light of the firewood in the kitchen.
Fill the water bag, pack up everything, and get ready to go. The wild boar from last night has been tied up and placed on the cart. This is what the villagers did last night, and they are all ready for the wish.
Fortunately, the temperature here is very low at night, otherwise, if it were daytime, the meat would have gone bad. I put the cloth bag containing the peppers into the backpack and carried it on my back.
Lead Dahua out, tie the leash, and lead him out of the yard.
······
After driving along the way, the ox cart finally saw Village Chief Gu and Gu Qinghan at the entrance of the village.
"Here we are. Let's go. Xuyuan, you sit in the back and I'll drive the car." Village Chief Gu told Xuyuan to sit in the back, stepped forward and took the reins from Xuyuan's hand, ready to drive the car.
Xu Yuan nodded, got off the cart, and walked to the back. The wild boar took up most of the cart, and there was still some space on both sides, so one person could barely sit on each side.
The journey was very smooth. When the sun came out, we had already left the forest and were on the main road, not far from the county town gate.
"Village Chief Gu, let's go to Fu Man Lou. I'm familiar with the owner there."
"Fumanlou? I heard it's a big restaurant. I didn't expect you to know the owner of a big restaurant. That saves me a lot of trouble. I was worried that you didn't know the price of wild boar and might be cheated." Village Chief Gu knew the reputation of Fumanlou. The dishes there were reasonably priced and novel. This time, the wild boar was also planned to be sold in Fumanlou. When he heard that Xu Yuan knew the owner, it was great. He could save himself the trouble of introducing him.
"Village Chief Gu, wait until we pass Fumanlou and continue walking forward. We'll go to the back door."
"Okay, so, Yuan girl, didn't all the sprouts sold in the village before all go to Fumanlou?" Village Chief Gu asked in disbelief.
Xu Yuan did not deny it. After all, sprouts were already common at this time, and it didn't hurt to say it. After all, the village chief's family was much richer than his.
"Great." Village chief Gu knew that the sprouts purchased by Xu Yuan were sold in the county town. He thought they were sold to small merchants, but he didn't expect that they were sold to such a big restaurant. He couldn't help but praise him.
Thinking about the fish pond that would be dug later, Village Chief Gu felt that he should still ask Xu Yuan to join in the partnership. After all, this girl was quite creative.
The ox cart soon stopped at the back door of Fumanlou. What a coincidence! The lady guarding the back door just opened the door and walked out. She was really shocked when she saw the huge object on the cart.
A girl jumped down from the side of the car. Her face looked a lot darker than before, but the old lady recognized her as Xu Yuan at a glance.
"aunt."
Xuyuan immediately greeted him.
"Oh, it's Miss Xu. Please come in and sit down. I'll go call the shopkeeper over." Aunt Niu was very happy. She nodded to Village Chief Gu and Gu Qinghan who were standing beside her as a greeting.
"No need, we can just wait here. Please ask Manager Hu to come over."
"Okay, I'll go right away." Seeing that Xu Yuan was unwilling to come in, Aunt Niu did not force him. She just opened the door a little wider, turned around and walked quickly to the front to call Manager Hu.
Shopkeeper Hu came very quickly, and his loud voice could be heard from a distance. "Hey, Miss Xu, why did you take so long to come? I've been waiting for you for a long time. Do you have anything new recently?"
"Hahaha"
Gradually I walked towards the wishing place and arrived at the back door.
I was surprised to see the large amount of goods on the cart.
"Oh, we caught a big one, good skills." He walked forward and carefully observed the wild boar, his eyes full of admiration. The game was delicious, and it was very rare for rich people.
"I am the shopkeeper of Fu Man Lou, my real name is Hu Zhanggui, I wonder what you two should call me."
Shopkeeper Hu looked at the two tall figures standing nearby, a middle-aged man and a young man. They looked somewhat similar and should be a father and son. The young man had a very good appearance.
"My name is Gu Qinghan, this is my father Gu Feng, hello, Shopkeeper Hu."
Shopkeeper Hu nodded and asked, "How are you going to sell this wild boar?"
"How much does Shopkeeper Hu plan to pay?"
"Well, how about 40 cents a pound?"
Gu Qinghan estimated the price of pork in the market and the approximate weight of wild boar meat. It was about the same price as he had in mind. His father nodded at him.
Xu Yuan remembered that the wild boar delivered last time was also of similar price, so he said nothing and stood aside silently.
"Fifty cents."
"Ah? That's a bit high. Let's make a deal, how about forty-five cents? If you hunt game in the future, bring it to us as soon as possible and we at Fu Man Lou will take it."
Gu Qinghan didn't expect that Shopkeeper Hu didn't get angry, and even tried to negotiate, "Deal."
"Great job, young man." He then called over a few men to bring the heavy tools and weigh them on the spot.
"Miss Xu, this is the money you received a while ago. Take it." After Hu dealt with the wild boar, he handed the money he had prepared to Xu Yuan. "Then should we give you the money for the chili ingredients this time, or wait until next time?"
He took the cloth bag of chili peppers that Xu Yuan handed over to him, spread it out and looked at it as if it were a treasure.
Xu Yuan thought about it and decided that it was more comfortable to have the money in his pocket, and he might not go out often recently, so he should prepare some of the cloth mentioned last time. However, he didn't expect that the wild boar would fetch more money than last time.
"Manager Hu, please pay for the materials first."
Shopkeeper Hu nodded and asked quietly, "Do you have any dried fish recently?"
Xu Yuan waved his hand and said, "It's not time yet. I will definitely send it to you when the time comes."
"I'm just waiting for your words."
