Spring scenery in the fields

The market was very lively. Because it was a market day, there were a lot of people and the streets were crowded.

Shen Rongshan protected her in the street: "Go to the meat market, wait until the pheasants are sold, go buy seeds, and then I will accompany you to the shop to have a look."

Ji Wenhe nodded and followed him closely: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

The meat market specializes in selling meat and is across the street from the vegetable market.

The meat market not only sells meat, but also fish and shrimp.

Shen Rongshan found a corner of a shop and pointed to the steps behind him: "Sit there and take a rest."

"Yeah." She couldn't walk anymore and wanted desperately to sit down and rest.

He blew away the dust on the steps, sat down, and sighed with contentment.

Ji Wenhe looked at the street. There were people selling meat at the beginning of the street and fish at the end of the street.

There is no need to shout at the stalls, as people often come up to ask for prices.

Next to her was a very small alley, just wide enough for two people to walk through. Opposite her was the main street, and further across was the vegetable market.

Ji Wenhe stood up and patted his shoulder: "Brother Shen, I'll go to the alley to take a look. I won't go far. I'll be back soon."

Shen Rongshan looked into the alley and nodded: "Well, go quickly and come back soon."

"it is good."

The alley is not deep, about three meters.

After leaving the alley, Ji Wenhe looked at the shops on both sides of the street, spices, rouge, clothing stores, bamboo weaving shops...

When she turned around and went back, she thought as she walked, she was an ordinary worker in her previous life. As for her special skills, does being able to eat count?

After get off work and on weekends, she likes to cook delicious food online, but she doesn’t have any exclusive recipes. An experienced chef can tell how the food is made just by tasting it, and may be able to replicate it and make it even better than hers.

I am not good at selling food. Although I have cooked many delicious dishes, I can’t remember the specific ingredients and I can’t remember how much to put in.

As I said, without an exclusive secret recipe, no one would even look at her.

After much thought, I couldn't think of a business that is reliable, has no cost, and can make money easily.

Shen Rongshan sold the pheasants and put the basket on his back. He turned the corner and saw a woman in the alley holding her head in distress. He walked up to her and squatted in front of her: "What's wrong?"

His voice was soft, not as cold as before.

Ji Wenhe raised his head and said with a frown: "I find it difficult to make money."

“It’s not easy to make money. If it were that easy to make money, there would be no poor people in the world.”

That's what she said, but she was a person from the modern world, and when she came to the ancient times, she couldn't find a job to make money. She was not even as good as a little girl. At least other people could embroider purses to make money, but she couldn't do anything.

Shen Rongshan took out ten coins and gave them to her: "Go buy some buns later. A meat bun is three cents, and a vegetable bun is one cent."

Looking at the ten copper coins in his hand, he asked, "How much did the two pheasants sell for?"

"Forty cents."

“Is it selling well or poorly?”

Shen Rongshan stood up and said, "In the past, one could only sell for 25 to 30 wen. Let's go buy some vegetable seeds."

Ji Wenhe nodded and looked at the copper coin in his hand, feeling reluctant to use it.

A meat bun costs three cents and is only the size of the palm of your hand. It’s gone in one bite. It’s better to buy vegetarian buns. Although they have less filling, the vegetarian ones are more cost-effective.

Walking down the street, she saw a shop in front of her with people coming in and out. In their baskets should be purses and tied cords, delivering goods.

"Brother Shen." Ji Wenhe pointed to the shop in front, "Let's go to that shop and take a look later."

Looking in the direction of her finger, he saw Jinxiufang. When his mother was alive, she often took work home to do.

"it is good."

When we arrived at the seed shop, there were quite a few people inside.

"Brother Shen, go in and buy some seeds. I'll wait for you outside."

Shen Rongshan was worried and warned, "Don't run around at the door. I'll be out soon."

Ji Wenhe nodded, then looked at the stall next to him, which was selling various small items, and walked over curiously.

"Girl, feel free to look around. You can try on any hairpins you like."

The boss introduced it enthusiastically.

There are velvet flowers, wooden hairpins, headbands of various colors, fans, handkerchiefs, children's toys and so on.

"Boss, how much is this wooden hairpin?"

"Three pennies."

Ji Wenhe frowned. She was thinking about whether it was expensive or cheap, but her boss misunderstood her meaning.

"Miss, three cents is not expensive. It's a fair price. I didn't raise the price too much. You can go to other stalls to have a look. I'm the only one that sells it at a very low price."

"How much does this cost?"

She picked up a coarse cloth headband with a bow on it. It was red all over and about fifteen centimeters long on both sides. There were also shorter ones.

"How do I carry this?"

"This is more expensive, six cents each."

The boss told her how to wear it.

The bow is in front and the ribbon is tied around the back, which looks very much like a headband in the previous life, a decoration, and can also be used to tie hair.

Ji Wenhe looked at the various items and suddenly an idea of ​​how to make money came to his mind.

After Shen Rongshan came out, she couldn't wait to ask, "Brother Shen, has there been a peddler in our village?"

"I saw him several times when I was a child, but I don't know now. I'll ask Wenshan and the others when I get back."

A peddler goes from street to street. If he doesn’t sell well in a village, he will basically not go to that village again next time.

Seeing her lowering her head in deep thought, he asked curiously, "What's wrong? Why are you asking this?"

Ji Wenhe smiled and shook his head: "Nothing, I just asked, let's go, let's go to the shop and take a look."

I haven’t decided yet. You can ask about where to buy the goods. The key is to come up with the capital.

There were all kinds of things on the stall just now, and I guess it cost a lot of money.

He doesn't have much money now, so he may not agree.

When he arrived at the shop, Ji Wenhe looked around and saw handkerchiefs, purses, silk bags, and an exquisite little screen.

The boss was a woman in her thirties, who was calculating with an abacus. When she saw someone coming in, she came out from behind the counter and said enthusiastically, "Girl, do you want to buy something, or do you want to get some work?"

"Boss, what kind of work can I get?"

"It depends on what you can do. We have embroidery, handkerchiefs, purses, and screens. But you have to see the craftsmanship first before deciding which one to take."

She doesn’t know how to embroider: “Anything else?”

The boss looked at her quietly, and when he saw her hands, he knew that she couldn't embroider.

People who embroider all year round will develop calluses on their fingertips and fingertips, but she doesn't.

"Do you know how to knit, young lady?"

Ji Wenhe thought for a moment and answered honestly, "I did when I was a child, but I have forgotten a little bit now."

She was afraid that her boss would ask her to type one on the spot and she wouldn't be able to do it, which would be an awkward situation.

The boss said with a smile: "It's okay, you can learn from me, or if there are people in your village who know how to do it, you can go and ask them."

Shen Rongshan remembered that Aunt Lan knew how to knit, so he said from behind her, "Aunt Lan knows how to knit."

That’s great, I’ll go back and ask Aunt Lan.

Ji Wenhe leaned on the counter and watched her take out the silk corduroy from below: "Boss, how much is the price?"
