Good luck every time

When Tian Twelve woke up, it was already dawn outside.

He sat up, yawning, and the room was filled with the aroma of fish porridge.

Li Ershi was not in the room. Li Shiwu was sitting aside cooking fish porridge. Li Ruyi frowned, and it was unknown what was bothering him.

Just before, she felt a hint of energy.

She couldn't control herself, her mood fluctuated, and the sense of energy disappeared immediately!

She tried again for the whole morning, but maybe because she was too utilitarian or too anxious, she never felt it again.

What's more, she now even has difficulty entering into a state of meditation!

Tian Twelve suddenly saw Li Ruyi, blinked, and suddenly felt that this boy looked surprisingly handsome today!

Li Ruyi noticed that he had woken up, asked him if he wanted to wash up, and handed him a willow branch.

Tian Twelve did not refuse. He took it and went out to wash up at the river.

After he left, Li Ruyi continued to worry.

The sun came out, but the weather seemed to be colder. After Tian Twelve came back, he put on his shoes and wrapped his leggings.

The four of them sat together and chatted for a while, but because Tian Twelve was really silent and Li Ruyi was absent-minded, the conversation was a bit dull.

It was not until early noon that the boss led his men down the mountain, and the embarrassment finally ended!

At this moment, business was more important than that ethereal feeling. Li Ruyi put it behind his mind and talked to the boss with a smile.

The boss felt a little embarrassed and made Li Ruyi wait here for one more day.

Li Ruyi didn't care. If it rained when she went out, she might not come.

If something happens on the way, all her money will be wasted!

That's real water stones, they will all melt away with the water.

She also told the boss about this.

"There's no need to be so polite, boss. We all have our own difficulties, so we should be considerate of each other."

"It's too dangerous for you to let Brother Twelve go down the mountain in the rain!"

The boss did not agree to anything Li Ruyi asked, but Tian Laoer beside him laughed and reached out to touch her head.

"You may be young, but you have a lot of ideas. Be careful not to grow taller!"

Li Ruyi: …

She slapped Tian Laoer's claw off her head.

Tian Laoer was not angry.

The boss also hit him with a stick.

"go away!"

Tian Laoer walked away with his neck shrunk!

Li Shiwu and Li Ershi helped people weigh the salt, while Li Ruyi and the boss watched from the side.

The boss was very satisfied when he saw the white salt falling into the pocket he brought with him.

After the weight was calculated, the money was paid.

The people in the village were walking in rows into the mountains, carrying salt on their backs.

The boss fell one step behind and stood with Li Ruyi.

"Actually, I came here this time because I have something else I want to discuss with you."

Li Ruyi looked up at the boss's face, while the boss frowned and looked at her neck.

"What's wrong with your neck?"

The child was too small and he couldn't see Li Ruyi's neck unless he looked up.

Li Ruyi indifferently pushed the matter onto Tian Twelve.

"Oh, about this! Twelve Brother also knows about it!"

"What does the boss want to discuss with me?"

Li Ruyi brought the topic back to where it was about to go off topic.

The boss frowned, and seeing that Li Ruyi didn't want to say anything, he didn't ask any more questions, but said.

"It's like this. The roads in the mountains are difficult to travel. I want to ask you if you can send me three months' worth of salt recently. You can do it all at once or in two or three batches. I want to send the salt back to the mountains before it snows or freezes."

“It’s too dangerous to go down the mountain in winter!”

Li Ruyi had been mentally prepared for this, and she was not surprised by the boss's request.

However, it is difficult for her to agree to this matter for the time being.

One was that she had already promised someone else, and the other was that she really didn't have that much salt in her hands.

Not only does she not adulterate the salt, she also screens the portion given to the boss.

It is not easy to buy coarse salt of this quality on the market.

Li Ruyi hesitated for a moment and felt that she should discuss this matter with Han Shian.

It just so happened that she also had to inform Han Shian about what Li Laoliu had told her.

It wouldn't be a big deal to add one more.

Anyway, no matter whether Han Shian can do it or not, her mentioning it won’t affect anything.

"I can't promise you for now. I have to go back and collect some money. If I can, I will send a batch as soon as possible and come to the mountain to find you then."

"If we can't get enough, we may have to wait until next month to deliver the salt to you!"

It might snow next month, and it will certainly be harder to travel in the mountains, but it will still be more convenient than when it’s frozen in deep winter.

At that time, Li Ruyi can discuss with the villagers he has made an appointment with and ask them to buy more salt this month to get through next month.

She could send the thousand kilograms of salt to the village first.

This also saves her from having to go to the mountains to sell salt this month.

The boss had no other choice.

Their village needed good salt. Although Li Ruyi's salt was a bit more expensive, he produced more fine salt than others and the quality was better.

Those salt dealers mix all kinds of things into the salt. Recently, someone came up with a wicked and insidious trick and mixed in saline soil from saline-alkali land. Even if it is boiled, the salt still has a strange sour taste.

Some people feel nauseous after eating.

Some wives in the village went home to visit their families and came back to talk about this matter with Mrs. Tian.

"Okay! How many days will it take you to come to a conclusion? The village is in need of some winter supplies, and we need to go to the county to sell some things. In a few days, everyone will go down the mountain. If you have any news, you can go to the county town to tell them, so you don't have to run back and forth."

Li Ruyi guessed that the village was going to sell dried meat.

Although she was very tempted, now was not the right time.

"Let me think about it. I can't go back today. I have to wait until tomorrow to go back. Hmm... I will get the result in about three or four days. However, I may not be able to raise salt by then. I will talk about the specific situation when the time comes."

The big boss also calculated the situation in the village.

"Then let's make an appointment on September 25th! I'll wait for you at the gate of the county town."

Li Ruyi nodded in agreement.

"Okay! If it doesn't rain, I can arrive around 9:00 p.m. If it rains, I'll be a little later."

The boss has no objection.

"In that case, see you on September 25th!"

He bowed to Li Ruyi, and Li Ruyi also bowed to him in farewell.

"See you on September 25th!"

Separate sides.

Li Ruyi returned to the cabin again.

All the biscuits and dried meat that Tian Twelve brought were kept. Li Ruyi gave a portion of the dried meat to Li Er and kept the rest for himself.

Li Shiwu didn’t have any, after all, temporary workers don’t have any benefits.

The three of them stayed in the wooden house for another night.

That night, Li Ruyi tried to meditate, but she just couldn't enter a state of concentration. After tossing and turning for half the night, she was too exhausted, so she fell asleep unwillingly after being persuaded by Li Shiwu.

The only thing that made her feel at ease was that she was hugging the money when she slept. The heavy bag gave her a full sense of security.

The next morning, after washing up, the three of them drove the donkey cart back home.

Without salt, the donkey only pulled the three of them, running for a while and resting for a while. It was faster than humans, but not much faster.

These days the donkey was chewing on straw and only ate a few carrots. It didn’t get any food at all. It was in a very bad mood and was not cooperating at all!
