Escape from famine: Daddy stands up, Dali girl lies down

When they reached a remote place, Lin Shu reached out and put the small gold ingot into the space.

The father and daughter followed the same method and went in and out of four money houses.

He then exchanged all the two thousand taels of gold notes and one thousand five hundred taels of silver notes on him into gold and silver ingots.

After exchanging the paper bills for real money, Lin Shu finally felt at ease.

Glancing at the two jars in the space, Lin Shu narrowed her eyes and smiled.

【Gold and silver, come to my bowl quickly! 】

...

"Shu'er, Daddy will buy you some nice cloth to make clothes." Lin Erzhuang said, looking at a silk shop.

With the money, he wanted to give his daughter the best cloth.

Lin Shu followed her father's gaze, shook her head and pointed to the cloth shop opposite.

"Go there to buy muslin and coarse cloth."

Although silk is nice, it is not her favorite.

Besides, even if I buy it, I won’t have the chance to wear it. Don’t forget that we are still fleeing from famine.

"Listen to Shu'er."

Lin Erzhuang glanced at the silk shop and secretly laughed at himself for not being as sensible as a child.

The father and daughter went into the cloth shop and bought two rolls of white cotton, two rolls of blue muslin, and four rolls of blue coarse cloth.

He also bought two bags of cloth strips at the price of ten cents each.

"Shopkeeper, please deliver it to Xilai Inn and have the innkeeper sign for it.

Just say that the goods were bought by the guests living in the courtyard." Lin Erzhuang paid the money and said.

"Okay, I'll definitely deliver it."

The shopkeeper picked up a pen and wrote it on the invoice, not finding it strange at all.

It seems that customers often ask for delivery, which opened Lin Shu's eyes.

Isn’t this the prototype of express delivery!

I didn’t expect that people in ancient times were quite smart.

At this time, Lin Erzhuang had no intention of giving a tip.

Seeing this, Lin Shu had no choice but to take out five copper coins from her small bag.

"Uncle shopkeeper, please have a cup of herbal tea."

The shopkeeper was stunned by the five copper coins that suddenly appeared in front of him.

The amount of silver that passed through his hands was at least eight thousand.

A skinny child actually offered him herbal tea.

Although, I could only drink a bowl of roadside herbal tea.

But he loved the feeling of being respected.

"Thank you, young master! I'll arrange the delivery right away." The shopkeeper smiled comfortably.

"No rush, just deliver it after noon."

Lin Shu put her hands behind her back and walked out with a figure-eight step.

"Hahaha, what a cute baby." The shopkeeper touched his chin and laughed heartily.

My depressed mood was also relieved by this scene.

The shopkeeper put the five copper coins away and continued to count and settle the bill.

...

"Shu'er, Dad has already given me silver money, why did you give me five copper coins again?" Lin Erzhuang said puzzledly.

He did not ask this question in front of the shopkeeper, as he always felt that his daughter had her reasons for doing so.

But he didn't understand why.

"Dad, when someone delivers goods to your door, should you give them a bowl of cold water to drink?"

"Dad, I understand what you mean."

After Lin Erzhuang said this, he immediately understood and couldn't help blushing for himself.

The father and daughter walked through the streets and went into any suitable store they came across.

shoe store.

Cloth shoes, cotton shoes, and shoe soles, two pairs of each size.

Because of the rush to travel, the cloth shoes and the soles were very worn out, so I bought two more pairs.

This means dozens of pairs of shoes. This kind of weather means big business for shoe stores.

"Sir, our store has a batch of leather boots from last year.

The quality is guaranteed and the price can be cheaper." The female shopkeeper suddenly had an idea.

She saw that this man even bought cotton shoes, so he should buy leather boots!

If they are kept in the warehouse, although they can continue to be sold in the winter, the accumulated funds will be considerable.

It’s been a horrible weather with no rain for over half a year. Who knows what will happen next?

"I'll take it if it's cheap, and I don't want it if it's expensive." Lin Shu lay beside the counter and said in a baby voice.

"Hahaha, young master also understands prices!

Don't worry, I will definitely give you the cheapest price."

The female shopkeeper was laughing so hard that she was shaking with laughter. She really wanted to reach out and pinch the young master's face.

But his father is here, so it’s better not to act rashly.

"Ban Bench, go and carry out the two sacks from the warehouse." The female shopkeeper said to the clerk beside her.

Lin Shu looked the bench up and down. Its long arms and legs did resemble a high bench used by farmers.

It’s a nice name. With a pair of long legs, he should be able to run very well!

While Lin Shu was daydreaming, her leather boots were already placed on the ground.

Each pair has obvious creases and dust, and the color is uniform black.

Most of them are thin styles suitable for spring and autumn wear, and there are less than ten pairs of furry leather boots.

The father and daughter looked at every pair of leather boots, and Lin Shu blinked slightly.

Lin Erzhuang's eyes flashed slightly. He picked up the leather boots that his daughter had carefully examined and put them aside, then negotiated the price with the female shopkeeper.

Lin Shu occasionally made a few ignorant remarks, and the leather boots were finally bought at a 50% discount.

Even though 50% off seems very cheap, a pair of thin leather boots still costs three or four taels of silver after the discount.

Furry leather boots were even more expensive, costing nearly ten taels of silver a pair.

The father and daughter picked and chose and spent another eighty taels of silver.

"Boss, please send it to Xilai Inn in the afternoon."

Lin Erzhuang took out five copper coins and placed them in front of the shopkeeper.

"Please give me a bowl of herbal tea."

Lin Erzhuang, a grown man, didn't dare to ask a female shopkeeper for some herbal tea.

Otherwise, others would sue him for molesting decent women.

The father and daughter went shopping along the way, with paper bags hanging all over their bodies, like a moving burden.

Lin Erzhuang finally bought an old backpack to carry the things and hung a few strings of paper bags around his neck.

...

At noon, the father and daughter drove a mule cart back to the inn.

In the backpack in the carriage, there were only two bags of snacks, five pounds of coarse salt, a bag of common medicine, five pounds of white flour, and twenty pounds of black flour.

The other candies, snacks, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, external injury medicines and common medicines were naturally put into the space by Lin Shu.

Lin Shu did not buy much food on this trip. The food in the space was about to be harvested, and the original stored food was enough for the family to eat for two years.

There is still space for continued planting, and food shortages are impossible.

She only planned to cultivate ten acres of land and plant two crops a year.

Rice, wheat, corn, soybeans, sweet potatoes, sorghum, peanuts, and millet.

They planted crops in between, providing enough food and drink for those fleeing famine.

Once things settle down, Lin Shu will no longer provide large subsidies to the family.

By then, there will be a variety of economic crops, such as ginseng, ganoderma lucidum, gastrodia elata, Panax notoginseng, dendrobium, etc.

Lin Shu believed that she could make a lot of money just by lying down.

...

"Er Zhuang, where did you buy this mule? Look how fat it is."

"This mule is very sleek and must have made a lot of money!"

"This carriage is not bad, and it has an iron frame. It must be expensive."

While sitting with her legs crossed and dreaming, Lin Shu was awakened by a scream.

He slid down the carriage yawning, walked to the side of the mule and stood there, not even as tall as the mule's legs.

The mule turned its head and blinked its big wet eyes at her.

"This is Dahei, our new cart driver.

The boss said that he ran very fast and had great strength, and many people were vying for him.

My father is really capable. He bought it for twenty-one taels of silver."

Lin Shu said with a look on her face, "My dad is stupid and rich," which made everyone laugh.

I saw Mrs. Wu covering her chest with her hands, her face turning pale.

Heartache!

These two prodigal sons bought so many things and even spent a high price to buy a mule.

The carriage looked expensive, so she decided not to ask.

Lest you get angry to death!

Mrs. Wu turned around and went into the house to sort out the delivered goods.

Seeing this, Lin Shu showed her gap-toothed face with pride.
