After eating and drinking, they chatted a lot. Hearing that Chu Xiao was so young, Jiang Jiawen couldn't help touching his face. He was more than a generation older than him, so it was not an exaggeration to be called uncle.

But he managed to save some face from Yan Zhenshen, "I am eight years older than Brother Yan, so it is not wrong for you two to call me big brother."

Chu Xiao glanced at him and thought that his brother Shen was the eldest brother, and below him were his younger brothers and sisters, so why should they be the youngest.

But then he thought that he was an important customer and that money was all money, and calling him brother wouldn't cost him anything, so he just said "um" perfunctorily.

"You're quite reluctant." Jiang Jiawen was not angry and still smiled.

After eating, they were about to leave when Jiang Jiawen suddenly asked about the incident of them being chased today. Firstly, the deal had not been done yet, and he was also afraid that something might happen to the two of them, and then today's deal would be in vain.

Another reason is that he really likes this young couple. He met them twice last year and this year, and both times they were together. Although it seems that this young man is the one making the decisions, giving people the feeling that the young man is in charge of outside matters and the man is in charge of inside matters, in fact, when Young Man Chu makes a decision, he will subconsciously look at his husband.

And her husband would hardly object to his opinions, and would only speak up to remedy the situation when he didn't know how to respond.

In today's Great Xia, such an open-minded man is rare. At least Jiang Jiawen feels that he will not be so indulgent to his wife at home.

Of course, there are even fewer guys like Brother Chu who have their own opinions. He can only say that a pot fits a lid. As an outsider, I have to say that this is a match made in heaven.

They are also a couple that people envy.

If Jiang Jiawen hadn't asked this question, Chu Xiao would naturally find another money house with Yan Zhenshen, but since this person asked, he told him everything.

Jiang Jiawen was in the grain transport business, and the amounts of goods he purchased and shipped were usually not small. No matter which city he was in, he naturally had money houses he was familiar with.

As for the small money houses like the one Chu Xiao and his friends encountered, he had naturally heard of them. If they had any backers, they were not very capable and their main goal was to cheat as many people as possible. So if they failed to rob them once, they would not bother with them later.

"Then point me to a place."

"It's not far. I'll follow you."

Chu Xiao nodded: "That's fine, thank you for your hard work, Brother Jiang."

Jiang Jiawen was almost laughing because of him. He was afraid that this person would only call him "big brother" when he was needed.

As for Chu Xiao, he was not afraid at all that this man would cheat him. He knew how profitable the canal transport business was, and the other person was so rich that he would definitely not look down upon his ten gold nuggets.

The quality of the gold nugget struck by lightning was indeed not good. The owner of the money shop said that he had to melt it and make a new mold, so he could not exchange it for two cents. If it were someone else, they would at least deduct four cents. However, out of consideration for Boss Jiang, they only deducted three cents.

After leaving the money shop, Chu Xiao looked Jiang Jiawen up and down again, wondering how this man's face could be so valuable, that was a full ten taels of silver.

Jiang Jiawen felt a little confused by the look on her face, and quickly looked up at Yan Zhenshen's expression, fearing that this man would think that her husband was interested in her and hold a grudge against him. What if that happened? He would really die unjustly.

However, Yan Zhenshen had been with Chu Xiao for such a long time that he could guess most of his husband's thoughts. But to be honest, even if he knew what was going on, he still felt unhappy that his husband kept staring at other men.

"Back." Yan Zhenshen grabbed Fulang's wrist and wanted to drag him away.

"Brother Shen, are you jealous again?"

Chu Xiao raised his head and teased deliberately, his brother Shen was almost becoming jealous, he was unhappy watching other people's acrobatics, today he couldn't stand looking at Boss Jiang either, how could he be so cute?

"No, the money is too heavy, so I'd better go back early." Yan Zhenshen denied it, said goodbye to Jiang Jiawen, and told him the delivery time for tomorrow.

I had planned to send them back, but Xinhui didn’t mention it again.

The two turned to leave, and Chu Xiao did not forget to tease Yan Zhenshen deliberately: "You can even lift a wild boar, how heavy can this be? You are just jealous. Are you unhappy with anyone I look at?"

"Yeah." Yan Zhenshen did not deny it, "Just look at me."

"That won't do. I have to look at others and compare them with you. Only then can I know that my brother Shen is the most handsome, the best looking, and the most manly."

The voices gradually faded away, and Jiang Jiawen, who had originally thought the couple's flirting was quite interesting, suddenly froze his smile.

What does this mean? It means that he is not handsome enough, not good-looking enough, and not manly enough.

Jiang Jiawen laughed helplessly. Couldn't Brother Chu please stop praising one person and then criticizing a lot when coaxing his man? If nothing is said about pulling people down, what he said was pretty good. He could coax his wife in the same way when he goes back. He had learned something from it and it was worth it.

After selling the bears, wild boars and mountain products, Chu Xiao earned another 400 taels. There were quite a lot of things that could be bought with more than 1,000 taels, so the two of them started a shopping spree in the next few days.

Not to mention anything else, Chu Xiao spent more than one hundred taels of silver on various seafood from Jiang Jiawen. He then went to the grain store to buy some threshed rice and flour, as well as some coarse grains and black flour. Each visit to the grain store cost him another two hundred taels of silver.

There are many varieties of cloth in the capital city, but the price is cheaper than that in Anning Town. Chu Xiao bought some linen and cotton cloth for backup, and then there were many varieties of side dishes and seasonings. Chu Xiao would sell all of them, used and not used. At worst, he could go back and slowly study how to eat them later.

Chu Xiao originally wanted to buy some cotton, but when he asked about the price, he found out that it was even more expensive than their Anning Town. No one would do such a thing unless they were crazy and wanted to travel thousands of miles and spend such a high price.

They had bought everything that needed to be bought, and Chu Xiao's space was mostly filled up. After they checked the accounts, they found that there were still more than five hundred taels left.

And there were still some furs that had not been sold. The fox fur alone was worth about one hundred taels, plus badger and wolf furs.

Of course there is also the most valuable ginseng. Chu Xiao would stimulate it to grow when he had nothing to do on the road. However, half a month is already close to a hundred-year-old ginseng. But Chu Xiao has no plan to sell it. He is keeping it in the bottom of the box to save his life.

At the same time, he also plans to grow two more trees that are about seventy or eighty years old, so that he can harvest more seeds next year. In the future, he will have a lot of ginseng, one crop after another.

"We need to expand our yard, and I want to plant a lot of ginseng in the future." Chu Xiao hugged Yan Zhenshen's neck and smacked him: "It's still a little unsafe on the mountain."

"Growing it at home is more likely to cause trouble." Yan Zhenshen hugged the man, then leaned back and lay on the kang, letting his husband lie in his arms.

"There are only a few people and a few dogs in your family. If someone knew that you had ginseng planted in your yard, do you think you could protect it?"

"I can't protect it." Chu Xiao was not a fool, he just acted impulsively and thought that home was the safest place.

But if you think about it carefully, it is clear that wealth and fame attract people's attention. If he and Brother Shen don't have the ability to protect their families, they can only keep their wealth secret.

Unless one day they reach a status that ordinary people cannot reach, and become wealthy masters with servants and guards, others will not covet them.

Looking at the five hundred taels of silver in his hand, Chu Xiao sighed: "Let's just keep quiet and make a fortune. I don't want you to be a master at all."

"Why?" Yan Zhenshen asked with amusement.

Chu Xiao rolled over and lay on his side, propping up his head and looking at Yan Zhenshen: "Look, which official doesn't have three wives and four concubines? The temptation is too great, I'm afraid you will become bad."

Yan Zhenshen laughed, his chest shaking. "Even if you lend me your courage, I still wouldn't dare."
