The whole family traveled through ancient times with their house

Goudan's voice was quite loud, attracting the attention of a middle-aged man at the city gate. The middle-aged man was wearing a stone-blue long gown that was about half new, and he was quite plump. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that he was the steward of a wealthy family or the owner of a restaurant.

Shopkeeper Liu was worrying about the dinner in the evening, secretly blaming Captain Wei for being unkind.

When distinguished guests came to our house, we didn't let anyone make reservations in advance, and only informed them this morning. Isn't this asking too much of them?

But as a small shopkeeper, he had no right to say no, so he could only agree to it.

But when he thought of the dinner in the evening, he felt upset and cursed Captain Wei as a villain.

This is Black Rock City, a place with scarce resources, and it happened to be the lean season. "Oh my God, this is going to kill me."

Shopkeeper Liu pondered for a long time in the restaurant, but could not come up with a good idea. With no other choice, he went to the South Gate to try his luck.

At this moment, he heard the boy not far away saying that he was selling fish, so he became interested and ran over to watch.

When Manager Liu saw the five fat fish in the bucket, his eyes lit up. He hadn't seen such delicious ingredients for a long time.

So he quickly asked, "Young man, how much is this fish?"

Goudan hadn't expected that they'd be inundated with customers the moment they arrived at the city gate. He glanced at Shopkeeper Liu's attire and, without flinching, opened his mouth, "This is a good thing. Uncle, you can give it as much as you like. But let me be frank: if you try to lower the price, we won't sell it to you."

Shopkeeper Liu dared not bargain, so he quickly held up four fingers and said in a flattering tone, "Young man, how about forty cents a piece?"

Goudan hadn't expected the shopkeeper to be so perceptive. He immediately revealed his two small fangs and shouted with a grin, "Deal."

"Then could you please, young man, take Uncle Yubang to the Good Luck Restaurant in the city?" Shopkeeper Liu said as he took out a purse from his sleeve, picked out two taels of silver from it and handed it to Goudan.

"Okay." Goudan agreed and reached out to take the silver. He weighed it like an experienced person before letting Aunt Jiang keep it.

Jiang Yan didn't expect that the five fish could be sold so easily.

Goudan looked at the man who was buying fish and wanted to say, "Uncle, get in the car." But when she saw Aunt Jiang, she swallowed the words back.

With Aunt Jiang around, he couldn't let the man outside the family ride in the same donkey cart with Aunt Jiang.

Obviously, Manager Liu had thought of this as well, and turned around and walked towards the city.

"Brother Erwa, I'm going to take the fish to this uncle first, and I'll come play with you later."

"okay."

Goudan informed Erwa and drove the donkey cart behind Manager Liu into the city gate.

Jiang Yan thought of the scene in the time-travel novel where money was charged to enter the city gate, so she asked Gou Dan curiously, "Isn't there money to enter the Black Stone City gate?"

"Black Rock City doesn't charge money."

"Oh."

Jiang Yan didn't expect that Black Stone City was quite humane, but after what Goudan said, Jiang Yan knew that she had misunderstood.

"Most of the people coming in and out here are stationed soldiers, or people from our military settlements. If they ask for money, the officers won't agree."

"..." Jiang Yan hadn't expected this to happen. But she was still happy when she thought that she and her daughter were also beneficiaries.

When the donkey cart entered the city gate, Jiang Yan's eyes fell on the bustling crowds and the stone houses.

The stone houses lining the street were different from what she had seen in novels before.

The square stone house has no carved beams or painted rafters, but is marked by the wind and sand of the border and the marks of time.

Yichen's big eyes blinked as she watched the passersby hurried by. She stretched out her little hand, pointed at the bustling street, and said softly, "There are still a lot of people in this city."

"Well, as long as the northern barbarians don't come to cause trouble, this place is pretty good." The hospitable shopkeeper automatically acted as an interpreter. "This is the main street, and our Good Luck Restaurant is on this street."

Shopkeeper Liu talked as he walked, introducing them to every shop they passed by.

When they passed by a blacksmith shop, Jiang Yan lowered her head and asked the shopkeeper Liu in a very low voice, "Shopkeeper, how much is this iron pot?"

"Sister-in-law wants to buy an iron pot?" Jiang Yan's voice was too soft, and Manager Liu was not sure what he heard.

"Well, there's no iron pot at home."

Seeing that Aunt Jiang's voice was too soft and difficult for him to hear, Goudan hurried to help her. "Aunt Jiang and her family just separated from the family, and they're not only short of iron pots, but also a lot of other things."

Yichen blinked her big eyes and uttered a few heartbreaking words: "We have nothing."

“…” Shopkeeper Liu was also separated from the family. His parents favored his eldest brother and youngest brother, and he, the dispensable son, was almost kicked out of the house.

Thinking of the difficulties at that time, he had to make up his mind to come here to make a living. Although it was dangerous here, the salary was higher than other places.

Fortunately, he had been lucky in the past few years and had made it from a small clerk to the shopkeeper without any danger. However, only he knew the bitterness of it.

“Is that good luck coming?”

The voice of the young boy during his voice change period was still very recognizable, and it also brought Manager Liu's thoughts back from drifting away.

"Yes, it's in front."

The donkey cart arrived at the back door of the restaurant, and Manager Liu personally unloaded the wooden barrel containing the fish from the cart. "Wait here, I'll be right back."

After Liu finished speaking, he carried the wooden barrel and went through the back door. After waiting for half a cup of tea, he appeared with the wooden barrel in his left hand and a small iron pot in his right hand.

When Manager Liu put the wooden barrel and the small iron pot on the donkey cart, several people noticed that there was a thick layer of dust on the small iron pot, as if it had not been used for a long time.

Shopkeeper Liu also spoke at the right time, "Sister-in-law, we don't need this small iron pot, so we'll sell it to you for fifty yuan. Do you like it?"

"Fifty coins?" Not to mention Goudan, even Jiang Yan, who didn't know the prices here, knew that they had gotten a great bargain.

“…” Happiness came so suddenly that Jiang Yan was a little unable to react for a moment.

Fortunately, Goudan was quick-witted and agreed immediately. "Thank you, uncle. Aunt Jiang will give you the money."

"Hey." Jiang Yan also reacted and handed the two taels of silver that she had been holding in her hand to Manager Liu.

Shopkeeper Liu smiled and gave her the change. He added, "If you have fish this good again in the future, please send them all to me at the same price."

"Yeah." Goudan agreed most readily. He was very willing to help Aunt Jiang run errands.

After saying goodbye to Shopkeeper Liu, Goudan drove his donkey cart and asked Jiang Yan, "Aunt Jiang, is there anywhere else you want to go?"

Jiang Yan thought for a while before saying, "Now that we have the pot, let's go buy some bedding." Although there were several quilts at home, they were not products of this era, and Jiang Yan didn't dare to take them out.
