The wood mage and the native brother

Now that Ji Deng has made it clear that he wants to stay away from him, there is no need for Fei Nuo to pester him anymore.This idea gap does not affect daily communication.If you decide to leave at that time, it will just save you from being sad for nothing.

He is such an excellent mage, Ji Deng will be sad when he leaves.

Fino never doubted his own charisma.

So on the second day, Fei Nuo stopped yelling about his sore back and back pain, and took care of the two heavy buildings in the yard every day, helping Ji Deng with some housework, but he was no longer as free and relaxed as before, and recovered again. Same as Ji Deng's brother and sister who were gentle and elegant when they first met.

Polite but distant.

If it weren't for those dark green pupils and dark blue hair that are so different from those of Da'an people, he would have to be regarded as a nobleman from some big family.

Ji Deng saw Fei Nuo's sudden change in his eyes, and he quickly understood it, and tried his best to remain indifferent.Since they are not husband and wife, it is good to have a relationship that is neither far nor close as before on the mountain.

Ji Deng told himself so.

It's just that my heart is sour.

So the two of them stayed close to each other, went to the vegetable stalls together as usual, and slowly grinded the mortar together.Just ask a question every day what do you want to eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and then say a few more clothes when the weather is cold, and there is no more content.

The two felt very good about each other, but Ji Xiaomei felt that something was wrong. She watched the two carefully for several days, and finally couldn't help but stretched out her short hands at the dinner table and tried to lean forward for Fei Nuo and Ji Deng. Picking up her favorite fried mushrooms with chopsticks, she opened her big eyes and said earnestly,

"Don't be angry, if you can't talk about something, you will fight and ignore others, and make up after eating fried mushrooms, okay?"

Ji Deng was startled, then smiled uncomfortably,

"No, we didn't quarrel."

"Really?"

Ji Xiaomei is skeptical.

"real."

Ji Deng made a vow, took two chopsticks to fry mushrooms and put them in Ji Xiaomei's bowl,

"Eat it quickly."

Ji Xiaomei looked at Fei Nuo again.

Fino smiled slightly, pinched the tip of Ji Xiaomei's nose,

"It's true, eat it quickly."

Ji Xiaomei believed it, and happily ate with her small bowl.

Fei Nuo looked at Ji Xiaomei, who was eating deliciously, and Ji Deng, who couldn't stop serving her food, and some unknown emotions rose in his dark green pupils.

……

Ji Deng bought three catties of corn, and finally got fifteen boxes of butterfly powder.There were not many of them, so they were sandwiched in hair-removing oil powder and sent to incense shops, where they were sold at a price of [-] Wen per box.

At first, Mr. Xu thought it was expensive, but he was afraid that it would not be sold in the shop, so he persuaded Ji Deng to reduce the price.But Ji Deng just shook his head and insisted,

"This butterfly powder has always been sold higher, not lower, and cannot be reduced."

He went to inquire, and the Yunxiang Building on the other street even dared to call the price of dozens of taels a box.Although Ji Deng can't even be regarded as a master of Hexiang, Ji Deng is not guilty of calling this price. I don't see how many merchants want to sell this butterfly powder but have no fragrance.

If it wasn't for the low-grade corn he bought, and the cheapest clove powder mixed in, even if it was only for the miraculous effect of butterfly powder on skin and skin, it would be worth a tael of silver.

Since Ji Deng insisted so much, although Mr. Xu was still a little worried, he finally followed him.After all, I have heard that other big shops sell more expensive ones.

However, Ji Deng was full of anticipation for these fifteen boxes of butterfly powder, but they did not sell as well as Ji Deng expected, and the ashes fell in the shop for a month.

"Otherwise, let's reduce the price."

Mr. Xu looked at Ji Deng's face full of disappointment, and sighed to persuade him.Not being able to sell is not necessarily a bad fragrance powder, after all, people in the fragrance industry know that Yingdie powder is a top-grade fragrance powder for body and skin rejuvenation.

Mr. Xu sighed secretly, probably because their shop dragged down the powder.

Because the customers who come to the shop on weekdays are mainly girls and boys from the surrounding area, who have enough food and clothing but not rich enough, the incense powder in the shop is rarely expensive, and the latter is only aimed at the occasional whim. Thinking about getting lucky and making a fortune.

It is difficult to sell Yingdiefen for a long time.

Ji Deng bowed his head and stood in front of the cabinet. On it were fifteen boxes of butterflies he had sent together with the hair-removing oil powder a month ago, and one box was not missing.

Sure enough, it's because of the price.

Ji Deng thought.

When setting the price, although he insisted on it to Mr. Xu, he had no idea in his heart, but he finally set the price because of Qi's admiration for Yingdie Fan.

The Qi family also wanted to make it and sell it. Although it failed due to various reasons, it has always been thinking about it.I also told Ji Deng that if it would be convenient to live separately someday, I would definitely sell him a box of five taels of silver.

In this way, how did Ji Deng sell Yingdie Fan, which Dad was so optimistic about, at such a low price.

But one month passed, but not a single box was sold.In this way, he can't even earn back his capital, so the more than 100 papers he invested in when he broke the boat at the beginning are going to be in vain.

Even if Ji Deng still holds a glimmer of hope that it will suddenly become a big hit, he clearly knows that he is deceiving himself and others, and his heart is fried.

The hair removal powder is selling well, but the profit is not big, and what I earn is less than the clothes that Fei Nuo sold to their brothers and sisters.

But Ji Deng couldn't help biting his lip as the highly profitable Yingdie Powder was not sold in a single box.

He must be too impatient.

Too eager to make money to pay for the money that Fei Nuo spent on them.I was too impatient, so I was in a hurry. I should make some cheap and easy-to-use face powders, or face powders that would be effective in a short time. I would make Yingdie powder after all the girls and brothers on the street knew about his face powder.

What should we do now.

Would it be better to take it to a big shop?

No, no.

As soon as this idea came to the fore, it was extinguished by Ji Deng.First of all, Mr. Xu is kind to him, and he can't do this kind of thing just because of money.Secondly, the big shop has its own master, and will not accept his incense powder...

Ji Deng was taken aback, really money is more important in his heart.

He is so mean.

Ji Deng had a small white face, his emotions were complicated and indistinguishable, and his mind was like a mess of paste.

When Mr. Xu saw that Ji Deng's lips were biting, his blood turned pale, so he knew that the child was desperate.Just about to explain a few words, the guy who saw off the guests also came over and said,

"This box is quite beautiful. Many customers like it when they see it. They want to buy it when they hear that it can improve their body and rejuvenate their skin. But they put it down when they heard the price. Fifty cents is really expensive, the most expensive incense in our shop. Fen is only [-] Wen, and [-] Wen is enough for a family to survive for four or five days, and those who have their own food in the countryside can live for a month."

The buddy was spitting all over the place, at least when he finished speaking, he saw Ji Deng's pale complexion, and quickly turned the words in his throat,

"However, seeing the reluctance of those customers, I might just grit my teeth and stamp my feet one day and buy it."

Mr. Xu didn't want this guy to talk too fast, talking nonsense about what he should say and what not to say, so he immediately glared at the guy.

The buddy knew where he probably said something wrong again, so he scratched the back of his head embarrassingly and walked away.

Ji Deng's face was already stiff, but he still smiled wryly when he heard the words.

Although the people near the shop are better off than the peasants in Xiaohe Village, they are not willing to spend fifty cash for a box of incense powder that will not be used a few times.

Even if there were, there would not be many people.I don't know how long it will take for these fifteen boxes to be sold out.

Flavor powder is like food, it will go bad if left for too long.Especially the Butterfly Powder is food at all, if it hadn't been exposed to the sun for four or five days without being contaminated with moisture at night, it might be ruined by itself before it can be sold.

Fingertips unconsciously clasped the butterfly wings on the surface of the wooden box, Ji Deng shuddered.

Mr. Xu stroked his beard and comforted,

"Don't worry, real gold is not afraid of fire, there will always be people who know the goods to buy it. The hair oil powder sells very well, and you can make a lot of money in a month. You are still young, and you are still a brother, but you have already He earns more than the men who work hard on the street, and he has done a good job, and in time, he will be as good as your father."

Ji Deng couldn't remember what happened next, so he went back to the third room in Dahuai Hutong in a daze, locked himself in the room, fell on the bed covered with a quilt, wanted to cry, but there were no tears.

He misses his father and father.

Ji Deng suddenly lost the previous vigorous motivation, so he had to remind himself that he and his younger sister still had to live, and they couldn't always rely on Fei Nuo for support.In the future, if Fei Nuo has a girl and brother he likes, they can't just stay here and cause trouble.At that time, I still need to find a place to stay, and I have to save money for the house.

But just relying on hair oil powder, I'm afraid it will be the year of the monkey.

Ji Deng pulled the quilt again and curled himself up tighter.

Autumn is starting to get cooler.

……

When Fei Nuo came out of the house after a night of sleep, the sun was already high.

There have been a few continuous rains in the past two days, and I can feel the temperature dropping in autumn.A strong man might still be able to wear a thin shirt, but Fei Nuo, who has lost his vitality, has already put on a cape. Considering that the Ji Deng brothers and sisters are still young, they didn't bring any clothes when they came from Ji's house. , summer clothes can not be worn now.

The summer quilts are a little thin now, and it's time to replace them with thicker ones.Shoes and hats should also be added.Thinking about it this way, there are quite a few things to buy.

Fino squinted his dark green eyes to look at the sky, it was not time for lunch yet.

Ji Xiaomei ate the breakfast made by Ji Deng early in the morning and ran to play with her friends. They were all children of the same age in Dahuai Hutong, and they had a common language.Because of the rabbit and villain that Fei Nuo personally engraved for her, the little friends quickly accepted Ji Xiaomei, and even played together soon.Usually they won't come back until lunch time.

Fortunately, Ji Xiaomei didn't make a big change this autumn, and the previous size was recorded in the clothing store she frequented, so Fei Nuo let her play, and knocked on the door of Ji Deng's room,

"Let's go get some autumn clothes and bedding. I don't know how to look at it. I still have to rely on your palm."

There was a moment of silence in the room, and there was a muffled "OK", followed by rustling sounds.

Fino raised his eyebrows, this sounds weak.

Soon, the season lights came out, looking a little depressed.

The dark green eyeballs rolled, Fino smiled and said,

"It's cold, add more clothes and go."

Ji Deng nodded, also put on a cloak and tied it around his neck, and the two went out together.

Clothes with Fino's vision are very easy to choose, as long as you choose a suitable price for the season lights, and then look at some Fino and don't buy too much.Fortunately, although the two are separated, their mutual trust is still there. Fei Nuo still puts all his wealth in Ji Deng's hands and refuses to take it back.He only brought a little silver with him when he went out, and Fei Nuo couldn't afford to buy more even if he wanted to.

Ji Deng thought about it, and when he went out, he only counted half of the money, and took another [-] Wen from his purse.Fei Nuo's clothes and bedding are naturally expensive, but their brother and sister's can be more frugal.

However, these Phinos did not know all of them.
