Xiao Tong did not understand, "Then why? You must know that those pickled vegetables have already been sent to the capital. You just have to wait for the good news! "Mu Rousang could no longer remain calm, "Really? This means that your master is optimistic about this dish. I"ve said it before, even those sesame sugar s, ripe melon seeds and the like have people selling them. How could this dish not be welcomed? "
Xiao Tong bit the corner of his mouth as he quietly lowered his head to eat the noodles. He did not know who said that the Chinese pumpkin seed was easy to learn from others, or who said that someone was drinking cold water at that time, "wood girl need not be sad.
Mu Rousang shook her little head, "Sigh, didn"t I only think of it when I was cooking noodles just now? If there"s that pickled vegetables, I can make you a delicious pickled noodles!"
Her small eyes stared at the noodles, looking at Xiao Tong out of the corner of her eyes. Little brat, are you afraid that your lord won"t take the bait?
"pickled noodles?" Could there be a lot more ways to eat it?
"Of course. It can be used to cook noodles and also a hotpot. You haven"t eaten it before right? The hotpot with pickled vegetables is sour, sweet, fragrant, and spicy. Zizi ~ ~ ~" That smell is so beautiful! "
When Xiao Tong heard this, he felt jealous. He had to go back and tell his grandpa right away! He didn"t notice that the speed at which he was eating the noodles had increased significantly.
Mu Rousang raised her eyebrows and stealthily changed the topic, "Big Brother Xiao Tong, how long would it take to get from the capital to Ping An County?"
Xiao Tong accepted that Mu Rousang was even more casual with his speech, "If it"s normally only ten days, then it"s enough. If it"s snowing, then it"s going to take half a month!"
"That long?" Mu Rousang still wanted to wait for Mu Jinzhi"s break and rush her clan"s little donkey cart to the capital to roam around! After so long, wouldn"t that small cart break down on the road?
"Yes, but this time, my young master"s item is on the official road. I think we will reach the capital in two days." It was a pity that his young master had to sacrifice his "looks" in exchange for this matter. Xiao Tong silently shed two streams of tears for his young master"s innocence, then, she continued to struggle against the noodles.
Mu Rousang judged from his words, the first was that this Yang Zixuan was after the Shangguan Family. Secondly, this Shangguan Family seemed to have some power. Third, this Yang Zixuan urgently needed money.
Hence, the little person in Mu Rousang"s heart was overjoyed. There was demand, and there was a market.
Hearing Mu Rousang"s words, Xiao Tong very automatically jumped into the huge pit that Mu Rousang had dug, and quickly finished the noodles. He wanted to fly to the side of the young master and tell him about this new thing.
I am truly grateful to Mu Rousang for her generosity, I did not expect to be able to get a good idea from wood girl, I thank wood girl on behalf of my young master.
Mu Rousang waved her hands nonchalantly, "Big brother Xiao Tong is too foreign to me. It"s all thanks to your young master"s good fortune that Little Mountain Village was able to earn this tiring silver." She had only used this name to redeem her family"s reputation as a white-walled, blue-tiled, brick house.
Xiao Tong knew that he did not want to stay any longer, seeing that the jar on the carriage had already been moved, he bid his farewells to Mu Rousang, "wood girl, I wonder when I can transport these ten thousand catties away."
Originally, he felt that it was a little cold to eat it. But today, hearing Mu Rousang"s words about a fresh method of eating it, he couldn"t help but exclaim in his heart and was in a hurry to go back and try it.
The Qin Er"s family was bustling with activity, looking at the cabbages, Mu Rousang wanted to confirm something, "Are you going to transport them to the capital?"
Xiao Tong nodded, there was nothing that he couldn"t say.
Mu Rousang extended three pink pinky fingers, "If your young master was to transport him to the capital, three days would be enough!"
Seeing that Xiao Tong was not sure, she laughed and said: "Of course, if the pickled vegetables are fully cooked, it would take ten days to half a month. But if you are going to the capital city, you will have to spend a lot of time on the road.
Xiao Tong followed Yang Zixuan to travel to the north, and this knowledge was naturally incomparable to what he had seen in the past. He immediately understood that as long as he finished handling these dishes, he would be able to transport them away.
He was in a hurry to return home to report to his young master, so without wasting any time, he bid farewell to Mu Rousang, then called the carriage driver to get on the road.
Mu Rousang smiled, raised her eyebrows, and watched Xiao Tong leave with his little claws. He did not even have time to speak about the huge vats of silver, as he charged back into the town with the two ox-carts.
With her small hands behind her back, she strolled around the courtyard with a smug look on her face, touching the pile of cabbages left and right.
At the side, Qin Er saw that she rarely revealed her little girl"s att.i.tude and teased her, "Rou Sang, why does Second Aunt look like my Peach Blossom!"
Mu Rousang ran over with her short legs, "Second Aunt, what are you saying! The eyes of the Peach Blossom only have sesame sugar s! "
Aunt Zhu laughed as he peeled the cabbage, "Sang girl, your Second Aunt is just teasing you, right? In your eyes, there are only sesame sugar s, and now, I see only copper coins jumping around in your eyes."
Mu Rousang, ah, she is being watched as a monkey trick.
Her happy days always went by quickly, and when Mu Rousang gave the goods to the people Yang Zixuan sent to pull away, the dizzy her rarely ever took a breath. If it wasn"t necessary, she really didn"t want to use this as a pretense to earn some money.
That night, the two siblings did their favorite thing — sitting on the hot brick bed and counting the money.
Mu Jinzhi"s face was full of excitement, "Little sister, this, this, this is the money you get from selling pickles?!" It was so much more than what he had harvested when farming.
Mu Rousang thought about giving him a precautionary measure, "Brother, since ancient times, we have always called it the rural industry and commerce, the last place in the business cla.s.s, the truth is that it is not so. Look, the status of a farmer is the second place in the business cla.s.s, brother, look at what kind of life the neighbors in the village lead, and then look at what life the merchants lead."
Mu Jinzhi wanted to say something, but Mu Rousang ignored him and continued: "Although we are all merchants, but look at Yang Zixuan, although he is from a wealthy family, it is not easy for him to earn even a little bit of money. On this cold day, he has to personally transport the 10 thousand jin worth of goods to the capital, and on this road, not only do the people have to pay high wages, it is also not easy to travel on this road.
Mu Jinzhi fell into deep thought, then raised his head to speak. However, the impatience and disdain in his words had already disappeared, "What little sister said is true, previously the teacher had always said that the business people were mercenary villains, but now it seems that they are just changing their way of life."
Mu Rousang heaved a sigh of relief. She had purposely explained it to Mu Jinzhi today because she had heard Mu Jinzhi say recently that he looked down on merchants. How could she? Mu Rousang had always kept this in her heart, but now that she thought about it, it must have been taught to him by that foolish fool, Teacher Liu.
Mu Rousang laughed coldly: "Merchants have a great deal of profits, this is true, brother, look, although we are earning a lot of money from selling the pickled vegetables, if not for Yang Zixuan"s business, where could our family have sold the pickled vegetables and even bought twenty silver taels, not to mention the benefits to the villagers, from the Village Head Grandpa, we will not need to worry about the taxes for the next year, the little mountain village is very grateful to Yang Zixuan, he could let us live in peace."
If what Mu Rousang had said before was only to stop Mu Jinzhi from looking down on the merchants, then the words that came after would be made for him to see.
Look at what we are wearing, which one of them isn"t delivered to the town by merchants, and which of these things aren"t created by humans? Forget about other people, let"s just talk about the embroidery work I do normally, I didn"t even use it to sell to the Embroidery for silver, that boss woman took my clothes and sold them to others, she did it for a profit, but without her, how much work would there be of embroidery in the entire town?
"Little sister"s words made Big Brother sweat. In the future, Big Brother will definitely reflect on what others have said," Mu Jinzhi said after thinking it through thoroughly.
Fortunately, her precious big brother hadn"t grown crooked yet, so she corrected him in time.
"Big brother thinks that he can"t do it himself." She did not wish for Mu Jinzhi to become someone who did not know how to think. If he could not even think about it, it would be better for him to stay at home to be a rich man.
Mu Jinzhi forehead broke out in cold sweat, "Thank you little sister for your reminder.
Mu Rousang carried the silver and placed it on the kang, then started to calculate, "Brother, these pickled vegetables, Yang Zixuan, have been buying them for six coins per catty, but I"ve given my family members one catty for each catty, which is twice the market price, we still have some money in our family, not to mention this small amount of money, the salt is also extremely expensive, and with Aunt Zhu"s family and Qin Er"s family"s work money, the total cost is also four coins, so my family"s pickled vegetables, which is only worth two catties per catty, are actually cheap."
Mu Jinzhi lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said: "Although the profit looks small, it"s only because of the large amount, that"s why I can earn twenty silver."
Mu Rousang nodded her head, she had no doubt that after Yang Zixuan delivered all these things to the capital, the price of the pickled vegetables would increase by several fold.
The two siblings were busy making money, but the Mu Yun family, which the two of them had left behind, had returned to the village in the evening, moreover, they had been brought back in carriages with a lot of face. The thing the villagers were most willing to do, was to watch the drama and gossip, and the evening of the same day, the village knew that Mu Yun"s family had gone to a rich family to be guests.
The return of Mu Yun"s family caused quite a commotion in the village. Not only did the family speak of it, but they also said that they were used to the master"s ways and went in and out of Mu Yun"s courtyard with a servant girl waiting for them. Looking at his dilapidated courtyard, flames of anger ignited in his heart, "You d.a.m.ned woman, what are you doing messing with the SAO women? If you eat your fill, you"re going to be so full, aren"t you? "
It turned out that after Mulberry had beaten Aunt Li up, he had always been proud and meritorious. He had treated the Zhou family as his own family and had instructed the servants to not be lazy.
Mu Qingxi was happy to have this opportunity to kick out some of the old men left behind by the Zhou Family"s first wife out of the manor. No matter how bad they were, they would still be forced to guard the manor from afar.
Aunt Li was enlightened after she had suffered this loss. When she found out that the old master was at home, she changed her mind and gave the money to the old woman who was guarding the door. She said that it was due to the cold weather and wanted to drink some hot soup to tell her that she was going to the kitchen.
The Mulberry was coincidentally supervising him in the kitchen, and when she heard that, she became angry, "Pah! Dog meat cannot be used as a chopping block, only her BIAO, her brother-in-law, sees her as a bit of a beauty, and thinks of himself as the innocent daughter of a proper family."
Who was this Mulberry? He was known as the one with a bad mouth in the village, his curses were like sh * t.
In fact, in the Zhou Mansion, she felt that because she was her first uncle"s wife, she was able to restrain herself from imitating others.
How could her obscenities enter the ears of the servant girls? They all secretly despised the Mulberry and turned their backs to say that she was a country b.u.mpkin.
I also have some relatives in the crowd who do not place Mulberry in their eyes. "Madam Mu, no matter if it"s a concubine or not, in the end, master Aunt Li was brought back from the family. She is doting on us, and we only listen to her orders, so please do not make things difficult for us, Madam Mu."
It was fine that he didn"t say it, but the moment he mentioned Mulberry, he felt that it wasn"t because he didn"t want to anger the fox spirit with scolding his underlings! She intended to curry favor with Mu Qingxi so that her own daughter could marry into the Shangguan Family. At that time, she wouldn"t have to worry about clothes and food.
