My parents are omnipotent

Chapter 54 Mr. Free (plus more)
This shop is the only one in Yuyang County that is open for business. It has no intention of guarding against refugees and rebellious soldiers. It is obvious that there are masters in the shop.

Of course, Ye Anlan likes to come here to buy things, and the pictures are more because they have a complete range of goods here.

Not to mention grain, salt, sugar, meat, eggs, medicinal materials, cloth, utensils and other small things, this shop even sells weapons, wooden carts, donkeys, mules, horses and cattle.

When Ye Anlan tentatively suggested that she wanted to buy a mule cart, the fat shopkeeper immediately took her to the house that was just across the street from the grocery store.

The area of ​​the house is very large. In addition to the mountain of goods, there are also a lot of young and middle-aged men with thick muscles and weapons hanging from their waists. Some of these people are helping to move the goods, and some form a small team to patrol back and forth in the house. .

Ye Anlan was bold, and took Yang Xiaotao, Zheng Fengshou, and Da Lala to follow behind the fat shopkeeper, and went to the barn behind the house.

There were a total of twenty large animals raised in the barn, among which there were only two horses, only three cows, and donkeys and mules accounted for the vast majority.

Fat shopkeeper adhered to his family's consistent tradition of "although it is expensive, but does not deceive customers", and set a price for each of the twenty large animals according to the type, appearance, and teeth of the animals.

He showed the price list to Ye Anlan. Ye Anlan's sharp eyes saw two horses and a mule crossed out on the price list at a glance.

She thought to herself: "It seems that the fat shopkeeper's business is quite prosperous."

Eyes wandered over the price list, Ye Anlan pointed to a young mule with a mid-range price, "Just this one, and give me a stronger wooden cart."

The fat shopkeeper narrowed his small eyes, "Okay, just wait a moment."

After that, he beckoned to his little follower, "Take the mule and ask Lao Li to equip this distinguished guest with the strongest wooden cart we have here."

The young guy with a small tail agreed and went to work, while the fat shopkeeper smiled and invited Ye Anlan to the front of the house.

The two talked while walking, and in just half a cup of tea time, the fat shopkeeper with a flexible mind made several more deals.

He sold half a cart of grain, a large pot of coarse salt, two small altars of spirits, two long knives, two sets of bows and arrows, a few bolts of white muslin, a few bottles of emergency pills, some tableware and cooking utensils to Ye Anlan, plus The previous mule cart bought more than half of the two hundred taels of silver notes that Ye Anlan got from Liu Zhihong and took them to his shop.

Almost as soon as they returned to before liberation, Ye Anlan, who had expected it, and Zheng Fengshou, who had no heart, didn't react much, but Yang Xiaotao gasped in distress.

expensive!It's so expensive!Everything was so expensive that it made her heart bleed.

***
Leading the newly purchased mule, the three of them returned to the alley where they were temporarily staying.

Looking up, Ye Anlan, who was walking at the front of the line, saw a handsome young man standing outside the door who was about to raise his hand to knock on the door.

The boy was none other than Zhou Mingzhe, whom Ye Anlan rescued once when he saw injustice on the road. He came to thank Ye Anlan.

His younger brother didn't have a fever last night, and after eating breakfast today, his mental state has improved visibly to the naked eye.

Although Zhou Mingzhe is not very old, he has already experienced many changes in human relationships. He is not only grateful for the kindness and help from strangers, but also wants to repay one or two.

After meeting Ye Anlan and the others, Zhou Mingzhe explained his intentions somewhat cautiously, "Although I have no strength to restrain a chicken, I dare not pretend to have read poetry and books, but Miss Ye's great kindness, even if I am heartbroken." Return one or two."

Ye Anlan was very relieved, but she really didn't need this child to repay her. She said to Zhou Mingzhe, "The most important thing you should do now is to take good care of your brother. As for me, to be honest, there is nothing you can do here." of."

With a puff, Zhou Mingzhe felt an arrow shot in his heart.

His handsome face was flushed, "Then I will borrow money here, and I will definitely do it before you leave Yuyang County."

Ye Anlan waved her hand, "Are you still planning to stay in Yuyang County?"

Zhou Mingzhe was taken aback.

Ye Anlan said again: "That black-hearted matchmaker is still together with her husband and son, and I tied them up and threw them in their house. When I leave, she will probably trouble you because of her grudge?"

Although she is sorry to leave a tail for Zhou Mingzhe, but she can't kill people all over the house just because the other party failed to kidnap and sell.
Huh?A flash of inspiration flashed in Ye Anlan's mind, "By the way, I forgot to ask you, that matchmaker, you are not the only person she has harmed, right?"

Zhou Mingzhe was a little confused, "To be honest, this is the first time I have dealt with this matchmaker. Before Yuyang County was ransacked by the rebels, our Zhou family had all dealt with Guanya."

Although Guan Ya also has unscrupulous people, Guan Ya, who has dealt with the Zhou family for many years, is obviously not among the unscrupulous people.

If it wasn't for the fact that Guan Ya with a good reputation either died or fled, Zhou Mingzhe wouldn't have begged in front of that black-hearted toothmaid.

"That's fine. Then I'll ask someone to inquire with other residents around here." Ye Anlan didn't make things difficult for him, "Go back and take care of your brother first, we'll talk about other things tomorrow."

Zhou Mingzhe was very stubborn, "Mingyuan is already able to take care of himself, I have to raise money before everyone leaves."

Ye Anlan's head hurts, "Why are you so awkward?"

Zhou Mingzhe:? ? ?

He humbly asked, "Dare to ask Miss Ye, what does the axis mean?"

Ye Anlan:
She waved her hand, "Come in and sit down first, I have something to ask you."

Hearing this, Zhou Mingzhe silently followed Ye Anlan and the others into the yard.

Asking Yang Xiaotao and the others to arrange the newly bought things, Ye Anlan signaled Zhou Mingzhe to sit down next to the dining table in the yard, "I want to ask you, do you have any relatives or friends in other places that you can rely on?"

Zhou Mingzhe smiled wryly, and shook his head lightly, "Our Zhou family's ancestral home is far away in the suburbs of Beijing. With the current chaos, I really can't bring Mingyuan back home safely."

Otherwise, why would he be stuck in Yuyang County, refusing to move even a single step?

Ye Anlan didn't continue to ask him if he could go to his grandfather's house. Since Zhou Mingzhe refused to say it, there must be something to hide.

She stared at Zhou Mingzhe and thought for a moment, "Then would you like to join our team with your brother?"

It's not that she wants to pick it up and admire it every day when she sees that the parents are good. She wants to find a free Mr. who can take over from her and teach everyone how to read and count.

With him teaching everyone every day, Ye Anlan can spare more time to practice the inner strength and lightness skills left to her by her senior brother who only met once.

Then there is Zhou Mingyuan, that child heard about her beating the matchmaker's family before, even though he was ill, his eyes were shining brightly, which shows that he is very interested in martial arts.

The 11 years old half-child is easy to train and easy to handle, but it is much more cost-effective than her trying to teach Father Yang.
