Chapter 16 Going to the Town

"Mother still remember when I fell off a cliff and a kind-hearted person brought me back, right? That one has a powerful master who has a very effective wound medicine at hand. He passed by a few days ago and gave me a bottle of wound medicine, Originally, my injury was almost healed, but it healed quickly after eating it."

Shen Yunyao explained to Liu Shi after returning from the toilet.

"Wow, it's so good, my sister won't need crutches in the future." Shen Yunzhen cheered.

Liu Shi and others were very happy in their hearts, but they kept ignoring one thing, why Shen Yunyao, a weak woman, never screamed because of her leg injury after breaking her leg.

They don't sell noodles today.Because of yesterday's incident, Liu's family planned to suspend business for three days, wait for the storm to pass, and also collect mung beans to make Liangpi easier.

Yesterday evening, Mrs. Liu told the village about the collection of mung beans at home. The purchase price was eight cents per pound, and many people came over.

At the same time, in the wing of the Fu'an Restaurant in the town, Mu Hanxiao was having breakfast while Xiao Qing and Xiao Feng stood aside.

Xiao Feng went to Shen's house with Mu Hanxiao last night. He didn't expect that girl to reject the master's solicitation.

"Master, your attitude yesterday was too good. That girl is too ignorant. Do you want to teach her a lesson?"

Mu Hanxiao put down his chopsticks, "Intuition that she still has unknown skills, wait and see."

Xiao Qing said, "What if she is more capable than we know, but refuses to submit?"

Mu Hanxiao snorted coldly, "Of course I can't get it, and others can't get it. I don't like killing innocent people indiscriminately. If she can't be subdued, it doesn't mean that you can't cooperate. Take advantage of it."

Xiao Feng obediently said: "Master is wise!"

At the end of the day, Liu's harvested more than 40 catties of mung beans.The mung beans grown in each family are not particularly large, and some people only sell two or three catties.

Shen Yunyao saw Liu Shi, who had lost a lot of weight during this time, and thought that it was time for this business to change hands, otherwise the cheap mother would probably get tired.

After dinner, she enjoyed the cool air with Liu Shi in the yard and expressed her thoughts.

"You said that you can make money by handing this noodle stall to others? What if someone else learns our family's things?" Liu Shi felt that it was not very reliable.

Shen Yunyao explained: "We press the noodles to dry at home, and we can make cold noodles early, including the stewed soup. We only hire two people to cook the noodles and collect the money to carry the bowls. Forty wen per person per day."

"How can I make sure that people don't lie to us when they collect money?" Shen Yunhao asked curiously, "How about I collect the money?"

Shen Yunyao: "At home, divide the amount of each bowl of noodles. You can probably count how many bowls you sell every day. You, you are nine years old now, it's time to study. The money at home is enough to buy pen, ink, paper and inkstone, so let's go to the clan school. Mother, what do you think?"

Mrs. Liu used to look forward to her son's studies. During this time, she only cared about earning money. If she wanted to earn more, she would be more comfortable. She didn't care about her son's studies.

"Your sister is right, you have earned some money during this time, enough for you to study. I will go to town tomorrow to buy pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and by the way, our family will also make new clothes."

Shen Yunyao looked down at the patched clothes on her body, although they were shabby, they were clean.

When she first came here, she was really not used to wearing this patch of clothes, and she did a long time to build herself up.

Shen Yunhao lowered his head and said in a low voice, "I don't want to study, so let's make money first. The family is still short of money. It takes a lot of money to find my father."

Shen Yunyao looked at the sensible big brother and patted his shoulder, "You can do anything at any age, you are in the reading grade now. Your memory is not bad. Reading must be great. If you become a scholar in the future, you will The more people you know, the faster you can find your father."

Shen Yunhao raised his small face, looked at Shen Yunyao, his eyes lit up gloomily, "Then, then I'll study first."

"Well, it's not just you, I also want to read it. You go to the clan school every day and come back to teach me."

Shen Yunzhen threw herself into Shen Yunhao's arms, "Big brother, I want to learn too."

Shen Yunhan raised his small hand and shouted, "There is also me, I also want to learn."

Shen Yunyao clapped her palms, "Okay, okay, big brother will teach us then."

Liu Shi looked at the noisy children with relief.

"Mother, after hiring someone to open a noodle stall, in addition to preparing the ingredients for the noodle stall at home, we can also do the flower wrapping business at home." Shen Yunyao took the opportunity to talk about the practice of wrapping flowers.

Liu Shi tangled for a while, and his heart gradually became firm, "Whether you can make money, you will find out. Hiring someone can really free up time. Although the cost increases, it is still within the acceptable range. You can also take a look at the town. Is there a suitable place to open a noodle stall?"

"Don't worry, mother, the tangled flowers are very good-looking and real. Who doesn't want to buy them." Shen Yunyao is very confident in the tangled flowers business.

Early the next morning, Mrs. Liu woke up the children and simply ate something before going to pull the ox cart borrowed yesterday and put a diabolo basket that could be carried.

The twins were excited for the first time on the ox cart, bouncing around on the cart.

It was also the first time for Shen Yunyao to sit, and she deliberately spread a layer of straw on the trolley.

When the group arrived in the town, Mrs. Liu found a place to store the ox cart before taking the child shopping.In order to keep the child from getting lost, Mrs. Liu carried the diabolo basket and carried Shen Yunhan, while Shen Yunyao held Shen Yunzhen.

There is a street in Nafang City, where most of the buying and selling shops are concentrated.

Shen Yunzhen and Shen Yunhan looked left and looked again, so excited they could not wait to run down the ground.

They entered a cloth house.

"How do you sell this cotton cloth?" Liu Shi pointed to the blue sackcloth and asked.

The female clerk of the cloth village looked at it and said: "22 Wen a Zhang."

"Buy a zhang, and a half zhang of muslin."

Shen Yunyao reminded in a low voice, "Mother, and silk."

"Do you have any silk at home?" Liu Shi added.

"Yes, here, all kinds of silk. How much?" The female worker came over with a basket and showed Liu Shi.

Liu looked at Shen Yunyao, and Shen Yunyao said immediately: "Light green, pink. These two small rolls are enough. Send us some rags."

"Okay, I'll order some rags for you later. A total of 82 articles." The female clerk finished her calculations.

Liu paid the money and put the things he bought into the bamboo basket behind him.The group left the cloth village and saw a jewelry shop within a few steps.

Shen Yunyao walked in quickly, Liu Shi and Shen Yunhao followed.

Jewelry shops also sell copper wire of various thicknesses.

Shen Yunyao bought five thick and thin ones, and spent ten cents.

She saw that there were no tangled flowers in the jewelry store, and the hairpin jewelry made of gold, silver and copper was a little rough, with not many styles, and the price was quite expensive for her now.

A silver hairpin with a simple pattern costs 550 Wen.Three hundred copper hairpins of the same style.

Shen Yunyao bought what she wanted and was satisfied, she left the jewelry store and followed her mother a few steps behind.

"Brothers and sisters, why did you come to town? Come, the children eat candy." A plump lady wearing a silver hairpin and a muslin dress greeted warmly, holding a greased paper bag in one hand and holding candy in the other.

Shen Yunyao looked at this lady a little familiar, but couldn't remember who it was.
