Daming: Wanted to be a small landlord, but was forced to ascend the throne

Chapter 38
"It's useless to see him, I haven't seen him, and I don't know what he looks like!"

Qin Shao said with a sigh.

"Master, have you never seen Master Qin?"

The third son exclaimed in surprise.

"never seen it!"

Not only had he never seen it, the original Qin Shao had never seen it either.

Qin Ming had been away from home for more than ten years, and it seemed that he only went back once.

Qin Shao really doesn't understand the relationship between husband and wife in this era.

If he lived in the era, he would probably have been divorced long ago!
Not to mention that men are looking for mistresses, women should also wear several cuckolds for men.

Little Sanzi always felt that his fate was rough, but he didn't expect his family to suffer such a miserable life.

Not only is he closer and more sympathetic to his grandfather.

Early the next morning, Qin Shao told Granny Jin about his plan to go shopping.

The old lady was very enthusiastic and introduced several shops with relatively affordable daily necessities.

Jin Da had to take them there.

Qin Shao didn't want to delay Jin Da's business, so he refused.

He took his third son and Han Jinrong to push the cart to the market street.

What to buy, how much to buy, Qin Shao really didn't know.

In his previous life, he was a bachelor, and he fed the whole family by himself, and he often made a living by taking out food.

Once in a good mood, I cook some meals.

Now that three people are eating together, and what is there in ancient times, he really has no idea.

Therefore, it was Han Jinrong who made up his mind.

This girl, no, this little lady!

When he got here, Qin Shao knew that girls here are called little ladies, and girls are rarely called girls.

For example, Han Jinrong, then call her Miss Han.

I called other girls all the way, and asked my little third son to follow suit, so it wasn't called that way.

lady!

Why is this address so awkward, like taking advantage of others.

You know, in the world he originally lived in, a lady means a wife.

Han Jinrong is a daughter of an aristocratic family. She is good at needlework at home and has also learned the skills of a housekeeper. She is very good at arranging things.

Early in the morning, I borrowed a pen and paper.

Yes, I borrowed paper and pens, and paper and pens are also very expensive in this era!

The Jin family doesn't have those at all, and there are no scholars in their family.

Fortunately, there is an old scholar who lives next door. He happened to have one at home, so he borrowed it.

"Master, we can buy 3 buckets of rice! It's hot, and if you buy too much, it's easy to get worms."

After settling down, Han Jinrong seemed to be in a good mood and talked a lot along the way.

"Just look at the arrangement, add two more fights, and give some to Jin Da and the others at that time."

Qin Shao said.

He's smudged about a lot of things here now.

For example, Han Jinrong said 3 buckets of rice, he has no idea how much it is.

He only knew that this thing was a unit in ancient times, and he knew that this unit was in the previous life when he was in junior high school.

As for how many catties of grain this bucket is, I have no idea.

They inquired about the location of the grain store and rushed directly to it.

"Oh! The price of this food is getting more and more expensive! When there is no more war, it will be great if the price of food comes down!"

The crowd was talking.

"What's the price today!"

"what is the price!"

"5 bucks a stone!"

"Hey! Another 50 points!"

Qin Shao didn't know how these catties and money were converted.

But according to the history books, a stone of rice in Ming Dynasty is about 180 catties in the previous life, and 1 tael of silver is equal to 10 qian;
That means half a tael of silver can buy 180 catties of rice.

This doesn't sound very expensive, at least they eat food, which should be affordable given their current status.

"How many buckets is a stone?"

Qin Shao asked Han Jinrong.

The little girl was listening to others talking about the price, and she was also asking which rice grain was cheaper.

"A stone is 10 buckets!"

The third son said directly.

And looked at Qin Shao with a strange expression.

How could their grandfather ask such a question? You must know that his grandfather is omnipotent in his eyes.

Why are you asking such a simple question?

"I'm just asking."

Qin Shao said embarrassingly, hiding his embarrassment.

Han Jinrong was inquiring about the price of grain and didn't pay attention to their question at all.

One stone is 10 buckets, and they want to buy 3 buckets, which is more than 50 catties.

Think about the weight of rice in the previous life, which is the amount of a middle bag.

Add another 2 buckets, just enough to share some with Mrs. Jin and the others.

There are three food sellers in total, all with the same price, but I finally chose the one I just entered.

The quality of his rice is better.

I bought five buckets of rice for 250 Wen!

Qin Shao thinks the price is still cheap!
After the grain is bought, it can be stored here first, and they go to buy other things.

They went to the cloth shop first, planning to buy clothes for no one to go out.

The clothes I wear now are old clothes.

People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. If you go to find your own cheap father, you may encounter what happens. First of all, you can't make people look down on you.

Qin Shao was lamenting that the price of grain in Daming was not bad, but he didn't realize what it meant to be expensive when he arrived at Buzhuang!

A piece of white cloth costs 2 qian silver, and two more pieces of cloth can buy nearly a stone of grain. The price is indeed not cheap.

It's just plain white cloth.

Silk and satin are even more expensive, 6 taels of silver a piece!
Thinking about my belongings of 500 taels of silver, this life is just beginning!
But the money that should be spent has to be spent!
Finding a father is an important matter, and then you have to think about how to make money.

Even if they can't settle down in Anlu Prefecture, they still have to spend money to go to other places.

Saving money is not enough to make money, and the issue of making money must be considered in the future.

Han Jinrong is actually very good at haggling prices.

I don't know how to bargain with the shopkeeper, but the shopkeeper actually took out the cloth in the color that was popular last year, and it was much cheaper.

"Master, I know how to embroider. Last year's popular colors are taken out and I can improve them. They are definitely not worse than this year's!"

Han Jinrong was full of confidence.

"Girl, you are amazing!"

The third son said in admiration.

Qin Shao also nodded in satisfaction.

This lady was also a good hand in the era he lived in.

Next, I bought the necessities of firewood, rice, oil, salt and energy.

The third son stood still in front of a meat stall. It turned out that the pork sellers over there were full of meat aroma.

"Go buy some meat and take it home!"

Qin Shao ordered.

"Master, we have to save flowers, Master Qin hasn't found it yet..."

Han Jinrong is now managing expenses, which is called increasing revenue and reducing expenditure.

Qin Shao told her to just buy the fabrics earlier.

She only sold silk and satin to Qin Shao, saying that if he wanted to go to the Yamen to inquire about people, it was not good to wear too shabby.

She and the third son bought ordinary cotton cloth.

Now that she is asked to sell the meat, the little girl feels distressed again.

"Let's earn money slowly, let's satisfy our greed first!"

Qin Shao said directly.

He hasn't eaten meat for a long time!Satisfy your appetite first!
According to someone's guidance, they came to the butcher's stall.

"Master! Look at that butcher, isn't it the man who beat Brother Jin that day?"

Little Sanzi suddenly pointed to the front and shouted.

Qin Shao looked up, and sure enough, he saw the little butcher Hu at the butcher shop.
