My live broadcast room communicates ancient and modern

Chapter 191 Guest officers take a look inside

Before the news came back, Xu Laosan and Lao Si had just returned from buying porcelain jars from Xishan Town.

By the way, I also brought back two big geese and a basket of eggs.

"Where did the goose come from? I didn't let you buy it. I just collected the eggs a few days ago. Why are you buying it again?" Mrs. Xu asked while helping her granddaughter make yellow cypress.

"Blacksmith Wu from the town gave it to Tian Xin.

Blacksmith Wu said that he never expected that when he helped Tian Xin dig out some scrap iron from the snow, he would actually have the town and pavilion send people to him to place an order.

The town asked for twenty as soon as they asked for it, and it was quite satisfying to give the money to the Yamen.

Isn't that right? If we passed by his house, he might have recognized our car.

His old wife grabbed the goose by the neck and stood astride the egg basket, forcing us to force ourselves into the car and force us to bring back whatever we didn't want. "

Mrs. Xu laughed and said, "Are there only two of the geese left in Blacksmith Wu's house? Okay, that's how human relationships are, the more you move around, the thicker they get. Leave them there, it just so happens that I didn't stock up on geese this time. If Tian Xin doesn't eat them, , I’ll stew it and sell it, and with the money, I’ll buy her something else to eat.”

Xu Laosan saw a bed of yellow cypress. He had just arrived home. He was obviously freezing but couldn't sit still. He said, "I'm going to see if the caravan has come. I'll pick up some yellow cypress and save it."

I heard from Uncle Guan that one bag is worth two taels of silver. Taking home ten bags is equivalent to a net income of more than 20 taels. If you have nothing to do, just go and pick it up.

Mrs. Xu glared at her, as if she was heartless.

Medicine halls are not allowed to accept cork of unknown origin, and the government is on guard against picking it up casually.After all, it won't be of much use to ordinary people no matter how much they don't know how to use it as medicine, so why bother saving it?
And there are many doctors who know how to use it as medicine. If they are reported, they will be arrested if they are discovered.

To put it bluntly, if someone dares to recycle and give money, will it still be the third child’s turn?Just Guan Erbald could peel off the bark of a tree until it was balder than his hair, and he would have become rich long ago.

Mrs. Xu handed over the medicinal soup that her granddaughter had specially made for the two uncles and said: "Just stay at home. I don't dare to walk around without looking at you. I left all the stalls in the village and you have to let your grandma watch. Caravan It’s coming soon, it’s normal to drink hot soup as soon as you’re too cold.”

Xu Lao San and Xu Lao Si became nauseated as soon as they were told to drink hot soup.

Ever since Xu Tianxin announced that he would start studying medicine, his family, from the oldest to the youngest, now takes tonics.

It is said that the three brothers drank Sanhuang Decoction, which can disinfect all the way from the stomach to the small intestine.

And not only do you drink soup during the day, but you also need to take medicine at night.

Although I feel better, this is too much...

Life and death are destiny, wealth is in heaven.

Xu Laosan really wanted to suggest that his niece should learn fortune telling again.Then let him do the math and see if it's worth it.If his fate is very serious, he will go to the battlefield and behead people, let alone spend money on medicine.Last time I heard the soldiers say that if you kill a minor official, you can get 50 taels. He killed a hundred or so and brought them back to his mother.

Xu Laosi frowned and drank the decoction, while speaking seriously to Mrs. Xu:
"Mom, there is something I have wanted to say for a long time. If Tian Xin insists on studying medicine, we will wait until she is almost busy and doesn't want to make any more money. By then, our family will have enough money to support her.

Then send him to Fucheng or find a serious gentleman somewhere else.

I am not being particular about my Uncle Guan, but take a look, our good girl has been picking up rags in the village every day since she followed Uncle Guan.

Uncle Guan is famous for picking up all kinds of feces, chicken droppings, cicada shells, stove ashes, centipedes, peanut skins, corn silks, and even egg skins as treasures.

In his eyes, fingernails and hair are medicine.

I am really worried that after a few years of learning from him, our nice girl will have flies all over the house.

And our family is no longer in the difficult days it used to be, so why bother.Even if Tian Xin doesn't earn a penny so far, we can afford it if we spend a little less.

Guess what I heard Uncle Guan and our Tian Xin say that day? "

"What did you say?"

"Uncle Guan is still complacent, saying that he only started picking up rags when he was in his 30s, while Tian Xin started it at the age of 20, and it took [-] years less detours than him."

The key niece responded and said with a smile, Grandpa, then I do start at a higher level than you.

Speaking of her niece, "Where's Tian Xin, making hemorrhoid cream at home?" Alas, how much Xu Youyin hoped that her niece would just play with flowers and plants.

The reason why Xu Youyin asked her niece if she was in the village was because she didn't dare to occupy the new shop room anymore for fear that the caravan would arrive at any time.Wang Yusheng's house was previously occupied and vacated after he hurriedly made the fragrant rice noodles. The Kang of Wang Yusheng's house has not been completely dried yet.

The niece arranged for twenty soap-making girls and twenty old men's men to work at the house of the lonely old man in the village and paid rent money.There, one group of people was boiling sophora odorifera and the other group was boiling the base of facial oil.

However, Tian Xin seems to be no longer busy after changing from his normal state. He is always running out recently.

For example, when clearing snow before, it was clear that my niece did not need to suffer the consequences of stealing tree bark at the border, they could just steal it.My niece still has time to teach everyone how to ski.

Mrs. Xu didn't take her younger son's complaint seriously.

The granddaughter greeted her and said, "Grandma, I'm going to follow Grandpa Guan to pick up garbage in the village. Don't be dissatisfied. That's what learning Chinese medicine is like. It's learning."

Because once you study medicine, you can't just treat rich people to make money. Why not do something else?Therefore, if you want to treat more ordinary people, you must master a lot of local methods.After all, for most people, it is better to spend less money and have slow curative effects of home remedies than to directly prescribe expensive medicines and have a more cost-effective operation.

When her granddaughter said something like this, how could Mrs. Xu still dislike picking up rags and making scraps?

Just pick it up. Fortunately, her granddaughter can make money, and her family's current conditions are good. If she can't help but go to other people's houses to pick up feces, others will think that Tian Xin has a new way to make money, and she won't pay attention to other things behind her back.

When she heard the fourth child wondering why Tian Xin kept running out recently, Mrs. Xu glared at the fourth child.

Xu Laosi looked confused. What did he say?It's just troublesome.

Mrs. Xu thought to herself: It's really annoying, why are you so thoughtful?

What could be the reason?for live broadcast.

She couldn't just make hemorrhoid ointments and facial creams through live broadcasts again and again in one day. She suggested that her granddaughter go out for a run and ski, and then sneak something to stimulate her at the junction of live broadcasts.

Yes, the few taels of silver earned from live broadcasting are no longer so important.

But no matter when the time comes, the family members in the live broadcast room have a special status, and it will always be worthy of them and their grandchildren to put down their livelihood of making money to broadcast new scenes.

In Mrs. Xu's view, without her family, she wouldn't be where she is today.

However, at this time, Mrs. Xu really didn't know where her granddaughter had gone. Just as she was about to reply that she must have gone back to the village, she heard a distinguished guest arrive outside.

Yes, Mrs. Xu immediately understood where her granddaughter had gone.

You must have heard the background music in the live broadcast room change, and some distant guest asked you to stay.The young man stood at attention and said that the girl was beautiful, and the mother vomited something like that in the northeast. After that, she hitched the sledge and ran away.

And why not let someone else greet the guests? At present, those dogs only recognize her granddaughter.

On weekdays, Liu Laozhu is able to feed, but sometimes Liu Laozhu can't control where he runs. He often goes on a spontaneous trip. He doesn't know where he will go, depending on the mood of the dogs.

Every time Liu Laozhu drives his dog and sledge out, he always takes two big pancakes with him.

Far away.

Mrs. Xu hurriedly packed up the yellow cypress and stood up, asking the third child to carry him away quickly.

Come on, come on, they are really coming.

"How many people came?"

No one expected that Budai, who was only eight years old, would be the fastest kid in the village to learn to ski.

Budai thought about the code sent back by Sister Tian Xin using the suona, and told everyone: "About 300 people."

After a stick of incense:

"Welcome, gentlemen, please come in!" The bathing team, the fire-making team, the cooking team, the livestock team, and the unloading team, from oldest to youngest, stood in two long lines to greet the guests. They were lined up on the avenue, gesturing to come in.

Erdaohe Village, next to the one-eyed snowman.

To be honest, the guest officers were a little scared at first when they saw Xu Tianxin driving a sledge truck with ten big dogs, and then standing on the sledge truck and blowing the suona into the distance.

It seemed like I was sending a message to someone in advance, and I always felt like I was going to rob their goods next.

But he still followed firmly.

Because the road signs everywhere are not as clearly written as here. Basically, every ten miles line will tell you how far you still have to go before you can get there.

It was too cold. It all depended on how many miles we had left to hold on.Therefore, they felt that if it was fake and marked in such detail, the Zhenbei General Mansion would not allow it.

In addition, it started snowing after passing Shanhaiguan. They had never seen the road cleared of snow so cleanly. Looking at the signboard, if you understood correctly, it was Erdaoheqing. They were escorting them and I wished them well. A long journey ahead.

It has to come, no matter how good or bad it is, at least stay for one night and warm it up first.

Now, finally, the tea merchants were a little surprised by the enthusiasm.

Along the way, not to mention that I have never seen such a large car shop in a village. Even the inns in major cities are not so hospitable.

This team of tea merchants has a convoy of 300 mule carts, with a total of [-] people escorting and following the carts.

Mrs. Xu didn't say any polite words first. Under Liu Laozhu's introduction, after getting to know the biggest leader of the caravan, named Zhang, she made an invitation gesture.While signaling to follow her into the house to warm up quickly, he quickly asked, should you feed the mules and eat your own food, or should you use ours?

In fact, Mrs. Xu already has the answer in her heart.

The caravan is so cold and suffering such a serious crime, are you here for fun?If there is more room to load a few carts of fodder, it is better to load a few more carts of tea. For such a big deal, of course I bought it.

Sure enough, here is different from modern times. The animals must always be arranged to eat and rest first. Leader Zhang knew the roads well at first sight and asked you how to sell fodder?

"The cost of chewing a mule per day is 45 cents. Each mule will be fed [-] kilograms of fodder, roughage, corn straw, corn stalks, and wheat straw every day. Five kilograms of concentrate. The concentrate contains corn, sorghum, soybeans, and black beans. Feed. Water, simple scrubbing, and care are all provided by us."

Calculate the cost, no one is a fool.The cost is 160 five cents.Collect fodder money from fellow villagers. Do you need dozens of coins for a few kilograms?The fellow villagers delivered the goods to their homes.There is also five kilograms of fine material and wages for hiring someone to feed it.

And this caravan has [-] mules, which requires many people to work, and they can earn five taels after a busy day.The five taels of silver are still given to the Liu Laozhu, Xu family, Meizhuang, Wang, etc. families, and these families who contributed the money and land to build the livestock sheds share the five taels of silver.

A long livestock shed like Xujiagai can only be divided into one and two halves.

So it's no wonder that Team Leader Zhang showed a slightly surprised expression.Although he didn't want others to see it in a flash, everyone knew in their hearts that Erdaohe was not black.

Do you know how much money they spend on feeding livestock in Fucheng for just one day?Exactly doubled.

Even if the store is worth a lot more than here, it can't be doubled, it's too dark.

And along the way, the cheapest deals are those done by people in the villages along the road, which are also two taels more expensive than the prices here.

Team Leader Zhang: As expected, this is the first merchant that has always seemed very considerate since entering Zhenbei.This was his first impression of meeting the people of Erdaohe Village, and it was excellent.

I don’t think I sat on the ground and raised the price because I saw that they were tired and didn’t want to go on the road anymore. I guess these people can be fed well.

"Sorry for the trouble, store, it's up to you to feed me."

Liu Laozhu immediately organized the mule team, hurry up, help unload the truck and unload the goods, and let the mules into the shed.

As a general leader, Leader Zhang is very tired. He can leave all other matters to his subordinates, but the goods are the most important.

So while the truck was being unloaded, Team Leader Zhang took the initiative to ask if there was a storage warehouse. If it could hold his more than 6 kilograms of tea, how much money would be needed to put it in the storage room? He would be in charge of the keys, and it would be best if there were five people in the warehouse. Stay and see the goods.

Mrs. Xu understood and immediately led people to her empty house.No business was done in this empty house. The elder's room was built and left unused, and so many wooden partitions were built to set up a kang. Her second son was tired to death. It was time to get back to where he started:
“It shouldn’t be a problem to put things in this room.

These locks are all new, you can choose one, and the windows can be inserted in reverse.

This house costs three taels of silver a day. To be honest, all it costs is the price of hiring someone to burn the house and the price of firewood.

Otherwise, I can rent it out. Isn't this a mutual trade? Even though we are a village, we can make a lot of money by renting out a year.

In addition, I see that the goods you brought are tea. I will ask the helper to bring in a few basins of water and place them in various corners to try to make this room as humid as possible. We are dry in the north. If the Kang and the fire wall heat up, it will be even more dry. "

"I didn't expect this store to know how to store tea leaves?"

Mrs. Xu waved her hand and said humbly: "You asked around before you came, and then let the children read the books to understand something. I am afraid that the goods of you distant guests will be ruined. I heard that tea that is too dry is No, it tastes tasteless."

Mrs. Xu looked at Leader Zhang and smiled and said, "Why don't you tell me, it's really a distinguished guest. The children are right. Tea merchants have been trading with each other since ancient times. I heard that it is better to go without food for three days than to go without tea for one day. They eat meat, which makes them tired. What’s more, as the saying goes, three glasses of wine are enough to make a thousand worlds worth of great achievements. Even a little old lady like me knows that tea is indispensable when talking about big things."

"You're so flattering. Compared to the grain merchants, salt merchants, and silk and jewelry merchants in the back, I don't care. There are too many caravans in the back. I guess they will all settle here."

Mrs. Xu burst into laughter, "It's so good, please come quickly."

What Mrs. Xu didn't know was that Liu Laozhu and the others were dumbfounded by what she had just said to others. Was she tutoring behind their backs?

And the team leader with this seal was gesturing to his men to move the goods after selecting the keys.

While he went outside and squinted at the plaque, he said, "Auntie, your surname is Xu, right? Do you own these shops?"

He wanted to make friends because there was so much horse dung outside the wall.

Horses are for military and official use, and coupled with Mrs. Xu's manner of speaking, no one would believe her if she said she had no background.He is a caravan from out of town again, and may come more than once in the future.

He had already seen that the aunt in front of him had the final say here.The one who is upright, step aside.

"Yes, my husband's surname is Xu, these are my family's shops."

"I've noticed these two plaques since I came in. The Western Fish Promise, the promise of one's body, does it have any meaning?"

Mrs. Xu: The meaning is that you have never learned Pinyin, Xiyu, Xu.Jiangyou happens to be in the west of the village, and his family mainly sells fish.The restaurant got its name.

very casual.

As for committing yourself to each other, that's a bathhouse.If you don't give your body to us, how can you take a bath?

Taking advantage of the situation, Mrs. Xu led Leader Zhang to visit the big bathhouse.

Liu Laozhu once again admired Mrs. Xu's daily generosity.

In recent days, even though the caravan clearly did not come, Mrs. Xu still asked everyone to burn the boiler.It is required that the bathhouse must be filled with hot air as soon as you enter the room, and several large pools must be filled with bubbling hot water to keep people warm at the first glance.

Liu Laozhu tried to persuade us, saying that our hall was too big, and it would take a lot of water and firewood to burn it. Moreover, there were about twenty and a half men hired to make the fire, and they would go in from the side of the house and burn it underground. The wages would be quite high in one day.

When the caravan arrives, let's burn it again. It will warm us up in more than half an hour.If you live your life without planning, you will suffer from poverty.

Tian Xin Nai took what he said as fart and didn't listen to him. Look, you're right for not listening to him.

If people see that it's freezing in the house, it's better to go to the hot kang and wait for the meal. Then can you still take a bath?
Mrs. Xu was introducing: "This is a cabinet for storing clothes. Several pools together can wash more than 70 people at a time. Each person has a key and cannot open other people's cabinets. We don't have spare keys, so don't Lost it. You can store your changes of clothes in the small cabinet."

Xu Laoer: Do you know why he hasn’t shown up for several days?I couldn't finish the carpentry work at all, so I had to work for my mother again.

Although he did not build these cabinets, he was working for his niece at the time.

But those wooden door locks and wooden keys were all made by him.He was also forced to teach himself. After being reminded by his niece, he set the lock cylinder with different buckles. Otherwise, one key could open all the doors, and guests would not be able to safely store their belongings.

While Mrs. Xu was talking to Leader Zhang, the members of the bathing team were also behind, lobbying the caravan to follow other people who came to watch the fun.

The reason is very good.Look, it's all steaming, look at your eager little eyes, the meal will have to wait a while.

"It's been a cold day for a few days now. My hands and feet are freezing. What better to do? Why don't I take a bath, rinse first and then soak, talking and laughing. Come on, guests, please come inside!"

Leader Zhang and the other leaders smiled and washed their feet. Their feet were stinging from the cold. They had to hand over the goods tomorrow, so they had to wash them thoroughly.

Mrs. Xu quickly took advantage of this to get busy. The bathers here have all been trained and know how to answer questions. Just call the second brother to come and collect the money together with the fourth uncle.

"How many letters per person?"

Liu Laozhu's voice came from inside and replied:

“We have package tickets, which come in several categories.

A large package ticket costs 150 yuan per person, which includes tickets, bath, and fragrant soup.

Let me introduce this fragrant soup list, which includes the medicinal bag soaked in the large pool to relax muscles and activate blood circulation, as well as toothbrush and toothpaste.There is fine salt in toothpaste. Anyone who uses it will know that it is very good.

Then you shampoo your hair, bathe your body, and after washing, apply facial oil on your face, as well as oil on your body and feet.Yes, it also includes cupping, scraping, massage, and refreshments.

The small package includes washing and rubbing, which costs seventy cents per person. There is a medicine bag in the pool, but nothing else.

There are also comfortable single tickets available for 45 cents each. "

Liu Laozhu said with a smile on his face and a cloth handkerchief on his arm: "Finally, there is a super rich man, one hundred and seventeen per person, and he will wash your clothes from inside to outside."
