My whole family traveled across time with an encyclopedia

Chapter 110 Western Regions Merchant
"Father, according to what you said, isn't it very dangerous for us now, and we may be involved in the battlefield at any time?!"

Ning Qingxi said in shock after hearing the news Ning Changrong had inquired from the county.

Ning Changrong's expression turned ugly, "I don't know when the call will come. I think the court is unreliable. The country will soon be destroyed."

"Then what about my grandma? She is still selling things with Grandma Lai in the county, and we don't know when those rebels will call. If they suddenly call and the county is closed again, what shall we do? "

Ning Changrong is also worried about this matter. In ancient times, transportation was not well developed, and ordinary people at the bottom knew nothing about the outside world.

After hearing the news today, this matter is like the sword of Damox hanging above my head, and it feels like it will fall at any time.

Don't you stop making money and wait every day in their village?Waiting for those people to run away as soon as they come?
Ning Qingxi looked at her father without speaking for a long time, and said anxiously: "Father, otherwise, don't let my grandma sell things in the county, we spend money to ask people in the county to help us sell, can't they still hire the shopkeeper? We also hire a shopkeeper of a cold drink shop, at most we will earn a little less."

Ning Changrong's eyes lit up, this is also a good way, if you ask someone to help them sell in the county, you only need to check the account when you go to deliver the goods every week.

"That's a good idea."

Ning Qingxi looked worried, "Then we just said yesterday that Grandma Lai would go to the county to help, and call her back in two days, isn't it good?"

The plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and Ning Changrong didn't expect the situation to be so serious.

If you don't call him back, when something happens in the county, Mrs. Lai will definitely be blocked in the city gate.

Although it is said that their family must have run away by then, and they don't have to worry about explaining to anyone, but this conscience is a bit difficult, after all, they knew the news in advance that something would happen.

But if you call them back, you only asked someone to help you yesterday, and you call them back today, what is that?
After thinking for a long time, Ning Changrong said, "There shouldn't be any accidents for a while, so don't scare yourself, don't you think there are still people shopping in that county?"

If an enemy is really approaching, their cold drink business will definitely be affected, and as soon as the business drops, they will withdraw immediately!
"Look at another month, no matter what, let Aunt Lai finish this month. Then I will find someone to replace them."

……

After Ning Changrong understood his daughter's thoughts, he completely handed over the layout of the mountain to Ning Qingxi, and asked her to direct the two uncles to work.

He himself ran to the market every three days to inquire about news.

When I have time, I will take some food and living supplies home, and secretly transport them to the mountains with cattle during the night.

When Ning Changrong was visiting the West Market, he unexpectedly found a blond man with blue eyes.

This was the first time he saw a foreigner, with blond hair and green eyes. People around him were far away from this person, and they were pointing at each other.

When he was inquiring about the news before, he had also heard that Nan Chen occupied the Central Plains, but now, the northern part of the Central Plains no longer belonged to Nan Chen.

To the north is Beiqiong Kingdom, the people there are good at riding and shooting, and they are very good at horseback.

To the east is the endless sea. I heard that many people have never heard from them after they went to sea.

To the west is the Western Regions, and the people there look different from those in the Central Plains.

There are also many people from the Western Regions who come to Nanchen to do business, but these Western Region businessmen go to the big cities in the north, and rarely come to their remote Taixi County.

Therefore, not many people know people from the Western Regions. Many people thought that the people from the Western Regions were monsters at first.

If it weren't for this westerner who knew a few words of Central Plains dialect, he would have been arrested and burned to death long ago.

In addition, there are many businessmen in the West Market, knowing that people from the Western Regions have blond hair and blue eyes, which is different from the black hair and black eyes of people from the Central Plains, so they explained a few words for the people from the Western Regions.

Ning Changrong walked to the other party's stall. He found that the goods he sold were all seeds, so he spread them out in small cloth bags and sold them on the ground.

He has never planted land since he was a child, but he doesn't know much about what these seeds grow out of.

"What kind of seeds do you have?"

The man from the Western Regions was very happy when he saw someone patronizing his booth, and hurriedly introduced him to him.

"I have vegetable and fruit seeds here. The one in your hand is a cabbage seed, which is a vegetable from our side. On the left is a grape seed, which is a very sweet fruit."

The people from the Western Regions introduced it for a while, but Ning Changrong's eyes were in a pile of mixed seeds. He reached in and picked up a small seed, "What kind of seed is this?"

The man from the Western Regions waved his hand, "I don't know either. When I came here, I encountered a war and my caravan was destroyed. These are the only things I picked up from the ground. Among the pile of seeds, I I don't know what there is, I grabbed it from the ground when I was anxious..."

After listening to the other party's explanation, Ning Changrong knew that the other party carried all the other seeds with him, and they did not drop on the ground at that time.

The pile of mixed seeds he saw was randomly picked up by people from the Western Regions on the ground, and now the other party doesn't even know what kind of seeds are what.

How could he not recognize his own goods?Ning Changrong suspected that the other party was not a businessman selling seeds. The seeds might be just one of his goods, or the seeds were not his at all.

But he didn't care about this question, "How do you sell this bag of seeds?" Ning Changrong carefully picked through the pile of seeds. Although he didn't know these seeds, he knew one thing, pepper seeds!
The seeds of the pepper are the seeds inside the pepper, how could he not recognize this?

Seeing that Ning Changrong seemed to be interested in the packet of seeds, the man from the Western Regions said tentatively, "If you want it, you can pay two taels of silver."

The street vendors who looked at the two curiously took a deep breath when they heard what the man from the Western Regions said.

Two taels? !How dare this westerner speak!
Ning Changrong was a little dissatisfied, "You don't even know what this kind of seed is, and it's so expensive? I don't know if I can grow it when I take it back. I just want to buy it when I'm bored and see if it will work." If there is any windfall, since you are not sincere, forget it."

After speaking, he seemed to get up and leave.

The man from the Western Regions hurriedly stopped Ning Changrong, "Don't leave! The price can be negotiated!"

Only then did Ning Changrong squat down again, "Then tell me how much you sell it for? If I talk about it again, I will leave."

Although Ning Changrong didn't know how long the other party had been here, but judging by his downcast appearance, he must not be having a good time.

Moreover, the caravan encountered a war, and the loss should be huge. He must be eager to get rid of the seeds in his hand.
