Chapter 19
Whether it was Aunt Hong or Shopkeeper Qi, Jiang Shan learned a truth from them.

You have to walk your own path, and steer your own future.

Aunt Hong was a ray of sunshine she met in the cold predicament, giving her warmth and light, but she couldn't save her.

Shopkeeper Qi is a profit-seeking businessman. The idea of ​​the ancient patriarchal society is deeply rooted. He looks down on her and can abandon her at any time in the face of interests.

The only thing she can rely on is herself.

She raised her eyes to the boundless distance, squinted her eyes slightly and fixed her gaze on a strange area.

Guxian Town is too small, both resources and opportunities are extremely limited, she has to take another step forward.

Jiangshan has spent a lot of money these days. Since ancient times, medical treatment and health care have been the most expensive things, and there are no exceptions in all dynasties.

Now she urgently needs a sum of money, first to buy a mule cart, and then go to the town to buy a shop.The best shop is one that can open for business and have a backyard for their family to live in.

Now, she doesn't need to spend too much effort to fish the seafood. The Qiao family and his son can do it very well. She only needs to prepare the seasoning, distribute it according to the proportion, and finally check the finished product. If there is no problem, it will be loaded and shipped.

With some free time, she started working on some snacks.

Seafood is a good thing, and seafood in seafood sauce is just one of them, and it is not suitable for everyone. She will continue to improve it, such as barbecue and skewers, which are popular in modern times.

People in Huaigu Village can now see mule carts pulling cart after cart of fresh seafood from the Jiao family's yard every day, and the money they pay is whole ingots of silver ingots.

Especially after the little seafood they made could not be sold, the hatred value reached its peak.

Jiangshan's barbecue and skewers can't be sent directly to the restaurant for sale, they will be beaten by the shopkeeper.

There is a college in the town, and almost all the students with status and background in Guxian Town study there. The location is very good, and the outside is very lively, but the yard is also large, and there is silence in the noise.

On a sunny afternoon, a strong fragrance suddenly came from this alley, causing countless students to stretch their necks and swallow hard.

The big one can still control himself, but the small one can't sit still and keeps moving his butt*, not knowing what he has learned.

Furious, the master left school early and came out first to find out.

Not far from the school, a young girl and a child were standing in the alley on two thin slabs of stone, with a layer of charcoal on the bottom, and a few strings of unknown ingredients on it. It was smoking.

The fragrance was floating along the smoke, and it was so fragrant that it made people drool.

When I got closer, I realized that what was grilled on the slate were all kinds of sea fish, shrimps, and seafood such as snails and shellfish.

A little fat man rushed over like a cannonball, pointing at a string of prawns and shouting: "What is this? What are these? Can you eat it? How much is it?"

Jiao Sanlang stood up immediately and said in a soft voice: "This is grilled prawns, this is grilled squid, this is grilled conger eel, and these are conch shells. The meat of these two is delicious, and the more you chew, the more delicious they are. It’s a string for a penny, and there’s still a lot in the pot, which can be baked after eating.”

"I want this, this, and these two, I want one! No, I want two!" The little fat man stretched out his hands and said impatiently.

Sanlang took out a few sheets of oil paper that had been prepared, folded them into two square boxes, arranged the skewers neatly, and handed them to the little fat man: "It's ten coins in total, thank you!"

The little fat man took the skewers, and with a wave of his hand, a servant immediately handed over the copper coins.

Not to be outdone, several children who were traveling with them clamored for the exact same skewers as the little fat man.

Barbecue must be freshly baked to be delicious. The two stone slabs on the shelf are too small to hold too many things.Seeing more and more children, Jiang Shan winked at Saburo and pouted.

Sanlang stepped forward, held his fists in his hands and gave a dignified salute, and said, "Little brother, these skewers must be cooked before eating, otherwise they will spoil your stomach. If you eat a bad stomach, you won't be able to go to school. I guess the family will eat it." The elders will not dare to let you eat more in the future! Please wait for the little brothers to line up first, and wait for the sister to bake it before I give you a taste, okay? Don’t worry, there are still more skewers, look!"

Jiang Shan watched with a smile as Sanlang showed them the seafood skewers skewered in the basin like a little adult, and led a few screaming children to line up, nodding in his heart in applause.

This kid is so cute!He is studious and smart, no matter what he teaches, he can learn it immediately, and he is very sensible and considerate, and he will be a warm boy when he grows up.

Children like to compare, and Saburo, who is about the same age, is like a mirror in front of them, which can clearly let them realize the difference between themselves and Saburo.

Sanlang shuttled through the team, chatted with this one, and comforted that one. After a while, he has become the most popular cub in this alley.

The master stood by and watched, from initial annoyance to calmness, to appreciation, and finally stroking his beard and nodding.

It's rare that this group of lawless little overlords are subdued by a child. It's so rare.

When fresh seafood is grilled, it is easy to taste, and it is cooked quickly. After a short time, several children got their favorite skewers.

Under Jiang Shan's instruction, Saburo walked up to his master with a bunch of grilled conger eels and a bunch of prawns, bent down and saluted, and said in a crisp voice: "Mr. , please forgive me, old gentleman. This is a little bit of kindness from the kid, please give old gentleman a taste of it."

The master looked down at the little baby, his big clear eyes were full of seriousness, neither humble nor timid.

The master took the skewers and smelled them, and took a bite of the scorched conger eel regardless of the image.

Seeing that the task was completed, Saburo clasped his fists and saluted again, then turned around and wanted to leave.

But the master stopped him, and asked, "Where does Xiaowaer live? Can she read?"

Sanlang scratched his head, turned to look at his sister, and said: "The boy is from Huaigu Village, he has never been to school, only my sister taught me to read a few words."

The master didn't speak, just concentrated on the skewers.

But Saburo was not in a hurry to leave, he stood quietly and waited for his master's next words.

After eating the skewers, the master took out the handkerchief and wiped his mouth and hands, pointed to Jiangshan, and said: "My surname is Wu, go back and ask your sister, if you are willing to send you to my Qingfeng Academy."

Saburo bowed again calmly, turned around and returned to Jiangshan.

Jiang Shan listened to what the master said word for word.

She never dreamed that this plan would give San Lang such a big advantage!
