Chapter 50 050: Moving Tea House

The young boss of Shengshi Grain Store accompanied Cai Xiaolan all the way to the city gate.Although the city gates of Yangzhou Mansion are not closed, regardless of pedestrians entering or exiting, relevant procedures must be followed for large quantities of materials to enter and exit the city gates.

After Jing Guangli handed over the sale contract to the city defense officers and soldiers, the officers and soldiers blocking the door let him go.

"Xiao Lan, I wish you a smooth journey." To be honest, he didn't earn much from this business, and only took the four characters of "small profits but quick turnover".

"Jing Shaodong, there is a lot of water in the countryside, be careful of floods. Xiaolan has a suggestion. When you go back to sell grain, you should pay attention to it. Sell according to the quantity, and don't ask one person to buy more." Cai Xiaolan thought about it and decided to give it to him. A little advice from partners.

Jing Guangli climbed up the tower and looked at the vast surrounding fields.The rain stopped early in the morning, and it was no longer as vast as before, and the view was excellent.The sky does take on the appearance of rippling water.

"This..." He thought about the possibility of the flood that Cai Xiaolan mentioned.And a wave of officials riding horses under the city gate caught his attention.

"It seems that what Xiaolan said makes some sense!" Among the crowd of people, he knew one person. If he remembered correctly, his father once invited this person to dinner.

"What official position does he hold?" Jing Guangli recalled carefully, and a memory emerged, "By the way, he is the manager of the engineering department."

It's okay, Jing Guangli quickly ordered his assistant to go to all the stores in the family, and told the shopkeeper to sell less food.And he ran home to find his father.

……

"Xiao Lan, you are not allowed to talk to other men in the future. Look at the way the man at the grain shop looked at you just now." Cui Boyan said very angrily.

"I didn't get along with him again? What's the matter, are you jealous?" Cai Xiaolan smiled strangely, "Who said you looked down on me before? Who was the country girl?"

"Humph, I won't allow it if I say no!"

"It's impossible. How can you do business without contacting people? You have to emancipate your mind. Men and women are equal. Why can't there be women in social interaction?" Cai Xiaolan began to popularize the value of equality between men and women with Cui Boyan.

"Don't quibble, I won't do it if I say no. If you keep doing this, someone will gossip about you." Cui Boyan turned his head for a long time and came out.

"Okay, I will take you with me wherever I go from now on!" Cai Xiaolan helplessly spread her hands.

About half a foot below the bright water, there is a dirt road, which is muddy by people and animals at the moment.

The convoy finally turned from the official road to the village road.The guy didn't have time to be happy, but the horse's leg at the head of the line was half-submerged by the water.

The horse was frightened, he calmed down, and immediately called to stop the convoy.

"My lord, we can't go any further. The draft car is running out of water. Once the food gets wet, it won't be able to hold it." The man ran to Cui Boyan.

Cui Boyan ran to the front to test the water, and the water line rose to his knees. "Xiao Lan, the water is too deep, why don't we put it in Tianfu Jucai Residence?"

"There are so many people coming and going in the teahouse, wouldn't it be unsafe?" Cai Xiaolan underestimated it for a long time, and finally agreed to Cui Boyan's method.

The two commanded the buddies to park the car in a place where there was water all over the official road.But there was none in the teahouse.It's all because when the house was built, Cai Xiaolan specially raised the foundation so that people could see it from a long distance.

"Pile it in the house!" Cai Xiaolan yelled, the men of Ma Xing were added to the unloading work for no reason, and they were not annoyed, and they all helped carry the grain.

While moving, one of the guys screamed.Everyone followed his gaze and saw Cai Xiaolan carrying five bags of corn alone.

"It's so powerful!" The boy exclaimed.At the same time, I mourned for Cui Boyan for three moments in silence.There is a powerful wife who has cultivated the blessings of eight lifetimes.

A small episode, passed quickly.

When the food was about to be moved, Cai Xiaolan went to the kitchen to get busy.Warmed yesterday's stewed meat and boiled some boiling water.

By the time she cut the braised pork and brought it to the lobby, the guys had just finished their work.

"Everyone has worked hard, I have meat here, everyone will share a share." Said to share a share, but Cai Xiaolan has already divided it.One plate per person, one bowl of barley tea per person.On the side of the tea bowl, there are still thirty coins.

Seeing a dozen young strong men standing or squatting together, eating meat and drinking tea, Cai Xiaolan said she regretted it, wishing she could make wine.

Good wine can go well with meat.

Send the boy away, it's past noon.There are more than 2 catties of grain in the house, and they dare not leave people anymore.Cai Xiaolan was left to watch the gate, while Cui Boyan and Wang Pu waded through the knee-deep water and returned to Liujiazhuang, only to find that the water had risen too much compared to last night.

Except for a few houses with higher homesteads, other houses are soaked in water.When Cui Boyan returned home, he saw that his yard was also flooded.But there was no water in the house, and there was a high layer of soil in front and back of the main house to block the water.

"Bo Yan, where's Xiaolan?" Cui Lushi didn't see Cai Xiaolan, and panicked.

"Mother, there is too much water in the village, and the food can't get in. It's put in the teahouse. Xiaolan asked me to call you to come with me. The terrain over there is high, and it's still much higher than the waterline." Cui Boyan wades in At the door of the house, I sat down on a low stool.

"Hey, why is the donkey at home?"

Cui Lushi was discussing with Xu Yinlian just now, how to increase the height of the concrete block.Now hearing that the teahouse has not been flooded, I immediately thought of changing the place, "It's great that it's not flooded over there, let's move now."

"Tianfu Jucai is a good place to live. The houses over there are all wooden structures. Even if they are flooded, they are not afraid of falling down. Just now, I saw that there are several places in the house that are full of water seepage." Xu Yinlian also agreed to move.

Several people picked out some important things, including quilts and clothes, some pots and pans, and vegetables harvested from the vegetable garden. Finally, Cui Lu mysteriously carried a bamboo basket covered with a piece of blue cloth.

Cui Boyan was packing pens, inks, papers and inkstones when he saw that Cui Lu's hands were struggling, "Aniang, what's in the basket? Let me carry it later."

"Keep your voice down, don't worry about it."

Cui Boyan guessed from Cui's mother's mysterious look that the money in the basket must be the family's money.Thinking of this, he quickly found the place where he hid his private money in a pile of articles, and wrapped the money earned from endorsements, chickens, and fishes around his waist.

Cui Dongping saw his brother's actions and thought of his money, so he sneaked back into the house.

Xu Yinlian, mother and son looked at the family's treacherous actions and couldn't laugh or cry.

Five people, one donkey and one cart, ran outside.On the alleys of Liujiazhuang, not only their family, but also several groups left home to join relatives.

The emperor also has three poor relatives.

Cai Xiaolan was not idle in the teahouse by herself, she arranged the low stools side by side and put the tables together.Since we are going to wait for the flood to recede here, we need to find a place to sleep first.

"Ting Yuxuan, I will sleep with Xiaolan, and let Sister Xu and Auntie sleep in the other room. As for Cui Boyan, let him sleep outside alone." When Cui Boyan was mentioned, Cai Xiaolan remembered that today in Shengshi When Cui Boyan was walking in the grain store, he looked at her weird eyes and couldn't help but said angrily: "He deserves to sleep outside alone."

 Finally updated to Chapter 50.
