Yin Tang explained a little more, "The eldest brother-in-law of the Yang family has a well-connected family. The father of the Yang family used to take the eldest brother-in-law to many places. Although they were selling goods, they were brave and righteous. I have made a lot of friends, my father-in-law was saved once by the Yang family’s father back then, so my old acquaintances from the Yang family helped me a lot along the way.”

"That's it." Wang Jianzhong nodded, which explained why a scholar could marry his illiterate daughter to a country man.

After Ke Muqing came out from Wang Jianzhong's place, he went to find Mrs. Li San.

The master and servant lived together and were collecting shoes. Seeing Ke Muqing coming, Mrs. Li San put down her work.

Xing'er wisely made an excuse and went out, leaving the two of them talking in the room.

"Madam, sit down quickly." Mrs. Li San wanted to pour tea for Ke Muqing, but as soon as she stood up, she remembered that there was no water in the inn. The teapots in the room were all empty. She and Xing'er both used water bags. When they were thirsty, they Directly with the boiled water in the water bladder.

Looking at Mrs. Li San's expression, Ke Muqing knew what she was ashamed of. "We are all on the road, so we are not so particular. We only drink water from water bladders. Who would use these things?"

Ke Muqing waved his hand and said, "I came here to bring you silver. Your bracelet and jade hairpin are good things. My acquaintance gave me a price of two thousand taels. I thought the price was pretty good, so I pawned it for you. This It’s silver.”

Ke Muqing put the cloth bag containing silver on the table and pushed it over, "I thought that broken silver would be convenient to spend, so I asked for some more broken silver for you and exchanged it for a lot of copper coins. In the future, the world became more and more chaotic, so I didn't ask for any silver." I'm afraid I won't be able to cash it when the time comes."

"Auntie is thoughtful, thank you." Mrs. Li San quickly gave a gift, feeling extremely grateful in her heart, "I thought it would be good to have six hundred taels, but thanks to my acquaintance, I actually gave two thousand taels. The price, if it weren’t for my aunt’s help, I wouldn’t have thought I could exchange it for so much money.”

"Thanks to my aunt for thinking about me and giving me scraps of silver. Now it is indeed better to use copper coins and scraps of silver." Mrs. Li San didn't know how to thank her.

Three or two or five taels of broken silver will not be conspicuous when used, and it will not reveal your wealth. It can save a lot of trouble along the way.

"It's fate that we can travel together. It's just a casual thing for me, so there's no need to be polite." Ke Muqing waved her hand. She didn't do charity either. She also earned 700 taels from both.

It sounds like a huge profit.

This is the deal. Mrs. Li San only said 600 taels, and if she could still give 2000 taels, it would be regarded as a very high price.

In today's world, except for Ke Muqing, who can give such a high price for these two jade ornaments, if he really takes them to a pawn shop to exchange them for seven or eight hundred taels of silver, he will be lucky to meet a kind shopkeeper.

Seeing that Mrs. Li San was about to take out some money from the cloth bag and give it to her, Ke Muqing quickly suppressed Mrs. Li San's hand and said, "You are a heretic if you do this. I will not come to you in the future."

"You must hide the money." Ke Muqing patted Mrs. Li San's hand, "It's getting late, so I'll go back first. You should also rest early. If anything happens, just come to me."

Mrs. Li San stood up to see her off, and Ke Muqing waved at her and went downstairs to the kitchen.

Feng Ying and others were still steaming something here. When they saw Ke Muqing coming down, they called Ke Muqing to try it.

"Your craftsmanship is really good." Ke Muqing couldn't help but praise after eating one. "When you settle in the south in the future, if you have an idea, you can open a pastry shop. With your craftsmanship, you will definitely make money."

"Mom, are you serious?" Feng Ying was overjoyed, "Then I'll make a note of it. When I get to Linzhou, I will definitely ask my mother for this pastry shop."

"Remember it, remember it!" Ke Muqing nodded, "You have a craft that can make a living, and I'm happy for you." Speaking of this, Ke Muqing looked at Zheng Qiushuang and Yang Xiu'e again, "You two are the same, you can do it on the way. Think about what you can do for a living in the future.”

"Then I will learn the craft from my sister-in-law along the way. If my sister-in-law opens a pastry shop, then my husband and I will open a restaurant. If my sister-in-law opens a restaurant, then we will open a pastry shop."

Zheng Qiu Shuang made a good plan, "Anyway, I want to learn from my sister-in-law, but I will never compete with my sister-in-law for a living. Let my sister-in-law make the decision first."

"Look, you are the smart one." Ke Muqing and Feng Ying both laughed. Feng Ying turned around and said to Yang Xiu'e, "When we settle in Linzhou, I will teach you how to make wine, and then Xiu'e, you can open a small wine shop."

"Then it would be best for our three families to open on the same street. The guest will go to one family to have a meal first, and then make a pot of wine to go with it. After eating and drinking, he will buy some pastries to go home to satisfy the children at home. This arrangement is best. But that’s it.” Zheng Qiu Shuang clapped her hands, “Now our family has made all the money of one person!”

Yang Shuangshuang popped up from outside and continued with a smile, "Then if I want to have a toothpaste, I'll go to my fourth aunt, if I want to eat cakes, I'll go to my mother, and then I'll stop by my eldest aunt's house to get a bottle of wine. Give it to daddy."

Yang Jiye, who was making noodles outside, was immediately happy. He suddenly felt that it was good to raise a daughter. She could eat and drink and still remember him as her father. "Then your father will beat you when you are drunk." Zheng Qiushuang said with a smile.

"Grandma is here, who dares to beat me up?" Yang Shuangshuang ran in and hugged Ke Muqing, rubbing her face into Ke Muqing's arms, "Grandma, right?"

"Yes, I'm here, let's see who dares to beat up Grandma's little sweetie." Ke Muqing rubbed Yang Shuangshuang's face, "If you play for a while, you should go back and rest, otherwise you won't be able to get up early tomorrow morning. , then I’ll have to sleep all the way again.”

Yang Shuangshuang said hello and ran out again.

"Mom, please go back and rest. We'll be busy in the kitchen for a while before going back." Feng Ying said.

Ke Muqing thought that he was too lazy to help if he stayed here, so he might as well go back and rest early.

Everyone got up very early the next day. When packing things, Ke Muqing asked Feng Ying to leave some water and food in the small kitchen for the elderly at the inn.

The horse-drawn carriage and the ox-cart were already parked at the entrance of the inn. When Ke Muqing was about to get on the carriage, he saw Chen Nier coming out with her head hanging down.

"Ms. Chen will follow the bullock cart from today on. You can't get on the bullock cart without my permission."

Ke Muqing said, "A servant should behave like a servant. If I indulge you a little, you will do something wrong."

After saying that, Ke Muqing got on the carriage. Chen Nier shed tears and turned back to find Yang Jiye.

Yang Jiye was moving things to the bullock cart with Feng Ying. When he saw Chen Nier coming over in tears, Yang Jiye's first reaction was when Chen Nier said that her mother wouldn't let her ride in the bullock cart and asked her to walk beside the bullock cart and follow.

"How can you walk such a long way? Isn't your mother a good person?" Yang Jiye said, "I'll go talk to my mother."
