Chapter 735 Beautiful Fen City 4
"I've eaten it before!" Lu Banxia was a little smug, and raised her head proudly, "It's sweet, crunchy, and delicious!"

"Boss, how do you sell this fruit?" Lu Ziwan rubbed the tip of her nose and asked.

"All of them cost twenty Wen each."

"What? Twenty cents?" Lu Ziwan was startled, she thought she would hear a wild asking price, but in the end, twenty cents came out.

Twenty Wen is a lot for ordinary people, but the price for this kind of fruit that is not domestically produced is indeed a bit cheap. If compared with the ones bought by the Bai family, it is even cheaper.

"Ma'am, your younger brother also said just now that you have eaten this fruit before, and you also know that our fruits are all from our hometown. It takes a lot of effort to transport them, which is naturally better than the ones from Fencheng here. The fruit is going to be more expensive." The boss thought that Lu Ziwan thought the price was expensive and quickly explained, "Hey, although the weather is good this year, the fruit grows well, but if the tax was not raised by [-]% this year, the fruit would be If it rots on the tree, we can only go so far to sell it."

"It's so good, why did the tax increase? Is it the landlord's tax or the whole country?" Lu Ziwan was puzzled.

"The land is our own. We are a small country attached to this place. It is the lord who asked the whole country to increase taxes. This increase is [-]% more than the original one. It used to be barely enough to make ends meet. Now this increase, we If there are still fruits left to rot on the tree, we poor people won’t be able to survive.” The boss pondered for a moment, looked around, turned his eyes sensitively, then moved closer to them, and whispered , "As for why the tax is increased, it's not that the country wants money to buy weapons and horses. It's time to fight!"

"Scared~"

Lu Ziwan gasped, "War? Okay, what kind of war? Could it be that other countries invaded your country? Or is someone in your country planning to rebel?"

"I just heard rumors that a war is going to happen. The king has already recruited troops everywhere. As for where we will fight, we don't know. By the way, do you want this fruit?" The boss shook his head. people."

"Yes, you can give me two baskets. There is an ice cellar at home. It won't spoil easily if you store them in it. You can eat slowly." Lu Ziwan nodded.

When the boss heard that Lu Ziwan wanted so much, don't mention how happy he was, he sorted out the fruits and said, "If I meet a few more cheerful guests like you, madam, I can go home earlier to meet my children and daughter-in-law. .”

"Then I wish you good luck, and I wish you to go home early." Lu Ziwan asked Lian Guanlang to help. The baskets were not big, so Lian Guanlang carried one, and she and the two sisters carried the other one back.

"Sister, let's come together!" Lu Banxia and Lu He surrounded several people excitedly, their tender little hands had no strength, and they moved along excitedly.

"From now on, I can eat fruit every day. It's great! Cousin, I really like Fencheng, but I don't like Nanwang Town at all!" Lu He laughed.

"That's good, if I marry you here, you will become the daughter-in-law here, and you can live here." Qing Dai teased.

"I don't want to! I want to follow my parents. Besides, if you want to get married, you must marry Sister Qingdai first, or you will marry Sister Qingdai here. When the weather gets hot, we will come here to play with you!" Lu He shook his head like a wave drum, pouted.

"This girl really knows how to plan." Lu Ziwan smiled with the corners of her lips curled up.

Because they were holding fruit in their hands, they went back directly. Anyway, the street is there, and they can go out for a stroll whenever they want.

The three adults were taken aback seeing how many people bought so many fruits as soon as they went out. He Chunmei helplessly scolded them for making them plan to spend money every day. Now they have to spend money everywhere when they go out. Forget it, Lu Ziwan responded casually and asked Da Zhuang to help move the things in.

"Brother Guan Lang, did you hear what the fruit seller said just now? Their lord has started to recruit troops and buy horses to fight. You said, they are a small country attached to our country, and they pay tribute to our emperor every year. If there are other countries If they are about to invade them, won't the emperor help them?"
