Chapter 18 Selling Fish 2
"Brother, let's rest!" Miao Xiaoyan said with a bitter face.

"Okay, then take a rest." Miao Dafu smiled and took a few fish tied with straw ropes from Miao Xiaoyan's shoulders, and hung them on one end of his pole.

Because live fish are easier to sell, Miao Dafu borrowed a bucket from his uncle's house, and brought the fish and water to the town together, and tied up the rest that couldn't fit with straw ropes, and Miao Xiaoyan took it with him.

"Fortunately, Xiaoque and Xiaobao didn't follow!" Miao Xiaoyan rubbed her sore shoulders and twisted her feet.

 Miao Dafu smiled and said: "When we have money, let them go to town in a bullock cart."

"Well, brother, we will have money!" Miao Xiaoyan said confidently.

The two rested for a while and continued on the road. Just when Miao Xiaoyan felt that she was about to suffer from heat stroke, she finally saw the plaque of Wuqiao Town.

"It's finally here!" Miao Xiaoyan couldn't help but think of what her grandpa said. Grandpa once said that the willpower of modern people is far worse than that of ancient people.

Miao Xiaoyan finally understood why the ancients had such strong willpower, it turned out to be exercised by walking.

"Swallow, let's go to the market to see if there is any place for sale." Miao Dafu said, carrying the fish and walking towards the market.

"Brother, is there a bigger restaurant in this town?" Miao Xiaoyan asked after Miao Dafu.

"Restaurant?" Miao Dafu thought for a while and said, "There are two big restaurants."

Miao Dafu was an apprentice in the town, so he is quite familiar with the town.

"Then do they collect the fish?" Miao Xiaoyan asked both.

Miao Dafu paused and said, "I don't know about that, you mean to buy this fish to a restaurant?"

"I have this idea, but I don't know if they will accept it?"

"Shall we try it?"

"Okay, brother, you lead the way."

The two came to a "Ruyi Restaurant". Miao Xiaoyan saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old brother standing in front of the restaurant. He thought he was the waiter of the restaurant, so she stepped forward with a smile on her face and asked sweetly: "Brother , does your restaurant accept fish? My fish is delicious!"

The second elder brother heard Miao Xiaoyan's soft and waxy voice, and saw that she was smart, so he smiled and said: "Little girl, the fish in our restaurant is all bought by the owner's cousin, you still come to Ask elsewhere."

"Well, it's okay, thank you brother." Miao Xiaoyan smiled and thanked the waiter in the restaurant, feeling a little disappointed.

"Swallow, let's go to the opposite side and ask." Miao Dafu said, opposite to this "Ruyi Restaurant" is also a big restaurant called "Plum Restaurant".

"Plum Restaurant?" Miao Xiaoyan looked at the words on the plaque and read.

"Yes, the plum wine in this restaurant is very famous, so it's named 'Plum Wine Restaurant'" Miao Dafu was devoted to selling fish, so he didn't notice that the illiterate second sister could read the words on the restaurant's plaque.

Miao Xiaoyan saw that there was no waiter outside the restaurant to attract customers, so she said to Miao Dafu: "Brother, you wait outside first, I will go in and ask the shopkeeper if he wants to buy our fish."

"Okay, I'll wait for you here."

Miao Xiaoyan walked into the restaurant, looked left and right, saw that it was full of customers, and Xiao Er was too busy to pay attention to herself, so Miao Xiaoyan went directly to the counter.

"Hi, shopkeeper!" Miao Xiaoyan politely said hello to the shopkeeper who was bowing her head to settle accounts.

The shopkeeper, who was over half a century old, looked up and saw a little girl standing in front of the counter, who was a little taller than the counter, and asked with a smile, "Little girl, are you here to find someone?"
