The fierce wife of space

Chapter 109 Investigate the news
Seeing that Gu Lian seemed to want to buy fragrant rice, the shopkeeper of the rice shop, he naturally exhausted all his means to explain the fragrant rice to the heavens and the earth, especially highlighting that this is the fragrant rice eaten by the saints. It was also rewarded to the concubines in the harem. It is said that the empresses in the harem also use this kind of fragrant rice.

"I've heard people say that this fragrant rice can still beautify the skin! But I haven't tried it myself. After all, at our age, no matter how effective it is, I guess it won't show it. But the lady is quite young, so she said Maybe there will be such an effect." The shopkeeper of the rice shop laughed at himself for his dried orange face, even if he ate fragrant rice every day, he couldn't smooth out the wrinkles on his face. "As for the price, this fragrant rice costs twenty Wen a catty, but this ordinary rice costs ten Wen a catty."

"The shopkeeper is really good at talking, but this rice can make people beautiful after eating. This is the first time I've heard it said, but it's good if the sage eats it and praises it." Gu Lian thinks that the shopkeeper of this rice shop is very good. They really know how to do business. People nowadays really like to follow the saints. Some jewelry shops here love to say that these styles are all loved by the noble girls in the capital. The girls here only listen to this. As soon as he said it, he thought about it.

In the end, Gu Lian only bought two catties of fragrant rice. It wasn't that she didn't want to buy more, but it was too expensive. Ordinary rice bought twenty catties. Now that she was making money, she naturally wanted to eat better and eat some every day. She is also a little tired of steamed buns and corn cakes.

Gu Zhu's heart ached, he always felt that the cornbread was more effective against hunger, but this fragrant rice cost twenty cents a catty, it was nothing but robbery, and it was a blatant robbery.

"Shopkeeper, don't people here grow this fragrant rice? They have to get it from other places. If people here can grow fragrant rice, then this fragrant rice won't be so expensive." Gu Lian It seemed that he was particularly interested in this fragrant rice, but he chatted with the shopkeeper of the rice shop.

Since the business of fragrant rice was completed, the shopkeeper was also happy, and he talked a lot about it. After hearing Gu Lian's question, he didn't hesitate to tell her the reason.

"It's just because the people here don't know how to grow it. Besides, the climate of this fragrant rice is different from ours. If we grow it here, the harvest will be extremely bad, and it will take a lot of effort. In fact, this fragrant rice is not as good as it is here. It's too expensive, the most expensive one is green rice, but I heard that only the nobles are willing to spend money to eat it, we ordinary people, where have you seen it!"

"There must be somewhere that sells the seeds of this green rice! Although this green rice is rare, if many people can grow it, the sage will be very happy." Gu Lian smiled with eyes crooked. The seeds of this fragrant rice In fact, there are rice shops, but this fragrant rice is difficult to grow, so the people here will not buy these seeds.

The shopkeeper of the rice shop stroked his shiny beard, shook his head and replied: "Young lady is absolutely right, there are naturally seeds of this green rice, but they can only be bought in the capital." , Where can we find it in this small place?"

After getting the news she wanted, Gu Lian didn't stay here any longer. She put the rice on the ox cart and went into the preserved fruit shop to buy some snacks. The total cost was a few hundred cash. Today Almost all the money she earned was spent, but seeing the ox cart full of things, Gu Lian felt that the money was spent very happily.

"You, you can't save money between your fingers, why do you spend so much money on things, your parents will definitely tell you when you get home." Although Gu Zhu was happy in his heart, he was still a little worried, and returned home Will they be scolded by their parents for not being in charge of the family?

"Don't worry, parents won't say anything! As long as the money is spent on the real thing, the money is considered worthwhile. We don't use the money to waste money. We eat what we buy and eat it in our stomachs. Besides, Sister, don’t you want to eat dry rice? My stomach, I stuff it with tortillas every day, it always feels like my belly turns yellow!” Gu Lian leaned on her sister’s shoulder, and coquettishly shook her hand, The pouty lips are very cute.

Hearing what the second sister said, Gu Shu secretly lifted up his clothes and looked at his belly. Fortunately, there was no discoloration on the belly. What the second sister said was too scary. Will eating cornbread every day turn yellow?If I eat rice every day, will my belly become particularly white?

All the things are bought, Gu Lian and the others did not stay in the city, and all the vegetables brought by the big head are also bought. Now he is happy to help the master with things, at least all the things he brings every day can be sold Guang, the big-headed lady feels happy when she looks at the big head. Although this youngest son is the most naive, at least he has a good teacher now.

"We're going to save some grilled loach for tomorrow. I want to go to the restaurant here to have a look tomorrow." Gu Lian made up her mind, and tomorrow she will see if she can cooperate with the people in the restaurant.

This grilled loach is the most delicious paired with wine. A plate of grilled loach and a glass of wine, a drink and a meal, is a match made in heaven. If the shopkeeper of the restaurant really knows how to do business, it should be easy to see that the business is doing well .As long as it can be supplied to the restaurant at that time, then she doesn't need to set up a stall in the city every day.

"By the way, sister, are the hot and sour bamboo shoots we brought sold out?" Today, I focused all my attention on Smelly Old Five's stall, but I didn't notice the business of the sour bamboo shoots.

"Oh, look at my memory, I actually forgot it, no wonder I always feel like I'm missing something." Gu Zhu patted himself on the head, feeling that his memory was getting worse and worse, why would he sell it? I also forgot about my things, and now I have to take this jar back.

Gu Lian looked at the hot and sour bamboo shoots nestled quietly on the corner of the ox cart, but she didn't say anything. She thought of Li Rongtai, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth involuntarily.

"Since that's the case, let's give away this jar today! You wait here for me, and I'll come as soon as I go." Gu Lian jumped off the bullock cart, took the jar and ran forward. I have to wait outside the city for the two sisters to go back together!

"Hey, Alian..." Gu Zhu watched his sister fly away like a bird, and sighed involuntarily. No wonder her sister wanted to give this jar of hot and sour bamboo shoots to Mr. Li.

As long as he thinks of Mr. Li eating hot and sour bamboo shoots with chopsticks, Gu Zhu feels a little afraid to look at it. He always feels that Mr. Li will not eat such things.

Taking Li Rongtai's brand this time did not make things difficult for him. The servant who watched the gate was warned by Li Rongtai last time, how could he dare to make his own decision not to let people in.

"Young lady, please come with me." In order to give the young master a good impression, the doorman brought Gu Lian into Li's house respectfully.
