The reason why Yang Haiyan and Qin Fang chose to go today instead of yesterday is because today Lu Dawei is taking a break from his private school. When they arrived, Lv Dawei and Lv Xiaowei were playing in the yard. When they saw Yang Haiyan coming, Lv Dawei shouted happily, "Auntie, you're here." The Lu brothers liked Yang Haiyan very much, because the dim sum made by this aunt was delicious. , and gave them goat milk to drink. Although it was before the move, they all remembered it.

Sister-in-law Lu also came out when she heard the voice: "I was planning to go there to find you. There will be a market in the town tomorrow, and I am thinking that you must join in the fun."

Yang Haiyan said: "No, definitely go." Then he introduced Qin Shoucheng and Qin Siya, and said to Lu Dawei, "Dawei, this is my aunt's younger brother, and I will go to the private school where you are studying in the future. He just went to school. , I am not familiar with the private school, and I would like to ask you to take care of him."

Eight-year-old Lu Dawei patted his chest and assured: "Auntie, don't worry, I will take care of Uncle Shoucheng."

Shoucheng who was called uncle...

Yang Haiyan was stunned when she heard the title, and then she couldn't help laughing. It's not called uncle, you must know that Shoucheng is Qin Fang's younger brother, and he is the same generation as Lu Baifu.

After saying hello to Lu Dawei, Yang Haiyan's family went shopping. It should be said that Qin Fang took Qin Shoucheng to a private school to report, and Yang Haiyan took Qin Siya to go shopping.

There was nothing to do in the town, so Yang Haiyan took Si Ya to the dim sum shop. Aunt Hong was the only one in the dim sum shop, and she looked at the shop while watching the child. Her son is one year old and has been drinking goat milk for more than half a year. The little baby has a good body, a head and a head, and is very cute.

Seeing Yang Haiyan coming with Qin Siya, Aunt Hong hurriedly greeted her: "My wife is here, and Miss Siya is here too."

Yang Haiyan: "How's the business in the shop?"

Aunt Hong said, "Every day's ration can be sold out."

Yang Haiyan nodded: "That's good." Anyway, her dim sum is rationed and sold out every day, after a month, the gross profit will be 10 taels of silver.

Qin Siya asked curiously, "sister-in-law, is this your shop?"

Yang Haiyan said: "Yes, are you tired? You can sit on the stool over there to rest." The stool was originally provided for guests who drink goat milk, but now the shop does not supply goat milk, so this stool It doesn't come in handy. After thinking about it, Yang Haiyan decided to change the place to a vegetable area after waiting for the harvest of vegetables in the field, and put vegetables, eggs, duck eggs, etc.

Qin Siya sat on the stool and looked around curiously. Speaking of which, when he was in his hometown, he had to cut pig grass to feed the chickens. He didn't have to do anything here, but he was not used to it.

After a while, Qin Fang came to the shop: "I have signed up, I can go to school tomorrow."

Going to a private school is different from a special apprenticeship. Special apprenticeship requires apprenticeship rituals, but going to this private school is different, just like a school admits several students. Qin Shoucheng's kind is not apprenticeship, but is equivalent to looking for a school to study. , so there is no need to prepare any apprenticeship ceremony.

Yang Haiyan: "That's good, go and prepare some things you need to study."

Then, the family went to the study. Yang Haiyan bought all the things needed for studying, such as pen, ink and paper, for Qin Shoucheng. Speaking of which, Qin Shoucheng has been studying for a year, but he has not really touched pen, ink and paper. He was taught by Tong Sheng in his hometown before, and he also had the idea of ​​letting him know a few words at home. He really studied, so he didn't prepare for these.

And now, Yang Haiyan has all these for him, and his heart is very touched. Holding the pen, he couldn't put it down, and even choked up with the words of thanks: "Thank you sister-in-law, thank you brother, I will study hard."

Yang Haiyan patted him on the shoulder: "I believe you can do it, come on."

Qin Shoucheng: "Well."

After shopping, the family will go back. Just after returning home, Nanny Lian came: "Madam, just now the Kunshi family came to find you."

Yang Haiyan was puzzled: "From the Kunshi family? What's the matter?"

Mother Lian nodded and said, "I said, I plan to sell dim sum to the county seat."

Yang Haiyan was stunned for a moment, then chuckled: "She is so smart, this should be told by Kun Shi. Before, Sister Dahua approved dim sum in the shop to sell, and the business is good." Earn one or two taels every month There should be money, but Yang Haiyan doesn't know exactly, because she doesn't know how Yang Dahua sells dim sum in the county seat. But even if you make money, it is hard work. Get up early every morning to go to the county seat, and then come back.

Madam Lian was curious: "Then do you want to give her some snacks?"

Yang Haiyan asked back, "Why not?"

Mother Lian: "Where's Mrs. Han?"

Yang Haiyan chuckled: "Sister Dahua approves the dim sum to be sold in the county, and I make money. No matter where the Kun Shi family comes to sell the dim sum, I also make money. How can this person make money?"

Madam Lian asked, "What if the Kunshi family stole Mrs. Han's business?"

Yang Haiyan shook her head: "This question shouldn't be asked by the mammy."

Madam Lian smiled and said, "This old slave is just curious." Because she usually sees her taking good care of Madam Han.

Yang Haiyan didn't care, anyway, it was just gossip: "I have a good relationship with Sister Dahua, but it has nothing to do with me doing business with others. First of all, Sister Dahua is pregnant now, and this business has been taken over by others. No. Secondly, Sister Dahua is not pregnant. Others can do this business. The county is so big, and two people can do this business, and no one can hinder anyone. It's none of my business, it should be something they discuss and discuss with each other. After all, whoever grants things to others should be responsible for dealing with other people's business, or will they be robbed?" This is not Brand agency or buyout.

Of course, she wouldn't agree with anyone who critiqued her desserts. If she changed someone she didn't know, she would naturally consider it.

Madam Lian felt that she still couldn't see through the master, but it didn't matter if she couldn't, as long as she was loyal and served the master well.

Yang Haiyan: "Okay, mama, go and call the Kunshi family."

Sister Lian: "Yes."

After a while, Kun Zhang came.

Mrs. Kun Zhang: "The women have seen their wives."

Yang Haiyan said very kindly: "Don't be too polite, sit down."

Mrs. Kun Zhang: "Mrs. Xie." She has a calm personality. She came from Jintian County with Yang Haiyan all the way, and she can be considered to know Yang Haiyan. The wife is a person with a good personality and a more generous person. However, she did not want to be presumptuous or test the bottom line of the other party because of this, she saw her position very clearly.

Yang Haiyan said, "Mother Lian, just now, told me, do you want to approve dim sum to buy and sell?"

Mrs Kun Zhang said nervously, "Yes, I wonder if my wife will allow me some snacks?"

Yang Haiyan said: "I have two conditions for approving dim sum here. First, you are not allowed to buy or sell dim sum in the town. The town is so big. If you do business in the town, you will rob my shop. guest."

Mrs. Kunzhang heard Kunshi say that Mrs. Han used to do business in the county town. She thought that it was probably because of this reason. Mrs Kun Zhang nodded and said, "Don't worry, madam, you won't do business in the town."

Yang Haiyan snorted: "The second condition, once my dim sum is approved, it is not allowed to be returned, regardless of whether you sell it or not. After all, no one can guarantee that it will be clean after returning it. It's not for this reason, and no shop would do such a business."

Kunzhang said: "Yes, this woman understands." It is also common sense. If it is himself, he is not allowed to return the approved snacks.

Yang Haiyan nodded and told her the price later: "Then how much do you want to approve? When do you want it?"

Kunzhang said: "Madam, can I ask how much Mrs. Han approved when she first started? I also want to go to the county to do business, but I don't know the situation there, so I want to know how Mrs. Han did business in the first place. condition."

Yang Haiyan did not refuse, but said cheerfully: "The first time the small cakes and the small biscuits are two kilograms each, but I don't know about it later. Later, Aunt Fan is in charge of her approving dim sum. If you want to approve dim sum, you must go to the same Aunt Fan said, because the dim sum is made by Aunt Fan and Aunt Hong."

Kunzhang said gratefully, "Thank you, Mrs. for reminding me."

Yang Haiyan smiled: "You don't need to be so polite, Captain Kun is my husband's subordinate, and it is considered a family. You are all doing well, and you are living well, so I am happy. By the way, the previous Mrs. Han also approved snacks. If you go to the county to do business, if you are going to do business in the county, it is best to discuss the price with her, otherwise your prices will be different, and I am afraid that it will attract comparisons, but it will not be beautiful."

Kunzhang Shi didn't think for a while, she thought it would be fine if the two were not in the same place to do business. Now Yang Haiyan, who was losing money, reminded her that she stood up and saluted: "Thank you, Mrs. for reminding me."

Yang Haiyan said: "Don't be too polite, Mrs. Han lives in fifty-six households in Baifu District. You can ask her about the situation in the county seat."

Kun Zhang: "Hey."

Yang Haiyan remembered something: "By the way, what arrangements do you have for Daying?"

Kun Zhang was stunned for a moment: "I also ask my wife to give pointers."

Yang Haiyan said: "The guidance is not very good. Our family's Cheng brother will enter a private school from tomorrow. He will go to a private school in the morning and go home in the afternoon to practice martial arts. I think, he is still young, even if he does not go to the literary school. Or martial arts, it’s always good to learn more. If the big eagle is all right, when the elder brother learns martial arts and strengthens his body, the big eagle can also be with him.”

Kunzhang's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Thank you, Mrs."

Yang Haiyan: "You're welcome, if you have nothing to do, go ahead and do it."

Kun Zhang: "Yes." She walked out of the door and suddenly came in again, "Excuse me, madam, if I go to a private school, how much money do I have to pay?"

Yang Haiyan's eyes flashed admiration: "Two taels of silver a year, everything you need for your studies is self-provided, because it is not a teacher, so there is no need for a teacher ceremony. The private school recruits students every year, and this year has just started, so It’s still too late to enroll, and if it takes a while, it will be next year.”

Upon hearing this, Mrs Kun Zhang said, "Thank you, Mrs."

Kun Zhang returned to the servant's yard and saw her husband and son playing. Seeing her coming back, Kun Shi also asked worriedly, "How is it?"

Kunzhang said: "Speak inside." After all, everyone's courtyards are connected. What if they were heard outside? Although she can approve dim sum to go to the county town for business, others can also approve dim sum to go to the county town for business. However, she couldn't be in a hurry to tell others.

Kun Shi nodded: "Yes."

When the couple entered the house, Mrs. Kunzhang talked about these things, apart from the snacks, there was also the matter of letting his son study: "How do you think? The wife said that the repair of the bundle is 22 taels a year, I think Come on, let's get up, let the big eagle go."

Kun Shi naturally hoped that his son would be successful, he said: "Okay, let Da Ying and Brother Cheng go to the private school together in the morning, and let them practice martial arts together in the afternoon. Brother Cheng is the elder's direct younger brother, and Da Ying works with him. It is also good to have a playmate. If the big eagle is promising in studying, I will continue to support it. If not, learn martial arts well, and in the future, when the adult has a brother, it is also good for the big eagle to be the guardian of the brother. "

Qin Fang didn't know that Kun Shi had already thought about it so late that he also thought about his son.

Kun Zhang said with a smile: "You have arranged for your son's future."

Kun Shi said: "You are only twenty-one years old, and you are already a seventh-rank commander. In our military camp, there is no such young commander. Your future has a long way to go. When I follow you, I will naturally think about my son. want."

Kun Zhang always listened to her husband, so she naturally listened to him.

main courtyard

During the meal, Qin Siya couldn't help but ask: "Sister-in-law, the third brother is going to study in a private school tomorrow, what about me?" She remembered that if she remembered ten words, she would be rewarded.

Yang Haiyan took the scrambled egg with chopsticks and just ate it in her mouth when she heard what she said, she swallowed the egg and said, "You will also start from tomorrow, read the book for half an hour every morning, and learn arithmetic for half an hour, Study for another half an hour in the afternoon, and the rest of the time is yours." Girls don't need imperial examinations, and they don't need high school entrance examinations, college entrance examinations, etc. like modern girls. For Qin Siya, studying is just literacy and increasing his knowledge , I understand more truths, so half an hour a day is enough to read a book, which is equal to an hour.

Qin Siya: "Then if I memorize all ten words, is there still a penny reward?"

When Qin Fang heard this, he couldn't help frowning: "Your sister-in-law will give you money for teaching you to study?" Why does this girl think so beautifully?

Qin Siya was a little afraid of her eldest brother. Seeing her eldest brother say this with a cold face, she shrank her neck.

Yang Haiyan said: "I promised Si Ya, I will give you a penny reward for memorizing ten words every day." She didn't teach much every day, so she taught her ten words and took it slow.

Qin Fang looked at it and felt uncomfortable. When he was studying, why was there no reward? In the past, his daughter-in-law cared about him the most and said she liked him the most, but now it seems that Shoucheng and Si Ya are more important than him. Qin Fang felt that bringing his younger siblings was a wrong choice.

Yang Haiyan didn't know that her man was thinking blindly. Seeing him frowning and contemplating, and stunned Si Ya, she took a piece of meat for him with the chopsticks: "The braised pork has enough sugar, you don't like sweets. Is it?"

The common people do not like to eat sweets, because the family is poor and there are very few opportunities to eat sugar, so they like it. Qin Fang is naturally the same.

Seeing that his daughter-in-law gave him meat, Qin Fang didn't know what to think, so he opened his mouth like this.

Yang Haiyan: "..." The problem. After thinking about it, forget it, he is only 21 years old, and he is still a big boy. Her sister, who was running three times, didn't care about him, and put the meat to his mouth, "Don't bite your chopsticks."

Qin Fang: "Well."

After lunch, Yang Haiyan stopped Qin Siya and went to the study: "Si Ya, this is the "Hundred Family Surnames" that your elder brother read when he was studying. From tomorrow, you will first recognize the characters in this book, and now I will give it to you. "

Qin Siya was about to pick up the book when Qin Fang, who entered the door, quickly caught it.

Yang Haiyan was surprised: "Didn't you go to take a nap?"

Qin Fang put the book back in its original position, and said solemnly: "She wants to study and buy another one for her. This is the book you bought for me, and you can't give it to her." He was defensive at the loss. When he was eating, he heard that this girl was going to study, and he didn't see her in the study in the morning to buy books for her, so he guessed what happened. How does this work? Must not.

Yang Haiyan was speechless, but she still took out the money to Qin Shoucheng: "Shoucheng, you and Si Ya go to the study and buy Si Ya a book."

Qin Shoucheng: "Yes."

Taking the two brothers and sisters out, Yang Haiyan gave Qin Fang a blank look: "If you want to grab a book, that's your sister."

Qin Fang said, "That's the book you gave me. How can something you give to someone else change hands and give it to someone else?"

Yang Haiyan found that she couldn't refute it.

Qin Fang was very satisfied: "I went to take a nap."

Yang Haiyan had nothing to do, and went to take a nap with her. Maybe it was spring sleepiness, and she felt a little tired.

"Madam..." She was about to take a nap when Aunt Fan came, "Madam, just now the Kunshi family has come to look for the old slave."

Yang Haiyan took a step slower: "Is it a matter of approving dim sum?"

Aunt Fan: "No, she said she wanted two catties of small cakes and two catties of small biscuits. She also went to the dim sum shop to see them, and bought all kinds of snacks for her son to taste. She thinks small cakes and small biscuits are more suitable. Go to the county to do business."

Of course Yang Haiyan knew that it was cheap and durable. "You just keep the account."

the next day

Qin Fang took his private guard into the mountain again.

Today is still the first day of the market, and Yang Haiyan intends to "buy" some things without taking anyone else. It just so happens that today is the first day that Qin Siya can read, so she entrusts Qin Siya to the literate lotus nanny. It is also convenient to "buy" seeds by yourself.

"Haiyan..." Sister Lu came to Qianfu's house early in the morning to call someone.

Yang Haiyan rushed out: "Come on." She carried a basket.

Sister Lu looked behind her: "Are you going alone today?"

Yang Haiyan: "No, I thought maybe they had something they wanted to buy, so I gave them a day off." That's true, except for Sister Lian, everyone else has a holiday.

The market in the town is not as lively as Yang Haiyan imagined, because the vegetable market in the town is not big, and the people in the town are not rich. If the traveling merchants have good things, they will hide it until early April to go to the market in the county town to sell. , Because the county market is big, people who will go to the county market are also rich, and the businessmen are here to make money. Traveling merchants would bring things from other places to Qiguo to sell, and then exchange the things for money, and then buy some things from Qiguo and take them to other places to buy. Traveling merchants is a saying, and there is another saying that is caravans.

Some caravans are a group, with a special name for the caravan, and they travel among countries and tribes, and they are quite famous. And some travel merchants are individuals, and several individual travel merchants are formed to make a **** to travel, but everyone goes to each other to earn money.

At the beginning, Yang Haiyan was a little disappointed with the travel merchants. Although she had prepared all kinds of seeds that she wanted to "buy", she was still curious about the things of the travel merchants in the market. But going all the way with Sister-in-law Lu, I don't think there is anything unusual. She opened her eyes wide when she saw a certain brigade's stall and saw the things on it: "A lot of jade and pearls." Go crazy, there are so many jade and pearls.

If Yang Haiyan didn't know these things, she thought it was fake, but she knew a little and knew that the jade and pearls were real, at least the few pieces she picked up and looked at were real.

However, these caravans are also shrewd. In the jade, only a little bit of jade is exposed, and whether it is good or bad is still unknown, which means... the legendary gambling stone. However, it is more tempting than gambling stones, and laymen don't understand gambling stones, like Yang Haiyan, she can never guess whether there is jade in a stone. And the jade here shows a little bit of jade, which will attract people to buy it. As long as the place where it is revealed is good jade, there are still many gamblers.

Sister-in-law Lu saw Yang Haiyan stop: "Haiyan, do you want to buy jade?"

Yang Haiyan said: "I am not interested in jade, but I am interested in pearls."

Sister-in-law Lu said, "I heard that there are people out there who specialize in cultivating pearls. It is said that in the place where pearls are raised, pearls are not valuable. But if they are sold in our Qiguo, the price of pearls will be expensive."

Yang Haiyan thinks this is normal. Isn't this the sales track of the production chain? She said to Sister-in-law Lu, "Sister-in-law, I want to see pearls, why don't you go and see what you want first, and I'll come back to you later?"

Sister-in-law Lu: "Hey, good."

The traveler saw Yang Haiyan staring at the pearl and introduced enthusiastically: "This lady, do you like this pearl?"

The flower beads are light pink and look very mild.

Yang Haiyan asked, "How do you sell this?"

Traveling Merchant: "The price is different if the size is different. If the lady buys more, the price can be negotiated."

Yang Haiyan saw at a glance that there were several types of pearls here, such as pure pink flower beads, pure white South Sea white pearls, and this queen with the color of the warm sun. Of course, she didn't know what to call her in this era. is the modern name. She chose light pink flower beads, about 8mm in size: "I want 50 of these." She also chose the size of 1cm queen pearl, "I want forty of this." She also chose 1cm Nanyang white. Pearl, "I want ten of these, let's talk about the price." She is a woman, and she can't resist the charm of pearls.
