Chapter 227: Little Beggar Qingming
Half a day later, a happy negotiation came to an end. Xi Yunfei shouted in his heart that the Goguryeo people had many stupid medicines, and Li Guangzhu also thought in his heart that the Tang people did not know how to manage.
Although Xi Yunfei was not polite to Lee Kwang-soo and sold a can of kimchi to him at a price of ten times the factory price, Lee Kwang-soo had no intention of bargaining at all, but ordered 20,000 cans of various kimchi at a price of 300 yuan per can.
According to Lee Kwang-soo's plan, he bought 1,000 guan medicinal materials in Goguryeo, and brought it to the Tang Dynasty to sell it for more than ten times the profit. Now, if you use this more than ten thousand guan to buy kimchi and return to Goguryeo, you will have to increase it by at least ten times, ten times here and ten times there. This round-trip business is so easy to do.
Although I don’t know whether Lee Kwang-soo’s plan will be successful, Xi Yunfei knew that at this time, Goguryeo seemed to be a slave society, and Goguryeo maids seemed to be very popular in the Central Plains. They were well-behaved and sensible, but they could also be called Oppa.
However, Xi Yunfei has not yet gained a foothold and is not very interested in the slave trade. He just kept this matter in his heart. When he turned around, he would talk to Lee Kwang-soo.
Xi Yunfei was in a much better mood after finalizing the change of kimchi to herbs. For some reason, he was always restless these days. However, seeing that the servants who went to pick up their mother and third sister should be back, I felt a little hope in my heart.
After seeing off Li Guangshu, Xi Yunfei wanted to go to Longmen Street to see the road construction situation, but unexpectedly, when he walked to the door, he met his cousin Li Qing'er and the little girl Ning'er who had just gone shopping.
"Langjun." As soon as Ning'er saw Xi Yunfei, she jumped up to him, gave a gift obediently, took out a tart cloth bag and lifted it up, and said, "Langjun, we have bought a lot of pastries. Should you try it?"
Xi Yunfei glanced at the so-called pastry in her hand, thinking that they were just a few pots with chopped green onions, thinking that I hadn't eaten before? But he still took out one and started eating it. The instant noodles I ate for lunch were so hungry.
Seeing Xi Yunfei eating with relish, Ning'er's face turned red and she felt a little energetic.
At this time, Xi Yunfei discovered that behind Li Qing'er, there was a timid little beggar.
The little beggar was about six or seven years old, and her hair was messy, so Xi Yunfei couldn't tell whether she was a man or a woman. Xi Yunfei looked at her cousin curiously.
Seeing this, Li Qing'er raised her lips lightly, pulled the little beggar behind her to her and introduced to Xi Yunfei: "This child is named Qingming. He is from Jingyang like us. I saw that he was pitiful, so I brought him back to have fun with Ning'er."
"Oh? from Jingyang?" Xi Yunfei looked at the little beggar in surprise.
Unexpectedly, the little Qi Er pulled Li Qing'er's arm with a grievance and explained: "Sister Qing'er, my name is not Qingming, my name is Chengming."
Perhaps it was because of the accent and dialect relationship. When Xiao Qier said that Qingming and Chengming were pronunciations were basically the same, but he could not hear the difference.
Li Qing'er said with a funny look: "That's right, Qingming, Qingming, did I read it wrong?"
The little beggar wanted to cry without tears. Because it was his own name, he cared very much, so he could distinguish the differences from other people's accents.
After hearing Xiaoqi'er's defense, Xi Yunfei was stunned for a moment, observed Xiaoqi'er for a while, and saw that his eyebrows were clean and clear, and he thought that he was not a bad person. After thinking about it, he nodded and said, "Since he is a fellow villager, then take him to wash. If he is willing, I can ask Uncle Li to help him find his relatives. Such a young child should not be able to walk from Jingyang to Shuo alone."
Xi Yunfei's words changed the little beggar's expression a little, but when it fell into the eyes of others, they only saw a few traces of missing their family.
Li Qing'er touched the little beggar's head pitifully and said to Xi Yunfei: "This little guy doesn't remember anything. His parents have passed away. There is only one sister who depends on each other. He said that his sister seems to be Wanyue. I have asked Uncle Li to help pay more attention."
"Wanyue?" Xi Yunfei glanced at the little beggar. Seeing him hiding behind Li Qing'er and looking at him timidly, he no longer had any worries and said to Li Qing'er: "Since you have already informed Uncle Li, then pay more attention. I want to see the road construction situation. You can go back and rest for a while and have been shopping all day long, don't be tired."
After Xi Yunfei left with Wang Dachui, the little beggar looked at their departure with thoughtful thoughts.
Then, he turned to Li Qing'er and asked, "Sister Qing'er, is that the man who took down Shuofang East City overnight?"
Li Qing'er was stunned when she heard this, but Ning'er next to her ran to him and showed off: "That's not, my husband is so tired. What's the point of taking down Shuofang East City? The uncles of the garrison said that as long as the husband is willing, it will be a trivial matter to go north to Shuofang West City and take down Liang Shidu's head."
"Oh!?" The little beggar turned to look at Xi Yunfei who was gradually moving away, with a few strange colors between his eyebrows and eyes.
Although Li Qing'er was also proud of her cousin, she knew that she would talk less about such topics, so that she would not be listened to by those who were interested, which ruined Xi Yunfei's reputation. She reached out and pulled the arms of the two children: "Okay, okay, hurry up and go in. It's cold this day, so you have to take a hot bath to get rid of the cold."
After Li Qing'er and Ning'er were pulled into Xijiazhuang by Li Qing'er, Xi Yunfei and Wang Dachui, who had already reached the corner of the street, suddenly turned around and looked over.
Xi Yunfei suddenly reached out and patted his thigh, and suddenly realized: "Chengming, yes, Chengming..."
Seeing that Xi Yunfei seemed to be crazy, Wang Dahui said curiously: "What's wrong with Mr. Lang? But what's wrong with that little beggar?"
Xi Yunfei smiled, shook his head, and said, "I just suddenly remembered some interesting things, it's not a problem. A little beggar. Since my cousin wants to take in, then stay."
"······" Wang Dachui looked puzzled, and he repeatedly considered the word "Chengming" in his mind, but he just couldn't think of the reason.
Shuofang East City, the city garrison.
News of Goguryeo merchants and Xi Yunfei's exchange of information has just reached Chai Shaoerli.
Chai Shao was eating snacks at this time. He looked at the kimchi on the table and turned to the adjutant and said, "First follow the troops and wait for His Majesty's instructions."
The adjutant nodded, then tightened the collar on his neck and whispered: "There is another thing that I want to obtain the general's consent."
"What's the matter?" Chai Shao took a sip of the almost cold noodle soup and asked curiously.
The adjutant swallowed, licked his dry lips, and said carefully: "Many soldiers in the army are suffering from frostbite. The military doctor said it was caused by cold weather. If, if it can warm the soldiers, the symptoms should be relieved."
"Frostbite is not a trivial matter, it is time to properly settle the patients. This time I went north and gained a lot. I can buy another 30% of the charcoal in the camp." Chai Shao thought that the adjutant wanted to buy charcoal for the first time, so he waved his hand and responded generously.
Unexpectedly, the adjutant shyly said with a shy face: "The general misunderstood. In fact, we can save more money. Just buy a coal stove."
