Chapter 86 Why are you queuing up here?
I found an inn and just booked a room. The cheapest room was 20 cents a night.
Village Chief Tian said to Shen Yunxi: "Youqing's family, take Daniel to your room and take the money with you. You have to pay attention. Ergou and I were resting on the bullock cart in the backyard, watching us. of cattle to prevent them from being stolen.”
Unfamiliar environment. It is always right to be careful.
Shen Yunxi nodded: "Hey, thank you for your hard work, village chief. Today, I asked the shopkeeper about the situation and prices of the two seed shops. The local credit is very good. The iron shop is on the other side of the county. Let's go it alone. You go buy iron tools, and Daniel and I go buy seeds."
Chief Tamura was very worried. "These seeds from the Youqing family are related to the harvest this season. Can you tell whether they are good or bad?"
Shen Yunxi smiled and said: "Uncle village chief, Youqing is not at home, and I plant all the fields at home. Have you ever seen that my crops are not growing well? Is the grain harvest small?"
Tian Ergou gave a thumbs up and said to Shen Yunxi: "Village chief, the fields of Youqing's family are good. I go to see the fields of our village every day, and they are better than those of experienced farmers."
Tian Daniu also quickly said: "My mother is very powerful."
Chief Tamura thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, go buy some grain seeds. If possible, buy more."
Shen Yunxi nodded: "Okay, this grain is two cents more expensive than ordinary grain. The grain is rich, eight cents per catty. One acre of land requires seven or eight kilograms of grain. A thousand kilograms of good grain is worth it. Eight taels of silver."
"Then buy 1,000 kilograms." Chief Tian replied: "Ergou, I just saw you talking happily with a black-faced old man. What did you say?"
Tian Ergou replied: "The old man is a farmer, or a local farmer, so I said that he must be an old farmer. Although I can't fully understand what he said, and he may not understand what I said, but The general idea is very clear. Besides, I have farmed in the south and I know how to grow rice."
"Ergou is awesome. This year we have to rely on you to grow rice." Chief Tamura praised.
It was getting late, so everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
At dawn the next day, they began to get up, eat and take action separately.
Shen Yunxi was not in a hurry to buy seeds. She observed the two stores carefully. When she saw a lot of people queuing in one store, she took Tian Daniu to queue.
Tian Daniu looked at another grain seed store not far away and asked in a low voice: "Mom, there are very few people there, and you can buy seeds quickly. Why do we have to queue here?"
Shen Yunxi lowered her voice and whispered to Tian Daniu: "We are not familiar with them. We don't know the details of these two stores, but the locals know the quality of these two stores. With so many people buying them, it must be right."
Tian Daniu suddenly understood.
A woman buying millet in front vaguely understood the conversation between Shen Yunxi and Tian Daniu. She also leaned over and lowered her voice and said: "The boss of that shop has changed. There are shrunken shells inside. My man is at his house. I bought some. After the seeds were soaked, many empty shells came out. We didn’t have enough seeds at home, so we had to buy more.”
Shen Yunxi understood, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
"Come from out of town?" The woman looked at Shen Yunxi, who was sallow and skinny, but her clothes were not bad and there were no patches on her body. She could not tell that Shen Yunxi was a refugee fleeing famine.
Shen Yunxi smiled and said, "Yes, sister-in-law. My master has returned to his hometown from the north. We are the servants he bought from the north. Our accents are not from here. We make you laugh."
