After he and his mother-in-law separated, he built a house and stocked a warehouse full of grain and

In the past, Bai Manshan asked villagers to go out to deliver potatoes for one hundred cents a day, but that didn't require them to provide donkeys. Now it costs one hundred cents for one person and one donkey. Shui Qing doesn't know the market, and he feels unsure.

However, Fan Jin said that Bai Manshan's price is indeed very high. In normal times, a man's daily wages for pulling a cart would not exceed forty cents at most, and most of them were thirty-two cents. If you go to Yuhangyuan, you can earn money from your own medicinal shop and take care of it appropriately. You can visit people in a village, but there is no need to set it too high.

No matter what you do, you have to pay attention to the market price. If Murakami provides donkeys himself, one hundred cents should be enough, right? Look at the opinions of the elders in the village.

Mr. Wang opened his mouth: "Okay! The fields have been planted, the potatoes have been harvested, the land has been plowed, and there is no need to use donkeys, so why not?"

Father Wu followed: "Last time, Master Bai sent potatoes a hundred cents a day, but that was to pull potatoes, and people were much tired. Now, if you have a donkey, you can ride it by yourself, and you don't need to pull the goods or walk. Isn’t it comfortable? I’d rather go for a hundred cents a day!”

It means the world is not peaceful, otherwise we really don’t need so many people to go out to deliver goods.

A person earns one hundred taels of silver a day, and he hires thirty or forty men at once, which is three or four taels of silver a day. God, how many taels of silver does it cost to deliver goods for one trip?

The old village chief looked at Shui Qing and asked worriedly: "Is this delivery profitable?"

Shui Qing did not expect that they had no objection at all and were still concerned that the cost would be too high and she would not make any money.

He smiled and said: "For those who are profitable, Renjitang has limited the quantity of goods and has not sold them all. In addition to the savings in the past two months, the rest will be prepared and shipped out before departure. We just have to wait until the medicinal materials are harvested in Qiuyue this year before we can continue to process them.

There is an extra wage, but there is also less monthly silver at the end. The difference is not big. Besides, if the purchase price offered by Yuhang is even a little higher, all the wages will be earned back! Don't worry, old village chief. "

Fortunately, Polygonum multiflorum is a valuable medicinal material, and yam is not bad. If it were replaced by kudzu root, it would be heavy and cheap, so it is really not suitable to travel long distances to Yuhang to sell it - you can't even earn back the freight.

If it's just kudzu, it can't afford the wages at all.

The old village chief made a decision: "Okay, let's talk to our family and the people around us later to harvest potatoes and cultivate the land quickly, and then each of us will pick out our family members, so as not to delay going out in mid-February."

The buns were sent out, and the delivery was unexpectedly finalized in advance. I felt refreshed and relieved.

In the evening, after Fan Jin and his family came back from planting medicinal materials on the farthest mountain, Shui Qing explained in detail about their delivery at the dinner table.

Hu Wenhua was acceptable, Fan He stood up with a groan, extremely excited, and confirmed in disbelief: "Auntie, do you really want me to go?"

Mother Hu worriedly asked: "Is Dahe a little young?"

Fan He panicked and promised: "Grandma, I want to go out and have a look. I promise to listen to my uncle's words along the way and never do anything dangerous!"

He also emphasized his own value: "Grandma, don't look at me as a child. Uncle Bai said that I am suitable for business. My mother-in-law has also taught me a lot. Maybe I can come in handy when I go to Yuhang?"

That was Yuhang, the Jiangnan in the books. When we got there, it happened to be March. It was said that Jiangnan in March was very beautiful. He wanted to go!

Fan Jinrou mentioned: "Dahe's temperament is not suitable for reading and literacy. He can't sit still and just wants to run out. Since he doesn't take the imperial examination route, literacy and arithmetic are almost enough now. It would be better to go out and see more people."

Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. When it comes to doing business in Dahe’s future, it is true that what can be learned from books is limited, and he still has to explore on his own.

Shui Qing wasn't very worried. There were many young boys in their teens who followed their master's family everywhere. Plus, as Fan Jin said, he was really not a student. Dahe had been bothering her for a long time, and she just wanted to go out. Get out, you will never grow up if you don't let go - maybe she is a cruel mother!

Ding Heli said cheerfully on the side: "We suffered a flood last year, which caused a lot of chaos. Now, although King Yan has rebelled, he is in Beidu, and the new emperor is in Jinling, both of which are north of Yuhang;

Moreover, this Jiangnan area has always been an important area for paying taxes and grain. The governor has always been the most capable and will not cause chaos. It must be safer than here. "

Mother Hu was relieved.

Seeing that Fan He could go, the other children immediately cast envious glances.

Yan Qiuxing looked at Shui Qing eagerly in her late summer.

Shui Qing said without thinking: "You three can't do it!"

She is worried!

Then he couldn't bear it and comforted him: "When the world stabilizes later, mother will take you with us. Let's go sightseeing! When we arrive in a city, we can stay for a few days, eat local specialties, and enjoy the famous local scenery. It will be much more fun than traveling on the road. ”

Yan Qiuxing returned to Wanxia and was so happy that she almost jumped up.

Ding Jiajia said quickly: "Sister Shui Qing, I want to come with you! Can you take me with you too? By the way, there is also my mother!"

Shui Qing agreed very readily: "That's for sure! Let's go, too, and my mother. We will set off in February. Going north will be colder than ours. It happens to be March in the south of the Yangtze River, which is neither cold nor hot. The climate is pleasant and suitable for travel. .

I also know, uh, I read in the book that there is a lake in Yuhang that is famous. It is said that it looks better when it rains. You must like it in the misty rain in Jiangnan. "

Ding Jiajia's eyes were bright and she wanted to go now.

She looked at Hu Wenhua unconsciously, and Hu Wenhua replied without thinking: "Let me explore the way first, and then I will lead the way for you."

Ding Jiajia blushed with embarrassment.

Shui Qing burst into laughter.

It seems that the rest of them are in that 'them'.

My brother's performance was too obvious.

Ding Heli was unconvinced, "Why should you lead the way? Don't you still have me? I will come then!"

Qin Yilin touched Ding Heli and said angrily: "Isn't it the same as who takes it? The medicinal materials will be ready in February. Let's go together then."

Mother Hu was worried before, but now she is very excited after hearing what they said.

She has lived to be so old, and the farthest place is Fucheng and Jiangnan. Can she really see it?

No matter what, the most important thing is to live well first. As long as you live, there is hope.

A large group of people had a lively dinner, then washed up and went back to their houses.

In the days that followed, the men worked in the fields and hills, while the women made dry food at home.

If you're going out for more than a month, you need to prepare at least two months' worth of dry food. It's okay to have more, but I'm afraid it won't be enough.

There must be food for sale outside, but since they come from poor families, who would be willing to buy food outside?

What’s more, we have a bumper potato harvest at home, and we also made a lot of kudzu powder last year, which is suitable for taking on the road. Of course, you don’t need to buy it outside if you have it at home.

Shui Qing led Da Ni and Ni Ni to smoke the pork sent by Ling Ce as soon as possible and take it with them on the road to eat and supplement their nutrition.

There are many people, the journey is long, and there are many things to bring, so every household is busy.
