After making arrangements for Lin Changhe, Ye Nitang immediately set off for the county.

Liuhe Town is more than sixty miles away from Leyuan County.

The mountain road was rugged and swaying, and we didn't arrive at the south gate of the county until noon.

“Do we still have to queue up when entering the city?”

Ye Nitang looked curiously at the long queue outside the city gate.

The original owner used to not queue up when entering the city.

"Is there something going on in the county?" The big man driving the car glanced at the city gate.

This morning he borrowed the village ox cart to go shopping in the town.

When he met Ye Fool and asked him if he was going to the county town, he thought it was easy to cheat Ye Fool's money, so he casually said a hundred yuan.

Unexpectedly, she actually gave it.

If you enter the county town and can't get out, you can't go back at night, and you can't return the oxcart, it will be troublesome.

Thinking of this, the big man quickly jumped out of the bullock cart and said, "Miss Ye, I can only send you here."

Ye Nitang laughed angrily, "We agreed that you would send me to the county town and you can't leave until I find a place to live."

"No, the investigation is so strict today, something must be wrong. If I go in, I might not be able to get out."

The big man moved Ye Nitang's four large baskets out of the ox cart, turned the ox's head around, and was about to leave.

Ye Nitang grabbed the oxcart shaft and said, "You can leave if you want, just give me your money back."

"Hey, Ye Hanzi, how can you be so unreasonable? I sent you to the county seat, why should I refund you?"

The big man spanked the cow as hard as he could, not wanting to pay back the money.

However, the car just can't move.

Seeing that there was a dispute here, the good-hearted people frequently looked over.

Ye Nitang still refused to let go, "You are unreasonable. The money I gave you is to send me into the city. If you only send me out of the city, then refund the overcharge to me."

The man also shouted: "I have already sent you, let go quickly, don't delay my return home."

"Ha, you haven't heard of my evil reputation, have you?" Ye Nitang raised her fist and hit him on the cheek, "I don't want to fight with you, please refund the money quickly."

"Okay, okay, bad luck for me." The big man covered his face with one hand, took out fifty coins with the other and gave it back to Ye Nitang, and drove away quickly in the bullock cart.

Ye Nitang was too lazy to care. He scanned the queue to enter the city from beginning to end, and found that there were more than a hundred people.

It would be a long time before she could wait.

"Hey, sister-in-law, do you want to help me? It costs five cents for a trip to the city."

At the gate of the city, several porters who specialized in carrying goods came over carrying poles and baskets.

Ye Nitang looked at them. One person couldn't carry a basket, and she couldn't put the ointment into their baskets.

"You carry my four baskets in twos and twos. Wherever I go, you follow me? How about ten coins per person?"

The salary is twice as long and the work is half as easy, so of course I am willing!

Several porters nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay."

"Then just carry it. I'll pay you when we get there."

"Okay!" Several porters waved to the distance, and three more were called. They bundled the baskets with the straw ropes they brought and lifted them up with long poles.

The owner of a carriage waiting to enter the city listened to the conversation she had just had with the man in the bullock cart.

She opened the curtain curiously, wanting to see what the woman with a notorious reputation looked like.

Suddenly, a tall, fat black woman came into view.

The tea she had just taken into her mouth was sprayed out by her.

She wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and giggled, "No wonder she said she has a reputation for being fierce, she looks really fierce!"

Ye Nitang, who was about to leave, stopped dead in his tracks and raised his head to meet a pair of watery Xing'er eyes.

"Young lady, you are so pretty. Buy a piece of balm to refresh your mind, repel mosquitoes and cool down the heat. It's fifty cents each. You can't buy it and suffer a loss. You can't be cheated!"

After hearing what she said, the girl's eyes widened in shock at first, then she covered her mouth with a silk handkerchief and kept laughing, "Hahaha!"

This fat aunt is so interesting.

The little maid sitting next to the driver suddenly jumped out of the carriage and said, "Sister-in-law, did you just say that your balm can reduce the heat?"

The little maid was thirteen or fourteen years old, her round face was sunburned and her lips were dry.

There was annoyance caused by the sun in his eyes.

Judging from the frown on her face, she must have suffered from heat stroke.

Ye Nitang opened a pack of cooling ointment and put it in front of her nose, "Hurry and apply it on your temples."

The little girl felt much more comfortable all over after smelling the scent.

She dipped some of the cooling ointment with her white fingertips and rubbed it on her temples.

My head felt like it was soaked in ice water, and I woke up instantly.

The whole body felt as if the cold autumn wind was blowing, feeling extremely comfortable.

"Sister-in-law, your ointment is really effective. I don't feel dizzy anymore." The little girl happily took the cooling ointment. "How much did it cost? I bought it."

"My special one is for heat stroke, fifty cents a piece," Ye Nitang said, glancing at the wheels of their carriage, "It's getting hotter and hotter today, and people who are most likely to suffer from heat stroke when traveling far away can buy more. Have it ready in the car.”

The girl on the carriage happened to see her looking at the wheels of her carriage.

I feel that this fat woman's thoughts are quite delicate. She can tell from the wheels that they have come from a long distance.

She looked at the little maid and said, "Bingyan, buy ten."

Hearing that they didn't mind, Ye Nitang looked at the girl in the car and smiled like a flower.

"This beautiful young lady, you must be very bored sitting in the carriage,

You buy two hundred cooling ointments from me and put them in the corner of the carriage.

No need to open it, just let the cool fragrance slowly spread.

I promise you will feel refreshed from now on and will never feel thirsty again. "

"Haha, what you said is so absurd, give me two hundred."

The girl's smile never fell from her brows. Looking at Ye Nitang's confident face, she took out a gold ingot and threw it into Ye Nitang's basket.

Ye Nitang's eyes flashed with surprise. The person who used the gold ingot to buy things had an unusual background.

Yes, just look at her bright eyes and white teeth, her pretty and refined face, and her innocent aura.

You know she is a wealthy girl who grew up in a free and happy environment.

She put away the gold ingot, cupped her hands and said, "Thank you, young lady, for your discerning eye."

The girl looked at Ye Nitang and smiled like a spring flower, "You're welcome, Bingyan, take the bag and put it in."

"Yes, ma'am."

Bingyan ran back to the carriage, took a beautiful cloth bag, and counted two hundred cooling ointments with Ye Nitang.

Finally, Ye Nitang gave them a bottle of jasmine dew, "I made it myself. If you feel uncomfortable again, you can take a sip."

Bingyan opened the lid and smelled it, and it smelled better than the perfume the owner brought back from the foreign country in the desert to the west.

She thanked: "This floral dew is so fragrant, thank you so much, sister-in-law."

"You're welcome, I'm going to sell balm. We'll see you again by fate!"

After Ye Nitang finished speaking, he led eight big men along the line to sell the cooling ointment one by one.

The people in line were dizzy from the sun, but when they first smelled the cool mint fragrance, they immediately felt energetic.

If I had spare money, I bought one. After applying it, my whole body felt comfortable.

He quickly called Ye Nitang and asked for a few more pieces.

People have a herd mentality. When they see someone rushing to buy something, they will pay for it one after another.

Some people who were out of the city also gathered around out of curiosity.

Four baskets of ointment were sold, and within a short time, one-third of them were sold.
