Thinking about going to town, Mao Xiaosui didn't sleep much all night. He only squinted for a while when the rooster crowed in the backyard at dawn.

When he opened his eyes again, it was bright outside, and neither Li Yunshan nor Heizi was in the room.

She hurriedly tidied the bed and went to the kitchen. Porridge was already cooking in the kitchen pot, and Heizi was shouting in the backyard.

She went out and broke off a branch to clean her teeth. When she walked to the hut, she glanced at the backyard and saw Heizi standing at the door of the chicken pen barking inside.

Afraid that he would be hungry on the way if he arrived late in the afternoon, Mao Xiaosui dug out a bowl of noodles and steamed the steamed buns with boiling water after washing.

Before the noodles were kneaded, Heizi ran in first, followed by Li Yunshan.

Li Yunshan was holding vegetables in his arms. He entered the kitchen and found her kneading dough. He asked in confusion, "What are you doing kneading dough?"

"Steamed steamed buns. If you come back late, you can eat them on the way."

He nodded, washed the vegetables and went to wash up.

Heizi was still squatting at the door, staring at her constantly.

Before steaming the steamed buns, she fried green vegetables. After eating, Li Yunshan went to get the soap. Mao Xiaosui put the steamed buns into a dry food bag, cleaned the kitchen, and left some morning porridge for Xiao Hei. Set off with Li Yunshan.

When going downhill, I happened to meet Ding Wenxiu who was standing at the intersection as if waiting for someone.

Li Yunshan passed by with a normal expression, but Ding Wenxiu started to curse when he passed by.

There are thousands of roads in the countryside, and the roads from the village to the town are different from the roads to the market. Apart from meeting people from the village, there are no people who are going to the town on the same road.

Li Yunshan's pace was so fast that Mao Xiaosui could follow him at first, but then he stopped chasing him and said to him, "You go first, I can't catch up with you."

Li Yunshan slowed down his pace, and Lu Chen was stunned for an hour and a half before letting her walk.

From walking up the steep slope of Liyun Mountain Pass to seeing the town gate and then entering the town, what I saw was somewhat different from what Mao Xiaosui thought.

It wasn't as busy as she thought, but it was still lively.

There are shops on both sides of the streets in the town, and there are tables and stalls on the streets. Different from the mud houses at home, these shops are all made of wood at first glance, and the color is the most original kind of wood. The only thing that can be considered festive The only thing is the red lantern hanging at the door.

Almost every shop has them hanging, and the clothes worn by pedestrians walking on the street are also more colorful.

Li Yunshan saw that she kept looking around, and he looked very curious and helplessly interrupted her, "Let's do business first."

Mao Xiaosui nodded and followed him.

It is common to see things sold on the street, such as food, headwear, shoes and socks, and there are also stalls selling soap.

"Where should we ask?" she asked in a low voice Li Yunshan, who had been looking around.

Li Yunshan looked at it for a long time, and finally pointed to a house not far away. He took out two face-covering cloths from his arms, dressed them up carefully, and then walked into the shop.

There are fabric shops on both sides of that shop, and you can even smell a faint fragrance from it.

The shop is not big, with various cabinets and tables inside, and various small boxes placed on wooden shelves against the wall.

Mao Xiaosui glanced around and determined that this was a place selling spices.

The shopkeeper, who was about the same age as them, walked forward with a book in his hand and asked politely, "What do you two want to buy? There are soaps, balms, incense in the shop..."

"Do you accept soap?"

The shop owner frowned and shook his head, "I'm sorry, everything in our store comes from somewhere."

"Why don't you decide after taking a look at it." Li Yunshan took out the soap.

The shopkeeper swallowed his refusal when he saw what they were holding, took it and began to examine it carefully.

Because I had never seen it before, I was quite skeptical, "Is this soap?"

"Yes."

The shop owner frowned, thought for a while and asked, "How do you sell it?"

She looked at Li Yunshan, who gave him the same price as before, "five cents."

Upon hearing this, the shop owner immediately started shaking his head, "It's too expensive. I can't sell a small place like ours even if I keep it."

It was expected, and the two of them were not surprised. They just asked, "How much can you give?"

The shop owner smelled it carefully and asked, "Did you make this yourself? Our store doesn't dare to accept your items from unknown sources."

The two of them didn't know what he meant, but the young man's attitude from the moment he entered the door to when he proposed to sell soap was considered kind, and he shouldn't be a treacherous person, so Mao Xiaosui asked, "Why don't you dare to accept it?"

"I'm afraid something might happen. I said at the beginning that everything in our shop has its origin. If there is any problem, just go to the boss. Have you... ever logged in at the Yamen?"

She looked confused and looked at Li Yunshan.

Li Yunshan was also confused and asked, "Want to log in?"

"It's okay if you sell it yourself as long as there are no problems, but if you want to sell it in the shop, of course you need it. After all, if something goes wrong with this thing... we won't be able to find anyone."

"If you think your stuff is okay, you can go to the county and try it. This small place in our town is too expensive and no one will buy it."

As if seeing their confusion, the young man hesitated.

Mao Xiaosui saw this and hurriedly asked, "Does the shop owner have something to say?"

The young man smiled and said, "I just want to remind you that if something makes you unhappy, don't take it to heart."

The two nodded hurriedly, and then the young man said, "This craft may not be a good thing in the hands of ordinary people like us. If you two have the ability, just do it. If you don't... it's better to think twice. The county is not as small as ours. It’s just an ordinary business, but if you block other people’s way of making money, I’m afraid it will be difficult to get along.”

The two of them looked at each other, nodded and thanked each other, and then asked reluctantly, "You really don't want to accept it?"

"Our shop does not accept items of unknown origin." The young man was as kind as ever. His eyes were clear and bright, and he looked like a magnanimous gentleman with a bright mind.

The two of them were also very convinced by his words.

They couldn't force it anymore, so they thanked him again and left.

This result was unexpected. Mao Xiaosui was very confused and subconsciously looked at Li Yunshan, "What should I do?"

Li Yunshan didn't know that this was the first time he had the idea of ​​doing business with people in the town, but he didn't think it would work at all.

After standing on the road for a long time, Li Yunshan still said, "Let's go shopping and go home. Keep the things first, just in case you get lucky like the salesman. Mugwort soap is ordinary, so we can sell it ourselves."

Mao Xiaosui nodded.

She had actually given up the idea when she heard the young man say those words in the store. Now she heard that Li Yunshan didn't insist and just felt relieved.

Making money is important, but life is more expensive. The most important thing is that they have enough to eat, so there is no need to take risks.

I was happy after I figured it out, and took Li Yunshan around again.
