Dressed as a cute kid with a farm: Pick up a brother to farm

The two of them sat on the ox cart, swaying along the way, looking at the surrounding farm scenery, listening to gossip about family life, and soon arrived in town.

This time it's not Meng Huaishao's home court, so he just needs to do his job as a mascot.

He did not get involved in things like finding buyers, but just quietly followed the ox cart.

In order to improve efficiency and get a good price, the two ox carts split into two after entering the town and went to two different restaurants.

Meng Huaishao took the initiative to suggest that he and Ye Yaoyao follow the ox cart to Yuelai Restaurant.

Relatively speaking, he is more familiar with Yuelai Restaurant, and people will subconsciously choose a familiar environment.

When they arrived at Yuelai Restaurant, they discussed business, and he could borrow some water to make fried noodle porridge for the baby.

There were many people traveling this time, so it was not convenient to get water directly from the farm space. When considering things, convenience was naturally the priority.

Aunt Niu didn't make things difficult for him and told him to stay close to the group and not get separated from everyone else.

Although the men in the family praised Meng Huaishao as a killer who would kill anyone who stood in his way[Note 1], no matter how she looked at it, Meng Huaishao was a well-behaved, kind and hardworking child.

She usually hunts small animals. She believes that she can fight against eight wild boars alone, so why not talk about fighting against Marshal Tianpeng?

"Be careful, Xiao Meng too. We'll meet at the town gate later."

"I understand, Aunt Niu, just go and do your work, don't worry about us!"

Seeing that Meng Huaishao agreed, Aunt Niu asked the people who were traveling with her to take care of the two children, and then she took another car and went in another direction.

Meng Huaishao and his group drove a ox cart all the way to Yuelai Restaurant.

Compared with the last big market, the business of Yuelai Restaurant has been much slower.

There were a few customers eating breakfast in the store.

Shopkeeper Zheng was playing with his abacus out of boredom when he saw an ox cart parked at the door. He put down the abacus and walked out to take a look.

"Shopkeeper Zheng!"

Meng Huaishao jumped off the ox cart holding his baby and greeted Manager Zheng with a smile.

"It's Brother Xiao Meng!"

Manager Zheng also laughed: "Brother, you caught prey again? What is it this time?"

Shopkeeper Zheng looked at the volume of the cart and smelled the strong fishy smell. He knew that it was not living prey, and the smile on his face was unnatural.

"The restaurant's business has not been very good recently, so they may not need that much game."

He can eat it while it’s still alive, but this dead thing… he can’t let it go!

Meng Huaishao didn't mind that Manager Zheng didn't collect all the wild boars. He said truthfully, "I didn't hunt these wild boars. They were hunted by the elders in my village and collected overnight."

"You can see how much you can collect."

The rest will be dragged to wealthy residential areas and sold.

Of course, everyone understands the latter sentence without saying it.

After hearing what Meng Huaishao said, Manager Zheng did not continue talking to him, but stood at the door and talked to the aunt who led the team.

Meng Huaishao brought the baby into the restaurant, borrowed a bowl of hot water, and sat in the corner to mix flour porridge.

The fried flour paste had just been prepared and their deal had been concluded.

Shopkeeper Zheng picked out half a piece of wild boar meat and a piece of spareribs, and bought them at 15 cents per pound.

After weighing, the wild boar meat weighed 150 catties, and the ribs weighed 60 catties, a total of 210 catties, which were sold for three taels and one hundred and fifty coins.

Meng Huaishao and Ye Yaoyao glanced over there and saw that the aunts and teenagers who were traveling with them were all very happy.

That smile is so real that it makes people happy when they see it.

They didn't expect that they could make more than three taels of silver from the first business.

But then they became worried again. There were still nearly 300 kilograms of wild boar meat on the ox cart. What should they do if Manager Zheng refused to take it?

Although it has been said long ago that the unsold properties would be taken to the wealthy areas and sold to rich households, the problem is that none of them have ever been there!

Not to mention experience, even courage is not enough!

Shopkeeper Zheng seemed to see their troubles, thought about it, and asked Niu An to accompany them.

There's nothing much to do in the store anyway, so I might as well help them out and let them do me a favor.

It doesn’t matter whether you can use it or not, favors are accumulated over time.

"Niu An, you often go to South Street, take your fellow villagers with you!"

Listening to Manager Zheng's arrangements, everyone was moved to tears of gratitude.

After all, Niu An is from their village and is very trustworthy.

"Good Le!"

Hearing the voice, Niu An quickly took off the handkerchief from his shoulder and put it away, then walked out quickly.

He was very happy to make this trip.

In addition to wanting to know how the village hunted so many wild boars, he also happened to have something to convey to the village chief.

The shopkeeper's arrangement is really thoughtful!

Seeing that they were about to set off, Meng Huaishao decided not to follow them.

"Aunts, Yaoyao is hungry and needs to eat first. Otherwise, you guys go first, and when Yaoyao is full, we will come over to meet you."

Everyone hesitated for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to wait for him.

"Xiao Meng, feed the child and wait for us at the restaurant!"

Niu An looked left and right and said, "The weather is getting hotter and hotter. We can't let the wild boar meat dry in the sun. Neither can the baby. If we go there, it will only torment the baby."

"After you sell the meat, it's not far to come back. The shopkeeper is a good man and won't chase you away!"

After hearing this, everyone nodded in understanding.

Yes! Wild boar meat will become smelly if it is exposed to the sun for a long time. If a baby is exposed to the sun, it is easy to get heatstroke. In that case, good things will not be achieved, but the baby will suffer.

"Xiao Meng, just listen to Niu An. You guys take a rest here!"

"Yeah yeah!"

Listening to everyone's advice, Meng Huaishao did not insist.

Anyway, he has completed his duties as a mascot, no, his duty as a bodyguard.

No matter how bad the situation is in this town, there won't be any blatant robbery.

What if it really happened?

He couldn't solve that either.

After all, among the people in the world, Meng Huaishao is just a rookie.

However, the dragon power that Ye Yaoyao subconsciously stimulated was still very weak and had no strong deterrent effect on people.

Therefore, if they really encounter someone who has the guts to rob in the town, they can only run away.

While feeding the baby, Meng Huaishao was thinking about the village's military strength. Should he find a way to improve it?

But practicing martial arts is not only hard and tiring, it also consumes a lot of energy.

In other words, the appetite has increased!

Aren’t they doing this to the whole village just to store more food so that everyone can survive?

If the energy consumed in practicing martial arts is too great, and some villagers starve to death because they cannot supply the big eaters, that would be the most ridiculous thing in the world [Note 2]!

Meng Huaishao thought about it for a long time, but finally gave up.

[Note 1]: If gods stand in your way, kill gods; if Buddhas stand in your way, kill Buddhas: This is from the Zen master Yijing: "If you wish to gain a proper understanding of the Dharma, do not mislead others. Look inside and outside, and kill whatever you meet. If you meet a Buddha, kill the Buddha; if you meet a patriarch, kill the patriarch."

[Note 2]: It is a joke that the whole world is laughing at: From Lu Xun's "Lace Literature: The Vitality of Essays": "Not only the singing skills, but also the black-headed and drooling faces playing the clowns, and the clowns sticking out their chests to imitate the black-headed ones. The more clowns there are on the stage, the more white-nosed and black-faced they are. This is a joke that the whole world is laughing at."
