There is An Apocalyptic Man in the Village

Shiqiao Town, which is approaching the end of the new year, is much more lively than usual, and the people who come to the market can only be described as crowded.

All the way to the town, I met a lot of villagers. Whether they are adults or children, there are joyful smiles on their faces. A year of hard work is the most relaxing and happiest these days. The taste of Chinese New Year is very strong, and every family is actively working Get ready for the holidays.

After driving the ox cart to the town, Lin Laogen wisely asked Lin Tianbao to go shopping with Wu Qingyuan, A Mo and Brother Zhou, while he and Erfang's family went to tie the ox cart and buy things for the New Year.

"Brother Angus, candied haws and haws!"

"Brother, firecrackers, there are firecrackers!"

"Look, brother Zhou, Xiaomian!"

Lin Tianbao is also a lively character, and he is a child. Once he arrived in the town, he never stopped. He kept pointing at the dazzling array of things on the street and shouted excitedly.

Brother Zhou and Lin Amo have always doted on him, and they both used their pocket money to buy things to coax the children. Wu Qingyuan was also generous, and after a while, the children had a bunch of good things in their hands. Eat something fun.

Brother Zhou also took a bunch of candied haws by himself, and kept shouting "Cousin/Brother Ang, look!" After all, the two of them are actually only teenagers, and they still have a youthful heart.

After buying some children's toys for Lin Tianbao, Wu Qingyuan took out the dowry list written last night and prepared to start making dowry for Brother Zhou.

All the dowries on the list were decided after he learned about the customs of Liushu Village and carefully thought about it. He wrote two full sheets of paper densely. Zhou Geer and A Mo are learning to read characters recently, but they don’t know much. What they didn't know, but they were startled just by looking at the number.

"Cousin, this, this is too much..."

Brother Zhou was a little scared by the two densely packed papers. He knew that his cousin was good to him, but how much money would it cost for the dowry of the two papers? Normally, it would be enough for a little brother to dowry some pots and mattresses. The better family will give some more money, the cousin's posture is really scary.

"Don't worry, it's a once-in-a-lifetime thing, my cousin decides..."

Wu Qingyuan is actually a very strong person, and the decision he made will basically not change, but after talking to Brother Zhou, he looked at Lin Amo next to him, his eyes seemed to be asking, what do you think, daughter-in-law?

The tacit understanding of Amo, of course, understood what he meant, and while secretly ashamed Brother Ang for being unscrupulous, he blushed and helped him persuade Brother Zhou, "Ah Xi, just listen to Brother Ang."

The more dowry comes to the in-law’s family to have the confidence. The sensible little brothers and girls understand that Zhang Dazhu likes Gui and Zhou, but there are so many brothers and sisters in the Zhang family, and there are so many sisters-in-law. There will inevitably be friction between getting along. Even if you support her, you can't watch them all the time. The only way to let your husband's family know the confidence of your daughter-in-law's family is through the dowry.

Wu Qingyuan's list is indeed a bit too much, it is more than the dowry of girls in the village, and it must cost a lot of money. If other girls and brothers know that their future husband-in-law will do this, they will feel a little uncomfortable. He felt that Xianggong disregarded his own family and favored his cousins ​​and relatives, but it didn't exist when he came to A Mo's place. He listened to Wu Qingyuan when he decided whether it was good or bad. The idea was simple.

Both Wu Qingyuan and A Mo persuaded him in this way, but Zhou Geer couldn't refute, so he could only follow Wu Qingyuan to buy his own dowry, moved and nervous.

Brother Zhou was really taken aback when he started to buy.

Gold and silver jewellery, cloth ready-made clothes, dragon and phoenix quilts, children and grandchildren barrels, etc. are all the standard equipment for girls from rich families in the town when they get married, and each piece is all of the best quality. !Because there are more gold and silver ornaments.

Don’t say Brother Zhou is stupid, even Lin Amo was shocked. They don’t know how much money Wu Qingyuan has, but the two little brothers have never seen so much money when they grow up, and the dowry of 50 taels is the best. The whole family of one family in the village has a family business!

And the last time he went to the Lin family to propose a marriage, he spent no less than this time. Last time, it cost nearly 20 taels for a scalper alone. Mr. Xiang seems to be a little not good at living. He always likes to send money outside.

But no matter what the two little brothers think, Wu Qingyuan is very happy and straightforward in buying, and he will not hesitate to spend money.

Everything can be saved, but you must not be stingy about this kind of thing. These things are just the most basic things. The real dowry for Brother Zhou will come later...

"Brother Wu, this way!"

While walking in the street, Wu Qingyuan suddenly heard someone calling him.

Turning around, he saw a few big men in fur coats in the small restaurant across the street waving and shouting at him with a surprise smile. Immediately, his face also showed joy, and he took Brother Zhou, A Mo and Lin Tianbao and walked quickly. In the past, into the restaurant.

A few big men greeted them to sit down, and asked Xiao Er to add some bowls and chopsticks and some side dishes.

"Brother Jiang, why are you here? Is the business going well?"

After sitting down, Wu Qingyuan greeted with a smile. These big men were none other than the team of ship merchants he met on the Grand Canal when he was crossing. Can meet again.

"Smooth and smooth, with the things you taught us, brother Wu, our boat is safe this time, and nothing happened even when we arrived at the Devil River. Brother Wu, how are you doing now..."

The big man he called Brother Jiang was also very happy to see him. They often encountered difficulties when they went out to do business, especially the journey on the sea and the river was very frightening. If something happened, the loss of goods was considered small, but the loss of life was not. It is cost-effective, some modern navigation techniques taught by Wu Qingyuan are of great help to them.

Laughing and patting Wu Qingyuan on the shoulder, the big man's eyes fell on Brother Zhou and Amo on his left and right. Seeing that the two were sitting very close to him, he couldn't help laughing.

"These two are the inner monarchs? Hahaha, brother Wu, I haven't seen you in half a year, how lucky you are."

You can't blame the big man for making wild guesses on his own initiative. Generally, little brothers will not hang out with a man alone on the street. Unless they are engaged or married, they will be gossiped, and the relationship between the three of them After sitting down, the distance is also very close. It is not difficult to see that the relationship should be very close, so the big man made fun of it like this.

Brother Zhou and Amo are little brothers, so it’s not easy to talk directly to big guys. I’m sorry, but Lin Tianbao is also a child. Seeing a few people, the big guy is afraid of being quiet and started to be a good child. Wu Qingyuan smiled and took the initiative Explain the introduction.

"Brother Jiang was joking. I forgot to introduce you. This is Axi, my cousin. He is the family member I am looking for. This is Amo. He is the rightful gentleman that I have never met. This is Tianbao, Amo's." younger brother."

After speaking, he introduced to Amo and the others, "Amo, Axi, these are the caravans that I came to Shiqiao Town by boat. Brother Jiang and the others have saved my life. Can't reach Shiqiao Town..."

"Brother Jiang, everyone."

The two greeted each other politely.

Lin Tianbao also obediently called his uncle a few times. The children were very cute, and the rough guys in the caravan took out their candies and snacks and gave them to him.

After a brief introduction, the man started chatting. Amo was usually lively, but he knew the occasion and didn't interrupt. He sat quietly with Brother Zhou, eating and listening to them.

Here Wu Qingyuan chatted happily with the people in the caravan. They didn't know each other for only a month on the ship, but they hit it off very well.

According to Jiang Da and others, they originally planned to go back before the Chinese New Year, but this year the river in Shiqiao Town has frozen ahead of time, and the boats cannot sail. They can only return to their hometown after the ice melts in the spring of next year.

"Hey, this year I have to go out for the New Year again. My wife was only pregnant when I left, and she promised to go home as soon as the baby landed. Now it seems that it won't work..."

Jiang Da and the others lamented that their hometown is far away, and they usually go out for more than half a year each time, and stay at home for only one or two months. .

"Brother Jiang, don't worry, my sister-in-law always understands you, so what are your plans for these few months?"

Wu Qingyuan comforted.

"It's like this, to tell you the truth, Brother Wu, we can't go back now that the river is frozen, so I discussed it with my brothers, and I might as well go back later, go to the Sith country, and exchange some gems, agates and spices... ..."

Jiang Da no longer concealed it, and revealed his and others' plans.

The purpose of their business is to make money. They try their best to exchange goods from various countries and earn the price difference. Now the river in Shiqiao Town is frozen and they cannot return. It will take several months for the ice to melt. , naturally can't just wait in Shiqiao Town like this, wasting time in vain.

Therefore, after discussing with the members of the caravan, they decided to go to the Sith country again. Anyway, it was too late, so it was better to delay going home for a few more months.

The country of Sith is not far from the border of Xia Kingdom, and the round-trip journey plus the time for intermediate goods transactions will take up to three months. The country is rich in gems and spices. If you are lucky, you will definitely make a fortune if you bring it back. Maybe next year They can take a good year off.

It's just... After speaking, Jiang Da suddenly stopped, looked at each other with the rest of the caravan, hesitated, and stared at him hesitantly.

"Brother Jiang, you may as well speak up if you have something to say."

Wu Qingyuan could see that they should have something to say to him.

The author has something to say: I don’t know if you still remember the author’s copywriting "I have made sufficient preparations in modern times, purchased materials, exchanged for gold bars, and traveled with space and abilities..." Brother Ang also There is still no solution to a golden finger of space material
