Qin Hao's daily life in another world

No matter how trembling and cranky the two children were after hearing Qin Hao's order, the Qin couple in the guest room were quiet, and the two had breakfast in bed with gusto.

The food delivered was thoughtful. There were thick millet porridge and delicious steamed buns. The portions were full, and a jar full of honey water was also sent.

After a good night's sleep, Xu Yi was full of emotions, but his stomach was empty. He didn't need Qin Hao to ask him, and he picked up the bowl and drank the porridge by himself.

Occasionally stuff a small steamed bun into Qin Hao's mouth.

I thought to myself: Mai Mai is a good kid in nature, if he knows his mistakes, he will correct them, there is nothing good about him.

The couple had breakfast calmly, but the three people in the dining hall began to get nervous. Hao Bo had always been a disappointment, and now he was thinking of running away, leaving the two children in the store.

"Xiaomai, you'll be okay with what you messed up. I'm old and I can't stand it. I'm going back to the village first, and I'll come back after they leave."

Ah Sheng and Mai Mai hated iron for being weak, but there was nothing they could do. Judging by the face of the nobleman, they didn't seem to be in trouble, but Hao Bo was as timid as a mouse, and smoother than a loach. When he made money, he laughed and laughed. If you have a problem, spread your hands and run faster than anyone else.

If it weren't for the kindness he had taken in them and the younger ones in the family a few years ago, I would have tied him up and beat him up to vent his anger.

"You go, Asheng and I are fighting, it's not a big deal, I've resisted many times before, it's nothing to be beaten a few times, it's nothing." Mai waved his hand impatiently, letting the old man go, and it's okay to stay. It will only add to the confusion.

Ah Sheng was loyal, and the two of them sat on the chairs in the dining hall, waiting for the arrival of Qin Hao and his wife.

At every moment, after eating and drinking, the well-dressed couple came hand in hand intimately, and saw two children sitting stiffly in the dining hall, with their eyes lowered, as if they were resigned.

Xu Yi was in a good mood, and said with a smile: "Morning, thank you for the breakfast, it's delicious."

Mai Mai is a villain. Seeing Xu Yi's good face, he felt relieved and his eyes rolled up: "My lord thinks it's delicious, so I feel at ease. Your lord told us to wait here. Is there any other order?"

"Didn't you say you want to sell my cherry blossom tree? Where is it and how much is it?" Qin Hao answered slowly.

Mai Mai thought the matter was not over yet, her face darkened a little, thinking she still couldn't escape, she said in a low voice: "My lord, you are still joking about the villain, you don't need money, A Sheng dug up two trees in the morning. , put it at the counter, and take it with you when the nobleman leaves."

Xu Yi glanced at Qin Hao, it seemed that the boss's tone was too aggressive, which misunderstood the two children.

"It's not two. How many do you have? If it's suitable, I can have all of them. The mountain at home is big. I just want to buy some flowers and trees."

Happiness came too suddenly. One second, it looked like an eggplant beaten by frost, and the next second it turned into a winter jasmine. Mai and Asheng were stunned for a moment. After a while, the little clever Mai could not hold back her laughter.

"Really? You have as many as you want. I planted a lot of cherry trees and sunflowers on the mountain behind my house. They are very beautiful. Do you want them? If you want them, you can go to my house. My house is very close. The fragrance will arrive soon, I'm not lying, sunflowers are more beautiful."

After finally waiting for an opportunity, Mai Mai wanted to fight for it no matter what, and was so excited that he forgot to call himself a villain: "My lord, the price is easy to negotiate, and I can decide the price."

Qin Hao saw that it was fun for a kid pretending to be an adult, and the sunflower also aroused his interest, so he took Xu Yi's hand and said in a warm voice: "Since it only takes a stick of incense, let's go and have a look." .”

The mountain road is rugged, and the horse-drawn carriage cannot enter the village. Mai Mai neatly arranges for Ah Sheng to watch the store, and walks back to the village with the couple.

It is said to be a village, but it is actually four or five adobe houses, which have been in disrepair for a long time. The thatch on the roof is yellow and dry, and the adobe walls are crumbling. It is a more miserable, smaller and more remote place than Xujia Village.

What's strange is that the dilapidated houses are surrounded by cherry blossom trees, which are in the flowering season. The flowers are blooming lively, and the wind blows the flowers to fall.

There are densely packed seedlings on the sunny open space, crowded together bustlingly, green and growing freely.

Qin Hao was pleasantly surprised to find that it was actually a large field of sunflower seedlings.

Mai Mai glanced at Hao Bo who was peeking behind the door, shook his head speechlessly, walked to another adjacent yard, and called out: "Little ones, there are visitors at home, hurry up and pour some hot water. "

A bunch of children popped up, the oldest one was in his early ten years old, the youngest was five or six years old, and Xiaomai was the biggest one.

"Brother Mai, we have guests at home, this is the first time we have guests at home."

"Brother Mai, what are the guests doing here? Are you going to sell us?"

"Brother Mai, the guest is so beautiful, like a fairy, is he here to save us?"

A group of children chattered, excited, anxious and looking forward to it.

"Quiet, don't disturb the guests, the guests are here to buy flowers, you go to pour water, don't ask nonsense."

Mai Mai is young, but he has great prestige in the group. With a wave of his little hand, the children shut up obediently, and a few cleverly went back to the house to pour water.

"I'm sorry, nobleman, there are a lot of children in the family, and the younger ones are very obedient and won't make trouble."

Xu Yi has been in a state of bewilderment. It seems that the fate of the young man is more bloody than what he had in his mind before. Now he not only forgave the young man's cunning, but also felt a little pity in his heart.

"Sunflowers only bloom in July and August. They are still seedlings now. I won't lie to you. When the flowers bloom, the flower discs are as big as a washbasin. They are golden. After the flowers bloom, they will bear fruit. The fruits can be fried and eaten. I used to fry them." Give it to me, it’s delicious, but I don’t know how to fry it.”

Mai Mai glanced at Qin Hao, afraid that Qin Hao would not believe him if he didn't see the flowers.

"Xiaocai, go get some sunflower fruits and show them to the nobles. I'm not lying."

Qin Hao knows Sunflower, and knows that this child is indeed not lying. Judging from the current situation, not only is this child not lying, he may still be a good child with a heavy burden.

"It's okay, I believe you, you say the number and the price, if it's right, we'll take it all."

Mai Mai was stunned. He didn't expect it to go so smoothly. He and A Sheng once went to Fucheng to sell flower seedlings, and also sold flower seedlings at the post station. Without exception, they never made a deal. Sometimes when people saw them pitiful, they would throw two Copper plate, but it has never been sold.

"I, I want to discuss it with Asheng, is that okay?" The child finally showed his timidity, and his momentum softened.

Qin Hao knew that this child, Asheng, was a fool, let alone make up his mind, so he suggested, "According to the market price of the flower market, is that okay?"

"Fulang and I are going to Fucheng to do business. We will stay in Fucheng for more than ten days. We can take the saplings when we return. You and Asheng can go to Fucheng Flower Market to find out the market during this period."

Before Qin Hao finished speaking, Mai Mai became a little anxious, fearing that the business would fail. He looked at Xu Yi as if asking for help, gritted his teeth and asked, "My lord, ten yuan per plant? There are more than a thousand cherry blossom trees and sunflowers in the back mountain and surrounding areas. Just count as one thousand plants, ten taels of silver, okay?"

Xu Yi knew that Qin Hao was a bit majestic when he was not smiling, and the child was afraid that he had misunderstood again, so he said softly: "Mai, you will suffer at this price, let's go in and sit down and talk?"

Mai Mai blushed, and hurriedly led the couple into the house. She was so nervous before that she forgot to entertain guests.

The child finally brought two bowls of hot water, Xu Yi and Qin Hao took a sip of them as if nothing had happened, Mai Mai could be seen to be a little more relaxed, the nobleman did not dislike them.

Qin Hao went on to say: "We can pay a deposit of ten taels today, and then pay at the market price on the return trip. Do you think it's okay, kid?"

In a few houses, except for Hao Bo, who is not a young man, there is no adult. Qin Hao couldn't help asking: "Do you need us to talk to the adults at home? Mai."

Mai Mai had just heard that the deposit was ten taels, and was secretly happy, but was shocked by Qin Hao's words of adults, and said in a low voice, "A Sheng and I are the only adults in the family, and the others are children. A Sheng and I agree."

Xu Yi couldn't take it anymore after holding back his words for a long time. He casually touched the little man beside him, who was a bit shorter than Xiao Shan: "Mai, where is your father? There are seven or eight children here who are all your own younger brothers." ?"

Mai Mai smiled heartlessly: "Our parents have all passed away. The shipwreck is so scary. Many people died."

"I used to live by the sea in Fucheng. There were some good neighbors and some bad neighbors. The good neighbors gave food, and the bad neighbors secretly sold fatherless children. We ran away together. Hao Bo took us in. Hao Bo is a good man, although Cowardly and greedy for money, he deducted our wages, but he is still a good person and did not sell children."

Xu Yi was shocked. What kind of devil plot was this? He thought it was miserable enough for him before, but he didn't expect this group of children to be even more miserable.

"Okay, it's good if you can make the decision. Let's write the contract and pay a deposit of ten taels first. Are you literate?" Qin Hao is more rational than Xu Yi, and he didn't show too much emotion. Opportunity is the best help.

Besides, Qin Hao also thought it over, even if the child lied and ran away with the deposit, the saplings planted in the back mountain would not be able to escape, and he would not lose money.

Mai Mai burst into laughter, and said again and again: "I can read, but I can't write well. Please ask the nobleman to write, so I will follow the nobleman's instructions."

Mai sent two children in the early ten years of the family to report to A Sheng, and took home the paper, ink, brush and inkstone by the way.

He and his younger brothers took the two couples to visit the home and the back mountain. For such a big business, the nobles must be assured that they will not run away. Their home is here.

So Xu Yi saw several sets of shabby bedding lined up side by side in the empty dilapidated house, a few thick bowls on the kitchen floor, and the kitchen utensil for boiling water for them just now was an iron pot, the only kitchen utensil in the house.

The back mountain is full of cherry blossoms, and you can't see the end at a glance.

"Mai, did you plant the cherry tree or did it grow in the mountains?" Xu Yi stroked the trunk of the cherry tree. If it was planted by a child, they must have lived here for at least three years.

Wheat supported the nobleman's waist from behind, and replied: "Father left two packets of seeds. At the beginning, I felt very sad, so we planted trees together. After planting, I felt much better. There are many children in the family. After eating, there is no time to be sad."

After a while, Ah Sheng came back after hearing the news, Mai Mai smiled at him, and said happily: "Ah Sheng, we have developed, and the nobleman bought us a thousand saplings with a deposit of [-] taels, so you won't have to worry about it this year, haha."

"Mai Mai, you are amazing!" Ah Sheng smiled foolishly and scratched his head.

Qin Hao wrote the deed, and after showing it to Mai Mai and A Sheng, both parties signed their names and pressed their fingerprints. Xu Yi took out an ingot of ten taels of silver and put it into Mai Mai's hands with a smile.

Mai Mai touched the silver with care and passed it on to A Sheng. The children gathered around, all of them overjoyed, and their little hands sneakily stretched out towards the silver ingot.
