Chapter 93

Along the way, Ding Qiyu could only find ways to earn money in order to keep himself busy.Because the time for the passenger ship to dock on the way is very short, Ding Qiyu decided to make some small things on board, mainly wooden mechanism toys, beautiful mechanism decorations and the like. When the passenger ship docked in a large town, they would bring these to the people. It is a very rare thing to sell in the city.The gadgets made by Ding Qiyu are very popular with rich ladies and children, and the cost is extremely low, and she has earned a lot of money along the way, without using the "startup funds" she brought out at the beginning, she can already make Let yourself and your subordinates live comfortably in food and clothing.

Every night, as long as she is free, she will still feel sad and sad. Ai Xi'er has loved for so long and so deeply, but in the end she returned to being alone again.There were too many tears, the pain became numb, and this burning heart could only be buried by her own hands.Now that Xi'er has made a choice, she shouldn't be entangled anymore, she shouldn't have unreasonable thoughts, sinking into irreversible pain is not Ding Qiyu's character, so she chooses to regard this relationship as a beautiful past and a difficult one. Healed old wounds are deeply buried in the bottom of my heart.

After sailing for more than [-] days, the boat finally arrived at Yinzhou Wharf safely.Ding Qiyu packed his luggage carefully, and was about to ask Master to get off the boat, but he knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered, he opened the door and went in, and saw the letter on the table, there were only a few words on the letter: "Farewell, see you again." It turned out that as soon as the boat docked, the old man got off the boat as fast as he could to find the truth he wanted to find.

After such a farewell, I really don't know if there will be a chance to see you again. Ding Qiyu felt a little sad, and after calming down for a while, he and her four "men" got off the boat together.New place, new career, she has to face it with the best appearance, right?

As soon as they got off the boat, they were shocked by the sight in front of them. Merchant ships and passenger ships of various sizes lined up side by side for thousands of miles.On the wharf, laborers loading goods for cargo ships and passing business travelers jostled shoulder to shoulder.Yinzhou's functional focus is obviously different from that of Xingcheng. Xingcheng is the political and military center of Ganbei, and the general's mansion is located in it. Although Xingcheng is also very lively and prosperous, most of the shops in the city are owned by the Lu family. The needs of the people in the surrounding northern towns.And Yinzhou is a well-known commercial capital of Dagan. Dagan's commercial giant Jiangnan Fu's family and the large and small chambers of commerce attached to the Fu's family are all located here. It can be said that they almost control the commercial lifeline of the entire Dagan, so Yinzhou's water transportation is so good. so prosperous.

He Ankang and the three carpenters were very excited, and they had great expectations for Yinzhou's life.Ding Qiyu was not moved by the lively scene in front of her. What she wanted to see was the Jiangnan in the past.Yinzhou did not disappoint Ding Qiyu either. It was located in the south of the Dagan Yujiang River, and its climate and landforms were indeed almost the same as the Jiangnan in Ding Qiyu's previous world.Several people left the busy pier, and as the crowd entered Yincheng, Yi finally unveiled her veil.Smoked willows and painted bridges, wind curtains and emerald curtains, there are 10 families.It's like walking into a poem, weeping willows, small bridges and stone roads, pavilions, pavilions and awning boats, everything is the beauty of poetry.

The city is also bustling and bustling. It seems to be sunny after the rain. The sun shines through the weeping willows and jumps out of the sparkling river, falling on the faces of passers-by, lighting up the smiles all over the street.Ding Qiyu's mood was also affected, and he began to vaguely look forward to the days to come.

However, Yin Cheng immediately posed a problem for them. They wanted to find an inn to stay in. Unexpectedly, after asking, several inns were full. Ding Qiyu and his legs hurt from shopping, and they finally divided into three groups to live in. In the three different inns, Ding Qiyu was really curious. Could it be that there are so many people staying in the inns in Yinzhou on weekdays?The inn industry obviously needs more investment!While the waiter was delivering the food, Ding Qiyu stopped him and said curiously: "Second brother, have you always had so many tourists coming and going in Yinzhou? It's really not easy to find an inn!"

The clerk was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then he smiled and asked back: "I don't think the guest officer is like a businessman. Isn't it because of the Jingyue Festival that you came to Yinzhou at this time?"

"Jing... Moon Festival?" Ding Qiyu shook his head, "I'm sorry, this is the first time I've come to Yinzhou, and I haven't heard of Jingyue Festival. Please tell me about it." Ding Qiyu motioned the waiter to sit down.

The guy has a good attitude and is an enthusiastic person. He took advantage of the situation and sat opposite Ding Qiyu, and said: "Then the guest officer must be from the north. Generally, only the guest officers from the north will not know about the Jingyue Festival. People from Qianzhong and Qiannan The people will celebrate the Jingyue Festival! The Jingyue Festival is the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month every year, the first full moon in autumn, and the day when Fairy Jingyue descends to earth."

"July [-]th?" Ding Qiyu was a little confused, "July [-]th is not a ghost..." Before he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that this place is Dagan. Although many customs are the same as before, it is normal for them to be different.

The guy suddenly started talking: "Yes, July [-]th. The Jingyue Festival in Yindu is the most lively and beautiful! On the day of the Jingyue Festival, there will be fireworks, lanterns and various performances on the street. And there is no Married girls will go out to visit the garden to pray. Our girls in Yindu are famous for their water spirits! Therefore, the scenery is beautiful and the people are more beautiful. There are so many people who come to Yindu at this time of year. Guest officer, if you arrive tomorrow If you don't, you probably won't be able to find an inn! So if you don't rush to leave, you can stay for the Jingyue Festival in Yinzhou!"

Ding Qiyu nodded, thanked the waiter and sent him out.It's unbelievable that the previous ghost festival in the world has turned into such a beautiful festival.After thinking about it, is it possible to get some novelties and sell them to make money in such a grand festival?It's almost the Jingyue Festival, so I have to hurry up and think about it.

The next day, Ding Qiyu went out early in the morning and called the other four people, planning to find a yard to rent.Because they made up their minds to stay in Yinzhou for a period of time, it was obviously inappropriate to stay in a hotel.Fortunately, Jingyue Festival attracts short-term tourists. Although the inn is full, the yard is still very easy to rent.After searching all morning and looking at several yards, Ding Qiyu readily agreed to rent a yard of suitable size.After cleaning and shopping for an afternoon, the accommodation problem is solved.There were still five days before the Jingyue Festival, and Ding Qiyu didn't dare to delay. During the shopping process, he inquired about the customs of the Jingyue Festival, and decided on a few things to sell that night.

The [-]th day of the seventh lunar month is the first waning day of the new arrival of autumn, and it is a time of prosperity. In Ding Qiyu's former world, people believed that this day was very cloudy and it was the day when the gates of the underworld were opened, so they designated it as a ghost. Festival.But it is obviously different in Dagan. The moon represents "yin" among yin and yang. The people of Dagan believe that the brilliance of the moon is the most bright and holy on this day. , carrying the flower of Qiongyu in her mouth, descended to the world to bring blessings to the people (especially girls), so this day was designated as the "Jingyue Festival".

Jingyue Festival is also the "Daughter's Day" for girls.There is a folk poem in Yinzhou: "The beautiful moon flows through the scenery, and the flying crane holds the jade flower. In autumn, the golden fruit falls, and there is a girl who should live in a house." Girls like to go out on this day and put river lanterns to pray for a happy future. .Naturally, there will be more people looking forward to encountering beauties. Therefore, if we want to compare it with Ding Qiyu's previous world, the Jingyue Festival is more similar to the Qixi Festival, and it completely lacks the horror of "July and a half".

Ding Qiyu came up with a lot of good ideas based on the customs he had inquired about, but because of time constraints, he couldn’t do too many tricks, so he could only choose a few of the most suitable ones: the one with a small organ structure attached to his shoulder, like a crane stopped On the shoulder, there is a small wooden carving of "Flying Crane Holding Flowers" that symbolizes the blessings of fairies; the mechanism toy of cranes, which can flap wings and fly and make sweet sounds by pulling the mechanism behind it back and forth; Various styles of organ lanterns.The wood carvings and mechanism parts were handed over to three small carpenters to make them quickly, and Ding Qiyu was in charge of assembly.Each item is engraved with Ding Qiyu's usual flying feather pattern as the official "trademark".

As soon as the first two items came out, He Ankang asked He Ankang to take them out for a "trial sale" as a warm-up for the festival, and the last lantern was to be sold on the day of the Jingyue Festival.

When designing the lanterns, Ding Qiyu couldn't help but think of the gifts he made for Xi'er and the little crying ghost during the Lantern Festival half a year ago.It's a pity that they couldn't accept the truth, and everything changed in a blink of an eye...

Although He Ankang can't do carpentry, he is cheerful, outgoing, hardworking and down-to-earth, and he does a good job in "sales". The few gadgets designed by Ding Qiyu have good meaning, are quite novel, and are not expensive, so they are very short. Within a short period of time, it quickly became popular in Yinzhou City.Ding Qiyu and the three carpenters were too busy making goods. He Ankang had to deliver goods several times a day, and every time he went out, he sold out all the goods in less than half an hour. Even so, there were still many customers waiting in line for a long time. None of them were bought.

On the day of the Jingyue Festival, the main thing to be sold was mechanical lanterns. They finished the finished product two days ago, and the three carpenters were gearing up to sell them. Ding Qiyu readily agreed that four people were enough to sell, and he could just go around. Go for a walk and relax.

To commemorate the festival of the moon, the main event is naturally at night. The Yinzhou government also prepared fireworks and lantern car performances to pray for the women in Yinzhou City.As night fell, He Ankang and the three carpenters had already gone out to sell things. Ding Qiyu changed into a moon-white gown and was ready to go out.When he reached the gate of the courtyard, he suddenly turned back, took out a machined lantern from the room, held it in his hand, and went out.

The city of Yinzhou is already full of "moonlight and bright lights". The streets are crowded with people and lively. The lanterns embellish the whole street into a river of stars flowing with light. The sound of burning fireworks is endless.Ding Qiyu looked at the lanterns with cranes circling the moon and flowers carrying blessings in the hands of passers-by, and he could guess that He Ankang and the others must have reaped a lot.

Ding Qiyu sighed with self-mockery: "'I don't see the person from last year, the sleeves of the spring shirt are wet with tears'." She was a little envious of the warm light and warm scene in front of her, and she simply threw away the negative emotions that had grown up in her heart, and merged into the crowd, Follow everyone to see this, stroll that, and experience the festive atmosphere.Squeezed into the crowd to watch performances, enjoy fireworks, and eat delicious food, Ding Qiyu squeezed out in a circle, exhausted himself, and finally squeezed out of the crowd, walked to the edge of a stone bridge and stopped, holding a lantern in one hand, He touched his round belly with one hand and prepared to breathe a sigh of relief.
