That afternoon, Luo Dongshu rode back to the barracks.
In addition, the eleven brothers who followed were also driven back to Ping'an Village by Jiang Shuan.
There are still many houses in the village that have not been built, and there are still a lot of land waiting to be reclaimed. A lot of work is waiting for them to do. Jiang Shu'an doesn't want to leave them in the health hall to eat and drink. He rushes back without leaving any land.
As for Jiang Shuan himself, of course, he stayed comfortably in the health hall and continued to live with his daughter.
When he is idle and bored, he will walk around the health hall. If he can help, he will help.
Recently, the business of purchasing mountain products has been booming.
Because Gu Fei's purchase price is 10% higher than that in the town, many people come here to sell mountain goods. Today is no exception. Many villagers came to buy and sell things early in the morning.
They were carrying baskets or sacks, and almost all the goods they unloaded filled the shacks.
Old man Lou works carefully and is old, so the process of inspecting mountain goods is relatively slow.
Song Hao doesn't know how to distinguish the quality of mountain goods. He is only responsible for carrying goods. Other things belong to old man Lou, so he has no intention to intervene, so he stands by and waits.
Several villagers were impatient with waiting.
A short man complained, "I said, old man, can you hurry up? If you delay so much longer, it will be dark. I still have a lot of work to do at home! "
Old Lou is a good tempered man. He doesn't get angry when he is complained. He laughs and says, "sorry, I'm old, my eyes are not good, and I'm a little slow. Please bear with me."
As the saying goes, people who reach out and don't smile. If ordinary people say so when they see a disabled old man, they will be embarrassed to entangle again.
But the short man was indomitable and shouted at the top of his voice, "if your eyes don't work well, don't take this job! As the saying goes, don't do porcelain work without diamond. You don't have the ability to sit here and collect mountain goods. Didn't you deliberately waste everyone's time? "
After hearing this, Xiaofeng is very unhappy. He wants to refute, but he is stopped by old man Lou.
Old Lou shook his head at him and motioned him not to quarrel with each other.
Business is like this. You can meet anyone. It's impossible to quarrel with others when you disagree.
What's more, this is the business of Gu Fei's family. They work for people, so they should be more careful.
Song Hao has the same idea.
He has a strong temper, but he also knows that the scene is different. This is Yunshan village, and the other party is a local. As a villager and a helper, he can't quarrel with customers in love and reason. As long as the other party doesn't do too much, they can only bear it.
Xiaofeng had to shut up and stand beside him angrily, staring at the man with two eyes, full of anger.
Zhuang Zhuang follows him. He is young and doesn't know what happened. He only knows that brother Xiaofeng is unhappy.
He thought for a moment and took a boiled egg out of his pocket.
In order to increase nutrition for the children, Jiang Weiwei specially asked you siniang to cook two eggs for the two small children when she made breakfast every day.
This egg was distributed by Zhuang Zhuang this morning. He didn't eat it. He put it in his pocket and planned to take it out and eat it when he was hungry. At this time, he took it out in advance.
He said softly, "brother Xiaofeng, don't be angry when you eat eggs."
As soon as Xiaofeng saw his clever and sensible appearance, most of his anger dissipated immediately, and a smile appeared on his face.
Xiaofeng took the egg and peeled it off, but he didn't eat it himself, but handed it to Zhuang Zhuang's mouth.
"I ate eggs this morning. I'm not hungry now. You eat them."
Zhuang Zhuang looked at the white, tender and smooth boiled egg and brother Xiaofeng. He was sure that he was not angry. Then he took the egg and broke it in two. He ate half by himself and gave the other half to Mengmeng.
Mengmeng stayed in the health hall for some time, got familiar with everyone, and gradually put down her guard.
In particular, Zhuang Zhuang and Xiaofeng love to play with Mengmeng all day, which makes Mengmeng have a certain sense of trust in them and can accept the food they feed.
Now the two little have also formed a habit. As long as they eat, they will give some to Mengmeng.
Mengmeng opens her mouth, swallows the egg and rubs her strong leg.
Zhuang Zhuang squatted down, hugged it, rubbed it on its furry head, and laughed happily.
Seeing that the two little ones were so close, song Hao couldn't help laughing. He thought that children were really fun. When he married Xiuer in the future, they must have more children.
Old man Lou ignored the man with bad attitude and continued to immerse himself in examining mountain goods.
Every time he checked and accepted a batch of goods, he would settle the payment with the other party on the spot, and song Hao stacked the goods against the wall.
The short man shouted again. Seeing that no one paid attention to him, he had to shut up boring.
He was at the back of the line. When it was his turn, everyone else had sold out of mountain goods and left.
Old man Lou asked him to take out all the mountain goods as usual.
The short man carried two large baskets with a lot of messy goods in them.
He poured out all the goods, then rushed to the building and said to the old man, "these are all excellent goods. You must give me a good price!"
Old man Lou didn't speak. He bent down and picked up all the goods in front of him and checked them carefully.
Most of them are common mountain products, such as hawthorn, chestnut, hazelnut, walnut and so on.
Old man Lou narrowed his eyes and found a small wormhole on the chestnut shell. He pinched it and found that the chestnut meat inside had turned black and moldy, and insects were drilling around.
He frowned and pinched many chestnuts one after another. Only one or two of the ten chestnuts were good, and the others were all bad.
Not only chestnuts, hazelnuts and walnuts are almost the same. Most of them are bitten by insects and moldy.
Hawthorn is better, there is nothing bad, but it is too small. At first glance, it is the kind of hawthorn with a particularly large core and few fruit meat. Let alone sell it, even if it is given away, it may not be wanted.
Old man Lou put down the goods, pulled the nearby handkerchief, wiped his hands, shook his head and said, "you can't take these goods. We can't take them. Take them back."
When the short man heard this, he was immediately unhappy.
He said in a vicious voice: "bad old man, I'm afraid you're dazed. How dare you say that my goods are not good? These are good goods that I worked hard to get from the mountains. It took me a lot of effort. Now you want to send me away if you can't? No way! "
