"Good boy, it's enough for the master to know that you have the intention. I guess I need to observe for a while, you can go back anytime.
"Master doesn't want anything in return, just that you'll be well in the future. I'll leave you an address before I leave, and you'll just have to try to keep in touch."
Wu Dayong looked at Yu Qinghai with satisfaction. He had several apprentices, but he was very satisfied with this one.
He is very hardworking and a good talent. If you cultivate him well, his future will be longer than mine.
After saying that, Yu Qinghai went to pack his things. What he didn't know was that his father had hunted a wild boar and was coming to town again.
Yu Qinghai planned to rest for another night and go back the next day.
Yu Qingqing simply picked out the impurities from the herbs and washed them briefly with a little water. She kept a small portion of the herb "Motherwort" and tied the rest into five large bundles.
Then I kept five chicken mushrooms for making soup tonight, and the remaining twenty were placed in a relatively clean place to dry.
There was also "Vialette", a small portion of which was left, and the rest were tied up.
Then he secretly took out a big, white and tender radish from the space and said later that he had found it from the wild boar. I forgot to mention it.
Haha, I am really smart, Yu Qingqing praised herself in her heart.
"Mom, there's this radish. I found it while hunting wild boars, but it only has the roots." Yu Qingqing said as she took out the radish in front of Yu Qingshu.
"Qing'er, you really dug it up, I didn't even notice it." Yu Qingshu asked Yu Qingqing a little puzzled.
"Yes, Dad, I put it in the backpack. It might have been covered by the herbs, so it's normal that you didn't see it.
While the pork is still fresh, let's go to town and sell it. I just happened to be selling some herbs too, and I don't know how much the grain prices have increased."
Yu Qingqing changed the subject again, sorted out the things and put them in the backpack.
"Okay, my daughter, you have to go quickly, otherwise it will be too late and it will be difficult to buy food."
Yu Qingshu also started to take action, but when the father and daughter were about to reach the village entrance, they met the village chief He Qiang.
"Village chief, have you bought the grain? How much is the grain price now?" Yu Qingshu saw the village chief and asked.
"Oh, this is a wild boar, it's so big? Are you going to sell it? Now the grain is 11 cents per catty, brown rice is 13 cents per catty, and rice is sold at 20 cents.
What should I do? There are still many people lining up in the town. As the organizer, I bought more than 6,300 kilograms of brown rice.
Basically, every family can afford more than 100 kilograms. Those with more money can get more, and those with less money can get less.
We really can’t afford corn anymore,” He Qiang said worriedly.
"If you want to buy food, go quickly, otherwise the price will go up." He Qiang didn't believe it but kindly reminded him.
"Qing'er, it looks like we have to take a bullock cart. It's faster, but we might have to buy on credit first.
Daddy only has two cents your mother gave him." It's true that a good cook cannot cook without rice, and a penny can make a hero fail.
"It's okay, Dad will be rich soon." Yu Qingqing comforted him. Although she herself was not sure about this, there was always hope, right?
"Okay, Daddy's good daughter." After saying this, Yu Qingshu quickly walked to the village entrance.
There are usually ox carts and other people here, all of whom are from the village. After all, it can be considered a business.
"Hey! Niu Xiaoer! I have something to discuss with you! The two of us are going to town, and we only have two cents.
How about you take us there first, and when we come back you'll still be there, and I'll pay you for the ride after I sell the wild boar meat?"
Yes, the ox cart driver was Niu Xiaoer. Seeing that they were all from the village, he knew them all, so he agreed.
"It's okay, Brother Yu, you guys come up! Just give it to me when the time comes."
Niu Xiaoer was quite sensible. With wild boar meat, why would he worry about not having enough money? Besides, he was from the village, and Brother Yu was an honest man; he wouldn't delay the payment for too long.
Soon half an hour passed and they arrived in the town. Niu Xiaoer took them directly to the back door of "Yunzhou Restaurant".
Yu Qingshu didn't like to owe favors to others, so he promised to give him an extra penny for the ride later.
It was a convenient thing to do, so Niu Xiaoer was naturally very happy to earn an extra penny.
"Who are you looking for? What's going on?" Yu Qingshu knocked on the door, and a middle-aged man came out. He looked unfamiliar. He didn't recognize Yu Qingshu either.
"Hello! I'm looking for Manager Huang." Yu Qingshu didn't mention the specific matter when he saw that he was not an acquaintance.
"Shopkeeper Huang has been on leave for the past few days, so I'm temporarily replacing him. If you have anything to say, can you tell me?
I saw a wild boar behind you, right? You're a hunter who supplies game to the restaurant, right?"
The middle-aged man looked behind and guessed.
"Yes, that's fine! Can you weigh it and see how much it can be sold for?"
Yu Qingshu is still very sensible. After all, he is the spokesperson of the financial sponsor and cannot be offended.
"Alright! Waiter, bring a scale over here, and have a few more people weigh this wild boar.
It just so happens that Mr. Liu is celebrating his 60th birthday in a few days, so it would be perfect for us to save the wild boar's internal organs and send the meat to him."
The middle-aged man shouted to the waiter inside. Then he said.
“I don’t know how Manager Huang conducted the transaction with you before, but he has handed over the job to me and will not treat you unfairly.
The current market price of pork is 25 wen per catty. As for wild boar, I will add the offal and charge a total of 24 wen per catty for you. How about that?
Although it’s wild game, wild boar meat isn’t as tender as domestic pig meat, is that okay?”
"No problem, thank you so much." Yu Qingshu was delighted after hearing this. He didn't expect that the price of wild boar could be sold at such a high price.
"The shopkeeper's total is 150 jin, which costs 3,600 wen."
There was a waiter nearby, clacking away on an abacus, and finally quoting a price.
"Okay, this is three thousand six hundred coins, the silver and the goods are settled."
The middle-aged man took out three small silver coins and six strings of silver coins, one string worth one hundred coins, which was exactly three taels and six hundred coins.
"No problem, thank you!" Yu Qingshu smiled happily after taking the silver.
He carefully placed the silver in his purse and felt around for it. Once he was sure it was all there, he felt relieved.
It was the first time that Yu Qingqing, who was standing next to her, saw a real tael of silver. It was indeed similar to what was shown in TV dramas.
Yu Qingshu put the silver away and prepared to go to the largest pharmacy in town with his daughter.
Just as they turned around and returned to the front of the restaurant from the back door, an accident happened.
A couple of carriages came galloping down the road, the stalls nearby were scattered on the ground, and hurried shouts came from the crowd.
