Chapter 647 Potato Flour Business is Booming
Fortunately, nothing happened all the way back to the border.
It was already early May when we set foot on the land of Xuanning County.
"Brother Wan, we say goodbye here. I hope we will meet again in the future." Yuwen Song finally escorted the person to the destination, which meant he had completed Wan Xingmo's entrustment. He had to hurry back to the border to ask Wan Xingmo for the reward, as he couldn't wait any longer.
"Master Yuwen, we'll meet again later. Thank you for your escort along the way."
Fubao had secretly told Wan Laoer that these two people were the ones who would escort them back to the border.
Seeing that the other party had seen through his purpose, Yu Wensong smiled heartily: "Brother Wan, it was Wan Xingmo who asked me to escort you. You can thank him later. Although he didn't let me say it, I think you should always know who is helping you secretly."
Neither Wan Laoer nor Fubao thought that it was someone sent by Wan Xingmo. Wan Laoer was instantly moved.
Mo'er is thousands of miles away, but he still cares about the safety of the father and daughter. How can this not move people?
"Please tell my friend, Master Yuwen, that I will come to thank you."
Yuwen Song climbed onto his horse and waved his hand, "Brother Wan, I will definitely pass on your message. Little sister, we will say goodbye now."
Wan Laoer looked at Yuwensong and Xiaotao's receding backs and waved his hands continuously.
"Dad, stop waving. No one can be seen anymore. Let's go back quickly, shall we?"
Fubao was extremely excited when he saw the familiar land.
"Hey, here I come."
After traveling for another half a day, they finally arrived at the county seat of Xuanning County.
Wan Laoer looked at the big words "Xuanning County" and couldn't help but burst into tears.
"My daughter, we are finally home." Wan Laoer grew up and after many twists and turns, he finally came to the border to settle down. This is where his family made their fortune and it is also the place where he feels most secure. In his heart, this is his real home.
"Wow, Daddy, we are finally in Xuanning County. Sister Banxia, Sister Baizhi, come and have a look. This is where my big brother's daddy lives. We will go to my eldest uncle's house first, and you will be able to see my big brother's daddy and eldest aunt."
Fubao had never heard Wanquan call Shen "Mom", so she would not take the initiative to introduce Shen to the two of them.
"Miss, I've heard people say that the border is cold and desolate, but along the way we've been traveling, it's not like what everyone says. Except for the dust being more, the wind being stronger, and the fewer trees, I haven't felt anything else." Banxia said truthfully. It might be because they had been sitting in the carriage and didn't have a deep perception of the outside world.
"Sister Banxia, don't worry. You still have a lot of time to integrate into this place. When you return to Shizi Village with me, you will find that our village is more interesting."
Fubao was getting a little impatient as he spoke, but since they had already arrived in the county town, it would be close to home.
"Dad, please come to the city quickly. I miss the mutton soup in our county town."
"Okay, girls, sit tight, Daddy will go into the city soon."
They had four carriages in total. When they passed the city gate, the soldiers guarding the city recognized Wan Laoer at a glance.
"Hey, isn't this Brother Wan Er? You are finally back. Our boss has been coming to the city gate every day for the past six months to inquire about your news."
"Go and tell the boss that Brother Wan Er is back." The soldier immediately said to someone next to him.
Wan Lao Er quickly shouted: "Don't bother, I'll go to his house right away."
The officers and soldiers exchanged pleasantries with Wan Laoer for a while, and Wan Lao gave the two of them some of the specialties he brought back from Texas. Since they were all acquaintances, he did them a favor.
The two officers and soldiers smiled from ear to ear, accepted Wan Laoer's gift, and let it go without checking.
After Wan Laoer's carriage went far away, the two looked at Wan Laoer's convoy and said, "It seems that they brought a lot of things back this time. I wonder if they went out to do business. With so many carriages, it seems that they made a lot of money."
"Of course, Wanjia's potato flour is in short supply now, and it's all snatched up. How much money do you make in a day?"
Wan Lao Er drove the carriage to Wan Lao Da's house, but to get to Wan Lao Da's house, he had to pass through the main street.
It was not yet lunchtime, but a long line had already formed in front of a shop. The border in May was not very hot, and everyone was chatting while queuing, not in a hurry.
"Oh, whose business is this? Why is it so good?" Wan Laoer was a little surprised. He remembered that when he left the county, there seemed to be no shop opened with such good business.
He drove the carriage away from the crowd and moved slowly forward.
Three heads appeared on the window of the carriage. They were Fubao, Banxia and Baizhi.
The three of them also looked at the long queue curiously.
"I have never seen such a prosperous shop in Texas. What does this shop sell?"
Banxia was also very curious.
Finally, the carriage reached the end of the long line, and Wan Laoer saw a few large characters written on the shop's plaque: "Wan Ji Potato Flour."
Wan Laoer was petrified on the spot, potato flour?
If he remembered correctly, this potato flour business was theirs, right? He had been gone for half a year, and the potato flour business hadn't opened when he left. But now the shop had opened in Xuanning?
Wan Laoer didn't have time to think about it, he quickly jumped off the carriage, lifted up his robe and ran quickly to the shop. He felt a little nervous and excited.
But as soon as he ran to the door of the shop and wanted to go in, he was stopped by an unfamiliar clerk.
The waiter said politely, "Sir, our store is not open yet. Please go to the back and queue up."
"Yes, go to the back and line up. We have been waiting for more than half an hour. You still want to cut in line? Hurry up and leave."
The people queuing behind him also thought that Wan Laoer came to eat potato noodles and expressed their dissatisfaction.
"I'm not here to eat. I want to ask, who is your shopkeeper?"
The waiter smiled and said, "Sir, our shopkeeper is of course Wan. Didn't you see it? It's written on the plaque, Wanji Potato Flour, and Wan is the family name of our shopkeeper."
"So is your shopkeeper Wan Shuang or Wan Jin Hai?"
Wan Laoer couldn't imagine that besides Wan Shuang and Wan Laosi, there would be someone else in the Wan family to manage the potato noodle shop.
The waiter continued smiling and said, "Sir, do you know our shopkeeper Wan Shuang?"
When Wan Laoer heard the waiter say it was Wan Shuang, the uneasiness in his heart disappeared and was replaced by great surprise. The potato flour business was much better than he had imagined.
"Go tell Wan Shuang that his second uncle is back."
The young man then looked at Wan Lao Er carefully, wondering, wasn't the shopkeeper's second uncle the owner of the shop? He always heard the shopkeeper talk about what would happen when his second uncle came back. So this person was the second uncle that the shopkeeper talked about every day?
The young man did not dare to hesitate and was very smart. He quickly invited Wan Laoer in.
