At this time, Datou came over from the other end of the street, picked up a persimmon, his eyes sparkling, and said loudly: "Wow, I can finally buy persimmons again!"
He pretended to take a closer look and said even louder, "Looks like it's bigger than the one my parents bought me last year, and the skin feels thinner."
When the man saw the children next to him said so, he believed it. He thought that children would not lie to him, so he bought a pound.
In fact, all of this was a plan that Mai Wu and Datou had discussed in advance, and they just wanted to put on such a show.
Make others believe it, one person comes to buy, two people come to buy, and gradually more and more people come to buy.
As more people bought it, no one bothered about not getting a free half-pound gift. As long as it tasted good, that was all that mattered.
Many people are selling sweet potatoes, and they sell them directly according to the market price. The key is that there is only one basket of sweet potatoes because they are planted in small quantities.
After three days, all the persimmons and sweet potatoes were sold out.
The persimmon cakes were all dried in the sun and the wheat had been harvested. Mai Wu began to calculate the money he had earned in the past few days and also calculated the money he had spent.
After the persimmon cakes were made, they were taken to Tongji Hall and sold there.
These days, the rookie Mai Wu has been very busy. Every time he opens his eyes, he thinks about what he is going to do that day. Before going to bed at night, he starts thinking about what he has not completed. He is extremely nervous. He is really afraid that he will not do well, so he can only work harder.
After spending a whole morning calculating the accounts for the past few days, I went to report to my boss.
After Jiang Tuantuan listened to him telling her everything that had happened in the past few days, she praised him with satisfaction and asked how much he spent on the clothes.
"Eight hundred coins."
Jiang Tuantuan took out two taels and eight hundred coins and gave them to Mai Wu. "Two taels is your monthly salary, and eight hundred coins is for buying clothes."
My Maiwule is broken. The price has increased again. That’s great, but why should I be given the money for buying clothes?
Jiang Tuantuan said calmly, "The four of them are also members of my Jiang family. Of course, I will cover these expenses. From now on, you will need to calculate the total monthly salary and give it to me, and make a list of necessary expenses for me."
Necessary expenses such as the cost of delivering mail, winter clothes, etc., do you understand?
Mai Wu understood.
Jiang Tuantuan asked, "Do you have any plans for the back mountain?"
This confused Mai Wuwen. What is planning?
Jiang Tuantuan patiently explained, "There's a lot of wasteland in the back mountain. We can grow ginger and sweet potatoes on these wastelands, plant more trees, and raise more chickens. All of this needs to be done step by step. You need to think carefully about how to take better care of the back mountain."
"You can open up a few more acres of wasteland to grow ginger and sweet potatoes, or plant some fruit trees. It's all up to you."
Mai Wu felt that his responsibilities were growing, but he was also becoming more and more excited.
Jiang Tuantuan said, "If you want to do well in the long run, you must understand reason. Now that you can read, you should read more of the Four Books and Five Classics, such as The Analects, The Great Learning, and The Doctrine of the Mean."
Mai Wu remembered it deeply. Because of Jiang Tuantuan's appearance, Mai Wu's life was completely changed.
Mai Feng and Madden finally finished the silver lock. Yu Bao put on his own silver lock and was so happy that he kept shaking his body. When he shook his body, the small beads on the silver lock collided with each other and he had a lot of fun.
In a blink of an eye, it was late autumn and the day to go to the capital had arrived. The people Li Jingchen found from the escort agency also arrived.
The luggage was packed, but Jiang An was nowhere to be found. Jiang Li said, "He must have gone to the fields outside the city to paint."
Jiang Tuantuan asked Jiang An to bring Jiang Li back quickly.
When he came back, Jiang An was still holding the unfinished painting in his hand.
"Xiao An'an, why did you suddenly go out of town to paint again?"
Hearing his sister yell like that, Jiang An got goose bumps. "It's harvest time now, everyone is harvesting wheat in the fields. This scene gives me a sense of prosperity. I think I have to paint it."
"Okay, Xiao An'an, we're leaving tomorrow, so don't run around."
Jiang An kept saying yes, and he didn't run away again. No matter how old he grew, his sister's pressure would always be that great.
Before the sun rose, Jiang Tuantuan and his group met the Zhou family at the city gate.
There were three carriages in total, one for Mr. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou, one for the eldest son of Zhou, and one for Rou'er. There were also a bunch of carts behind them with boxes of various sizes tied to them, which looked very grand.
Jiang Tuantuan's side had very little. Although there were also three carriages, five adults and one child could only fit the things on one cart, but there was also a sheep leading behind.
It is in stark contrast to the Zhou family.
When Rou'er saw Jiang Tuantuan coming, she jumped off the car and ran to her carriage with the candied haws.
"Sister Tuantuan, you're finally here. Here are some candied haws I brought you. Come eat them, they're delicious!"
Jiang Tuantuan took it with a smile. Yubao looked at the candied haws in wonder and stretched out his hand to eat it, but he was only one year old and couldn't eat it yet.
So he was rejected by Jiang Tuantuan cruelly. Yubao started crying out of grievance. Rouer tried to comfort him, but it was no use.
Jiang Tuantuan directly threw Yubao to Jiang Li and Jiang An.
Sitting in the carriage and eating happily with Rou'er, Jiang An felt that his sister was so heartless, but Jiang Tuantuan felt that it was even more cruel to let him watch but not be able to eat.
The carriage began to move forward with a swaying sound. Because there were too many goods, it moved very slowly. The elves kept making ding-dong sounds along the way, and there were many plants and animals that were not included.
At noon, we found a place to stop and started to make a fire and cook.
Jiang Tuantuan brought some pickled vegetables, porridge, and some bread, which can be eaten after heating up.
Yubao's meal was goat's milk, because Jiang Tuantuan had weaned him off breast milk early on.
After finishing the meal, they had to rest for a while before setting off again. Jiang Tuantuan followed the instructions of the elf to pick grass and catch animals.
We didn't catch any animals, but we did find some plants.
Every time he stopped, Jiang Tuantuan would run around to pick up grass. Everyone was surprised to see him at first, but later they got used to it because they were used to it.
Who doesn’t have a special hobby?
"Host, there's a grass that has a very high score, a full 5,000 points!"
Jiang Tuantuan was so excited. What kind of grass is this? It’s so rare. I have to pick some and store it in case I need it one day!
The elf said, "It's crane grass."
Opening the entry for cranesbill, it says that this herb can be used for various types of bleeding, and can be used for cold and heat, and bleeding due to deficiency or excess in various parts of the body.
They looked very good, so Jiang Tuantuan picked a lot of them in one go.
We had walked most of the way and were only one day away from reaching the capital, but suddenly it started to rain heavily with thunder and lightning. Since we were walking on a muddy road, it was easy to slip when the rain came, so we had to wait until the rain stopped before we could continue our journey.
