Now that she's single, it's normal for you, Brother Mu, to come and ask for her hand in marriage.
It's just that we came back late. If we had come back two years earlier, we would have met Ah Ye's aunt sooner.
What need is there for Scholar Qi then?
"The young lady of the Chi family is yours, Brother Mu, and that child, who is less than two months old, is also yours, Brother Mu..."
Qin Mu never said "what if" and rarely made assumptions about the past.
Upon hearing this, and knowing that the other person meant well, he immediately said:
"Stop saying such useless things, hurry up and move the grain properly and wrap it in oilcloth."
The rain is getting heavier, and I wonder what the situation is like in Chijia'ao.
I'm thinking of opening a general store in Chijia'ao.
There's still a lot to prepare; I need to go out for a trip.
According to Chi Yu, this rain marks the beginning of a natural disaster.
Therefore, unless there are special circumstances, she will not come down the mountain.
Chijia'ao is at a high altitude, and it is not easy to go up or down the mountain.
Although the Chi family had prepared a lot of food and salt beforehand, they probably didn't have enough other daily necessities.
If this natural disaster lasts for a long time, and the lives of other families on the mountain become difficult, it will definitely affect them.
Rather than doing that, he might as well prepare everything he needs and open a general store there.
If the young lady of the Chi family is willing, then we will sell all the items to her at cost price.
That would outweigh the credit for her giving advance notice.
If you don't want to, then hire her to help watch the shop and pay her a fixed monthly salary.
Anyway, for that general store, he only needs to prepare a year's worth of supplies.
A year has passed, so the natural disasters should be over by now, right?
If not, we'll find a way to restock later!
Thinking this, Qin Mu went out to buy things this time, and when he returned, he was followed by four carriages.
This meant that what he initially planned to do with only one car went up the mountain turned into five cars when he set off the next day.
The amount of grain in the carriage was tripled from what was originally promised to Ikeno.
As for the salt, he used his connections to transport 100 jin (50 kg) of it.
Of these 100 jin (50 kg), 70% is coarse salt used for pickling.
In addition, there were flint, lamp oil, needles and thread, and pale yellow coarse cloth.
There are two types of coarse cloth: kudzu cloth and linen cloth.
The quantities weren't large; only six of each type were taken.
Of course, there are also some soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, maltose, common pastries, wooden bowls, porcelain bowls, and the like.
There are two types of liquor among them, both of which are inexpensive sorghum liquor and millet liquor.
Considering the difficulty of catching the sea at Chijia'ao and the amount of alcohol the men could drink, Qin Mu managed to transport fifty jars of these two types of wine, each weighing ten jin (5 kg).
In other words, 500 jin of wine alone were transported.
Chi Yu never dreamed that one day she and Qin Mu would be on the same wavelength.
When Qin Mu arrived by car with Shen Kai, people were already asking her about opening a general store.
Of course, there were quite a few people who went to Ikeno to register, as their families needed to sell charcoal.
Unlike Anping County, where it started raining the day before, it rained a whole day later in Chijia'ao.
And then, a torrential downpour began.
While everyone else was busy burning charcoal or planting vegetables, Chi Yu and Chi Qiao were sprouting bean sprouts and curing bacon.
