Chapter 25 County Purchase (2/2)



Qian Chunhua just looked at the salt carefully. They were all refined salt and looked almost the same as the salt he had stored.

Arriving at the meat stall, Qian Chunhua bought two and a half catties of pork for a total of fifty cents.

After finishing the shopping, Qian Chunhua prepared to go home.

On the way to the village, Qian Chunhua continued to think about how he could make money, since he couldn't explain the source of the materials in his own space.

When he was almost at the entrance of the village, Qian Chunhua found an empty corner and put down his backpack.

Take out an iron pot, a casserole, five bowls, five plates and a pack of chopsticks from the space.

After putting these into the backpack, he took out a large piece of fat meat from the space, which weighed five pounds.

In this age of material scarcity, everyone likes oily things. As their bodies are lacking in nutrition, Qian Chunhua now also likes fatty meat.

But at the butcher's shop just now, the fat meat was expensive, costing thirty cents per pound, while the five-grain pork was only fifteen cents per pound.

Qian Chunhua only bought five-lobed meat, since there was plenty of fat meat in the space anyway.

After taking the big piece of fat meat, Qian Chunhua took out ten kilograms of rice and poured it into the cloth bag he had prepared in advance. Qian Chunhua still threw the plastic bag containing rice into the space.

Then take out ten kilograms of flour and pour it into the bag. Then take out one kilogram of salt and mix it into the bag that just contained the salt.

Then he took out another ten pounds of brown sugar, preparing to keep two pounds for his mother to drink, and to go to the village chief's and the clan leader's homes in the evening to express his gratitude and use another four pounds.

The remaining 150g of brown sugar was left to Uncle Lu. He and his companions had 150g in total, so Qian Chunhua didn't care how to distribute it.

If you want to build a house quickly and tall, some small favors are indispensable.

The backpack was filled to the brim. Looking at the supplies in the backpack, Qian Chunhua smiled. She could finally give some money to her parents' home.

Qian Chunhua prepared to carry the backpack and go home.

"Ta-da-da..." The sound of horse hooves came from the front.

I saw three horses galloping past on the official road, stirring up clouds of dust.

Qian Chunhua quickly turned his back and almost swallowed a mouthful of dust.

"Clack, clack, clack..." The sound of horse hooves came from behind again.

“Oh…”

Qian Chunhua turned around curiously and saw the three horses that had just passed by turning around and coming back again.

"Auntie, how far is it from here to Nanzhou County?" asked a man in tight clothes on a horse, looking down at Qian Chunhua.

Qian Chunhua pointed at herself, unable to believe that she was already an aunt at the age of 18.

"Auntie, Auntie." Seeing that Qian Chunhua did not answer, the other two men also shouted.

Qian Chunhua complained in his heart, you are still uncles, don’t you look at the wrinkles on your face?

"It's still ten miles away from the county town." Qian Chunhua replied in a sullen tone.

The man in tight clothes continued to ask: "Auntie, is there a tea shop nearby?"

Qian Chunhua: “No.”

"Thank you very much."

"There aren't even any road signs along the way. I don't know what the court is doing day in and day out." A man in tight clothes complained dissatisfiedly.

"Stop talking nonsense." The older man in tight clothes stopped him.

After the three men bowed and thanked him, they rode away, raising another cloud of dust.

Qian Chunhua looked at the backs of the three people and no longer cared about the dust in the air.

"Yes, the tea shop."
