My attribute of fast time travel is upside down

Chapter 532 Farming Shanlihan (97)

Zhang Yi couldn't help chuckling, "This smell is very weak, and it's not something ordinary people can perceive."

These words can't help but make her more puzzled, and the gaze she looks at the man becomes more gloomy.

Ordinary people can't perceive it, so how did he follow the medicine powder to find her?Could it be that he has a dog nose?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at the man's tall nose, looking and curious.

"Fool." Zhang Yi saw through this little thought without any surprise, and suddenly felt the urge to hold his forehead, with an expression full of helplessness: "Okay, stop thinking about it, go quickly."

"Go early and come back early, be careful yourself."

"Oh, good." Qi Xue didn't struggle too much, and obediently nodded in agreement.

After that, the two parted ways and went their separate ways.

Qi Xue stared at the man's back until he disappeared among the trees in the forest, then she looked away, turned around and walked towards the house.When she came out again, she couldn't help but feel a little more weight in the bamboo basket she was carrying. It was the bacon that had been processed in advance and belonged to her.

She deliberately acted separately from the man, not to hoard vegetables and wild fruits as she said, but to find an excuse to sneak down the mountain and sell the meat for money.

The reason why she didn't know how to tell the man to go down the mountain was not because she was on guard against anything, but because she kept using her weak legs as an excuse to refuse to leave.Although he usually went out hunting with him alive and kicking, but after all, he was still in the mountains, so the man just turned a blind eye.

She was afraid that if she rashly proposed to go down the mountain, the man would take the opportunity to tell her not to come back.

She didn't want to let this rare opportunity of living together go to waste. She didn't dare to take any risks.

There was also the matter of selling bacon. She was also afraid that men would object if they found out.

For all the above reasons, she still chose to conceal her whereabouts.

Everything was ready, Qi Xue ran down the mountain nimbly, the distance was not short, and she had to hurry up to come back before the man found out.

Because I was ostracized by the people in the surrounding villages, I had to grow my own daily needs of firewood, rice, oil, and salt, and collect them from the mountains. Grandpa Zhang Shuniu occasionally helped me to provide some, and most of the time I walked long distances to the county to buy them.

There are also some odd jobs she usually does, and some small gadgets that help the family, and they will be sold in the county from time to time for money.

I have been here a lot, and I am familiar with the county. I have seen scenes of old hunters selling their prey in the village a few times, and I know which households receive the meat.

Following her memory, she found the back door of a rich family.

Usually, the front door of a big family's house is used by the owner to enter and exit and to welcome distinguished guests. The cook buys wild goods with the hunters in the village, and most of them order to trade at the back door.

Because the date of the transaction is not fixed, it is usually the hunters in the village who get the meat, so they go to the back door and knock twice, and the guards inside the door will come to ask when they hear the sound.

If there is a demand in this area in the kitchen, someone will be sent over to discuss the price, and if there is no shortage of goods for the time being, someone will be sent over to talk back.

When Orion receives the reply, if the sale fails, he can go to the next house to inquire.

It's not just the buying and selling of wild game, but also some other exquisite things, such as rouge powder, hair oil jewelry, etc., are also traded in this way.However, most of the people who trade in this way are servant girls in the inner house, masters like Mrs. Jin Guiru, and most of their expenses are custom-made by those familiar shops in the county.

Almost all the big families in the county have this tacit agreement.

Qi Xue tightened her hands while carrying the bamboo basket, raised her footsteps slightly, and was about to walk towards the back door.

"Girl, girl"

The intermittent male voice suddenly came from not far behind her, which really startled her.

Qi Xue was not sure if the voice was calling her. After all, the back door of this house is not far from the street, and occasionally pedestrians come and go, and it might be someone else.

It wasn't until the footsteps behind her got closer and closer and the calls became clearer that she subconsciously stopped, frowned slightly and turned sideways, scanning the source of the sound with a sharp gaze.

She saw a slightly pudgy man running over from a place not far away from her while waving his hands. Perhaps because of his fat body, he ran a little hard and would pant once or twice.

She doesn't know this person.

Qi Xue quickly searched the memory of the visitor in her mind, but she had no memory at all.

Her brows could not help but wrinkle even tighter.Since it had nothing to do with her, what was the reason why this man suddenly stopped her?
Qi Xue's eyes were stained with vigilance, staring fixedly at the direction of the person coming, her hands holding the shoulder straps of the bamboo basket unconsciously tightened, as if she was ready to strike at any time.

"Girl, girl!" The fat man shouted while running, and ran to her with great difficulty, panting out of breath.

Qi Xue looked at him seriously, "What's the matter?"

The fat man waved his hands and opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything because he was gasping for breath.

Seeing his appearance, Qi Xue also gave him enough patience, not urging him or forcing him to ask questions, and asked him to stop and answer after he had enough time.

After about two or three minutes, the fat man's breathing gradually calmed down. He grinned, looked at Qi Xue with a bright smile, and said, "Girl, are you going to Liu's residence to do business?"

Liu Mansion, that is, the house where Qi Xue was going to knock on the back door.

"Do you have something to do?" Qi Xue's vigilance remained in her eyes, she didn't answer directly, but instead asked the reason aloud.

She wasn't surprised that the fat man guessed her reason for coming.Usually, there are many people like her, and if you see many people, you can naturally guess her reason for coming.She wondered why this fat man would stop her.

The fat man is also sharp-eyed. Seeing the defense in her eyes, he explained with a smile: "Girl, don't worry, I have no malicious intentions."

"I took the liberty to call the girl, just because I smelled the fragrance in the bamboo basket, I hope the girl will not be offended."

"I'm doing some food business in the county, and I'm also very interested in the ingredients in the village." He expressed his intention tactfully.

Because it was the first time to do such a business in the county, Qi Xue deliberately did not wrap the bacon too tightly, but packed it simply so that the greasy surface of the bacon would not stain the bamboo basket. The purpose is to let the people who buy from big families smell the smell, so as to add points to their own bacon.

Have to say, this method really works.No, before reaching the destination, passers-by were hooked.

"It turned out to be the owner of the county." Qi Xue immediately put on a shrewd look of a businessman, without being muddled, and went straight to the point: "Since we are doing business, naturally there is no reason to refuse visitors."

"It's just that I don't know what price this owner plans to offer?"

She didn't have a clear limit on who to sell the meat to. The price was comparable among the three. Naturally, it was Master Yin who made the decision. Whoever made the most profit would do business with whoever.

Seeing that Qi Xue was so talkative, the fat man almost grinned to the back of his head, "I wonder if the girl can give up her favor a little so that I can try something new?"

This request is not too much. Since it is a transaction, the goods must be inspected in person before the money is delivered.
