Started as a thatched house and ended up as a female figure

Cheng Wan, Cheng Erping, and Deng Xiong went to Gaojiacun again.

Yanqiu and He Chunlai did not come with them, and the siblings stayed at the inn.

Cheng Erping drove Cheng Wan in a carriage, and Deng Xiong followed behind in a separate carriage.

Cheng Erping looked at the rolling mountains in the distance and sighed: "I didn't pay attention to the surrounding mountains before, Ah Wan, these mountains looked foggy from a distance, but they looked strangely beautiful.

This time it really came out right!

Otherwise, how could I see so many mountains!

Ah Wan, Yingqiu should be considered a place with many mountains, right? "

In the carriage, Cheng Wan chuckled, "Not bad, but Yingqiu is not a complete mountainous area.

It is impossible to drive a carriage through a real mountainous area, and even walking is difficult. "

Two quarters of an hour later, two carriages entered Gaojiacun one after another.

It was cold, so there were no people on the village road or outside the houses in Gaojia Village. Most of the villagers stayed indoors.

Two carriages were driving along the narrow village road. Despite the rustling sound of the cold wind, they inevitably attracted the attention of a small number of villagers.

Several men and women from the village gathered together, looking at the backs of the two carriages, and chatting in good faith.

"Where did this carriage come from? Our village is small and poor, and no carriage has ever come to our village.

Today, our village is really lively. "

"Isn't that right? Even the people who came to collect mountain goods in the past were just driving mule carts and ox carts."

"Where did they go? This direction looks like they are going to the village chief's house."

"How about we follow up and have a look at the excitement?"

“If you want to go, I don’t dare to go.

If you can drive a carriage or two carriages, you are definitely a very wealthy person.

If you accidentally make someone unhappy, wouldn't it mean that you can't eat and walk around? ! "

"Alas! That's true.

Let’s think about what we will do this year if the people collecting New Year’s goods don’t come!

It’s almost impossible to open the pot in this house! "

"..."

At the intersection in front of several thatched houses, Cheng Erping stopped the carriage.

"Awan, it's cold outside. Don't come down in a hurry. I'll go and ask if this is the place."

Cheng Wan felt the care from her brother and smiled happily.

"I know, second brother."

Cheng Erping jumped out of the front room of the carriage and walked towards the thatched house not far away.

"anyone there?

Is this the village chief's home? "

"Who?"

A tall, thin woman who looked to be in her forties curled her neck, opened the door curtain a little, and looked out.

The woman looked at Cheng Erping's completely unfamiliar face and said warily: "Who are you?"

Why are you looking for the village chief? "

"Eh? Big brother!"

A boy of seven or eight years old poked his head out from the opened curtain. After seeing Cheng Erping's face clearly, his eyes lit up, he opened the curtain excitedly and ran out.

"Brother, why are you here?

Are you here to find me?

Chun Lai was betrayed by his father!

Big brother, do you know this? "

Cheng Erping smiled and touched the boy's head, took out a few candies from his pocket and handed them to him.

“Don’t worry Haru is here, he’s fine.

Big Brother is not here to find you, but Big Brother is very happy to see you. Big Brother treats you to some sweets. "

The boy smiled happily and stretched out his hand to grab the candy in Cheng Erping's palm, but the back of his hand was suddenly patted.

"Miscellaneous, why did you hit me?!"

The woman glared at the boy, then quickly turned to look at Cheng Erping with a warm smile on her face.

"Are you the one who asked this kid for directions yesterday?

When he came home, he took out a handful of candies from his pocket, which shocked us.

I thought he had stolen it somewhere.

I'm just asking for directions. Why did you give your child so many precious candies? I'm really embarrassed.

You must never give me this candy again.

By the way, you are looking for the village chief, right?

Tiedan'er, hurry up, go to your second master's house and call your master back.

Just say that there are distinguished guests at home. "

The boy, also known as Tiedan, agreed and ran outside.

Cheng Erping saw someone observing him curiously out of the corner of his eye.

They were the family members of Village Chief Gao who stayed in the house and did not come out.

"Quick, let's go sit inside, it's cold outside."

Tiedan's grandma warmly invited Cheng Erping into the house.

"Auntie, breasts, are not..."

Cheng Erping frowned in confusion, what should be the appropriate name for this?

When I cry for milk, I can’t say it out loud.

Calling auntie is the wrong generation again.

Tiedan's grandma smiled and waved her hand, "We don't care about that. If you don't mind, just call me Aunt Sun."

Cheng Erping smiled and nodded, "Aunt Sun, I have a sister and brother waiting at the intersection. I'll call them over."

Half a quarter of an hour later, Cheng Wan and the other three men were sitting on the kang of Gao Village Chief's house with a bowl of hot tea in their hands, talking to Tie Dan's great-grandfather, Tie Dan's grandmother Sun Auntie, and Tie Dan's father.

There are also several wild products placed on the kang table.

As for the others, they were all driven back to their houses by Aunt Sun.

She was worried that there would be too many people and it would be messy, which would make Cheng Wan and the others unhappy.

Tiedan's father was able to stay because he was the eldest son of Village Chief Gao and Aunt Sun.

A calm voice came in from outside, "Where are the people? What kind of distinguished guest is coming to the door? My mother?"

Aunt Sun's eyes lit up, "Boss! Call your dad in quickly!"

Tiedan's father walked quickly outside the house without saying a word.

Cheng Wan and the other three got off the kang and stood up. They couldn't sit on someone else's kang and wait for them to enter the house, right?

This is basic courtesy.

"What?! Buy local products!"

As a shocked voice sounded, Cheng Wan heard someone walking faster into the room.

"Dad, these three distinguished guests want to buy our mountain products."

Tiedan’s father introduced him to Village Chief Gao.

Cheng Wan looked at the tall, strong man in front of him and smiled politely, "Village Chief Gao."

Village Chief Gao glanced past Cheng Wan and the others and saw an adult with two older children. He was a little confused as to why the only girl standing in front was the first to speak.

"You want to buy mountain products?"

Cheng Wan nodded, "We just took a look and found that the quality of your mountain goods is good and they are kept very clean.

How much dried fungus do you have at home? We all want it.

We want pine nuts, walnuts, and hazelnuts each at 100 kilograms. Please give us a price. "

There were more than three hundred kilograms of mountain goods in total, and this was just one family. Cheng Wan wanted to buy more, but the carriage would not be able to pull any more.

Cheng Wan planned to find a way to continue buying more if he brought back this batch of mountain goods and sold them very well.

Aunt Sun slapped her thigh excitedly, "Hey! Okay, okay!

Boss! Hurry up and call your second and third brothers to weigh the three nobles! "

Village Chief Gao's father was also very happy. He hammered his crutch and said, "I picked up the scale!"

"got it!"

The corner of Tiedan Daddy's mouth almost cracked to the base of his ears, and he responded loudly and ran out.

Village Chief Gao also had a smile on his face, "Pine nuts, walnuts, and hazelnuts all have the same price, four cents per catty. Dried fungus is more expensive, eighty cents per catty."

"How many?!"

Cheng Wan stared, rarely shocked.

This...this is too cheap!
