Cannot attack objects

The prosperity of Los Angeles is far beyond the imagination of the two children who were born in the countryside and never left the village.

Uncle Zhang had been to Los Angeles many times, so he was familiar with Los Angeles. As soon as the three of them entered the city, he led the two younger ones to find a well.A bucket of water was brought up, and the three drank enough, Zhang Dali didn't think about mint water anymore, this cool well water was enough to quench his thirst, he drank half full in one breath, but he became energetic.

Zhong Shao carried the wooden cage containing the rabbit, watched Uncle Zhang pouring water into the bamboo tube filled with water, then turned his head to look at the spacious streets of Los Angeles, and couldn't help asking: "Uncle Zhang, where are my rabbits going to be sold?"

Luocheng is obviously different from Yangliu Village. Even if they have just entered the city and have not walked a few steps, they can still get a glimpse of the prosperity of this place.Not to mention that the houses on both sides of the street are made of blue bricks, which looks magnificent, and even the road on the ground is paved with blue stone slabs, flat and clean.

In such an unfamiliar environment, Zhong Shao was a little timid, but for some reason, there was another voice in his heart saying: This is nothing serious, don't be afraid, don't even take it to heart.

Uncle Zhang finished filling the water, hung it on the waistband, thought for a while and said, "Your rabbit is not fat enough, maybe restaurants and the like won't buy it, so you can only sell it on the street." He picked up the firewood and said, "Let's go, I'll be with you."

Zhong Shao heard this, and immediately smiled: "Thank you, Second Uncle Zhang."

Uncle Zhang is an honest man, so honest that he can't even be flexible.He has been chopping firewood for years to sell in Los Angeles, but until now, he has basically sold his firewood loosely, without any acquainted customers, let alone any deals with any wine shop or restaurant.In other words, even if he doesn't accompany Zhong Shao to wait on the street for sale, he can only walk around the city with firewood.

The three of them soon arrived at the street where the market was located, regardless of where they were, Uncle Zhang found an empty seat and put the firewood down.Then he didn't yell, just sat behind the firewood load and waited for the guests to come to the door, but there were few passers-by on the street who came and went here.

Zhong Shao followed Second Uncle Zhang. She put the wooden rabbit cage next to the firewood load, and then squatted down on a section of steps.After thinking about it, she was afraid that others would not know what she was selling, so she simply took a rabbit out of the cage and hugged it in her arms. While stroking the soft fur of the rabbit, she looked eagerly at the passers-by, hoping that someone would take a fancy to her. Her rabbit came over to ask the price.

It's a pity that the rabbits that Zhong Shao caught from the mountain were all half-sized, and they were indeed not fat enough as Uncle Zhang said, and no one cared about them.

Zhang Dali and Zhong Shao sat side by side, but they couldn't sit still like Zhong Shao.Now that he was full of water and ate half of the mustard biscuits brought by his father, he had the energy to see everything fresh, and he had nothing to worry about, so he looked around for a while, as if his eyes were not enough.

After waiting for half an hour, someone finally walked in front of Zhong Shao.It was a middle-aged woman with a vegetable basket, she glanced at the rabbit Zhong Shao was holding in her arms, and asked her, "How do you sell this rabbit?"

Zhong Shao thought for a while, and carefully reported a number: "Eighty Wen for one piece."

The woman turned her head and left without even paying back the price.

Eighty cents a rabbit is actually not expensive, even though the two rabbits Zhong Shao caught were not fat enough, they were still meat.These days, just a few years after Taiping, food is expensive, especially meat.

Zhong Shao was confused by the woman's attitude, she hugged the rabbit and looked at the woman's back, somewhat at a loss.When the person was too far away to see, she turned to ask Uncle Zhang, a little cautiously: "Uncle Zhang, am I selling too expensive?"

Second Uncle Zhang thought about it, and felt that the price quoted by Zhong Shao was actually quite fair, but when the words came to his lips, he still said, "Why don't you make it cheaper."

Looking at the two rabbits, Zhong Shao was a little uncertain, and nodded after hesitating for a while.

After waiting for a while, an old lady stopped in front of Zhong Shao and asked the price: "How do you sell the rabbit?"

Zhong Shao looked at the old lady and consciously lowered the price: "75 Wen apiece."

The old lady looked at her, then at the rabbit, and walked away slowly without any counter-offer.

Zhong Shao became depressed. Before she came to Los Angeles, she actually asked someone that the hares on the mountain could be sold for a hundred yuan in Los Angeles.However, she felt that the rabbit was not fat enough, so she only called for 75 renminbi, but they left without even paying the price. Now it has been reduced to [-] renminbi and no one is buying it.

She unconsciously turned her head to look at Uncle Zhang. Uncle Zhang opened his mouth and finally said, "Wait, wait."

That's right, there is nothing I can do except continue to wait, after all, the rice tank at home has bottomed out.

Afterwards, several people came to ask the price one after another. Zhong Shao had no choice but to lower the price to seventy cash, but still no one bought her two rabbits.At this time, not to mention the mint water promised to Zhang Dali before entering the city, Zhong Shao began to worry about the next meal.

Someone came to ask Second Uncle Zhang to buy firewood. The price of a load of firewood was always the same. There was nothing to bargain.But this firewood needs to be delivered to the door by Uncle Zhang, so after making an agreement with the person who bought the firewood, Uncle Zhang looked back at the two little ones, hesitating whether to ask them to go this trip together.

"Ah Shao, Dali, you guys..." Second Uncle Zhang hadn't finished speaking when he saw a young man in fine clothes suddenly walking over.

This street is where a small market in Los Angeles is located, but it only sells the most basic food, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea.There are either hawkers setting up stalls to sell things, or women and girls picking things with baskets, and occasionally a few idlers wandering on the street, but no matter how you say it, this place is not like those rich guys would where to come.

It was very strange and eye-catching for a young man in brocade clothes to appear suddenly in such a place, and what was even more strange and eye-catching was that he walked straight to Zhong Shao with a clear-cut smile on his face.

Zhong Shao looked at him and blinked, knowing that this person must be either rich or noble by his attire, but he felt inexplicably calm in his heart.On the other hand, Second Uncle Zhang and Zhang Dali were both a little uncomfortable seeing Brother Young Master approaching, or they were instinctively timid and cowardly.

But Zhong Shao was brought into the city by Uncle Zhang. He pinched the hem of his clothes and took a step forward. Just as he was about to ask, the young master asked in a nice voice, "How do you sell this rabbit?"

Did you come to buy a rabbit? !

Uncle Zhang was a little dazed, and the firewood buyer who was waiting to deliver the firewood was also a little dazed, and even Zhang Dali looked at the young master in a daze.

Brother Young Master is dressed in brocade clothes, and looks even more talented, so he must have a good status after all.Facing the eyes of several people, he was not moved at all, still smiling brightly and gently, and only looked at Zhong Shao intently, as if he wanted to see her through.

Zhong Shao didn't like this look very much, but when someone asked about the price, he still replied, "Seventy coins for one piece."

Upon hearing this, the son-in-law said bluntly, "Give me as many as you have."

Although Zhong Shao instinctively didn't like this man very much, but he was still happy when he heard that he wanted to buy all his rabbits.She immediately stood up, and while putting the rabbit in her arms into the wooden cage, she said, "Here are two, totaling 140 Wen."

Paying the money with one hand and delivering the goods, Zhong Shao directly handed over the wooden cage containing the rabbit, but what the young master handed over was not the copper coin that Zhong Shao thought, but a bright and bright silver ingot.

Uncle Zhang had never seen such a big silver ingot in his life, and he was already on the spot, as was the firewood buyer next to him and Zhang Dali.

Zhong Shao's family was originally wealthy, but she had seen silver ingots when she was a child, she glanced at the bright silver ingot, and estimated that this ingot was worth 50 taels.She didn't panic, but said with some embarrassment: "Master, you have too much money, I... can't find it."

Brother Gongzi didn't take it seriously, he just stuffed the silver ingot into Zhong Shao's hand, and said with a smile: "I think you are friendly, and I want to make friends with you. Money is just something outside of the body, so don't worry about this little money."

Zhong Shao stared blankly at the silver ingot that was forced into his hand, and then raised his head to look at the elder brother who was still smiling like a spring breeze in front of him. There was only one thought in his heart: Is this person stupid? !
