Take Taobao to ancient times

When the three of them arrived home this time, everyone was calmer than yesterday, but the dinner was a little bigger than yesterday. It was no longer just a few plates of pickles, and there was an extra plate of meat.

Although the amount of meat is not much, it is still a plate of fresh meat.

I don't know who made it, each piece of meat on this plate was almost the same size, but after everyone at the table ate one piece, there were three more pieces, which were naturally reserved for Lu Siyu and the uncle and the second uncle.

However, the taste of this meat in Lu Siyu is really not very good. It stands to reason that there are many ways to make pork. The most typical way is of course braised pork. But in a poor family, oil and salt are already luxury goods, so naturally there will be no Light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, brown sugar, cooking wine, etc., so this plate of meat is fried with a little salt.

As for things like oil, isn’t fatty meat itself oil, and it will come out after frying, so how can you be so particular about it.

Although the taste wasn't very good, Lu Siyu still finished eating the piece of meat specially reserved for him.

After eating, Lu Siyu brought up the matter of buying and selling charcoal again, and directly told the aunt and second aunt that he would collect it again tomorrow at most, and it would be enough for the trip the next morning. Don't take any more, so as not to lose Sometimes I lost money by pressing the goods.

"It's really not for sale?" The second aunt just felt that this business is easy to do in the past two days, and she was somewhat reluctant to hear Lu Siyu say so.

"Well, if you don't want to lose money." Lu Siyu looked at the four seriously.

"Then... then I won't sell it." The second auntie said in a dazed tone. Although they made a lot of money selling charcoal this time, they were still small-scale peasants. When they thought that they might lose money, they didn't dare to go down. gone.

This time Lu Siyu felt that such an idea was quite good, at least it saved him a lot of talking. If someone really insisted on going his own way, this matter would become more difficult.

Both the uncle and the uncle are very pragmatic. After Lu Siyu said that he could not sell, he immediately stopped thinking about it, and only wanted to do a good job in the business tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. , but he is not an impetuous person, and he can listen to persuasion, but becomes afraid of losing money and dare not do it.

In fact, it is not impossible to have no risk. Everyone in the countryside is more practical. Many people don’t want to go to the town to sell charcoal, so they will take the initiative to send it to Uncle Lu. Returning the goods, there are probably people in the village who are willing to send charcoal.

But in this way, it will become a human favor transaction. If there is a first time, there will be a second time. If someone follows the example in the future, the villager will lose in the end, so this precedent must not be set.

Moreover, according to Lu Siyu's estimation, the roads around the county will be open at noon the day after tomorrow at the latest, and a large amount of charcoal will be supplied in the county at that time. Those people are all professionals, so it's better not to join in the small business of the villagers. To avoid any surprises.

The snow melts quickly, which is the characteristic of winter in the south. Unlike the climate in the north, which is more than [-] degrees below zero and [-] degrees below zero, the lowest weather in the south is about one or two degrees below zero. Although the snow fell more heavily this time, it went away quickly, especially in the mountains around the county town where there were fewer mountains, and the snow was cleared faster.

The next day, Lu Siyu went to the county with his uncle and uncle, but the business on this day was obviously much more difficult than the previous two days, and the three of them arrived home much later than usual.

When the ox cart entered the village, the sky had already become pitch black. Except for a few houses with kerosene lamps on, in this era without street lights, night roads were really difficult to walk.

"No wonder Xiaoyu said that our business can be done tomorrow at the latest. Seeing that the weather is getting hotter and the snow has melted, there are many more businessmen in the county town. I guess a charcoal merchant will come tomorrow." Uncle said low Said in a low voice, a little in admiration for Lu Siyu in his heart.

"Isn't that right? This kid is more promising than his father. His father looks like that, either I say, or a nerd who can only study hard. If it weren't for this, the third child's family wouldn't be what it is now. Look at that Four children, if Xiaoyu is not promising, what will happen to the three young ones." The auntie whispered, while she disliked Lu Siyu, and at the same time praised Lu Siyu for being good.

Anyway, the husband and wife were lying in bed and chatting, and they didn't shy away from anything.

"Okay, the third child is gone, there is nothing to say, but it is true that they gave birth to a good son." The uncle sighed.

"Looking at Xiao Yu's appearance before, he was sickly, and everyone said that he would not live long. I didn't expect that after this illness, he would change. Not only his body and bones have improved a lot, but his brain has also become brighter. Doesn't it mean that scholars are smart, Xiao Yu? Smarter than many scholars." In just a few days, the aunt's impression of Lu Siyu was almost perfect, and she really didn't hesitate to praise her.

"It's really smart. Having such a smart child is the virtue of our old Lu family ancestors." The uncle said seriously.

"Hey, do you think it is because the third child and the third daughter-in-law met our ancestors at the bottom this time, what benefits have they gained?" The auntie used her imagination.

"Who knows, let's not talk about it, I have to get up early tomorrow, go to bed quickly." The uncle muttered, feeling sleepy.

Lu Siyu didn't know that his uncle and auntie were still chatting about him before going to bed, so he took the three little ones home, arranged the three little ones' positions as usual, and fell asleep after a while.

Early the next morning, he woke up early again.

Today is the last half day for them to sell charcoal. The charcoal has been collected and arranged as early as yesterday, and no more charcoal will be collected after that.

Everyone put the charcoal on the ox cart together, tied it, and rode the ox cart to the county seat.

Today's business is even more difficult than yesterday's. Fortunately, they decided to only take this trip early today, so they didn't rush to knock on the door and sell charcoal.

It was not until the afternoon that all their charcoal was sold out.

The better location for both sides this time is next to a busy street.

The three businesses have made a lot of money this time, and with copper coins in their pockets, they will naturally consider adding something to the family.

Both the uncle and the second uncle went shopping according to the list of the uncle and the second aunt, and there were all kinds of odds and ends. Ordered some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.

In fact, Taobao has everything he wants, but he can't just take out the things he traded in Taobao, there must be a cover, anyway, he really bought it, even if these things appear at home, it is not unusual, as for How much weight there is, outsiders probably won't know.

Lu Siyu has seen it before, he still has a balance of 10,000+ in his account, which is not too much in modern times, but as long as you don’t buy big things, just buy some small things, this money will become a huge sum of money, at least for now It seems that this huge sum of money can be used for a long time.

As before, the things Lu Siyu bought were still wrapped in parcels. When facing his uncle and second uncle, he only revealed a little bit, but didn't say the exact amount, and his uncle and second uncle didn't ask too much.

Just as the bullock cart was about to leave the city, Lu Siyu suddenly heard a voice not far away.

"Brother Yu~~"

Lu Siyu turned his head, the bullock cart stopped slowly, he jumped off the bullock cart, walked in front of the other party, and put a little distance away so that he could look at the other party just by raising his head slightly.

"Brother Zhuang."

Zhuang Jinhan changed his clothes today, but the clothes were still embroidered with exquisite bamboo, which made the already refined person even more gentle, and attracted people who came and went couldn't help but look at him.

On the contrary, Lu Siyu was still wrapped in the clothes that Zhuang Jinhan gave him before.

This is also helpless, Lu Siyu's family doesn't have many clothes, and he has to get up early in the morning to go on the road. The cold wind is blowing along the way, so he has to wear Zhuang Jinhan's clothes to block the wind, at least it feels a little better.

But... I haven't changed my clothes for three days, and the person standing in front of me is still the owner of the clothes, so I feel really embarrassed.

Zhuang Jinhan didn't seem to notice that Lu Siyu was still wearing his clothes, but just looked at the bullock cart going out of the city: "Are you going back, the charcoal is sold out?"

"Well," Lu Siyu nodded, "Today is also our last day to sell charcoal. Now that the roads are clear, this business cannot continue for the time being."

"On the last day, is Brother Yu thinking about this?" Zhuang Jinhan was a little surprised. He knew the market price of charcoal, and he also knew that Lu Siyu and the others must have made some money from selling charcoal this time. He originally thought that they would not be satisfied enough. , to do business for a few more days, did not expect to have already made plans?

"Well, seeing that the weather is getting hotter and the roads are smooth, our charcoal business will definitely not be able to continue with a dedicated supplier. We should make plans early to avoid overstocking our hands. We are all relatively poor. I'm sorry." Lu Siyu was telling the truth, and he told his uncles and uncles the same way.

"Brother Yu is so far-sighted." Zhuang Jinhan was a little surprised, not because of how brilliant the idea was, but because he never thought that this idea would come from Lu Siyu's mouth.

It's like a college student and a primary school student standing together. It's normal for a college student to solve a quadratic equation in one unknown. If they can't solve it, they're stupid. However, if a primary school student solves a quadratic equation in one variable, they won't be considered smart.

Obviously before this, Lu Siyu was an image of a primary school student in Zhuang Jinhan's eyes.

Lu Siyu didn't mind at all, Zhuang Jinhan's high status can be seen at a glance, and the difference in status between the two is not so easy to eliminate, so he just smiled slightly after hearing Zhuang Jinhan's words: "Brother Zhuang is too flattering, but it's getting late now , we need to go back quickly, lest it will be inconvenient to rush in the dark."

Zhuang Jinhan withdrew his surprise and cupped his hands: "Brother Yu, go slowly."

"Farewell, brother Zhuang." Lu Siyu also cupped his hands and got on the bullock cart.

After a while, the two ox carts were drifting away.

When he was outside the city, the uncle couldn't help asking: "Xiaoyu, that young master Zhuang..."

Lu Siyu waved his hand: "It has nothing to do with us. Master Zhuang's status is much higher than ours. His clothes are probably made of silk, which most people can't afford. Anyway, we won't see them again in the future, so don't bother."

Uncle nodded earnestly: "That's right, that Young Master Zhuang is far behind us, it's best to pretend that there is no such person."

The author has something to say: Zhuang Jinhan: What do you mean without me?Am I not a human, am I a ghost? ! !

Lu Siyu: Who says it's not ╮(￣▽￣")╭

Zhuang Jinhan: I'm angry (#‵′)

Lu Siyu: o(*^＠^*)o good~

Zhuang Jinhan: Cough cough, forget it, I don't care about you generously! 【←_← Good-for-nothing being shunned~~】
