Take Taobao to ancient times

Chapter 41 Between Buying and Selling

"Xiao Yu, Master Zhuang is here."

From a long distance, Lu Siyu heard Lu Youdi's voice, and vaguely saw Zhuang Jinhan and the three people walking with him.

Two of the three were older, they looked like husband and wife, and the other was talking to Zhuang Jinhan.

After a while, a group of people approached, Zhuang Jinhan waved at Lu Siyu: "Brother Yu, long time no see."

Lu Siyu smiled slightly: "Long time no see, brother Zhuang, who are these?"

"This is my friend, surnamed Qi." Zhuang Jinhan pointed to the person beside him.

This person was about the same age as Zhuang Jinhan, with his head held high, his hands behind his back, he nodded slightly after hearing the introduction, but his eyes kept looking elsewhere, as if he was looking for something.

"Master Qi." Lu Siyu greeted without asking what he was looking for.

"En." Young Master Qi nodded casually, as if he had already responded, but his eyes still did not look back.

But his behavior didn't make people feel that there was anything wrong, as if he took it for granted no matter what he did.

This is not only Lu Siyu's opinion, but also Zhuang Jinhan's and the middle-aged father's.

"These two are my parents." Zhuang Jinhan introduced Lu Siyu seriously.

Lu Siyu was taken aback, and quickly said respectfully, "Hello, Uncle and Aunt."

"Okay, are you my son's friend?" Zhuang's mother was very curious about Zhuang Jinhan's friends early in the morning, but now when she saw the real Lu Siyu, she couldn't help asking.

"Eh..." Lu Siyu was a little taken aback, looking at Zhuang Jinhan.

"Don't you consider me a friend?" Zhuang Jinhan asked with a straight face.

"No, how could that be?" Lu Siyu said hastily. He didn't know what kind of riddle Zhuang Jinhan was playing. How could he introduce his friends first and then his parents? It seems that he doesn't like to talk to people.

"Uncle and aunt, the two of you are exhausted, how about going to my house and having a cup of tea first?" Lu Siyu changed the subject, after all, he had to put a question mark on whether he and Zhuang Jinhan were friends.

"Do you have a cup at home?" Zhuang Jinhan interrupted suddenly.

Lu Siyu was stunned, and immediately retorted: "There are no cups to borrow, there will always be."

"Oh, I thought you didn't entertain me with a cup on purpose." Zhuang Jinhan complained pretendingly, his tone seemed aggrieved.

"Xiao Yu, don't mind, Jin Han has a child's temper," Zhuang's mother answered from the side, raised her hand and patted the back of this sentence, and looked at Lu Siyu cheerfully, "Can I call you Xiao Yu?"

"My name is Lu Siyu. Auntie can call you whatever she wants." Lu Siyu said with a smile.

"That Si Yu in the Book of Songs?" Mother Zhuang asked back.

"En." Lu Siyu nodded. In fact, his name is not special, and its meaning is also very common. It is probably because Father Lu randomly found two words in the Book of Songs, and then chose the names of his younger siblings based on his name.

Si Yu, that is, Wing, and Lu's father can be regarded as a serious rural person, and the child's name sounds educated, but in fact it is just taking advantage of a scholar.

Seeing that she had guessed Lu Siyu's name correctly, Mother Zhuang was also very excited, and chatted with him a few more times.

"Cough." Father Zhuang coughed from the side.

"What are you coughing for? I'm chatting with Xiaoyu, what are you talking about, old man!" Zhuang's mother immediately snapped back.

Father Zhuang frowned, and glanced at someone not far away from the corner of his eye.

With just one glance, Zhuang's mother held back all her words, and took Lu Siyu's hand and said kindly: "Xiao Yu, I heard that you have a sweet potato planted here. I wonder if you can go and have a look?"

Lu Siyu was stunned, and quickly said: "Of course, it just so happens that we are also planning to dig it out. Some brothers should have gone to find uncle and uncle just now. We can formally dig when they come over."

Sure enough, not long after he finished speaking, Lu Youdi came over with his uncle and uncle.

"Xiao Yu, now that Young Master Zhuang is back, can we dig?" the uncle asked impatiently. He had been thinking about those things in the field for a long time, and he really wanted to act immediately.

"Yes, but there are so many sweet potatoes, and we definitely can't dig them out in a short time. Let's dig some out today and try something new. Maybe someone will come to help us later, brother Zhuang, right?" He didn't know that Father Zhuang and Mother Zhuang I don't know the identity of Zhuang Jinhan's friend, but since Zhuang Jinhan brought them here, it means that the three of them must have great thoughts about that large sweet potato field.

"Of course, Brother Yu just don't worry about this matter." Zhuang Jinhan nodded immediately.

All the staff arrived, and the group walked to the sweet potato field.

The location of the sweet potato field was neither far nor near, but it was still within the scope of the village, so after walking for a while, the group arrived at their destination.

The sweet potatoes are all ripe now, and there is a large green area on the ground, and there is almost no trace of soil when looking down from the top.

"Uncle, let Brother Youdi go and buy some piglets in the county these two days." Lu Siyu suddenly thought of something.

"How much do you want to buy?" The uncle didn't ask why he wanted to buy it, but just asked for the specific quantity.

Lu Siyu squatted down and pulled a sweet potato vine: "A dozen or twenty sweet potato vines. There are so many sweet potato vines, they are already old, some of them can sprout, and the rest can be treated a little, enough to feed pigs."

"Okay, did you hear Xiao Yu's words?"

"Understood." Lu Youdi nodded quickly, but there were still many questions in his mind, for example, they wanted to buy a pig, but where was the money for the pig?

Although thinking so in his heart, Lu Youdi didn't say anything, he just wanted to wait for the outsider to leave before asking.

Lu Siyu didn't explain that much, he still squatted on the spot: "Uncle, give me the little hoe."

"Here, Xiaoyu, you dig." The uncle handed the small hoe to Lu Siyu's hand.

The height of the small hoe is only up to the position of the thigh, and the weight is relatively light. It is generally used by children for work, or when doing some more delicate work.

But with Lu Siyu, who made him weak, so he could only use a small hoe.

It was also Lu Siyu's first time planting sweet potatoes. His experience came from the professional planting book he bought on Taobao. How big is the second sweet potato.

In order to avoid cutting the sweet potatoes, he can only use a small hoe to dig down slowly. After digging out a batch, he can know the approximate number of sweet potatoes in this field, and he can also dig down according to this strength.

After digging for a while, he saw the color of sweet potatoes, which was similar to the color of wet soil, showing a pinkish hue. Even urbanites would not mistake this color in modern times. After all, roasted sweet potatoes are a kind of food It is not unique to rural areas.

He dug up all the soil around the sweet potatoes, and after a while, half of the sweet potatoes were exposed.

The small hoe was put aside, and he dug down with bare hands. Soon, he dug out the whole sweet potato.

This sweet potato is about the size of two fists together, and it is still covered with dirt.

"Let me take a look." The friend surnamed Qi took the sweet potato from Lu Siyu's hand, weighed it up and down, and looked at Zhuang Jinhan's father happily, "What does Uncle Zhuang think?"

"Very good. If it can be promoted, our national power will be even stronger." Father Zhuang also couldn't restrain his excitement. Looking at the large greenery, he only felt his eyes moisten.

The uncle quietly looked at Lu Siyu: "Xiaoyu, this..."

"They are here to buy sweet potatoes." Lu Siyu smiled. In fact, during this period of time, the uncle and uncle didn't even know the identity of Zhuang Jinhan. Naturally, there is no need to know the identity of Zhuang Jinhan's parents this time. slightly less.

"Someone bought this thing before it was dug out?" the uncle was a little incredulous.

Lu Siyu nodded. He had no doubts about the sales of sweet potatoes, and believed that the few people who came today could see what a mu of sweet potatoes meant.

The identities of these people are not simple, Lu Siyu has seen it early on, although he still doesn't know the real identities of these people, but he believes that these people can definitely afford these sweet potatoes, and are willing to spend money to buy them.

"Can you dig out some more?" the friend surnamed Qi said suddenly.

"Of course there is no problem." Lu Siyu smiled, "Uncle and Uncle, you are relatively strong, so dig out some more for the guests. Dig a little down. These sweet potatoes are a bit big, so be careful not to break them."

"What's the matter, take care of it and dig it out, second child, you go to the other end, I'm here, let's do it together." The uncle called the second uncle to work.

"okay."

As the saying goes, as soon as an expert makes a move, he will know if there is any. Once these two experts in farm work make a move, Lu Siyu's previous work is like a child playing house.

Going down with a hoe, although a lot of mud will be brought out, each hoe can dig out a large sweet potato, but because the sweet potatoes are a little dense, they will occasionally cut on the sweet potato, but as long as they feel that the touch is not right, they will He can stop his hand immediately, and then dig out the whole sweet potato.

After a while, the two dug a ridge of land. From one end to the other, you could see a long row of sweet potatoes, each as big as two fists, which looked very spectacular.

The more they dug, the more excited they were, and couldn't help shouting: "Xiaoyu, this time the harvest is not small."

"Uncle and Uncle, don't rush to dig, gather what you dug out first." Lu Siyu said hastily, there are so many sweet potatoes, two people can't dig them out, someone needs to help.

"Okay, we took the bamboo basket and thought it could hold a lot, but looking at the head, I guess it can't hold a lot. Let's put these in first." The uncle and the second uncle hurriedly started throwing sweet potatoes into the bamboo basket .

Lu Siyu looked at Zhuang Jinhan and the others: "Have you eaten yet? How about going to my house for dinner?"

"What is Brother Yu going to do?" Zhuang Jinhan asked with a smile.

"For example, sweet potato porridge." Lu Siyu shook the big sweet potato in his hand, not only this, but there are many sweet potatoes in his warehouse. He bought it on a whim, but he never ate it.

"Of course, we are very willing to taste the taste of sweet potato porridge." Zhuang Jinhan nodded immediately.

"Please~~" Lu Siyu squinted and smiled, these people are big customers.

"polite."
