Through the fairy valley

Chapter 9 Fruit Diplomacy

As they walked, the two looked at the hawkers selling fruits in baskets on the street. There were no fruits here, only a few pears, as well as common chestnuts, persimmons and other seasonal fruits.

Walking along the street, it is easy to see the grand gatehouse of the north and south groceries, and a flag with the word "Hang" hangs in front of the gate to indicate the surname of the owner.

Walking to the gate of Nanbei Groceries, Qian Ke took out a grapefruit in advance with an idea, and just walked in with Cao Yang.

The young master of the Hang family, Hang Qi, happened to be taking inventory in the store today, and was taken aback when he saw the two people walking in. The clothes of the two people looked extraordinary, the body in black was like a jade tree, and the eyebrows in white were like willows, both of them looked good. good looks.

"You two distinguished guests, what do you want to buy?" The shopkeeper who was in charge of the shop came to greet him.

Qian Ke put the grapefruit in his hand on the cabinet, and said calmly: "We are from Borneo, and we are friends of Mr. Nangong from Guixian County. I heard that your store has a complete range of products. I want to come and buy some daily necessities."

Hang Qi looked at the fruit on the counter and listened to their accent and asked curiously: "Dear guest, is this Huyou?"

"No." Qian Ke shook his head: "How can Huyou be so big!"

"Then this is?" Hang Qi asked curiously.

"Red heart pomelo tastes much better than Hu pomelo!" Cao Yang introduced.

Hang Qi was amazed: "Xiao Ke has traveled all over the country, but I have never seen such a thing."

Qian Ke looked back at him: "Oh, would you like to try it together?"

"Is this okay?" Hang Qi asked with a foodie expression.

"Bring a knife." Qian Ke asked him to bring a knife, and Hang Qiyi immediately took out a small saber from his body and handed it over.

Qian Ke drew out his knife with a cold light.

"Good knife!" Qian Kezan said.

The grapefruit quickly split open and divided into petals, the red flesh inside was very attractive.

"Please!" Qian Ke picked up a petal and gave it to Cao Yang, and he also picked up one and tore it open, biting it down. It was juicy and delicious.

Seeing them eating, Hang Qi immediately picked up a petal, followed them to tear it open, took a bite, and shouted: "Delicious, delicious, extremely sweet and sour!"

Qian Ke saw that other people in the store watched the three of them eat. I'm sorry, no matter the customer or the buddy, they all have one piece and one piece, and everyone can't help but praise and thank them after eating.

Seeing how generously they distributed to everyone, Hang Qi was a little bit reluctant, but he was not a stingy person, so he asked the shopkeeper to prepare tea in the back room, and asked Qian Ke and Cao Yang to sit behind.

The three sat down, and Hang Qi thanked him: "I've never eaten such a fruit, it's called red pomelo, right?"

Qian Ke nodded: "Yes!"

"I don't know where this fruit comes from?"

"An island in Borneo."

"Borneo, it's no wonder that Xiao Ke has never eaten." Hang Qi said with a look of regret.

"Didn't ask for advice?" Qian Ke asked.

"Oh, oh, I want to eat all I want, so I'm neglecting it. In Xiahangqi, I'm the head of the Hang family and the head of the Jiuhe family."

"It turned out to be Young Master Hang, I'm sorry!" Qian Ke and Cao Yang followed the ancients and bowed their hands.

"I don't know who you two are?"

"Qian Ke, Cao Yang, the young master of the Valley of the Immortals in Borneo." Qian Ke introduced, calling out his name almost made Cao Yang laugh.

"I'm sorry!" Hang Qi didn't know anything about Borneo, and he seemed to have a lot of background when he heard about the Valley of the Immortals. No matter what, he burned too much incense.

Qian Ke roughly said what he had said to Nangong Lie, but he deliberately described the Valley of the Immortals as a big island on Borneo, which made Hang Qi even more friendly.

"You two, if you want to sell grain, our Hang family has branches in every prefecture in Yaoguo, but Jiuhe is where our family is. I have received favors and been taught, Jiuhe is not allowed to open a grain store." Hang Qi introduced.

"Oh, the ancestors of your family know how to repay their kindness, which is admirable!" Qian Ke said admiringly.

Hang Qi thanked him modestly: "I don't know how much food Young Master Qian has?"

"No less than a million stones." Qian Ke said.

"Bai, Baishi!" Hang Qi was taken aback.

"It's a million stones. We have ten thousand hectares of fertile land in the Valley of the Immortals, and one of the richest people." Qian Ke is bragging that he doesn't need money anyway, and is fooling around to death.

"Then you must cooperate with our Hang family. The war is imminent. Our Hang family is one of the few merchants who supply grain and grass to the imperial court. We can ask for as much as you have, and we can also pay for it on delivery." Hang Qi said with a smile.

"Okay, we can consider this." What you want for money is cash on delivery.

"But we have one request." Qian Ke said to the beaming Hang Qi.

"Please tell me, Young Master Qian." Seeing that the business was promising, Hang Qi was overjoyed and respectful.

"Except for the scattered final payment in silver, we all want gold." Qian Ke said his request.

"That's no problem." Hang Qi immediately made a decision. Gold is the hard currency of all countries, and it is easy to carry, and it is more convenient than silver.

"Xiao Ke also has an unfeeling request." Hang Qi said with a look of embarrassment after negotiating a major matter.

"Oh, please!"

"I don't know how much the young master has left of this red pomelo. Our Hang shop is willing to buy them all."

"There are more than 500 of these, and they can be stored for more than one and a half months." Qianke Qikeshu has harvested about 600, which may be due to the high yield of valley fruits, and the taste and yield are guaranteed to a certain extent.

"I count this one as two or two. I want all of them. Do you think it's okay?" Hang Qi said immediately.

"Okay, then I'll prepare and deliver it later."

"Okay, okay." Hang Qi immediately got up and sent them out.

Going out to the old rules, hired two mule carts that had just pulled grain, first took them to buy more than a dozen large baskets, and asked him to wait in the old place, the mule carts were happy because they gave money, and the price was high, thank you Thanks for the preparation.

The two immediately returned to the place where they had just boarded the car and summoned the speeding car to leave the city.

Cao Yang laughed at the money driving the car: "You are so good, you can talk about big things all at once, and you have made so much money."

Qian can drive the car to the designated location, take back the car and wait for the mule cart to come.

"This is because we took advantage of the technology, and we have to speed up later, but don't worry, I will definitely let us all have a good life." Qian Ke said with his arms around Cao Yang's shoulders.

Cao Yang smiled and nodded confidently at him.

Ten minutes later, the mules and horses had already come over from a distance, and the two of them had already spread several sacks on the ground, and put grapefruits densely on them.

Looking at the place where there was so much grain just now, there are so many fruits, and I can't help but be amazed.

"When you go out, there are always subordinates busy with work." Qian Ke explained with a smile.

"Yes, yes!" Jiuhe used to be a trading port, and the handlebar knew that the two of them were different, so he didn't ask too much, and immediately put the grapefruits into the baskets.

"There are 550 in total, two gentlemen." The two handlebars counted while moving, and then reported the number. This kind of thing that they have never seen before, the two of them are afraid that one less will cause trouble, so they are extremely careful.

"En!" Qian Ke naturally knew the numbers, nodded, and got in the car to go back with them.

When they arrived at the entrance of Nanbei Groceries, Hang Qi was waiting at the entrance, and Nangong Lie was also there.

"I heard that the two of you have made a big deal with Seventh Young Master, and I'm here to congratulate you!"

Qian Ke said before that they and Nangong Lie were friends, but in fact they just met by chance, and now, regardless of whether they were exposed or not, he smiled and bowed his hands in return: "Thank you Mr. Nangong, Mr. has both virtue and good reputation, my brother has a lot to rely on! "

"Where, where!" Nangong Lie smiled with a refined style.

Hang Qi asked someone to move the grapefruit in, and after counting, he took out 100 taels of gold and 50 taels of silver for Qianke.

Qian Ke took it and handed out two big peaches from his sleeve.

"I just brought two of them and gave them to the two of you."

Hang Qi's eyes lit up again: "Why are there peaches in this season?"
