The Concubine of Crossing

Zhou Wenqing thought that the job was over after buying a good house, but as soon as he went out, Luo Laibao asked with a smile, "Cousin, where are the other private teeth? They say shop around, we have to look at a few more to make a comparison, right?" ?”

Zhou Wenqing: "..." Turning his head to look at Mo Song silently, Mo Song's body froze, trying to recall whether he had heard of this memory.

Li Xiao lightly poked Luo Laibao's waist, signaling him not to bully his cousin anymore.

Luo Laibao then turned to look at his servant, "Little Douzi, didn't you say that there are some good shops? Let's go and have a look."

Xiaodouzi replied yes, then turned around and began to lead the way.

Zhou Wenqing: "..." If I remember correctly, this guy has been here in Lanzhou City for less than three days, right?

Thinking of the strength of other servants, and looking at his own servant, Zhou Wenqing suddenly became angry again, stretched out his folding fan and slammed him on the head.

Mo Song held his head, with an aggrieved expression on his face. Normally, the young master would look for bookstores or teahouses. He knows all kinds of beautiful forests and gardens, but who knows that today he suddenly wants to find a tooth shop... He knows that an official tooth is already very good .

Xiaodouzi led the way, and after walking for a while, he walked into a busy street, which was different from the street that Zhou Wenqing led with a few people. The people on this street were mostly dressed in coarse linen, and their living conditions were obviously worse than before. The people on those streets are much worse.

Zhou Wenqing understood a little bit, these streets were indeed rarely set foot by him, no wonder Mo Song didn't have the slightest impression.

Xiaodouzi entered the door familiarly, and the matchmaker saw him, her eyes lit up, "Yo, brother, are you sure you want to buy this time?"

Xiaodouzi smiled and said, "The young master wants to come and have a look, you have to show your sincerity."

The prostitute immediately welcomed the person in enthusiastically, serving tea and water, and then went to take out the map and samples of the shop, and analyzed the pros and cons of the shop for several people.

Of course, people who sell things naturally pick up good ones and say, just believe one out of ten sentences.

The prostitute took out a dozen or so shops, and in her words, all of them were the best.

Xiaodouzi smiled without saying a word, and crossed out a few from those shops.Following his movements, the prostitute's pupils shrank slightly, the fan in her hand covered half of her face, and she said with a half-smile, "Young brother is not kind, you lied to me that you are a foreigner!"

Xiaodouzi also laughed, "It's the aunt, you are not kind, and the shops with problems are also stuffed in."

The prostitute was not embarrassed, and quickly collected the samples of those shops, and then said, "Okay, okay, since you are an expert, if you like it, just tell me, I'll make it cheaper for you."

Luo Laibao glanced at several shops, then suddenly raised his head and asked Li Xiao, "Xiao Xiao, do you want to open a bun shop?"

Li Xiao thought for a while, then shook his head.Luo Laibao estimated that it was impossible for him to guard the bun shop all the time, so the shop would have to fall on the children.

The children are still young, so we can't let them sell buns all the time.

Luo Laibao thought about it, and selected a few shops, some in the downtown area, some in the side streets, some in the rich people's street, and some in the common people's street.

Li Xiao couldn't understand, but he didn't say anything.

Luo Laibao gave the money again readily, and Zhou Wenqing couldn't help reminding again, "A shop is different from a house. If the surrounding environment and location are not good, there is no way to change it."

Luo Laibao gave him a meaningful look, and when he went out, he said, "Little Douzi has already seen those shops. I still trust Xiaodouzi's vision. If he thinks there is no problem, it will be all right." .”

Zhou Wenqing stared at Xiaodouzi dumbfounded again, and couldn't help but look back at his servant. Mo Song held his breath, looked at his nose, nose, nose and heart, pretending that he didn't exist.

Zhou Wenqing took a deep breath, and sure enough, people were more deadly than others, and goods were tossed away.

Mo Song silently took a few steps back, trying to avoid his master's overly resentful eyes.

Several people were about to walk out of this house, when they suddenly heard the sound of arguing from a shop, they didn't want to pay attention to it at first, but the shop was in front of them, so it was hard not to hear it.

"How can you do this, it's obviously not the same price in previous years!"

"Previous years are previous years, this year is the price, do you want to sell it or not!"

"It's clearly agreed, you are maliciously lowering the price!"

"Haha, the market price is like this. If you don't sell it, some people will sell it! Walk around, if you don't sell it, don't affect our business here!"

As soon as these words came out, the two men were thrown out of the shop, and there were two loads of baskets thrown out together with them. Because of the fall, the rice inside was thrown all over the ground.

And as luck would have it, the place where the two fell out happened to be in the way of several people.

Almost subconsciously, Luo Laibao dragged Li Xiao back, fearing that the two men would hit them, and when he retreated to a safe distance, he saw that they were two dealers.

One is younger, about 30 to 40 years old, and the other is older, maybe in his [-]s.

The young one helped the old man up and asked, "Uncle, are you alright?"

The uncle shook his head, and silently began to pick up the grain that fell out of the basket.

Li Xiao patted Luo Laibao on the back. It didn't matter if he was conscious, then he walked over and knelt down to help pick it up. Both the uncle and the man thanked him, "Thank you, thank you!"

Luo Laibao also bent down, grabbed the rice to help put it in, and asked casually, "Uncle, are you selling rice?"

The man next to him nodded hurriedly, "Yeah, our farmers don't have much to sell, we just make a living by selling some grain every year. But this year... hey..."

Luo Laibao was curious, "What happened this year? Could it be that the harvest was not good?"

The man shook his head, "Isn't that right? The weather is beautiful this year, and the harvest in the fields is good. After paying the tax, there is still a lot left over. I thought I would have a good year after selling the grain... but I didn't expect that the harvest was good. However, the price of food has dropped. It would be fine if it dropped a little, but this time it dropped by [-]% directly!

If this is sold, let's not have a good year this year. I guess I can't even afford new clothes... My baby's clothes didn't fit last year. My wife found old clothes and made them up for him. But, seeing that he has grown taller again this year, the family can't even find the cloth for him to mend..."

As the man spoke, his eyes turned red.A big man couldn't keep his wife and children fed and warm, which obviously made him very guilty.

Not to mention that Luo Laibao frowned, Li Xiao also frowned, he understood the matter of too many goods and lower prices, after all, he still knew that there is nothing wrong with business.

But this directly lowered the price by half, and it was indeed too much.

At this time, almost all the grain on the ground had been cleaned up, and the remaining grains could not be picked up. The old uncle bowed down to thank a few people, and was about to call the men to leave.

Luo Laibao suddenly said, "Old man, since you can't sell your food, why don't you send it to my family... Our family just needs to buy food... Well, how about selling us at [-]% of last year's price?"

The big man immediately nodded happily, "Yes, yes! Good man, where is your home? We will send it to you right away!"

The old man was also very surprised, but he was obviously very happy, and the wrinkled wrinkles on his face seemed to be less.

So there were two more people on the way back. Li Xiao originally wanted to help carry it, but the old man waved his hand and refused.As soon as he put the burden on his shoulders, he carried the basket firmly on his shoulders. He walked like flying, no slower than those empty-handed ones.

Li Xiao pretended to be two steps behind, and reached for Luo Laibao's fingers stealing Mimi's hand.He'd wanted to do that as early as dental practice.

He felt that his lover seemed to be a different person today. Is it true that the man who works hard is the prettiest?

As long as he thinks that this person is his, he will feel a great sense of satisfaction in his heart, making him want to touch him, rub him, and even kiss him...

Of course, since the location was wrong, he just touched it and rubbed it.

Sensing the sudden increase in temperature beside him, Luo Laibao was stunned for a moment, and when he realized that Li Xiao touched him, he suddenly opened his eyes wide.

The sudden ecstasy in his heart made him stretch out his hand without thinking, and grabbed Li Xiao's hand tightly.

Li Xiao: "..." He just wanted to steal Mimi's teasing, but he didn't expect to be caught.

At this time, it wasn't easy for him to hold back, and he didn't want to hold back, so he leaned closer to Luo Laibao. Anyway, his sleeves were big enough, so as long as he wasn't staring, no one would pay attention... right?

Zhou Wenqing, who watched the whole process from behind: "..."

He suddenly wanted to find someone, what should he do?Speaking of the girl his mother recently showed him, why not just choose a decent one and marry him?

Zhou Wenqing was dreaming in the back, and the two in front had already walked away quickly, Mo Song reminded in a low voice, "My lord, Biao lord, they have already gone far away..."

Only then did Zhou Wenqing wake up, and hurriedly followed.When he arrived, the food had already been placed at the entrance of the inn, the waiter was a little dumbfounded, it was the first time he saw someone staying in the inn and buying food.

Luo Laibao had asked Xiaodouzi to pay the money, and after thinking about it, he asked, "Old man, do you still have a lot of grain to sell?"

Hearing what he said, the man nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, the price of grain is too low, and many of us are not willing to sell it...We have no choice but to bring some over here to try, but we did not expect to meet a good person .”

As he said that, he looked at Luo Laibao with a pair of expectant eyes, Luo Laibao's black line... It's hard for such a big man to put on such an expression.He nodded, "Brother, please leave your address. If I'm free these days, I'll go and have a look."

The man was immediately happy, and nodded again and again, but there was a little problem when leaving the address.Neither the man nor the uncle could read, so Zhou Wenqing borrowed a pen and paper from the inn to write it down.

The things were sold, and the two dealers walked out happily. The old uncle thought something was wrong, and whispered something to the man, and the man ran back quickly, "Good man, my uncle said that our place is too remote. You probably won’t be able to find it, let me come here and wait for you tomorrow.”

Zhou Wenqing asked casually, "My cousin said that he would go when he is free. If you come tomorrow, if my cousin is not free, would you run away in vain?"

The man said naively, "It's okay, I'll go fast, I'll come back the day after tomorrow if a good person doesn't have time, and I'll come back the day after tomorrow if I don't have time..."

Zhou Wenqing was speechless immediately, he wanted to praise him for his persistence.
