Tang Qingming inquired secretly for two days before he found out that there was a wharf in a rural town in the suburbs. There were many empty warehouses there, but the location was very remote.

There are other places, but the distribution is uneven, and they are all close to the pier. The good locations have been rounded up long ago, and the rest are all east and west. They are suitable for small businessmen with few goods, like Tang Qing. Of course it won't work, it's too laborious, and it's too conspicuous in the crowd.

However, the small harbor is a little remote, and it is difficult for larger ships to dock, and it is difficult to find workers. Everywhere they come and go is deserted. Usually, there is no personal cigarette. Only occasionally some merchants really can’t find a place to put their goods. Where will you go.

After having breakfast in the inn, Tang Qing rented a carriage and headed straight to that remote town.

"I said, what are you doing there, sir?" The driver of the carriage was very curious. Few people go there, and it looks like a barren mountain. Seeing Tang Qing's fragile appearance, he couldn't bear it. I couldn't help asking a few questions curiously.

Tang Qing was not surprised when he got into the carriage and heard the driver's question. A normal person would ask a question or two. He had thought about it before and made a draft in his mind, and then replied: "I heard it's quite quiet over there. Yes, I feel bored after staying in the city for a long time, so go to the countryside for two days to be quiet."

The coachman nodded, seeing that Tang Qingsheng looked like a young man, and he was well dressed. He was probably bored in the city, and wanted to go to the countryside to relax. He had also taken on such jobs before, so he didn't feel suspicious anymore. .

After Tang Qing got into the car, he really acted like a son-in-law who went to relax. He took out all kinds of food and wine from the food box, poured them all by himself, and occasionally gave some to the driver, and looked at the car from time to time. The scenery outside the window.

After departing from the most prosperous area of ​​Miaocheng, I started to move to the suburbs. The number of pedestrians and vehicles on the road gradually decreased, and the air was much less noisy and more fresh.

The coachman got Tang Qing's food, and the money he gave for this trip was rich enough, so he slowed down the speed of the carriage, picked a good road, and tried his best to go around the potholes on the road, making the car very crowded. smooth.

The coachman especially boasted that he understood the hearts of these sons and brothers, and he just wanted to have fun when he came out to play. As long as the entertainment was done, the reward would definitely not be small, not to mention that the one he was pulling now was a generous master.

Arriving in a small town leisurely, Tang Qing sent the driver back after paying the fare and reward.

The population of this small town is really small, even colder than Wenshui County. There are only two or three sellers on the street, and there are only two or three pedestrians.

Tang Qing came in a carriage, and naturally someone paid attention to him. He looked up and then lowered his head to go about his own business. Although this small town is remote, it is not unusual for a few people to visit from time to time.

"Seller, may I ask where the pier is?" Tang Qing got out of the car and asked the shopkeeper of the nearest tea shop with his things.

"Walk two or three miles over there and you will be there. Young people, you have to be careful. There are many snakes and insects on the road, and there are few people walking on that road." The shopkeeper looked at Tang Qing, seeing that he was carrying tools in his hand, Thinking that he was going fishing, he couldn't help reminding him a few more words.

Tang Qing bowed his hands to the shopkeeper and said, "Thank you so much."

Walk along the road pointed by the store. It is indeed not easy to walk on the road. The grass is as tall as a person. If you miss a step carefully, you will fall into the ditch. There are no people around, and you will die inexplicably. here.

Tang Qing carefully pulled the grass on the road, and found a thick branch to hit the surrounding grass, so as not to accidentally get a snake out of it. Fortunately, there was still a road here, and Yingying Yueyue could still see it. To the shadow of the road, as long as you don't go astray, nothing major will happen.

After walking for about half a stick of incense, Tang Qing saw a deserted small harbor surrounded by rows of warehouses. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and it was considered that he had arrived.

After crossing a small ditch, I came to this row of warehouses and looked around. It seems that people often come here. There is obviously no grass around, and there are many traces of ships staying there.

Looking at this row of warehouses, Tang Qing was satisfied, but he didn't know where to find the owner of the warehouse.

"Crack." There was a sound of a branch being trampled.Tang Qing's brows twitched in his heart, and he couldn't help bursting into anger: "Who, sneaky, come out."

"Young man, you have a good temper." At this moment, a middle-aged man jumped out from the bottom of the harbour, looking only forty or fifty on his face.

Tang Qing was surprised, where did this person come from?Walking to the harbor and looking down, there is a trail below, and there is a fishing boat parked beside it.

"Uncle, I misunderstood." It seemed that he was a fisherman, not what he had misunderstood. Tang Qing apologized to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man squinted his eyes at Tang Qing, and asked suspiciously: "What are you doing here, kid? I have been fishing here all year round and have rarely seen anyone coming from this road, and your accent is not a local. Bar."

"To be honest, Uncle, I came here this time just to find out how the warehouse here is rented. I didn't expect to meet anyone along the way, except you, Uncle." Tang Qing confessed honestly when he asked him.

Tang Qing probably guessed that this middle-aged man must have something to do with this warehouse, otherwise he wouldn't be fishing here all year round. Fishing is true, but it doesn't hinder the care of this place.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't guess correctly, he must know the owner of this warehouse after fishing here all year round, and explaining to him why he came here will point out the way.

Sure enough, after Tang Qing finished speaking, the middle-aged man smiled and said, "Do you really want to rent this warehouse?"

Tang Qing nodded and said, "Yes, I just don't know where to find the owner of this warehouse, and I don't know if you know, uncle."

"Hahaha, don't need to look for it. I just don't know how much you want to rent. My place is remote but the rent is not cheap. Young man, you don't look like a rich man." The middle-aged man laughed at Tang Qing Said twice.

Tang Qing also smiled at him and said, "Uncle, I don't think you look like a tenant, and if I want to rent, I must rent them all."

After Tang Qing finished speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled, and the middle-aged man said again: "It's interesting, young man."

After learning the identity of this middle-aged man, Tang Qing screamed in his heart, as expected, if he was really an ordinary fisherman, he would not be able to fish in this area all year round. How many can you catch if all the fish run away?

And the boss of the small town just now, if there is really no one here, would he feel relieved to let Tang Qing come here alone?I'm afraid it's also because I think there are people here to take care of me, so I can rest assured.

"I don't know how much the rent is. I haven't asked the uncle's name yet." Tang Qing asked the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then said, "My surname is Jia. You can call me Boss Jia or Uncle Jia. The minimum rent here is this amount."

Boss Jia stretched out his finger and made a two.Seeing him like this, Tang Qing murmured a few words in a low voice: "Boss Jia, a fake boss? It's really interesting." Especially when he said a 'yeah' with a serious face, which made people want to laugh .

"200 taels?" Tang Qing asked uncertainly, suppressing the smile in his heart.

Boss Jia nodded to Tang Qing.

"I don't know the rules when I first came here, so please don't take offense to Uncle Jia. I don't know if the 200 taels are rented for a day or a month or there is another calculation." Tang Qing was stunned after seeing him nodding, not knowing what calculation it was.

Boss Jia replied solemnly: "Of course it's January. I can't compare it to every inch of land in the city. 200 taels is already considered a high price."

Tang Qing really wanted to stick it on Boss Jia's forehead to see if he had a fever in his head. How could he say that what he offered was already a high price? Can't he bargain?

"Okay, let's make a deal." Tang Qing really couldn't figure out Boss Jia's brain circuit, so he didn't want to. He didn't bother to bargain with him. Don't worry too much.

Boss Jia was also surprised when Tang Qing took out the bank note from his pocket to pay, it was so easy?He was still waiting for him to negotiate the price, so he deliberately shouted twice as much, but he didn't expect the other party to pay directly without even counter-offering!

It's completely different from the people who came here before. The 100 taels that came last time were cut into 50 taels. If it wasn't for seeing that the warehouse was here for half a year and couldn't open a few, he wouldn't have rented it out to him. But has the market changed in two months?

Boss Jia took the bank note with a complicated expression, and handed Tang Qing a bunch of keys. If he had known that this man was so generous, he should have doubled the price, so it didn't matter if he opened it in the next few years. , It's a pity that I'm too quick to talk.

Seeing Boss Jia's resentful expression, Tang Qing thought to himself, could it be that there is less regret?Fortunately, I gave the money quickly, otherwise, if he changed his mind again, he would suffer a big loss.

After collecting the money, Boss Jia coughed twice and said, "Then don't disturb the young master's pleasure here, I will go back to fishing, if the young master needs to deliver the key in advance, put it in the tea shop in the small town above. Can."

Tang Qing stared blankly at Boss Jia rowing away quickly.He was a little confused, why did he feel that the whole thing was a bit beyond his expectation.

"Boss Jia? Fake boss?" Tang Qing muttered, suddenly his body shook, and he thought to himself: "No, is it really a fake boss?"

Tang Qing took the key and went to open the warehouse doors one by one. Seeing that all of them could be opened, his legs regained some strength, which scared him to death. He thought he had run into a liar.

Sitting weakly in front of the warehouse door and resting for a while, Tang Qing checked around for a while, and when he was sure that no one would appear around, he closed the warehouse door tightly, turned and entered the space.

The space is still the same, with medicinal herbs planted, grain planted with grain, and livestock raised with livestock.

Tang Qing came to the warehouse of the space and began to pack grain. Before he came, he had bought many sacks, and now he needed to fill them with grain.

After Tang Qing packed a hundred and eighty bags, he was so tired that he sat on the ground and collapsed. He was the only one, pretending to be him, and pulling him.He felt a little sorry for himself if he didn't blackmail that prefect Lu properly after he went back.

Tang Qing misses Zhou Qing so much at this moment. If he was there, the two of them would not be so tired helping each other. It's a pity that I can't tell him the secret of space. It's really a great pity in life.

Boss Jia: How about I run faster, in case you regret it?
