Farmer's ancient daily life

Time always flies by quickly, and it is autumn in a blink of an eye.

The melon fields are well served, so when I go to the field to look at it now, it looks like a bumper harvest.

On the other hand, the apples have only just grown a section, and it will take a few years before the stable output. During this time, Fang Mingfeng is planning to devote more energy and time to the melon fields.

After finally harvesting sweet and fragrant melons, Fang Mingfeng couldn't wait to pick one, took it home in his hand, and wanted to give Uncle and Aduqin a taste too.If there are no accidents, they will be able to go to the town market to sell after a while. By then, the family will have more income, and they will be able to prepare more warm clothes for the coming winter.

He thought everything through, pondering in his mind as he walked all the way, completely unaware that the house was bustling right now.

In the small courtyard, Uncle Fang was looking at the donkey in front of him in amazement; "Tsk tsk squirt..." Who would have thought that the family donkey would bring back two donkeys after running out?

Uncle never dared to think about this kind of thing before. Not only did he not dare to think about it, but he also had to educate the juniors in the family not to have such thoughts of getting something for nothing.But ever since A Duqin called him in a hurry this morning, Uncle has been in this kind of fluttering state of mind, his mood is floating around like a cloud, and he can't find a place to settle down.

They all knew that the donkey at home had been lost for a while, and they had encountered it in the woods at that time, but then the donkey came back by itself, and Uncle didn’t think about anything else, only being happy that the donkey finally came home .

Autumn is here, and the woods are much more dangerous than before.This is because many livestock have begun to store food and fat for preparations. If they are still in the woods at this moment, they may not live until the beginning of next spring.

Maybe the donkey thought so too, so he dragged his family and led his wife and children home to look for food.

Uncle couldn't laugh or cry, but was very happy in his heart.There are two more donkeys for no reason, who will be unhappy?

Coincidentally, Fang Mingfeng walked in from the door, and Uncle "sneaked" over: "Look, we have two more donkeys!"

Fang Mingfeng was like a monk who couldn't figure it out, until he saw two donkeys grazing under the shed and heard A Duqin's explanation, then he understood.

Look carefully, this wild donkey looks familiar.

"This is a good thing, let's eat a melon to celebrate!" Fang Mingfeng wanted to sell the Xizhou honey in the melon field to the people in the frontier, and at the moment he was anxiously asking Uncle and Aduqin for their opinions.

He took the knife and opened the melon.

The sweet melon and fruit fragrance came over my face, Uncle took one and put it in front of Aduqin, and he took a piece to taste it himself.

The flesh of the melon is sweet and delicious. One bite is not only extremely cool, but also very thirst-quenching. After eating such a mouthful of melon, the hot weather becomes acceptable.

Uncle nodded while eating: "What's the name of this melon? It's quite delicious. I haven't seen this thing before."

"Xizhou honey." Fang Mingfeng said, "I plan to sell it at the town fair, so as to make money for the family."

"That's the reason. You can do whatever you want. Uncle, I'm old and don't know these things. Just do what you want."

To be honest, Uncle Fang always thought that Fang Mingfeng's farming was just a child's play, but after so many years, he has long understood that these things cannot be forced, as long as he knows in his heart how to proceed just fine.

With uncle's affirmation, Fang Mingfeng finally felt relieved, turned his head and said, "Aduqin, when the time comes, we will go to the town to sell melons together?"

His eyes were shining brightly, and A Duqin stopped when he wanted to refuse, but finally swallowed it back, he nodded and did not speak.

……

The next thing is much simpler, nothing more than picking the ripe melons in the melon field, and then temporarily storing them at home.

After the ripe melons in the melon field are almost picked, it is time to think about the time to go to the market.It just so happens that there are two more donkeys in the house, and I am not afraid that I will not be able to help them by then.

Everything was ready, Fang Mingfeng asked A Duqin, and the two went to the town market together, planning to find out how the town market is able to set up a stall.Otherwise, I am afraid that I will get the news that I can't set up a stall after I pull the melon to the place.

To be on the safe side, it is better to inquire first.

Riding the little donkey, Fang Mingfeng and A Duqin left the small courtyard.

The town market was as lively as ever. After finding a place for the two little donkeys to settle down, the two began to discuss about the stall.

Fang Mingfeng: "This... do we have to find someone to ask, there are no familiar people here, who is the right one to ask?"

A Duqin held back for a long time, and said: "If not..., buy something at a stall, ask the stall owner?"

"That's a good idea."

Fang Mingfeng looked left and right, locked on a small vendor, and called him: "This big brother."

"Huh?" The peddler turned around and saw that someone was looking at the things placed on the stall, and put on a smile in the next second: "What do you want, sir?"

Fang Mingfeng pretended to bargain with the peddler, and then bought it for two copper coins, then pretended to casually ask: "Seeing that there are so many people setting up stalls here, the business should be good, right? Brother, are you here to set up a stall?" Does Tan still have to pay the government?"

The peddler had just opened his shop, and he was very happy. It was nothing important to think about it, and it was nothing to talk about, so he replied casually: "Ham! Don't you know, sir? Come and let me explain to you carefully."

"If you talk about our small village, there shouldn't be so many people in the town fair, but I heard from others that our Dalin Kingdom is going to start a mutual market with the Man Kingdom. This is just the beginning, and we dare not go to that place of life. Wandering around places you don't know well, why don't you just set up a small stall to make money for your family, no, we won't go there, but the barbarians dare to come over!"

Looking in the direction the peddler pointed, Fang Mingfeng and A Duqin happened to be able to see a foreigner with a high nose and blue eyes buying something not far away.

A few years ago, the two countries fought wars, and the people on the frontier also suffered greatly from it, suffering unspeakably.Fortunately, the two countries reached an agreement later that they would not fight each other for 50 years, and the war gradually subsided.

With the flames of war extinguished, the common people naturally lived in peace and contentment.The opening of the mutual market at this moment will not only make the people and officers and soldiers in the frontier richer, but also be on guard against foreign races at all times. Naturally, this method of getting the best of both worlds must be vigorously promoted.

So the opening of the mutual market has changed from dispensable to inevitable.

Fang Mingfeng thought about it, this is also good.Now that the melon fields have finally started to produce, it should be easier to sell them with Huren coming to the market.

"Brother, do you know how to set up a stall on this street?"

The peddler waved his hand: "It's not that simple! Go directly to the government office and give the janitor two coins. They will take people there and set up a stall to pay a deposit of twenty coins to prevent the stall owner from stealing or making trouble on purpose in the future." .”

He looked at the two young men in front of him, and continued: "You don't look like those who will find fault. When you don't set up a stall later, you will get back ten of the twenty cash deposit, and the other ten cash will be filled The cost of government management."

"So that's the case, thank you, big brother." Ten cents is not much, so it's not like he can't take it out.

The peddler chatted with him a lot, Fang Mingfeng felt sorry, so he took out an apple from the basket: "This fruit is sweet for elder brother, we still have something to do, so let's go first."

When the two got the news they wanted to know, they left in a hurry, and the peddler didn't even have time to refuse.

After the two had walked a little further, the peddler looked down at the bright red fruit on the table, and said hesitantly, "This fruit looks pretty good."

Being in the frontier, many fruits and vegetables are grown one by one and killed by the other, so it is impossible to grow them extensively, so there is more meat to eat, otherwise this life will be really hard to survive.

It's been a long time since I haven't seen such a good fruit, the peddler couldn't help swallowing, most of the fruits I met on the mountain before were green and small, and one bite could make my teeth sore, but this one...

One bite, sweet and delicious, full of water, really sweet and thirst-quenching.Resisting the desire to continue eating, the peddler put away the fruit, ready to take it home for his husband to taste.

On the other side, Fang Mingfeng and A Duqin walked all the way and asked questions, and arrived at the official residence smoothly.

A Duqin is obviously not used to being in towns with so many people, and has followed him closely from the beginning until now, without saying much.

Now at the town market, Fang Mingfeng looked at the gatekeeper of the government not far away, slowed down his pace, turned his head and said to A Duqin: "I will give you the handkerchief I bought at that peddler just now."

A Duqin was secretly a little happy, but at the same time a little flustered.After Father and Mother went to Changshengtian, he never received any gifts, not even a blade of grass or a flower by the roadside.

The panic is...he didn't know whether to pick it up or not.The food and lodging are all in the benefactor's house, so how can you accept the benefactor's things?

After staring blankly for a while, A Duqin really didn't know what to say now.

It was Fang Mingfeng who handed him the handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Just take it, it's not something valuable."

He is so embarrassed.Those who didn't know thought it was stuffing money into his arms.It's just a matter of two copper coins. If he didn't know about A Duqin's stuffy nature, he probably would have given up on this matter.

Before he could refuse, Fang Mingfeng strode forward: "Okay, we have to go back quickly after finishing our work, we can't waste time."

In fact, Fang Mingfeng thought in his heart, if he didn't have any money in his hands now, and he couldn't ask Uncle for money, he wouldn't have the face to give away such a gift of two copper coins.

It's just that Aduqin has a good temper and doesn't care about him. If the two copper coins are exchanged for other people, he will definitely be angry with him.

"........."

Seeing the purpose of the two people's visit, the doorman took the copper plate in his hand and took it to the place without saying a word.

After Shun Shun Dang came out of the government office, Fang Mingfeng looked at the wooden sign in his hand and said happily: "Tomorrow we will test the waters!"

A Duqin nodded silently, expressing his acceptance.

Hurrying back home, because the matter was resolved this trip, Fang Mingfeng was in a good mood, and even ate half an extra bowl of dinner.

After eating, I ran non-stop to pack the things that will be used for the next day, carts, donkeys, and the most important Xizhou honey.

... Xizhou honey is waiting to get up early tomorrow morning to pick it, it will have dew and soil, fresh!

Fang Mingfeng hummed a song and went to feed the little donkey, babbling: "Donkey, tomorrow is all up to you, eat more and gather energy, and run faster tomorrow!"
