Datang Institute of Technology

Three days later, the bean sprouts were loaded into the ox cart. This is the only old cow in Xujia Village. It is usually used for farming and for pulling goods in winter. The poor old cow.

There was a bit too much bean sprouts, estimated to be six to seven hundred catties, and the bullock cart couldn't pull them all, but it was fine. The thick men from Xujia Village picked up the bean sprouts with a load.

Not all life bean sprouts are so successful.

A few people looked dejected, and Xu Changsheng knew what the problem was when he asked, so he couldn't hold back halfway, so he took off the wet cloth and looked.

Bean sprouts will not grow when exposed to light.

In their words, they just wanted to see how the fairy technique made the beans grow so fast, and they couldn't see it, so they opened it and took a look.

Xu Changsheng's face turned dark when he heard it, and he said it was not a fairy art, and he was so curious, he deserved to fail.

The bean sprouts have been divided into handfuls overnight by the women in the village and tied up with wheat straw. They are neatly arranged and very beautiful.

These women were very careful when tying, and if one was broken, they would be sad for a long time.

They negotiated that a handful of bean sprouts would cost 3 Wen, which means that the original price of one catty of beans would be sold for five catties.

In three days, the price of beans has increased by five times, which is already a huge profit. As for the labor costs, they are all home-grown bean sprouts, free of charge.

There was a special place reserved for Xu Changsheng in the bullock cart, and he happily climbed into the bullock cart. Dabai would definitely not be able to enter the city, and he was sent to hunt in the back mountain.

As the team set off, Xu Changsheng was so shaken that his butt hurt. The muddy snowy road was not much different from no road.

But these are nothing, they are all concealed under the excitement of seeing the prosperous Chang'an.

Xujia Village was about half a day's walk from Chang'an City, and they set off before dawn.

It was already noon when we arrived in Chang'an.

Xu Changsheng followed behind his great grandfather Xu Wenyuan in a daze.

"Changsheng follow closely, be careful not to be abducted by human teeth." The great grandfather said.

Xu Changsheng replied, looking at the streets on both sides with his eyes shining brightly.

The crowd was surging and very lively. It was very exciting to see the life of the people of Tang Dynasty thousands of years ago. From time to time, some gadgets could make his eyes shine.

Teahouses, restaurants, pawnshops, and workshops abound.

But, what happened to the potholed road under your feet?This is the city of Chang'an, and only the Suzaku Avenue that we walked through just now is paved with stone slabs, which is a little smoother.

What about the horse manure on the road?Do you want the appearance of the city?

Does the waiter in the restaurant have to change his habit of pouring domestic sewage at the door?

It is now the third year of Zhenguan, and it is only a few years away from the prosperous age of Zhenguan recorded in the books.

Because the great grandfather Xu Wenyuan wanted to take Xu Changsheng with him, the two fell behind in the team.

Xu Changsheng stood in front of a small stall selling scallion pancakes. This is the authentic Datang scallion pancake. In his last life, apart from scientific research, he was more interested in food, and he had eaten a lot of food from all over the world.

The great grandfather Xu Wenyuan next to him watched it interestingly. As expected, he was still a child, and he couldn't walk when he saw food.

Touching his sleeve pocket, he said, "Changsheng, do you want to eat scallion pancakes? Grandfather still has three Wen coins with him, so you can buy a vegetarian pancake, and you can add meat for five Wen."

If it was in the past, he probably would have been reluctant to buy it, but now that he thinks about it, a handful of bean sprouts can be sold for three Wen, and buying a cake for the child is nothing.

Xu Changsheng straightened his head.

A few small businessmen with meat pies were eating next to them, snorting coldly, probably looking down on country folks who have no money.

Xu Changsheng didn't care, just took the pancakes he bought and ate them.

But, it was so hard, I knocked my teeth.

How can this pancake be made like this?

Can't help but look at the little businessman who looks like he's eating some delicious food with contempt, he has no taste, a countryman.

The little businessman was taken aback.

"Grandfather, here are the pancakes for you."

Xu Wenyuan said with a satisfied smile, "Changsheng is really filial."

Xu Changsheng: "..."

If he said that he disliked it too hard, would he be beaten?

When I came to West Market, it was winter, and there were no people in the vegetable market.

"This..." Great grandfather Xu Wenyuan was stunned, he forgot about this situation.

"What should we do now?" asked the clansmen. They were sure that the bean sprouts would be sold well, but someone had to know about it.

The great grandfather used to be a doctor of Guozijian, and he planted some crops after he became a farmer. He didn't know how to do business, let alone other people.

I was a little dumbfounded for a while.

Xu Changsheng covered his head and felt a headache.

In ancient times, officials were divided into agriculture, industry and commerce, and the so-called interlacing was like a mountain.

Looking at a group of people who came with hope, but now are anxious to pick their feet.

Xu Changsheng tugged on the sleeves of the eldest grandfather, "Grandfather, didn't we carry the burden? Just let them carry the burden and knock on the doors of those rich people. As for the things on the ox cart, we can sell them all the way. "

Xu Changsheng divided the ways of selling vegetables into two, one is to deliver vegetables directly to the door, and the other is to sell them in the same way.

The great grandfather slapped his thigh, "It's still smart to live forever, our bean sprouts don't have to worry about selling at all, so they will definitely sell."

Xu Changsheng: "..."

Is that smart?When he was a child, he had seen people carrying burdens to sell things door-to-door, but they just turned from gourds to gourds.

Seeing several clansmen happily leaving with their loads, Xu Changsheng hurriedly said, "Remember to tell them that we will still have bean sprouts for sale in West Market in three days' time."

Repeat customers are very important, and they should not have to carry the burden of selling next time they come.

Now there is only an ox cart of bean sprouts left.

The bullock cart started to go on the road, but the people around looked curiously,

Xu Changsheng rolled his eyes, and secretly whispered to a clan uncle.

Uncle Clan blushed, "How embarrassing!"

Xu Changsheng narrowed his eyes, "Oh, do you want to sell the bean sprouts sooner?"

Helpless, the clan uncle opened his voice and shouted, "Selling bean sprouts, small fresh vegetables in winter, come and have a look..."

Not to mention, this uncle's voice is quite loud.

Like a drop of oil dripping from water, the people around looked over.

"What? Fresh vegetables? Real or fake?"

"Isn't it a lie? In such a cold day, what kind of vegetables can germinate?"

"Whatever, go and have a look. This winter is too long, and my mouth is almost tasteless."

No one from Xujia Village needs to explain that the bean sprouts on the cart are white and tender, and they cannot be faked.

"My God, it's really bean sprouts, how did they grow them?"

"It's too clean, it's like it's not from the farm."

"Nonsense, can vegetables take root if they are not planted in the field?"

"But... Even if you wash one by one, it won't be so clean."

A lot of people surrounded them noisily.

"With three pennies, the fresh vegetables in winter can be eaten as soon as they are fried, crisp and refreshing!" The Xu family said according to the plan.

"It's really strange that bean sprouts are planted in winter!"

"Buy or not, let me know if you don't buy."

"Don't squeeze, I'll buy it, I'll buy it back and give my mother-in-law a taste."

The people in Chang'an City are indeed much richer than Xujia Village, and the price of a handful of bean sprouts is only one cake, which is rare.

It didn't take long to sell a lot.

The people in Xujia Village were overjoyed, the sale was really fast, and with the money handed over, their faces were full of hopeful smiles for the future.

Some people cried secretly. With money, they can buy food. With food, the family and children don't have to eat porridge without rice.

But before I had time to be sentimental, I was overwhelmed by the money handed over, and I just went in a hurry, so there was no time to be sentimental.

"How did you grow these bean sprouts in such a cold day?" someone asked.

The people in Xujia Village smiled and didn't answer. Even an idiot knew that this was their way of survival, so how could they tell others?

Besides, when going out, the patriarch gave orders, and this was to be passed on to the descendants of the Xu family.

The bullock cart only drove two streets, and it was sold quickly. The price is not very expensive, and it is a rare thing that the only family can't make fakes. Of course, it sells well.

After hearing the news, there are still a lot of people who didn't buy it.

"In three days, we will continue to sell bean sprouts in the West Market. Please take care of us when the time comes."

After a while, even the uncle who carried the burden came back.

The burden is empty, the face is full of smiles, and it is sold out at first glance.

"This is four hundred Wen coins. Uncle, count them quickly." The clan uncle handed over the money to the grandfather and said happily.

Xu Changsheng was taken aback, four hundred wen?

There are two baskets in one load, a total of two hundred bean sprouts, which I counted clearly when I went out. In terms of the price of three yuan a handful, it should be six hundred yuan.

Why are there two hundred words missing?

It seems that this family uncle is not a person who will embezzle.

Xu Changsheng asked curiously, "Uncle Clan, did you lose money on the way?"

Uncle Clan was taken aback, "How is that possible? This is money, and I've covered it tightly."

Xu Changsheng was even more puzzled, "But a load of bean sprouts can sell for 600 Wen."

The great grandfather Xu Wenyuan next to him thought of something, his expression changed, and he counted with his fingers.

Xu Changsheng was stunned for a moment, this still needs to be calculated with fingers?

Suddenly, the great grandfather slapped his thigh and said to the clan uncle, "Who did you sell the bean sprouts to? That person cheated you of 200 Wen. I have long heard that some people in Chang'an City like to bully honest people who don't know how to count... "

Xu Changsheng: "..."

It took me a long time to figure it out. Arithmetic is one of the six arts of a gentleman. Although it is the last one, it has never been valued.

The clan uncle's face turned dark, "It's the Changsun's mansion, and his majestic uncle's mansion actually cheated me of this money, I'll ask him to settle the score..."

Only then did the great grandfather come to his senses, and shouted, "You come back, the Changsun's Mansion can't do such a shameful thing, it's probably because the servants deceive you that you don't know how to count."

Going to stab that servant now, the Changsun Mansion must beat him to death because of his face, but the Xu family may not be worth the loss if they lose face...

The great grandfather sighed, "Forget it, I have learned a lesson. I usually tell you that although our Xu family has changed from literature to agriculture, we still need to study. At least we must be able to write our own names and know numbers."

Xu Changsheng was amused to see it, and the uncle of the family blushed from the training, and muttered in a low voice, "I can't afford to eat, how can I have time to study."

In ancient times, reading was a very expensive thing, because pen, ink, paper and inkstone were not affordable by the poor.

Xu Changsheng thought that his great grandfather would come to him to make a theory because of his personality, but he didn't expect to choose not to care about it. It seems that he is not the sour scholar who doesn't know how to adapt in his impression.

Taking their current Xujia Village to embarrass the uncle's mansion, they don't need to think about the consequences.

The great grandfather trained people for a while, and then looked at Xu Changsheng, "Changsheng, you actually know numbers?"

The corners of Xu Changsheng's mouth raised upwards. Among other things, as a Ph.D. in physics, it would be a shame to describe him as someone who knows numbers. He said, "Grandfather, in arithmetic, I can beat Chang'an invincible."

With a proud face.

This kid really dares to say it, but it is indeed a bit of a skill to be able to see that the accounts are wrong at the first glance.

The great grandfather thought for a while and said, "Your great grandfather is indeed lacking in arithmetic. After you go back, you will make up lessons for your brothers in the clan, so as not to suffer from such a disadvantage in the future."

Xu Changsheng: "..."

Grandfather, have you forgotten that I am only four years old!

Not to mention, Xu Wenyuan really ignored his age when he said this.
