Another World Baixin
Chapter 68 Chapter 68
Bai Xin wanted to dig an underground secret room, but his family didn't understand, so he asked Lao Tong to help him get the blueprints, and he, Ah Shui and Lin Da were busy with the matter.Since it is going to be a secret room, the entrance cannot be conspicuous.With a big mouth and a big belly, a hole big enough for their family of four was dug in the underground part, and the passage and walls were covered with wooden boards, and the whole space was supported by wood.
Remembering that bamboo charcoal can dehumidify and absorb dust, Bai Xin asked Lao Tong to buy some bamboo charcoal and prepare to pile it in the basement.This thing is very expensive, and only wealthy people can afford it. Bai Xin didn't dare to buy more. The secret room was only built for emergencies. Who would like to run down there to stay? If bamboo charcoal is used to store food, then there is no need. After a little calculation, it can be concluded that it is not cost-effective to buy bamboo charcoal at a high price.
Hurrying quickly, relying on Lao Tong's assistance and Bai Xin's physical strength, they managed to create a secret room in a few days.The entrance is under Qin's canopy bed. The edge of the bed made of wood extends downwards to a blank space, on which are carved beautiful flowers. There is only a narrow gap under the bed, and you have to lie down and climb in to get in.Therefore, the small space inside is very dark. Even if there is a large living person hidden inside, it is difficult to see from the outside, and it is even more difficult to find that the bottom is actually empty.
After the basement was built, Bai Xin could read books in peace.Ah Shui liked the purple-red sugarcane that Lao Tong gave him; so Qin Shi cut off the parts with small buds on the head and tail branches of the sugarcane, and while Bai Xin and the other three were around, she planned to plant these in the long In the vegetable garden.
Lin Da sent Qin Shi back to the village, Ah Shui was looking at the shop, and Bai Xin sat with him and read a collection of poems.Since the development of Changjia Food Shop, it has not only sold meat velvet and meat velvet powder, but also mainly sold dried meat, dried fruit, and snacks.Dried meat includes meat velvet, meat velvet powder, and dried fish. The dried fish is purchased from the fishing village where Zhou Lang lives.Now the store has a bit of a reputation.Huanyang Town is located on the edge of an outflowing river, which runs from west to east to the sea and never returns, so there is a small wharf in Huanyang Town.Let’s not talk about the boats at the end here, let’s just say that the passing ships occasionally stop here before arriving at the Shancheng Wharf, either to save costs, disembark here and go by land; or to avoid the search of the Shancheng Wharf patrol.Therefore, there are quite a few merchants coming and going in Huan Yang Town, and some of them have come to Chang's Restaurant to buy things a few times, and this is how the reputation spread.
Today Changliushui received a special guest.This person's head was tightly wrapped with a black cloth, and no hair was exposed. It didn't look like a man in the village with his hair coiled on his head during summer work, but it gave people the impression that he was bald.However, judging from his behavior of trying to eat dried meat, he is not a vegetarian practitioner.
"This one is very good!" The black-turban customer was very happy, raised his hand, and ordered a dozen or so kinds of food in the blink of an eye, "Each kind of food is ten catties!"
Ah Shui was pleasantly surprised to meet such a generous guest.He made a rough estimate, and there were not enough foods on the outside, so he had to say to Bai Xin, "Ah Xin, take a look for me, I'll go in to get something and come out right away."
Hearing this, Bai Xin raised her head and closed the book by the way. Seeing him standing up, Ah Shui hurried to the back to get food without waiting for him to say anything.
"Dear guest, please sit here for a moment, we will greet you right away!" Bai Xin said politely to the black scarf, and let him sit on the table and chairs arranged for the guests.
The black scarf sat down indifferently, and Bai Xin immediately poured him a cup of tea.Unexpectedly, the black scarf picked it up and poured it down in one gulp. When it was over, his eyes lit up, and he ordered to Bai Xin, "One more bowl!"
Bai Xin was stunned for a moment, but did not correct him, but still poured him a glass.It's just that he felt strange in his heart, this man's accent is very special, and his official speech is not very accurate.Everyone in the village speaks dialect, and only the townspeople who deal with merchants in the town can speak official Chinese, but they still speak the local dialect in private.If Bai Xin hadn't used someone else's body and had a little language memory, he wouldn't have been able to understand what the villagers said when he first came, and he didn't know this until he came into contact with more town residents.
Ah Shui was afraid that such a big guest would leave without waiting, so he quickly took out the stocks in the house, and gave ten crock pots to the black scarf for ten catties of each item.
After the black scarf counted, he nodded, took out a few silver notes with a denomination of ten taels and broken silver to pay the bill.Bai Xin took it and passed it to Ah Shui, and then he asked the black scarf kindly: "Is your car parked outside? Do you need to help you move it? Or where do you live, I can send it to you ?”
While talking, he saw that the black scarf took out two large net pockets from a cloth bag he was carrying, and put ten jars into them, five on each side.Then, under the shocked gazes of Bai Xin and Ah Shui, the black scarf picked up the ten jars with both hands at the same time, walked out easily onto the street, and quickly disappeared around the corner at the end of the street.
Bai Xin was the first to come back to his senses. Seeing that Ah Shui was still in a daze, he felt jealous, stretched out his hand to pull Ah Shui in, and said, "Isn't it just lifting fifty catties with both hands at the same time? You can mention it, just look at me."
Ah Shui mercilessly laughed at him: "That man was stupid just now, don't be like him, it's not like our family doesn't have a carriage, why do you have to carry it like this yourself!"
This idea was really unexpected, Bai Xin rubbed Ah Shui's face dumbfounded.
When the school was closed, Bai Xin met some old classmates to play in the fishing village.On the appointed day, the Guo brothers came to Bai Xin's house early to guard, and even helped Qin family greet guests in the shop and make Qin family happy.The Guo brothers are indeed very good at winning the favor of the elderly, provided that they are their own elders or the elders of someone they approve of, otherwise, in the eyes of others, the two brothers are too annoying.
Bai Xin asked Chang Liushui to go with him to play and relax, and to fish seafood by the way—after that, he would not be able to dig meaty sea oysters.Ah Shui was thinking about the big fur cape he made for him—it took a long time to dry the fur until it was almost dry, so he ignored Bai Xin and just asked for Ah Jin from him.
Feeling that he was not as favored by Ah Shui as the snake, Bai Xin felt upset and secretly tried to tie Ah Jin's slender body in a knot.Such a stupid and cruel act was discovered by Chang Liushui in time, he rescued Ah Jin, took advantage of Qin Shi and Lin Da not paying attention, kissed Bai Xin, and comforted him: "Next time we go to play at home, do we bring goodbye?" Well, forget about it today, maybe when you come back, you can wear the beautiful clothes I made for you!"
Bai Xin was slightly embarrassed, and persuaded Ah Shui, "Don't do needlework at night, it's too taxing for your eyes, or you can light a few more candles instead of oil lamps, and you won't be able to afford candles at home."
"Understood, they are urging you to leave quickly." Ah Shui pushed him out and watched him drive away in the carriage before turning around.
Every time I follow Zhou Lang to fish for seafood, there is a rule. Bai Xin will not come when there is a lot of shipments, otherwise he will be suspected of grabbing things with Zhou Lang and the others.Zhou Lang would not mind if Bai Xin brought people here at the end of the oyster digging period. Zhou Lang even built a bunk specially for the guests who came to his house to sleep. Sleep in the open air around a campfire.Correspondingly, Bai Xin and the others will bring him some earthen instruments, and the Zhou family especially likes potato oil, which is not produced by the sea.
The Guo brothers came to play more, unlike Bai Xin, Gu Wenrui, and He Maoxun who wanted to get some seafood home.As soon as the two brothers arrived at Zhou's house, they argued about how to play, eat and drink at night.
Roasting over a fire, drinking wine, grilling fish and shrimp, telling a few stories and playing small games, a group of men made a lot of noise.If it wasn't for getting up early tomorrow, I'm afraid that Bai Xin, Zhou Lang and others would continue to play with the Guo brothers.
Bai Xin drank, but he had a special physique and was not drunk at all.Lying on the bunk, the four classmates next to him were already sound asleep, Bai Xin turned over, his mind was in a mess.
It was easy to fall asleep, but the sound of the waves outside became louder and louder.Bai Xin covered her ears with the quilt irritably, thinking: The tide won't be rising so late, right?
! —It doesn't sound like a rising tide.Bai Xin sat up suddenly, opened the window and looked carefully at the dark sea outside.The waves rolled one by one, taking advantage of the night, as if pushing something to the shore.
Bai Xin stared desperately at the objects surging on the sea surface in the darkness, his mind changed, and his complexion changed drastically.He jumped out of the door and shouted at Zhou Lang's room: "A Lang! Get up! The pirates are coming!!!"
The densely packed boats on the sea were propelled by the waves, and the boats were full of people. As soon as they got close to the shore, they rushed towards the sleeping fishermen.
Remembering that bamboo charcoal can dehumidify and absorb dust, Bai Xin asked Lao Tong to buy some bamboo charcoal and prepare to pile it in the basement.This thing is very expensive, and only wealthy people can afford it. Bai Xin didn't dare to buy more. The secret room was only built for emergencies. Who would like to run down there to stay? If bamboo charcoal is used to store food, then there is no need.
