Chapter 20 Everyone is happy
"It's okay, it's okay. I was excited because I thought about having something delicious to eat tonight."
Ziyu, who was so excited by the low price that she drooled, had the nerve to tell the truth and waved her hand for him to continue.
In the end, the four large barrels and two large baskets of fresh seafood picked up by Shuiwa's family were exchanged for two or three coins.
Ziyu pretended to go back to the mule cart to look for something, but in fact, she found a small scale for silver among the groceries collected in the space.
Hand holding a box of silver beans and holding a small scale in one hand, when he turned around, he found many villagers carrying wooden buckets gathered around Shui Wa to ask questions.
“Don’t make any noise, the young master is here!”
Shui Wa grinned widely and suppressed the voices of the villagers. The whole audience could only hear the sound of breathing, and all stared at the wooden box Zi Yu was holding.
The little guy immediately became energetic when he heard that there was something delicious to eat. He stood up on tiptoes and raised his face to let his unscrupulous brother pinch him.
Nearly fifty households in Shashi Village all received satisfactory silver from Ziyu this time, with the smallest family earning at least two taels of silver.
“Brother, Xiao Luo is hungry!”
"Well, take care, young master, I will definitely handle what you told me." Shui Wa couldn't help but look back, and saw the young master running around with the little milk baby. What's interesting is that his mule was jogging along with him.
When the annual ocean-going merchant ships returned to port, Ziyu stopped trading with Shashi Village, and the changes in Shashi Village also attracted the attention of those monopoly merchants.
Ziyu waved her hands repeatedly and agreed with Shui Wa on the next time she would enter the village.
“Uncle Shui Wa, don’t worry and go back!
The carriage from home will be here soon. My family members are a bit fierce, so don’t scare you. "
Ziyu, who was too late to return to the city in front of the city gate of Shangdu Prefecture, chose a secluded place on the road and disappeared outside with the mule and cart.
Ziyu, who has eaten a lot of top-quality seafood, feels that the taste is simply inferior compared to this pure wild and pollution-free ancient seafood!
Xiao Luo, who is not old but loves delicious food, does not forget to praise while eating.
Nearly 5,000 kilograms of fresh goods of all kinds were received, with a disbursement of 85 taels of silver beans. Nearly 2,000 jins of dry goods were received, with a disbursement of 165 taels of silver beans.
The sea breeze was blowing, and there was no one on the empty beach. A large number of baskets disappeared under the night sky under the hands of people turning around.
“You little charlatan, your favorite is shrimp, don’t overeat!”
Ziyu doesn’t need to worry about the crops in the ground since they are planted. They will naturally thrive in the fertile soil.
There was a lot of collected things piled in the open space outside the village. Shui Wa looked at the darkening sky worriedly and said.
“Hmm, Xiao Luo is waiting for brother.”
“Brother, go change your clothes and I’ll prepare some delicious food for you.” Ziyu jumped off the multifunctional agricultural machine and pinched Xiao Luo’s face.
“Young Master, when will your family come to pick you up? It will be dark soon. I’m afraid it won’t be safe if you’re late.”
“Uncle Shui Wa’s family has two or three dollars!”
…
Every household has undergone new changes. They wear new clothes and can afford a meal of white rice. Those who love their children grit their teeth and send their boys to private schools for two years, and they will have a good future.
Because those things are not worth much money at all in their eyes, and they are all handmade by various companies.
Ziyu came to the city early before dawn the next day and rented a small courtyard to settle down temporarily. She would buy dozens of kilograms of coarse salt from different grocery stores every day, so that she could accumulate a small amount without attracting anyone's attention.
I run to Shashi Village every three days to collect seafood, killed chickens and ducks, and fresh chicken and duck eggs.
He took a look at the extraordinary Ziyu. Although he was young, his calm and self-confident aura was not something ordinary people could have.
Smelling the fresh and sweet taste of the food, the two extremely hungry people each held a blue shrimp and ate happily.
To be honest, he was also very interested in Shuiwa's family's income. Who said he was a poor village chief?
The mule cart, which left a mark on the ground, took the two of them away gradually and disappeared into the night.
Zi Luo, who had been running around for most of the night, curled up in the mule cart and fell into a deep sleep. Zi Yu didn't wake anyone up.
This amount is already the annual income of wealthy families in the village in previous years.
“Everyone lines up and comes one by one, no one is allowed to squeeze in!” Village Chief Ran shouted with a tigerish face.
"Uncle Shui Wa, please come back quickly. Your family should be anxious. I will come back in three days to buy chickens and ducks. I will also accept the seafood."
…
Zi Luo, who woke up at some point, rubbed her eyes and followed the sound to find her. He was walking weakly and looked very pitiful.
When the villagers witnessed Shui Wa wrap up and put the beans worth two or three coins into her arms, they were completely boiling.
One stick of incense, two three-pound steamed garlic blue shrimps, and two plate-sized steamed blue flower crabs were served.
Village Chief Ran couldn't help but feel excited. He had just heard Shui Wa quietly tell him the price.
They were outside Shashi Village, setting up a net to wait for some outsider who didn't understand the rules to break in, but to their surprise, nothing came of it.
“Wow…”
“Then I’ll go back to the village first. If I need help, the fifth house into the village will be my house.”
Both parties were very happy, and the villagers' attitude towards Ziyu was that they wanted to hold it in their hands.
In front of everyone, Ziyu took out a small handful of silver beans from the wooden box and weighed them. The clever Xiao Luo lay on his own wooden box and refused to let anyone touch them.
…
While enriching their own food stocks, the villagers of Shashi Village also made a lot of money.
If you want long-term cooperation, you must not lose the face of Shashi Village.
The grass purchased by the farm at a large price can completely supply the food rations of less than 500 poultry of various types.
…
With time, Shashi Village will become a wealthy village around it, and the children will also be able to read. Thinking about it, Village Chief Ran feels that his life is promising.
With a good start, the rest will be much easier. I have been busy until sunset, and all the fresh and dry goods have been collected.
“Brother, it’s delicious! Xiao Luo loves brother the most!”
There were too many fresh products to be packed into the space. Shrimps, crabs, shellfish and fish were packed in two small ponds. In order to consider the later collection of goods, Ziyu took the time to open two more half-acre ponds.
Shuiwa's family has the highest income in Shashi Village, and together with dry goods, they earn twelve taels of silver.
Ziyu wanted him to leave immediately, but this man was an honest man and was afraid that she would be bullied.
…
I opened two more raw shells to roast and eat, and then I was satisfied with cleaning the battlefield. The remaining shells were collected together. When a certain amount is accumulated, they will be ground into powder to supplement the calcium for the poultry.
And the price is so cheap that it makes people question their life!
Zi Luo, who had a full meal, was having fun playing alone with two prawn claws. Zi Yu had finished finishing everything on the table, but still had some unfinished ideas.
The villagers who got the silver beans were so happy that they generously gave baskets and barrels from each family to Ziyu for loading.
Because Ziyu was at the dock at this time, waiting eagerly with many people, looking at the large ocean-going cargo ship that was about to enter the port from a distance.
In order to make it easier to squeeze in and out of the crowd, Ziyu had to put Xiao Luo in a large barrel-shaped backpack and tie it to her back to prevent her from getting lost.
