Portable Space: Small Peasant Girls Farm to Get Rich
Chapter 339: One step at a time
Chapter 339 Step by step
The next day, Liu Xiao opened his eyes from the bed, and the white curtain came into his eyes, and he sat up abruptly.
Why did he fall asleep last night?
Not good, girl! ! !
Liu Xiao hurriedly took the clothes to cover himself, opened the door and rushed out, but suddenly stopped on the corridor without moving.
"Brother, hurry downstairs and have breakfast. The girl will go out on the street soon." Liu Wu winked mischievously at Liu Xiao upstairs, and his tone seemed a little anxious.
Liu Xiao's eyes panicked and his expression returned to normal. He simply arranged his clothes and walked downstairs. Liu Qingcao only glanced at the two of them, raised his eyebrows, and continued to swing his chopsticks to eat.
"Girl, make atonement." Liu Xiao lowered his head and spoke in a serious tone.
Liu Qingcao waved her hand and motioned for him to sit down and have breakfast.
Liu Wu stole a glance at Liu Qingcao's face and quietly tugged at the corner of Liu Xiao's clothes.
Liu Xiao said nothing, sat calmly on the stool, and started eating breakfast as if nothing happened.
Breakfast was simple rice porridge with pickles. Liu Qingcao and the others ate very quickly, and within a quarter of an hour, everything on the table was cleared.
"..."
The martial arts stomach is indeed different from ordinary people!
"Let's go to Fucheng for a walk." Liu Qingcao paid for the meal and took Liu Wu and Liu Liu to the street, while Liu Xiao and the other two were arranged to stay behind and guard.
The streets of Kailing Fucheng are the same as those of Qingzhou Fucheng. There are not many people walking on the street. Most of the shop doors are closed tightly. Only a few shops have a foot of crack in the snow.
Liu Qingcao looked up, snowflakes flying on his eyelids, blurring his vision.
"Let's go take a look first." Liu Qingcao was used to the inconvenience caused by the flying snow, so she simply came closer.
The three of them sat on the sled, and the strong wind pulled them towards the shop.
This is a cloth shop, and there are still a lot of cloth and cotton in it. After asking the shopkeeper, I found out that the price of cloth and cotton is not low now. Landlords and gentry do not need to buy it, but poor people cannot afford it.
It's no wonder that the shopkeeper is still open for business in this freezing and snowy environment.
"Shopkeeper, are the grain shops on the street still open?"
These shopkeepers knew all the news on the street, so she didn't plan to look for it slowly.
The shopkeeper of Buzhuang shook his head, "Little girl, the food in the grain store has been sold out a long time ago. If you want to buy it, you can only go to the government office to find Mr. Xu. I heard that Mr. Xu arranged for someone to go to other places to buy it yesterday. Less food.”
The shopkeeper of Buzhuang looked Liu Qingcao and the others up and down, and when he saw that they were wearing ordinary clothes, he kindly reminded them.
"Girl, the price of rice is not cheap in the snow. Don't buy too much."
Liu Qingcao heard something in the shopkeeper's words, smiled gratefully, and asked Liu Wu and Liu Liu to choose more pieces of cotton.
"Shopkeeper, do you know how much silver a kilogram of rice costs now?"
The shopkeeper of the cloth shop saw that the two girls had already picked up the cloth and narrowed his eyes with a smile. He was afraid that Liu Qingcao would not get a satisfactory answer and the cloth would have to stay in the shop.
"The price of this rice is one per day, and it costs a few cents more every day. The price today is about nine hundred cents. If you want to buy it, little girl, you should be careful."
Oh?
Look carefully?
"I have taken the shopkeeper's words to heart. Thank you so much, shopkeeper." Liu Qingcao saw Liu Wu and Liuliu winking at her, smiled and thanked the shopkeeper of Buzhuang, and was about to pay and leave.
"Little girl, don't worry." When the shopkeeper of Buzhuang saw that Liu Qingcao was indeed a food buyer, he approached Liu Qingcao mysteriously, his eyes turning quickly, "Girl, if you want to buy rice and food, you might as well buy it from me. The price is definitely better. Those who come out of the government office are worth ten cents."
Liu Qingcao looked down at his stretched out fingers and raised his eyebrows.
Has she encountered a cliche in her relationship?
If you are so kind, you have to slaughter the sheep that come to your door.
"Shopkeeper, to tell you the truth, I have a little bit of food in my hands recently, and I thought the price would be quite high, so I came out to inquire about it."
Liu Qingcao watched the shopkeeper of Buzhuang's face turn red. She laughed secretly in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She showed her white teeth, smiled happily and leaned over to discuss in a low voice.
"Shopkeeper, I'm afraid you don't have much food here. How about I sell the food in my hand to you at a low price?"
"This, this" the shopkeeper looked at Liu Qingcao's inexperienced little face, with mixed feelings in his heart.
He is digging a hole to bury himself!
This little girl looks young, why is she so cunning?
Liu Qingcao saw that he was still hesitant and refused to agree, so he continued to seduce, "I will never let you suffer."
After saying that, he took out a cloth bag from his sleeve and stuffed it into the hand of the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper squeezed the bag and rolled it between his fingers. Based on the touch, he could guess what was in the bag.
"The shopkeeper doesn't want to open it and take a look?" Liu Qingcao asked aloud when he saw that he had no intention of opening it and just rubbed it through the bag.
The shopkeeper of Buzhuang deliberately glanced at Liu Qingcao indifferently and retorted unconvinced, "What's so good about this? Isn't that what happens to rice?"
Liu Qingcao couldn't help but grit her teeth in her heart, she was familiar with the behavior of this profiteer.
"Is it all the same thing?" Liu Qingcao asked with a smile. Before the shopkeeper of Cloth Shop could explain, she had already withdrawn the cloth bag from his hand.
"Then please ask the shopkeeper to settle the bill." Liu Qingcao raised her lips slightly and pointed at the cloth in Liu Wu Liu Liu's arms and said crisply.
The shopkeeper of Buzhuang didn't expect Liu Qingcao to be so troublesome, and he felt anxious and angry.
He had been dealing with rice grains every day in the past few years, so he didn't know that the stuff in this cloth bag was good.
He just wanted to lower the price, but it turned out that the girl in front of him was fine. After taking the things back, he had to pay and leave.
This is a good thing, how could he let it go!
"Girl, don't worry, what I said is right, these good rice are indeed the same thing." The shopkeeper of Buzhuang took a step forward and stopped Liu Qingcao sideways.
"Girl, if your rice is so good, then I will charge you all the nine hundred cents per pound." The shopkeeper of Buzhuang did not dare to play tricks anymore, and his tone of voice was not small.
Liu Qingcao nodded with satisfaction. Nine hundred coins per pound was not cheap, but the rice she took out was not ordinary rice.
"I have a big car. Can the shopkeeper really buy it all?" Liu Qingcao asked uncertainly.
The shopkeeper of Buzhuang was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, obviously not taking Liu Qingcao's words seriously.
"Could this girl be laughing at me? It's just a cart of food, but it's not like I can't handle it."
Liu Wu and Liu Liu looked at each other with a forbearing smile in their eyes.
"Okay." Liu Qingcao didn't persuade her much. She didn't just want money anyway.
"Liu Wu, go to the inn and bring a cart of food over."
"Yes, girl." Liu Wu got the job and rushed out of the door excitedly. The shopkeeper of Buzhuang's eyes widened in shock.
Liu Qingcao smiled, passed by the shopkeeper, and went directly to the cloth in the shop. She had been in for a while, but she hadn't taken a closer look at the color of the cloth.
This cloth shop is not small, and the colors and types of cloths inside are very complicated. The cloud brocade is of little use to her, so her eyes mostly stay on the cotton cloth.
"Liu Liu, put these six bundles of cloth on the table and we will pay the bill later." Liu Qingcao picked out some moderate colors and asked Liu Liu to move them together.
Liu Liu came upon hearing the sound and put all the cloths Liu Qingcao said in one place.
As soon as Liu Liu put down the cloth, Liu Wu drove his horse to the gate of Cloth Village.
"Let's go, the shopkeeper will take a look at the quantity first and see if he's satisfied with it." Liu Qingcao walked in front with a smile, not afraid that the shopkeeper of Buzhuang would slap her on the back of the head.
When the shopkeeper of Buzhuang walked out and saw the sleigh board Liu Wu was sitting on, he was stunned.
"Why are there so many?" The shopkeeper of Buzhuang raised his hand and rubbed his eyes as if he didn't believe it.
"Does the shopkeeper have enough money?" Liu Qingcao said with a smile.
The shopkeeper of Buzhuang was embarrassed and bitter, and sighed secretly in his heart.
This is too much. He really doesn’t have that much cash now...
If he really bought such a large cart of rice, he might not be able to save his cloth village tomorrow morning.
"Does the shopkeeper want to regret it?" Liu Qingcao suppressed his smile and stared at the shopkeeper of Buzhuang from the corners of his eyes.
The shopkeeper was pacing because of the rare occasion.
He knew very well that the rice grain entering the city would be secretly intercepted by the officials, and there would be no fish that could slip through the net.
But this car in front of me...
The shopkeeper of Buzhuang gritted his teeth, suddenly thought of something, and said firmly, "Girl, I really didn't expect you to have so much rice.
Now I have six hundred taels here, and I am willing to trade the remaining money with the cloth from the cloth shop. The girl can choose the cloth in the shop, and the price is five cents cheaper per piece. What does the girl think? "
how is it?
Of course it couldn’t be better!
"Then just do as the shopkeeper says."
Liu Qingcao agreed without any hesitation.
These days, it's not easy to meet a businessman you like.
After the money was settled, Liu Qingcao sat on the carriage and said goodbye to the shopkeeper of Buzhuang with a smile.
This trip was not a loss. Although the price of the cloth was a little high, at least I could buy it.
Their group brought nearly forty carts of grain and clothing, totaling only thirty thousand kilograms of grain.
Thirty thousand kilograms of grain are simply a drop in the bucket for the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the North.
But for Liu Qingcao, the role of these 30,000 kilograms of grain is not just that great.
In the inn, Liu Qingcao called Liu Xiao and others into the room, told them about the situation outside, and finally decided to leave Kailingfu City immediately. Liu Xiao and the others were very fast, and after a quarter of an hour, Liu Qingcao led the six of them out of the inn.
When leaving, Liu Qingcao saw the inn waiter standing outside the door with red eyes, watching them leave.
……
It was dark, and the men and horses were trapped.
Liu Qingcao yawned and got off the carriage. The carriage was surrounded by racks of sleds, and Liu Xiao and the six of them took turns guarding the side.
Standing vigil on a snowy night, relying solely on cotton-padded clothes to keep out the cold, was very tiring. Liu Qingcao was in space when she had nothing to do, and rarely spent time in the carriage.
The six Liu Xiao people relied on their internal energy to store warmth, and their hands and feet became cold due to the cold for a long time. They never told Liu Qingcao, and Liu Qingcao was not blind, so he pretended not to see what he saw.
"Liu Xiao, take it." Liu Qingcao threw a shovel over, and Liu Xiao caught it with a puzzled look on his face.
"Girl, what are you doing?"
"Build a few snow houses to avoid the cold." After Liu Qingcao finished speaking, he picked up the shovel and started digging.
When Liu Xiao saw this, he stopped asking and started digging like Liu Qingcao.
Liu Wu was awakened by the sound of shoveling snow. He rubbed his eyes and drowsily got out of the quilt and got off the sled.
"Girl, what are you doing digging in the snow? Let me do it." Liu Wu rubbed his hands and walked through the snow to catch the shovel in Liu Qingcao's hand.
Liu Qingcao was so happy that she lit a fire aside to cook supper.
Every night during the snowy night, Liu Qingcao would get up and cook a pot of hot supper to replenish the energy of several people.
After the supper was ready, Liu Xiao and Liu Wu finished their work.
"Liu Xiao, put your things down and go get them all up to eat something." Liu Qingcao greeted.
Liu Xiao hummed and went to call the other people, while Liu Wu came to the pot and played with the dishes.
"Girl, is this lamb stewed with radish?" Liu Wu stared at the steaming iron pot with her sparkling eyes. Her mouth was wide open and her crystal saliva seemed unable to resist the temptation and was about to slip out of her mouth.
Liu Qingcao looked at her foodie look and couldn't help laughing.
"Quickly stop your saliva, it will fall into the bowl soon."
Liu Wu knew that Liu Qingcao was teasing her and didn't care at all.
"Girl, let me do it." Liu Wu took the spoon with a smile and filled the bowl with mutton and radish soup.
Although following the girl these days was tiring, it gave her hope.
They finally came back alive. This opportunity was given to them by the girl. They always knew it.
"Drink more. Mutton soup is good to keep out the cold. It's very cold on this winter snowy night, so drink more to keep away the cold."
Liu Qingcao smiled and poured another spoonful into Liu Wu's bowl. The mutton and radish were both fresh from the space. The soup was delicious and milky white. After drinking a bowl, he felt comfortable all over.
"Girl, you eat too, don't worry about her." Liu Xiao looked at Liu Wu smiling so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, and gave him a serious look.
Liu Qingcao pretended not to notice the quarrel between the two of them, picked up the bowl and drank the soup.
This sheep has been in space for some time, but I never found a chance to take it out. Today, I was walking around Kailingfu City and happened to meet an old man selling sheep.
If it hadn't been like this, this sheep would still be jumping around in space.
After eating supper, Liu Qingcao asked Liu Xiao and Liu Wu to sleep in the snow house they had built, and the two of them went inside with the quilts in doubt.
After a while, Liu Wu poked his head out from inside and said with a look of disbelief, "Girl, it's really not that cold inside."
Liu Qingcao walked over and patted the snowflakes on her head, and urged, "Go in and rest quickly. We have to hurry up at dawn."
"Yes, girl." Liu Wu smiled like the warm spring sun, his beautiful round eyes curved into a crescent shape, and his voice was cheerful and powerful.
When Liu Er and others saw this, they all silently hugged their quilts and fell asleep in the snow house.
After a good night's sleep, the sky was faintly visible, snowflakes were flying and falling in the sky, and the surroundings were white.
In the space, Liu Qingcao woke up from bed. After washing quickly, she pulled out a handful of chopped green onions from the soil, peeled them and washed them.
Today, she plans to make a pot of scallion pancakes for breakfast.
It looked like it was still early, so Liu Qingcao was not in a hurry. She prepared breakfast for Qin Xin and Twenty-One, and then came out with a basin of ready noodles.
Outside the carriage, Liu and Xiao were already checking the conditions of the sleigh board and the cargo on it.
When Liu Wu saw Liu Qingcao coming out, he stepped forward with a smile.
"Girl, I slept so well last night. I thought I would be woken up by the cold in the middle of the night, but I didn't expect that staying inside would be much more comfortable than outside." Liu Wu looked at Liu Qingcao with admiration, and couldn't get enough of it.
Liu Qingcao felt a little uncomfortable under Liu Wu's scorching gaze, and coughed slightly, "As long as it's useful to you, Liu Wu, turn up the fire. I'll make some pancakes later."
"I'll go right away." Liu Wu nodded as if he was pounding garlic, and quickly flashed to the stove.
Liu Qingcao's eyelids twitched and she didn't dare to look any further. She walked to the table with the basin and started kneading the dough.
A large basin of noodles makes two meals, which saves a lot of time during lunch.
The soldiers in the North are still waiting for their food. The longer the delay, the more likely it is that problems will arise. They cannot spend too much time on the road.
As the saying goes, changes will happen if things are delayed, and it is not advisable to delay things.
On this trip, she and Liu Xiao and the others suffered a lot. Whether it was because the space needed this rescue, or to save herself or the people of the Yu Dynasty from the suffering of the war, she had to go through this journey.
After breakfast, Liu Xiao packed up his things and headed towards Changxin Fucheng.
Entering the border of Changxin Fucheng, Liu Qingcao obviously found that the journey was much easier. Perhaps the terrain of Changxin Fucheng was relatively flat and the horses had no shortage of food, so the journey was more than one day faster than usual.
"Girl, the snow here seems to be a little light." Liu Liu's cold eyes looked at the snowflakes in the sky, and a clear voice sounded beside him.
Liu Qingcao raised his head and stared at the swirling snow, the corners of his lips curved.
The snow seems to be a little light.
But he didn't see any intention of stopping. Along the way, he met many human-shaped popsicles and rarely saw any living people walking outside.
It was freezing cold, and the government officials had no intention of cleaning up the dead bodies. Some of these people who died of cold and starvation were buried deep in the snow, and some had already been excreted from the body.
"We can't just keep playing." Liu Qingcao withdrew his gaze and lowered his eyes sadly.
Liu Liu raised his eyes, only to see Liu Qingcao's turned back.
Seven people entered Changxinfu City with a long string of sleds. This spectacular sight attracted the attention of the people begging for food.
If it weren't for the dark red blood stains on the sled that were particularly eye-catching, they would have been unable to resist and rushed to snatch it for their own use.
Liu Xiao looked at the greedy people on the side with indifference, and the hilt of the sword in his hand was almost unsheathed.
"Liu Xiao, don't cause trouble if you have nothing to do."
Liu Qingcao lifted the curtain to remind him.
Liu Xiao nodded and agreed.
It took almost half an hour from entering the city to leaving the city, and no one broke the sled board, but in the end no one dared to step forward and snatch the goods on the board.
Liu Wu frowned and looked at the group of people, then pointed at the group of people wandering around with wide eyes, "Girl, these people, they"
"Liu Wu." Liu Qingcao interrupted Liu Wu with a soft call.
Liu Wu stopped what he was about to say in time, and his little face wrinkled together, as if he had tasted the sour, spicy, and bitter taste.
"Let's go, don't worry about it." I can't care about it either.
Liu Qingcao closed her eyes, lowered the curtain, and sat quietly in the carriage alone, her eyes slightly stunned.
A lot of rice had already been taken out along the way. If it was taken out again, it would arouse the suspicion of Liu Xiao and others, and she could not take the risk.
She has medical skills and can use her deceased parents and her talent and intelligence to explain away the problem, but she has no reason and can't find any reason to increase food out of thin air.
There is no free person in the world, but there is no free person in the world.
"Let's take it step by step. There is always a certain degree of priority." Liu Qingcao spat out a sentence and then disappeared into the carriage.
In the space, Liu Qingcao stood in the field and tried to control the harvest with her mind, but obviously failed.
Starting from the village to Changxin Fucheng, many people were rescued along the way, but the space did not go any further.
"not enough?"
The secret road in Kailingfu City has been left, so let’s put it aside in Changxinfu City for now.
Liu Qingcao sighed, gritted his teeth and rolled his eyes, then bent down and started harvesting resignedly.
Qin Xin and Twenty-One both slightly curved their lips when they heard the rustling sound coming from the ground.
During this time, they could hear this sound most of the time, which also meant that the girl was with them most of the time.
Liu Qingcao didn't know what the two of them were thinking, and wouldn't explain it if she knew it. Could she say that she just knew that they didn't understand farming, so she was always tending to the crops?
