Chapter 47 Grocery Store

"What's the name of this young master?" Chen Fan asked with a smile.

"My surname is Chen, and my name is Chen Jian."

Yo, the same last name.Chen Fan called Mr. Chen: "Mr. Chen is well-informed, and I will ask you for advice if I have the opportunity."

"It's easy to talk about it." Chen Jian readily agreed, but it didn't mean "too much" or "dare not".

"Mr. Chen, please tell me, where can I buy forage seeds?"

"There is a Xiaoji grocery store in the east of this street. The owner runs a ranch, so the store sells forage seeds. You don't need to look at other stores, they are all small. Some have only half a storefront, a There is a counter with a row of shelves, selling some commonly used ones, and a shopkeeper sitting there, and those with longer hands can sit on a chair and take all the goods on the shelf." Chen Jian pointed his fingers back and forth, "These two are shops. The biggest one has a variety of varieties. The owner of Liu’s grocery store is a squire, and he has thousands of acres of fertile land. His young master always likes to go out, so there are many novelties in the store.”

Chen Fan sighed: Originally, to open a small supermarket, you also need to have the status of the rich second generation.

Chen Jian smiled and looked at Huai Shan: "The Liu family is also a big family, with a lot of land and a lot of property."

"Mr. Chen has won the prize, the Liu family's land is nothing." Huai Shan said very politely.

"Miss Liu is really humble. The members of the Liu family are envied by everyone in Yuanfeng County. The distribution of so much land cannot be compared with money."

"Mr. Chen is flattering you. The Chen family is a family of officials, but it is not comparable to our family of farmers and merchants." Huai Shan came and went, Chen Fan was secretly speechless.

Is this person in front of you a second-generation or third-generation official?He is about the same age as Xuanfeng. I don't know if he has any official position?
A big family is a big family, even if Liu Huaishan stays in the country for a long time, it's not that information is blocked, the situation of the major forces is still very clear, and they can clearly distinguish between people and faces.She just asked the other party what to call him, alas.

When everyone heard the words "Official House", they all turned their heads towards Chen Jian like a rattle drum. Chen Jian smiled and looked at the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper He, where's your young master?"

Shopkeeper He smiled very sincerely: "Go back to Mr. Chen, my young master said that he is coming today, and he probably will come in a while. Mr. Chen, please sit inside for a while and have a cup of tea."

Chen Jian waved his hand: "No, I'll just walk around. I was passing by just now, and I happened to see this girl's generosity. What's your name?"

"My surname is also Chen." Chen Fan replied.

"Hey, it's my family."

"Don't dare, I'm a commoner girl, how dare I join the family with the young master?" Chen Fan was terrified.She's not pretending, she's really scared, who knows if this official son will smile at the first second, and then tear your skin off with his hind feet?
Chen Jian smiled: "I'll go to Xiaoji to take a look first, and I'll take my leave." After speaking, he turned and left, and the onlookers on the street also dispersed.There were more customers in the store, and some people said there that he had to take a closer look, maybe he could see something he hadn't seen before.

Chen Fan smiled and asked the shopkeeper to pay the bill.

The shopkeeper didn't make a quotation first, but first took the steelyard, paper and pen, weighed everything, recorded everything, and then started quoting the price with Chen Fan.

"Girl, you have also seen that these things still have a lot of weight. I don't want to play tricks on you. This Jibei is very rare, and it is not easy to get these seeds. You will be charged 720 for these two buckets of Jibei." Wen is not expensive either. Seeing that the girl knows the goods, I will charge you [-] Wen for a bosom friend. Watermelon seeds are more than a catty, and I will only charge you [-] Wen. In the future, if there are new products in the shop, if the girl is interested, she will also charge you [-] Wen. You can come and visit often. If the girl trusts me, these things are included, and you will give me the money after wiping off the change."

Chen Fan glanced at Huai Shan, who nodded slightly.Chen Fan took out a consistent amount of money, and the shopkeeper took it.There was a burst of amazement in the store, and it was really rare to buy a few seeds for a whole penny.

There are a lot of things, Huaishan said to find a place to put them first.The shopkeeper moved those bags behind the counter.

Chen Fan continued to look at the shelves over there, and Huai Shan and the others went to the other corner.

The last two rows are placed in some places that seem to never need to be purchased, but may have to be bought one day: ceramic pots, medicine pots, thick porcelain bowls and fine porcelain bowls, small wooden basins... It is quite similar to many modern small supermarkets. like.

There are also hair rope flowers and the like here, the styles are simple and cheap; some small toys; there are seasonings... almost everything that Chen Fan can think of for daily use at home is available in this shop.There are also the Four Treasures of the Study. The brushes look very ordinary, and the paper is a bit rough to the touch. There are also those that are similar to lead drawing paper. Chen Fan was very happy to see them, and quickly took a dozen of them.

And charcoal?Chen Fan rubbed his hands together a few times, and looked at his hands, they were black.She was very happy and took two charcoal pencils.

Zhang Ci and Xiang Jian turned around, looking at what Chen Fan would choose.

Seeing her taking these two items, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up again: "Oh girl, you are really knowledgeable, you are really well-informed."

Rice spike laughed loudly: "The shopkeeper said again, this thing is not a rare item, occasionally someone wants to remember something and don't need to pay too much attention to it, isn't that what they use. Why is it so involved? What about broad knowledge?"

"Hey, it's because you have seen a lot, girl, that you think this is common. Illiterate people can't use it, and scholars despise it, but this paper is very easy to write and draw. You also said yes Occasionally, sometimes this happens less than once in a few years." Chen Fan almost laughed out loud and held back.

The four girls saw that they were almost done, so they carried the bags and walked towards the carriage.The shopkeeper sent a guy to help them carry it.

I didn't feel it when I came, but when I turned around, I realized that I was far away from the carriage. We walked for seven or eight minutes before reaching the carriage.The coachman got out of the carriage early and reached out to take the two bags.

Everyone was about to put their things into the carriage, when a small figure jumped out of nowhere and got into the carriage with a whoosh, which shocked everyone.

Soon there was a burst of yelling, and a group of servants rushed over with sticks, looked around the carriage, and kept shouting: "Where is the person? Where is the brat?"

Huaishan didn't speak, she got into the carriage with a small bag, a clerk put a big cloth bag into the carriage, Huaishan dragged the big cloth bag inside.
