Traveling through the farmhouse: there is room for the group pet Fubao

Chapter 102 Little girl, tell the truth

"It's just right, let's go have dinner together."

"Old man, we want to turn around again. Food is not easy to buy. Buying thick noodles at a high price, and fine noodles and rice can afford the high price depends on fate."

Gao Banshou sighed, there are [-] people in the village, if they open their mouths to drink porridge, it will cost one half a catty per person a day.They are all big men, half a catty of rice or noodles should be eaten freely, and it will be gone in one meal.

"Don't worry, have a good meal first, my little granddaughter is starving, and she will have the strength to think of a way after eating."

Grandpa is so enlightened!
After persuading Uncle Gao, the group went straight to Jubinlou for food.

In the Jubin building, I ran into Old Uncle Liu and a few other city guards who were also drinking. They greeted each other and exchanged a few words of greeting. Everyone should be able to recognize this familiar face when they meet on the street in a short time.

Chu Tian quietly asked the second elder brother to settle the account of Old Uncle Liu's table in advance with the money, and asked the shopkeeper to refill two jugs of good wine.

Back in the house, Mr. Tang gave a lecture to his subordinates, "Did you see that? Learn from my granddaughter. Forget it. You won't be able to learn my granddaughter's exquisite mind for decades. In the future, If you meet those few when you enter the city, it can be regarded as having a pass."

Gao Banshou has long known the tricks of her little niece, she is not an ordinary person, if she treats you like her child, you will lose.

And Chu Tian introduced this uncle and that uncle one by one during the banquet, so that everyone can have a convenient door to open when they enter the city in the future. Everyone still understands and is grateful for this.

"Let's all discuss the plan for buying food tomorrow."

Elder Tang sat upright at the table, surrounded by his grandchildren, Gao Banshou, Chang Dashan, and his brothers who came out with him, eating candied fruit in a circle.

"Almost all the grain shops are closed, and every family has to knock on the back door and let them in after a good price. Generally, it is twice as expensive as usual. Usually, one tael of silver can buy 150 dou of rice, but now one tael of silver can only be bought for eighty dou. Even so. , there are not many stocks in the shop."

"Yes, Lao Gao is right."

The others also agreed, and the noodles are the same. The price of the thick noodles is now the price of the thin noodles before, and the price of pickles has increased a lot.

"Old Gao, then you plan to knock on such a grain store tomorrow?"

"The only way is to do this first, and collect as much as you have. Anyway, there is land, and you can't pull too many out of the city for a while, and then slowly pull it out."

Well, it is also a way, Mr. Tang nodded.

"I look at dried vegetables, miscellaneous grains, and everything that can be imported if the price is right." Chang Dashan suggested.

Well, that's the reason.Mr. Tang is not short of money, but food.

"Sweet girl, you have a lot of tricks, tell me."

When the grandfather asked, Chu Tian thought for a while, "All kinds of shops in the city are closed and closed, and many people have left. I think those who sell breakfast, bun shops, porridge shops, but anyone who sells food, should be there. If you have grain in stock, why don’t you knock on the doors of those stores, you may get something, and the price may be cheaper than the grain store.”

"Yes! Why didn't we think of that?" Gao Banshou slapped the table excitedly.

"Can your brains compare?" Old Tang glared at Lao Gao angrily, because he wanted to take pictures of the table, but he was snatched first.

"How did you go to the yamen?" Gao Banshou asked, and everyone fell silent.

"Wait, maybe a chance will come in the next moment, right? Xiang Bin, Tian'er?"

"Grandpa, stop being a fortune teller and Qu Cai."

hit you boy!Chu Xiangbin next to Tang Laochao just slapped him, but was cleverly dodged by his second grandson.

"Brother, you go outside to guard the gate and wait for Uncle Wuying."

The house is really big, and you have to go through the corridor and the garden from the gate to the front yard, and you can't hear the knock on the door unless you are guarding the door.Therefore, it is not good to say that the big house has to support idlers, janitors, gardeners, and housekeepers.

After a while, Chu Xiangbin and Wuying walked in while gesticulating with fists and palms, full-fledged big martial idiots confronted little Wu idiots, and they kept their three words in line.

"Uncle Wuying!" Chu Tian was very happy to see one of the three little white mice.

"Miss Chu." Wuying saluted Chu Tian earnestly.

Then, under Chu Xiangbin's introduction, they greeted Elder Tang, Gao Banshou and others one by one.

"Master Tang, I want to have a conversation with Miss Chu and Xiang Bin."

"Okay, then you go to the study."

Elder Tang watched his two grandchildren and Wuying enter the study, meditating silently.

"Grandpa, does he have a problem?"

"Come from the capital, the guard of General Ye's nephew?"

That's right.

"A seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's gate?"

That's right.

"Just as the elders of General Ye's nephew's family are officials up to the prime minister, but his nephew heard that his age is about the same as Xiang Bin, and a guard of a half-old child will send supplies to the general, and a team of people will go out of the city to welcome him?"

"Mr. Tang, why don't you just tell me your doubts?"

Gao Banshou was anxious to hear this.

Tang Laoxin said, if this is the guard of some official, I have no doubts, but he is the guard of a boy of twelve or thirteen years old, so I have more doubts. The treatment of the guards around him is a bit high!
So, what is the identity of the master of Wuying Guard?
The old man didn't dare to ask about his identity, so he kept it to himself.

"Old Tang?" Seeing that Elder Tang was in a daze, Gao Banshou raised his voice again.

"No, I have no doubts."

No, you have, but you can't guess it, but Gao Banshou didn't ask again.

Chang Dashan didn't care much, he only cared about eating and drinking, and the other Tang brothers had to listen to him.

In the study, Wu Ying first asked Xiang Bin how his boxing skills were practiced, and what he didn't understand. He gave pointers on the spot in the study, and took out a roll of paper from his arms after the pointers, so that he could continue to learn slowly.

After taking care of Xiang Bin, when she came to Chu Tian, ​​Wu Ying changed her attitude again. She had an obvious master-student relationship with Xiang Bin, while Chu Tian respected her. That careful respect.

"Miss Chu, I heard that you are looking for me?"

"Um,"

Chu Tian simply told Wuying about the need to settle down.

"When my son left Luozhou City, he explained the arrangement of the housekeeper of the General's Mansion, and this matter has not been done?"

"It's done. Let us farm in Zhuangzi outside the General's Mansion. Although our family is poor, we never thought of being slaves, so we rejected it."

"The old boy can't do anything at all! Don't talk about that, how does Miss Chu want to settle down now? If you need me to help, you can tell me in detail."

"We have a lot of people, and we all came out together. We don't want to be assigned as military households, but we also know that ordinary civilian households are not easy to handle. The field is a problem. We accidentally discovered that Chazhai Mountain, which is three or four hundred miles away, is a The deserted village, we want to settle there, open up wasteland and farm the land ourselves, of course, the land reclaimed will naturally be taxed as normal land.”

The little girl's explanation was a bit vague, and Chazhai Mountain was a bandit's den. She had heard about it when Wu Ying accompanied Xiao Yi to Yuancheng two years ago.

The first-rank guards in the palace are not easy to fool. Combined with everyone I just met in the front hall, the grandfather is a real grandfather, but the group of uncles are not normal at first glance.

"Miss Chu, please tell the truth."
