Chapter 55 Small Shrimp Rice

"Boss Qiao, have the secret bamboo shoots and Jerusalem artichokes arrived?

What is my boss waiting for? "

A middle-aged man in a bamboo green gown rushed in in twos and twos, without seeing Boss Qiao's sudden change of expression and his eyes giving him a signal.

Now, there is still something Tian Mi can't understand.

Presumably, Boss Qiao bought her bamboo shoots and Jerusalem artichokes, and then resold them at a high price.

Coincidentally, today she bumped into her personally.

Boss Qiao's gaffe was only a blink of an eye, and he quickly returned to his smiling face.

He happily invited the man into the inner room, turned around and came out, as if nothing happened, he should weigh the scale and pay the silver.

"Sliced ​​bamboo shoots cost [-] jin a catty, Jerusalem artichoke [-] jin a catty, dried bamboo shoots [-] jin, and Jerusalem artichoke [-] jin.

A total of 36 taels. "

The waiter shouted the number.

Boss Qiao returned to the counter with a smile, took out the key from his sleeve, and opened the drawer.

Take out 40 taels of broken silver from it.

Going straight to Tian Mi, she has a Chinese character face with a short beard and smiles like the God of Wealth in a New Year picture.

"Miss Tian, ​​this is 40 taels, and if you have any goods in the future, please send them to me."

The meaning contained in his words is self-evident.

Tian Mi took it calmly, took out four taels from it, and put it back into Boss Qiao's hands.

She looked at the smiling Boss Joe, and said seriously:

"You don't get paid for nothing. Return the four taels to Boss Qiao."

There is always an explanation for collecting things.

If you don't say it clearly, you may cause something bad in the future.

Tian Mi likes money that comes from a clear source.

"This……"

Boss Qiao was a little surprised to see that Tian Mi didn't follow him.

Soon, he laughed it off, took back the money, and sent Tian Mi and the three of them away, before turning back to the house.

Here, Tian Mi took the two brothers Wu Xiaoyu and Wu Xiaogang to a place selling pickled vegetable jars in an ox cart.

After parking the ox cart, Tian Mi jumped off first.

The two brothers followed.

Tian Mi picked out a total of five vegetable jars, paid the silver, and loaded them into the ox cart, the three of them headed back to Wujia Village.

The ox cart was driving slowly on the road, Tian Mi sat in front, her legs were hanging down, and her feet were dangling happily in the air.

"Sister-in-law, why do we have to wait outside the shop when we are at Boss Qiao's house?"

Wu Xiaogang held back the doubts in his heart all the way, and only then did he have the opportunity to ask.

Tian Mi bent her lips and smiled, the brat is smart to hold back until now.

Without looking back, she asked:
"Xiaoyu, tell me why?"

Wu Xiaoyu's eyes fell on the vegetable jar in front of him, he thought for a while, and then suddenly realized:
"I remember that Boss Joe was busy counting the income at noon, so we don't want to disturb you."

"That's right, we should avoid suspicion about these things."

Tian Mi looked back at the two brothers approvingly, and asked again:

"Do you know why I returned four taels of silver to Boss Joe?"

The two brothers shook their heads in doubt.

"Think about it first?"

Tian Mi doesn't want to do everything by herself.

Learning to think independently will also help them in the future.

"Sister-in-law is afraid that Boss Qiao won't accept our bamboo shoots in the future?"

After thinking about it, Wu Xiaogang couldn't think of any other reason.

The only thing I can think about is this.

Tian Mi understands his thoughts.

To paraphrase the current saying, big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat dried shrimps.

And they happen to be little shrimps.

Tian Mi raised her eyes and looked to the side, Wu Xiaoyu who was frowning in thought.

Waiting for him for a while, seeing that he was still thinking hard, he turned around and sat down, pulled the ox rope, and swayed forward.

The bullock cart drove through the road for a while, turned and headed towards Wujia Village.

On the way, Tian Mi couldn't help looking at the mysterious mountain towering into the sky.
