I played as an assistant in ancient times

Chapter 209 Ouch

"Oh! Little girl, don't joke with me." The cloth shop owner obviously didn't believe her. If Shen Xiaoye hadn't already paid, he would have thought she was using this method to get him to sell her at a lower price.

But Shen Xiaoye said: "Just tell me there is such cheap cloth, do you dare?

If you dare, I will send it to you in the summer."

"Hahaha, of course I'd buy it if it's so cheap. I'll buy not only one thousand pieces, but even two thousand pieces." The cloth shop owner thought to himself that if there really was a fool like this coming to his door, he would buy more and send them to Huai'an, Tianning or Yangyuan City.

Shen Xiaoye observed his expression and knew that he still didn't believe it, so he said, "In fact, if you are willing to go to Beijing to get the goods, the price will definitely not be high."

“Wouldn’t it be cheaper if I went to Jiangnan to get it?

But you have to know that it costs a lot to go to my place." The cloth shop owner wanted to follow the traveling merchants to the south, but as a local merchant, he would be cheated if he was not careful.

He said, "To be honest, young lady, we are all poor people living in the border town. We know that the things sent by merchants are expensive, but what can we do if we don't want them?

If I go to Beijing to buy a lot of goods, it is impossible to sell them all quickly, but if I buy too little, I can’t afford the loss.

If you ask the merchants in the city to bring the goods, you have to make a profit. The grain stores are better, people can't live without rice and flour, so they will buy it even if it's expensive.

But do you believe that the cloth in my shop can be sold for a whole year after it is purchased once?"

"Cunning, he said so much but didn't talk about the purchase price." Shen Xiaoye, who was meowing like a little black cat, complained.

She scratched it and said to her boss, “It’s really not easy.

In that case, we have agreed that I will send you blue cloth at three cents a piece this summer."

After saying that, he asked the boss to help him load the cloth into the car and left.

Afterwards, she asked the people who came with her to send the cloth away, and she went shopping in the main shops in the city. The prices of all kinds of goods here were relatively high, except for some furs.

Shen Xiaoye saw someone selling sheepskin at a price that was one-third lower than the purchase price in Linghe County.

Seeing her constantly browsing in the fur store, the little black cat couldn't help but ask her if she wanted to buy anything.

She denied it flatly, and only after the shopkeeper’s impatient look left her, did she say, “I was thinking that in the future I would get thousands of cattle and sheep from the Dada people, and it would not be appropriate to trade them in the border town.

Do most of the military settlements here raise sheep? "

"Tens of thousands? How are you going to get them back? Don't let a bunch of them die halfway." Little Black Cat thought she was a little whimsical.

Shen Xiaoye did not comment, but quickened his pace to go back. Many people in the yard were already packing their luggage.

Several carts were being inspected by Sun Mi and his men, and the scarce salt bags and tea bricks were being put into place.

Taoist Priest Qingxi Hengxi led the disciples of Taixu Temple to urgently prepare medicine in the open back room.

The Wang and Chai families didn't know whether they had to leave immediately, so they sent people to the courtyard to help and inquire about the matter.

Sun Mi, Bian Xian and others naturally would not say where they were going, they only said they were going to Wanquanwei.

So as soon as Shen Xiaoye came back, he was seen by Mr. Wang San. He wanted to talk to Shen Changsui, but the other party was busy and nowhere to be seen.

He patted his nephew's hand and asked him to find Shen Xiaoye who had entered the back room.

Wang Chi had read the letter his uncle wrote to his family. In fact, he was very curious about the Shen family. When he was brought here, he didn't know that there were members of the Shen family here.

But after his uncle's explanation, he learned that Shen Xiaoye was registered under his biological aunt's name.

So as soon as he reached the door, he called out politely, "Cousin Shen, I'm Wang Chi, can I talk to you?"

Taoist Master Hengxi waved at Shen Xiaoye, who was walking around and touching the pills, and said, "Stop it and go do your thing."

Shen Xiaoye had no choice but to "follow the advice" and waved to Wang Chi, who looked a bit like her aunt, and said, "Hello."

This greeting immediately stunned Wang Chi.

"Meow meow." The little black cat laughed secretly. The people of the Great Zhou did not greet each other like this when they met.

Its voice instantly brought Shen Xiaoye back to her senses. She coughed lightly and said, "Young Master Wang, you are too polite. Please."

Wang Chi followed her out, "Cousin Shen, please walk slower. Uncle San is sitting in the corridor over there. I don't want him to hear."

"Young Master Wang, the identity of my aunt has not been completely confirmed." In fact, when Shen Xiaoye first met Wang Chi, he already understood why the third young master Wang kept appearing after seeing his aunt from afar.

She believed that if it was Wang Chi who appeared near her home at that time, her aunt would have directly recognized him as a relative.

"Uncle San will not make a mistake." Wang Chi was so confident in his family that he said, "The name is not important. I want to ask, are you not going to the Khan's Court and are you going back to Beijing?"

"Why do you ask?" Of course Shen Xiaoye couldn't tell the truth.

Wang Chi pointed at the busy people in the courtyard, motioned her to go further away and said, "But I think you still have to go to the Northern Tartar Khan Court. I want to join, but my third uncle disagrees.

He will definitely talk to you about this later and remind you to leave and check carefully to make sure I don't hide in the car."

Shen Xiaoye thought that since they all lived in the same house, the other families would probably be able to see that they were just shopping and didn't look like they were going back to Beijing.

Well, was it too careless that it was leaked before we even set off?

Of course, she didn't know that she was overthinking it, because Guard Xia had already told his men how to respond.

As for whether others believe it or not, it’s up to them. Because after they leave, the people living in this house will be taken over by the garrison and will not be allowed to go out easily.

Shen Xiaoye looked at Wang Chi carefully, and after a while he said, "We need to go to other guards. The Northern Barbarian Khan's Court is not a place we can go to."

The child looked very serious, and it seemed that he really intended to be the sharp knife that sneaked into the enemy camp, but he was too young.

She does not think that one should not be ambitious at a young age, especially for the children of military commanders who grew up in border areas. They have been influenced by their surroundings and have a stronger desire to be heroes.

"That's not what Brother Lu said." Wang Chi didn't believe it. His frowned eyebrows reminded Shen Xiaoye of his frowning aunt.

Aunt Huang also frowned and stared at her son and asked, "You seem a little guilty when you came back this time. Did you do something wrong?"

"No." Shen Cungeng shook his head quickly.

Huang didn't believe it, "Your father and grandparents are busy in the East Courtyard right now. You can rest assured to tell mother when they are not here.

Even if you make a mistake, I will help you correct it."

"Mom, I'm really fine. I was mainly busy at home and wanted to ask Mr. Pan for leave, but it was rejected." Shen Cungeng said, "Xiao Ye said that it would be best to bring back the cloth from Beiqi Village as soon as possible.

I was worried that Dad couldn't handle it all by himself, so I wanted to help him."

“Go to school peacefully without your help. Now you have the opportunity to concentrate on your studies. I don’t know how many times better you are than your fourth uncle.

He is in the camp now and has no time to study. He doesn't know if he can come back in time to take the exam this year. "After taking the exam, he doesn't know if he can pass it, Huang said, frowning even more.

"That's not right, Xiaoye shouldn't have stayed in the capital after he left.

Geng Ge'er, go call your father over and discuss bringing Xiao Ye back."
