Chapter 103 [Make-up investigation] (seeking the first order)
"Haha, it's a pleasure to meet you, and you're back from Long'an Mansion?"
Fang Chang was eating noodles, when he saw Xie Guangan, who was busy in the world, come up to say hello, he said with a smile.
"Yeah, it takes decades for such a thing as a delivery, one day, two days to go, so as not to miss the client's business, so as to maintain a living and provide food for the whole family. .When there are no holidays, you can only rest for a day if there is an extra odd number day in the month of the previous day."
"Good job."
"Thank you, thank you, eat noodles, eat noodles."
The two exchanged a few words, and buried themselves in eating the mutton noodles as thin as cicada's wings with chopped green onion and sesame oil.
In fact, it can be seen that Xie Guangan's income is much better than that of ordinary farmers. After all, the mutton noodles are a few cents more expensive than tofu noodles and sesame sauce noodles. Being able to eat them often shows that his family is well off.
Pouring the last few drops of soup in the bowl into his mouth, Fang Chang quietly used the descaling technique on his mouth, and then asked the side: "Old Xie, I haven't gone out for more than half a year. Is there any big news in the world recently?"
Seeing Fang Chang asking this question, Huaifeng Lao Xie became interested, he swallowed the face in his mouth, and said happily:
"There were troubles in several states in the west. The chief officials accused each other of rebellion, and the troops were attacking each other, but the court didn't care about it." Speaking of this, Xie Guang'an's eyebrows and eyes had a trace of worry.
Fang Chang didn't change his face, just wrote it down secretly, and then he asked: "Is there anything else?"
"There are several prefectures in the far north. There were floods and droughts, and the harvest was lost. Fortunately, there is no shortage of food in the Changping warehouse. In recent years, the management has been strict, and the deficit is very small, so there will be no famine. Then there is the southeast. , there was a typhoon, and the production was reduced a lot, but we can still survive."
"In comparison, our prefectures in Jingzhou and Yangzhou in the east have been considered to have good weather and good weather in recent years, with good harvests year after year, thanks to God's reward for food..." During the words, Xie Guangan did not delay eating, and put the noodles in the rice bowl. Everything was eaten, not even a chopped green onion was left.
As a porter, Lao Xie is well-informed. From him, Fang Chang learned about the situation far and near, and then said goodbye:
"Thank you for letting me know. I am planning to go to Huaifeng Mansion, so I will leave."
Xie Guang'an was surprised: "Oh? Mister is going to Huaifeng mansion too? It's getting late, why don't you rest in the town for a night and walk together tomorrow morning."
"Thank you, but there's no need." Fang Chang said with a smile, he was not afraid of walking at night, and he didn't need to rest.
After meeting with the stall owner, I said goodbye to Lao Xie, and went to a nearby stall to buy a few tiger pancakes, wrapped them in straw paper provided, and stuffed them into my back bag.
Then, he walked to the tavern at the head of the town.
"The shopkeeper, fill it up."
Fang Chang untied the new gourd from his waist and placed it on the counter.
"Okay, what kind of wine do you want, sir?"
"The kind that is mentioned in ten cents—if there is no price increase here."
"Guest officer, don't worry, it hasn't gone up, it hasn't gone up. This year's grain price is quite stable, and the top-notch wine is still ten cents a mention." The tavern manager said, then opened the lid of the waist-high wine jar, inserted a funnel into the gourd, and counted According to the quantity, fill up the gourd with one drink and one drink.
"Six mentions are more, guest officer, you can give sixty Wen."
Fang Chang nodded, took the gourd, put a handful of copper coins on the counter, then tied the wine gourd around his waist again, and walked out of the shop.
After the harvest, there are more people inside and outside the tavern than before.
There were even a few stout peasants standing outside the tavern with bowls in their hands, chatting relaxedly in the afterglow of the setting sun. Their necks were dark red after sun exposure, and their hands had thick calluses, obviously from years of hard work.
It can be seen that at least for here, this year is another good year.
Fang Chang left here from the south of Huqiao Town, followed the official road all the way to the west, and walked through the wilderness. Anyway, Fucheng didn't open the door at night, so he simply slowed down and arrived at Huaifengfufucheng at dawn.
Fang Chang paid a copper, and entered the city of Huaifeng Prefecture together with the farmers who entered the city in the morning to sell vegetables and fruits.
There are row upon row of buildings on both sides, which is no different from the last time I came. Compared with ordinary small towns, the speed of building changes in Gein is much slower.
He walked slowly on the street. As a practitioner, Fang Chang has no worries about survival. He doesn't have to be as busy as those people asking for a living next to him, and he doesn't have to be like those passing by. The townspeople generally have fresh vegetables in a hurry.
"Eh?"
There is a new courtyard beside the main road, and the plaque on it is "Liu's Mansion".
Although the gate and the courtyard wall are very new, obviously recently built, and the specifications are not low, and the courtyard is prosperous, but in the eyes of Fang Chang, there is a sense of familiarity for no reason.
Recalling the last experience in Huaifeng Mansion, Fang Chang smiled.
It seems that this is the new home of the scholar Liu Xiuwen and the white fox demon Hu Xueqiu.
I hope he will be a good official, someone useful to this world...
He kept walking, passing by the Liu Mansion and moving forward.
While walking, Fang Chang suddenly felt something. Looking back, two tall horses, pulling a richly decorated carriage, was parked at the gate of the Liu Mansion in the distance. With support, he is in good shape.
Fang Chang had good eyesight, and could tell that this was the Liu family's wife, Hu Xueqiu. He smiled, turned his head and continued to look for the shop.
Everyone has their own karma, it seems that this white fox demon is doing well.
later.
The lady of the Liu family was about to enter the gate, when she suddenly felt something, she turned her head and took a deep look at the street on the left.
The little girl next to her noticed it and asked, "Ma'am, what are you looking at?"
"nothing."
Hu Xueqiu, already known as Mrs. Liu, smiled slightly, turned her head and entered the gate.
After Liu Xiuwen was a Jinshi in high school, he had already entered the Hanlin Academy to study general affairs, and lived separately from her. This new house was very deserted.
Hu Xueqiu is planning. After the family affairs are settled, he will raise funds and go to Beijing to find a husband.
...
Aeon's company is not very large in scale, but it has a very long history.
For many people, the old people they can meet have seen this firm when they were young. From this point of view, AEON can be called a "time-honored brand".
Seeing the door plaque of this business not far ahead, Fang Chang stopped lightly. This time there were people inside, and the door was not closed like last time.
After thinking for a while, he used a little blindfold.
If there are ordinary people nearby paying attention, you can see that this white-clothed man suddenly changed into a businessman's attire, with a shrewd face, and the package behind him also looks huge, and I don't know what goods are in it.
Stepping into the door, Fang Chang grabbed a guy at random and asked:
"Brother, where is your shopkeeper?"
There may be another update tonight.
Thank you book friends 20190404211311217, Qi Ji, Arbitrary Qian, Mathematics Ang, who preempted my name, waved his, and Jianhengyanzhu rewarded.
