"Madam has a clear and exquisite heart." Bai Guo praised, and then said: "You can decide whether you want him to follow me. It's just that I'm short of many people here. If there are still people, help me find some."
Nong Chan didn't expect Ging Guo to be so direct, so she asked casually: "How many people are needed?"
"two hundred."
As soon as these words came out, Nong Chan and Qiao Xingchang were both shocked.
This is a big businessman.
Bai Guo frowned at the expressions of the two of them, then relaxed and asked, "How many people can we find?"
Qiao Xingchang said bluntly: "Twenty at most."
Ging Guo nodded, it was better than nothing.
Nong Chan knew a lot, so he asked, "What are your requirements?"
Bai Guo raised his eyebrows slightly, "Many business people are walking outside and cannot return home. This needs to be known."
Nongchan nodded, "This is natural."
Bai Guo thought for a while and then said, "If possible, find more people who have read books and can keep accounts."
It’s better to have capable people around you than not to have them when you need to use them.
Nong Chan nodded, and was about to say that he would help when Bai Guo continued: "Find someone to give you thirty cents as an introduction fee, fifty cents for those who can read and keep accounts, fifty cents for those who are young and strong, if I will add more capable people."
Nong Chan and Qiao Xingchang were stunned at the same time.
They thought that helping to find someone was a condition for receiving food at a high price, but they did not expect that there would be an introduction fee.
When the women heard this, they couldn't help but said anxiously: "What if we introduce someone?"
Bai Guo looked over and shook his head, "No need."
Nong Chan and Qiao Xingchang have some knowledge, so they will naturally pay special attention to how to find the right person.
But what others saw was only the ten cents, and they might not know what kind of person they were looking for.
She can't use the old, weak, sick and disabled here for the time being. It's really troublesome for people to come and have her object.
Qiao Xingchang immediately agreed, "I will definitely find someone!"
The more people he finds, the more money he gets, and the more money he can spend on treating diseases!
"Everyone in my caravan gets five taels of silver per month, eight taels for those who can keep accounts, and extra for those who are capable."
Ging Guo announced the price, which made the eyes of the women surrounding her almost turn red, and they just wished they could buy it themselves.
Bai Guo glanced over and added: "I don't remember men and women."
As soon as these words came out, the women all took a step back.
Some things feel unfair when you know you can't get them, but when you think you can get them, you start to worry about whether they will have a bad impact on you.
Bai Guo didn't pay attention and continued to Qiao Xingchang: "After you find the person, go to Yuntang Inn and report the business name Leping. I will have someone come and settle the money with you, and at the same time move the grain to my warehouse."
Qiao Xingchang immediately nodded in agreement.
Bai Guo felt a little lighter now that he had made arrangements to recruit people.
After all, these foreign businessmen are not as convincing as the words of their own locals.
And the time she saved can be used to continue looking for goods.
Bai Guo left with two secret guards, but did not return to Shanma County. Instead, he asked another secret guard to go back and tell Bie Xia and Yu Die about their progress, and at the same time asked Yu Die to tell the three people she was optimistic about. The warehouse is rented directly.
The secret guard took the order and left on horseback.
Bai Guo took An Luo beside him and rode for more than half a day to Jishan County, which is somewhat bordering Shunshan Village.
Jishan County is close to the mountainous area, and is not as good as Shanma County in terms of planting, not as well educated as Shanma County, and not as prosperous as Shijiu County.
It is a county that depends on the mountains and the mountains.
Because it was a last-minute idea and they were on their way in a hurry, the two of them did not rush to Jishan County when it got dark, but arrived at Yuanshi Town below Jishan County.
Yuanshi Town is just a small town and cannot be compared with the county seat.
It is also for this reason that Gingguo has always liked to wander around the county or the villages and towns around the county, because a county can best reflect certain things, and it is also easiest to find the most popular or best-selling things in this county.
The further away from the county town, the more out of touch with the county town's culture. It is difficult to find out what the county town has the most, and it is difficult to find goods that can be bought and sold in large quantities.
There were only three inns in Yuanshi Town, and An Luo couldn't find a good one even with his extraordinary abilities. Gingo simply gave up comparing and directly chose the one closest to him.
There were few people in the town, and it was even more strange for Bai Guo and the two of them to rush over at night and dress up so eye-catchingly. The store owner did not dare to receive them and carefully asked Bai Guo's identity.
"Don't be nervous, store owner. The little girl is a businessman who came out to look for goods. Today she went to Jishan County on an impromptu trip and forgot to calculate the distance, so she went to Yuanshi Town to rest for the night."
Bai Guo showed off Yi Wanying's business certificate that she carried with her.
The store owner then carefully brought Ging Guo upstairs, opened the doors to two rooms, and heard Ging Guo say: "Can you prepare some food? There is also hot water."
An Luo threw a piece of silver over before the shopkeeper spoke.
The shopkeeper's slightly opened mouth immediately changed his tone, "Of course! You two have a rest for a while, and the food and washing water will be brought to you soon."
Being in a hurry today, Ging Guo felt unusually tired, so he fell asleep after eating and taking a shower.
Under normal circumstances, you will definitely fall asleep after being tired and sleep until dawn.
But Bai Guo had been practicing martial arts with Bai Minghong and others since he was a child, and he opened his eyes again before dawn.
It was still dark outside at this time, and everything was quiet.
It's just that she didn't know when the footsteps started to appear outside. The road next to the inn that Bai Guo originally chose was the closest to her entering the city. It was also the main road in and out of the town.
This also allowed Bai Guo to hear these footsteps clearly.
Some were in pairs of three or three, some were alone, none of them looked like a group, but the footsteps were all messy and heavy.
What made Gingguo suddenly feel strange was the smell of blood.
Strong smell of blood.
Every step that passes by carries the smell of blood!
Gingguo got up, put on his clothes and opened the window. He saw one or two people passing by from time to time, carrying some deer, hare, pheasant and other prey on their shoulders or hiding in their baskets.
Occasionally, Ginkgo can smell one or two medicinal herbs from several passing baskets.
This surprised Ging Guo, but he didn't expect that a small town would show signs of activity so early.
When An Luo knocked on the door, Ging Guo had already packed up. The two had breakfast. When An Luo was about to go to pull the horse, he heard Ging Guo say: "Stay here for one day."
Of course, Anluo wouldn't ask why.
Gingguo walked on the street and discovered that there were many restaurants here, and there must be a lot of fresh prey in the restaurants that can be used for cooking.
As expected, it is a county town that depends on the mountains, even the towns below.
Gingguo inquired about the prices of some medicinal herbs and game animals, and also inquired about the prices of some animal furs.
"We're not going any further. Let's go to the village below."
Since she relies on the mountain to live on, it doesn't matter where she goes under the mountain. Why is she traveling so far away?
Anluo took the order and led the horse over. The two rode to the nearest village.
It is also the village whose name is heard most from hotel owners - Shanquan Village.
Shanquan Village is named after a very wide spring in the mountains. It is also because of this spring that many prey come to drink water, so this village has the most prey.
When Ging Guo took An Luo to Shanquan Village, the smoke just started to rise in the village, and every household made noise after the smoke.
As we entered the village, we could still hear a few rough questions.
It's like asking each other what kind of prey they caught, how much they sold, and where they were sold.
The arrival of Ging Guo and An Luo made the villagers who had breakfast come out with bowls in their hands, looking at them curiously while continuing to eat.
The children of a few years old were holding the bowl in both hands and it was not good to eat, so they looked at the novel curtain hat with their small eyes. After seeing the magic in their hands, the bowl fell to the ground with a 'snap'.
The children and adults in the family reacted at the same time. One ran around as if lifeless, and the other picked up a broom and chased him out, shouting: "Little bastard, I let you run away!"
If he can't catch up, he will shout: "If you run away again, I will break your legs!"
Children are so smart that they disappear after a few runs.
The adult slammed down the broom in his hand and cursed: "Little bastard, let me see if you will come back for lunch!"
Gingguo sat on the horse and felt the different smell of fireworks for the first time.
"Hey, what are you doing?!" The middle-aged man, who had not had time to wash off the blood on his body, arrived at the entrance of the village and looked at the two people with confusion and defensiveness in his eyes.
He's dressed so strangely, he doesn't look like a good person.
Bai Guo didn't know the conclusion the man in front of him had made for him, so he didn't reply immediately. Instead, he first looked at the mountain closest to Shanquan Village.
The mountain is very high. Looking at it at this time, there is an illusion that heaven and earth merge into one, and the mountain is connected.
Half of the sky is filled with the wonders of blue and red rosy clouds.
"We are merchants, and this is our boss." An Luo looked at the man and answered.
"Oh, are you here to collect prey? It's too late. All our prey has been delivered to the town." The man's mother-in-law brought two steamed buns, and the man grabbed them and took a bite, without replying. Home.
"We don't collect prey." Only then did Ging Guo say, "We collect herbs and animal skins."
The sweet and clear sound was so startling that the steamed bun in the man's hand fell to the ground. Even the person holding the bowl while eating was so shocked that he almost dropped the bowl.
"Are you really a woman?! I thought you were a pretty boy dressed a little too girly."
The man was so shocked that he forgot to pick up the buns from the ground.
An Luo peeked at Ging Guo from the corner of his eye, but he couldn't see Ging Guo's expression clearly through the gauze. An Luo didn't know whether he should take action.
"Collect the herbs and furs, why don't I bring some money?" Gingo pulled the reins to stop the horse from moving, and a child ran over and touched it.
Seeing this, other children began to run over and wanted to touch it. The horses snorted in dissatisfaction, scaring the children who came over and fled in all directions, screaming in their mouths.
No one questions Baiguo's words. Those who can afford horses are rich people.
"What's your price?" The man yelled in surprise at first. At this time, he could calmly pick up the buns on the ground and finish them in two mouths.
If you ignore the woman next to him who is tightening her waist.
"It's naturally higher than the ones in town." The villagers gathered in Gingguo said, "The higher the price, the higher the price I will pay."
The woman next to the man muttered dissatisfiedly: "Can you afford the ginseng?"
Anluo showed the money in his pocket with a wink.
Sometimes no matter how many words you say, it won't be as effective as this one action.
Sure enough, everyone was frozen in place again as if their souls were gone.
"I'll take all the medicinal materials." Ging Guo looked at the woman, "The money is just a lot more."
