After finally packing up the mushrooms, Zheng Ruqian picked up the package and left.
Jiang Sheng grabbed the corner of his clothes.
Zheng Ruqian turned around and said, "You are a girl, I cannot let you resist."
Jiang Sheng chuckled, "Second brother, I won't resist anyone."
"How can I be sent to the county if I don't resist?" Zheng Ruqian wondered, "Are you dragging me on the ground?"
Jiang Sheng really wanted to kowtow to her brother's imagination. She waved her hand and pointed at the gradually clear figure at the entrance of the village.
Shilip Town is poor, and even Shilipu Village is not rich.
People in the village mostly use their legs to travel. If they want to transport something, they use a flatbed cart. Ten kilometers consumes a strong man's labor.
But there are actually other means of transportation in the town, such as donkey carts.
A donkey pulls the flat cart at the front, and the driver can direct the old donkey to move forward at a constant speed by shaking his whip.
The flat car can carry seven or eight people in the back, not counting cargo.
Last time to change the dressing for Xu Mo's broken leg, Fang Heng suggested going to the county, but for the five of them, based on the two cents per head, the round trip would cost twenty cents.
Jiang Sheng had never seen so much money. She felt distressed and couldn't bear it. She would rather walk four hours to the county.
But in the past few days, she saw her brothers' earning power, and also saw Xu Mo's loneliness and silence, and the little money fan finally decided to let go.
"You, you, you, you rented a donkey cart." Zheng Ruqian was also shocked. When he came to his senses, he was heartbroken. "How much does it cost? I'm afraid I'll spend all the money I earned today."
Jiang Sheng gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not renting."
"Not for rent?" Zheng Ruqian was confused and turned around to look around.
Fang Heng and Xu Mo were both confused, but Wen Zhiyun looked calm.
That's because Jiang Sheng had discussed it with Fourth Brother in advance. She still had two golden beans in her hand, which were originally intended to be given to the doctor. Later, the doctor was killed and the two golden beans were still in Jiang Sheng's hand. She thought about it. I thought it was too cruel to have to run for four hours every time I went to the county to deliver fungi. Riding in an ox cart for a long time was not cost-effective, so I might as well bite the bullet and buy a donkey cart.
Wen Zhiyun expressed his support. He did not think about accepting the golden beans for his parents. He only said that Jiang Sheng could use it as he wished.
Jiang Sheng bought the donkey cart with a mouthful of blood.
The price of the old donkey is two taels of silver, and the price of the flatbed truck is only three hundred copper plates.
Jiang Sheng handed over two small golden beans and got back a lot of copper coins.
"Two cents of golden beans are equivalent to three taels of silver, one tael of silver is worth a thousand copper plates. Do you want seven hundred copper plates, or half a tael of broken silver?" asked the coachman.
Jiang Sheng said without any hesitation, "I want seven hundred copper coins."
She also wanted to try it, the feeling of the money bag rattling.
Mrs. Car was very kind and patiently counted seven hundred copper coins to her. Before leaving, she asked several children, "Can you drive a donkey cart?"
Several little heads looked at Fang Heng.
Fang · The whole family hoped · Good Skills · Heng was a little at a loss. He had driven a car, but it was a carriage.
No one taught him how to drive a donkey cart.
But think about it, donkeys and horses are close relatives, and they look... similar, so they should be considered similar.
Fang Heng never showed timidity in his life, even if he felt weak in his heart, he would nod with a cold face.
When people look at it, they feel that this kid is calm and he will definitely do it if he says he can.
The old coachman said no more and returned with the golden beans in his arms.
The remaining children were jumping around the old donkey.
Some touched the head, and some lifted the tail. Even Wen Zhiyun couldn't help but touch the solid flat wooden cart.
Later, they also had donkey carts.
Jiang Sheng tried hard to put away his big tooth flowers, but he was still so happy that he could see his throat, "Second brother and third brother, you guys put the eldest brother on the carriage, and we will deliver the fungi."
"Me?" Xu Mo's face was full of confusion when his name was called.
But soon he figured it out, and his doubts turned into confusion.
He said, why did sister Jiang Sheng, who only buys rice noodles, grit her teeth and buy a donkey cart? It turned out to be so that he would not be left alone.
The little girl is young, but her thoughts are particularly delicate.
The tip of Xu Mo's nose was a little sore, but he was embarrassed to have so many younger brothers and sisters, so he could only endure it and let the soreness spread from the tip of his nose to his throat.
With the joint efforts of Zheng Ruqian and Fang Heng, Xu Mo was placed smoothly on the flat car.
Jiang Sheng jumped up and down and sat next to him.
Wen Zhiyun held this medical skill and sat on the other side.
Zheng Ruqian was left to put the mushrooms on the back of the car and sit on them.
Now, it's up to the third brother.
Several pairs of big wet eyes looked over, and Fang Heng suddenly felt that there was a long way to go. He gritted his teeth, suppressed his imperceptible timidity, sat on the back of the old donkey, picked up the whip, and flicked it.
"drive!"
With a soft drink, the old donkey snorted and ran away.
The four people on the flat car almost fell down.
Fang Heng was startled and quickly tightened the donkey's mouth. The donkey cart stopped suddenly. Before the people on the flat cart could recover from their face-to-leg posture, they fell back again and looked at the sky.
"Ah..." Zheng Ruqian shouted, desperately protecting every fungus.
Wen Zhiyun and Jiang Sheng held their sides for fear of crushing Xu Mo's injured leg.
"Third brother." Jiang Sheng screamed, "Can you drive a donkey cart?"
Fang Heng responded to her with a whip: I know how to do it, I really know how to do it.
It's just that the donkey is old and a little disobedient.
After stumbling and ups and downs all the way, my buttocks were turned into eight pieces. After an hour, I finally arrived at the county.
Jiang Sheng jumped off the donkey cart, opened his mouth and spit out the yellow water.
"Jiang Sheng, are you okay?" The brothers were all very concerned.
Jiang Sheng waved his hand, opened his mouth, and took another mouthful of yellow water, "I'm fine...I just...yUe...sick."
I have seen people who are sick from horses and carriages, but I have never seen people who are sick from donkey carriages.
The people passing by all looked at him sideways, and when they saw that the person beating the donkey was a child, they all smiled knowingly.
"Jiang Sheng, it's the third brother's fault. The third brother will definitely not let you faint when he goes back." Fang Heng apologized sincerely, his face full of guilt.
Jiang Sheng finished vomiting, drank some more saliva, and finally recovered.
She patted Fang Heng on the shoulder and said, "The third brother is just unskilled at the beginning. In the future, he will definitely be a qualified donkey cart master."
Fang Heng pursed his lips and said no more.
They lined up to arrive at the gate of Xieyang County, crossed the city gate, and arrived inside the county.
If Shili Town is a large market with a dazzling array of meat and vegetables for sale and a rich atmosphere of life, then the county town is relatively calm, majestic, flat and majestic.
Instead of the dense crowds of small stalls and hawkers, there are regular shops on both sides of the road.
The clothes of the people coming and going have also changed from coarse linen clothes to fine cloth robes. Some of the men wear jade crowns and some are shaking paper fans. Their steps are brisk and graceful, which is clearly different from the dark men in the villages and towns.
Jiang Sheng had been to the county before, but every time he stole some food, he ran away quickly and never paid close attention to the county.
I don’t even know where Youran lives.
Fortunately, she had a clever mouth and after asking two or three times, she found this store that was said to be opened by a wealthy family in Fengjing in the county.
Leisurely residence.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the magnificent restaurant. As soon as he looked up and saw the name on the plaque, Fang Heng's expression suddenly changed.
Isn't this... the Jiang family's industry?
