Xu Mo fled back to the courtyard in embarrassment.
If the consequence of loving the people like one's own children is to be chased by a matchmaker and jump up and down, then Xu Mo really has to think about whether he should stay hidden.
The younger siblings in the small courtyard had obviously also received the news, and they were all holding back their laughter.
"Brother, you are going to be thirteen soon, so it is not impossible to arrange a marriage." Zheng Ruqian smiled at him with his big teeth, "What a blessing it is to have a virtuous sister-in-law to take care of your food, clothing, housing and transportation."
"Do you want this blessing?" Xu Mo glared at him.
Zheng Ruqian smiled playfully, "I don't want it. I still have to do business. It comes in the wind and rain every day. I'm afraid I'll neglect others."
The weather is getting colder, and the task of transporting vegetables has to be put back on the road again.
This time, he was determined to take advantage of Fucheng Youranju.
Let them know that the vegetables they can eat in winter are not cheap!
"Second brother, are you going away again?" Jiang Sheng grabbed the corner of his clothes with worry in his eyes.
Although the Wang family has been inactive for the past three months, as long as Fang Heng is around, the siblings will be a thorn in the side of the Wang family.
"You can't stop going out just because there's danger." Zheng Ruqian comforted her, "Besides, the Wang family hasn't done anything in the past few months. It may have stopped."
This is not the case.
The Wang family was determined to win over Fang Heng, and everyone saw it.
It would be normal for them to keep looking for trouble. Now that they have not taken any action for three months, either the Wang family themselves are in trouble, or they are holding back something big.
In comparison, the latter is the most likely.
"How about I take the servants to protect the second brother." Fang Heng stood up. "It's just a good opportunity to practice their ability to deal with danger."
Zheng Ruqian's eyes widened and he took a few steps back, "No, the Wang family's target is you. If you don't show up, maybe nothing will happen. As soon as you show up, several desperadoes will come over and kill you."
Fang Heng smiled helplessly.
He knew what his second brother meant. It was safest to stay in Xieyang County. At least he would be protected by the county magistrate and accompanied by the common people. No matter how courageous the desperadoes were, they would not dare to kill people in front of innocent people.
But the big guys also couldn't let go of Zheng Ruqian. It was really dangerous for him to go out alone to buy and transport vegetables.
"Let's do this. You take Jiang Yijiang, Jiangjiang, Jiangjiang, Jiangsanjiang and Jiangjiang, Jiangjiang, Jiangjiang and Jiangjiang. They are the most agile and have the best kung fu." Fang Heng compromised.
Zheng Ruqian reluctantly agreed.
He packed up two donkey carts, took four young men with long sticks, and was about to go to Fucheng.
Wen Zhiyun stopped him with a small medicine box on his back, "Second brother, take me with you."
"Why are you joining in the fun?" Zheng Ruqian was shocked, "Are you taking leave from Doctor Wu again?"
Wen Zhiyun nodded shyly, "Second brother, I want to go out to collect some medicine. Please take me with you. I won't drag you down."
The fourth brother had already talked to this extent, so Zheng Ruqian had no choice but to agree.
Two donkey carts and six children left Xieyang County silently among the crowd without anyone seeing them off.
Go straight to Fucheng.
Their task this time was very heavy. They not only had to discuss the food delivery with Youranju in Fucheng, but also had to bring 500 kilograms of bacon to Youranju in Xieyang County. They also had to sell the excess bacon to other cities. Make a fortune.
The six children on the road were all calm and silent.
Although Zheng Ruqian comforted himself, he was still worried about the Wang family and kept his heart in his chest.
It wasn't until he entered Fucheng that his heart fell back into his stomach.
Hairpin Flower Courtyard.
After three or four months of busy work, the entire courtyard was filled with smoked and sun-dried bacon, and the aunts and ladies hired to make the bacon almost had no place to stay.
Zhang Qiquan asked someone to pack the bacon with oil paper, "Didn't Youranju order 500 kilograms last month? Send it over quickly."
Zheng Ruqian happened to walk to the door. When he heard this, his eyes lit up, "Youranju in Fucheng is indeed a big store. The second batch of bacon is coming just now. The order for Youranju in Xieyang County was just a few days ago."
Zhang Qiquan was surprised and happy, "My boss is here."
He also did not forget to answer Zheng Ruqian's words, "The people who have settled in Fucheng Youran are not the second batch, but the third batch."
After all, the city is large, prices are high, there are many people, and the spending power is far greater than that of the county town.
Based on this calculation, supplying food to the prefectural city should make more money than supplying food to the county town.
Zheng Ruqian was so happy that he didn't care about anything else. He hurriedly brought the vegetables he bought from Yunshui County and left them in part of the hairpin flower courtyard. The rest were brought to the door of Youranju.
Live leisurely in Fucheng.
Zheng Ruqian looked up at the noble shop, straightened his clothes, and walked in with a swagger.
Because he supplies bacon, he is a familiar face. When the second brother saw him, he said hello and asked thoughtfully, "Are you here to see Shopkeeper Hao?"
The shopkeeper of Youranju in Fucheng is named Hao.
Zheng Ruqian nodded, and the second brother went to report it.
Standing at the corner of the stairs, he happened to see Mr. Jiang, whom he had seen in the county, coaxing a young girl in a low voice.
Taking a closer look, isn't it Miss Jiang San who despised little Jiang Sheng last time?
Zheng Ruqian felt disgusted in his heart, curled his lips and looked away.
But the sound of their conversation still reached my ears.
"Huanhuan, please stop arguing with your parents. No one can confirm whether it is true or not. As long as your parents love you, you will be the legitimate daughter of the Jiang family." Mr. Jiang coaxed softly, "Come back with me. Don't It’s in Anshui County.”
"I don't." Miss Jiang San lowered her head with tears in her eyes, "Brother, what if I am really not your biological sister? What if your biological sister comes back? What should I do?"
"Fool, who else could my biological sister be if she wasn't you? You are so similar to your mother." Mr. Jiang was helpless, "Don't listen to those rumors, they are all false."
"But grandma has already suspected..." Miss Jiang San sobbed.
Zheng Ruqian scratched his ears and felt that rich people had so many things to do, even their children could make trouble, but it was none of his business.
Just as shopkeeper Hao waved to him at the door of the private room, Zheng Ruqian quickly rushed over.
About half an hour later, the two people who had experienced a verbal spat walked out of the private room door.
Shopkeeper Hao was surprised. He didn't expect Zheng Ruqian, a young boy, to be so powerful and not give in on the price.
Zheng Ruqian also had lingering fears. He didn't expect Shopkeeper Hao to be such an old man and almost lost to him.
Fortunately, the cooperation was concluded.
Zheng Ruqian will deliver five carts of vegetables to Youranju every month, no matter what the place or the food, as long as they are fresh.
But it only lasts until the spring days when the flowers bloom.
At that time, all the local vegetables have been harvested, and the expensive vegetables from other places are naturally no longer needed.
Shopkeeper Hao is truly shrewd and maximizes profits.
But Zheng Ruqian also had his own considerations. If the dish he transported could never be found locally, then if Youran wanted to make this dish, she would have to ask him to transport it.
Can’t the business continue forever?
Can’t you keep making money?
Zheng Ruqian's little mind jumped over and over. The two foxes, one big and one small, signed an agreement to deliver food and came downstairs with smiles on their faces.
Mr. Jiang just now had no idea where he was, and the person who was talking to Miss Jiang San turned into a girl wearing a goose-yellow dress.
"Your mother wants to find my father through me and ask the Jiang family to help recommend your uncle to be the next Anshui County Sheriff?" Miss Jiang San regained her arrogance and aloofness, "The current Anshui County Sheriff will be transferred soon, but the Sun family If someone wants to sit in this position, shouldn't he ask his in-laws, the Fang family? What should he do with our Jiang family?"
