"Young Master, you are so awesome!" Xiao Luo admired sincerely as she looked at the grain pulled by the two oxcarts behind.
A bottle of wine, and finally 1,400 kilograms of grain were exchanged. Not to mention Xiao Luo, even Du Laosan's hand holding the knife trembled slightly.
I heard from Tang Ping that this wine was a little more expensive than what they usually drank. Thinking about it this way, what kind of wine did he usually drink...
"Just average, probably third in the world!" Tang Ping shrugged.
"Little brother, please stay!"
While thinking about it, a man in green clothes appeared in front of Tang Ping's oxcart, it was Cui Zhongqing just now.
"What else does Second Young Master Cui have to do?"
Tang Ping also felt strange just now. He and Wangshulou had negotiated the price of 1,400 kilograms of grain. He originally thought that Cui Ergong would come out to bid, but he didn't expect that he would just stand aside with a smile, which made him a little surprised. Impenetrable.
"I helped you so much just now, and you didn't show any sign of it?" Cui Zhongqing asked with a smile.
"What did Second Young Master Cui do for me?" Tang Ping pretended to be stupid.
"You..." Cui Zhongqing glanced at Tang Ping, and then laughed: "Hahahaha, little brother, it's interesting. I told Wangshulou to charge my account for the food and wine you ordered just now!"
Tang Ping didn't expect Cui Zhongqing to be so shameless. He had just sold the bottle of wine to Wangshulou in exchange for 1,400 kilograms of grain. How could Wangshulou be stingy enough to charge him for the two plates of food and wine.
But it was impossible to drag Cui Zhongqing to Wangshu Tower to confront him again, so Tang Ping could only ask helplessly: "Then how do you want me to repay you?"
He especially emphasized the articulation of those two words.
"I feel like the little brother didn't say anything nice. Forget it, I still don't know what the little brother's name is?"
Cui Zhongqing asked with a smile, biting the small words very hard.
"Tang Ping, from Shanghe Village outside the city!" The two oxcarts brought back the food. It couldn't be hidden anyway, so Tang Ping answered directly and openly.
"It turns out to be little brother Tang. Since I've invited you to have a meal, how about you also invite me to your home for a meal?"
Tang Ping once again saw Cui Zhongqing's shamelessness.
"If little brother can invite me to drink the wine just now, I can also do it..."
"1,400 kilograms of grain?" Tang Ping asked in surprise. He still had several bottles of that wine in his store. If he could exchange for 1,400 kilograms of more grain, it would be easier to complete his mission.
"Brother Tang, I am the second eldest child in the family, and I usually don't have much pocket money." Cui Zhongqing said with a wry smile: "I can give you up to 100 kilograms of pickles!"
"Okay!" Anyway, if there are no jujubes, it would be good to get some food for the villagers.
And Cui Zhongqing is really interesting. Since he wants to live in the Tang Dynasty, he must deal with the people here.
After Cui Zhongqing heard Tang Ping's promise, he jumped directly onto the bullock cart and sat next to Tang Ping.
"When did Brother Tang arrive in Shanghe Village?"
"yesterday!"
"Oh? Then why do you need so much food at once?"
"Distribute it to the people in the village!"
"Brother Tang, you are so benevolent, but as far as I know, isn't that the place that His Majesty granted General Li Jing Li?"
Tang Ping turned to look at Cui Zhongqing. This man didn't have the airs of a wealthy family, but he talked a lot and asked questions one after another.
It just so happened that even the people in Shanghe Village who entrusted small land to Li Jing knew about it.
"He gave it to me!" Tang Ping smiled mysteriously.
"Why did General Li give Shanghe Village to you?"
"you guess!"
"Little brother, you should know that Wangshu Tower is the property of the Wang family, right? Although you sold the wine to them in the end today, it is inevitable that someone from the Wang family will be unhappy. Aren't you afraid?"
"Afraid, how about I recognize you as my eldest brother and you protect me?" Tang Ping said with a smile.
"Cover?"
"It's just the Wang family that's causing trouble for me, come and stop me!"
Cui Zhongqing couldn't laugh or cry. This little brother Tang really didn't play by the rules.
"Then I can't... cover you!"
In fact, if it were Tang Ping himself, he would definitely not take a trip into this muddy water. After all, although he is not a bad person, he is definitely not a Bodhisattva with Buddha's light.
He would help someone who really couldn't live in front of him, but he would not rush to save the entire village.
The only thing he wants to do is to protect his own life, and then return to his own time and space completely.
But now the system has given tasks. Although I don’t know what the specific use of the rewarded open garage is, the more things I can use in this time and space, the more confident I will be in saving my life.
Apart from anything else, if I encounter a siege again next time, maybe I can escape in a car?
All the way back to Shanghe Village, the scene in the village is completely different from yesterday.
Work figures can be seen everywhere in the fields. Cui Zhongqing did not expect to see such a scene and was extremely curious.
"Hello, proprietor!"
"The proprietor is back!"
When some villagers saw Tang Ping, and the bullock cart underneath him was clearly carrying bags of grain, they all came up to say hello respectfully.
But Cui Zhongqing secretly muttered in his heart that Tang Ping said he arrived at Shanghe Village just yesterday and immediately brought so much food to help the villagers. Looking at the current appearance of the villagers, he was really good at winning people's hearts.
But this was just an ordinary farm near Chang'an. What was Tang Ping's intention in buying people's hearts like this?
"Sir, you're back!" Lao Cui and Lu Yi also came to greet them at the entrance of the courtyard.
"Well, ask two people to put these grains in the store." Tang Ping jumped off the oxcart and asked, "Is there anything you have to do this morning?"
"Don't worry, sir, everyone is doing a good job. There is a carpenter in the village who even bought us a set of tables and benches to put in the courtyard."
Because it is not convenient for five people to eat in a convenience store now, so Tang Ping said that he would find someone to get a set of benches in the yard. When the time comes, he can pull out the retractable awning above the convenience store door, so that he will not be afraid of the sun. It was raining.
Unexpectedly, I went out for half a morning today and actually finished it.
When Tang Ping walked into the courtyard, Cui Zhongqing was not polite and followed him directly.
Lao Cui and Lu Yi didn't know his origins. They only saw him coming back in the car with Tang Ping, so they didn't stop him.
Cui Zhongqing looked curiously. The outside of the courtyard looked like a run-down courtyard, but he didn't expect that there was a cave inside.
The first thing I saw was a distinctive two-story building, mainly because Tang Ping closed the rolling shutter door when he left.
In the Tang Dynasty, there was no such strange silver gate.
Tang Ping looked at the ancient tables and stools in the yard with satisfaction. Although they looked very ordinary, they were from the Tang Dynasty after all. If they had been kept by his time, they would have been cultural relics for more than a thousand years.
This can be regarded as my first belongings when I came to Datang.
"Xiao Luo, serve tea to Mr. Cui!"
"Okay, do you want to go to Longjing, which you usually drink?" Xiao Luo was still dumbfounded. Anyway, she asked directly if she didn't understand.
"Why are you going to Longjing? Mr. Cui is our son. Let's have a bottle of iced black tea! By the way, don't forget to bring two paper cups!"
Just kidding, I bought high-quality Longjing from a friend. One tael is enough to buy several boxes of iced black tea. This guy always feels weird. Why would I treat him with such good tea?
"Yes!" Xiao Luo nodded, then opened a small door on the rolling shutter door and went in. Cui Zhongqing's wish to pick up the plane and see what happened was frustrated.
Then soon Xiaoluo took a bottle of Kangshuai Fu iced black tea and two paper cups and poured a cup for each of Tang Ping and Cui Zhongqing.
"Master Cui, please!"
