"I know, but I definitely didn't know that my cousin would buy so much. We didn't expect that a book would cost twelve taels. This is enough for our family to chew for a year." Xiuhong looked at him anxiously, and said: "My family also has a younger brother and two younger sisters. They also learn to read, so these papers are for them to practice calligraphy. I see that you put these papers at the door, and they are a little yellowed. It seems that they are not very sold. , might as well send me a few dozen."

"A few dozen won't work, I'll give you one dozen at most." The shopkeeper gritted his teeth and could only whisper.

Xiuhong smiled openly, took another dozen and said, "Two dozen, two dozen, we can carry it."

No matter how bad the paper is, a dozen of such thick paper can sell for 300 cash, and two dozen can sell for 600 cash.

The shopkeeper said angrily: "There are so many things, can you children handle them?"

"We can hold it, we can hold it, we can hold it with a few more dozen."

The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, you can't take any more, girl, you'd better pay the bill quickly."

Only then did Mu Yangling take out fifty-two taels of silver from the bag and gave him the money. The shopkeeper watched their backs disappear, and the anger on his face disappeared immediately. He smiled a little, shook his head and said with a smile: "These children are quite shrewd. of."

The book was wrapped in oiled paper and Mu Yangling held it in his arms. When the three of them walked back to the agreed place, Zhang Liu was already waiting there.

According to his inquiries, the mutton restaurants and restaurants in the western part of the city all buy from three butchers.

This is good news, there are few people, so please.

Zhang Liu said, "The butcher who has done the most business is surnamed Qin, and he can be found in the vegetable market."

Mu Yangling looked up at the sky, and decided to have lunch first before inviting people.

It was past lunch time, there were not many people in the vegetable market, and most of the stalls were empty, so Butcher Qin just sat on a chair and slept.

Mu Yangling and the others inquired all the way over. As soon as the man with a fierce face, tall and strong, lying on a chair and resting his feet on another chair came into view, the three of them knew that he was Qin Butcher. There was no way. , looks too iconic.

The three of them walked up to him, and Mu Yangling looked at the meat on his chopping board, and thought that since he hadn't packed it up and went home, he must still be in business, so it shouldn't be a problem if she woke him up... right?

Just as Mu Yangling was about to reach out to call for someone, Qin Tuhu opened his eyes fiercely. Seeing three and a half children standing in front of him, he grinned and asked, "Are you buying meat?"

Mu Yangling looked at Butcher Qin who was better off smiling than not smiling, silently withdrew his hand, shook his head and said, "Uncle Qin, I have a business to talk to you about."

Butcher Qin frowned and looked at them.

Well, frowning is worse than smiling, but the three of them managed not to be intimidated, but Xiuhong and Bowen looked at him curiously.

The people next to him laughed and said, "Old Qin, don't scare other people's children, talk to them about business, ah!"

Mu Yangling was sure that she saw the embarrassment and embarrassment on Qin Tuhu's face, and she was absolutely right, although he was still fierce when he was embarrassed.

"What business do you want to talk about?" Seeing that the three people in front of him didn't seem to be intimidated by him, and he had a good impression of them, Qin Tuhu asked like a bell.

The vegetable market is not a place to discuss business. Mu Yangling looked around, and the butcher Qin understood it at a glance. He left the stall to a person next to him to help take care of it, and took the initiative to find a place.

So, the four of them stood in the cold wind and talked about business. Mu Yangling hurriedly took Bowen and Xiuhong to the foot of the wall to hide from the wind. Seeing a sudden flash across Qin Butcher's face, she smiled and said, "This place is not bad. The air is good, and there is no one there."

Qin Butcher's face was even more embarrassing, and he hurriedly explained: "This street is full of vegetable markets, and there are no teahouses to rest at all. It's the quietest place here, and it's tasteless..."

Mu Yangling nodded, "Uncle Qin, I have a group of prairie sheep, so I want to ask if you want them?"

Qin Butcher was taken aback, looked Mu Yangling up and down, and asked, "Aren't you from Xingyuan Mansion?"

Xingzhou Mansion is not far from Xingyuan Mansion, and Xingzhou Mansion is the state capital under Xingyuan Mansion, so Mu Yangling has no accent problem.

"I'm from Xingyuan Mansion, but I'm from Xingzhou Mansion. My sheep came from Hanzhong Mansion."

The Hanzhong mansion was forced by the barbarians to use the fields to raise livestock. He knew about it. At that time, he followed the big guys and scolded the barbarians for being perverted. If the land is not grown, it is used to grow grass and raise sheep. Isn't it just for money?

He was shocked, and believed most of what Mu Yangling said, looked her up and down, and asked hesitantly: "The little girl is only twelve years old, why does your adult let you come to discuss this business?"

After the new year is indeed twelve, Mu Yangling said with a smile: "My parents didn't come, just me and my younger brother and sister came."

Butcher Qin opened his mouth wide. Xingyuan Mansion is not close to here, at least he has never been there.

He stared at her fiercely, not to mention the little girl in front of him, the two children next to him also looked at him calmly, not afraid at all, the boy even yawned and leaned against the wall thinking sleep.

So calm, it really seems to be doing something big.

But even if Xingzhou Mansion is a border gate, the children in it should not be so precocious and capable. They dare to take their younger siblings out to venture out at the age of twelve?

Butcher Qin thought about it for a while, and felt that he had nothing for others to figure out, so he nodded and said, "Then you wait, I'll close the stall, and I'll go and see the goods with you later."

He carried all the meat on Butcher Qin's chopping board to another butcher, patted him on the shoulder and left.

Bowen dozed off along the way, and Mu Yangling knew that it was time for the child to take a nap. Because he was weak, his schedule had always been stable, and naps must be guaranteed.

Although he was on his way for the past two days, as soon as it was time for his nap, he would climb into the carriage, lie down on a thick quilt, build another bed by himself, and sleep with his feet a little lower.

Zhang Liu, who came back early with his things on his back, was already looking at the entrance of the village. When he saw Mu Yangling coming back, he hurried over and said, "Girl, a rich family in the village wants to buy sheep from our family. We didn't dare to make the decision. We have to wait for you to come back." Woolen cloth."

Mu Yangling raised her eyebrows in surprise. She didn't expect that there would be a business that came up on her own initiative. She asked with a smile, "How much does he want to buy?"

"Everything," Zhang Liu said with faint anger on his face, "Girl, he is very arrogant, which is nothing, but he paid the price as soon as he came, saying that it was all inclusive for two or two, and he also brought a lot. People are around the fence."

The smile on Mu Yangling's face disappeared, and she didn't avoid the Qin butcher, and asked Zhang Liu, "A rich household in the village? Very rich?"

Zhang Liu immediately shared all his information, which shows their skills, Zhang Liu was able to inquire about these secrets from the villagers after a long time since he came back.
