The road outside Shangyuan Village is now a flat road that is two meters wide. There is a layer of sand on the road that extends from the bottom of the plateau to the entrance of the manor. Even in heavy rain, it does not accumulate mud.
The construction of this road does not require manor materials, and it is made up of sand from the villagers who are coming and going.
On both sides of the road is Qu City. People in the village are used to gathering here to buy and sell daily goods. They can have a fair price regardless of their purchase. Three or five chickens can be replaced with needles and threads, and one or two buckets of mixed beans can be replaced with salt and vinegar.
Occasionally, the weaver weaving women who were working early thought that they were constantly working today, and they were cruel to fattening their fingers. When they returned home, the young man praised and their children laughed. The man even smiled silly and brought the wooden basin of his feet to the bed.
The people in the village only focus on the current life and are reluctant to rent the inns along the streets. However, the guests from the distant village have nowhere to live, and they also remember when the new goods will be sold on the farm. They dare not leave for a moment, so they can only stay for a long time.
In addition to the villagers and merchants who are in charge of business, another group of people who make a living have also emerged here.
These people are flexible in their hands and eyes. Whenever they see new and familiar customers entering and leaving, they will come up and ask: “Do you have tickets? No matter how much, I will receive the highest price here! One ticket is one and one cloth, and now you can use it!”
Some people who are not familiar with the market and current affairs were happy when they heard that there was such a cheaper price. They took out the red and green patterns and long papers in their hands and smiled: “I have more than ten pieces here, don’t you lie? I just went to the shop and sold six or seven dou of beans. The shopkeepers stuffed them over. I also planned to use them…”
“I want them, no matter how much, there are tickets in stock!”
Before the man finished speaking, he was pulled out of the road. He was about to panic and struggle, and a roll of cloth was stuffed into his arms. The bill was naturally taken away. He returned to the middle of the road with a confused look on his face. He then muttered to himself, “Are you at a loss?”
He was not so stupid, so he turned to a stall selling baskets on the side of the road, bent down and asked, “Brother, what are the things that the paper and people call for canal tickets from this village?”
“That canal ticket, you have to collect it. In addition to the goods, you also have to check the canal tickets for the sales of goods in Shangyuan, Lijiazhuang. Without this ticket, you can’t buy his goods no matter how much you have!”
The stall owner was a enthusiastic person, and he laughed after hearing this.
“So that’s the case. That’s useless. I can’t use it to buy his goods!”
The man was relieved when he heard this. He only felt that the person who bought the ticket with the cloth just now was a fool. The owner of the manor was also a boring person who did boring things. Can you still use the dragon liver and phoenix courage to fight for it? The villagers have food and clothing, so what do they want outside?
At this moment, a team of knights rushed out of the village, guarding the middleHe walked straight to a large shop outside the village.
“New, new!”
Seeing this scene, the market, which was originally orderly, suddenly became boiling, shouting everywhere, and people ran towards the shop everywhere. The stall owner who was guarding the stall also jumped a few feet high and hurriedly shouted to the stall next to him, “Help me see the goods!”
Before he finished speaking, the stall owner had already jumped more than a foot away.
As soon as I asked the man about this scene, I was a little stunned for a moment. I couldn’t figure out what the Shangyuan Township people were doing. Because I was curious, I was not in a hurry to rush on the road and squatted on the side of the road to see what the hell was.
After half an hour, the stall owner returned in sweat, holding a carved bamboo tube in his hand, and sat down with an unlucky look on his face. He sighed to the stall owner next to him, “It’s better to sell the tickets if you only grab a piece of apricot blossoms!”
The spectator was so happy when he heard the stall owner was in a hurry to buy the food, “Brother, are you Shangyuan people too slim? You don’t know how to make this honey pot at home, so you insist on fighting here?”
“You know what!”
The stall owner was in a bad mood without grabbing the goods he liked. After hearing this, he rolled his eyes and shouted at the stall: “Li Zhuang’s apricot blossoms are only half a pound, first come first served!”
As soon as he shouted, several people gathered to ask about the price. The stall owner directly quoted three times the current price. The spectator was very surprised that the local customs were corrupt, and he couldn’t help but say, “My family also has food, which is several times lower than this thief!”
After hearing this, the few people who were still bargaining, they immediately surrounded the spectator and competed for the premium. After seeing this, the spectator couldn’t help but stare at the sight and nodded quickly, “I’ll go home and let my family rush to make it. We’ll be here in the second half of the year. We…”
“Your family makes it? Not Li Zhuang? Get out of it, don’t make trouble!”
When the few people heard this, they immediately scattered the birds and beasts, and turned to look back at the stall. The apricot blossoms had been sold.
A few people couldn’t buy the goods, and they all glared at the spectators, and some were already waving their hands. Seeing this, the spectators hurriedly drove away from here with a cloth. After walking out for a long time, they spat: “Crazy, Shang Yuan is all crazy!”
