Chapter 23

"Yuanhao, remember, you can't tell anyone about it. Only my sister and brother know about it. Do you understand?" The solemn admonition of Yuanqiu.

Yuan Hao nodded: "sister, I remember."

The sister and brother rushed to the river at the east end of the village to carry water. They didn't give up until the water tank was full. After a while, the full water tank became sewage.

Enough to wash off a jar of water, sister and brother on the body of the dirt is clean.

Just thinking of carrying another jar of water, Uncle Zhang called out.

Yuanqiu can only give up the idea of carrying water, and Yuanhao carries bisanxi out of the door. He sees Uncle Zhang pulling an ox cart with several large baskets on it. There is a large basket of fresh fish and several baskets of dried fish, ready to be sold in the town market.

Yuan Qiu looked at the basket of fresh fish and frowned, "Uncle Zhang, why don't you use wooden barrels to hold fish?"

Uncle Zhang didn't know why, so he asked in a stupefied voice, "why do you want to use wooden barrels to hold fish? Don't the fish have to be put in the fish basket? "

Yuanqiu shook his head: "Uncle Zhang, you are keeping these fish in the broken tank at home. You have never left the water. They are naturally fresh, but now you have to die as soon as you leave the water? If you think about it, can the fish sell at a good price? Once upon a time, you might as well go to the market on your back. Now that you've used a bullock cart, why don't you use a wooden bucket to load fish and store water so that the fish can still be sold alive? "

When Uncle Zhang heard this, he patted his head and said with a smile, "that's really true. I'm really confused. Thanks to Yuanqiu, you reminded me. Come on, I'm going to get fish in wooden barrels."

Uncle Zhang immediately drove the ox cart home, quickly put the fish in the basket into the barrel, and then stored the water. Looking at the fish that were going to come back to life, he grinned with joy.

He has sold fish for countless times. Naturally, he knows that the price of live fish and dead fish are two different things. Today, thanks to the words of Yuanqiu, he was enlightened.

The ox cart is just made of several pieces of wood and two wooden wheels. It's not big enough. It can seat people and pull some goods. After putting the bucket and two baskets, it almost takes up all the seats. Fortunately, the two brothers and sisters are very thin. They can sit down even if they are squeezed.

Uncle Zhang is a rude man. It seems that there are some changes in the faces of his sister and brother, but he doesn't care too much. For the poor children in the countryside, the face plate is not important. The important thing is to have strength and be able to work.

The ox cart led the three people into the city. Xiaoyuan town was dozens of miles away from Xipo village. Fortunately, they got up early and started early, so they didn't miss the morning market.

Uncle Zhang took the ox cart to the vegetable market in the town, unloaded a bucket of live fish, and put two baskets of dried fish on it. Then he found that the basket of sister and brother was not filled with vegetables, but with a kind of green grass that he had never seen before. He wondered, "what do you do with two baskets of dried fish? Why don't you bring food? "

With a mysterious smile, Yuanqiu said to Uncle Zhang, "uncle, this is the dish we want to sell."

Uncle Zhang has never seen this kind of dish in his whole life. It looks like grass, but since Yuanqiu said it was a dish, it must be a dish.

"Uncle, have you ever heard of medicated food?" Asked yuan Qiu.

Uncle Zhang nodded: "I've heard that the shopkeeper of jufulou often buys vegetables here. Once I heard him say that there are medicated meals in jufulou. The rich people in the town like to eat them. They say that eating them is good for their health."

As soon as Yuan Qiu heard this, he knew that he would not come in vain. He asked the way to Jufu building, and made an appointment with Uncle Zhang to go back. This led Yuan Hao to leave the market and go straight to Jufu building.
