Chapter 209 High Price
The first batch of food in the space came out of the pot and Lin Shu put it in the refrigerator.
Guessing that my eldest brother should be back, I went to wash up and slipped out of the space.
Heizi licked the back of Lin Shu's hand with his tongue, turned his butt towards her, and twisted it a few times.
"You want to carry me." Lin Shu said affirmatively.
Heizi nodded repeatedly, deliberately compared his height with Baozi, and looked at her expectantly.
"Hey, that's good."
When Lin Shu heard that Heizi offered to be her mount, there was no reason for her to refuse.
She also wanted to let Heizi carry her on his back and take a stroll down the street!
He climbed onto the heizi's broad back, put his face on his neck, and clamped his legs together.
"Let's go!"
The cheerful voices made Heizi take excited steps and run around the corridor.
The three of them were excited, grinning silently, chasing and playing together.
The only drawback was that the place was too small and Heizi couldn't run away with his speed.
Heizi jumped onto the beam with one step and jumped between the beams, scaring Lin Shu so much that she quickly hugged his neck.
I stuck my head out and looked down. It was at least three meters high.
The buns and the rat in the hot water below were obviously smaller.
Heizi lay on the beam, wagging his tail proudly, looking down at the two from a condescending attitude.
The drowned rat bared its teeth at the black cub and climbed up onto the beam with its sharp claws exposed.
"Squeak~"
He raised his claws and hit the black cub, then put his claws on his waist and roared at it.
The black cub who was being trained seemed to know that he had done something wrong.
He just hung his head and let the drowned rat scold him, but he just refused to let go of his little master on his back.
'Woooooo~'
Baozi had no choice but to suppress his voice and turned around in circles in anger.
Small flames were popping out of the dog's eyes.
"Shitou, look what big brother brought back."
During the confrontation between the three, Lin Hongyi came back with a loud voice, and Heizi let out a sigh of relief.
It jumped down with Lin Shu on its back and landed steadily in front of Baozi.
The little guy lay down with his paws on his head, allowing Baozi to hit him.
Lin Shu shook her head helplessly. She never interfered with the interactions between the three.
Baozi and Luotangshu are like nannies to Heizi.
No one can take their place, even though they are different species.
...
"What's going on? What did Heizi do wrong?"
As soon as Lin Hongyi entered the main house, he saw Heizi lying there like a bullied young wife.
The younger sister didn't say a word, it seemed that the matter was quite serious.
It would be better for him not to interrupt, so as not to get into trouble.
Having been beaten by society, Lin Hongyi increasingly understands the principle of keeping a low profile.
Lin Shu shook her head and asked with a smile.
"Brother, what a good price."
"Hahaha, that's a price you definitely wouldn't expect."
Lin Hongyi's attention was immediately diverted. He took out a few banknotes and placed them on the small kang table, smiling.
"Sheep skin 10 taels, grey fox skin 300 taels, white fox skin 600 taels, red fox skin 1,000 taels, snow rabbit skin 8 taels.
The total is 1,918 taels of silver notes. I asked for 100 taels of gold notes, and the remaining 910 taels are silver notes."
It was the first time that Lin Hongyi made so much money. He smiled so hard that his teeth were showing and he even walked in a floating manner.
When driving a horse-drawn carriage, my mood goes up and down like a roller coaster.
He looked at everyone with suspicion, afraid of being targeted.
When I came back, my palms were full of sweat.
"Brother is really amazing. He actually sold it at such a good price."
Lin Shu took the gold and silver bills and counted them for a while.
There were obviously not many tickets, but he counted them with great interest.
This is all money!
She took out a silver note of 118 taels, pushed it in front of Lin Hongyi, and said with a smile.
"This is my reward for my hard work, brother. Make more money and marry a sister-in-law!"
"Hey, how can I ask for your money?
You paid for all the expenses, and I was just a runner. I also gained a lot of knowledge.
In the end, it was the eldest brother who made the profit. "
Lin Hongyi scratched his head and smiled foolishly, but his eyes were fixed on the banknotes in front of him.
"Haha, just take it if it's given to you!
Follow me and I guarantee you will have soup to drink.”
Lin Shu stuffed the banknote into his hand and said, resting her chin on her hand.
“The price of fur in the Imperial City is extremely high, which is related to the border war and heavy snow.
Let's take this opportunity to sell all these furs. What did Big Brother discuss with the other party? "
"The other party seemed a little anxious and asked me about the source of the goods many times, and also asked for as much as he could get."
"What did Big Brother answer?"
“I said the supply is on the way, I’m just the front line.
Is this answer okay?" Lin Hongyi said nervously.
He was afraid that if he said something wrong, he would ruin his younger sister's business.
"No problem, let's leave him alone for two days.
Brother, you can go to other stores to ask about prices." Lin Shu suggested.
"Okay, let's go in the afternoon." Lin Hongyi nodded.
"Shi Tou, please keep these banknotes for me! I'm afraid it's not safe to carry them with me."
“It’s no problem for me to keep it for you, but it would be best if you could change it into gold or silver.
It is not very safe to carry gold and silver with you.
I'm afraid that if a war breaks out, I'll become a piece of waste paper.
Before I leave, I will also exchange my gold and silver notes for real gold and silver."
"Okay, it's up to you."
Lin Hongyi agreed happily. As the saying goes, listening to advice is the key to a good meal.
...
Two days later, a carriage left the courtyard.
Lin Shu lay in a pile of furs, sticking her head out to look at the street scene.
Most shops have hung up festive red lanterns.
A few shops are setting up ladders and hanging red lanterns while there are fewer customers.
She calculated silently that in three days it would be her first New Year in this other world.
This body's birthday is the first day of the new year.
Speaking of which, there is meat to eat every year.
But when the original owner's mouth finally reached it, there wasn't even a trace of soup.
I don’t know where Dad Lin and the others went.
The carriage swayed as it drove into a narrow alley with an open gate at regular intervals.
People coming in and out of the courtyard were busy loading and unloading goods, and there were also shouts of people delivering goods.
The carriage stopped outside a deserted backyard, and before it even stopped a young man ran out.
"Mr. Lin, please come in."
The young man pulled the reins and took the initiative to invite him.
"Manager Tian has been waiting for a long time. I am waiting here. Please come in."
The young man pulled the reins, fearing that the carriage would be pulled away.
The heavy snow blocked the roads, and the store’s business was booming, but the goods could not be supplied.
Shopkeeper Tian was so anxious that his mouth was blistered. It was hard to find someone who would come to him to discuss business.
Manager Tian gave the order that the person must be detained.
Otherwise, get out.
As soon as the carriage entered the yard, Shopkeeper Tian, who had been informed by the waiter, hurried out to greet them.
"Mr. Lin, please come in.
Xiao Sanzi, bring hot tea and snacks."
"Okay, I'll be here soon."
The waiters responded loudly, and the waiters who came out one after another all had happy faces.
Shopkeeper Tian stood in front of the carriage, waiting for Lin Hongyi to open the curtain.
He couldn't wait to inspect the goods.
As for hot tea and snacks, I really didn’t have time to serve them to the guests.
Shopkeeper Tian watched without blinking as the curtains of the carriage opened, and what came into view was a carriage full of furs.
His gaze finally landed on the little boy in the furs, and he said in surprise.
"Mr. Lin, what is this?"
