Li Kui is a country bumpkin who has never seen the world.

Even if he has forward vision, almost a thousand years ahead, after all, he is not a professional in history and knows a lot of common sense knowledge. But in the Northern Song Dynasty, he would still be blinded.

What's more, in remote places such as Jingdong East Road, Mengshan Town under Yishui County under Yizhou...

All his memories of the Northern Song Dynasty basically stayed within a few dozen miles of Baizhang Village. Even if he was hunting, he would not dare to enter the deep mountains and old forests. What if he got lost and couldn't get out?

For him, this trip to Yishui County was just for a big event.

The closer he got to the county seat, his eyes kept looking at the surrounding scenery. The old patriarch and Qi Shu also secretly laughed. Even though Li Kui was so aggressive in Baizhang Village, after leaving Baizhang Village, he was just a country boy. Even

The father and son thought unkindly that if this guy entered the county town, he would probably get lost.

"Thatched cottage!"

"Mud wall!"

"Bad review!"

If you are so poor, you still dare to say that you are the richest dynasty in ancient China?

"This earthen wall is not much better than the wall in Baizhang Village. It doesn't even have two feet. Do you dare to call it a city wall that can't even stop a thief?"

"After entering the city, there will be lots of potholes. If it rains, you might get splashed with mud?"

…

No one knew that Li Kui was muttering all kinds of complaints, and seemed to be very unpopular with everything he saw and heard. But he couldn't help but look around curiously.

After entering the city, the old patriarch said to Li Kui: "Kui Wazi, your seventh uncle and I are going to sell mountain products, and you take Li Quan to buy some hot food to satisfy our hunger." As he spoke, he took out seven or eight big boys from his pocket and hesitated.

Then he added five more coins and handed them to Li Kui.

Li Kui also knew that there were mountain products to sell. These mountain products did not belong to the old patriarch's own family. Instead, the entire village gathered valuable mountain products and asked the old patriarch to take them with him to sell these mountain specialties. They could be sold in the county.

The extra sales in Mengshan Town made a lot of money. When doing business, Li Kui didn't do anything, and Li Quan didn't do anything bad. It was already good. He kept shouting all the way: "I'm hungry!"

If we don't give him some sweetness, this silly boy Li Quan will definitely fall into disgrace.

Li Kui looked down at the money handed to him by the old patriarch and asked: "Third uncle, what are you doing?"

"Silly boy, have you brought any money?"

The old patriarch smiled and said: "There are folks in Mengshan Town, so they can naturally take care of your meals. Many mountain products in the village are sold on consignment in the town. You don't have to settle the bill immediately for how much you sell or eat. But in the county town, you have to raise your head.

It’s a place to spend money. If you, a silly boy, don’t have any money in your pocket, you won’t be able to move around in the county town.”

Speaking of money, Li Kui naturally didn't have any. But he brought his treasure to the city, and he even felt that he could raise all the capital to make a fortune today.

His chest was beating loudly, and Li Kuihao said angrily: "Third uncle, don't worry, we won't eat the King's meal. Although I didn't bring any money, I also brought local products, which are valuable, and Li Quan's

My stomach is bursting and I can’t eat all the food.”

"Oh, you brought some wild goods?"

The old patriarch said curiously: "In Baizhang Village, leather is worth a lot of money. Fox skins and badger skins in mid-winter can be sold at a good price. Unfortunately, there are too few and they are rare on weekdays. Roe deer and suede skins are more common, but

The value is not high; the price of wolf skin is quite good, as long as the skin is good, merchants can pay a high price. But you hunted all the wolves in the village this year, and the skins are all worn on your mother, what do you give in exchange for money?"

"Third uncle, please leave it alone. Just tell me how many pharmacies there are in the city and where they are?"

Li Kui yelled anxiously. He had eaten dry food for a day and his throat was sore. He didn't treat himself to some delicious food after entering the county town.

The old patriarch laughed, as if he had a special bad taste for Li Kui's overestimation of his abilities. It was not a schadenfreude, but at most it was the elder's amusement at the younger's mistakes. Since Li Kui insisted, he might as well let this kid get a thumbs-down, fine.

Let this kid recognize the facts. He estimated that Li Kui must have picked the medicine. Baizhang Village is in the mountains. If picking medicine could make a fortune, the villagers would have already started thinking about it.

I remember when I was young, I followed my grandpa into the city and was as confident as Li Kui. Unfortunately, I almost got lost in the city and sat on the street crying all afternoon...

Instead of preaching, it is better to let him go on his own.

Even suffering a loss is also a blessing.

But he was a little worried that with Li Kui's fiery temper, if he caused trouble, the people in the city would not be able to withstand his bullying better than the people in the village, so he told him: "Kui Wazi, look at this, Li Quan, this kid has no brains.

That's good, don't get lost. Also, don't be reckless. When you go out, what is convenient for others is what is convenient for yourself. Only by being tolerant in everything can you be safe. Peace is happiness!"

"Third uncle, I saved you!"

"It is said that people are poor when they leave their hometown, but without the help of the villagers..."

As people get older, they talk more, which often arouses the impatience of the younger generations. Under the earnest guidance of the old patriarch, I find that my words are not quite right. The main reason is that Li Kui does not have a very good reputation in the village.

Even if he committed a crime in the village, the tribesmen in the same village would not be at odds with him, but Li Kui... it's hard to say.

Well, Li Kui has already offended all his clan members, so he probably can't count on any help from his clan members.

The old patriarch sighed: "Go, go! Your third uncle and I will go to the market. If your sales go well, come to the market. If you are delayed along the way, go to the county government office and wait."

"Do not worry!"

Li Kui confidently walked towards the drug store pointed out by the old patriarch. There were only three or four streets in this poor county. How could he get lost? It was easy to find the drug store. He kept walking towards the street. After a while, he was there.

I saw the signboard, Jimin Hall.

Li Kui walked into the medicine shop with his legs crossed, and the strong smell of herbal medicines hit his face. After winter, the business of the herbal medicine shop was better than usual. However, only a few people visited, and they were all in a hurry. After grabbing the medicine,

Leave in a hurry without any delay. After all, someone in the family is sick, and it is inevitable to be worried.

Dang Dang Dang

Li Kui leaned against the counter of the drug store and slapped the counter of the drug store loudly. He said arrogantly: "Big business is here."

The apprentice from the drug store walked slowly to Li Kui, looked at Li Kui warily across the counter, and made Li Kui very uncomfortable when he said: "You want to cause trouble, but you don't even look at where this place is?"

The reason why Li Kui did this was to increase his momentum so that he could sell the ginseng in his arms at a high price.

Seeing that the other apprentice, Xiao Xiaoyi, was not afraid of him, he was a little embarrassed to get off the stage. His raised fist was already in the air. Thinking of the old patriarch's instructions, he immediately put it down. He was also surprised that he didn't have such a character at all.

, irritable, impatient, and seems to get angry easily. He guessed that it was influenced by Li Kui's irascible personality.

I'm afraid it's hard to change your temperament even in a short period of time.

Li Kui thought to himself: "I can bear it!"

He took out a cloth bag from his chest and opened it, revealing about ten branches of mountain ginseng. The smallest one weighed two taels, and the larger one was estimated to weigh half a catty. This pride doubled his confidence, and he shouted: "Evaluate the price."

Right? You, an apprentice, are not qualified to discuss my business. Let the shopkeeper come out and let's discuss the price."

The young apprentice grinned and sneered, "I don't think the shopkeeper is too busy. Fortunately, although I'm not good at studying, I guess I still have the responsibility to bring you the medicinal materials."

Li Kui stared and said, "Do you know what this is?"

“Ginseng!”

The young apprentice rolled his eyes and completely classified Li Kui as a country bumpkin.

Li Kui was losing his momentum one after another, and was secretly annoyed. He said to himself that this guy from the Northern Song Dynasty was not easy to mess with, so why did he dare to be so arrogant? The ginseng he sent was at least two ounces heavy, and it was wild ginseng. This package of ginseng,

A little talk can be worth a pharmacy, right? Do apprentices dare to talk about such a big business?

Unfortunately, Li Kui's thoughts did not resonate with the apprentices. The apprentice in the drug store rolled his eyes and said: "This is the life of the Shangdang, and the appearance is average and inferior. I'll give you two ounces of money!"

"Two ounces of money?" Li Kuibao's eyes widened and he couldn't bear it any longer. He picked up the little apprentice's clothes, lifted the person out of the drug store counter, and pulled the person with the clothes in front of him, saying fiercely: "You kid

How dare you open your teeth! How about two ounces of money to coax the child to play?"

"Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, there are thugs making trouble!"

The apprentice seemed to be shocked by Li Kui's momentum. At first, the apprentice was stunned, but when he woke up, he immediately pulled out his throat and started shouting.

"Who dares to cause trouble in our Jimin Hall?"

While they were talking, a man walked out of the back hall. He had a face as thick as a date, a strong back and a strong waist. He wore a black pleated outer hat with a round piece of white jade in the middle. He was wearing a plain double-breasted white robe and a pair of suede leather boots.
