Chapter 68: Selling Apples Again
Her voice was not loud, and she wouldn't have heard it if she hadn't been passing by her.
It is logical that most of the people who do business like her cannot sell anything, but this is a wealthy area. The strange people can attract the attention of others. In addition, she is talking about Wen Linguo. Even if the people passing by, they can't help but look in her basket curiously, but only see the straw curtain and nothing, so Tang Ning was stopped.
A grand carriage stuck in front of her. The tall horse in front of her was only two meters away. She could still feel the heat emitted by the horse. Tang Ning frowned in discomfort, feeling a little annoyed, but not on her face.
The coachman asked arrogantly, "Boy, take your Wenlinguo and take a look."
Tang Ning didn't move.
The coachman exclaimed, and shouted arrogantly, "Are you deaf when you talk to you? Or do you have nothing to do with Wenlinguo at all, and you have a bad intention to come here?"
"Three Hundred Texts." Tang Ning spoke coldly.
The coachman was stunned and asked subconsciously: "What?"
Tang Ning said again: "A single piece of three hundred coins, you have to buy it after reading it."
The coachman smiled angry and rolled up his sleeves with gritted teeth, "Believe it or not..."
Before he finished speaking, a low and hoarse chuckled suddenly came from the carriage, "Interesting! Three hundred articles are only three hundred articles. I want to see if her Wen Linguo deserves her confidence. If this Wen Linguo is not worth the price, I will give him the official position to me."
When Tang Ning heard this, his expression changed drastically, and a sense of resentment and murderous intent surged in his heart.
Fortunately, it was dark and others couldn't see her expression clearly, and they couldn't even notice her anger.
The coachman jumped out of the carriage with a smirk and helped his son down. When Tang Ning saw the visitor wearing silk and satin, his clothes were still shining with the soft light of silk in the dark night, he knew that this man was either rich or noble. He tightened his mind and opened the straw curtain when the other party approached.
The purpose of the fruits made the young master who was preparing to find fault and the coachman who was watching the show stunned.
The man quickly came to his senses and turned around to urge the driver to "Go and carry the lanterns over."
Some people watching the fun next to him naturally found good things, and stopped them one after another. Some people even wanted to touch them directly, but Tang Ning decisively stopped them, "Who did they finally send them to Luolin County, who would have to break them?"
The other party did not expect that even a dilapidated house would dare to block him like this, and he was so angry that he wanted to take action.
Tang Ning avoided, "Do you buy it or not? Don't get in the way if you don't buy it, I don't owe you anything."
She said this to everyone, and many people around her changed their faces, as if she was thinking about how to teach this ignorant boy a lesson.
Tang Ning knew that there would be troubles when he continued to stay, so he looked at the man, "How is it? One 300 pieces, a total of 160 pieces, you can count."
The man's mouth twitched, and naturally he would not regret it in front of so many people, so he asked the coachman to pay the money with a calm face.
These Wenlin and Fruits are worth 48 taels in total, and the other party directly gave her five ten taels of silver ingots, as if this could demonstrate his wealth.
Tang Ning naturally would not think that the money was too much. After getting fifty taels, seeing that the driver was about to drag the basket to the carriage to the death, he went forward to get the handle. She lifted the basket with one hand and easily got Wen Linguo onto the carriage.
This operation really shocked those who were preparing to find fault.
Just as they were stunned, Tang Ning finished the matter and quickly walked out of the central circle. Someone reacted and shouted, "Still boy, stop me!"
How could Tang Ning listen? He quickly disappeared into the night. Several servants behind him chased after him, but they didn't even see the direction of her disappearance clearly.
It was only halfway through the inn when she returned to the inn. At this time, there were still many guests eating wine in the lobby of the inn. Tang Ning took a look and walked around to the backyard. He called out twice outside. Tang Junsheng, who was guarding the door, immediately came over to open the door for her and helped her put down the basket.
Tang Ning asked: "Dad, brother and the others have heard of what news? Does it explain how to leave on the day?"
Tang Junsheng took her to the donkey cart and gave her a bamboo tube of water. Tang Ning took it and found that it was actually warm water inside. It was a little strange, "Is it hot?"
Tang Junsheng nodded slightly, and his chin flew towards the kitchen, saying, "That boy Dazhuang is still a little capable. He went in and wandered around, and after coming out, he had two more bamboo tubes of hot water, and there was no copper plate. Your elder brother said they went to the other end of the car dealer.
People from the car dealer said that there are many people going to Jiangnan now, including caravans and refugees. As long as they can afford money, they can arrange people in the caravans. Although it is the hardest and most tiring job, they don’t have to worry about getting into trouble and making money.”
When it comes to making money, Tang Junsheng's eyes lit up.
Tang Ning frowned and thought deeply, thinking for a while before looking at Wei Dazhi, "Uncle Wei, what do you think?"
Wei Dazhi lay on the cart and closed his eyes to rest. He slowly opened a crack when he heard this. If it was so good, I naturally tended to follow the caravan, but there was no free lunch in the world. I always felt that the other party had not finished speaking, but only picked up good-sounding tricks on your elder brother and Dazhuang.
Tang Ning nodded, "I think so too. If I were so good with the caravan, there would be a shortage of supply long ago. People from the car dealer would never have the time to talk nonsense to their elder brother and others. I will go and inquire again."
After making up his mind, Tang Ning turned around and went out again.
Tang Junsheng couldn't even shout at someone, and he stomped his feet in anger, "Why do you say this child is the wind and rain? I don't know who he is following this impatient!"
"Just be content! If I have such a daughter, I can wake up in my dreams." Wei Dazhi muttered a few sour words, and gave Tang Junsheng a blank look.
Tang Junsheng was speechless and sat back silently, staring at the door of the backyard.
At this time, Tang Ning had already arrived at the car dealership. Now there are many displaced people. Even if they are penniless, they will think of ways to make money. They don’t have other abilities and still have the strength to go to the car dealership. There are a lot of people waiting in line for work outside the car dealership every day. They can earn more than ten or twenty cents a day of unloading goods. If they save up, they can still save money to return home.
Even at night, there are still many such people sleeping in the corner outside.
Tang Ning looked around and found a man who was not sleeping soundly in a remote corner. He stepped forward and woke up the person, "Hey! I'll ask you something."
The other party opened his eyes lazily, and saw two copper plates slamming into his eyes.
The man immediately became energetic, struggled to sit up, and said excitedly: "What's the matter? I'll tell you what I know."
Tang Ning nodded with satisfaction, looked at the car shop, and whispered, "I want to go to Jiangnan. If I don't have money, I heard that I can follow the caravan, work in the caravan, and make money and seek protection, right?"
The man nodded straight.
Tang Ning's face sank, his tone changed drastically, and he stepped forward and approached, "Since that's the case, why don't you go?"
The other party fell back in fear, shook his head nervously, looked around, and whispered: "There are indeed benefits of following the caravan, but those are the ones that are not in trouble. This businessman is most likely to encounter bandits and thieves. If he really encounters it, it is most likely that people will die.
Those who follow the caravan will be pushed to the forefront by coercion and temptation. Those who survive by chance can make a small fortune. Of course, very few people have such good luck. The ones we hear most about working here are dead people. I still want to live well, but I can't go!"
