There is An Apocalyptic Man In the Village

Although I don't know what the situation is, from the words of several aunts, Wu Qingyuan confirmed a problem, that is, there is a difference between the passage of time in modern times and ancient times here, so the matter of helping old man Zhou find his brother has to be discussed in the long run.

After listening to the arguments of several aunts, we walked for about two hours and finally arrived in town.

"Brother Wu, I won't go shopping with you. Our town is so big. Take your time. Don't worry. I'll wait for you at the medicine shop after I catch the medicine. Come to me after you visit. Let's take Uncle Li's ox cart back later“

Lin amo carefully explained to him before leaving. He hurriedly went to the medicine shop to do business. Wu Qingyuan smiled with his flexible back before turning around and strolling slowly in the street.

Although I learned a lot about the world from old man Zhou at the beginning, it is only some basic precautions. Old man Zhou can't tell him everything. Since he is going to settle down near Shiqiao Town, he must have a good understanding of the environment, customs, price taboos and so on.

As Lin amo said, the whole Shiqiao Town is not big. In less than an hour, Wu Qingyuan finished visiting the whole town.

However, although the town is small, it is very prosperous, even if it is not a market day. Because the traffic extends in all directions, Shiqiao Town is the way for most businessmen from south to north, so the streets of the town are crowded and lively.

After careful observation, Wu Qingyuan determined that the Xia state was really a good place to live. Although it was a backward ancient time, it was still very different from the ancient time he imagined.

In addition to a little brother, because it is an overhead Dynasty, the politics and people's life here are very different from the ancient world he is familiar with. The rule of law and local customs of the court are very chaotic.

The whole society has not only the prosperity and opening-up of the Tang Dynasty, but also the backwardness and preciseness of thousands of years in the Qin and Han Dynasties. Even the emergence of various crops is very chaotic. Corn, potatoes, tomatoes and other late things already exist here, but they are relatively rare and not common.

But no matter how chaotic it is, the relationship between countries here is still harmonious for the time being. There is no war and the living standard is low, but people will not starve to death. For him, the world is definitely a paradise!

After learning about it, Wu Qingyuan became more determined about living in Shiqiao Town. Don't worry about the situation and customs. The last thing left is the price. If you want to live here, you must understand it, otherwise you won't know if you buy things.

Therefore, after wandering around the town, he found a grocery store at will, went in and slowly selected things under the pretext of shopping and asked about prices.

At the moment, the business of the grocery store is very good. The boss doesn't have time to tell him more. Seeing that he asked about some things and didn't seem to mean to buy, he ignored his attitude, regardless of whether he went to greet other guests.

Wu Qingyuan didn't hold the boss to continue to ask. Instead, he looked slowly in the grocery store, asking the price from the people around him and extracting the information he wanted from the bargaining transaction.

But after a while, he knew about the commodity prices in the grocery store. He was about to leave, but suddenly a pair of young men and women came in at the door.

Because the shop was small and full of goods, the space for action was very crowded. The young men and women walked side by side. The boss greeted them and surrounded them. The three people almost blocked the whole channel. Wu Qingyuan couldn't go out at all. He had to wait.

Anyway, he was not in a hurry. He simply stood inside and was ready to go out after the boss greeted them.

The man and woman don't know what the relationship is. They don't look like husband and wife, because the woman's hair is obviously combed in a girl's bun, but they talk and behave very close. They flirt and flirt very vaguely, but they are a bit like lovers.

Although the folk custom of Xia is open, two unmarried men and women will not be close in broad daylight, but they have to be gossip. They are very brave.

At the moment, the woman seemed to be angry. The man was very flattering. He pointed to the pastries in a ceramic jar opposite to buy some delicious snacks to please the girl.

Wu Qingyuan was not interested in listening to other people's little lovers make trouble, but the next two people's words suddenly attracted his attention.

"Baozhu, don't be angry. I really don't like Lin amo. How can I like him when he grows up like that? But he is a little brother and can work very well. If he can marry home, you can grow up and grow up in the future. With him, you don't have to do any work at home. It's like less milk“

"I don't believe it! Brother Lin is not a fool. I heard that the Lin family is not poor in your village. They are willing to marry you as a child? I haven't seen a man in that village marry two daughters-in-law. Besides, your family is still so poor. It's not the master's life to think of the master's blessing. I want to marry you together, girl and brother. Hum“

The girl in the floral dress was obviously not easy to coax. She didn't believe it at all, and her words were impolite.

The man's expression was not very good-looking. He felt that he couldn't keep face on his face, but he endured it and continued to please the girl, courteous and explain.

"Baozhu, believe me, what I said is true. Brother Lin is ugly and makes people talk in public all day. After the new year, he will be 19. No one has ever mentioned marriage to him. If I am willing to marry him, he may run to the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha. Don't be angry, pearl. I want to marry him. I want you to be more comfortable in the future and eat a piece The cake calms down. This crispy cake is the most famous snack shop in the county, Suxiang garden“

"You have a good abacus..."

After hearing this, the girl seemed more comfortable, turned her eyes, said angrily, stopped talking about this topic, began to choose things in the shop, and finally bought a lot of snacks, honey and women's things, which cost half a copper coin.

Although this semi Guan copper coin doesn't sound like much, according to the income level of the town, semi Guan copper coin is the salary of most people in a month, and the man doesn't look like a rich man dressed in coarse clothes and mandarin jacket. He spent so much money at once, not to mention the pain.

However, just like what he had just said to the girl, he still endured and paid the silver to appease the girl. They left with something.

As soon as they left, Wu Qingyuan asked the boss to wrap some cakes while laughing.

"You said that? Zhao Haisheng, you don't know the small running Hall of Qianji grain store? We buy grain in our town with money. Haven't you seen him? You came from other places?"

Just now he bought something for half a year, and now he made a few cakes. The grocer was in a good mood. Finally, he changed his previous neglect and chatted with him.

Shiqiao Town is so big that everyone who lives in the town knows him. When he asks, he knows that he came from other places.

"Yes, I just moved here. I don't know..."

Wu Qingyuan nodded undeniably, smiled, took the wrapped cake and left.

........

After leaving the grocery store, he went to several other grocery stores to stroll around. After several comparisons, Wu Qingyuan had a number in his heart. Then he started to enter the bank and took some gold bars out of the space to exchange money.

Fortunately, he had foresight. At the beginning, he changed the rest of the useless money into gold. The amount was not large, but according to the living standard here, the gold was enough for him to live comfortably all his life.

But it's OK to take a few out for emergency. He doesn't intend to live on these gold all his life. When he settles down, he still has to find something to do. He can't sit back and eat nothing.

Each gold he brought from modern times is the weight of standard gold bars. According to the unit of measurement here, there are about 3 liang of gold bars.

According to the price exchange just heard, one or two gold = 10 liang of silver. However, due to industrial reasons, the purity of modern gold is much higher than that in ancient times. Therefore, after talking to the bank manager, a gold bar can be exchanged for 35 liang of silver.

Finally, Wu Qingyuan exchanged three gold bars and came out with a total of 105 Liang.

After that, he went back to the grocery store to buy some personal daily necessities, and then went to the agreed drugstore to meet Lin amo. There were many things in his space, but it was not convenient to take out many things in Lin's house.

He also has a good memory, and the town is not big, so he basically knows the roads in the town, and there is only one medicine shop in Shiqiao Town, so he soon found a place and saw Lin amo who had been waiting at the door of the medicine shop for a long time.

Just as he was about to walk quickly, he suddenly saw that a strange man had walked one step ahead of him to say hello to Lin amo.

He was tall and thin, in a thick mandarin jacket, with dark skin and ordinary appearance. His eyes were smooth and smooth. It was Zhao Haisheng, the man and woman he had just met in the grocery store.
