The town of Shiqiao near the New Year’s Pass is much more lively than usual. Those who come to the fair can only use one word to describe it.

All the way to the town, I met a lot of villagers. Everyone, whether it is an adult or a child, is full of joyous smiles. A hard year is the easiest and happiest these few days. The taste of the New Year is very strong, and every family is positive. Prepare for the holiday.

After driving the ox cart to the town, Lin Laogen was so intrigued that Lin Tianbao would follow Wu Qingyuan, Amo, and Brother Zhou to go shopping, while he and the Erfang family went to tie the ox cart and buy things for the New Year.

"Angkor, candied haws, candied haws!"

"Brother, firecrackers, there are firecrackers!"

"Brother Zhou, look, little face man!"

Lin Tianbao is also a lively character. He is a child himself. Once he arrived in the town, he never stopped. He kept pointing to the dazzling array of things on the street and yelling excitedly. The child's twittering was very festive.

Brother Zhou and Lin Amo have always spoiled him. They both took out their pocket money to buy things to coax the children. Wu Qingyuan is also generous. After a while, the Kung Fu children took a bunch of them. Eat fun things.

Brother Amo Zhou also took a bunch of candied haws, and kept shouting, "Cousin/Brother Wu, look at it!" After all, they are actually only teenagers, and they have juvenile minds.

After buying some children's toys for Lin Tianbao, Wu Qingyuan took out the dowry list that he wrote last night and was ready to do the dowry for Brother Zhou.

All the dowries in the list were decided after he had learned about the customs of Liushu Village and carefully thought about it. He wrote two pieces of paper densely. Zhou Geer and Amo have been learning to recognize characters recently, but they don’t know much about it. On the list. There was something they didn't know, but they were shocked just by looking at the number.

"Cousin, this, this is too much..."

Brother Zhou was a little frightened by the two densely packed papers. He knew that his cousin was good to him, but a whole two paper dowry would cost a lot of money. It would be almost enough for a normal little brother to marry some potted mattresses. Better homes will give some more money. Cousin's posture is really scary.

"Don't worry, it's something that happens once in a lifetime, and my cousin is in charge..."

Wu Qingyuan is actually a very powerful person, and his decision will basically not change, but after talking to Brother Zhou, he looked at Lin Amo next to him again, his eyes seemed to be asking, what do you think of his daughter-in-law?

The tacit understanding of Amo certainly understood what he meant. While secretly ashamed that Brother Wu was not serious, he blushed and helped him convince Zhou Geer "Axi, just listen to Brother Wu."

The dowry is too much in the husband’s family to have confidence. The sensible little brothers and girls all understand that Zhang Dazhu likes to go to Zhou, but there are so many brothers and sisters in the Zhang family, and there are a lot of wives. Even if you support it, you can't watch it all the time. Only from the aspect of dowry, you can let the mother-in-law know the attitude of the daughter-in-law's family.

Wu Qingyuan’s list seems to be a bit too much. It’s almost more dowry than the village girl’s dowry. It must cost a lot of money. If other girls know that they will do this in the future, they will feel a little uncomfortable. I felt that the ancestor disregarded his favored cousin and relatives, but when he arrived at Amo's place, he no longer existed. He would listen to Wu Qingyuan if he was good or bad, and his idea was simple.

Both Wu Qingyuan and Amo persuaded him like this, but Zhou Ge'er couldn't refute, but moved and nervously followed Wu Qingyuan to buy his own dowry.

When the purchase started, Brother Zhou was really taken aback.

Gold and silver jewelry, ready-to-wear cloths, buckets for children and grandchildren of dragons and phoenix bedding are all standard equipment for the wealthy girls in the town when they get married. two! Because there are more gold and silver ornaments.

Don't say that Brother Zhou was stupid during the whole process, even Lin Amo was shocked. They didn't know how much silver Wu Qingyuan had, but the two brothers had never seen so much silver when they grew up. They had fifty taels of dowry. The family business of a family in Dingcun!

And the last time I went to Lin’s family to propose marriage, he spent no less than this time. Last time it was nearly 20 taels just for a scalper. Thinking of this, the two brothers had a thought in their minds at the same time, his cousin/ The future husband seems to be a little hard at life, he always likes to send money outside.

But no matter what the two little brothers think, Wu Qingyuan is very happy to buy, and he is not merciless when he spends his money.

Everything can be saved, but you must not be stingy in this kind of thing. These things are just the most basic things. The dowry that is really prepared for Brother Zhou is behind...

"Brother Wu, here!"

While shopping on the street, Wu Qingyuan suddenly heard someone calling himself.

Looking back, I saw a few big men in fur coats in the small restaurant opposite were yelling at him with a surprised smile and beckoning, and suddenly his face showed joy, and he took Zhou Geer, Amo and Lin Tianbao and walked quickly. In the past, into the restaurant.

Several big guys greeted them to sit down, and asked Xiao Er to add some dishes and chopsticks.

"Brother Jiang, why are you here? Is the business going well?"

After sitting down, Wu Qingyuan greeted with a smile. These big guys are not others, but the team of boat dealers that he met on the Grand Canal when he was crossing. These people walked outside all the year round in unfixed places in the north and south. Can meet again.

"Smooth and smooth, with the things Brother Wu you taught us, this time our boat is safe, even if we get to the Devil River, there is nothing wrong with you, Brother Wu, how are you now..."

The big guy he called Jiang Ge was also very happy to see him. They often encountered difficulties when they went out for business, especially the journey on the sea and river was a fear. If something happened, the goods were lost and it was a small thing. Cost-effective, some modern navigation techniques Wu Qingyuan taught them are very helpful to them.

Laughing and patting Wu Qingyuan's shoulder, the big man's gaze fell on his left and right brother Zhou and Amo again. Seeing that they were sitting very close to him, he couldn't help but laugh.

"These two are the inner princes? Hahaha, Brother Wu, I haven't seen you for half a year, how lucky you are."

Don’t blame the big guys for guessing at their own discretion. Generally, a little guy will not go shopping with a man alone. Unless he is married or becomes a pro-husband, he will be gossiped. After sitting down, the distance is very close. It is not difficult to see that the relationship should be very close. That's why the big guy makes fun of it like this.

Brother Zhou and Amo are little brothers and they are not so good to talk to the big guy directly. I'm sorry, Lin Tianbao is a child again. Seeing that the big guys were afraid of quietly starting to be good kids, Wu Qingyuan smiled and took the initiative. Explain the introduction.

"Brother Jiang joked and forgot to introduce you. This is Axi, my cousin, he is the relative I am looking for, this is Amo, he is my uncle, this is Tianbao, Amo's younger brother."

After that, I introduced to Amo and others, "Amo Axi, these are the caravans that I came to Shiqiao Town by boat. Brother Jiang and the others are also regarded as life-saving graces to me. If it weren’t for them, I’m afraid I would still pay Can't get to Shiqiao Town..."

"Brother Jiang, brothers."

The two greeted politely.

Lin Tianbao also called out a few uncles obediently. The children were very likable, and the rough guys in the caravan took out the sweets and snacks from them and gave them to him.

After a brief introduction, the man began to chat. Amo was usually lively, but he knew that he didn't interrupt the occasion. He sat quietly with Brother Zhou to eat and listen to them.

Here Wu Qingyuan had a very open chat with the people from the caravan. They didn't know each other for a month on the ship, but they fell in love with each other.

According to Jiang Da and others, they originally planned to go back before the Chinese New Year, but this year the river in Shiqiao Town froze ahead of time, and the boats were unable to navigate. They could only return to their hometown after the ice in the spring next year.

"Hey, I have to spend the New Year outside again this year. My daughter-in-law was pregnant when I left. She said that a good child would go home when she landed. Now it seems that it won't be..."

Jiang Da and others lamented that their hometown is far away. Every time they go out, it’s basically half a year. They stay at home for only one or two months. They gather less with their families and leave more, just to make more money and make the family feel better. .

"Big Brother Jiang relaxes. My sister-in-law always understands you. Then, do you have any plans for the next few months?"

Wu Qingyuan comforted.

"That's it, let's not tell Brother Wu, we can't go back now because the river is frozen, so I discussed with my brothers, and I will go back later and take a trip to the Sith country and change some gems and agate spice... ..."

Jiang Da also no longer concealed it, and said his plan to wait for others.

The purpose of their business is to make money. They try their best to exchange goods from various countries during the business journey to earn the difference in price. Nowadays, the river in Shiqiao Town is frozen and unable to return. It will take several months to wait for the ice to melt. Naturally, I can’t just wait in Shiqiao Town and waste my time.

Therefore, after discussing with the caravan, they decided to go to the Sith Nation for another trip. Anyway, it was already too late. It would be better to drag home for a few more months.

The Sith country is not far from the border of Xia, and the round trip plus the time for intermediate goods transactions can take up to three months. The country is rich in gems and spices. If you are lucky, you will definitely make a lot of money if you bring it back. Maybe next year. They can have a good rest for a year.

It's just... after speaking, Jiang Da suddenly stopped, looked at each other with the rest of the caravan, hesitated, and stared at him as if he wanted to talk but stopped.

"Brother Jiang has something to say."

Wu Qingyuan saw that they should have something to say to him.

The author has something to say: I don’t know if you still remember the author’s copywriting, "I have made sufficient preparations in modern times, purchase materials, exchange for gold bars, and travel with space and abilities..." Brother Wu also has The golden finger of a space material can't be solved yet.
