Chapter 38 Chapter 38, Trouble

   As soon as Li Yu arrived at the door of the house, he saw Li Qing walking out, "Aqing, where are you going?"

  Li Qing saw the blood on Li Yu's body, so he rushed over to check, "Sister, what's wrong with you? You're bleeding!"

   Li Yu smiled and comforted Li Qing, "It's okay, it's not my sister's, it's that kid named Jixiang."

"Auspicious? Auspicious is Mr.'s book boy! How did you meet them," Li Qing followed Li Yu, "Today, Mr. and two of them said that they were going up the mountain to see the autumn scenery! Sister, they met the wild beast? Right? Are you okay?"

  Li Yu put down his back, "Well! I met a hungry wolf. Fortunately, I helped drive it away, but Jixiang was injured a little bit. You can rest assured."

  Li Qing was relieved, "That's good, fortunately they met you," Li Qing looked at the blood on Li Yu's body, "Sister, go wash first."

   Mr. Qian came out with hot water and said to Li Yu, "Xiaoyu, you go to wash first and come back to eat."

Li Yu came out of the shower, and Qian gave the pickle money that Xiao An got back from shopkeeper Liu and the booklet to Li Yu, "Xiaoyu, this is what Xiao An got back from shopkeeper Liu, send it as you said. I handed over a hundred tins to Shopkeeper Liu, and this is what Shopkeeper Liu wrote down for you to see."

  Li Yu took the booklet and read it correctly, and smiled, "Yes, I ran for nothing today, and I didn't hunt anything, and the chestnuts I picked up fell."

   Mr. Qian set the meal and said with a smile, "It's fine if you're all right, I've steamed the buns, you eat one first, and you'll be tired after a day's running."

   Li Qing and Xiao An closed the chicken and washed their hands. Everyone started to eat. Mrs. Qian waited for everyone to pack up after eating before going home with Xiao An to rest.

  Li Yu and Li Qing were sitting in the yard burning wormwood to drive away the mosquitoes. The siblings talked and went to rest.

  Li Yu went back to his room and counted. There were seventeen gold leaves, more than five taels of broken silver, and two hundred taels of Huitong Qianzhuang printed on the silver note.

Li Yu put the gold leaf and the silver note into the space, fell on the bed and thought: I thought Ah Qing's husband was an old man, but I didn't expect it to be a trouble, what is the origin of this trouble? Qing finds another academy, ... Li Yu slowly fell asleep after thinking about it.

Zhou Jia, Zhou Jia and Jixiang's injuries have been bandaged, Jixiang was lying on the bed with a pale face and unconscious, Zhou Jia sat on the chair in front of the bed and watched Jixiang give him a pulse. After a while, Zhou Jia breathed a sigh of relief, yes Ruyi said: "It's okay, the pulse has stabilized, remember to give the medicine again at night."

"Yes," Ruyi replied, and looked at Zhou Jia angrily, "Master, that temptress made you not even able to pass the township exam, and even used your wife's funeral to force you to agree to withdraw from the competition as the master of the family. We all avoided it. Here, the old witch has to kill them all."

Zhou Jia said lightly: "The Zhou family has already been a strong foreigner. She just sent someone because she was afraid that I would take the exam again next year, and that her son's position would not be guaranteed. Also, in my opinion, this is her last kill. Come on, if I didn't meet the Li family girl today, I'm afraid Jixiang and I would have died in the mountains, it seems that we should not die, but it's a pity for those medicines that we finally found."

  Ruyi went up to support Zhou Jia, "Master, that Miss Li is really a strange person. I said I would like to thank her, and she said she has already received the gift."

   Zhou Jia smiled, "Jixiang woke up and said that she took all the money from the killer's body, gave him the bronze medal and the jar, and threw the killer along with the sword and threw it down the mountain stream."

  Ruyi frowned and said: "It's strange to say, according to the villagers, that Miss Li used to be as timid as a mouse to the Zhang family's obedience, how could she suddenly become so tough and so skilled?"

   Zhou Jia pondered for a moment, "It may be that she had some adventure, and thanks to her rescue today, we will visit her again when I and Jixiang are better."

   "Understood, you have a good rest, I will look at the auspiciousness."

   Zhou Jia waved his hand and stepped back Ruyi. Zhou Jia was lying on the bed thinking about Li Yu's expression when he rolled his eyes and despised him, and couldn't help laughing.

   The next day, Li Yu took the pickle to the Shunfeng Inn. After handing the pickle to the shopkeeper Liu, he took the money and drove the ox cart back.

   Not long after walking, he met Manager Wei. Wei Wencheng looked at Li Yu and smiled, "Miss Li, how's business going?"

   Li Yu smiled, "My small business is just to make ends meet, does Mr. Wei have anything to do with me?"

   "I'm looking for Miss Li to buy pickles, and I want to talk to you about business." Wei Wencheng smiled.

  Li Yu said cheerfully: "Okay! Then please come to my house to talk, okay?"

   "Okay." Wei Wencheng turned around and got into the carriage and followed Li Yu's carriage to Li's house. Li Yu saw that the courtyard door was closed and thought that Qian's family might have gone to the wasteland.

  Li Yu opened the courtyard door and invited Wei Wencheng and the two who came with him into the house.

  Li Yu brought the small wooden table under the eaves porch, poured three bowls of warm water in the pot, and politely said to Wei Wencheng and the two accompanying him, "Mr. Wei's house is simple, please sit down and drink water."

   "Where, where." Wei Wencheng said politely.

  A young man accompanied by Wei Wencheng glanced at Li Yu and sat down. Wei Wencheng sat down after he sat down.

  The man pointed at the sauce jars placed against the courtyard wall, and said with a smile, "Is the girl's pickles in these sauce jars?"

  Li Yu shook his head, "No, those are doubanjiang, which is also used for cooking."

The    man nodded and stopped talking. Wei Wencheng looked at Li Yu and asked, "Miss Li, do you have more pickles in your house? I want to buy more this time."

   "Too much or not much, it's just Mr. Wei, if you buy too much, the pickles will spoil over time."

  Wei Wencheng smiled, "Don't be afraid, you won't be able to eat when there are too many people."

Li Yu calculated in his heart that there are only 30 jars of meat sauce for a 50-pound jar, and 50 jars of cowpea and kohlrabi for a 100-pound jar. If you can divide it into cans, you can at least hold more than 8,000 cans. , If he can buy it all at once, he will save his effort.

   "Mr. Wei, there are still seven or eight thousand cans of pickles left at home! Do you want them all?"

   "Yes, it's going to snow soon, these pickles are just right, Miss Li," Wei Wencheng looked at Li Yu, hesitating how to tell Li Yu.

Li Yu looked at him in no hurry, Wei Wencheng hesitated for a moment, and decided to tell the truth, "Miss Li will tell you the truth, we have also tried to make your pickles a few times, and the taste is always a little worse. The most important thing is, The pickles don't last as long as yours, we want to buy your recipe, are you willing to sell it?"

   Li Yu knew after hearing that they might not put white wine and sugar, but after a long time, people can figure it out, and if the price is right, it is not a bad idea to sell it.

   "Mr. Wei, how much money are you going to give me to buy the money?"

  Wei Wencheng raised a finger, "One thousand taels, after you sell it to us, you can also sell Qingshui Town, but you must promise not to sell it to anyone else."

"Since I promised to sell it to you, I wouldn't do that kind of unbelievable thing. One thousand five hundred taels, I will promise to sell it to you. Since you have tried it, you should know the profit. You can earn a few thousand five hundred taels a year." Li Yu said lightly.

  Wei Wencheng glanced at the man accompanying him, and after seeing the man nodding, he replied with a smile, "Okay, just one thousand five hundred taels, Miss Li, do you want a bank note or cash?"

  Li Yu thought to himself: I still have to go to Qingshan City to exchange the silver bill. It is better to have money. Anyway, if there is space to store it, I am not afraid of it.

   "Cash, right? It looks good."

   "Okay, Miss Li is really a cheerful person," Wei Wencheng turned to the guard standing by and said, "Ah Sheng, go get the money."

   "Yes, the shopkeeper." Ah Sheng took two wooden boxes, one large and one small, from the carriage and placed them at Mr. Wei's feet, "Sir, silver."
