We hurried on our way before dawn, and when we got to the official road outside, we saw a bright spot.
Along the way, we passed a town and entered Gongcheng. The sun had just risen.
Ah Ling, whose stomach was growling with hunger, said hurriedly: "Sister Ah Qiu, let's have breakfast first, and then we can go on our way!"
The group stopped at a wonton stall at the gate of the city and each ate a large bowl of wontons in clear soup.
After eating, he continued out of the city gate without much rest.
After traveling for thirty miles, we arrived at Liujiaji, where we had stopped before.
Originally, if Song Qiu had not found a better location in Crescent Bay, he would have chosen Liujiaji.
But now that the Crescent Inn has opened, although Liujiaji is good, she still doesn't have the manpower.
I have no choice but to leave it here for the time being.
After driving all the way, we turned down to a tea shop to drink tea and rest.
Although a month had passed, the waiter obviously still remembered them. When he saw them, he greeted them with a smile, "Oh, it's you? Are you going back after visiting relatives?"
"Yes!" Du Chuanfu answered and asked the waiter to help feed the horses and mules some water and fodder.
Song Qiu drank the warm water and looked at the official road just outside, sighing in his heart, this place is really suitable.
It's a pity that we don't have the manpower.
If she wants to open inns everywhere, manpower is a big problem. This time, a few will be added, and a few will be added at a time. The training speed is too slow.
Song Qiu thought that this time he would simply recruit more people at once, gather them together, and train them together. When the right positions are found, they can be deployed immediately.
It still has to be this way.
On the way back, you can check out the dental shops in Yunshan County and Shunyang County, and buy the ones that are suitable.
It was still early and the heat was not too hot. After drinking tea and resting the horses, the group continued walking forward.
When we arrived at Yangping Town, the sun was getting brighter, so we stopped to look for a restaurant to eat.
Yangping Town is close to the large county of Yunshan, and the town is very lively. There are several stalls selling ice drinks.
There was a constant stream of hawking.
"Ice watermelon! Come on, buy some ice watermelon!"
“Iced mung bean soup! And refreshing and antipyretic sour plum soup!”
"Where are the sweet bowls! They are selling sweet bowls!"
This shouting made people salivate.
There was a stall in front of the restaurant. Du Chuanfu and his waiter went to park the car. Lihua took Song Qiu and Aling and went to the stall, "Let's take a look! What kind of sweet bowls are there? We don't have them in our town! I
dinner!"
Aling argued: "I'll please, I'll please!" When she went out this time, she also asked for some monthly money that she had saved to take with her.
Song Qiu joked when he heard this, "Why is no one competing to pay for the meal?"
Lihua shook her arm and smiled flatteringly, "Hey, that meal is enough to buy ice drinks many times. I'd better buy ice drinks."
"Well, I'll also invite you to breakfast next time!"
While talking, I arrived at the stall and hurriedly asked the stall owner: "Uncle, what kind of sweet bowls are you selling?"
Song Qiu looked at Aling again, and Aling also smiled and hurried forward.
"What sweet bowl? How much does one bowl cost? Give us four bowls!"
Song Qiu smiled and shook his head, watching from behind to see who of the two of them would win the paid job.
It happened that the previous customer bought a bowl of sweet bowl. The stall owner pointed to the actual object and introduced: "This is the sweet bowl. It has been chilled. It is very comfortable to eat!"
"You want four bowls, right? Just a moment, it'll be ready soon!"
The sweet bowl turned out to be some diced fruits, including peaches, watermelon, bayberry and fresh lotus seeds, mixed with a large spoonful of sugar, and the full bowl looked so tempting.
They were all cut and chilled. The stall owner took the bowls and scooped them out one by one, filled a bowl, poured a spoonful of sugar on it, and handed it to Lihua.
After the four bowls were ready, the stall owner smiled and said: "Eight cents per bowl, four bowls totaling thirty-two cents!"
After all, wait to receive the money.
Aling, who was still scrambling to pay just now, stepped back, "Um... Lihua, I just brought two hundred dollars and went out. I've paid for tea several times before, so this time you should go first!"
I thought Bingyinzi was worth two cents, but I didn't expect that this sweet bowl was worth eight cents.
Lihua was also stunned and couldn't help but stick out her tongue at Song Qiu, "It's almost like inviting you to dinner!"
Song Qiu said with a smile: "Then I'll pay?"
"You already said I'd like it, why are you trying to rob me!" Lihua patted her money bag hurriedly and grandly, "I have enough to pay!"
This time when she went out, her father gave her five taels of silver to support her!
Invite Bingyinzi, she can do it every day, all the way back!
After that, he untied the money bag and took out some scattered copper coins to pay.
There were too many copper plates and they were hung with weights, so they were scattered. The rest were broken silver coins.
Lihua was still used to paying copper coins, so after accepting this, she turned back with the sweet bowl and followed Song Qiu to the restaurant and said to her: "The coins are gone, Ah Qiu, please give me some coins later."
"Okay, I'll pay for the meal later, and I'll give it to you in exchange for the extra money."
After entering the restaurant and ordering food, a few people began to eat the sweet bowls.
Du Chuanfu didn't expect that he also had a bowl of sweet fruits. As a grown man, he really didn't like eating them, but they were all bought for him. He couldn't accept this kindness.
Immediately I thanked the pear blossoms and sat down to eat.
There is a lot to talk about in this bowl, but when I am thirsty, I take a big spoonful of it, it is ice cold, and it tastes quick.
I finished eating before the food was served.
"I'll send the bowls out." Lihua collected the bowls and stacked them together to send to the stall owner.
When I turned around to enter the restaurant, I bumped into someone hard.
"Ouch!"
Lihua was caught off guard, staggered by the knock, and sat down on the ground.
She raised her eyes to look at the skinny boy who bumped into her, "How do you walk? There are people coming and going in front of this restaurant. Why are you walking so fast? It hurt me to death!"
The thin boy shrank his neck and said timidly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
"Forget it, be careful next time!"
This made it hard for Lihua to say anything. She was not an unforgiving person, so she got up and went to the restaurant.
Song Qiu and the others heard the commotion inside and were about to come out to take a look. When they saw Lihua coming in, they quickly asked her what was wrong.
Lihua waved her hand, "It's okay, I just got hit by someone."
"Did you hit it? Does it hurt anywhere? If you had known, I would have sent the bowl out." Aling said.
"it's okay no problem!"
While we were talking, the food was served, so I hurriedly ate without mentioning it.
The consumption of this small restaurant is average, not a large restaurant. Song Qiu ordered four dishes and one soup, ate rice, and did not drink. The bill was 60 yuan.
Song Qiu gave the shopkeeper an ingot of silver cents. The shopkeeper called him a coin and found someone with 160 cents, so he asked Song Qiu to give him 100 cents, which was exactly the same amount.
Song Qiu took it and handed it to Lihua, "Change it."
Lihua nodded, then went to touch the money bag, preparing to take out a piece of broken silver, just in time to ask the shopkeeper to help weigh it with a spoon.
But when I touched my arms, I found nothing.
"Where is my money bag? Why is the money bag missing?" Lihua's face turned pale and she touched all over her body, fearing that she might have missed something.
But I searched everywhere and couldn't find the money bag.
