Chapter 278 Didn’t win

Chapter 278 Didn’t win

Author: 久l久

The onlookers clicked their tongues and looked again and again. Finally, someone bought five wood pills and asked if they wanted to take them back and sew them into a sachet.

Five flowers can cost a hundred cents, but the wood pill has a strong fragrance and should last for a long time.

As a result, people began to buy wood flowers one after another, and soon half of the basket of wood flowers was bought.

As the number of customers increased, some peonies and chrysanthemums were also sold.

There are also people buying melons and melons, often buying ten at a time for no money.

For a time, Yingbao was in a panic.

To prevent someone from taking things away without paying them, Jiang Sanlang stood on a stool and stared at everyone without blinking.

It really happened to him that he saw someone secretly stuffing two large turtles into his wide sleeves and trying to escape.

"Hey! Pay the money and then leave!" Jiang Sanlang jumped on the stool and grabbed the man, saying coldly: "Please put the things away!"

This man saw that Jiang Sanlang was tall and strong, and he knew that he was going to fight the pigs, so he took out the pigs from his sleeves and threw them into the basket.

Seeing more and more people in front of her stall, Yingbao felt a little overwhelmed and even went to her father and said, "Dad, let's move the things to the counter."

With the counter blocking it, it should be much safer.

Jiang Sanlang also felt that setting up a stall outside was not reliable, so he moved everything back to the counter of the shop and placed a few samples on the counter.

As a result, there are fewer people watching, but there are still many people who really want to buy something.

Sure enough, setting up a stall is not suitable for her, Ying Bao sighed.

At noon time, a large basket of grasshoppers and a large basket of cantaloupe were sold out, and there were only a few flowers left.

Ying Bao turned around and looked at the money box, which was already full.

If she didn't know what the situation was like over there with her second cousin, she had to go and take a look.

But before going, she had to get some grass and flowers from the cave to take home when she returned to her hometown in the afternoon.

"Dad, he went to see his second cousin." Yingbao said to Jiang Sanlang.

Jiang Sanlang nodded: "Take it with you to Dahei when you go out." The second nephew was setting up a stall on another street. You can see it around the corner from there.

"Okay." Yingbao happily ran into the backyard from the back door of the shop, went to the house and put out a basket of grapes, two baskets of grapes, a basket of cantaloupes, and a large basket of flowers.

There is nothing missing at home now, the only thing lacking is those things.

After that, I took him with me and happily went to find my second cousin.

Ying Bao rushed to the market and saw a rogue blackmailing Jiang Quan.

"Damn it! I dare to lie to me! Please pay me five taels of silver, please give him the silver bracelet!"

It turned out that the scoundrel was playing archery with ten coins and shot a small porcelain doll. This made him very angry, so he grabbed Jiang Quan and wanted to win the first prize of a silver bracelet.

Of course Jiang Quan was not happy. If he had spent four taels of silver to buy the carved silver bracelet, it would be used to attract customers. He could give it to anyone casually. That scoundrel looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

However, Ying Bao remembered that the man was another brother of Zhang Jia's concubine.

I don’t know whether he is a real brother or not, but this person once participated in the beating of his aunt Jiang Yunniang and often went in and out of Goulan House with Zhang Jia.

Soon, Jiang Quan got into an argument with this man and was unexpectedly punched in the eye.

Jiang Quan was furious and immediately started a fight with the man.

Although the gangster was not tall, he was very fierce in the fight. Jiang Quan did not deny his wrong leg at all, and he quickly pinned him to the ground and beat him violently.

When Yingbao saw this, he loosened the leash on his leg and patted Xiao Heiyidong.

Xiao Hei swooped out and bit the person's butt.

"Ouch..." The scoundrel screamed in pain, turned his head to see if he was right, and saw the big dog rushing towards him. He was so frightened that he rolled and ran away.

Jiang Quan wiped his face and felt his right eye stinging.

Ying Bao pricked his eyelids, and when he saw that he had no injuries, she handed him a pill and said, "It's getting late, so pack up and go home."

They really wanted to travel a hundred miles to go back for the New Year's Eve dinner.

Jiang Quan was very frustrated.

Because his Guanpu business was not that good. Although people came to play, he didn't make much money.

I originally wanted to prove that he could make a lot of money alone, but he didn't expect that the reality was not what he imagined.

Pack up your things, put them in the carriage, and hitch the horse back to the shop.

At that time, my aunt Jiang Yunniang also packed her things and stood at the door of the shop with her children to shut up with Jiang Sanlang.

"Sanlang, can we take our carriage with them?" She was deeply disappointed with her husband and was not going to celebrate the New Year with him and her concubine. She wanted to take her children and her third brother back to her parents' home.

Jiang Sanlang nodded: "It should be okay. Have I packed up? We will set off later."

The horses in the shop are tall and strong. They eat the feed prepared by my daughter and are very strong. They often pull loaded goods to and from the county town and the countryside without any problems.

Now it's just a few extra people here, so there shouldn't be any problem.

"Dad! We're back." Ying Bao came jumping from the carriage, and Xiao Hei followed suit.

Jiang Sanlang saw that his daughter and nephew had returned from closing the stall, so he quickly closed the shop at the door.

After everything was done, I suddenly saw that my second nephew had black circles under his eyes, and he couldn't help but frown: "Did you get into a fight?"

"Yeah." Jiang Quan didn't want to say more, he hesitated and ran to help his little cousin move.

Zhang Yuying also went to help, and together with Jiang Quan, moved all the things Qiu brought back to the carriage.

Hong Xiao looked at the baskets of fruits in surprise and couldn't help but salivate.

Yingbao handed her a big pingxiao, and then gave it to the man named Zhang Xiaolang.

Jiang Yunniang brought Pingji over, pulled off the head and made a deep cut on the copper hairpin, broke it into two halves, and gave half to her daughter Hongxiao and half to Zhang Xiaolang.

Several people crowded into the carriage, and Jiang Sanlang went to check the doors and windows, then locked the house, put a door charm on the door, locked the door, and then walked on the carriage shaft to drive away.

Jiang Quan was silent for a while, but when the carriage drove out of the county town, he immediately became energetic and began to talk non-stop about the business with his little cousin and aunt.

"Although you can't make a lot of money from this business in a short period of time, you can make a huge profit. Hehe! If you keep doing it, it will definitely be very profitable." Guan Pu is also equivalent to gambling, and the one who makes the profit is always the banker, so Jiang Quan said this.

Jiang Yunniang said: "Don't do it. There is a family in our alley that secretly does Guanpu business. It turns out that someone reported him and the government came to arrest all the men in his family and they haven't released them until tomorrow."

The imperial court explicitly prohibits gambling. Once discovered, you will be fined or imprisoned with no chance of rest.

Even then, there are still people who secretly open casinos in secret and make huge profits.

Yingbao gave her second cousin a red look: "Can't I make money by doing business with my first cousin?"

Jiang Quan scratched his head and did not dare to say anything more.

It is indeed very profitable for him and his elder brother to do business together. In the next year alone, he made more than a thousand taels.

The little cousin earned the most. When the accounts were settled a few days ago, she received more than 4,000 taels by herself. Excluding the several hundred taels spent on building a house and purchasing furniture, the little cousin Ye Yi took away more than 3,000 taels in cash.

.

Next is the eldest brother.

Jiang Cheng still planted a lot of golden ears next year, so he earned much more than his second brother, earning more than two thousand taels of silver.

Jiang Quan was not only jealous of his eldest brother and younger cousin, but he had become a millionaire all of a sudden. His mind was a little wandering, and he felt that no matter what he did, he would never succeed.

If not, I just want to test my abilities, and if not, I can make a lot of money.

It turned out that not only did I not make any money, I also got into a lot of fights with others.

The key is no, it’s hard to win.
