I haven't made a system for many years.

As soon as you enter the gate of Qinghe Town, you can see three roads, which can basically be divided into three areas.

Going to the left, there is a Queen Mother Temple. Once you arrive at the temple fair, it will be very lively.So, that street is basically a bazaar.

On the day of the market, there will be a lot of people there, and everything is sold.

Going to the middle, there is a restaurant just after entering the door, and further inside is the golden building pawn shop and the like.Further inside is the mansion of a rich family, and the innermost is the largest academy in the town, Qingfeng Academy.

Going to the right, this is where Meng Qing and Zheng Xuan came. This street is basically dotted with various small shops.In this street, Ben can buy everything.And it is relatively civilian, so this street is the most lively.

Meng Qing and Zheng Xuan first came to a clothing store.

As soon as they entered the door, the proprietress glanced at them and said with a smile, "You two little brothers, what do you want to buy?"

Meng Qing glanced at it, and there were all kinds of cloth hanging on the walls of the shop, colorful.Meng Qing couldn't help shaking her head as she thought about the clothes in her closet.Even if he wasn't afraid of the cold, he had to change his clothes, the original owner's clothes were too rough and ugly.

"Miss Boss, do you have ready-made clothes?"

"Yo, that's really not the case. Ordinary people either come here to order, or buy materials and make them at home."

Meng Qing frowned, this trip to the town is also very troublesome, besides, Ah Xuan only has one unlined garment now?He can't always wear his father's clothes!

"Hey, don't you know how to make clothes? If you were asked to make a jacket, how long would it take you to finish?"

Zheng Xuan thought for a while and said, "For a long time!"

Half a day, too long, he has to make a lot of clothes!Besides, he can't let the host spend all his time making clothes!They are people who are going to do big things.

With a decision in mind, Meng Qing said, "How much does it cost to make a padded coat?"

Seeing the two half-grown children coming to buy clothes, the female shopkeeper thought it was quite interesting, and said with a smile, "Hey, it takes nine taels of cotton to make a cotton coat. The fabric for the lining and the fabric for the outside are different. Thirteen feet. There are also needles and threads, and the key is the wages, so a cotton coat costs 530 five cents."

Meng Qing nodded, "What color clothes do you like?"

Zheng Xuan looked at the various colors of cloth, pointed to one of them and said, "I like blue."

Meng Qing nodded, "Okay, shopkeeper, then make two cyan padded jackets for my brother, and one royal blue and one dark purple padded jacket for me"!

When the shopkeeper heard this, his face burst into a smile, and he hurriedly asked the waiter to measure the size for them.

"What style do you two like, the ones hanging on it are all fashionable at the moment."

Meng Qing pointed to a relatively simple one, then turned to look at Zheng Xuan, Zheng Xuan said embarrassedly, "Same as you"!

"Okay, I'll write it down for you. You are also children. A cotton coat is 520 Wen for you. This is [-] Wen in total. Pay half of the deposit first, and the rest will be paid next time."

Meng Qing nodded, "OK".

"The two little brothers, what else do you want to buy?"

Meng Qing glanced at the entire shop, and then said, "I want one bolt of black silk and two bolts of white silk.

After hearing what he said, both the shopkeeper and Zheng Xuan were taken aback.

The shopkeeper hesitated and said, "Little brother, the price of silk is very expensive. If you have some money, you should save it to live well, and you shouldn't spend it like this."

Meng Qing smiled, the shopkeeper is really nice, "Thank you for the kindness of the shopkeeper, but there are only two brothers in the family, we have money, of course we have to live more comfortably."

After hearing this, the female shopkeeper stopped persuading her, and said with a smile, "The black silk and the white silk are 21 Wen per foot, and you count [-] Wen per foot, and a horse is [-] Wen. This is a total of [-] Wen."

"Is there anything else to buy?"

Zheng Xuan thought for a while, "I still have to buy some needles and threads."

"Then bring five bundles of black cotton thread and five bundles of white cotton thread, and one bundle of each of the remaining cotton threads of each color. Also bring a set of sewing tools."

"Okay, black and white cotton thread is ten cents each, and the rest will be given to you for free."

Meng Qing nodded, a total of three or two, 460 words, not many.Just as I was about to pay, I suddenly saw the worn shoes under my feet, and wondered if I had to make these shoes too.

"Shopkeeper, I wonder if shoes can be made here?"

"This", the shopkeeper was a little hesitant. Generally, the shoes are made by the women of the family, and few people come out to make them.

"Yes, there are, but little brother, let your mother make these shoes yourself, and it won't waste much time."

Meng Qing smiled bitterly, "There are only two brothers in my family."

The shopkeeper's complexion changed, and he secretly looked at the two brothers, one was tall and strong but unkempt, and the other was thin and weak, he really looked like a poor child.

"My son is about the same age as you, how about this? Auntie will make it for you for free, and you only need to waste some fabric money. A pair is twenty yuan. How many pairs do you want?"

Meng Qing thought for a while, "Thank you, auntie, we two brothers each have four pairs, two pairs of cotton shoes, two pairs of single shoes, and the style is simple."

"Cotton shoes may be more expensive, a pair costs forty yuan." Seeing Meng Qing nodding, the shopkeeper quickly asked the waiter to measure the feet.

Meng Qing saw that the shopkeeper was a nice person, so he wanted to give some more business, "I don't know if the shopkeeper can make sheets or bedding?"

"Of course this is fine. I don't know what kind of fabric color and pattern the little brother wants?"

"Navy blue is the only color, and cotton is the fabric, and the pattern should be simple."

"A set of [-] Wen, how many sets do you want?"

"Only four sets!"

Zheng Xuan tugged at his hand, "Brother Meng Qing, this is too much money, why don't we buy fabrics and go back, I'll do it myself, I can do it all."

Meng Qing shook his head, "You can help me make two pajamas, it's a waste of time to do the rest, you have other things to do"!

Zheng Xuan thought that Meng Qing had other tasks for him, so he didn't worry about it. He just had an intuitive understanding of the speed at which he spent money.

"Okay, that's all."

The shopkeeper fiddled with the abacus with a smile on his face, this is really a big deal!

"The bed sheet and quilt cover also pay half of the deposit first, so the total is five taels of 180 Wen."

Meng Qing nodded, took out six taels of silver from the bag and handed it to the female shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper said, "Little brother, I'm a bit of an orderer. There are only three workers in my shop, and it will take ten days to complete it!"

"Ten days? No, it's too long, five days!"

"This, the time is too short!"

Zheng Xuan interrupted, "Shopkeeper, we two brothers know that time is short, but these are urgently needed. Look at our two brothers' clothes. If we don't hurry up, we may not be able to survive these few days!"

Seeing their pity, the shopkeeper gritted his teeth and said, "Five days is five days. I'll give up my old face and hire two more workers, but you have to pay for it yourself!"

"How much? Fifty coins!"

Meng Qing glanced at Zheng Xuan, Zheng Xuan nodded and said yes, Meng Qing couldn't help smiling seeing his serious look.

Smiling, Zheng Xuan was baffled. After Meng Qing took the 130 Wen change, he went out with his things in his arms.Zheng Xuan hurriedly followed.The female shopkeeper looked at the backs of the two, sighed that the relationship between the two brothers was good, and then hurriedly ordered the waiter to do something.

Meng Qing was holding a few bolts of cloth, although they were not heavy, they were still very troublesome. After all, they would have to go shopping later, and there would be more and more things.This strengthened his determination to buy a horse.

"Come on, let's go inside and have a look. We'll buy a horse first."

Zheng Xuan followed behind him and stared straight at him. The speed at which this man spends money is really unmatched. Moreover, he only picks out expensive ones. If things go on like this, no matter how much money he earns, it won't be enough to spend!

"Brother Meng Qing, a good horse costs more than 60 taels of silver. I think it is more cost-effective to buy a cow. In addition to transporting things and pulling people, it can also plow the fields."

"But we don't need to plow the land. Besides, riding a horse is so majestic. By the way, can you ride a horse?"

"I won't"! He also thinks riding a horse is awe-inspiring.

"Then I will teach you."

In Zheng Xuan's mind, he had a majestic appearance sitting on a big horse, and he couldn't help but flash the light of Bulling Bulling in his eyes.

"Okay, when the time comes, we will compete."At this time, he didn't think horses were expensive anymore.

Meng Qing followed his memory to the largest racecourse in the town.

The reason why Qinghe Town is more prosperous than ordinary small towns is because, not far from Qinghe Town, is the territory of the Gaoliang people.

The Gao Liang people live as nomads. This ethnic group is located at the junction of Qi and Dayue, but they do not belong to any country.All of their clansmen are good at breeding good horses, so this nation exports war horses to the two countries.

Qinghe Town is one of the small towns closer to the Gaoliang people. There are often merchants here, so it is relatively prosperous.

The horses in the racecourse here are all bought from the Gaoliang tribe, and they are generally good horses.

As soon as the two entered the racecourse, they happened to see some partners dismantling a carriage. Meng Qing's eyes lit up. The horse is a good horse, and the carriage is also a good carriage. If you don't buy it now, let alone when.

"Man, do you sell this carriage"?

One of the guys looked up at Meng Qing, and saw that he was holding a silk cloth, and he presumably was a rich man, so he politely said, "Of course I will sell it, but this horse has just been collected. If I want to buy it, I have to ask Guanshi Liu for instructions." .

"Then I'm sorry to trouble you." The man smiled politely, and then left.Seeing that he wanted to buy it, the rest of the guys didn't bother to waste their energy dismantling it.Stand aside and gossip.

Meng Qing looked at the horse seriously, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.In the last world, the two of them had nothing to do, and they would go to the racecourse to run horses, so he would also ride horses.

"The customer wants to buy this horse?"

Meng Qing straightened up and glanced at the person who came, he was a tall and strong looking man.

"This is Guanshi Liu! I want to buy it, how much is it?"

Seeing Meng Qing, Guanshi Liu was stunned for a moment, then laughed, looked around the horse for a while and said, "I believe the guests can also see that this is a good horse, and this car is also a good car. Beat around the bush, buy it now, 95 taels."

Meng Qing raised his eyebrows, "This horse is a good horse, and the cart is also made of high-quality wood. It only sells for 95 taels. I'm afraid Guanshi Liu will suffer a lot."

The shopkeeper laughed when he heard this, nodded and clapped his hands and said with a smile, "I'm sure I saw the right person. The little brother is refreshing. It suits my old Liu's eyes. I'll give you this carriage 95 taels."

Meng Qing immediately felt good about her, and said with a smile, "Then I'll be impolite."

Liu Guanshi shook his head, "You're welcome, I feel destined for you as soon as I see you, if the little brother doesn't dislike it, I would like to recognize the little brother as a relative, my nephew is also as old as the little brother, I don't know if the little brother will like it how?"

To be honest, it is not easy for Meng Qing to recognize relatives at the first meeting like this, but he can't feel the malice of this person, and he doesn't seem to have any plans now.

So, let's see what he wants to do.Of course, it is not ruled out that others love each other.Meng Qing thought amusedly.

"Naturally, Uncle Liu, nephew Meng Qing has met."

Guanshi Liu laughed loudly, "Okay, refreshing, your Uncle Liu, my surname is Liu Mingyuan, and I am the third eldest in the family, so you can call me Third Uncle Liu!"

Meng Qing is as good as "Liu Sanshu".

"Nephew Meng", after speaking, the two looked at each other and laughed.

Meng Qing looked at the sky and said, "I really have something to go out today, so I will definitely invite Uncle Liu to the restaurant for a drink some other day!"

Guanshi Liu waved his hand, "Just joking, joking, I am the one who invited you. Since you have something to do, then go quickly, don't delay, I have been at this racecourse, you can come to me at any time."

Meng Qing bowed and led the carriage away.

It's just that he didn't see it. After he turned around, Guanshi Liu looked at his back with extremely complicated eyes.

After coming out of the racecourse, Zheng Xuan was still a little confused. In just a short while, he not only bought a carriage, but also recognized relatives.Zheng Xuan looked at Meng Qing, the admiration in his eyes almost overflowed.

Meng Qing tapped Zheng Xuan's forehead. Although his host looked at him with stars, he was very grateful, but there were some things that he had to explain clearly to him.

"Ah Xuan, I can tell you that no one in this world will be kind to others for no reason. They all have a purpose. No matter whether the purpose is good or bad, you have to handle it carefully!"

Zheng Xuan said softly, "Then why do you still agree?"

Meng Qing smiled, "Why don't you agree? It's a one-sentence matter. I don't suffer from recognizing him. Besides, I also want to see what he means."

Zheng Xuan looked at the sudden question, "Then why are you being so nice to me?"

Why, of course, because you are my host, my A Xuan, my old Gong, but he can't answer like that.

"Of course it's because when I see you, I think of myself when I was a child, so I want to treat you well."

Zheng Xuan smiled, because Meng Qing was kind to him for a good reason.However, for some reason, he felt a little lost in his heart regarding this answer.

"Where do we go now?"

Meng Qing looked at the long street and said with a smile, "Anyway, our family lacks everything. Now that we have a carriage, we can shop as much as we want, so let's just walk along this street and go shopping family by family"!
