Ruan Mingzi, a simple-dressed girl, was walking on the stone path with two beautiful feathers, holding on to a wooden stick, which was really eye-catching.

Some people can't help but look at it a few more times.

Speaking of which, Ruan Mingzi was lucky. She had just turned into the main street from the fork. After walking a few steps, she fell back from the carriage passing by her and stopped on the side of the stone path. The carriage carriage door opened, lifted the curtain, and a girl with a pair of wool buns appeared from the carriage. After looking at the left and right, she jumped down and asked her: "Hey, little sister, are you going to sell this pheasant?"

Ruan Mingzi nodded and smiled sweetly: "Do you want to buy it in your sister? I just hunted it from the mountains this morning. I am still alive, very fresh."

Who doesn't like the little girl who is polite and polite and looks good? The girl with a pair of buns smiled: "You are smart. Our lady has always liked to play shuttlecocks. Seeing that your pheasant is bright, she wanted to buy it. Little sister, how much does it cost to sell your pheasant?"

Just hearing this, Ruan Mingzi knew that the girl in front of her should be the maid of a wealthy family. She was really rich, so she bought a pheasant just to prick a shuttlecock.

Ruan Mingzi thought for a while and said truthfully, "I don't hide it from you, sister. I just came to the county town, and it's not clear how much this pheasant can be sold. Can I ask about the price first? It's not too late to make a joke."

The girl in the carriage couldn't help laughing. The little girl was quite good at speaking, her voice was crisp and pleasant. She happened to be in a good mood, so she didn't mind waiting for a while.

She snorted: "Chenyu, there should be those selling these on the street next to you. Take her over and ask."

The maid with a pair of buns responded, then smiled at Ruan Mingzi, "What our lady said, the little sister just heard it? Why don't we go over and ask?"

Ruan Mingzi responded with a smile, and soon after, she walked back with the maid called "Chenyu".

The man in the carriage smiled and said, "Is there a price now?"

Ruan Mingzi heard that there was something joking about it, and she didn't mind. She smiled openly: "I just asked with this sister Chenyu. Because there are all poultry there, it is not the same as the pheasants hunted from the mountains, and they can't be discussed together. They can only be used as a reference... Although the girl may not mind this slightest, I also explained to the girl that the chicken raised at home usually costs twenty cents per one, and that type of chicken is small, and the pheasant in my hand is big, let alone bright feathers. I also saw that the girl really liked it, so I didn't want it much. A pheasant only costs for forty cents. If the girl wants both, I will give her five cents at the same time, and the girl only gives me seventy-five cents."

"this……"

The girl in the carriage was obviously stunned. She didn't expect Ruan Mingzi to say so carefully to her. She couldn't help laughing, "You just praised me just now, why did you take the initiative to go for me?... But after you cut it, I only planned to buy one, but now I want to buy these two."

She smiled and told Chenyu, "Chenyu, give this little girl seventy-five pennies."

Chen Yu responded, took off a sachet from his waist, searched for a long time, and took out a small piece of broken silver: "Miss, we just bought a lot of things and piled them in the carriage. The copper plates were almost used, and only some broken silver was left. This broken silver should be the same."

The girl in the carriage obviously didn't care much about these things, and she said, "It's okay."

Ruan Mingzi looked at it with a stern look. She said, "Miss, wait a moment", took the broken silver and ran to a restaurant next to the stone road, borrowed the bad guy there, and after weighing it, she came back with the broken silver and smiled and took out thirteen copper plates from the hidden bag in her sleeve, and handed them to Chenyu: "This is a change."

Seeing Chenyu and the girl in the car were so shocked that they couldn't speak, Ruan Mingzi slowly said: "Although I am young, I know that the most important thing in doing business is integrity. Since the girl believes that I have made a deal with me, I must not let my trust down."

She put the horn of silver into her sleeve bag and pushed the two pheasants on the ground to the carriage: "The money is over, thank you for taking care of the business~"

Ruan Mingzi waved her hand and left happily.

Chenyu looked down at the thirteen copper plates in her hand, and then looked at Ruan Mingzi's back as she left, feeling a little amused. This was the first time she encountered such a thing and muttered: "It's so stupid..."

The girl in the carriage lifted a corner of the curtain and looked out, and said with a smile: "Are you stupid?...not necessarily."

...

Ruan Mingzi was really happy at this moment. She only had 80 cents left on her. After taking out the ten cents of car fare, she only had 70 cents left.

At present, the two pheasants doubled her savings at once.

This was just something she had hunted before she came, and it didn't take much effort.

I never expected that the hobbies I learned from local mountain villagers during my inspection trip that year became an important means of making a living after she traveled through time.

Is this just a peck and drink? Could it be that it was decided before?

With money in hand and determined how to make money, Ruan Mingzi had a clear idea. She also had a gray rabbit skin in her bag, which she sold for eleven cents. After processing the things she brought from the bag, she went to the salt merchant's shop and spent ten cents to buy some coarse salt. She spent another penny. The seller built her a small wooden jar and brought a lid. It was small and beautiful and affordable, and it was just right to put salt in it.

Immediately afterwards, Ruan Mingzi turned to the porcelain shop again.

The ones at home are all utensils made of bamboo cut into sections. They can easily become moldy after using them for a long time. Ruan Mingzi now has some extra money, so she simply spent 18 cents to buy four bowls, four plates, and two pairs of chopsticks, tied them with straw ropes and wrapped them in a small bag.

With some miscellaneous daily necessities, Ruan Mingzi finally had the silver slit left in her hand that she had just sold pheasants.

Although Ruan Mingzi felt distressed, she knew that she should not be vague when spending the money. She grabbed the last silver slot and entered the cloth shop.

This is a slightly remote cloth shop, and the business seems to be not very good. According to Ruan Mingzi's careful observation along the way, the many cloth patterns displayed in the store are a bit outdated.

Perhaps because of the rush, the shopkeeper gave it to him was relatively affordable.

Ruan Mingzi had also gone to several cloth shops next to him and asked about the price. He naturally knew that the price given by the shopkeeper was very reliable.

She picked a slightly tender cloth, which was only half of the cloth left. In addition, it was kept on display for a while and the color was a little darker and looked a little old. Therefore, the shopkeeper discounted her nearly one-third of the price, and the price she got was very affordable.

Ruan Mingzi was very satisfied with this. The cloth was only displayed for a long time after wind and sun exposure, and the color was a bit dim, but it was okay.

After returning to Yuyuanpo, I spent some copper coins to ask my aunt who knows how to make clothes in the village to help cut it out. I guess she and Ruan Mingyan could make two outfits, and the price in this way would be much cheaper than ready-to-wear.

Ruan Mingzi carried the cloth out of the cloth shop. An old woman was selling her own gauze cloth shoes on the street. Ruan Mingzi squatted down and looked carefully. The soles of the cloth shoes were so thin that they were very strong at first glance, but the price was moderate. A pair cost only ten cents.

Like Ruan Mingyan's shoes for children, they are even cheaper, only six cents.

Ruan Mingzi measured the soles of the shoes with one oak and chose two pairs. Although they were gray, they were better because they were durable and easy to wear.

When Ruan Mingzi walked to the agreed place to get on the bus outside the county town with her full spoils, she only had thirty cents left.
