Chapter 5 If you want to make progress, you need to take steps back.

Today was the day when the salesmen came to the village, so Fang Shu got up early to freshen up.

After twenty days of continuous feeding, hard work and conscious exercise, Fang Shu's face was rosy and shiny. Her body was still petite and exquisite, but her hands and feet were strong.

It's just that in the Tang Dynasty, where there were no human rights or women's rights, and the original owner's unflattering character, Fang Shu knew that beauty was the original sin, and she did not dare to take the risk of exposing herself.

Fang Shu used grass juice to paint her face, hands, wrists and arms yellow, and then used the bottom of a pot to paint them with gray.

When I took a photo in the water vat, my face was still dark yellow, and my hands looked a little dirty as if they couldn't be washed clean.

This grass juice was found by Fang Shu when she went into the mountains. It was rich in juice and she accidentally got it on her hands. It was ginger-yellow and not toxic or uncomfortable. She washed it off after five days.

I tried it twice in a row and found that my hands became whiter after being thoroughly washed. Oh, it also has a whitening effect, what an unexpected surprise.

From then on, Fang Shu pulled back dozens of grasses every day, squeezed out the juice and accumulated it into a small jar. Then she dried a large bundle. When she had time, she would see if the boiled juice was usable. She wanted to give it to her whole body.

Let’s do a whitening DIY.

After packing up some mountain goods that were to be replaced, Fang Shu came out of the cave dwelling. At a glance, she saw messy footprints in front of the cave door. The new cave dwelling where the firewood was kept was also in a mess.

You can give it to the cats and dogs at home first, and then eat it when you believe it is okay.

"You can also find a carpenter to make a small frame so that you can load more cargo. Brother Yang can also take the car and go."

Fang Shu was secretly alert, someone had been here! Was it day or night yesterday? A villager or an outsider?

I came back too late yesterday and didn't pay attention. Fang Shu was so tired that she fell asleep a little bit at night and didn't hear anything. The villagers and she had always been at peace with each other. Could it be that she was an outsider?

Fang Shu's thoughts turned quickly and she went back to the cave dwelling to check whether there were any things missing, whether the location had changed, and no one had entered the cave dwelling. It seemed that she had to inquire about the situation and take precautions before it happened.

It's just like what I said. Please ask Brother Yang to sell it to dry goods stores or restaurants.

"I suggest that Brother Yang buy a donkey and let it carry a basket on each side. This can avoid the burden of carrying a load, speed up the journey, and cover more villages in a day."

This product can relieve constipation, moisturize the intestines, detoxify and nourish blood. People with habitual diarrhea should use it with caution.

It can be eaten directly dipped in vinegar, fried with eggs, or fried with other vegetables.

When Yang Erlang heard this, he thought this was a good thing and quite worth the money.

After a while, Fang Shu saw Yang Erlang walking over tremblingly carrying a load. He was still far away and said hello to Fang Shu:

"Hey, it's the third lady. What are you planning to exchange for this time?"

Yang Erlang stopped and put down his burden. He checked and weighed the mountain goods skillfully, and he kept counting. There were quite a few pine nuts, mushrooms, chestnut mountain apples, totaling 967. The salesman picked up a large bag of fungus and asked Fang Shu:

"Okay, okay, five kilograms and six taels is high. Then I will try to sell this fungus for the third lady. I won't charge you more. Thank you for the gift of the other six taels." Yang Erlang clasped his hands.

"Brother Yang, please weigh the fungus. I will store the whole catty for you first and give you the fraction to try.

"Then please tell Miss Third, how to eat fungus? How much is it worth?"

"You can buy it, you can buy it. It's expensive, about ten taels of silver."

"Brother Yang, first look at the value of the mountain goods in the basket?"

Fang Shu was surprised. The salesman was well-travelled, but he didn’t seem to know the fungus, so he explained:

"This thing grows on rotten wood and looks like an ear, so it is called fungus. Mushrooms also grow on rotten wood. Fungus, like mushrooms, belongs to the fungus category."

How could a man who truly loves you tolerate you suffering? Obviously Xue Pinggui is not.

Most people have a strong mentality. If they are greedy for vanity and use any means, they are undoubtedly villains.

The value of this item is more than twice that of mushrooms.”

The salesman is quite good at talking, Fang Shu thought to herself. Then she continued:

I don’t want to exchange the goods this time. I would like to ask Brother Yang to bring me a set of men’s clothing made of cotton and coarse cloth, as well as men’s shoes and a hat. They are three feet of coarse cloth of the same style. Is it okay if I give you more money and less compensation?”

Fang Shu quickly tidied up the firewood hole and blocked the straw curtain.

"Miss Third, forgive me for being naive, but what is this black thing?"

People, sometimes if you break the stereotyped thinking and change the perspective, you will change the status quo and even get out of the predicament. There will be another village full of flowers on the willow bank!

It's even funnier to say it's true love. Wang Baochuan is a woman. Her bottomless kindness and soft-heartedness will eventually harm her.

Well, it’s useless to think too much. I just confirmed once again that my family and lover are not well-intentioned towards Wang Baochuan.

It's funny to say, why can Wang Baochuan live in Powa Hanyao in Wujiapo? Because this was Xue Pinggui's former home.

The salesman's surname is Yang. He is short in stature and is known as Yang Erlang. He is a small department store seller with a naive face but a shrewd heart. He can also order other needed goods. Well, he is a purchasing agent.

I also heard Fang Shu say:

Looking up at the sky, it was almost noon and the salesman was about to come out of the village. Fang Shu followed the dirt road to the main road and waited for the salesman.

In Xue Pinggui's eyes, Wang Baochuan, who married down, was stubborn, was willing to be poor, and would not use the connections of the prime minister's office to make profits for himself, had no value, and it would be strange if he was not given up.

Yang Erlang bowed deeply and saluted:

"Thank you, Miss Third, for the tip. On my own, I really didn't think it could be like this."

Fang Shu saw Yang Erlang picking up the cargo basket to leave. The cargo basket was so heavy that the pole was bent under the weight.

In Yang Erlang's subconscious mind, carriages, oxen, and donkeys were things that wealthy people should have, and he did not deserve them. All the sellers carried burdens to walk around the streets, and he should also carry the burdens.

Pick and wash them, tear them into pieces of the same size, put them in a pot under cold water, cook them and take them out.

Fang Shu added:

Yang Erlang's eyes widened when he heard this. It's not such a brilliant idea, but why didn't I think of it? I can afford a donkey.

"Second Brother Yang, please wait a moment. I also want to ask, is it possible to buy a donkey?"

"Third Miss, it's okay to say it, I'm all ears."

"I don't quite understand the rules of your trade as a salesman. I have a suggestion. Would you like Brother Yang to listen to it?"

Wang Baochuan volunteered to accompany Xue Pinggui to suffer, but he just moved himself.

“This product is the best for soaking. You only need to grab a large handful with your hands and soak it in cold water for about two hours. After it is ready, it can fill a large plate.

After bidding farewell to the salesman, Fang Shu walked slowly, picked up some fine pieces of firewood and put them into her basket. She was not in a hurry to go home, hoping to meet a villager and find out who came to her home.

After waiting for a while, the shepherd boy appeared and drove the sheep back to the village along the road. The shepherd boy told Fang Shu that it was her second sister Wang Yinchuan who had come.

The second sister is so diligent in coming here. Are you so happy to see my jokes?

Fang Shu thought to herself, it seems that she should try not to be at home during the day, and she doesn't want to meet acquaintances for the time being. When she finds a good place, she will escape to death so that you can never find Wang Baochuan again.
