Chapter 199 The illness comes like a mountain
After talking about the medicine, Su Tai pointed to another baggage, "Here are the bread and cakes I prepared. They can be stored for seven or eight days. They are enough for you to use as dry food on the road without choking."
You are carrying self-defense weapons, so I feel more at ease. Please pay more attention to my father. He is so praised that he can't even remember who he is. "
Shen Yi wanted to laugh when he heard this, "My father-in-law is still very successful. Don't worry, I will take good care of him."
After the two of them finished talking, Shen Yi went out with his things. He also had an emergency two hundred taels of silver with him and a batch of brown sugar on the ox cart. He could accomplish a lot of things during this trip.
Su Tai took her children and sent Shen Yi out of the village before turning back.
Shen Yi and Su Chunlin kept driving all the way, and finally arrived in Zhaohua County when it was getting dark.
Su Chunlin was so full of complaints that he didn't even want to say anything anymore. When he entered the inn, he asked his doubts, "What on earth are you loading on that bullock cart? The cows can hardly move! I don't know how I feel about the animals!"
They could have arrived more than an hour earlier today, but because Shen Yi's bullock cart couldn't move fast, they were almost blocked from the county town.
Shen Yi leaned over and whispered next to Su Chunlin: "I brought out a large cart of brown sugar. I will sell some of it in the county town early tomorrow morning and then go to Fucheng."
"What? Did you get brown sugar out?" Su Chunlin was shocked, then frowned, "This is the Bai family's territory, are you not afraid of being discovered?"
Shen Yi didn't take it seriously, "What are you afraid of? Magistrate Qin just sold a batch of goods at the end of last year, and there was no movement from the Bai family. They will never think twice about the goods I'm selling now. Besides, we are going to Fucheng, what are we afraid of?" ?”
Su Chunlin wanted to understand the key and gave a thumbs up to Shen Yi, "You are really getting more and more thief now. I am not as thoughtful as you, but how much did you bring out?"
"One thousand catties." Shen Yi showed his big white teeth.
Su Chunlin took a breath of air, full of pity for the Shen family's cattle.
In order to sell out all the brown sugar in their hands as soon as possible, the two of them got up early, checked out the hotel with the innkeeper, and asked the innkeeper if he wanted brown sugar.
The shopkeeper didn't expect Shen Yi to have such a good thing in his hand, and he immediately became interested, "I want it! But at this price."
"Sixteen cents." Shen Yi said decisively: "I know that one or two pounds outside is worth eighteen cents. If you buy more, I can give you two cents cheaper."
The shopkeeper hurriedly went with Shen Yi to inspect the goods. He was really satisfied with Shen Yi's brown sugar, but he was also really picky about it. The two bargained for a while, and finally the deal was settled at fifteen cents for one or two.
The shopkeeper bought two hundred kilograms alone, and he didn't know what he was going to use it for.
Shen Yi collected the money and immediately drove the bullock cart to a dim sum shop.
Dessert shops need a lot of sugar, but the price of brown sugar is too high. The prices of any snacks that use brown sugar in the shop are extremely high.
The shopkeeper knew that Shen Yi could sell brown sugar with good quality and cheap price, so how could he miss this opportunity.
I asked for five hundred pounds now.
Brown sugar can be stored for a long time as long as it is stored properly. If I don’t stock up on more this time, where can I find someone next time?
Because Shen Yi's brown sugar was of high quality, the shopkeeper kept asking for his details.
Shen Yi only said that they were going back to Fucheng and said nothing else.
The shopkeeper really couldn't ask and had to give up.
There were still three hundred kilograms of brown sugar left. The two of them wanted to drink it in the streets and alleys. Because of the price of fifteen cents, everyone had to buy some, one or two kilograms of this, two or three kilograms of that, but it was sold out in half an hour.
It was just past midnight, and the streets were getting lively. The two bought two steaming bowls of gnocchi soup to warm their stomachs and hit the road.
In just one morning, Shen Yi made another one hundred and fifty taels. Su Chunlin really admired his ability to make money, and felt very happy. His son-in-law was very capable, and his daughter's life was destined to be prosperous. So could his father-in-law. Follow the light.
Bai Feng didn't receive the news until they left Zhaohua County, and he immediately got off the bed in the concubine's room, "You said there were two people selling brown sugar this time, and they went to Fucheng?"
The steward nodded respectfully, "The information I heard is correct, but the accents of those two people are not like those from Fucheng. I don't know if they really went to Fucheng or just pretended to be there!"
A dark light flashed in Bai Feng's eyes, and he clenched his fists tightly, "Gamble again, if I still get nothing this time, I will consider myself unlucky! Send someone to guard the entrance and exit of the county. Pay careful attention these two days. See if those two people show up."
The manager responded and left.
On Shen Yi's side, after two days of running around, they finally arrived in Fucheng.
Looking at the towering city wall, Su Chunlin was frightened, "Shen Yi! Can we really go in?"
Shen Yi came back to his senses and nodded slightly, "Father-in-law, look at those people, we should be fine if we follow them."
"Oh oh oh, that's right! We haven't done anything illegal, so what are we afraid of!" Su Chunlin cheered himself up and drove the bullock cart into the crowd.
Soon the two of them entered Lizhou Fucheng.
Su Chunlin asked all the way to the place Su Chuan said, and finally entered a crowded alley.
Can you still see children laughing and playing jumping out of the alley?
Su Chunlin handed the bullock cart to Shen Yi and went in himself.
After a while, he came over with Su Chunsen and Suchuan.
Shen Yi immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that they brought a bunch of things, Su Chunsen couldn't help but frown, "What are you doing here?"
Su Chunlin grinned, "Of course I'm here to see you! Look, I brought you a lot of food!"
Su Chunsen helplessly held up his forehead, "There is no shortage of anything in the city, aren't you just messing around?"
Wan came in with tea and said: "Achuan's father, stop talking. It's a rare visit for my brother-in-law and Shen Yi, so we have to treat him well. However, Kang Cheng's child has been sick these two days, and I have to help Yunyun take care of him." Children, I’m afraid I can’t take care of you anymore.”
When Su Chunlin heard this, he immediately became concerned, "What's going on?"
Wan Shi sighed, "The child is usually in good health, but every time he gets sick, he gets very serious. He has had a fever for two days and has not been able to get rid of it. Yunyun secretly cried several times, and I don't know. What to do.”
"Hurry up and find a doctor!" Su Chunlin got angry when he heard this.
Su Chunsen looked tense and said: "I've searched for the doctor three times, and I've given him medicine, but he just can't retreat. You all know how important this child is, but you must not get confused by the fever."
Su Chunlin was extremely anxious now.
Seeing this, Shen Yi hurriedly opened his bag and said, "Xiaomo prepared some medicine for me when I went out. One of them is for headaches and brain fever. I don't know if the child can use it."
"What kind of medicine?" Everyone came over anxiously.
When Shen Yi opened the medicine bottle and took out a large white pill, everyone was stunned.
