Generally speaking, the process for them to obtain the right to live in Arrow City was smooth, although it was a bit baffling.
"There happens to be an empty house over on West Street. You can move in today." The old man said this to himself, not caring whether they could follow.
"Which one is it?" Chen Qiao finally figured it out. This old man just doesn't play by the rules. He just wants to get the information he wants. There is no need for in-depth communication or anything like that.
Brother Geng yelled at the old man: "Third brother, come out."
Then I heard someone over there saying lazily: "Come, come, early in the morning. What are you yelling about"
Chen Qiao and the others looked at the bright sun outside. It turned out that it was still early in the morning
What came out was a disheveled young man, who looked about 24 or 25 years old, but he looked pretty and handsome, but looking at his clothes, his movements, his half-squinted eyes and the gum in the corners of his eyes
It’s actually a bit frustrating.
As expected of two fathers and sons, they were already shocked when they saw the city lord's bare feet. It turned out that the city lord's son was also like this, he didn't stick to trivial matters
Well, in fact, it is normal to be barefoot in this world. Although since Chen Qiao took out the straw sandals, the father and son have not been barefoot in front of outsiders for a long time. Moreover, this is the city lord after all, and he is said to be very wise. old man.
If they remember correctly, most people in the city have to wear shoes. Well, in fact, they have not observed carefully. Who would stare at other people's shoes?
The barefoot Ge Geng City Master said to his son who was picking shit out of his eyes: "You will take these people to the house on West Street in a while."
"Which building?" His son seemed not to be fully awake yet.
"Which other building is there? It's the one that was just vacated."
"Oh, it's the house of the expelled rice merchant." You just say no with a look on your face and that's it.
“Why don’t you hurry up and change your clothes? Why are you taking so long?”
"Ah, but we haven't finished moving the rice and white noodles from the rice merchant. Hey, you also said that it's not good to be seen by the people in the city during the day and asked us to move at night. I can't sleep well now. ." His son complained naggingly, "If you are seen, you will be seen. What does it matter? If you don't move to our house, who else can you move to? Dad, you are also the city lord after all, aren't you?"
Hearing these words, several other people in the room were a little dizzy. Well, what is going on? Does it mean that they are actually on the pirate ship now
"You bastard, are you done yet? Go back to the house and change your clothes!" The old city lord's veins jumped when he heard this, and he kicked his son out.
"Ahem, my son loves to joke and loves to tease me. I really made a few people laugh just now." I said in the most serious and sincere tone I could.
"Hehehe" Chen Qiao didn't know how to react other than laughing.
"You will understand how this city is like after living there for a while. The city gate is always open. You can do as you please."
"I'm really grateful to the city lord!" The atmosphere was a bit awkward, and Chen Qiao didn't know what to say other than thanking him.
"There are no rules in this city, but those who are not upright will be expelled sooner or later." The city lord gave the final advice, but several people did not quite understand what it means to be an upright person. But basically it can be understood that the city lord Gegen doesn't like those people who are "not upright". Since the city lord doesn't like them, do you still want to stay in this city?
After a while, the third son of the city lord changed his clothes and came out. He said goodbye to the city lord. Chen Qiao and the others also left with the young man.
The third son of Ge Geng's family yawned while walking. He passed by an old man selling sesame cakes and took one. After taking it, he greeted everyone with a smile. He had a pleasant face and seemed to be very popular in this city. People like it.
"Well, my name is Sansu. I will live in this city from now on. I won't meet you until you look up. Please introduce yourself. I am the third son of the city lord."
"Sansu?" This name is quite strange, and it doesn't quite fit in with the naming habits here.
"Oh, my father believed that the world was big and the grains were the biggest. Unfortunately, he failed to live up to his expectations, so he gave birth to three children. My eldest brother is named Dadao, and my second brother is named Ermai."
"Haha, Sansu is a good name."
"Hahaha, it's just so-so, just a little better than three beans." (Note: Five grains are millet, beans, hemp, wheat, and rice.)
He was really funny, and Chen Qiao couldn't help laughing, completely unaware of Baya's expression on the side.It's getting darker.
Also in the dark is Mai Xi, because no matter what he did today, he couldn't attract his father's attention. That one named San Su is the most annoying!
This rice merchant’s house was not bad, but he was expelled by the city lord for some reason. The rice in stock was also confiscated, that is, it was transferred to the city lord’s warehouse.
Sansu sent a few of them there, and then called for people to carry away the remaining rice in the house, one sack at a time, without leaving any rice for them. If they hadn't already known the original residents here, no one would have thought that a rice merchant once lived here and that a large amount of rice grains were stored in this house.
Chen Qiao and others try to clean the house briefly before dark, and we will talk about quilts and other things tomorrow. After spending more than half a year sleeping in an uninhabited outdoors, they finally had a place of their own to stay. They all felt at ease and slept very well that night.
There are three rooms in this house, which are still the same. Chen Qiao and Baya sleep in one room, Maixi and Dilla sleep in one room, and there is another room where Lan Jia lives alone.
The warehouse is quite big. Chen Qiao doesn't know what to use it for now. There is also a facade room. The facade of a rice merchant is not in a bad location. Although it is not very prosperous, it will be possible to do some business in the future. not bad.
Baya got up early the next morning to sort out the things he had brought. His big parcel was really packed with a lot of things. He originally wanted to bring the big iron pot at home, but Chen Qiao rejected it. But later on, I was really afraid of Maixi’s entanglement, so I had to ask the pregnant Ada to make another mold and cast a smaller iron pot to take with me.
Chen Qiao found it incredible at first that Baya would bring hammers, chisels, etc. no matter what, but now he felt that the leader was really infinitely wise. Because there are no iron tools in Arrow City, and he also looked at the rice merchant's inventory. Judging from the rough wheat flour, there must be no such thing as stone grinding in this place.
Thinking about it, although bronze is not bad, it is not as hard and wear-resistant as iron. It is probably quite difficult to use bronze to chisel stone.
So naturally, Chen Qiao discovered the first business opportunity, which was to sell stone mills. Although it was a strenuous job, it was better than doing nothing. But it's wrong to think about it. When making stone mills, hammers and chisels are consumed. The iron tools they have now are limited, so they have to use them sparingly.
Thinking about it again, why not make a big stone mill and help others grind rice, wheat, etc. Although the income will definitely not be particularly high, I can make a living at least.
Chen Qiao told Baya this idea, and Baya was very happy, because raising children and supporting a wife is what every man should do, and being able to rely on Chen Qiao made Baya feel very satisfied. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
