    It is not difficult to live in Arrow City, but if you want to make a huge difference through opportunism, spend your money and live a luxurious life, it is impossible.  In this city, the people who have the most difficult life are those businessmen who buy and resell.

    It is said that the original resident of their house, the rice merchant, violated this taboo, which ultimately led to the family being expelled from Airo City.

    With the lessons learned from the past, Chen Qiao did not dare to make any more plans in this area. After gradually understanding the things in this city, Chen Qiao felt that the price of his few pearls was really not low. These businessmen here and him  There is a big gap between previous perceptions.

    In this city, businessmen are regarded as lazy people who are not engaged in production. Although they bring some convenience to life in the city, at the same time, they are also fed by farmers' rice.

    The big shots in the city, mainly the city lord, mostly live a simple life, but they are undoubtedly rich, because all the copper resources in this area are in the hands of the political group headed by the city lord.  Therefore, they can choose to live a simple life, but when these people occasionally need luxury, or some people just like to live a luxurious life, it doesn't matter as long as it is not ostentatious enough to arouse the resentment of the city lord.

    ?????????????? Chen Qiao¡¯s family is classified as a group of low-status merchants, so they must keep a low profile as much as possible when living here, and they must not have anything to do with profiteering.

    Ge Geng, the city lord, doesn¡¯t seem to like businessmen very much. To put it bluntly, he just can¡¯t see how easy it is for some people to make money.  Although it is quite easy for their family to get money, it is said that their house has a complete set of equipment for minting knife coins.

    They discussed it and decided that the rice and grain business in their area would be good, but they should forget about buying and selling.  Since the city lord is opposed to high profits, it is really difficult to grasp the scale of this huge profit, and they just came here and don't know much about many things.  Just be honest and sell your strength to make money.

    When Baya was making the stone mill, Chen Qiao went to Sansu to borrow space. He wanted to melt the knife he was equipped with and turn it into the rotating shaft in the middle of the stone mill.  Sansu was also easy to talk to. Anyway, they had a copper smelting place at home, so they took Chen Qiao there and let him do what he wanted.

    As for Dila, they need to make wooden parts. Since they want to do business, they need to build a relatively larger stone mill this time. Such a large stone mill cannot always be built manually, so they need to buy a shelf and then directly  Buy a donkey and come back to work.

    Lan Jia, who had a big belly, also helped them tidy up the store. She and Maixi were cleaning the inside and outside of the house. They also bought all the things they needed to buy, including quilts, sheets, and even pots and pans.  Later, Chen Qiao simply gave her a bunch of money and asked her to be a housekeeper. He only had some left over, which was more or less enough.

    The appearance of Lan Jia made these men see how convenient it is to have a woman at home, but Chen Qiao no longer had that thought. After all, he had followed Baya for several years and had always treated Maixi and Dila.  Treat him like his own son.  Even if there is no relationship between them and Baya, at least the two of them already treat each other as family members.

    Now Chen Qiao is about to turn thirty. He has no strength to change the things he has become accustomed to. After experiencing so much, he just wants to live a stable life, even if it is a little harder and a little monotonous.

    This stone mill took Baya nearly ten days. He had already made several stone mills in the tribe before. Now that he has experience, he is very comfortable making stone mills.  It was already half a month later when they finished the stone mill and bought the donkeys, and bought some corn and wheat from the countryside. They ground it into fine powder with a stone mill and sold it in the front room.

    Because considering the living standards here, they simply process it for others.  Grind ten pounds and gain one pound.  In other words, if anyone wants to grind ten kilograms of powder, they have to bring eleven kilograms of materials to Chen Qiao and the others.

    In order to let more people realize the benefits of fine flour, Chen Qiao took advantage of the lack of business in the first two days, set up a table in an open space in front of their house, and made some steamed buns to sell outside. The price was very cheap.  Each wowotou is sold for one ring coin.

    Basically, apart from the money for corn flour and firewood, he made no profit from this business, so it was just a waste of money.  But there was still a response. In the afternoon, some women came over and asked him how to make the steamed buns. Chen Qiao did not hesitate to teach him, explaining the entire production process clearly to everyone.

    ??????????????????????? The people in Ailuo City finally knew that this steamed bun was originally made of corn flour, but the flour had to be fine powder, and Chen Qiao and his family could grind it. I heard that they had a master??, you can grind out a lot in one day

    Grinding ten kilograms of flour to pay for one kilogram of grain. As long as ordinary people have a surplus of grain, most people are still willing to do it. After all, their original processing method wasted time and wasted food. This time, a processing workshop has popped up, even if it is to try something new.  With a mentality, everyone also wants to bring some food to grind.

    Especially the businessmen in this city. Although these people have a low status, it is always easier for them to get money than the farmers, so they naturally have much less money to eat and drink.  Nowadays, there are people who can grind such fine noodles, and the price is quite affordable, so only fools continue to eat thick noodles.

    Recently, San Su often came to their house to move around. Sometimes they didn't do anything. They sat on the side to watch their stone mill. At first glance, it was a afternoon, and it was tasteless. I didn't know what the door came.  Chen Qiao and the others were used to it, so they didn't pay much attention to him. They just did whatever they were supposed to do and just treated him as transparent.

    But there is one thing about the third young master of the city lord¡¯s family who is very disliked, that is, he likes to eat at their house.  After working hard all day, it is a very comfortable and warm thing for the whole family to gather together to have a meal.

    But this third young master doesn¡¯t have any sharp eyesight, he is still a familiar person, and he doesn¡¯t know how to respect the old and care for the young.  In short, Maixi thought that this person had very bad character, and Baya became angry when he saw this person.

    Isn¡¯t this right?  I came early this morning and everyone was having breakfast, egg pancakes and polenta.  Crispy pancakes are inlaid with emerald green peppers and golden eggs. The most important thing about this pancake is the heat. How to make it crispy on the outside and tender on the inside also depends on technique.

    "Hey, Sansu, have you had breakfast?" Chen Qiao greeted with a fake smile on his face.

    "Hehe, no." There is no more shameless person in the world than the third young master of the city lord's family.

    "Then why don't we eat together." Besides saying that, does Chen Qiao have any other choice?

    "Haha, why are you embarrassed about that?" The guy declined, and pointed at the pancakes on the table with his paws.  Maisie puffed out her cheeks and her eyes were as round as the "bird eggs" at home, but unfortunately others just pretended not to see her.

    "Why are you so polite? Haha, let's sit down and eat together." The corners of Chen Qiao's mouth had already begun to cramp.

    "No, no, haha, you can eat, I'll come over later to play." This guy grabbed two pancakes.

    "Oh, that's okay, haha, come here often." He didn't want to say the last three words, but they were etiquette.

    "Yeah, yeah, I took these pancakes away, haha, Chen Qiao, the pancakes you made are so delicious!" Sansu munched the pancakes while walking outside.

    "It's okay, I like to get a few more." Chen Qiao's words attracted the attention of the people at the table.

    Maixi angrily accused him: Dad, what can I eat after he took it away?

    Baya didn¡¯t dare to accuse Chen Qiao, but his dislike for Sansu had gone deep into his bones.

    Lan Jia glanced at Chen Qiao, with a half-smile on his face.

    Dilla was still innocent, glanced at his father, then lowered his head and continued eating.

    Chen Qiao was very wronged. In fact, he really didn't want to fawn over Sansu, but he had no choice. He was the third young master of the city lord's family under the roof.

    ????????? Let¡¯s talk about this Sansu.

    ¡°Well, this cake is good, I¡¯ll have to come here more often some other time¡± He muttered as he walked, but unexpectedly, the cake was snatched away just after he took two steps out of Chen Qiao¡¯s house.

    "Ah San, how can you eat alone? I've been eyeing this family for a long time, but unfortunately I'm not familiar with them, hehe" A tall, careless young man said to him with a smile, holding two pieces of pancakes in his hands.  Sansu said.

    "If you like to eat, go in and go with others, don't snatch it from me!" Sansu stretched out his hand to grab it.

    "Hehe, isn't that embarrassing?" the tall man said and took a bite of the pancake he snatched.

    "Hey, boy, it's such a big mouthful, and we haven't even eaten it yet!" The other two young men nearby were dissatisfied.

    "Wellit's gone. Why didn't you leave a bite for me? My pancakesI had to go to great lengths to get two of them, you guys!"
