The foreigner with yellow hair and blue eyes walked out disappointed.
This was the first time he went abroad to do business. He brought many gems, spices, medicinal materials, glassware and other commodities to Nalan Kingdom and sold them all. He made a lot of money and only sold this bag of seeds. This kind of seeds was his Collected from many countries traveled along the way.
He thought that these new species could be sold at a high price here, but he didn't expect that no one would buy them!
The caravan was about to return home. He was reluctant to throw away the bag of seeds and decided to take it back home.
Nuan Nuan ran directly to that person. People were coming and going on the street. She didn't speak English. She just asked: "Uncle Blue Eyes, what's in your bag?"
Nuan Nuan pointed to his bag.
Wen Jiarui saw that Wen Nuan was so bold and that these aliens who looked like monsters were not afraid and even ran over. He hurried to his side.
"This is a seed, little girl, do you want to buy it? I'll sell it to you cheaper!" Smith said lamely in a sentence that was half Nalan Mandarin and half English.
Nuan Nuan nodded: "I want to buy it, how much money?"
"Five taels!" Smith stretched out five fingers and took out five taels of silver.
He originally planned to sell this bag of seeds for ten taels.
Wen Jiarui's eyes widened when he heard this: "Sister Nuan, most of the seeds sold by these aliens cannot be planted. Five taels is too expensive, don't buy them!"
After saying that, he waved to Smith again: "I'm sorry, my daughter is playful and joking. We won't buy it. It's too expensive."
Smith understood a few words: Sorry, I won’t buy it, it’s too expensive.
He said anxiously: "I have collected these seeds from many countries. These coffee beans can make very fragrant coffee. These cocoa can be made into delicious chocolate. These are onion seeds, which can be made into delicious chocolate." Pizza, these are tulip seeds..."
Smith took out a small bag of seeds from the big black bag, about one or two pounds of seeds, and explained that there were a dozen kinds of seeds in total.
Wen Jiarui didn't understand a word.
He waved his hand: "I don't know what you are talking about, I don't know these things, I won't buy them, I won't buy them!"
Nuan Nuan's eyes were bright, and she said to Wen Jiarui: "Dad, I know these seeds, they are of great use to me."
Wen Jiarui was speechless now.
My daughter said it would be of great use, so she must be right.
Nuan Nuan took out five taels of silver and handed it to him: "Here! I bought it."
In this backward dynasty, it is not easy to make money across the ocean, and the risks are high. There is no bargaining for warmth.
Smith didn't expect Nuan Nuan to buy it without even telling the price.
He was very moved for a moment!
He took out a wishing bottle from a cloth bag on his body and gave it to her: "Kind little girl, I wish you good luck!"
This was something he picked up in the sea. There was something written in it, but he couldn't understand it.
He has nothing else on him now, so he can only give this to her.
Nuan Nuan took it and imitated what he said in English: "Thank you and wish you good luck!"
Smith's eyes widened. Could this little girl understand what he was saying
Or a coincidence
Wen Nuan approached him and murmured something in a low voice.
Smith was so shocked that his blue eyes almost popped out of his head.
Nuan Nuan ignored his surprise. She waved to him with the bag of seeds and a drift bottle: "88."
Then he ran back to the cart.
Wen Jiarui clasped his fists at Smith: "Farewell!"
Then walk back quickly.
Smith was left in shock and couldn't recover for a long time.
In the grocery store, Mrs. Yang was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped when she saw that Wen Nuan actually spent five taels of silver to buy the alien's seeds!
That's five taels of silver
Then she thought of something and secretly rejoiced that such a prodigal girl was lucky enough to break off the engagement. If she married her back home, she might even have ruined the grocery store!
Having finished shopping, Nuan Nuan and others headed back home.
When Fang ran out with an impatient Zhu Zhenxuan, Nuan Nuan and others were already gone.
"Sister Nuan, they are gone? What did you buy? Did you give them any discount?"
"No, I just said that the purchase price has increased, and they ran across the street and bought a bunch of things with unhappy faces! Mom, this family is a white-eyed wolf, don't interact with each other in the future!" Yang saw that her mother-in-law actually put When my son was pulled out, I felt unhappy!
It seems that she still wants her son to marry the god of plague!
"How could that happen? Did you say something unpleasant?"
"What did I say? I just said that the purchase price has gone up. This is the truth! They thought I lied to them! And that Nuan sister actually spent five taels of silver to buy those unknown seeds from the aliens. Everyone knows that the seeds brought by the foreigners cannot be planted, and the seeds that are planted do not know what they are! Such a prodigal, don’t think about letting Zhenxuan marry such a wife in the future, I will not agree! " Yang made it clear this time.
After hearing what Yang said, Mrs. Fang sighed in her heart: "That's all, I won't care about Zhenxuan's affairs from now on."
In life, no one has experienced ups and downs. Things like money can be lost once you have them, and you can have them again once you have lost them.
In the past, when Guizhi's family was relatively wealthy, she had no problem with her baby marrying the Yang family. Later, when Sister Nuan was in poor health, she had many objections. Forget it then, after all, every mother hopes that her son will marry a wife who is in good health so that the family can continue the family line.
Now she thinks Sister Nuan is doing well, but she still has objections. She dislikes her poverty!
Zhenxuan didn't like Sister Nuan either, but he was very attracted to Sister Yu who had an unpleasant temperament.
In this way, Sister Nuan won't be happy even if she gets married in the future. Forget it, don't harm other good girls.
She wanted to repay Sister Guizhi for helping her in the past, not revenge.
Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, she doesn’t care!
—
After shopping, Wen Nuan and the others went home happily.
Nuan Nuan explained to Wen Jiarui what was in the bag of seeds, the functions of coffee beans, the functions of cocoa beans, etc.
She doesn't worry about whether the seeds will grow or not. Coffee beans can be grown in the climate of Ningyuan County. Cocoa beans are a tropical species. Even if Ningyuan County cannot grow them, is there no place in the entire Nalan Kingdom where they can grow them
At least she knows it can still be grown in modern Hainan!
It's just that I don't know if there is Hainan here, and all the place names have changed. Looking at the map, she feels that the earth's plates are all different.
But these coffee beans and cocoa beans are of great use to her, so she has to try growing them anyway!
"Dad, look!" Wen Hou pointed in front and exclaimed.
Ahead, at the door of Tan Mansion, Tan Paner directed the servants to throw out boxes of clothes.
"Go away! Don't come to the door again! Dad is almost killed by you!" Tan Pan'er stood outside the door in mourning clothes and said in a fierce voice.
Wen Jiagui killed her husband-in-law and caused the drug store to be closed down. Why did Wen Jiagui come back and occupy the Tan family
no way!
After saying that, Tan Pan'er walked back, and the servants also ran back quickly and closed the door with a bang.
Mrs. Tan came back to see her father and pick up some clothes, but she didn't expect that even her father wouldn't let her see it!
She and Wen Qian stood outside the door helplessly, looking at the clothes scattered on the floor, not knowing what to do.
