Chapter 315 What is a guilty conscience? I don't!
Dou Weiyi had noticed the commotion earlier and saw Lin Xi looking at them with distrust.
This feeling made him feel guilty and flustered!
He quickly coughed lightly and nimbly helped load the goods.
They worked until midnight before finally loading all 40,000 jin of cured meat onto the ship.
After loading the boat, Dou Weiyi took a detour on her way home and went to the courtyard house again.
“Sister-in-law, our boat is going to Jiangnan tomorrow. Could you pack some local specialties for me so I can test the waters?”
If the response is good, next time we'll bring some preserved eggs, blood tofu, and the sausages you made a few days ago to sell!
Oh, and pack me two jars of pickled duck too, hehe, just in case they sell well!
As for soy sauce and vinegar, the two of them made very little because of the bad weather.
Otherwise, Dou Weiyi would definitely have shamelessly insisted on bringing some along.
Lin Xi may not understand business, but she does understand regional tastes, so she immediately retorted, "Forget about sausages, they prefer sweet ones over there. Spicy and savory ones sell better in Shuzhou Prefecture."
"Shuzhou Prefecture? Right, how come I didn't think of that!"
After Lin Xi's reminder, Dou Weiyi suddenly realized the truth.
We should go south, but we shouldn't overlook the west either!
Moreover, the Shu Prefecture in the west is a wealthy place. It has nothing but plenty of silver!
Seeing Dou Weiyi's disdainful attitude towards money, Gao Mengli sighed inwardly.
It's a real pity that Dou Weiyi isn't a merchant.
Finally, Dou Weiyi, with a full basket on his back and two jars in his arms, ran to the Wangyue Village dock, completely satisfied.
The next day.
As soon as the sky was light enough to see one's fingers clearly, the man with missing teeth, along with Fatty, Buck-toothed Jade, and Qian Yan'er, boarded a boat and left.
When Bucktooth Yu was leaving, Dou Zhan wanted to go with her.
They claimed that he was highly skilled in martial arts, and that with him around, the bandits would never dare to come and rob them.
Seeing Dou Zhan's worthless expression, Dou Wei quickly closed her eyes.
It's so disgusting, so unbearable.
In the days following the cargo ship's departure, the village remained largely unchanged.
That day, Gao Mengli and A Li were changing the water in the seedling nursery.
Yang Qing rushed in from outside: "Sister-in-law, come with me to the village entrance quickly, there's a commotion outside!"
Gao Mengli frowned: "What? Cause trouble?"
Are there still people in Wangyue Village who dare to cause trouble? They must be tired of living, tough, and resilient.
Yang Qing nodded: "Yes, it's a middle-aged couple, and they're throwing a tantrum at the village entrance right now."
Upon hearing this, Gao Mengli waved her hand and said, "Just have the bandits throw them far away. If they don't know what's good for them, beat them up and throw them far away to get rid of them."
If Yang Qing doesn't recognize someone, then that person is definitely not from the village or a nearby village.
Since they are strangers, let them crawl away, throw them as far away as possible.
Yang Qing looked troubled: "My older brother said the same thing at first, but..."
Gao Mengli's gossipy nature was immediately piqued, and she looked up: "Could it be that there's more to the story?"
Lin Xi goes to the village canteen every morning. If he can't solve a problem, then it must be a tricky one.
So before Yang Qing could answer, Gao Mengli quickly turned to A Li and said, "A Li, you stay and change the water for the rice seedlings. I'll go with my third sister-in-law to the village entrance to take a look."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'm here. Go and check on things."
Ah Li took the wooden bucket from Gao Mengli and quickly nodded in agreement.
After giving her instructions, Gao Mengli followed Yang Qing and hurried towards the village entrance.
