  Chapter 13 Mid-Autumn Festival!

"There are 453 cash left, and the 400 is kept by the elder brother. You don't need to save too much on daily expenses. I will give my mother and eldest sister a dozen or twenty cash every day when I come back, and I will add it slowly. Let them know that the family has income every day, so they can feel at ease. .”

  Cao Xin gave most of his wealth to his elder brother.

   "I'm the big brother—"

  Cao Ren received the money, his face turned pale.

   "Brother! Don't think too much!"

   "If I earned this money outside by working hard, you are embarrassed to take it and talk about it. But how I got this money, brother knows best—"

  Cao Xin turned his little hand over to his elder brother.

  The eldest brother takes his younger brother’s money to support the family and spend, and he still spends his eight-year-old brother’s money. Under normal circumstances, he is naturally embarrassed.

   But Cao Xin, what is the situation?

  He can 'create something out of nothing', he has 'a world in his sleeve'.

   This is a fairy method!

  Cao Ren is the big brother, what's the matter with getting some light? !

"Snapped!"

   "It's my elder brother's mistake!"

   "The ancients also said that if one person attains the Tao, the chicken and dog will ascend to heaven."

   "I can be regarded as being honored by our little fairy."

  Cao Ren slapped his forehead and turned the corner, and couldn't help laughing when he thought about what he had just thought.

   One thought of heaven and earth is wide.

   He generously collected the money.

  The two brothers talked and laughed, and rushed home.

  Cao Xin’s main task of buying chickens today was fulfilled as he wished, and the Wuguan also went to see it, and bought 350 catties of reserve grain to store in the original fairyland.

  I also placed an order for the iron ball, just waiting to pick it up.

  For most of the day, I did a lot of things.

  However, due to the shortage of money and silver, Cao Xin still has a lot of things he wanted to buy but did not buy.

   Such as sickle, hoe, shovel, guillotine and other cast iron agricultural tools, as well as bamboo agricultural tools such as poles, baskets, dustpans, brooms, and baskets.

   These are not bought for home use, but placed in the original fairyland, which can be used for plowing and hoeing.

  If money is in hand, you can buy three or five sets and put them in the original fairyland, which is not too much.

More than these.

   There are also woodworking utensils such as axes, saws, planers, files, chisels, rulers, ink fountains, and sandpaper. They may not seem many, but each has a lot of styles.

   Like a plane—

Joint planer, flat planer, double planer, net planer, various clear planers, large line planer, small line planer, small planer, convex planer, various cutting planers, double line planer, single line planer, notch planer, Single slot planer, clear slot planer, double slot planer, various wire planers.

  With only one plane, there are dozens of subdivisions.

  Others include saws, chisels, etc., long, short, large, small, round, flat, square, and so many other types that the number of laymen cannot be counted.

  It is not easy to get a complete set, and it costs a lot of money.

   Once assembled, this is a family heirloom, a carpenter's life.

   There are many trees in the original fairyland, and sooner or later they will have to cut down a lot. For such carpenter's tools, it is best for Cao Xin to prepare three or five sets of them, which is also a huge expense.

  Other—

   Pots and pans, kitchen knives and shovels, spoons, chopping board steamers, bottles and cans, large and small vats...

Too much too much!

   Chicken bits and pieces!

  This does not include furniture and household items such as tables, chairs, benches, beds, bedding, bedding pillows, etc.

  But if you want to be able to hide in the "prime fairyland" under extreme circumstances and be self-sufficient, it is best to have all these daily necessities, large and small, or even prepare several sets.

   Cao Xin made a list of these things, but it is obviously difficult to complete them in a short time.

  Money is one aspect.

   Too many types is also one aspect.

   You have to take your time.

  …

"The world suffers from gnats, but there are no gnats in Du Ma Xing Street in Western Province. Those who live on Ma Xing Street are the places where Xijing night market and restaurants are very prosperous. Gnats are evil, and Ma Xing people are noisy, and the lights shine on the sky, so let's stop at three o'clock. , so we will never get rid of gnats.”

  …

   The origin of the name 'Maxing Street Market' is unknown, but there is no doubt that this is the most prosperous place in the entire Xijing City and even the entire Daliang.

  In modern times, it may be called 'commercial street'.

   This street is winding and winding, connecting the small half of the northern city. Entering from the four city gates in the north, you can go straight to the street, all the way to the imperial city.

   Night fell and the lights were bright.

  Lanterns are hung in front of the shops along the street, and the lighting facilities built by the government will illuminate the Ma Xing Market, which stretches for more than 20 miles, like daytime.

  The atmosphere became hot all of a sudden.

   "A lot of delicious food!"

  Cao Xian is wearing new clothes today, looking left and right with his eyes, he can't see it!

The roadside stalls are a sight to behold. Rotary fried lamb sausage, dried bream, frozen fish head, **** bean, mozang, red shredded, batch-cut sheep's head, spicy ginger, spicy radish, all kinds of snacks make people drool .

There are also cool foods in summer, such as hemp tofu, chicken skin mochi drink, fine powder vegetarian sticks, sugar ice cold balls, crystal soap, raw pickled water papaya, medicinal papaya, chicken head rice, sugar mung bean licorice ice cold water , lychee paste, mustard melons, pickles, apricot slices, plum ginger, lettuce, bamboo shoots, mustard, spicy melons, fine-grained scorpions, fragrant candy seeds, candied lychees, yuemei, perilla paste, gold Some silk party plums and fragrant orange pills are sold loosely, and some are packed in plum red boxes for sale.

   "Sister, eat this."

  Cao Xin bought a serving of shatang ice and snow cold balls, and handed Cao Xian a box of Xiangtangzi with a fawning face.

  My elder sister is too hot-tempered, and I still remember the thing about making fun of her with lantern riddles in the morning, and I haven’t paid any attention to Cao Xin since I came home. Cao Xin is generous as a younger brother, and buys snacks for Cao Xian out of his own pocket.

   "Spending money again!"

Cao Xian glared at Cao Xin, but he was honest in his hands. He took the shatang ice snow cold **** and the fragrant candy dumplings, first gave Cao Zhangshi and Cao Liang a bite, and then passed two pieces to the elder brother, and then hesitated for a while. , and stuffed another piece to Cao Xin, and then he ate it by himself with a smile.

   Cao Xin looked funny.

   This side.

  Little Cao Liang was eating delicious food, and he was also looking left and right, dazzled, and when he came to a restaurant, his eyes widened: "Look! Look! There are so many lanterns!"

  Cao Xin looked up—

   Whoo!

   Indeed a lot!

  A huge restaurant, five stories high, with wooden frames outside, and five floors of lanterns, more than a hundred. Each lantern is written with words, and each is a lantern riddle—

   "If you answer the riddles on the lower three floors correctly, you can take away the corresponding lantern."

   "If you answer the lantern riddle on the fourth floor correctly, you can get a jar of craft beer from my Tianjia restaurant."

   "Answer the riddles on the fifth floor correctly, please enter the private room, and you can drink and eat as you like."

   Guess the lantern riddles!

   This is old tradition!

  Cao Xin took a look, and found that the fourth and fifth floors were indeed much more difficult than the lower three floors, and he couldn't answer many of them.

   But the lower three floors are much simpler.

   "Small feet, tall legs. Wear a red hat, white robe, guess an animal."

   "This is 'red-crowned crane'."

   "Water will not work, guess a word."

   "Yan."

  Cao Xin pushed Cao Xian and Cao Liang, Cao Xian blushed and answered one question correctly, and Cao Liang shouted a broken voice and answered one question correctly.

  The family prostituted two lanterns for nothing, and they were so happy from ear to ear.

   This kind of small limelight is not enviable, but also makes the family happy, Cao Xin is happy to do it.

  The lantern riddles on the fourth and fifth floors, although the rewards are more lucrative, but many people know that they are for scholars, and if their muddy legs answer a question correctly, the scene will definitely not look good.

  Cao Xin was not greedy for this cheap, took two lanterns and left, contented and happy.

"so big!"

   "So bright!"

  Cao Xian and Cao Liang held the lanterns, very excited.

   Cao Zhang is also laughing.

  Big brother Cao Ren pulled Cao Xin and whispered: "Little Wu, you are so smart, why don't you go to school and become an official in the future."

  After ten years of hard work, no one asked, and became famous all over the world in one fell swoop!

  In this era, studying and being an official have always been the most respectable and promising.

  Cao Ren felt that with his younger brother's ingenuity, it might not be impossible to pass the Jinshi examination and honor his ancestors.

but-

"never mind!"

   "I can't pass the exam."

   Cao Xin shook his head.

  Studying and imperial examinations are far from as simple as imagined. The ten-year cold window is not a lie, it is not what he wants. Moreover, as soon as he entered the officialdom, he was shackled by a layer of shackles. It was too aggrieved to move around within the rules of these people.

  The song is flattering.

  Official senior level crushes people to death.

   This is not what Cao Xin wants.

  Rather than taking the imperial examinations, becoming an official, and running around like dogs, it is better to practice martial arts to strengthen your body, live freely, and live a long life.

  With the help of the 'Bronze Immortal Gate', maybe he can also enter Taoism from martial arts, and become immortal from Fan Dengxian, and he will live forever.

   "Don't read?"

   "Then what do you want to do in the future?"

  Cao Ren felt it was a pity.

   "Practice martial arts."

   "Study medicine."

  Cao has a plan in his heart.
