Chapter 1264 If it weren’t for avoiding suspicion, I’d let you pick first
But Ye Yuran knew that the other party would agree to let them get on the carriage, so he must have inquired about it in advance.
As a fleet, they often help their owners transport goods. If something goes wrong with the goods, they will be punished.
So, how could they not find out who the hitchhiker was?
However, there are two types of hitchhikers, one is reported to the host, and the other is not reported.
The former is a kind of personal connection, and maybe you can get some reward money from the owner's family; the latter is to earn free rides, and if you don't report it, the money will naturally be divided by the team itself.
Who doesn’t want to make some extra money after being away from home for many years?
With such a smile on his face and the fact that he personally took action, this shopkeeper Gao obviously classified Ye Yuran and his party into the first category.
Ye Yuran remained calm, with a smile on her lips, as if she was really a proud country woman. She showed off her little son to shopkeeper Gao in a somewhat ostentatious manner, saying how good he was in reading, and how good he was at studying.
All the other students are inferior to each other, and I am unique in the world, otherwise I would not be admitted as a scholar.
Balabala, I made a lot of hypocritical and exaggerated boasts, which were both true and false.
While she was talking, Shopkeeper Gao was also evaluating the opponent's potential and whether it was worth betting in advance.
Following Ye Yuran's words, he also praised Zhu Qi. He could tell at a glance that her Lao Qi had an extraordinary temperament and an air of style. He was definitely not an ordinary person.
He also said that he would definitely be a high-ranking official in the future.
As a country woman, she doesn't have much knowledge, so naturally she wants others to praise her more, so that she becomes so happy that her tail is almost raised.
Zhu Qi was a little dumbfounded: "..."
——Mom, is it me you’re talking about?
——Why do you feel so weird?
Zhu San: "..."
——I said why I am so "cunning", it turns out it was inherited from my mother.
——Look, my mother’s acting skills are much better than mine.
——Well, I have to study again.
What kind of future will a scholar who knows how to read have a vain wife and a brother who is so proud that he has passed the examination?
Shopkeeper Gao originally wanted to place a bet, but after a few back and forth, he lost his mind.
Although he was not a big shot, because he helped his master's family with errands, he traveled around a lot and met a lot of people.
The lower you are at the bottom, the easier it is for people to raise their tails, and they often do not achieve much success.
At first, he heard Brother Bao praise the Zhu family so much and asked about some things about the Zhu family. He really felt that this family was worth considering.
Unexpectedly, I only found out when I came into contact with him. What, it was just a rumor spread by the world, and it was just exaggerated.
After that, Shopkeeper Gao never showed up again.
While eating, while the people in the convoy were not paying attention, Zhu San asked quietly: "Mom, did you know what this shopkeeper Gao had in mind, so did you do this on purpose?"
Ye Yuran raised his eyes, looked around, and said, "It's not cheap for him to charge us for a ride."
Zhu San was puzzled.
"I'll tell you more about it when we get there."
When Zhu San heard what his mother said, he stopped.
As shopkeeper Gao stopped running towards them, the treatment they were able to enjoy also dropped by a notch.
Zhu San is not stupid. The fleet is just that big. If there is any slight disturbance, would Manager Gao know about it?
I'm afraid, it wasn't the people below who did it themselves, but what he explained.
With such double-dealing, Zhu San vaguely understood why his mother didn't "fall in love" with Shopkeeper Gao and win over this person.
However, he thought about it and couldn't figure out where his mother came from. Shopkeeper Gao is a bad person.
The convoy stopped and went, and more than half a month passed.
When they arrived at Pushou City, it was already the afternoon after lunch.
Shopkeeper Gao put down their luggage and drove away on the grounds that he had to rush to exchange goods.
Zhu San looked at the retreating figure of the convoy and shook his head: "Mom, you still have a sharp eye, you can tell at a glance that this kind of person is unreliable."
"I don't know if he is reliable or not. I only know one truth. Everyone in the world is interested in profit. If he didn't think it was profitable, he wouldn't be so attentive to us in the beginning." Ye Yuran said.
Zhu San turned his head: "Mom, didn't you say before that you would tell me when you got to town? Now that you're here, isn't it time to tell me?"
"We should quickly find a place to stay now, right?" Ye Yuran reminded him and said, "Look at the sky, if we don't find a place to stay before dark, we will have to sleep on the street. I don't know Pushou.
Whether the urban management is strict or not, if there is a curfew, it will be a bit miserable for people like us who have no place to stay."
The so-called curfew means that at a certain point in time, no one is allowed to walk on the streets except the patrol officers.
Of course, if you are a well-connected and wealthy family, it is not impossible to get some warrant from the official and go out to do some urgent business.
It just depends on what this "big family" does.
"Mother..." Zhu San was a little helpless.
It was obviously just a sentence. Before, his mother was afraid that others would hear her, but now she still refused to say it. Did she not plan to tell him?
However, Ye Yuran had already picked up something and walked away. He had no choice but to take the remaining things with him and quickly ask Zhu Qi to follow.
Zhu Qi was carrying his own bookcase and carrying some in his hands, but he was younger and most of them were on Zhu San's body.
Carrying such large and small bags quickly attracted the attention of a group of children, who ran over quickly in ragged clothes.
"Auntie, do you want someone to lead the way? I only need money for a meat bun."
"Auntie, choose me. I speak eloquently. There is nothing in Pushou City that I don't know about."
"Auntie, let me show you the way. I know Pushou City the best. If you want to stay in the cheapest inn, choose the most comfortable house, or where you want to go shopping, there is nothing I don't know."
…
They crowded over, all talking and promoting themselves.
Zhu Qi was shocked when he saw this formation for the first time.
Zhu San was also afraid that these children would hit his mother and brother, so he quickly stood in front of them: "Go, go, we don't want anything, stay away from us."
A fierce look.
Although the children wanted to steal the business, seeing how fierce he was, they felt a little timid and left in a hurry.
Ye Yuran noticed that there was a child whose clothes were washed very clean. He did not rush over like them, but stood a few steps away, standing honestly.
He was naturally frightened by Zhu San's fierceness, but he still mustered up the courage: "Hello! Is this your first time coming to Pushou City? If it is your first time, you'd better find someone
Those who lead the way, otherwise they are likely to encounter bad merchants and be severely slaughtered."
Seeing how polite he was, Ye Yuran hugged Zhu San, who was trying to coax others, and waved to him.
He glanced at Zhu San with some fear and took two steps forward, but still kept his distance: "Auntie, please tell me."
