Chapter 667: Uncle Cheng of the Drama
Uncle Cheng looked at the man who was about his age and had an extraordinary dress, and hurriedly went up to entertain him in person.
"That's potato vermicelli, please rest assured to buy it, sir. These rice are grown by ourselves on our farm. The potato vermicelli is a potato vermicelli made from ground potatoes..."
After listening to Uncle Cheng's words patiently, Lord Jialing Futai was shocked. Potatoes were even grown in the place where birds don't **** in Youzhou Fucheng!
"Ben...I've eaten potatoes once, and the taste is so good, it's unforgettable, and I want to eat it twice."
What he didn't say is that a few months ago, the commander of Jin Yiwei passed by Jialing Mansion and gave him a little.
Jialing Futai is telling the truth. He really wanted to eat potato vermicelli again, but unfortunately, within the city limits of Jialing Fu, he couldnt find it for several months.
"My surname is Chen, and I have a single name. May I ask the shopkeeper's surname?" Futai intends to befriend Cheng Sanshu.
Uncle Cheng hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "It turned out to be Mr. Chen, disrespectful...My surname is Cheng, the third child in the ranking. Everyone calls me the third child Cheng."
Uncle Cheng can't give his name, he is a convict, although the person in front of him may not remember his name.
However, Cheng Sanshu knew Chen Dong. When he was young, Cheng Sanshu and his father-in-law were the masters of the former Futai in Youzhou. He knew the names of bureaucrats in various prefectures and cities.
At that time, Chen Dong was still a champion, and was assigned by the sage to be a fellow in Jialing Mansion. Twenty years have passed.
Since Chen Dong is still in Jialing Fucheng, then he is at least an adult in Futai. Uncle Cheng, who has a plan in his heart, thinks more.
Not only could he not cause trouble for Lord Chu, but he also wanted to spread the reputation of their Xuanyan City.
He said so much just now, but he didn't just want to sell the food in Xuanyan City at a good price.
"Excuse me, sir, do you want to buy grain? We grow our own grain, so the price is relatively cheap..."
Uncle Cheng enthusiastically introduced the grain output and varieties of Xuanyan City, as well as the farm.
Chen Dong smiled like a spring breeze, and he didn't have any official airs in the government office: "I came out to buy food on purpose."
"Oh, what kind of food do you need? I have all kinds of food here, except rice, potato vermicelli, and dried meat that can be eaten as snacks. Would you like to try it?"
"Preserved meat? Is it made of pork? After the locust plague last year, in Jialing Prefecture, people want to eat pork as an extravagant hope, but you still have pork to make dried meat!"
Chen Dong sighed with emotion. The military salaries in the south were all from Youzhou, since the fall of the original Wufutai.
That surnamed Mao is actually so powerful, mainly because Chen Dong and Mao Yiming are still classmates, but not friends.
The two of them have always been, one is the first and the other is the second, and they are natural enemies.
As Chen Dong, who has been the first year old all the year round, naturally he doesn't want to go to Mao Yiming at all. If others have such achievements, he would have sent a letter to learn from it.
Uncle Cheng is full of pride in one prosperity and common prosperity, "After the plague of locusts, we also ran out of food and almost starved to death, but the court sent a group of exiles..."
Uncle Cheng learned that Chen Dong was the Lord of Jialing Futai, and he had planned it for a long time, and he took this opportunity to guide the topic step by step.
Publicized their Xuanyan City, which is what their Master Chu meant, so they kept hiding.
When they came out to exchange this time, they had to call their Xuanyan City number. Since they met Chen Dong, they would use him to spread the word.
Uncle Cheng was not guilty at all, and Chen Dong also tried his best to curry favor with them. This is the cooperation that everyone needs.
After listening to Uncle Cheng's words, Chen Dong was stunned on the spot. Rao is that he is a champion and has been a government official for more than ten years.
was also shocked that he could open his mouth to stuff an egg, "So many grains were not grown by Mao Yiming, that's great, haha..."
Uncle Cheng: "..." Lord Futai, what's your focus? Shouldn't you ask who the exiles are?
Obviously, Chen Dong, who was too happy, didn't think about that at all: "Okay, now it's my turn, first weigh out some of each of your grains, and I'll take it back and try it slowly."
"Okay, wait a moment..."
Chen Dong and Cheng Sanshu both stood there watching, both of them had little Jiujiu in their hearts, and their faces were not obvious.
Uncle Cheng's son was busy there, taking out pen and ink from time to time to record something, and then asking the man to weigh the grain.
"Manager Cheng, what is that guy doing? He looks just like you." Chen Dong asked curiously.
"That's the dog, Cheng Xianping." Uncle Cheng proudly introduced.
"You look like a talented person, is there a marriage match?" Chen Dong wanted to marry his daughter to Cheng Xianping.
"My eldest son is already engaged, and my youngest son is sixteen years old this year, and he has not yet been engaged."
Uncle Cheng thought of their Madam Chu, who was not far away, and would take the girls back to the castle with all the hard work.
He thought that in this Jialing mansion, it would be a good thing to abduct a few girls back, at least to ease Madam Chu's worries.
So Uncle Cheng raised his head and sighed and said to Chen Dong: "We have a lot of food in the castle, but there is a shortage of girls. The teenagers in our fields are all 15 to 30 years old."
"Old people always say that when a boy grows up, he will marry a daughter-in-law, and a girl will marry and have children when he grows up."
"But after the locust plague, the girls can't stand the cold and hunger, and only the young teenagers are left alive and strong. That's a miserable..."
Uncle Cheng became more and more excited as he talked, and finally even he was moved.
"Oh my God, we are all good now, don't worry about being frozen to death and starving to death, there is a lot of food in our castle that we can't finish, it's a pity! Boys are all single..."
Cheng Xianping and Yang Yulong next to and the teenagers were all happy to hear this. They never dreamed of the usually unsmiling third uncle Cheng.
It's actually this kind of Uncle Cheng. It's like playing with a stranger.
Yang Yulong asked Cheng Sanshu with his eyes: You can't do this, don't forget the rules of our castle.
Even if you need a girl to marry, you must follow the rules in the castle, or you will be punished by Madam Chu for violating the city rules.
Uncle Cheng blushed: "Oh, look at my memory, I forgot about this, what should I do?"
"Brother, what have you forgotten?" Chen Dong was also excited: "I see, why not."
"How is it?"
Chen Dong thought for a while and suddenly his eyes lit up: "I think the daughters of many families in our castle are very beautiful. Why don't we find a matchmaker to introduce those girls to you first."
"Is this true?" Yang Yulong doubted: "If the good girl in your castle has already been engaged, where will we get the son of Xuanyan City?"
