C9 First Come to Meet the Wicked

Su Zhi was sure that Zhao Jin knew who the buyer was, but for some reason, he didn't want to say it out loud.

The wedding had been like the days before, her only child's bed and Zhao Jin's wooden bed. Both of them seemed to be used to it and neither of them had any objections to this arrangement.

She didn't want to give her body to a man she didn't know well. And the handsome young scholar certainly didn't want to sleep in the same bed with her.

After a brief period of disappointment, Su Zhi promptly changed the topic, saying that since this road had been broken, they couldn't let it slide and would have to find another way.

Thinking that she could recover from the shock so quickly, the young scholar who used to only play with his pen took the initiative and said, "Since the mountain has not been sealed yet due to the heavy snowfall in Mount Buddha, I might as well follow Lee Dazhuang and go back to hunt!"

Let's not talk about borrowing Doctor Lu's silver taels, since it was New Year's Eve, he should have a new year's money.

No one objected to this, except Madam Zhao, who warned him to study diligently, and that he would definitely have to take the test for the next two months.

Zhao Jin agreed softly, and the mother and son chatted about other things.

Su Zhi was not interested in listening, so she lowered her head to think about the prices she knew more or less well.

There was no inflation or deflation, and the prices were also very stable. According to what she had heard, one tael of silver could buy two stones, which meant that two and a half copper could buy one catty of rice and thirteen copper could buy one catty of pork.

Counting the 45 taels of silver she had now, in addition to the 5 taels of silver she now had, it was about 95 taels of gold. Even though she could last a little longer, she wasn't satisfied!

Not to mention anything else, just this flowery cotton jacket of hers was enough to make her despise him. It was hard and heavy, yet it didn't keep him warm.

The knife-like wind was cutting at her body. It was extremely cold!

Therefore, the thing she wanted to do the most right now was to get some warm clothes to wear, and for this reason, everyone's clothes were not considered warm, so she could not just take care of herself, she had to get one for each of them. But the cotton and cloth here were not cheap, if she wanted to store five pieces of clothes, she would need at least one or two taels of silver.

Even if one doesn't eat or drink, this is only a tenth of it. Tsk tsk …

She wanted to work hard and thought that there was nothing good to develop in this mountain village, so she suggested following Zhao Jin to the town tomorrow, perhaps she could find a project that could earn money.

Zhao Jin and Madam Zhao had been together with her for so long, they had a strange kind of trust in her ability, so they didn't object!

The next day was a bit hazy, so Su Zhi got up and roughly cleaned up.

It was really hard for him to not show any displeasure in front of her honor. So, thinking about it, she even asked!

Zhao Jin had just finished reading the book and passed by her side. When he heard her words, he looked at her unbearable face and his face immediately turned completely red, but his eyes did not move at all: "Sage's words, appearances are just external things. Anyone who is truly wise should not be enchanted by the external appearances!"

After a long and serious speech, the elegant scholar looked at her with a serious expression. He even grabbed her hand with an intention to move her. "You're a good girl. You don't have to suffer for your own matters!"

Su Zhi's body trembled. She was shocked by Zhao Jin's words. In fact, she had been trying to figure out Zhao Jin's worries.

But touching the rough skin at the waist of the bucket gave birth to a feeling of weight loss.

It was only now that she had to deal with the matter of being fed. With the formula for losing weight in her head and her strong willpower, she believed that one day she would break out of her cocoon and become a butterfly.

Thinking about this, the two of them embarked on the road towards Zhushan Town!

Zhushan Town was about five kilometers away from the Nankou Village.

Aside from the largest Mount Buddha, there were practically no tall mountain ranges here. Outside of the town, there were also some water rivers flowing through the Nankou Village, coiling around like long snakes as they coiled, giving off a rather imposing vibe.

Zhao Jin thought about how Su Zhi hadn't come and wanted to take her for a stroll around the town, but she dismissed him with the reason that he had a lot of tasks to do, saying that this town wasn't big and square, that she definitely wouldn't get lost. Zhao Jin also instructed her to remember the Wen Xuan Book Bureau well, and as long as she didn't know the direction, he would ask.

Back then, she was also a young man who loved to read books and had dreams. She was young, beautiful, had a small career, and also had a boyfriend who was good to her.

Alas, the past was unbearable to look back on, there was no point in mentioning it!

The Wen Xuan Book Bureau that Zhao Jin had just gone to was on Scholar Street near the City God Temple. In addition to the book department, there were also things that sold ink, paper, and gold, and even stone. Next to that was the commercial street of the town, with rows and rows of two-story attic shops inside.

In comparison, the more prosperous the town was, the more chance they would have to develop and see if they could seize the opportunity!

Su Zhi was thinking about her plan to get rich, but she didn't expect that she had already become a scene on the business street — a wondrous scene.

No matter how ugly the words sounded, Su Zhi was still in a good mood. Otherwise, the original owner would have already been in tears on the spot. He might have even wanted to commit suicide!

Looking at it from afar, she did not feel anything. In her hands, it was as big as half her face. She was hungry and ate it with a gulp. Although she was full, the taste was not very good.

When she thought about the pork patties she had eaten in the modern world, the Tudou sauce cakes, the brown sugar cakes, the pretzels, she felt that that was the right way to open them.

She had finished eating, but there was still a family at home, so she bought four more, told the shop owner to wrap them up with oiled paper. It was warm outside, but she was afraid that the cold would cause her to harden her taste.

Su Zhi had a strong sense of direction, so she quickly found where Zhao Jin was. She thought that he would be happy to see her bringing him some bread, so he couldn't help but feel happy.
