   "Okay, here's a copy."

  Fang Chang counted out two copper coins in his hand and handed them over.

  The other party took the money happily, put it away after looking at it, and then opened the cloth covering the bamboo baskets on both sides.

  In the bamboo baskets on both sides of the shoulder pole, one side is a large jar containing bean curd, and the other side is separated by seasoning and thick porcelain bowls and spoons.

  The bean curd seller picked up a small bowl, put the bean curd in it and said:

   "After brushing and washing, they were scalded with boiling water early in the morning. They are clean enough, so guests can use them at ease."

   Then she covered the mouth of the jar with a bamboo lid, went to the other side of the seasoning box, looked up and asked, "Do you want brown sugar bean curd or black bean curd?"

   "Hmm." Fang Chang pondered for a while, and then took out two more coins: "Then get one of each." He chose to have them all.

"okay!"

Seeing the generosity of the customers, the girl selling bean curds was very happy. She hurriedly added seasonings to the bowl, took out a horse tie from the burden, opened it, and put it aside to indicate to Fang Chang that he could sit and eat. Fang Chang was not polite and sat down. On top, served with bean curd to taste.

   Just like the one just sold, the hot bean curd is very tender and white as cream.

  Brown sugar bean curd is only made of brown sugar, which is a little expensive compared to granulated sugar, so it is often not offered at such small stalls. After all, the consumption level is not high, and it will lose money if it cannot be sold.

  The tempeh douhua is slightly richer, with two tablespoons of tempeh, a few dried soybeans, and a few drops of sesame oil. Even after seeking Fang Chang's opinion, the other party sprinkled some green coriander powder into it as a garnish. The other party also said that if you want some more vinegar, you can also ask for it.

   "The workmanship is good." Sitting on the Maza, Fang Chang praised while eating.

"As long as the customer likes it." The other party thanked the other party, and then began to chat, "The beans are all selected this year, washed and soaked in advance, and then ground overnight. This is physical work, and my husband has to turn the grinder every day. In the middle of the night, and then I fell asleep tired early in the morning, and I will pick them out and sell them."

   "How is the sale? How many people are buying?" Fang Chang asked casually.

"Fortunately, I can always sell a few copies along the way, and the rest can be sold out in front of the earth temple." The girl selling bean curd said, "there are so many people there, maybe it is also the blessing of the land grandma, who is always worry-free." Selling. It’s worth the tiring, otherwise, with the level of exhaustion of making bean curds, it’s better to switch to selling ice powder.”

   After Fang Chang finished eating, he handed over the bowl and spoon, and the other party quickly caught it and carefully put it back into the basket.

  Then she folded up the mat, put it back on the burden, squatted down and picked it up, and walked towards the earth temple in the town.

  Hearing that it was very lively there, Fang Chang was going to have a look, looking for some simple and handy gifts.

   There are indeed many people here in the Earth Temple.

However, the stalls are very messy, and most of them are small stalls for purchasing mountain products. Villagers from ten miles and eight townships have to go here to exchange their things for money, and by the way, buy some daily utensils, food, cloth and other things around. , take it back for use.

  So in addition to buying a large number of small stalls here, there are also many small shops selling food, drinks, cotton and linen, shoes, socks, hats, belts, button thimbles, non-staple food and snacks. Fang Chang turned around a few times, but couldn't find anything suitable.

  Walking around, he arrived at the gate of the Earth Temple. Fang Chang looked up at the plaque.

  Perhaps because of the richness of the land of Shu, the earth temple here is very grand, with a wide depth and a small courtyard, golden statues, and a few dishes of tributes that are very fresh.

   On the other hand, there are two fortune-telling and document writing stalls next to them. It seems that the local demand is not small, and the business is very good.

  Since they have all arrived at the door, it is impossible not to visit them.

  Fang Chang lightly cast a small magic spell.

  After a lot of practice, now he has a good control over the control and effect of this spell.

  So the land in the Earth Temple only feels like being greeted gently.

  She was startled immediately, and quickly cast her gaze outside.

   After searching twice, she found the figure in the corner there, who was dressed in white and carried a long sword behind his back.

   So Tutu hurriedly adjusted his appearance, and after repeated confirmation, he moved his foot lightly and walked out of the Tudi Temple: "This celestial being, please come in and talk."

   "Excuse me." Fang Chang walked in, and put down a small bag of bacon in his hand, as a simple gift.

   "Shangxian, please sit down, I don't know where you came from, how do you call it?" After finishing speaking, Chenghuang walked to the side and started to boil water to make tea.

   "Chang below is a practitioner of the Central Plains. Not long ago, he went to the Western Regions. When he was about to return to the Central Plains via Guanzhong, he was attracted by the natural dangers of the Shu Road, so he came here for a visit." Fang Chang laughed.

  The movement of boiling water in Tutu’s hand paused slightly, she pondered for a moment, and said:

   "Could it be that you are the rumored 'Immortal of the Mountains in the Clouds'? I can see you today, and you really shine." Granny Land laughed.

   "Well, you know me?"

  Fang Chang was slightly surprised and asked.

   "Of course, the Tianxia Mountain God and Land City God is a family. Although they need to perform their respective duties and dare not walk too far, as people of the same kind, they actually communicate with each other a lot, and many things spread very quickly."

   "So it is."

  Fang Chang thought for a while and nodded in agreement.

  Although what he did before was not obvious to the people, it was difficult to hide it from the local officials, so Fang Chang had no choice but to state those previous experiences again, telling the land in front of him.

   This also earned a few applause from the opposite land.

  Fang Chang came to visit, but there was no clear purpose, so the topic between the two escaped and changed quickly. From the general trend of the world, to the harvests of nearby prefectures and counties this year, and even the operation status of the small market outside the door, the way the county government manages similar small markets, and so on.

  Fang Chang even asked about the situation of Bainiaoya.

  Tu Di smiled and said, "I have had some contacts, but not many. It can be seen that he is a regular monk. Why, Shangxian is going to visit Bainiaoya?"

"That's right." Fang Chang said with a smile, "That is the destination of my journey this time. I met the two apprentices of the three masters and apprentices before, and they communicated with each other, and then they invited me to come A while. This trip to the south is precisely to go to Bainiaoya."

   Coming out of the Earth Temple, it was already approaching noon.

  The young woman who came to sell bean curds with a load in the morning had already sold out all the stock in the pole. Then she cleaned her feet to make a living, put the bowls and spoons back into the pole, and picked up the pole to go home.

   Instead, they set off from the surrounding villages early in the morning. At this time, the number of people who came to the town began to gradually increase. Therefore, the small market in front of the land temple is more prosperous. The common people sold out the goods in their hands, got the money in their hands, and went to their favorite shops to buy the things they had already looked forward to.
