The sun is shining, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.

Almost back home, Sharo felt that everything around him was so comfortable and pleasant. Everything at home was better than that outside, whether it was flowers, plants, insects, birds, or even cow dung in the rice fields on the roadside, the smell was much better than that in other places.

As the daughter of a traveler, Sharo has followed her father since she was a child. Although she is only seventeen years old now, she has been to at least eight countries.

She has been a member of the caravan since she was eight years old, responsible for accounting and logistics management. Now nine years have passed. Her reputation in the caravan is close to her father and is the real second-in-command in the caravan.

Every time an outsider is doing business, the caravan will wander outside for about a year, then return to his hometown, rest for two months, and set off again.

Ah! My hometown Tonggu City, I will be back soon. Mom and brother, you must be fine.

Saro sat above the goods, looking greedily at the scenery on both sides of the road. Every wanderer who had been away from home for a long time could smell the smell of his hometown on his way home. With this smell, they could know how far they were from their hometown.

The name of this caravan is "Salou's Blue Star Flower". Yes, it is named after Salou. This is the owner of the caravan, that is, Salou's father. When his daughter was born, he happily changed the original ordinary caravan name to its current appearance, which sounded quite artistic.

Opposite to Salo, a young man sat. He threw four apples and performed his acrobatics, which made Salo chuckled.

Saluo is a very cute woman. She is not pretty, but lively and naughty. She is very popular among young men in the caravan. Many people often learn a lot of tricks to make her happy, but even so, Saluo never said who she likes and has always loved herself. Although she loves to laugh, she never showed any ambiguity to any man.

Seeing the admirer on the other side playing acrobatics, Sharo's heart flew back home. I don't know if my younger brother is still not so naughty, nor do I know if my mother has become fat again... When I think of the things at home, Sharo is always very happy.

Just when she was happiest, the entire caravan stopped.

This caravan has more than twenty donkeys. When moving forward in a row on the road, the distance between the head and the tail of the team is a bit far away, so generally speaking, those at the tail of the team will not know what happened before.

And on the journey, it is probably a great thing to stop the caravan.

Almost everyone picked up weapons and looked ahead with a serious expression. Because the distance was a bit far, they could vaguely see that the donkey cart in the front seemed to be blocked by something.

Sharo reached into her clothes with her right hand, clenched the dagger, and then she jumped out of the truck and trotted towards the front of the caravan.

As she got closer and closer to the front of the team, Saro felt that the atmosphere ahead was not serious. She took a few more steps and then found that although the caravan was blocked, it was not because there were robbers robbing. It was because someone was negotiating with his father.

Just next to the road in front of the caravan, there is a stone house. On the stone wall of the house, the words "toll station" are written in Holevin.

From the stone house, a magic light road blocked it and blocked the road. Sharo leaned over and heard a man in the stone house wearing a white background and gold-edged man who looked like a priest was talking to his father: "The road was repaired by our temple, so we naturally have the right to charge road maintenance fees. We do not charge ordinary pedestrians, but carriages and donkeys carrying carts must be charged. After all, your car has something heavy and will cause some harm to the road surface. We are responsible for maintenance and it also requires money."

"Then can we not pay the fee? After all, it is not easy for us to make some money." The owner of the caravan, Sharo's father, bargained: "Or we can pay less."

"If you want to get on the road, you have to pay money, one horse and two copper coins." The priest in the stone room said impatiently: "If you don't pay the money, it turns out that the road is right next to you, and you can walk through it."

Sharo followed the pastor's hand and found that there was indeed a road on the left. She vaguely remembered that when they left a year ago, they did come out of this detour. At that time, many people walked on this road, but now, the grass on this road is growing as high as someone. There is only a yellow path in the middle, which can only be passed by for people personally. It is impossible for a donkey cart to pass.

Then Saro saw his father paying the money in pain.

Their caravan had twenty-four donkey carts, which means that my father handed over forty-eight copper coins. The money was not too much, but when he was approaching his hometown, he was knocked on a "scammer" like this, and anyone would feel a little unhappy.

When Sharo saw that it was not a robber, she breathed a sigh of relief. She jumped to the donkey cart closest to her and sat down.

The priest in the stone house made a strange gesture, and the blue magic light column blocking the road disappeared, and the caravan continued to set off.

After the donkey cart that Sharo was sitting in drove past the stone house, she suddenly discovered that in front of her was a gray stone slab avenue. From her personal perspective, this flat stone slab avenue could drive at least ten donkey carts side by side!

Everyone in the caravan looked at the road and lost their voices. After a while, Sharo sighed: "What a big deal, no wonder every donkey cart needs to charge money. If it were me, I would have to increase the price at least twice. When will the city lord Greenton be so rich?"

From the perspective of a businessman, the waste of money is definitely not low to build such an exaggerated road. It is impossible to recover the cost of this road by relying on the charge of two copper coins per carriage, and it is impossible for at least fifty years.

The donkey cart was driving on the flat stone road, and the swaying feeling of the past disappeared, and even the speed was much faster.

Soon the caravan arrived at Tonggu City Gate, where there were endless crowds of people.

While the caravan was waiting for the inspection to enter the city, Sharo always felt that the people entering and leaving the city gate seemed to be a little different from what he had thought before. But she couldn't say what was different about coming. After a while, several city guards who were responsible for checking the safety of goods checked the donkey carts and let them go expressionlessly.

After entering the city gate, Saluo and the caravans were once again surprised, because the roads in the entire city were repaired, and the black and white plaid stone slab street gave people a beautiful feeling. And most importantly, Saluo could hardly see any garbage on the street, and the whole city was so clean that it was surprising.

clean?

Salo clapped her hands suddenly, and she finally knew why she felt something was wrong in front of her... Almost all the pedestrians in Tonggu City were very clean, and even wearing shabby clothes, they were washed clean.

What happened to Tonggu City this year?

In the past, Tonggu City, except for the rich areas, traces of urination and defecation could be seen everywhere in other places, but now, replaced by beautiful stone slab Avenue, and many places have been repaired. She remembered that as soon as she entered the right side of the city gate, there was a slum there. As long as she passed there, she could see a lot of short mud houses, and the disgusting smell of shit and urine rushing out.

But when she passed there just now, she only saw a clean stone path and a neat and beautiful white stone house.

Even the slums have changed. What happened in Tonggu City this year and what have they missed?

The caravan entered the trade market in the city center, and soon acquaintances came over and cleared their goods. Only three cars of ignition stones were left without anyone asking for it.

In the past, the flint was not worried about sales, but why no one wanted it now? When Sharo asked inquired, it turned out that not long ago, the city lord Greenton discovered a valley rich in flint at more than 30 kilometers away from the city. So now the price of flint in Tonggu City has been greatly reduced, and the caravans' three cars of flint can't be sold.

Although there are some regrets, Saluo is not very difficult to love. This is how it is to do business, with both profit and loss. This time they have been doing business everywhere for more than a year and have made a lot of money. The losses of Sanche Shield are nothing to them.

After placing the donkey cart with the old customer, Saro and his father returned home with a heart-warming return.

Although Saro and his father have made a lot of money over the years, they do not have any prominent identities, so they can only live in civilian areas.

After returning home, Sharo first expressed his longing with his ecstatic mother. After a long time, he gave way to his father and let him hide aside and be intimate.

Then she searched the whole house but didn't see her brother. She thought he was going out to play again. She muttered dissatisfiedly, and then saw that her brother's room was very messy, so she started to clean and organize it for him.

When she finished tidying up the room, it was already dark. When she left the room, she happened to see her younger brother coming back from outside.

When he saw his sister, his younger brother seemed very happy. If it were in the past, he would definitely rush over and pick up his sister and circle hard, but this time he seemed very steady. He just smiled happily and said, "Sister, you are back!"

Saro was a little disappointed about this, thinking that his younger brother had grown up and knew that there was a difference between men and women.

Then she saw her younger brother holding a book in his hand, and she was extremely curious: "Harris, have you actually read a book? Mother helped you hire a text teacher?"

Harris raised the book in his hand and said proudly: "Sister, I am a junior student at Woking Academy now. Not to mention words, I am now a professional."

Sharo burst into laughter: "You naughty monkey? A professional? You have to find someone more reliable when you talk big."

However, Harris stretched out his right hand without any haste. After a while, an orange ball of fire flipped in his hand, emitting a ray of heat from moxibustion.
