After marrying sick Yangzi, I made my whole family rich
Chapter 105 Buying a Horse
When Lu Shi returned to Zhengqing Medical Center, Xu Mengxiao had already left for Taoyuan Township. Of course, she had changed back into her own clothes.
"Business has indeed gotten worse, but it's not bad. Now we can get six to seventy taels every day."
Sixty-seven taels, Xu Mengxiao also has more than 20 taels. Taoyuan Township has a harvest every quarter, and then he will have thousands of taels, which is not very exciting.
"But at this time, you can check the storefronts in Fucheng first, so as not to be unable to prepare in time when you really need to use it."
Lin Gui still felt that opening a branch would be too fast, but in awe of Xu Mengxiao's status as his master, he did not raise any objections.
When the time comes, her cousin will naturally come to her to discuss it.
"Has Tianxiang Tower done anything recently?"
"No." It's just because he didn't do anything that makes him uneasy.
"Why are you afraid of him? When the soldiers come, we will cover up the water and the earth. Pay more attention to the safety of the dishes. Keep an eye on the people below. There shouldn't be any big problems."
With her accurate words, even if Lin Gui thought so himself, he felt a lot more at ease.
Knowing that Lu Shi had probably arrived at Zhengqing Medical Center by now, Xu Mengxiao had no intention of rushing to save him.
He slowly taught Lin Gui how to cook two dishes, and then finished lunch before returning to his little home in the town.
I thought that when I got rich, I could slowly buy some household items inside, and then I changed back into men's clothes. I bought two candied haws on the road and ate some special snacks. As soon as I arrived outside the medical center, I heard Lu Shi slaughtering a pig. The wailing sound frightened many patients into not wanting to go in.
"Why haven't you come yet? Didn't I pay the medical bills? Why is it still so painful?"
This was just suppressed, but before it took root, he started to think wrongly, so that the condition was not so easy to control.
Xu Mengxiao stepped forward, inserted a few more needles without saying a word, and said quietly: "Because your heart is not sincere, and your disease knows you best. You are not sincere at all, so it hurts so much." .”
"Sincerely, I am sincere! My father refused to give it, so I spent all my own money. Doctor Shen, this is the medical fee for you, please keep it quickly!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Shi felt much more comfortable and his eyes widened instantly.
This is really the case! ?
The sixth uncle looked gloomy next to him, feeling extremely embarrassed, "What did you do to my grandson!"
"Be careful, the bad behavior of people around you will also affect you." Xu Mengxiao reminded.
Lu Shi's heart tightened and he hurriedly scolded, "Be polite to Dr. Shen. She worked so hard to save me. I can't help but be grateful!"
Uncle Six was so angry that he said, "I gave her two taels of silver. She is blackmailing me!"
"Don't make any mistake. Mr. Shen will take action that no one else can ask for. Don't be ungrateful!" You know, she didn't even look at the glorious Mr. Lu!
"Two taels of consultation fee is nothing, even I don't like it." Dr. Li also said, "This person's disease may not be cured like this if someone else pays twenty taels of it."
When he heard that it was twenty taels, Uncle Six frowned.
Lu Shi was afraid that he would be in pain again, so he hurriedly dragged Uncle Six away. When he heard him cursing, he told him to shut up.
Sure enough, there was no pain along the way, but instead, I felt very comfortable.
It was just pain relief, but the disease had many other complications. Soon, Lu Shi became so weak that it was difficult to even breathe.
Later, it was difficult to open his eyelids and mouth, and various kinds of pain that were different from pain broke out in his body, making life worse than death.
Taking medicine and consulting doctors, no matter how reluctant the sixth uncle was, he couldn't watch his only grandson die. Their family's money was also being consumed rapidly, and it would bottom out in the blink of an eye.
This is a later story.
At this moment, Xu Mengxiao changed into women's clothes and went to sell Ganoderma lucidum.
Fortunately, Lingzhi took action and got another fifty taels of silver, which saved her from having to exchange and wipe it on her face all day long, and she was almost in danger of being noticed by Manager Xu.
With these fifty taels, plus the fifty more taels he had on him, Xu Mengxiao arrived at the West Market and wanted to inquire about buying a carriage.
Horses and cattle were not easily available in the countryside in this era. The former was a necessity for war, while the latter was used for farming. Even in the capital, special cattle and horse merchants would come with a team to sell them at a specific time.
Many people received the news late, and by the time they rushed there, not even a hair was left. Even some powerless people could only buy some sick and weak horses. Cows were okay, and those who moved quickly could still buy them. He is a young calf. The war at the border is tense, but there are no horses left for trading.
"Horses are hard to buy." The cattle and horse dealer in the West Market shook his head and dismissed her idea.
Fortunately, before Xu Mengxiao came, he had inquired a lot of information from Aunt Li and Lin Gui, and gave him a few taels of silver. "Please help me pay attention to it. We don't have any here, but there are some in Fucheng." It’s also done.”
The old man in khaki cloth weighed the piece of silver, which was much more generous than what others had given him, and said with a smile: "At the end of the month, there should be a group of horses brought from the horse ranch to the livestock market in Fucheng. , but you must hurry up, it’s not too early to go two or three days in advance!”
Xu Mengxiao's eyes lit up when she heard this, because she found an excuse to go to Fucheng.
"Buy a carriage?" Lu Lizheng and Lu Hai looked at each other, "Just an ordinary horse costs twenty or thirty taels."
"It's different now. Horses are very expensive, and we probably don't need a carriage, right?" They said this without any confidence. Just because they had recently built a house, they knew that it would be very convenient to have a carriage.
But if you really buy a carriage, you won't be willing to carry bricks and tiles, but you can use it for whatever items you need to buy later.
Lu Hai felt itchy, "If you buy a carriage, I can drive it. I followed you before..." He looked at Lu He and quickly moved back, "I can also ride a horse!"
When Xu Mengxiao heard about riding a horse, she was even more ready to move. She didn't know how!
"I also want to learn to ride a horse."
"You don't need to buy a carriage, I can buy one." Lu He said, a better carriage costs twenty or thirty taels, so this money can be saved.
"Then spend the money on a better horse."
Lu Li was watching several children talking excitedly to each other, and couldn't help laughing, "Then buy it, build a new house, and then buy a carriage. I'm afraid many families in the town can't compare to us today. "
"Not everyone in this town can afford a carriage." Lu Hai was proud. After the house was built, he could put the matter of teaching his disciples on the agenda.
Lu Li was about to pay part of the money, but Xu Mengxiao confiscated it, "I won't pay it in this time, just take the money from selling the Ganoderma lucidum."
It cost a lot of money to build a house, so Lu Lizheng had no choice but to say nothing, "Who can go to Fucheng to buy horses?"
"Me, of course I'll go!"
"You are too unstable, let your elder brother follow you." Lu Lizheng was always worried about his younger son doing things, so he habitually asked Lu He to follow him.
In the end, Lu He, who never refused, shook his head, "I'm afraid my body will be weighed down by running all the way, so let them go."
Xu Mengxiao looked at him in surprise.
"It's just that the journey is too long and too hard. Let me make the carriage at home while I go chop wood."
Xu Mengxiao instantly forgot about this, "Maybe I can design the carriage. You go prepare the materials first, and I'll think about how to make the carriage better."
