Chapter 28 The family bought a "bull cart"
Yu Qingqing still wanted to negotiate the price or something. After all, her family only had a little money now and they were not the kind of people who could spend lavishly.
"Yes, boss lady, can you give me a little less?" Yu Qinghai also said.
"Then let's put it this way. I'll give you one or two less. It can't be any lower." The lady boss gritted her teeth and thought, "Never mind, it's not a loss even if I make less money."
"Okay, this is for you, you can look for it." Yu Qingshu took out the twenty-liang gold ingot.
When the proprietress saw Yu Qingshu taking out the gold ingots, she stared at him without blinking, as if she was afraid that the silver would run away.
Then he took the silver very quickly, put it in his mouth and bit it hard. Yes, it was real. Then he put the ingot into his purse.
Then he found Yu Qingshu three pieces of fifty-tael silver, and the remaining six pieces of silver weighed exactly six taels.
"Dad is so nice. Now we have an ox cart. We don't have to envy others anymore."
Yu Qinghai patted the bull's head happily, and soon the bull was under his control.
"Yes, Dad, we finally have a bullock cart." At this moment, Yu Qingqing also acted like a young lady, speaking sweetly to Yu Qingshu.
"Gee! Gee! Gee!" Yu Qinghai drove the horse-drawn carriage, ready to go buy something else. Everyone sat on the ox-drawn cart, their excitement indescribable.
Walking to a place selling steamed buns, Yu Qingqing bought three steamed buns and three steamed buns, spending a total of ten coins. The few of them had a simple lunch and then continued on their way.
"Finally I can free my feet," Yu Qingqing muttered to herself. She has been drinking Lingquan water every night before going to bed recently, and she also adds a little water to the water tank at home from time to time.
Yu Qingqing found that the skin color of her family members was much better than before. She herself could clearly feel that her skin had become whiter and she looked more beautiful.
"Boss, give me ten rolls of linen, five rolls of cotton cloth, and fifty kilograms of cotton."
Yu Qingqing knew that it was more cost-effective to buy cloth, so she bought a few pieces of cloth and some cotton, intending to make some both thin and thick ones in case of emergency.
"Okay, sir, the total is one tael of silver, please take your cloth."
The shop assistant quickly packed the cloth. Yu Qinghai took the cloth and put it on the ox cart. Then they started to go somewhere else.
Then he went to the grocery store and bought 100 catties of salt and 50 catties of various spices, spending a total of 2,850 coins. Finally, he accelerated the ox cart and came to the grain store.
Although there were people queuing at the grain shop, there were not many of them. Yu Qingshu was very curious about this, and soon it was his turn. When he asked about the price, he was shocked.
The price of grain had risen too much, no wonder not many people came to buy it, and he found that there were fewer people in the town. Even the unfamiliar faces he had seen before were gone.
"Waiter, are you sure that brown rice costs fifty cents per pound? Brown rice costs one hundred cents per pound?"
Yu Qingshu still asked in disbelief, which also scared Yu Qinghai and Yu Qingqing beside him. What was going on? The price of food was almost sky-high.
"Sir, that's right! Our shop may only be open for a few days. Our boss and his family are going back to our hometown in a few days and will not stay here anymore."
The waiter said with some distress that once the shopkeeper left, he would be unemployed, which was really depressing.
"Waiter, give me 300 kilograms of brown rice." Yu Qingshu gritted his teeth and decided to buy some, otherwise he would be starving to death.
"Okay, sir, it has been packed. The total is fifteen taels of silver."
Yu Qingshu took out the silver with a painful look on his face. After deducting the money he spent on buying food, he now had one tael of silver and three fifty-tael ounces of silver left, which totaled one hundred and fifty-one taels of silver.
Yu Qinghai moved the grain onto the ox cart and drove the cart back home.
Five hundred miles away from Shuihe Village, in a dark alley, a figure landed in a three-story courtyard.
"Master, I have already bought the ginseng. I bought it from a pharmacy in Yuye Town for 1,500 taels of silver.
With this ginseng, your injury will heal quickly. I have contacted Chen Er and the others, and they will meet us at the next station."
"Okay, you give the ginseng to Yuanyi to deal with, and you continue to investigate."
There was no smile on the man's beautiful face, only a few cold words could be heard.
Then he walked into the study, took out his favorite set of writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone, and wrote a letter.
I tied the letter carefully to the leg of a carrier pigeon, patted the pigeon's back, and with a flutter of its wings, the pigeon flew away.
The man’s room is decorated very luxuriously. Although the outside of the house looks ordinary, the decoration inside also highlights the man’s noble status.
Next to the window sill are two pots of the most popular "golden rose" in Kyoto. Any pot is worth a fortune.
Next to the window was a standing bookcase. Books were neatly placed in the cabinet. The paper of the books was made of gold paper, of course it was not made of real gold paper, but the quality of the paper was several times better than that of hemp paper.
There are two small tables on both sides of the bookcase, each with two colorful vases on it.
The inkstone on Yuan Xichen's desk is also specially made. It is carved from real jade and looks dazzling.
After Yuan Xichen finished writing, he went to the side room next door, drank tea and closed his eyes to rest.
Yu Qingqing finally arrived home at noon. "Mom, do you think something happened to Dad and the others? They haven't come home for so long."
At this time, Yu Qingmei and Hua Qinglu were restless at home. They just went to the town, but they didn't expect their husbands and children to have not returned yet. Moreover, they went to sell ginseng. Could it be that they were being targeted by someone?
Just as Hua Qinglu was daydreaming, there was a knock on the door.
Hua Qinglu walked quickly to the door, opened it and saw her husband, daughter and son, then she felt relieved.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? You look so anxious. Are you worried about us? Don't worry. Look, our daughter is safe now that we are back."
When Yu Qingqing saw Hua Qinglu's expression, she knew that he must have come back late and his mother was worried.
"It's good that you're back! It's good that you're back"!
Hua Qinglu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Is this an ox cart? Ours?" Yu Qingmei and Yu Qingji asked happily when they saw the ox cart. When they realized what was happening, they immediately shut their mouths.
"Yes, I bought it with the money from Qing'er's ginseng sales. From now on we will have an ox cart, and I also bought some food. Now the price of food has gone up again."
Yu Qingshu answered while he and Yu Qinghai were busy moving the food back home.
Hua Qinglu and Hua Qingmei went to serve tonight's dinner. The meal was very sumptuous.
Yu Qingji felt happier and happier. He felt that having meat to eat was a good life.
