Chapter 109: Buying a Carriage
“As the saying goes: When a person is about to die, his words are good.
But that person is not so kind.”
When I first heard him tell the so-called secret, I thought he was encouraging them to steal water after entering the county town, but now it seems that is not the case. ,or maybe both.
“Miss Su, can I ask, how do you judge?” Zhang Bingliang was very curious.
“First of all, the gang leader knows that he will not survive. Given his nature, he may not be so kind to the person who killed him.
The credibility of what he said can only be half believed, or even lower.”
“Secondly, in After the information received conflicted with the other party, the answer lies in the fact that the county magistrate had something to do with his words.
If you want to deceive people into the city and then rob them, the price of water will not be so high.
This price can dissuade most of the refugees, and the purchase conditions also restrict the purchase of another group of refugees.
It’s consistent with attracting people into the city and planning something evil.”
“If the other party only wants to kill the rich and looks down on other people, it’s not impossible, but you can tell something about it by looking at the soldiers guarding the city.
No, although they are fierce, their eyes are not like those of the soldiers guarding the city in Hui’an Prefecture.
They look at the refugees as if they were looking at prey.”
“Their words and deeds are consistent with those of veteran soldiers, but they are not soldiers with an air of aggression.”
Actually, they are not. ” One thing Su Yin didn’t say was that she didn’t dream last night.
According to the previous two experiences, each prophetic dream was a dangerous time, facing a life or death crisis.
This may be a coincidence, but it may also be that precognitive dreams only predict matters of life and death.
At present, it seems that Su Yin is more inclined to the latter.
Zhang Bingliang said gratefully: “Miss Su, I have gained a lot of knowledge and lessons.”
He benefited a lot from her point-by-point analysis.
After the three people returned, they told everyone what they knew.
Everyone gasped when they heard eight ounces and one bucket of water.
Before they could digest the eight-liang-per-barrel issue, they were told that they were not eligible to purchase it, which suddenly made them feel that eight-liang and one barrel was actually acceptable.
“This is too expensive.”
“This is simply a money grab.”
“I can’t afford it, I can’t afford it.”
“I still have enough water at home. If there is no shortage now, my family won’t buy it.” Butcher Yang said.
Although they have made some extra money these few times, looking at the crazy rising prices, the ridiculous prices, and the money in their pockets that should have allowed their family to live comfortably for several years, it seems not enough.
Other companies also said that they had enough water at home and there was no need to buy it.
“Yinyin, should we buy it?” Mother Su asked.
Su Yin shook his head, “No need for now.”
“Then shall we go into the city?”
“Go in.”
Su Yin looked at the others, “If you want to buy something, you must hurry up.
We must set off at noon. “If you don’t want to buy, you can take a good rest outside the city.”
“There are a few things to say here. First, it is unknown whether the city will be opened in the future.
Things in the city will be very expensive. You have to think carefully,” Mrs. Xu said, “I want to change the carriage and buy some food.
I didn’t bring many things with me.
Now that she has a horse, she doesn’t have to rely on herself to pull it, which saves a lot of effort.
The only drawback is that the cart is too small, which is a waste of horses. Change to a larger carport, which can hold more things.
Niuniu and her mother-in-law can also rest in the carport.
“My family doesn’t have enough food, so I have to go to the city to buy some.”
There is no need to worry about food, not to mention that they now have horses that can carry more things, and they don’t have to worry about not being able to carry them.
Su Yin and her uncle’s family both had a horse that was idle and had not been hitched to the carriage.
Nowadays, if you can enter a town, you have to buy a carriage.
The Zhang family knew that Su Yin and his party would enter the city, so they also sent two people out to follow them into the city.
Su Yin looked at Wan Sanye, “Fat Master, are you going?”
Wan Sanye waved his hand, “I won’t go.”
Su Yin didn’t ask any more questions. She didn’t need to worry about people like Wan Sanye. He has his own plans.
Su’s mother had difficulty with her legs and feet, so she stayed to look at the luggage.
Su Yin and Su Baozhu, the people who entered the city this time, each family also sent two young men out.
The three parties are all gathered together, and there is strength in numbers, and they are not afraid of any unsighted person who dares to come and snatch things.
After queuing up to enter the city, Su Yin paid the entry fee.
After everyone entered the county town, Su Yin said, “Let’s make a quick decision. Don’t stay for a long time. We must leave the city at noon.”
“Okay.”
Everyone had different purposes and purchased different things, so they dispersed.
Su Baozhu and others went to the grain store. Su Yin, his uncle Yang Dahe, Madam Xu, and Zhang Bingliang led their horses to the horse market in the county town.
The horse market has opened, and there are quite a few people inside, including many people buying horses.
Most of them are decently dressed, but occasionally some people with shabby clothes and dusty clothes are also choosing animals.
At first glance, these people are the ones who have fled, and they also have rich family backgrounds.
As soon as Su Yin and the others entered the market, someone came up to ask.
“What do you four want to buy?”
“The carriage.”
“There are many kinds of carriages in my house, with different sizes and different prices.
Do you want to buy a more elegant one or a slightly larger one?”
The clerk looked at the two of them, seeming to be thinking about which one would be easier to introduce to them. make a deal.
“Tell me the size and price of each item.”
“Okay. Let’s introduce it to you while we look at it.”
The waiter enthusiastically pulled the four of them inside.
“This smaller carriage is priced at 200 Wen. This medium-sized carriage is priced at 500 Wen.
The one slightly larger than this one is priced at 700 Wen. The other one is the largest carriage in our store and is priced at 500 Wen.
Thirty taels of silver. The largest carriage is better than the other ones in terms of workmanship and comfort.”
Su Yin looked at it and it was indeed good, but what he didn’t say was which carriage was the best.
If two horses pull and one horse pulls, the horses will be overwhelmed and prone to accidents.
“If we buy four, can it be cheaper?”
The waiter said with a smile: “Sir, I’m really sorry, the price I quoted you is the lowest, it can’t be cheaper.”
“Miss Su, let’s go to another store to have a look.” Zhang Bingliang Open your mouth.
The guy didn’t panic at all, “Everyone, please.”
After going around in circles, the four of them finally came back.
There is no way, the prices in the entire market are unified, this is the first time they have seen it.
This Anping County is very different.
Each family has their own choice. Su Yin and Zhang Bingliang chose the 700-wen one, and Madam Xu and her uncle chose the 500-wen one.
