Chapter 93 Buying a Mule Cart

Shu Yu followed Butler Yu to see the remaining rouge and gouache. They were actually quite good. Except for a few that were really not that good, the remaining twenty or so boxes were better than what Cuihua and the others bought at the rouge shop in town.

Shu Yu thanked the housekeeper, and left with the housekeeper, Quan Zhongren, who had received the agency fee.

Shu Yu stayed to look at the shop. Now that she was the only one in the shop, she had to think carefully about how to arrange it according to the layout of the shop.

It wasn't until he walked out of the store that Butler Yu whispered to everyone in the house, "You have to keep the matter a secret from me, especially the rent. Our master also knows the situation of his family, and with such a connection, he knows

Their family was a little frightened and suffered an unforeseen disaster. It's okay if they don't encounter it, but if they do encounter someone who can help, it can be regarded as calming their panic. They didn't directly waive the rent, but it was also to take care of the little girl's self-esteem.

.It’s just that if you talk about this, it will inevitably ruin the market.”

Quanzhong people understood and said, "I understand, I understand."

Butler Yu gave Quan Zhongren a tael of silver and left with a smile.

The Yu family doesn't care about the little rent of the shop. If possible, the master would like to sell the shop directly. But now that it has just been announced that his wife is seriously ill, he can't wait to sell the shop she manages. Outsiders will inevitably interfere.

Speculating will lead to more troubles. Rent it for a while first, and then sell it after the storm has passed.

Moreover, after listening to the teacher's wife's words, the master has been doing good deeds during this period. He is especially concerned about children's affairs. Of course he has to help the twins who were almost in trouble.

After Shu Yu looked at the shop inside and out, he felt very satisfied.

Then she went to the silk and satin shop next door to buy some better quality fabrics, took the selected rouge and gouache and prepared to go back.

When passing by the carriage and horse shop, Shu Yu paused. He had to buy a carriage. Not only a carriage, but also a mule carriage was needed. It was convenient for delivering goods and traveling.

She has inquired about it, and found that there are not many horses here in Jiangyuan County, let alone good horses. Rich and powerful people go to Fucheng to buy them. Therefore, the price of horses here is between fifteen taels and twenty-five taels.

.

Mules are much cheaper, with the lowest price being eight taels and the highest price being twelve taels.

Shu Yu hesitated for a moment, then turned around and went to the cattle and horse market.

Half an hour later, a mule cart was pulled out. The seller stood behind her and kept sighing, "This little girl is so good at bargaining." She thought she could give her a hard bargain with her young age and ignorant look.

Previous transaction.

Unexpectedly, the mule that originally cost twelve taels was actually one tael cheaper, so forget it. The carriage behind it was nice and sturdy, so she was fooled into using it.

She gave twelve taels for the mule and carriage, which was equivalent to giving away such a good carriage for free.

Shu Yu smiled, put everything on the mule cart, led him all the way out of the city gate, then got on the carriage and headed towards Shangshi Village.

She has learned how to drive a mule cart. The first two times she rented a cart, she communicated with the cart driver and even tried to drive the cart herself.

Shu Yu has a strong learning ability, and the mule is also well-behaved and has a smooth journey.

As soon as they arrived at the entrance of Shangshi Village, the mule cart attracted the attention of the villagers of Shangshi Village.

In the entire village, there are at most two cows and one donkey, and no one really buys a mule cart.

Because Shu Yu had rented a mule cart twice, the villagers thought she had rented it this time as well, and after taking one look, they turned away and whispered.
