Volume 1: Settling down to live and work 72: Purchasing(1/2)
After Elder Bai finished giving instructions to Xiao Lengyue and helped change the restrictions on the defensive formation, the midnight snack was ready.
Cheng Dongyu saw that it had been a long time, so he made spicy hot soup, hot and sour noodles and grilled skewers.
Elder Bai's beard stood up, and his usually cold facial lines softened a bit.
After eating and drinking, everyone was ready to return to Chuji Hall.
There were two carriages in the ranch. They chose one at random, and then Cheng Dongyu drove the carriage out of the ranch.
When we returned to Chuji Hall, it was already nightfall.
Xiao Lengyue was very uneasy. He seemed to have come back too late. She wondered if there would be any punishment.
Elder Bai glanced at him, stretched out his hand and threw him a token. After thinking about it, he threw another token to Cheng Dongyu.
"This is my exclusive token. No one will embarrass you because of the curfew in the future. Even if you don't come back at night, no one dares to say anything. By the way, are you going to buy something in the ranch tomorrow? These one hundred thousand taels
You take it back and buy something with it."
Cheng Dongyu was flattered and hurriedly refused. Wasn't this the deposit he had paid before?
"You can take it as long as you want. Money is an external possession. The important thing is that you don't buy anything of poor quality back. In addition, you also buy a new set of bedding for me, and then buy a set for Zheng Zhong. Let's do this first.
, I will tell you to buy more when I think of something. Let’s go, it’s already deep, go back and rest early.”
After Elder Bai handed the money to Cheng Dongyu, he took the first step and opened the ban on Chu Jitang's defense array.
Xiao Lengyue quickly pulled Cheng Dongyu to follow.
After entering Chuji Hall, the patrol guards saluted Elder Bai and said hello.
Elder Bai waved his hand, and they all went to patrol elsewhere.
"Oh, by the way, my suit requires silk. I can't sleep with other qualities."
After Elder Bai said this, he strode inside.
Xiao Lengyue saluted his back, and then motioned to Cheng Dongyu to go back to the guest house first.
"Third brother, I'm afraid it won't be good if we take back that one hundred thousand taels of silver, right?"
As soon as he entered the guest house, Cheng Dongyu said anxiously.
"Second brother, don't worry. I think Elder Bai may not care much about gold and silver. Since he insists, we will accept it first. When there is news from Sister Yun, it will not be too late to follow up. Otherwise, if
I'm afraid it won't look good if you directly refute his face."
Xiao Lengyue explained.
Cheng Dongyu thought about it carefully and found that this was also the case.
Accepting the kindness of others is sometimes a form of respect.
Since the third brother had something to worry about, he no longer worried.
Before, I was mainly afraid of having a bad influence on my third brother.
After all, Elder Bai is in charge of the entire Chu Jitang. If he accidentally offends him, he will be in trouble.
Lu Yao didn't bother to pay attention to these things, and went directly back to the beast's bag to fiddle with the pig's head.
When I woke up again, I was awakened by Xiao Lengyue.
Xiao Lengyue made delicious breakfast again.
Lu Yao stretched himself out and prepared to have a good meal today.
Elder Bai has been eating and drinking these past few days, and even competed with him for food, so that he didn't even eat well.
After washing up, he cast a spell and left the beast-controlling bag.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he appeared, he saw Elder Bai sitting at the dining table with a golden sword.
"Meow~~~Why is he here again?"
He looked at Xiao Lengyue with dissatisfaction.
Xiao Lengyue laughed a few times but didn't answer.
Lu Yao had no choice but to sit on the table silently.
Elder Bai's appetite is still very good. He eats more than the three of them alone.
"Are you going to the market to do some shopping later?"
Elder Bai asked Cheng Dongyu while eating.
Cheng Dongyu quickly responded that he did have this plan.
Now that we have a ranch, the sooner we can start construction, the better.
"I have nothing to do today. I will go with you later."
Elder Bai said.
Cheng Dongyu held the chopsticks in his hand for a moment, and thought about the words he wanted to blurt out several times in his mind before replying with a smile: "Is this too much trouble for you? The affairs in Chujitang are so busy, how can such a small thing happen?
What's bothering you?"
Lu Yao glanced at him sideways, this bastard has made some progress and knows how to talk in a roundabout way.
"Every matter in Chujitang is handled by someone. And the affairs of the ranch are definitely not trivial. It can be as big as buying a cow or as small as buying a seed. There is a lot of knowledge involved. If you don't know how to do it, you will only be cheated.
My wife used to run a ranch in her family, so she knows a lot about this. I have been with her for a long time, and I am familiar with it, so I understand it to a certain extent."
After Elder Bai said these words, Cheng Dongyu couldn't say anything more.
After breakfast, Xiao Lengyue went to the classroom of the first team, while Cheng Dongyu took Lu Yao and followed Elder Bai out the door.
The carriage brought out from the ranch yesterday was stored in the outer courtyard of Chuji Hall.
After paying the money, they drove the carriage and rushed to the market.
Elder Bai said that the most comprehensive and best market to buy these things is the Second Market.
There are some in the third market, but the quality is not good, and that is a place where people who are greedy for cheap will go.
Cheng Dongyu cried, I am the kind of person who is greedy for cheap!
But naturally I dare not say this out loud.
Their relationship is always that of parents and teachers.
Few parents dare to directly confront teachers. The reason is naturally that they are worried that their children will be treated harshly at the hands of others.
So, they went straight to the second market.
There were not many people in the second market, and most of the people coming and going were people wearing brocade.
Cheng Dongyu muttered to himself, this looked like the kind of place where he would be slaughtered.
Elder Bai didn't know what he was thinking, and said to him: "The goods here are complete, of high quality, and there are few people. It is a good place. What should we buy first? I will help you advise."
Cheng Dongyu's eyelids trembled, fearing that he didn't have enough money in his pocket.
Lu Yao squatted on Cheng Dongyu's shoulder, understanding his feelings very well.
In fact, they really don't need something of particularly high quality, as long as it works. After all, they have a system and can upgrade it.
Elder Bai seemed to like going to the market very much. He talked a lot along the way and never stopped talking.
Cheng Dongyu rubbed his temples. He finally understood why his elder brother hated him.
It is naturally a pleasure for two people to chat, take care of each other's feelings, and talk about harmless topics.
But if someone ignores the feelings of others and only says what he wants to say, making the atmosphere monotonous, this kind of chat will become a very uncomfortable thing for the other person.
They spent a whole day shopping, from the furniture store to the soft furnishings store, then to the seed store, and finally to the livestock store.
I bought a lot of various things, and every item was personally selected and highly recommended by Elder Bai.
"How about it? The quality of these items is pretty good, right?"
Elder Bai asked somewhat proudly.
Cheng Dongyu nodded hard, but his heart was bleeding from pain.
A total of one hundred thousand taels of silver was spent, not even a penny was left.
Lu Yao yawned and rubbed his belly again. He was a little hungry.
After shopping all day, they haven't eaten anything except breakfast.
The main reason is that there are high-end stores like Tingfengju next to them, and Cheng Dongyu, who has spent a lot of money, is reluctant to part with them.
"You're hungry, let's go. I'll take you to a restaurant. Their food is famous and has a unique flavor."
Elder Bai pointed to a restaurant with a high-end and upscale decoration and said.
Cheng Dongyu's face twitched, but in the end he didn't dare to say the word "I won't go".
Entering the restaurant, Elder Bai directly asked for a private room, and he saw that he was a regular customer here.
The waiters in the store were busy running around, which made people feel at home.
