Chapter 9 Rich and capricious
The next day, Xia Qing, who jumped off the carriage at the city gate, waved goodbye to the Zhuang people who drove the grain cart, and waited for the grain cart to go away before raising her feet and walking towards Zhengyangmen Street, the front gate building. Walk along the main street towards the east until you reach Dongfang City, and you will be able to buy all the things you need. Xia Qing looked at the unique banners of recruiting customers along the road! It was still pleasant to travel to a wealthy dynasty.
This ancient capital is different, this is really prosperous. Xia Qing walked all the way in the direction of Dongfang City, looking at the target of the cloth shop, but this did not prevent Xia Qing from looking at the coal market left and right. Quietly, she looked at all the pedestrians in front of her behind her, and there was nothing unusual, so it could be seen that no one was following her. I didn't expect that the eldest aunt would dare to make a ghost!
The main purpose of Xia Qing's entry into the city this time was to buy some cloth to make clothes, and to prepare the quilts, and to go to the general's mansion on an errand. Many things must not be missing, and the quality cannot be outrageous too much, so it is necessary to prepare a set of equipment to enter the house, which can not be saved, and it is also a necessary means to stabilize the situation. The grandfather, who felt sorry for her health, specially arranged a car to deliver grain to the Guogong Mansion, let her take it into the city, and when she went back, he asked her to hire a small sedan chair or ox cart to come back.
For Xia Qing, Xia Qing's entry into the General's Mansion is just something she did for her original body, and saying a thousand ways and ten thousand is just to break the guilt in her heart, occupying someone else's body, so she naturally has to deal with the problem from the position of the original body, the General's Mansion is just a springboard, a springboard for Xia Qing to escape. There is another advantage to entering the general's mansion to take a circle, and if the incident happens in the future, this crime will not be carried by the parents and grandparents of the original body. Even if you repay the favor for the original body!
In fact, on this trip to the capital, Xia Qing's main purpose was to go to Huaishu Lane to set up a household post, and by the way, to make up for the poor things in the space, and the storage of the space made the escape plan possible.
Walking to the side of the coal market, people come and go, all of whom are in charge of the purchase for the master's family. In autumn, there are a lot of people who buy charcoal, many large households are preparing to burn charcoal after autumn, the coal shop on the left is crowded, and a large number of shipments are being made, Xia Qing immediately went in, asked the price casually, and set the good silver silk charcoal on the 20 large baskets. There are also ten baskets of pine cones. In the shop, a lot of coolies are waiting to deliver charcoal for people, Xiao Er is also busy looking at the tail, Xia Qing wants silver silk charcoal is a high-quality commodity, Xiao Er took her at the moment, pointed to the twenty large baskets in the corner of the yard for Xia Qing, and ten baskets of pine cones were also moved and put together! It looked like a hill, and it only cost twenty taels of silver! After all, it was just autumn, and charcoal was not the most expensive time. In the winter, it will be more expensive, and the same goods will more than triple.
"Eldest sister, do you want to deliver this goods?"
"No need, the coachman in the house will come to pull it, you can go and get busy!"
"Eldest sister, then I'll go and get busy, you wait a little longer for your coachman!"
"You are busy!" Xia Qing said with a smile to Xiao Er, who was still a little hairy in the charcoal shop, while making a look of waiting for someone to move the goods, everyone was very busy, the coolies of this store were moving the goods, and after a while, Xia Qing left the store and left, and the charcoal had already entered the space and was properly placed. This is also the reason why Xia Qing squeezed in when she saw a lot of people. Stores that have received a large order will not pay too much attention to a small order.
Got the largest deal, and the 'consignment' was smooth, Xia Qing was confident enough, and she entered the store every time, the more lively the store, the faster she ran, and she looked like she was very successful, and swept some rice, lamp oil, salt, mushrooms, ingredients, vermicelli, brown sugar and other things that could be used in the kitchen. The amount is also large, there are many varieties, soy sauce and vinegar are all bought in the jar, and the bits and pieces are put in a big bag, every time a store comes out, Xia Qing always asks Xiao Er to put the things he bought in the corner outside the door of the store, and he stands to the side and guards, always waiting for his companions to pick up the goods, seeing that no one is paying attention, he naturally moves into the space, and continues to shop!
In the salt shop, I took a fancy to the whole bag of salt, and I didn't buy much, and a salt shop only had one or two bags. It's almost Layue, and the salt of pickled meat and vegetables is bought in bags, a bag is ten catties, and it is not allowed to buy more, but there are more than a dozen salt shops of this size, Xia Qing has come all the way, and has also bought twenty or thirty bags of salt to put it. That's enough for two or three years.
Rice is not bought much, but five stones, flour is even less, (Xia Qing does not like pasta,) grain can not be bought in large quantities, plus the grain stores are on the other side of the city, thinking about the next three years of disaster, Xia Qing thinks, it is great that the grain in the rice field in the space can be fully utilized! Unfortunately, now I can only look at it and can't move, and I have to buy three or four hundred stone of staple grain for three years, right? The drought will not be until next year, Xia Qing only keeps the matter of buying food in her heart, and if she has the opportunity, she can also buy it, and when she arrives in Dongfang City, Xia Qing has almost all the things she needs to fire in the space she wants.
Next is bedding, clothes, and the like, which can be done in one stop in "Rui Fu Ji"! This is the original body since the age of twelve, and he has been doing work here, and people from both worlds have taken work here, and how familiar they must be! Walking into "Rui Fu Ji", I saw that the shopkeeper and Xiao Er all greeted Xia Qing, and Xia Qing was clear about the things sold here. I didn't even think about looking at the quality in detail.
"The shopkeeper of the king, take two sets of quilt covers today, and take a thick mattress sewn with first-class fine cotton and new cotton, a set for night, (equivalent to the size of a modern single mattress, less than three feet wide soft cushion, spread on the Luohan couch or the foot pedal girl of the stepping bed), the quilt is a three-pound small quilt;
"What's the matter? There are new sisters who want to add something? This Qingyun soft smoke Luo's bedspread sells well, I remember that there is also a set of rain and banana curtains, the most excellent, the big quilt is covered with a silk quilt, this bedspread is lined with a light pink blue quilt embroidered with wild goose pictures, but it is excellent, and the price is not high. Should the pillow be soft or hard?" are all acquaintances, and the shopkeeper Wang doesn't have any empty nonsense, and while talking to Xia Qing, he motioned to the young man on the side to move the goods as he said.
"Bring it for the housekeeper'......s sister, take a pair of pillows, anyway, it doesn't cost me money!
This is also a common thing, for friends in the house to bring a quilt cover, there will always be a car to let the hand come back to the house first, after a while, the little guy in the store Xiao Zhu from the inside out of the two sets of quilts out, followed by a young man with a face to carry the mattress.
