Chapter 10 Procurement

And he exchanged fifty taels of silver for two silver tickets of twenty taels, and five taels of silver for one, and some broken silver and copper.

After opening the money, the two walked out of the noodle stall.

"Jun'er, let's see what is missing at home, and buy all the things together."

Mu Chen was a little scared when he thought of the room with four walls and three airtight sides, and he was afraid that he would be stolen if he bought too many things.

"Okay, I'll help my sister get something."

Mu Jun followed behind Mu Chen, like a small tail.

"You can lift the light ones, and I'll lift the heavy ones."

Mu Chen soon saw a store, which was for grain.

Mu Chen walked in and looked at the rice, there were several kinds of rice, one was polished rice, one was coarse rice, and the other was husked rice, which was rice.

"Shopkeeper, how do you see this kind of rice being sold?"

Mu Chen pointed to the milled rice and asked the shopkeeper.

"Fifteen pounds of polished rice."

The shopkeeper glanced at Mu Chen coldly, and then quoted the price.

"You weigh me twenty pounds."

Mu Chen wanted to buy twenty catties and take them home to eat slowly.

"Sister, twenty catties is too much, let's just buy five catties for you to eat, I'll eat coarse rice."

As soon as Mu Jun heard what his sister said, he quickly stopped his sister, polishing rice is so expensive, it's better to give it to her sister.

"Just weigh twenty catties of polished rice, you are still growing your body."

Mu Chen has a lot of opinions on polished rice and coarse rice, polished rice is very similar to modern rice, that is, the water head is not as good as modern rice, and there are a lot of sand and gravel in coarse rice, and there are some others, which don't look good.

"Okay, girl, wait."

Although the rice seller glanced at Mu Chen, as soon as he heard that Mu Chen bought twenty catties of polished rice, he knew that he had caught the big customer, and immediately weighed it with his hands and feet.

The polished rice was weighed quickly.

"Girl, you're all right."

The rice seller carried a bag, a miniature version of the sack.

Mu Chen took out the rags in his arms, took out three pieces of broken silver from it, opened the money, and then took the bag.

"Let's go buy two pots, Jun'er, you lead the way."

Mu Chen remembered that the pots were all borrowed from Aunt Hua, and he was ashamed for a while, even if Aunt Hua's family was relatively wealthy in the village, there were only two pots.

"Sister, let's go buy a pot."

Mu Jun took Mu Chen and quickly found a place to sell pots and bought two pots.

There are still many things missing, Mu Chen and Mu Jun went to buy two back baskets, one large and one small, so they went to buy other things on their backs.

After buying it in one meal, Mu Chen spent two taels of silver to buy the most basic daily necessities, and both of them carried a lot of things on their backs.

However, the difference is that Mu Chen's back is heavy, and Mu Jun's back is light.

On the return trip, Mu Chen finally didn't have to walk, and when he had silver, he naturally had to take an ox cart.

The ox cart was driven by Uncle Hu, an old man in the village, who was a lonely man named Hu Qing.

It's a pity that luck is not the same as the name, in the early years, I married a wife and had children, and my wife had a difficult birth when she gave birth.

died, and his only son died of smallpox when he was five years old, and finally Uncle Hu passed on the name of his wife, so he did not take it again.

The people in the village like to call him Uncle Hu.

This was set up by Mu Chen when he was riding Uncle Hu's ox cart, Uncle Hu is a talkative person, Mu Chen can do the position of director naturally has two brushes, and the simple Uncle Hu's words are very simple.

Mu Jun watched his sister set Uncle Hu's words on the side, and in his heart, his sister was the best, so Mu Chen's words became Mu Jun's scenery.
