Chapter 581: Preparing to Buy a Horse (Five Watches)
If you don't bring anything with you, it's really not easy to walk more than ten miles, not to mention that people who come to the town often have to bring something back, and you can't be tired to death if you carry a load on the road for more than ten miles?
Su Qingyao discussed with Zhao Hongxiu, and the current plan is that her soap will be temporarily sold in the shop under Zhao Hongxiu's name.
But in the future, she must have set up a shop by herself, and then specialize in selling soap.
The previous plan was that it was difficult to open a store and it would cost a lot of money. She doesn't have so much capital for the time being, so she has to ask Zhao Hongxiu to sell her soap for a period of time, save enough money to find a shop, and then start to open a store.
This time, I extorted two hundred taels of silver directly in the hands of the shopkeeper of the Yuanlai Restaurant, so much money can rent a small shop, and then invest in decoration to open a store.
When the business is done, you have to come to the town every day, and the soap business can't close at 10 a.m.
Since then, I have not been able to catch up with the ox cart, and the problem of how to return to the village must be solved.
Su Qingyao pondered for a while, she had to buy a horse or a donkey.
The donkey is a bit small, and if you sometimes need to carry a lot of goods, it is estimated that it will be very difficult to pull.
Buying a horse will carry much more goods, and the horse will run much faster than a donkey. The only bad thing is that the price of a horse is definitely much higher than that of a donkey.
After thinking about it for a while, Su Qingyao felt that it would be better to buy a horse in the long run.
A horse costs about thirty taels of silver, and it is still possible to draw a part of the two hundred taels of silver from the pit.
After thinking about it, Su Qingyao decided to wait for a while, and after buying the pig fat and pork, she went to the livestock market to have a look and picked a horse to buy.
Su Qingyao and Qin Sheng walked for a while before arriving at the market.
There are many meat shops selling meat in this bazaar, and there is more than one.
The butcher stalls are full of pork.
There are also a lot of patterns, including pork belly, hind leg meat, large chops, pork fat, pork liver, barrel bones, and pig water......
As in the 21st century, they are all arranged in different categories.
However, the price is not the same as in the 21st century.
Meat like chops, barrel bones, and lean meat is not cheap in the 21st century, but the price is on the cheap side in this era.
Su Qingyao looked at a few restaurants, and naturally she had to buy fresh meat, and she couldn't buy the kind that wasn't fresh.
The meat of a few families looked a little darker, it should have been a few days later, and Su Qingyao did not stop when she passed by the stall.
When I arrived at another stall, I saw that the meat on it was relatively tender, bright and beautiful, and it should have been killed yesterday.
If you want to buy it, you have to buy this kind of fresh meat, and just as Su Qingyao was about to ask the price, she heard someone call her and Qin Sheng.
This person was the owner of a pork stall not far away, that is, an old acquaintance in their village, Zhang Butcher.
Zhang Butcher greeted Su Qingyao and Qin Sheng with a smile, "Oh, Qin Sheng, Qingyao girl, are you going to buy meat?"
Come to Uncle Zhang's place to take a look, Uncle Zhang's meat is good today! ”
Su Qingyao looked at Zhang Butcher's meat case, and the meat on the meat case was obviously not very fresh, but she told her that the meat was good, and she was not a fool, so she didn't buy fresh meat and ran to buy it that wasn't fresh.
Although the fat from the pig fat needed to make soap does not need to be too fresh, it is still fresher and better.
