Chapter Ninety-Four: A Carriage
Following.
Morning.
Su Ting went out early and spent money to buy a carriage, the decoration was not gorgeous, but it was also simple and concise, and the main thing was that the workmanship was stable.
It's just that the price of this carriage made Su Ting feel distressed for a long time.
Because under the strict laws of the Great Zhou, horses are expensive, and this carriage can also be called very valuable.
In fact, this horse is not a good horse, it is just ordinary, and the carriage is not very gorgeous and high, but just like that, it costs dozens of taels of silver...... You must know that in this world, you can't spend so much money to buy a maid.
"Don't talk about troubled times, even if it is a peaceful and prosperous world, human life is still cheaper than horses. ”
Su Ting exhaled and said secretly in his heart: "It's just a carriage, and it's more expensive than buying a beautiful maid...... If you change to a high-quality horse and a gorgeous carriage, you have to smash half of Chen Youyu's life savings into it to make it up. ”
These carriages, because of the strict laws of the Great Zhou, are very expensive, in fact, in Luoyue County, there are few transactions, most of them are rented with money.
Moreover, these Zhuangzi who raise horses are not the business of ordinary people in Luoyue County, these businesses of carriages and horses are used in Luoyue County, that is, the Sun family, the Wang family, the Tang family and other major clans, to travel, or to buy, sell, or rent.
In addition, it is from other places, or pedestrians, or caravans, often due to various conditions, rent or buy and sell chariots and horses.
......
"Do you know how to drive this carriage?"
When my cousin came out, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and she asked, "If not, you have to hire a coachman, so it costs too much...... Why don't we go and retreat?"
Su Ting touched his cheeks, speechless, and sighed: "Sister, I have said it three times, I learned how to drive a carriage from others in the Zhuangzi where I bought a carriage...... It's not been a long time, but my intelligence, my talent, you know, it's not a problem to learn to ride a horse in a short time. ”
He knew that his cousin, who had always been thrifty, was really distressed for the sake of this carriage.
Although he didn't say the price of the carriage, his cousin also knew that in Luoyue County, things like carriages were by no means something that ordinary people could use to travel.
"You......"
Su Yue sighed, quite helpless.
Originally, in her eyes, she and Xiaoting went all the way to walk on foot, travel a long distance, and pass through this thousand-mile journey.
But who knows, Xiao Ting actually spent a lot of money to buy a carriage without her consent.
Su Ting looked at her like this, and said with a smile: "What's so distressing about this? You can't travel thousands of miles, let's really walk on foot?"
Su Yuefeng nodded lightly, as if she wanted to say yes.
Seeing this, Su Ting first coughed and said, "Sister, you see this season, the weather is changeable, sometimes the sun is as hot as fire, sometimes it is cloudy and stormy, since we have this money, we can't suffer all the way." ”
"Walking thousands of miles on foot is not only tiring, but also time-consuming, and with so much luggage, to walk such a long way, does it cost people's lives?"
"Besides, even if we miss the lodging in a hurry, we can still live in a carriage and not sleep in the wilderness, which will not only suffer, but also be dangerous. ”
"Jackals, tigers and leopards, for example, or something?"
As he spoke, Su Ting glanced at his cousin, and then said, "Again...... Happened to see us on the road, and got into a bad guy?"
As soon as these words came out, it was Su Yuefeng, and she couldn't help but be a little flustered in her heart.
Seeing this, Su Ting continued to speak, and said, "If it doesn't work, let's sleep in the carriage a few more times, save the money for accommodation, and save a lot of money for buying the carriage." ”
"Even if you take a step back and say, let's take a carriage, go early and return early, cure your cold early, and come back early to open a shop and make more money...... And after coming back, this carriage is not gone, and it is a big deal that it can be sold. ”
After Su Ting said this, Su Yuefeng seemed to feel justified, but she looked at the carriage and couldn't help sighing, "But how can we have spare money, why do you think about buying this carriage?"
Su Ting smiled: "Isn't there still a little silver tael at home, plus the rent of the store for half a year this time, we can make up for it." ”
Su Yue frowned and said, "That's not enough." ”
Su Ting always said that it was Chen Youyu's family next door, so he just smiled and said: "The last time I was a fool with the prince of the Wang family, I cheated him at that time, and now I haven't spent it all, plus this half-year rent, it can be regarded as barely enough." ”
"I scraped together enough money to buy a carriage, what should I do with the expenses on the road?"
"I have my own way, I can't go hungry ......"
Su Ting said this, and was afraid that his cousin would ask again, so he hurriedly said: "Song Lao is still waiting, let's hurry up, and when we pass the temple, we have to say goodbye to Song Lao." ”
Hearing this, Su Yuefeng didn't dare to snub the elders, so she asked Song Lao to wait for a long time, so she didn't ask again.
The two of them didn't have much belongings, just a few clothes, and my cousin thought carefully and prepared a set of thick clothes to avoid the cold weather. And Su Ting had already put all his things in the car.
The siblings were busy for a while, and then they cleaned up.
After helping his cousin get into the car, Su Ting's true qi worked, and he slapped his palm on the horse's body, surrounded by true qi, to avoid improper operation and loss of control for a while.
"Gone. ”
Su Ting didn't dare to drive the horse too fast, saving his cousin who was riding a car for the first time, and he was not very adaptable.
But it turned out that he was too worried, and when his cousin got into the carriage for the first time, Rao was calm, but he couldn't help but be a little curious, but there was no sign of motion sickness.
......
Near the temple.
Today, there are not many believers.
Song Lao relieved a few signs, which is to push the discomfort today.
In the eyes of others, this temple blessing's ability to unsign is naturally extremely high, such a profound character, every day, there must be a limit to the number of people, but I didn't say much.
The rules for people to unsign are placed here, and breaking the rules is not necessarily a good thing.
With such a push, Song Lao was idle and slowly walked out of the temple gate.
I went out of the temple gate and looked at it for a while.
After a while, the sound of horses' hooves was heard in the distance.
Song Lao said softly: "Su Ting is here. ”
Qingping only heard the sound of horses' hooves, but did not see anyone coming, and said, "This is the sound of a carriage?"
If it weren't for Song Lao's reminder, he would only think that the sound of the carriage came from the believers who came here to worship the incense...... After all, among the believers, there are not only the poor people of Luoyue County, but also the rich and noble.
Now that he heard what Song Lao said, Qingping suddenly understood.
"This coquettish fellow. ”
Qingping's cheeks twitched, and before he said this, he saw a horse's head poking out at the corner of the street over there.
It was a tall horse with a cart behind it.
And the one who drove was Su Ting.
I saw the horse's head turn around and make a turn.
The carriage slowly approached the temple.
Su Ting, who was driving, smiled and groaned, and gradually approached.
Song Lao put his hands behind his back, looked at the carriage approaching, and said lightly: "You really know how to enjoy it, and you also bought a carriage." ”
Su Ting got out of the car, gave a salute, and said with a smile: "Thousands of miles away, and carrying luggage, you can't walk on foot, right? ”
Song Lao was full of helplessness and shook his head slightly.
Qingping was about to say something to him, the Su family is now down, poor and acid, and dares to squander it like this, but the thought just came to mind, and suddenly remembered that he had stolen half of Chen Youyu's life savings here, and stole any treasures in the Sun family, so he suddenly had nothing to say.
At this moment, a slender palm lifted the curtain.
Su Ting hurriedly stretched out his hand and took his cousin down.
Su Yuefeng got out of the car, came forward, saluted, and said, "I've seen Song Lao." ”
Elder Song nodded and said, "The old man knows about your girl, and if you go today, you should have a smooth journey." ”
Su Yuefeng smiled and said, "Thank you Song Lao Jiyan." ”
Song Lao nodded slightly, looked at Su Ting, and said, "The old man has something to say to you." ”
When Su Ting heard this, he smiled and said, "The juniors also have something to give to the seniors." ”
