Seeing that Liu An was about to leave, the shopkeeper hurriedly grabbed him and said in a deep voice:

"That's it, that's it! Lang Jun goes and gets the rest of the refining, and after I have inspected it, he will deliver the goods with one hand and the money with the other. How about that?"

"Very good!" Liu An said with a smile, put Heilian on the counter, went out and brought in the other four horses.

Through the attitude of the shopkeeper, Liu An also roughly understood what the silk drawn by the system was in this era.

According to the shopkeeper, his black trainer costs 2,800 a horse, so the cost after excluding transportation fees, operating fees, market taxes, etc. may be more than 1,000. Liu An doesn't know the details, so he can only make a rough calculation.

The shopkeeper is willing to buy Liu An's black refinement at a price of 3500. In addition to no transportation fees, its quality is likely to be three times that of ordinary refinement, or even higher!

In other words, if Liu An wants to buy silk from the system himself, the price of one piece can be set at 10,000 yuan!

After Liu An brought all the silks into the clothing store, the shopkeeper checked them one by one and confirmed that the quality was the same as that of Hei Lian. Then he took out his calculation chips and started to make calculations.

After a while, the shopkeeper said to Liu An: "The total of 5 refined horses is 16,600 coins, or should it be converted into 1 catty of gold, 2 catties of silver, and 600 coins like yesterday?"

"Good!" Liu An smiled.

The shopkeeper took out the gold and silver cakes, weighed them in front of Liu An, and asked him to check them. After confirming, he handed them all to Liu An.

"If the young man still has such high level of refinement in the future, he can still bring it to me."

"Definitely, definitely..." Liu An accepted the money, agreed, and resigned.

After leaving Lu's clothing store, Liu An found a carpenter's shop in the market.

On the road, he saw a hawker selling bull martingale and bullwhip. Liu An bought a pair for 15 yuan, and when he got home, he could change them and return the pair from Liu Ming's house.

After searching for a while, Liu An finally saw a carpenter's shop on the northernmost side of the city's north market, close to the city gate.

Looking further north, starting from this carpenter's shop, all the way to the city gate, there are four or five consecutive carpenters' shops.

It turns out that these carpenters' shops are gathered in the northernmost part of Zhuo County. No wonder Liu An didn't see them all the way.

After tying up the ox cart, Liu An walked into the carpenter's shop.

There were some desks, benches, dressing tables and other furniture inside. When the waiter saw a customer coming, he greeted: "Guest, please come in~~"

Liu An waved his hand and said: "I don't want to buy anything, I want to customize some wooden boxes."

"I can't decide on this matter. Please follow me to the backyard to discuss with my master."

The waiter led the way, and Liu An followed around the back hall and came to a large courtyard.

There are things everywhere in the yard, including logs, planks, wooden piers, and some furniture, doors and windows that are being made.

Some of them were cutting wood with saws, some were assembling doors and windows, and a few were responsible for helping with things, and so on.

There were more than 20 people in the whole yard, and it was very busy.

The clerk searched around and shouted to a tall, strong man in dirty clothes in the yard who was instructing several people around him on how to assemble the wooden door:

"Master! Someone wants to customize a wooden box!"

The man raised his head and glanced here, then lowered his head and gave a few instructions to the people next to him, and then walked over.

When the waiter saw his master coming, he hurriedly ran back to the front hall, as if he was afraid of losing something and being beaten by the master.

When Liu An saw the man approaching, he bowed his hands and said, "Liu An, I would like to order a batch of lidless wooden boxes."

The strong man returned the gift, "I am Zhang Fu. I wonder what the size of the wooden box Liu Langjun wants to customize?"

This wooden box is used to place potatoes during germination. Liu An had already thought about the size, so he said directly:

"It's 3 feet long, 2 feet wide, and half a foot high. The depth inside is required to be at least 3 and a half inches. I want 100 of them. Master Zhang, please give me a price."

1 foot is about 23.4cm, 1 inch is 2.3cm. The wooden box made according to the specifications given by Liu An is very convenient for one person to carry, and the wooden box is thin, just right for spreading potatoes flat, and the wooden boxes can also be stacked.

Place.

It not only saves space, but also won't crush the potato sprouts, and it's easy to transport.

Zhang Fu thought for a moment and asked: "I don't know when Liu Langjun will need these wooden boxes. If it is not urgent, I can charge 12 yuan each."

"How long will it take to finish it if it is not urgent? How long will it take if it is urgent?"

"If it's urgent, it can be completed tomorrow at the earliest. If it's not urgent, you have to wait until Zhang finishes the work at hand, maybe ten days later." Zhang Fu said, looking at the busy work in his yard with some embarrassment.

's apprentice.

"How much does it cost to expedite the process?" Liu An said helplessly. Although he wanted to save money, ten days was too long. He would have to leave half a month for germination, and there would definitely be no time to plant potatoes.

"How about I charge you 15 yuan for each express delivery and can also transport the goods to your home for you?"

15 yuan each, 100 yuan is 1500 yuan, which is not bad.

Liu An calculated silently, nodded and said: "Deal! By the way, I also want to customize 3,000 ceramic tiles. I wonder if Master Zhang has any here?"

"It's ready-made, no need to customize it! Haha!" Zhang Fu was in a good mood after the business was done, "But it's stored in another yard. Why don't you come with Zhang to take a look?"

"No need, how to calculate the price?"

"1 money is 10 bricks. If the husband wants 3000, it will be 300 money. Zhang can also arrange to send it to the husband."

"In that case, I will leave 800 yuan as a deposit. The wooden box will be ready tomorrow. I also ask Master Zhang to send me the wooden box and the ceramic bricks together. I will come here to lead the way tomorrow, okay?"

"Very good!" Zhang Fu laughed.

After that, Liu An handed over 800 yuan to Zhang Fu, and Zhang Fu issued a receipt for Liu An, and the matter was settled.

Before leaving, Liu An spent 300 yuan to buy 20 saws, put them on the car, and led the cows to the blacksmith shop.

When he arrived, he saw many blacksmith shops in the market in the north of the city, and Liu An chose a smaller blacksmith shop.

I picked out a long sword and it cost 800 yuan.

Although Liu An has 5 precious knives in his inventory, he dare not take them out for the time being.

Firstly, he was afraid that he would not be able to protect himself, and secondly, he was also afraid that if Gongsun Zan saw him, comparing the two, he might feel that he had been deceived by Liu An.

Then I bought 20 axes, hoes and kitchen knives respectively, which will be used later to build the manor or grow potatoes.

Originally, Liu An wanted to buy 20 iron basins for spreading fertilizer, but at this time in the Eastern Han Dynasty, iron was still a relatively rare material, at least not so popular that everyone used iron basins as utensils.

Liu An had no choice but to tell the master of the blacksmith shop the specifications and asked him to help build 20 iron basins, and agreed to pick them up tomorrow.

It was just 20 iron basins. Liu An paid the full amount after collecting the receipt.

Because it is a small shop and has not received so much business for a long time, it is much easier for Liu An to negotiate the starting price than in those big shops.

Among them, the ax cost 700 yuan, the hoe cost 600 yuan, the kitchen knife cost 800 yuan, and the iron basin cost 1,000 yuan, totaling 3,100 yuan.
Chapter completed!
