After randomly filling his stomach, Yunchao continued to shop.
I don’t have a ready-to-wear shop, so I buy a few pieces of cloth and make it myself.
Salt is very expensive, one hundred cents per pound, which is almost ten times that of rice!
It’s just coarse salt. If you want to buy fine salt, you will cost about one tael of silver per pound!
There are also cheap ones, thirty cents a pound, and a thing that is not much like a piece of dust or similar to a piece of soil. When cooking, it will be a bit salty.
Yun Chao came from later generations and was a graduate student at Agricultural University. He knew the harm of garbage salts. Who knows whether those inferior salts are poisonous?
I can’t afford one tael of silver per pound of fine salt, but can’t I still be reluctant to buy one hundred ounces of coarse salt?
Come ten kilograms!
There are also several sets of iron farm tools, hoes, plows, etc.!
People in Wolong Village use wooden farming tools, and iron farming tools are too expensive, and a set costs several taels of silver, so they cannot afford it.
And meat.
Lamb is expensive, more than 200 yuan per pound, and even Yunchao is reluctant to buy it.
The pork is cheap, and he even needs a hundred articles, so Yun Chao is still reluctant to buy it!
What the ancients didn’t like pork, the nobles refused to eat it, and the poor people didn’t understand cooking were all lies, and it was completely the imagination of the scholars and officials who were separated from the masses.
It may be true that rich people are disdainful of eating. It is pure nonsense for poor people to be unwilling to eat. They can’t even eat all kinds of grains and are unwilling to eat pork. Are you a fool when you are poor?
One hundred documents per pound is not something you are unhappy to eat, it is because you can’t afford it at all!
More than half of the fifty taels of silver have been spent, so Yun Chao dared not to mess around.
Since you can't afford the meat, just buy a pair of pigs and go into the water.
Compared with pork, it was cheap to go into the water. The meat seller didn't even weigh it, so he threw it to Yun Chao directly.
A pair of water was about thirty kilograms and five cents of silver. I also gave Yun Chao a few sticks to add to his head.
Seeing Yun Chao buys water, Lai Zhicheng dislikes him: "Yun Er, why are you buying this thing? It's so stinking!"
Yun Chao ignored Lao Lai and continued shopping. He spent three cents of silver to buy Lin Youniang a copper hairpin.
"Hmph, don't want those who have silver, and buy copper, and you won't be afraid of the price."
Lai Zhicheng's eyelids were twitching. Every time Yun Chao spent money to buy something, he seemed to be cutting his flesh.
Buy it, buy it, your little foster mother will be my future!
"Shopkeeper Wu, do you know where there are alkali sellers?"
I bought the things almost the same. Yun Chao returned to the grain store and asked casually when he checked out for Manager Wu.
"Alkali? Xiaolangjun, are you talking about the alkaloid used in medicine?"
"Asaltite? Yes, right, that is, ashite."
Listening to Manager Wu's tone, Yun Chao understood that Wu Chao had not eaten alkali. The soda stone he mentioned was probably the soda ash in nature.
Soda ash, the chemical component is sodium carbonate containing crystal water, which is widely present in nature and is mostly hidden in surface alkali lakes and mineral deposits exposed on the surface.
"There should be sold in the pharmaceutical shops in the west of the city. You can go and have a look."
After paying the bill, Yun Chao and Shi Tou got on the ox cart and asked Lai Zhicheng to catch the cart.
Driving a car is a craft job, not everyone can do it, especially a little bull who pulls the car.
Yun Chao and Shi Tou are both poor people and have not driven a car for rich people, so they don’t know how to operate it.
Even if Lai Zhicheng was reluctant, he had to be a coachman for them.
Lai Zhicheng was so angry that his teeth were itchy.
My dignified Wolong Village is the main one, but I am driving the car for you two little bastards, so you are not afraid of losing your life!
The one who left the city was at the west gate, and happened to pass by a pharmacy shop.
"Shopkeeper, do you have any stearite?"
"Yes, how much does the guest officer want?"
When Yun Chao saw what the pharmacy shop owner took out, he knew it was OK. Just smelling the smell, he knew it was alkaline and rushing his nose.
Although this is a natural thing, it is inconvenient to transport, so the soda stone is not cheap.
Three cents of silver per pound, Yunchao bought five pounds and spent one or five ounces of silver.
"Shopkeeper, if you have time to buy more, I may often buy it in the future."
...
Lai Zhicheng is worthy of being a sect. He has no idea how to drive a car. Although the road conditions are not good, he still drove the ox cart steadily.
"Shitou, learn a little from Mumama. If you can learn it, you will be able to drive this car in the future."
Shi Tou was very happy, staring at Lai Zhicheng without blinking, desperately remembering every move he made.
In ancient times, driving a car was a skill that was even better than driving in later generations. It was similar to the old drivers in the 1960s and 1970s. For the poor, it was definitely an enviable profession and a skill that could support the whole family.
Lai Zhicheng did not hide his own personal information this time. He has regarded Yun Chao's ox cart as his own property. It would be nice to learn how to drive a car in Shitou, and he can drive a car for their father-in-law in the future.
While rushing the car, Lai Zhicheng taught Shi Tou experience. Halfway through, he even asked Shi Tou to operate it himself, and he personally gave him guidance.
Shitou is very smart and learns very quickly.
When I returned to Wolong Village, Shitou had learned the basic operation and could barely catch the train!
"Muramasa, I've been busy all day long. Thank you for your hard work. Do you want to go to your house for dinner at night?"
Lai Zhicheng's nose was almost irritated. If you want to invite him to dinner, please don't be foolish. If you don't invite him, please ask me. When you ask, can I still lick my face and say go?
"Okay, since Yun Er, you are sincere, I will give you this face today."
Yun Chao was stunned. Unexpectedly, Lai Zhicheng was so shameless. You are the commander of a village. I am just polite. Are you really going to hit a snake and stick?
"Ahh, that's great. I'm worried about how to deal with these pigs going into the water. Please trouble Masada Murata to show his skills!"
"Ahem, Yun Er, I suddenly remembered that there seemed to be something at home at night. I won't go to your house for dinner today. It's not too late, so you two should go home quickly! By the way, Yun Er, I promise you what I promised
It has been done, don’t forget what you promised, go find me tomorrow morning!"
After saying that, without waiting for Yun Chao to say anything, Lai Zhicheng jumped out of the ox cart and left. No matter how Yun Chao shouted, he would not look back.
Just kidding, my dignified Wolong Village is here to wash the pickled pig manure and pig urine for you, and you can eat it in a dream!
As soon as Lai Zhicheng left, Yun Chao was surrounded by the villagers. To be precise, Yun Chao's ox cart was surrounded.
"Brother Chao, where did this ox cart come from?"
Yun Chao's performance in the past few days is really unexpected. Now the villagers basically don't call him Yun Er, but they all change their words and call him Chao Brother.
"Is it Muramasa's... Hey, it seems that this is not Muramasa's cow?"
"Look, this is a little bull, what a good bull!"
“…”
Yun Chao wanted to explain, but the villagers didn't give him a chance to explain, because everyone had discovered the things on the ox cart.
"Brother Chao, what's the car?"
"Wow, grain! So much grain!"
"There are also cloths! So much! It looks so good!"
"What is this... salt? So much good salt? Brother Chao, you're crazy and buying so many things, but are you?"
