Chapter 22 Buying a Carriage

Qiao Chu lay down and closed his eyes. At the same time, he pinched the Ling Ling Jue with his fingers under the quilt and started practicing.

As Qiao Chu took a long breath, Chen Qingshan discovered that the familiar and comfortable breeze was coming again.

"I'll go with you tomorrow." I don't know if Qiao Chu heard what Chen Qingshan said.

Early the next morning, Qiao Chu got up to wash up and prepare to go out, but found that Chen Qingshan was already waiting for him in the yard: "I'll go with you."

Qiao Chu nodded immediately: "Okay."

After traveling through time, this was the first time Qiao Chu went to the county town, and the memory in his mind was incomplete. There was no relevant memory of the route to the county town.

Without anyone to accompany him, Qiao Chu doubted that he would be able to find the place.

Even though he has practiced for thousands of years, as an immortal, Qiao Chu still has shortcomings. In addition to not knowing how to do housework, he also doesn't know the way...

"Dudu, I want to go." Three-year-old Qiao Sanshou ate his fingers and looked at Qiao Chu with a longing look on his face.

"Don't go and cause trouble to Auntie." Qiao Xiaofu calmly dismissed his little sister's thoughts. Before Qiao Sanshou was about to cry, he quickly said, "I'll ask Auntie to bring you some candy."

"Okay! Dudu buys Tangtang!" Qiao Sanshou stopped crying as expected. The tears were still hanging in the corners of his eyes. Before they fell, he started laughing.

"I want it too!" Qiao Erlu answered immediately.

"When aunt buys it back, I will share it with you." Qiao Xiaofu immediately promised.

So the two little ones stopped.

Qiao Chu really admires Qiao Xiaofu: an eight-year-old baby is very good at dealing with younger siblings!

Qiao Xiaofu handed Qiao Chu a piece of bamboo with a purchase list written on it in charcoal: two hens, one catty of salt, twenty catties of rice, twenty catties of cornmeal...

Good guy, Ling Ling totals over a hundred pounds!

Qiao Chu's eyes widened when he saw it: He's not a cow, how could he possibly carry so many things?!

Fortunately, Chen Qingshan took it in time, looked at it and said, "Okay."

This is what it means to prepare for everything.

"I can't lift it!" Qiao Chu quickly clarified.

"I'll take it." Chen Qingshan answered calmly, but Qiao Chu heard an inexplicable warmth from this very indifferent tone!

Why do you feel moved by this kind of thing?!

I must have been an immortal for too long, my personality is too independent, and my fighting power is too strong, so I have not received any love from humans for too long?!

After entering the county town, Chen Qingshan accompanied Qiao Chu to the grocery store and blacksmith shop. He also needed to buy needles and the best knife...

With all the purchases completed, Qiao Chu and Chen Qingshan went to the drug store again to buy catgut after the abdomen was opened, as well as some commonly used disinfectant medicines...

Chunhui Hall is the largest medical clinic in the county and also sells medicine.

Only Chunhui Hall sells catgut, which is not open for takeout on weekdays. When I heard that Qiao Chu wanted to buy catgut, the doctor Huang who was sitting in the hall widened his eyes: "What are you buying catgut for?"

"You just want to sell, why are you asking questions?" Qiao Chu glanced at him unhappily.

Dr. Huang: "...I'm just asking. If you don't want to say it, forget it." Actually, I'm just curious: Catgut is used to suture wounds. Usually only Dr. Meng, the best doctor in the medical clinic, can suture wounds.

, no one else can, but Doctor Meng doesn't accept an elderly apprentice like him.

So Dr. Huang wants to know who else in this county has this skill besides Dr. Meng?! Can they accept apprentices?

If you can learn a little bit, you can be more diligent in the future!

"Then I'll ask Doctor Meng." Doctor Huang said, turned around and went to the back.

There are many courtyards with front and back houses like this in the county. Chen Qingshan is used to it, and Qiao Chu can only wait.

Not long after, an arrogant doctor with a gray beard came out in a hurry. It was Dr. Meng: "Who wants to buy catgut?"

"Me." Qiao Chu raised his hand.

"You? What did you buy it for?" Doctor Meng immediately lost interest when he saw that she was a country girl with short hair and shabby clothes.

"Have fun!" Qiao Chu didn't like Dr. Meng's condescending way of speaking, so he simply didn't speak properly.

Doctor Meng: "...Okay! You can play...Ten taels of silver per foot."

"Okay." Qiao Chu agreed immediately, turned around and asked Chen Qingshan for some money.

Chen Qingshan, who was responsible for carrying the money, didn't say anything. He just took out the money, and he actually took out ten taels of silver.

"..." Dr. Meng left them speechless, and finally waved his hand and asked someone to bring the catgut to Qiao Chu.

After Qiao Chu left, Doctor Meng snorted with an unhappy expression, turned around and shouted to Doctor Huang: "How many of the various herbal seeds and fresh herbs with roots have been collected by the eldest lady?"

"We are collecting them. The seeds are easy to handle, but where can we find this old and fresh medicine?" Doctor Huang was also aggrieved: Did he endanger Chiyu?!

"Miss said, no matter what the cost, just spend money to buy it!" Dr. Meng emphasized.

"I know that too, but we are just a small county here and we only have two days. Where can we find good medicine if it's the right place?!" Dr. Huang's facial features were almost squeezed together!

"Then we have to do our best..."

Qiao Chu and Chen Qingshan bought all their things and were about to go home when they discovered that Chen Qingshan had picked up two large baskets: each basket contained a hundred kilograms of things, and the two sides added up to at least more than a hundred kilograms!

This is too heavy...

Even though Chen Qingshan looked very relaxed, Qiao Chu still couldn't bear it. After thinking about it, he asked Chen Qingshan: "Where can I buy carriages?"

Chen Qingshan frowned slightly: "I can pick it up." There is no need to hire a car to deliver it.

"What I mean is that we may need to enter the county town frequently in the future. How can it be more convenient if we have a carriage?" Qiao Chu's explanation made Chen Qingshan hesitate.

Today the two of them walked to the county seat and walked for an hour before arriving.

In the past, Chen Qingshan didn't think that the journey was very far, but today, with Qiao Chu walking beside him, Chen Qingshan felt a little awkward and always lowered his head to look at Qiao Chu's legs and feet.

With such small feet, I don’t know if it hurts to walk such a long distance? Are they tired?

After thinking about it, Chen Qingshan pointed to the east of the county: "There is a horse market over there, we can go there and have a look."

So the two of them went to the horse market.

The smell of the horse market was very offensive to the nose, but Chen Qingshan didn't seem to notice it, and Qiao Chu didn't care either: on the battlefield where gods and demons were fighting, what disgusting scene had not been seen before?

A lean and smart-looking man in his twenties, who must be an intermediary, came forward and said, "Boy, what are you buying?"

Qiao Chu looked around and said casually: "Buy a carriage."

The middle man's eyes lit up instantly: Buying a carriage? This is a big business!

"I wonder what price you two are planning to buy on the carriage?"

Qiao Chu's eyes fell on the northeast corner of the horse market. There was a black horse with gray hooves. It had a very tall frame, but it looked very thin. However, the horses around it did not dare to approach it...

"How do you sell the horses over there?" Qiao Chu pointed over there.
