The first amount of money Hu Luanfei received in ancient times was three hundred and fifty taels. The shopkeeper felt pain in his heart while asking people to unload the goods.
She put the banknotes into her clothes on her chest with a smile, and walked out of the gate of Baishan Hall with fifty taels of silver.
Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper called her back and said, "Miss, we also sell medicinal herbs here. If you have any, you can sell them to me. The price is negotiable."
Hu Luanfei readily agreed, "Okay, if I'm lucky in the future, I'll definitely come to do business with you."
"Okay, okay, take care girl."
After bidding farewell to the shopkeeper and leaving Baishan Hall, Hu Luanfei took Qi Siliao to the clothing store and bought several sets of winter cotton-padded clothes and quilts.
She spent more than twenty taels of silver, and used the rest to buy oil, salt and the vegetable seeds she had been longing for.
When Qi Siliao came out of the dressing room, the man wrapped in new clothes looked extremely handsome. His handsome eyes and sharp facial features were simply stunning.
It really is true that clothes make the man and saddles make the horse.
"Ahem..." He coughed lightly, bringing her back to her thoughts.
Hu Luanfei realized belatedly that he was mesmerized by the scene and smiled awkwardly, "I didn't expect you to be so pretty. You're really good-looking."
As the emperor's brothers, which one of them is ugly? She really knows how to lie with her eyes open.
However, her sudden change of attitude was suspicious, and even if she bought him new clothes, it should not be taken lightly.
"This prince has a beautiful face and has always been the most popular among women in the capital city."
"Oh, really." Hu Luanfei didn't care much about it. What he blurted out was even more hurtful. "A friend in need is a friend indeed. Have you ever counted how many women left you when you fell into poverty?"
Qi Siliao: ...
Hu Luanfei had a lot of clothes and didn't plan to buy new ones. He was content as long as he got what he wanted.
She looked at the sky and prepared to go home, but Qi Siliao stopped.
She followed his gaze and saw a blacksmith shop opposite the clothing store. Inside the shop were all kinds of weapons, including swords, bows and arrows, halberds... some of which she had never seen before and couldn't name.
Looking back again, he looked at her with hooked eyes, and a hint of cruelty flashed in his dark pupils.
However, as if he had noticed her gaze, he suddenly turned around from looking at the blacksmith shop. His cold and somewhat indifferent eyes were just like when they first met, aloof and cold.
Hu Luanfei seemed to be strangled by something and suddenly couldn't utter a word.
Fortunately, the time I looked into his eyes was not too long. It was only a moment before I looked away.
"What else do you need?" Hu Luanfei swallowed and asked cautiously.
"No need." After saying that, he walked ahead and got into Uncle Niu's car, which was full of daily necessities. Against the backdrop of the flying snow, his lonely figure was tinged with an unattainable loneliness.
Suddenly, this man with Arctic ice and snow in his eyes seemed to occupy all the places in her heart.
"Do you need a weapon?" She somehow managed to ask an idiotic question.
She knew what Qi Siliao needed best. Because of the suspicion of the new emperor, he was forced to come to the barren land. What he wanted was nothing more than a chance to return to the battlefield and protect the capital left by his father, instead of messing around in this godforsaken place.
Qi Siliao turned his head to look at her. There was no thought or hesitation in his eyes, not even a hint of emotion. It was completely unfamiliar.
“I don’t need anything,” he said.
Why does such blatant lies make people feel a little unhappy when they see her in front of them?
She got in the car and sat face to face with him. She didn't know what had irritated him, but he didn't say a word the whole way.
When the ox cart passed by the city gate, it suddenly heard someone selling sheep.
Hu Luanfei suddenly remembered the news he had read before, which said that beef and mutton have high nutritional value and were the most popular meats among dignitaries in ancient times. It is said that they have even been branded in a certain place.
She took a casual look and saw that the vendor was holding a ewes. The idea of selling goat milk suddenly came to her mind. But how to store the goat milk here?
"Uncle Niu, wait a moment!" Hu Luanfei stopped the car, got out and ran straight to the vendor.
When the vendor saw the customer coming, he raised his eyes, then lowered his head and squatted aside to wait.
"Aren't you going to sell this sheep?" Seeing that he didn't look very interested, Hu Luanfei couldn't help asking.
The vendor waved his hands and said, "I don't sell sheep to childless people."
"Huh?" Hu Luanfei was stunned for a moment, "You're still picky about who you're selling a sheep to!"
The vendor sighed, "I don't want to pick it either. This sheep just gave birth and the lamb was frozen to death by the snow. The ewe has swollen breasts and is often restless and cries frequently. No one in my family wants to drink goat milk, and I can't bring myself to kill it, so I had to drag it out and see which family with babies will buy it. It would also be good for the ewe to squeeze it when I have free time."
Hu Luanfei looked at the absent-minded Qi Siliao, thinking that it would be a good opportunity to give him more supplements, so he said to the vendor in a friendly voice: "I'll pay one tael of silver, you sell it to me..."
"Who are you looking down on?!" The vendor pulled the sheep back unhappily. "I can sell this sheep for at least five taels. If you don't want to buy it, don't block my business. Besides, I don't want to sell it to you."
"Five taels?! Can a sheep be sold for that much?"
"Why not? A mature ram can be sold for more than ten taels."
Hu Luanfei was shocked: "Is the ram so valuable?"
"Yes, if you really want it, I'll sell you this ewe for five taels."
Hu Luanfei weighed his purse, frowned, thought about it, and hesitated for a while, "Can it be less? The price is too expensive."
The vendor thought she was an expert and couldn't help but lower the price. "If you're really short of money, three taels is fine. It's getting late and I have to go home to herd cattle."
"Three taels?!" Hu Luanfei stared at him suspiciously and started to bargain, "It's still too expensive, one and a half taels!"
The vendor immediately yelled, "My whole family doesn't need to eat. If you don't want to buy, leave now and don't disturb my business!"
Hu Luanfei was driven away by the vendors, staggered, and felt very unhappy. "Well, it's a free trade. If you don't want to sell, then don't sell. I don't believe that there are no other places to sell sheep except yours."
Before she took two steps, her arm was grabbed. The vendor showed an embarrassment, but his attitude and tone became more friendly. "Girl, one and a half taels is too little. How about this? As long as you give me two taels of silver, I can take the sheep away immediately."
Hu Luanfei shook his hand away in disgust. "Didn't you say you wouldn't sell it to someone without children? Why did you compromise this time?"
The vendor smiled apologetically, "It's because of the pressure of life. My whole family is waiting for me to sell the sheep to buy New Year's goods."
As a modern person, Hu Luanfei understood the usual style of businessmen. However, considering that he really wanted the sheep, she took out two taels of silver and stuffed it into his hand. "Okay, this won't happen again."
