Traveling through time and encountering war, I took the whole village to escape famine

Yun Duo looked at the boy and finally chose to enter "Ping An Carriage Ride".

“You have come at the right time. We still have a few good horses left in the store. Many people have been buying horse carriages recently, so my family plans to sell these animals and close the store.

There were about ten horses and two mules tied in the yard. Two groups of customers were bargaining with the shopkeeper, and there was no other small work for the shopkeeper, who was very busy.

Cheng An looked at the few remaining horses one by one and selected them carefully.

"This horse looks good, with steady steps and bright coat. It's just the right age too." Cheng An said, pointing to a black horse.

Yun Duo nodded, then walked forward and touched the horse's neck.

"How much is this horse?" Yun Duo asked.

"You guys have really good taste. This horse is the signature horse of our store, so the price is naturally not cheap, two hundred and thirty taels of silver. If it weren't for the high price, it wouldn't have been kept until now," the scholar said with a smile.

Two hundred and thirty taels?! Yun Duo was shocked. This price was not low. She thought that buying a horse would only cost a hundred or eighty taels!

"Can it be cheaper?" Yun Duo tried to bargain.

"My lady, this is already the lowest price. If my family and I were not planning to go to the capital to seek refuge with our relatives soon, I would not sell this horse for 230 taels. A horse of this quality next door is sold for 250 taels.

If you think it's too expensive, you can take a look at the two horses. They are a little old, but they are good for pulling a cart except that they are a little slow. They only cost 150 taels." The scholar pointed to the other two old horses and said.

Yun Duo hesitated for a moment, then looked at the mule tied next to the horse and asked, "This mule is not bad either. How much is it?"

"If you want to buy this mule, you can buy it for 100 taels. To be honest, this mule is sold for taels. My father is going to sell the remaining horses and carriages so that we can set off earlier. If we wait a few days, even if this mule is less than taels, it may not be sold."

Yun Duo thought to herself, this price is ridiculous! But on second thought, what the scholar said makes sense. Many wealthy families have made plans early through internal information, so the price increase of carriages and horses is inevitable.

"Hey, young man, I want both the horse and the mule. Can you give me a discount?" Yun Duo pleaded.

The scholar was shocked and thought to himself, "You can't judge a person by his appearance!" Not only the scholar, but also Yun Qingbai and Yun Chenyang were extremely surprised. The horse and mule together cost 300 taels of silver! How could my niece (sister) come up with so much silver to buy a horse? However, although they were shocked, they did not spoil Yun Duo's business. Because they knew that Yun Duo was a person who knew what she was doing.

The scholar looked at the few people, and his eyes stayed on the older Yun Qingbai for a moment, as if asking with his eyes whether this young girl could make the decision. Seeing that the few people did not speak out to stop him, but just looked at him silently, the scholar knew what was going on.

"If you buy it together, I can give you a carriage. The carriages in our store are all made of good wood and they are sold for twenty taels of silver."

Yun Duo looked at the several covered carriages and carts parked in the yard. The carriages looked very exquisite and had sheds, so people sitting inside could take shelter from the rain on rainy days.

Yun Duo smiled at the scholar and said, "You are the young master here, right? How about this? I have bought the horse and the mule. You can give me a carriage and a mule-drawn cart. Is that okay with you?"

This smile made the scholar's ears red, but after all, his family was in business, and he was not confused by women. "

"Miss, this flatbed cart now costs ten taels of silver. How about this, if you add another ten taels of silver, I'll give you the harnesses for two carts, okay?"

"This carriage and cart are quite expensive, young master. A good carriage only cost ten taels of silver, and a cart only cost three or four taels of silver. A mule would cost thirty or forty taels at most. Horses and mules are so expensive, it's not a loss for you to give them away, right?" Yun Qingbai couldn't help but help Yun Duo negotiate the price.

"My dear customer, you may have heard that our northern border has been lost recently, and the people of Beizhou Prefecture are preparing to go to other places to seek refuge with relatives, so the prices of horses and vehicles have increased greatly. If my whole family is not also preparing to go to the south to seek refuge with relatives, we would not sell it even at this price."

In the end, Yun Duo gave 305 taels of silver to buy a horse carriage and a mule cart.

Yun Duo took out the silver note and gave it to Yun Chenyang, asking him and the young master to go and get the deed.

Yun Chenyang looked at the 300 taels of silver notes and five and a half taels of loose change that his sister handed to him. Because he still had to pay forty cents in tax, he gave half a tael more.

Yun Chenyang was a little at a loss. He didn't know that his family could come up with so much money to buy carriages, and they bought two at once.

Yun Duo put the silver into the silly eldest brother's hand, "Brother, why are you still standing there? Go quickly, don't you see so many people queuing at the door? My third uncle, Manager Cheng and I are waiting for you outside."
