The old man said: "East Street, go straight along this road until you reach a clinic called Jishitang, then turn right.

Walk about a hundred meters and turn left, then go straight and you will reach East Street. Remember that?"

Lin Han sorted out the route in his mind: "I understand. Thank you, sir."

Uncle: "No need, it's just a small favor."

Lin Han: "Let's say goodbye now."

After saying goodbye to the old man, Lin Han followed the route the old man told him.

About quarter of an hour later, Lin Han finally arrived at East Street, which was very different from North Street.

Most of the shops on North Street sell groceries, while most of the shops on East Street sell cloth and ready-made clothes, as well as some tailor shops.

Lin Hanyuan thought that even if Uncle Wang told him which shop had the best cloth prices, he might not be able to find it.

It was not until he arrived at East Street that he realized he had overthought. The clothing store that Uncle Wang had told him about was easy to find. He saw the sign of the store as soon as he entered East Street.

The name is quite nice, it’s called Nishang Pavilion.

Lin Han walked into the store, planning to buy two pieces of cloth and then go to the next place to buy other things.

As soon as he walked into Nishang Pavilion, he saw that the store was crowded with people. Seeing so many people coming to this store to buy ready-made clothes or cloth, Lin Han felt relieved.

Because there were too many customers in the store, the clerk was too busy to serve him.

Lin Han started looking at it himself, wondering what color cloth would be more suitable.

Lin Han: I live in the village and I go hunting in the mountains from time to time. I should buy darker colored cloth, after all, it is more resistant to staining. Okay, that’s it.

After Lin Han decided what color cloth he wanted to buy, he started to pick it out on his own. After he finished choosing, he asked the shop assistant to pay the bill.

Lin Han: "Hey, check out."

Guy: “Hey, come on.”

A shop assistant walked up to Lin Han and asked, "Hello, sir. Would you like to buy cloth or ready-made clothes?"

Lin Han: "I want to buy two pieces of cloth. I've already chosen the colors: navy blue and brown. Considering my body shape and height, what size cloth should I buy?"

The clerk was very happy that he sold two pieces of cloth without saying a word, so he treated Lin Han with extra enthusiasm.

He sincerely analyzed for Lin Han: "Sir, with a tall and straight figure like yours, the size should be larger than that of an average person, so I suggest you buy four feet of cloth for each color.

Besides, even if you buy too much, it won't matter. You can use the leftover cloth to make other things. Buying too little will be a problem, right?"

Lin Han thought about it and felt that what the clerk said made sense: "Okay, then let's do as you say. I want four feet of cloth of each color."

The waiter said: "Okay, sir, the two pieces of cloth you picked are both colorful and the material is also good.

So, eight cents a foot, and you want eight feet in total, which is sixty-four cents."

Lin Han: “Okay.”

Lin Han paid the money to the waiter. The waiter was obviously used to doing this and practice makes perfect. He picked up the scissors and quickly cut out two four-foot pieces of cloth.

After the guy cut the cloth, he folded it neatly and gave it to Lin Han.

Lin Han took the cloth and put it in his backpack. Fortunately, the old man gave him an extra-large leaf when he bought potatoes.

The leaves were big enough to cover the entire bottom of the backpack, not to mention the five pounds of potatoes.

Fortunately, he had this leaf, otherwise his newly bought cloth would have been stained by the potatoes.

Although Lin Han has the habit of washing new clothes before wearing them, these two pieces of cloth still need to be used to make clothes for Qin Qin first.

The cloth has been bought, and now the only thing left to buy is food. Once the food is bought, the things he came out to do today will be almost done.

Lin Han thought happily: After I buy the food, I will find a store to eat. At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, I will go get the iron pot back and then I can go back to the village.

Because the only things he had left to buy were food and seasonings, Lin Han ate a big bowl of wontons after arriving in town, so he was not very hungry now.

He was no longer so anxious to buy things, although he had not been in a hurry at the beginning.

He walked slowly, observing the shops around him as he walked.

He had been walking around for such a long time but hadn't seen a single shop selling pastries, but he had seen several shops selling buns and steamed buns.

Lin Han: It seems that this dynasty is the same as the original owner's memory. Everything is quite developed and there are a wide variety of food.

It’s just that pastries have inexplicably become discontinued. Almost no one knows how to make pastries, and there are almost no shops selling pastries.

Because Lin Han was walking leisurely, he didn't know how long he had been walking or where he was going.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he saw a shop that looked like a pastry shop with a high-sounding name - Pinwei Xuan.

Lin Han: It’s not easy, I finally saw a shop selling pastries. I have to go in and see what they have.

Lin Han walked into Pinweixuan, wanting to see what kind of pastries were sold in the store. Unlike the crowded Nishang Pavilion, there were only a few people in Pinweixuan.

Their clothing is also very different. Most people in Nishang Pavilion wear cloth clothes, and the cloth is almost never dyed.

The clothes worn by the guests in Pinweixuan are all colorful, mostly dark blue and black.

There were even young men in long robes who looked like scholars at first glance.

There were only two waiters in the shop, who were very lazy and only had good faces for servants or scholars from wealthy families. They were expressionless and ignored ordinary people.

When Lin Han walked in, they saw his attire and felt that he looked neither like a scholar nor a rich man, so they ignored him.

This made it convenient for Lin Han to act. He had originally only intended to come in and take a look, and had no intention of buying anything.

Lin Han walked around the store and found that there were very few types of pastries, only three kinds: red bean cake, mung bean cake and water chestnut cake.

Not only are the types and quantities small, but the prices are also high.

These cakes are sold by the piece, and each one costs five cents. What does a cent mean?

The price of pork in the market today is only twenty-five or twenty-six cents per pound, so five pieces of cake are equivalent to one pound of pork.

Moreover, the pastry was so small that Lin Han could finish one in one bite.

After looking at all the pastries, Lin Han still planned to buy one to try and see how well the pastries were made.

He stopped in the store for a long time and asked the shop assistant to pack his food: "Hey, pack it for me. I want one piece each of red bean cake, mung bean cake and water chestnut cake."

Maybe it was because he bought a small quantity, the clerk's face looked very unhappy, and his tone was lazy when he responded to Lin Han.

The waiter said, "Okay, five cents a piece, three pieces makes fifteen cents. Take it."

As he said that, the waiter quickly packed up the three pastries and handed them to Lin Han.

Lin Han took the pastry, said thank you, and turned to leave.
