They came to the place where bicycle frames were made, and Lin Zhixin asked for a larger frame.

The carpenter's hands were deft, and he quickly attached the frame to the ox. The ox cart was ready, but Li Feng didn't know how to drive it. At this moment, Lin Zhixin scratched her head in frustration.

Biyun saw her distress and asked, "Don't you all know how to drive a car?" Lin Zhixin nodded quickly.

Lin Zhixin said, “I want to hire someone to help me send the ox cart back.

"Okay, why not?

There are special servants here who do this job." Lin Zhixin heard this and said, "How about I go and ask?"

Lin Zhixin asked the owner of the car dealership, "Is there a servant who can help me take the ox cart back?"

We might even have him stay at our house for two days." The shopkeeper, upon hearing this, replied, "Sure. This carriage frame costs five taels and seven cents, and hiring a man for two days costs 350 wen. You can just give six taels."

Lin Zhixin paid the money readily. The shopkeeper called a servant and said, "Goudan, go and help this boss for two days."

Goudan sat in the front, driving the ox cart. Biyun, Li Feng, Lin Zhixin and the others soon got on. Lin Zhixin told Goudan, "We need to go to the cloth shop to buy some cloth, then to the grain store, and finally to Yufangzhai.

"Goudan was driving the ox cart slowly and came to the door of a shop called Jinxiu Cloth Shop. Lin Zhixin took Biyun and Li Feng in to buy some cloth and asked Goudan to wait outside.

Lin Zhixin bought eight quilts with quilts, eight sheets, and two sets of clothes for each of the adults and children, for a total of 8 sets. Biyun also helped her choose.

She also bought 20 cotton face towels. She originally wanted to buy pillowcases, but Biyun quickly stopped her, saying that it would be more cost-effective to buy cloth and make them at home.

Then he bought five pounds of cotton, two pieces of navy blue fine cotton, three pieces of coarse linen, and five pieces of fine cotton with beautiful patterns suitable for women to make clothes.

Li Feng hurriedly stopped her and said, "Mom, why did you buy so many? It's too many. There are only four rooms in the house, so four quilts will be enough. Let's buy eight." Lin Zhixin glared at Li Feng, and Li Feng was so scared that he didn't dare to speak.

He had wanted to ask earlier, but as he watched his mother buy more and more, he wondered where she got all the money. Was it really that easy to make money at the clinic these days?

But facing his mother's majesty, he didn't dare to say anything more. Lin Zhixin had her own plans in mind. She wanted to prepare sufficient supplies for her family.

After Lin Zhixin finished her shopping, she asked the shopkeeper how much the items cost. The shopkeeper, a short and fat man, was ticking away on his abacus as he quoted the price of each item to Lin Zhixin.

The shopkeeper kept talking: "Ten sets of cotton clothes for adults, 500 wen a set; ten sets of cotton clothes for children, 460 wen a set. Quilt covers with cotton wadding, 1 liang, 200 wen for eight sets; bed sheets, 300 wen for eight sets; 20 washcloths for face, 200 wen each.

Two pieces of fine cotton, etc., totaling 37 taels, 500 wen."

Biyun, who was standing by, spoke up: "Boss Wang, we buy all the medicines we use in our pharmacy from you. It's cheaper.

Shopkeeper Wang took a closer look and found that it was indeed someone from the pharmacy. He thought to himself: Could this be the legendary Doctor Lin who has been making a lot of noise recently?

Shopkeeper Wang even bowed and said, "I'm really short-sighted." Shopkeeper Wang continued, "I'll take the whole amount from you, 37 taels.

”林芷欣包袱里面还有 279 两 420 文,这下又花了 37 两,这下就还剩 240 两 420 文。

Lin Zhixin thought that they would buy other things later, so she asked the shopkeeper if he could send all these things to their village.

The shopkeeper said, "You bought so much, so I have to help you send it back." He immediately ordered the shop assistant to load the car. Lin Zhixin said, "I have to buy some other things later and come back to ask you to come with me.

The shopkeeper quickly replied, "Okay, okay."
