Chapter 102: Buying a Carriage
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Yundong first brought Feng Daneng for lunch. It was the best restaurant in the county, Yuexiang Restaurant.
Feng Daneng only knew that the food in this restaurant was good, but he had never been willing to come in to eat.
He did not expect to take advantage of Yundong and taste the food at Yuexiang Restaurant.
It was delicious, but it was too expensive and the portion was small. Just a palm-sized dish cost thirty copper coins. Feng Daneng felt sorry for Gu Yundong’s money.
However, this girl was very generous. After eating, she asked Feng Daneng to bring her to the market. She wanted to buy a carriage.
“You want to buy a carriage?” Feng Daneng was surprised. This Gu girl who had escaped from the wilderness was indeed more capable than he had imagined.
He thought that it would be good enough if she could take out a hundred taels of silver to build a house. He did not expect that she still had the money to buy a carriage.
Gu Yundong nodded. “It’s convenient to buy a carriage. If we hadn’t taken someone else’s mule cart into the city today, we wouldn’t know how much time we would have wasted. Moreover, my sister-in-law is still young. With a carriage, we can bring them to the city to play.”
Gu Yunshu and Gu Yunke rarely had the chance to go out and play. In the past, when they were in the Gu family, Gu Yunshu was probably the only one who had gone to town. Later, they were on the way to escape. This time, they went far, but they did not have the leisure to stop and take a good look.
Now that she had settled down, she had money on hand and could send Yunshu to school. In the future, she would bring them out to play whenever there was a festival.
“If you want to buy horses, you have to go to the market on East Street, which specializes in selling livestock. It’s just that it’s already past noon. 1 don’t know if there are any good horses.”
Gu Yundong nodded. “Then let’s go to the market in East Street to take a look.
If we can’t find anything good today, we’ll come back another day.”
Feng Daneng laughed and led her to East Street.
After noon, the market was not as lively.
Feng Daneng knew someone here. He was a smart kid who looked after the place. He directly brought them to the innermost part of the market.
“Uncle Feng, you’re lucky today. Just now, the broker from the Wan Family brokerage brought three or four horses over. I’ve seen them. They’re better than the ones sold this morning.”
Feng Daneng perked up. “Really? Hurry up and bring us to take a look.”
The horses were indeed good horses, but they were also not cheap.
Gu Yundong was not very good at checking horses, but Feng Daneng had some experience. In addition, the kid beside him helped to bargain. In the end, he bought a strong brown-haired horse for 15 taels of silver.
This horse was quite friendly to Gu Yundong, and she liked it. It was not old, so she decided that it was it.
When the broker asked her if she wanted a carriage, she definitely did. However, there was no need for it to be too gorgeous. After all, she often went back and forth in the village. It was all dirt.
In the end, Gu Yundong chose an ordinary-looking but sturdy carriage. She put on the horse rope and could leave.
This carriage also cost three taels. Tsk tsk, it was expensive.
But now that she had a carriage and a house, Gu Yundong was very satisfied.
After the carriage was bought, Gu Yundong wanted to go to South Street to buy something. It was prosperous there and was close to the city gate.
Feng Daneng was a little excited as he drove the carriage.
Men loved vehicles, regardless of modern times or ancient times, even if this vehicle was not his.
The two of them took the carriage to the east street. Unexpectedly, when the carriage passed by the back road of the Peng Residence, the door of the Peng Residence opened and a person was thrown out heavily.
If not for Feng Daneng’s sharp eyes and quick hands, the horse would have been shocked..
