Chapter 143 Shopping in Guancheng
As for the courtyard where Prince Luo lived, Luo Huai finally bought the second courtyard he saw. The old prince himself was also very satisfied after seeing it. Anyway, it was enough for the second and third wives to live in.
If you still want the same treatment as before in Luo Wangfu, you definitely won’t get it.
…
"Third brother, be careful. That's my only piece of jewelry. If it breaks, you have to pay me back!"
Luo Fu felt her heart tighten when she saw her third brother moving things carelessly.
The little girl in her arms was also making a lot of noise, as if she knew that today was the day they moved into their new home. She clapped her hands happily and giggled all the time.
Luo Xiao laughed at him, "Look how upset you are. It's just a jade bracelet. If it breaks, I'll buy you another one."
Luo Fu patted the child and chuckled, "Look at how capable you are! Where did you get the money?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Xiao bumped into the pillar next to him as he walked out the door. He had too many things in his hands, the wooden box fell, and the jade bracelet shattered with a snap!
Luo Xiao quickly looked up and gave a flattering smile.
Luo Fu was furious: "Third brother!"
"Don't get excited, I'll compensate you, isn't that okay?" Luo Xiao said quickly.
Luo Fu didn't believe it: "Where do you have the money?"
Looking around, everyone was busy, so he hurriedly whispered, "You think I came here early for nothing? Don't worry, Third Brother still has some money. If you want to buy anything in the future, just tell him."
Luo Fu's eyes lit up brightly: "Really?"
Luo Xiao raised his eyebrows and muttered, "But mother is the one who is really rich. You better not offend people like before!"
Luo Fu curled her lips and rolled her eyes at him, "Do you think I'm stupid? I changed a long time ago, okay?"
"Hehe..." The little baby laughed appropriately. Luo Xiao couldn't help but lower his head and grinned, "You want beautiful jewelry too? Don't worry, wait until Third Uncle saves some money, then I'll buy our little treasure a big box of jewelry for you to play with, okay?"
Luo Fu immediately sneered: "Third brother, you are just bragging!"
Luo Xiao placed the quilt on the cart and snorted, "... forget about your jewelry!"
"Hey, don't..." Luo Fu hurriedly chased after him with the child in her arms, and finally managed to make him laugh again.
There weren't many things in the big room, so at most two carts were full.
But there was still some leftover food, so Zhu Mingqing gave it all to Lianghe as a thank you for the journey.
A group of people carried their belongings to the newly purchased mansion, while Prince Luo returned to the second courtyard with his wife and the other two families.
When Tian looked at the house in front of her, she knew that the old man still had money. She winked at the second and third sons, and they immediately stepped forward to help the old man into the house.
"Dad, just have a good rest. We can find someone else to do the dirty work." Luo Wenhong wiped the teacup and handed over a cup of freshly boiled water.
"Dad, you must be tired. Let me give you a shoulder massage." Luo Wentao also hurried forward to help.
Luo Wen'an, who had always been like an invisible man, quietly cleaned up the courtyard that had just been allocated to them with his wife.
Here, everyone was fighting for the old man's care and love, and the two of them began to compete secretly.
As for the main house of the Luo family, because the yard was big enough, each child was assigned a yard. Although it was much worse than the Luo Prince's Mansion, the scenery was also very desolate, with trees leaning to the ground. It was probably caused by the thunderstorm that had not been dealt with in time.
The entire house covers an area of two acres, and there is a small garden in the backyard. Zhu Mingqing plans to use it to grow flowers, fruits and vegetables, but it is too early to say that now.
The most important issue now is to buy things to add some vitality to the empty yard.
Early that morning, except for Wu Yunyun, who was still in confinement after giving birth, and the little girl who was just over ten days old, all the other children gathered in the main hall.
Zhu Mingqing came in holding a small box, which made a loud thud when he placed it on the table.
Judging from the weight, it’s not light.
When the box was opened, there were money bags inside.
"One for each person, two hundred taels each, to buy some daily necessities for yourself." Zhu Mingqing said.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes lit up.
Wen Baolu and Wen Baozhong were also among them. They were incredulous: "We're among them too?"
Zhu Mingqing nodded. "All of them, but after we finish shopping today, I'm going to hold a family meeting tomorrow to discuss our family's future development path. During the meeting, everyone must put forward their own ideas."
Several people were dumbfounded. They had to hold a family meeting?
Luo Fu was even more depressed. What did this have to do with her?
If her third brother could make money, she would just eat and drink and get married in a few years.
"Alright, stop standing there. Let's go out together after breakfast." Zhu Mingqing patted the table. "By the way, remember to keep track of your purchases."
We must first cultivate these people's financial management habits, otherwise they will think that money comes from the wind.
After breakfast, the group came to the busiest commercial street in Guancheng, followed by Wu Xing and others who came to move things.
Because Zhu Mingqing paid them to protect his family.
The monthly salary is quite a lot, more than what I earned from escorting goods before, and I don’t have to run around everywhere, it’s stable.
At that moment, Chief Escort Wu decided to move to Guancheng with his apprentices and family.
Although this decision was hasty, a year later, Wu Xing thought about his decisiveness and couldn't help but want to go out and treat himself to a delicious meal.
Now, when moving to a new house, the most important thing is to prepare quilts, clothes and bedding, which are all ready.
All the people in the main house and the people from the upcoming escort agency were working for him anyway, so Zhu Mingqing bought a total of fifty quilts. It took him two shops to buy out all the quilts.
Three trucks went back and forth, and the goods were transported twice, which made the shopkeeper cover his mouth and laugh.
Guancheng is a large place with few people, so news spread quickly. In a short while, all the shopkeepers knew that a wealthy family had come to this street.
Pots, pans, pens, ink, paper, and inkstone, toiletries...
Qiao's Cloth Shop.
When Shopkeeper Qiao saw Zhu Mingqing coming in, he immediately rushed over and said, "What does Madam need? Please take a look. We have all kinds of fabrics, including coarse cloth, silk, and gauze."
"You all have good temperaments, and I have some fine ready-made clothes here. I hope you gentlemen and ladies will like them."
The shopkeeper Qiao was a lady. Her mouth was as sweet as honey, and she praised everything as if it were free. Luo Fu was a little dizzy, and she took more than ten pieces of clothing in a row.
It was not until she came to the bill that she realized what was going on, but when she saw that her mother had no objection, she happily paid.
Luo Huai and Luo Xiao had to restrain themselves a little. As for Luo Feng, who had not received any money before, he could only work as a porter in a wronged manner.
"Have you made your choice?" Zhu Mingqing asked them.
A few people nodded and paid the bill.
Then it's her turn next.
Take this opportunity to buy more, and then take out the things stored in the Immortal Palace.
Zhu Ming turned and looked at Shopkeeper Qiao with gentle eyes, but his words almost made the other person drop his jaw.
"These, these, and those over there..."
