Chapter 17 Buying a Donkey Cart
Looking at the two middle-aged men arguing over the donkey in front of them, Qin Chuchu moved over curiously.
"My donkey is a little thin, but I still have my cart with me. Look, it must be at least 60% new!"
A middle-aged man with dark skin said this while pointing at the cart behind the donkey.
Although I feel a little sad to sell the car, if I don’t sell it this way, I’m afraid I won’t be able to sell the donkey either.
"Those two taels of silver are too expensive! I don't think this donkey will live long!"
Another man pointed at the donkey he was holding with a look of disgust.
If he hadn't seen that he was selling the cart together with the donkey, he wouldn't have even looked at such a skinny donkey.
When Qin Chuchu came over, she saw that the two were still arguing.
The man leading the donkey saw Qin Chuchu staring at his donkey cart and thought that she wanted to buy it.
"Miss, do you want to buy a donkey? I'll sell it and the cart for two taels of silver!"
He stretched out two fingers and then began to explain to Qin Chuchu.
"Don't look at me as skinny as a donkey. I have a cart with me! And my cart is different from others'!"
As he spoke, he reached under the donkey cart, pulled out a wooden stick and propped it up on the ground.
He ran to the other side, took out a stick from below, and placed it on the ground.
Then he moved two stones and placed them on the wheel, and finally came to Qin Chuchu.
"Look, girl, my car can not only transport goods, but if you go on a long trip, you don't have to stay in an inn at night.
As long as you secure it like this, you'll have no problem sleeping on it!"
“…” Qin Chuchu’s eyes lit up.
It must be said that the man's words attracted her a lot, and she looked around the donkey cart.
After he did this, the donkey cart turned into a wooden bed on the road, and he could lie down and sleep on it without worrying about the cart overturning.
It's just that this donkey is too thin. No wonder the man just said it was skin and bones. It was not an exaggeration at all.
The donkey was not very big to begin with, and you could clearly see several ribs on its belly.
Seeing that Qin Chuchu was very interested in her donkey cart, the middle-aged man suddenly became excited.
"Girl, don't look at my donkey because it's skinny, but it's fine. I have a lot of housework to do and I don't feed it often. If you can make sure it's well fed every day,
I guarantee that within a month, they will be as fat as pigs!"
The man patted his chest as he spoke.
Qin Chuchu thought to herself, since she was not going to leave now, she had to improve her quality of life.
She needed this thing right now, and seeing the man's confident look, he probably wasn't lying to her.
Besides, it’s only two taels of silver, which is really cheap.
It is more than 5,000 miles to the Far North. If I were to walk on these two legs, my feet would be worn out.
It would be different if I had this donkey cart. Not only would I not have to walk, but I would also have a bed when I camped outdoors. It makes me happy just thinking about it.
"Okay! I'll buy this car!"
She nodded readily, took out two taels of silver from her pocket and threw it over.
How fitting! Prices in ancient times were so cheap.
"Oh! Great! This car is yours!"
The middle-aged man took the silver and smiled like a grandson. He helped Qin Chuchu collect the sticks under the car and moved stones.
The service attitude is so good.
Seeing that Qin Chuchu didn't even bargain for the price, the other man bought the donkey cart, glared at her sarcastically, and turned away.
It's a waste to buy such a skinny donkey for two taels of silver.
Qin Chuchu didn't notice the man's mocking look, and she felt happy looking at the donkey cart.
I asked for directions again and headed straight to the place where the carports were sold.
Now that I have a car, I have to build a shed so that I can stay inside when it is windy or rainy. It’s comfortable just thinking about it.
I thought a donkey cart would only cost two taels of silver, and building a cart shed wouldn't cost much either.
She never thought that it would cost her five taels of silver, but she was still very satisfied when she saw the brand new carport.
Considering that the donkey is too thin, the cart shed is made of woven bamboo, and the front is extended to the donkey so that it can be protected from rain and sun.
There was no door in the front, only a curtain was added as a cover, and a cabinet was custom-made at the back to store the cooking utensils.
This time we have a donkey cart to hide our tracks, and we can take any food from the space. The quality of life must be improved, and frying and stir-frying are inevitable.
While the carport was not yet installed, she went to the market and started shopping.
I bought some vegetables and snacks that were not available in the space, and also prepared some daily necessities.
I thought I wouldn't be able to buy much, but I ended up buying quite a bit.
Seeing that the carport was ready, she climbed up happily, took out an air cushion from the space, inflated it, spread it on the carport, and sat on it to feel it.
Not bad! This one even has a shock-absorbing function!
Seeing that the time was almost up, he hurriedly loaded the things he had bought onto the donkey cart.
Looking at the skinny donkey in front of her, she grinned.
"Brother Donkey! I'm counting on you from now on!"
The donkey stared at her with its big eyes, then looked at the shed above its head, and really followed her obediently.
The God of War followed behind, wagging his tail anxiously, staring at the donkey cart in front of him. Why didn’t my sister let him sit on it!
When Qin Chuchu turned around, she saw the anxious look on the little guy's face and pulled him onto the donkey cart.
"Okay! Then let you enjoy it first!"
As soon as the God of War was put on the donkey cart, he started to have fun, sometimes hiding behind the curtain, sometimes running out, looking very happy.
When they were about to return to the inn, they saw from a distance that the team had already stood in line, and everyone was craning their necks to look over here.
Seeing the princess coming back with a donkey cart, everyone looked at her with different eyes. They looked at each other, thinking that this woman was quite troublesome.
With such great skills, he actually made a donkey cart. But the donkey looks too thin, and it seems like it is sick.
Liu Qing stared at Qin Chuchu with a bad look.
This damn woman actually brought back a car. It really makes me angry to see it.
Seeing that everyone was staring at her and the donkey cart, Qin Chuchu was extremely happy.
I guess they didn't expect that they would come back with a donkey cart after just a short while.
Be envious! Be jealous! But be patient!
My good days are coming! You guys can only watch!
She suppressed her excitement and went to her old position, the end of the line.
When she passed by the Living King of Hell, she didn't dare look back at him, because she felt he was staring at her, and she ran back as if she had seen a ghost.
Han Muchen glared at Qin Chuchu coldly. This damn woman was so cocky that she had no limit.
Seeing that everyone was present, Zhao Yatou called on the team to start marching. Qin Chuchu, who was walking behind, was in a good mood.
She held the donkey in one hand and smoothed its fur, thinking that after getting familiar with it for a day or so, she would be able to ride the donkey cart leisurely like the God of War.
All I can say is that she was dreaming too much. At this moment, she didn't know that in the days to come, she would be embarrassed to the point of being disgraced!
