Xia Hua bought the bucket for her, and An Shuyi put the gold ingots in one bucket, the silver in another, and the jewelry box took up one storage space. She bought an extra bucket because she would have more silver in the future, and one bucket wouldn't be enough to hold it all.
Now, the warehouse has sixteen storage compartments for food, one for bombs, one for a dressing case, one for toiletries, and one for a bath tub, all filled with clean water.
One box contained clothes, another underwear, one toilet paper, one jewelry, one land deed box, one venison (all cleaned), one tiger skin, and a red fox skin placed near Hua Hua. One box contained silver notes, one tea leaves, and one water bucket filled with gold ingots and silver.
These tea leaves need to be taken out and processed into tea. One is in the jewelry box, which is full of jewelry and headdresses that Hua Hua bought. They are not placed outside, but are all in the warehouse. One is for lighters, one for hoes, and one for bows and arrows. There are already thirty-three items in the warehouse, but there are not a single ginseng or lingzhi mushroom that can be sold.
However, we can look for these things in the mountains when we go to the capital tomorrow, and we won't lack them then.
She put the bucket in before the trading system disappeared. Xia Hua saw that she wasn't doing anything else and asked, "Are you all packed up?" She had packed her things very well; the silver was all in the box and then on the shelf.
The shelves were arranged in rows, with signs indicating where everything was. Cooking utensils were also placed on the shelves, while tables and chairs were located in the middle of the warehouse.
An Shuyi nodded, "It's all set. I now have 431,500 taels of silver. Even if the workshop doesn't have any business in the future, this much silver will be enough for us to live on for the rest of our lives."
Although she was very wealthy in modern times, it was all just a string of numbers. It's different from now, where you have the money in your own hands. It feels so different, not to mention all the jewelry.
Xia Hua looked at her with amusement, "That's all you're good for. You think 400,000 taels is a lot? You need to fill dozens of buckets with silver before you'll think it's a lot."
Although so much silver would be enough for them to live comfortably, they weren't lacking in the modern world either. They came here to enjoy life, and of course, to help the Lin clan members as well.
“Dozens of buckets,” An Shuyi thought of the buckets from earlier. She had put 330,000 taels of silver into one bucket, and it was only half full. Each bucket could hold 600,000 taels, so ten buckets would be more than 6 million taels. How much would dozens of buckets be? Oh dear, I can’t think about it anymore, my brain can’t keep up.
"Huahua, let's buy more jewelry when we get to the capital. Maybe if we travel back in time, we won't be able to buy these things in modern times, and they won't be as genuine as they are here."
“Okay!” Xia Hua nodded. “Buy more jewelry, and when we go hunting in the fall, we’ll catch a few foxes to make you a cloak. We’ll also keep some in reserve to make fur coats when we get back to the modern world. Those will look better than modern ones.”
Hearing Hua Hua say that, An Shuyi thought about what it would be like to go back to the modern world and felt happy. "But if we go back to the modern world, the trading system will disappear. Wouldn't all our preparations have been for nothing?"
"How can it be a waste of money? At least we can wear them for a while. If it really doesn't work, we can buy more when we get back to the modern world. We're not short of money anyway." As long as we have money, we can buy the real thing.
"Don't think about these things. It's still uncertain whether we can go back to the modern world. It's too early to think about these things. Let's see what Xiao Zili brought first." As he spoke, he looked at the boxes piled up to the side.
The fabrics were all the finest silks and satins, six layers in total, but the colors were all rather dark. Even if they were made into clothes, the two of them wouldn't wear them, so they could only leave them piled up here. There was also a pile of calligraphy and paintings, which the two of them would open and look at. If they found something nice, they would put it aside and pick out some to hang in the room.
The rest were boxes, some big and some small. The two of them opened the big box first, and found that it contained ornaments. This was good. Although there was furniture in the house, there were no ornaments. Now they could pick out some ornaments to put on the house.
After looking at everything, the large boxes were filled with decorative items, both large and small. The smaller boxes contained jewelry and head ornaments, which were quite intricate and ornate. Each person received some to place on their dressing table in the room.
Although you may never have the chance to wear it, you can keep it in your dressing table and look at it from time to time to satisfy your eye.
After putting away the calligraphy, paintings, and ornaments, the two went back to their room and hung up or arranged them properly.
After everything was done, Xia Hua said, "Shu Shu, everything's done. Go to sleep now, we have to get up early tomorrow." Then she went back to her room to rest.
They had just gotten up when it was already bright outside. They quickly washed up and headed to the workshop. Lin Changwu and the others had already eaten and were waiting there. They didn't even have time for breakfast. They grabbed an egg and a steamed bun and jumped onto the carriage to set off.
Looking at the two women rushing around, Village Chief Lin said, "Sisters, there's no rush. Have some porridge first; eating steamed buns on their own is a bit dry."
An Shuyi waved her hand, "No need, hurry up and get in the car. Your sister-in-law Xia and I still need to buy back the seeds for the rest of the grain. We'll plant wheat. In the future, apart from keeping some land for vegetables, we'll plant wheat on all the other land in the village."
"Okay, sister-in-law!" Village Chief Lin jumped onto the carriage and sat with them. On the way, An Shuyi told him what needed to be planted, as well as the flower seeds, and asked him to arrange them so that every yard could be planted.
After arriving in Jinnan City, An Shuyi parted ways with them. Xia Hua then told them to slowly drive the carriage there, looking around and buying things along the way. "Mu Tou, your sister-in-law and I ordered a set of jewelry from Cuiyu Pavilion. Here is the receipt. Come and pick it up in about twenty days."
The boss said it would take a month, so she added a few more days so she could get the wood when it arrived.
Village Chief Lin took the receipt and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'll come and collect it when the time comes."
Seeing that it was almost time, Xia Hua told them to drive the carriage to the house. When they arrived, An Shuyi had already taken everything out and placed it in the side room: wheat seeds, vegetable seeds, flower seedlings, grains, cloth, and everything she had bought the night before.
"Changyuan, Changwu, you are responsible for taking these things back. If you can't take them all at once, then take them in two or three trips. Here are the keys to the house. Lock the door when you leave."
Lin Changyuan took the key, "Don't worry, sister-in-law!" He opened the door and checked the contents of the room. This time, the right wing was completely filled with things, all packed in sacks. On the other side were vegetable seeds and flower seedlings, with notes attached to them.
After giving them instructions, An Shuyi returned to the carriage. Lin Wenming was in charge of driving the carriage. He looked quite strong and could not only drive the carriage, but also protect Village Chief Lin in the future. After all, he might be needed to handle matters between the two villages, and he could also familiarize himself with the area.
