Crossing the Unknown Country

Chapter 342 Su He went to the market again

It was something she had never done before, so she was somewhat afraid. Yingying had grown up in the village and had rarely been out. Later, she had been following her around, doing housework at home, and the people and things she met were simple, so wasn't she afraid to go out?

Su He decided to take her out more often to broaden her horizons. Otherwise, she would be like a little wife and would be bullied even if she got married.

No matter where they are, the Su family members cannot be so weak, and no matter who they are, they cannot be irresponsible. Since she is by his side, he cannot let her be so timid and cowardly.

Su He's third day at the market passed again. This time she wanted to see if she could buy two cows. In the future, she would have animals to work on her own fields. Cows were better for ploughing.

When they arrived, they went straight to the old man Yin Shan. He was very happy to see Su He. When he saw her coming, he expressed his gratitude very sincerely. Su He also returned the gift and told him not to be polite, this is what he should do.

Su He asked Chang Yuan to translate for the old man and told him that in addition to wool, he also wanted to buy two cows. This way, when he returned to the village, he and his uncle's family would have one cow each, and they could also give birth to calves and take them to other farms.

The old man Yishan asked them to wait for a moment. He went to the side and pulled over two strong adult cows. He said to Chang Yuan: "Tell Miss Su He that these cows are very strong and you can use them when you go home. The price is still the lowest. You can ask for the price I offer."

As he spoke, he gestured. Chang Yuan often traveled between the two countries, so of course he knew that the price was very cheap. He told Su He how much it was and let Su He decide whether to buy it with silver or exchange it for something.

Since Su He came to find Yi Shan, he would not doubt the price offered by the other party and nodded in agreement.

Su He asked Chang Yuan to tell the old man: "Go and look at the things you brought in the car. Pick whatever you want. Su He will calculate it for you."

The old man was very happy when he heard this, and he still picked a lot of noodles. They had eaten this before, and it was very delicious. Noodles are easy to store, and this is very cost-effective for them.

Su He did not take advantage of others for nothing. He gave enough noodles according to the current price. No matter who you do business with, you must be honest and fair, so that the business can last long.

Both parties were very satisfied, and after exchanging the goods, they registered them and went back to their respective businesses.

Su He said to his father, "Let's leave someone to look after the cars, and the rest of us can go to the market! I want to buy some other things, otherwise we have to wait until next month's market."

His father immediately agreed to her, leaving two people to watch the car, and the remaining one followed Su He and her father to walk around. Su He had never had a weapon that suited her, and she had always wanted to buy a good dagger.

She heard that Dongjie's knives were well made, and they often used them to cut meat. They walked around the market, some buying jewelry, of course made in Dongjie, and mostly dairy products.

Su He bought a few jewels that he liked. The red and green ones would look good when they were set on jewelry. Su He is still designing jewelry for Wen Kaiyan's silver shop, but not so often, after all, it is not convenient for him to go there now.

Last time, I looked for the design drawings that the caravan brought back. This time, when I saw the gems I liked, I went back and designed a few more sets. This money was earned for free. As long as Su He thought about the jewelry he had seen, he could draw it based on the pattern.

At a stall in the market, a young man saw them coming and gestured to sell his dairy products. Su He, who had been following him for two days and could speak a few words of Dongjie dialect, asked him, "How much are these?"

When the young man heard that she could speak Dongjie dialect, he said directly: "Everything is weighed by jin, and each jin costs 100 wen."

He used the price of Ansheng, but he only accepted silver, not copper coins. Otherwise, he would have to buy more things and spend the copper coins. Dongjie Kingdom only accepted silver, not their copper coins.

Su He liked dairy products very much. She liked drinking milk in the first place. She bought all kinds of things made with milk and spent twenty taels of silver. She brought them back to her brothers and they could eat them as snacks. They were rich in nutrition.
