Being scolded as a poor widow, I relied on supernatural powers to counterattack in ancient times

Chapter 692 Became a Scalper Once

Before Baiyunxi could ask, Xiaoer, who had finished her busy work, greeted her, "Ma'am, we have all kinds of harnesses in our house, and they are very complete. If you need anything, I will introduce it to you."

Hearing Xiao Er's tone, Bai Yunxi turned her head,

"I need to configure a set of horse gear. It doesn't need to be too complicated. You only need saddles, saddle pads, girths, stirrups, and reins. These are enough, and the rest don't need to be configured."

It may not be cheap to buy a complete set of harness, but if you have all the horses, how can you do without saddles?
Fortunately, Ma Congmin, who is in exchange, does not need too complicated accessories, just some practical items.

"Come on, our saddles are made of good materials, which means they are durable. Saddles are made of willow, elm, and birch. Saddle pads and reins are made of cowhide, sheepskin, or cloth..."

Listening to Xiao Er's introduction, Bai Yunxi nodded, expressing her understanding. Cowhide in this period is a luxury item, very expensive, so just PASS it.
After much deliberation, Bai Yunxi decided to buy a set of cloth harness first. The frame of the saddle is made of willow, which is considered the cheapest configuration.

Later, she had to ask her daughter if she would make saddle pads, reins, girdles and other items. Wouldn’t it be cheaper to buy cloth for embroidery and look better?
As for the leather material, it is too extravagant for her at the moment to buy.

Even so, it cost five pennies to buy a set, which made me feel distressed.

"I wonder if you have carriages for sale here?"

"Of course there are. The carriages are all in the backyard. If the aunt wants to see them, I will take you there."

Even though Baiyunxi chose the cheapest harness, Xiao Er was still very enthusiastic.

During this period, not many families could afford horses, and even the gentry in the town only used mules for transportation.

Bai Yunxi followed Xiaoer to the backyard. As Xiaoer said, the carriages are also divided into materials, except for the wood material, which is the carving process.The more expensive the wood, the more delicate and complicated the carving, and the price is correspondingly expensive.

Xiaoer looked at Baiyunxi and chuckled, "If you want to be strong and durable, old elm and pagoda tree are good choices. As for the price of birch and fir, the durability is actually similar."

Hearing Xiao Er's introduction, Bai Yunxi chuckled, and chose a locust wood boxcar, which cost six pennies, plus the saddle, and went out eleven pennies at once.

After paying the money, Xiaoer helped her pull the carriage to the street and parked it on the side of the road.

"Did Madam come here alone? This carriage is not light, why don't you leave the carriage first and call someone to pull it when you go back, or you can bring the horse here, just put it on and pull it away."

Hearing Xiao Er's reminder, Bai Yunxi was taken aback.

That's right, why didn't she think of bringing the horse here together?
The thing that was supposed to be put on and left now had to be dragged home by her.

Just when she was thinking about whether to go back and bring the horse over, she heard a cry from the other side,
"Get out of the way, hurry up and get out of the way, drive..."

As soon as Bai Yunxi turned around, he saw a mule cart whizzing by in front of him. Where the mule cart passed, there were panicked and avoiding figures.

"How can there be such a domineering family in this town? They don't care about the passers-by on the street, just rampage like this?"

Hearing Baiyunxi's dissatisfied tone, Xiaoer shook his head, "Oh, it looks like Zhao Bazi's condition is getting worse again."

"That was Zhao's mule cart just now?" Bai Yunxi narrowed his eyes, isn't it useless?It's not fatal, so why is it getting worse?
Hearing Baiyunxi's inquiry, Xiao Er couldn't help but sigh,
"People in the town say that the Zhao family has suffered retribution. Who made Bazi Zhao notorious? God couldn't see how he bullied men and women, so he just abolished him. I heard that Bazi Zhao was not reconciled. There was a commotion at home, and he kicked and injured three concubines who took care of him."

"I don't listen to the doctor. I cry and howl every day, which makes my condition worse. Doctor Cheng has been invited in several times, and I heard that he is dead..."

Speaking of this, Xiao Er suddenly slapped his mouth,

"Don't blame me, ma'am, I'm the one who speaks out loud and deserves to be punished."

Hearing Xiao Er's tone, the corner of Bai Yunxi's mouth twitched,
"It's okay, the natural retribution is not good."

"Who says it's not? I heard that Manager Zhao is going to take his son to the county town to see a doctor. There are probably patients in the car."

Xiao Er shook his head, clicked his tongue, abolished his sons and grandchildren, unless the gods took action, otherwise it would be useless to go anywhere.

Baiyunxi pulled the carriage and left the town all the way.

Fortunately, she has never given up on exercising, and she can still carry the load by pulling a carriage.

After walking for a while, Baiyunxi was tired and sweaty, so he could only sit and rest on the side of the road, looking up at the scorching sun, and fanning himself with a handkerchief.

After resting for a while, I pulled the cart home again, regretting that I didn't bring the horse, otherwise she wouldn't be pulling the cart like an old scalper.

"Huh, mother?"

Just when Baiyunxi was sweating profusely, she heard someone calling her. Looking at the ox cart that had stopped, Xiaosi and Wenyou both jumped out of the cart, walked up to Baiyunxi, and looked at her in surprise , and looked at the carriage again.

"Mom, what do you buy a carriage for?"

Bai Yunxi picked up the handkerchief and wiped his forehead, his clothes were mostly wet with sweat, sticking to his back, very uncomfortable,
"I bought a horse yesterday, and I got a box and saddle set for it today."

Seeing the two of them, Bai Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hands directly,

"Hurry up, tie the carriage to the back of the cart and let the ox pull it. I'm exhausted."

"Ah? Mother, you bought a horse? How expensive is that? Can our family afford a carriage?"

Xiaosi and Wenyou teamed up to tie the carriage to the cart, helped Baiyunxi to sit on the carriage, and asked curiously.

He has only been out for two days.

"It's all a coincidence, I just bought it."

Baiyunxi shrugged innocently. If he had known that he would configure the system after thinking about it, he would have already had a horse at home, and it would not have been delayed until now.

"How much did you pay for it?" Xiao Si looked at his old lady, and the horse was very expensive.

"One hundred..." points.

Before Bai Yunxi could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Xiao Si's surprised voice.He covered his chest with his eyes wide open, his face flushed with excitement.

"One hundred pennies is almost a season's worth of our family's harvest."

Even Wenyou nodded in agreement, "It's so expensive, it should be a good horse."

"I went back to see you and knew that your second brother was building a stable at home."

The corners of Baiyunxi's lips curled up, Maverick pulled three people in a car, and walked home leisurely.

Sitting in the car, Baiyunxi regained his strength before looking at Xiao Si, "What happened to the ducklings we talked about? The season is over, are they still hatching?"

"It can be hatched. I ordered another thousand ducks and they will be delivered next month. Before the cold weather, I can raise the ducks until they are half-sized, and they will survive the winter without any problem."

"That's good."

As long as the protection is done well, there is no season for raising ducks.

Their current breeding conditions are primitive, and they are fed with a mixture of various grains, bran and broken rice, and they grow relatively slowly.Feed it to about six catties in half a year, and it will be on the market at the end of the year.
