Chapter 176: A Huge Purchase Before Winter!

Even so, a man and a woman were mentally strangers to each other. Every time at moments like this, even Guan Chibei felt a little strange.

However, after Guan Chibei pushed open the door today, he did not leave. Instead, he stood outside Ye Lulu’s house and guarded it.

Nowadays, the workers who built the wall at home were all men. Whether it was for the sake of protecting Ye Lulu or for the sake of gossip, he would stand guard for Ye Lulu.

The Guan family started the construction of the wall. The family had previously planned to spend five taels of silver on buying mud bricks.

Apart from this budget, there were still three taels of silver left from doing business.

Just as the Guan family was about to make a move, they noticed that the days were about right. After picking a day, the Guan family randomly selected a woman. That day, they sent Second Sister-in-law Guan and two men, Guan Chinan and Guan Chixi.

After putting away the money they had at home, they went to the city excitedly to buy supplies for the new year!

They were the most excited when they spent money.

Second sister-in-law Guan was bold, careful, and capable. Furthermore, she harbored the wonderful vision of buying supplies so that she could live in comfort during winter. It was difficult for her to calm down.

Second Brother Guan was Second sister-in-law Guan’s husband, so it was convenient for him to accompany her. He and Guan Chixi were in charge of following Second sister-in-law Guan around and carrying her things and stand guard.

The streets of Yuan City were quite wide, mainly because there were many merchants. They made way for temporary stalls.

This was also why it was easy for Mother Rong and the rest to set up a stall. The stalls in Yuan City had relaxed rules.

Second sister-in-law Guan was in a good mood. According to her initial plan, she went to the grain shop and bought fifty catties of white rice, eighty catties of corn noodles, and sixty catties of white flour!

They spent more than one tael of silver just like that!

There was so much food that they had to store it at the grain shop first. When they were to leave later, Second Brother Guan and Guan Chixi would carry them back together. If this did not work, the grain shop would need to get someone to help send it back!

These were the rules. Although there were many people who bought food during the new year, this order from Second sister-in-law and the rest could be considered a big one!

Then, they went to the condiment shop and bought sufficient condiments.

Clothes could be worn for a long time, but food would be consumed quickly. This was the most important thing. Condiments were not as expensive as grains for the people in the mountains because they were not so scarce. Sometimes, there would be many kinds of condiments in the forest.

Ye Lulu couldn’t figure it out, but this dynasty had imported many foreign seasonings.

The seasonings were eighty to ninety percent complete.

Furthermore, because Yuan City was a transportation hub, the prices of foreign goods were slightly lower, and condiments were not expensive in Yuan City.

However, this was also differentiated. The usual seasonings’ prices were average, but some expensive seasonings were still expensive. For example, the ones used for medicinal herbs, such as cinnamon, fennel, and so on.

Second sister-in-law Guan first bought some daily seasonings before buying others. As the Guan family needed a lot of seasonings for cooking, they needed a lot of star anise and cloves.

They had spent three hundred copper coins on seasonings. Oh my, this was a little frightening.

Ordinary farmers did not even need to use three hundred copper coins worth of seasonings for a year. Those who drank plain soup could eat as they pleased, so how could they bear to spend money on seasonings?!

In the end, the Guan family…
