On the road to escape famine, others ate vegetables but I ate meat

Chapter 88: Buy, Buy, Buy, Renovate the Carriage

"Yes, Miss Lan, can you sell more?"

"We have silver, and we can afford to give any amount."

"It's not a matter of money. We also need to save some for tomorrow." Gu Yan said in a cold voice, "Only two skewers per person. No more. You can go back."

The others were very dissatisfied and unwilling to give in, and kept trying to persuade them.

Lan Yue finished the meat in her hand, wiped the corners of her mouth and hands, raised her eyes, and looked at those people with a cold and emotionless gaze, "If you don't leave, I won't sell you a single skewer. Don't try to blackmail me morally. This is a chaotic world, and I'm already a favor if I can sell you two skewers. If you keep pestering me, you won't get any."

Everyone: "..."

This young master's voice is so cold!

He doesn't look like someone you can easily mess with, so let's just run away!
"If you don't want to sell it, then don't sell it!"

"It's just a small amount of meat, and you still want one or two taels of silver. Who would care about it?"

The men grumbled something and left with the meat.

When Lan Yue doesn't speak, in the eyes of others he is just a weak, good-looking young man who poses no threat.

But as soon as she opened her mouth, her voice was so chilling that it seemed like she was not someone you could mess with.

Lan Yue was speechless.

These people are taking advantage of others and acting like a good kid.

Who would be a saint in this world? If you want to eat meat, you have to pay the price. Besides, she didn't force anyone to buy it.

"From now on, we won't sell meat to anyone who wants to buy it." Gu Yan said, "Some people are not worth selling to."

Others agreed.

The rest of the meat was roasted, so they started to roast it and eat it directly.

I have to say, although there is little meat, it is delicious!
The vegetables are delicious too. I didn't expect roasted vegetables to be so delicious! -
After traveling for several days, they finally arrived at the next county town.

There are not so many refugees at the gate of the county town. Maybe some of them have gone to other cities, or stayed in better places to settle down.

Since they were refugees, they had to provide a pass to enter the city, or a document proving that they were not illegal residents.

Lan Yue and his friends entered the city easily.

The county town is much larger than the ones I passed by before, and there are more stalls selling things. There is no war or natural disasters here, and there are many shouts coming from the streets and alleys.

"Let's buy separately. You guys go buy what you need, and Nan Yan and I will go look around other places and buy something practical."

No one else had any objection to Lan Yue's arrangement.

"Well, since there are more of us, let's buy more rice and bottles of water."

They need to eat and drink a lot during their journey, and also buy some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.

"Well, buy as you see fit. If you can't take so much, don't buy too much. Just buy enough for what you need." Lan Yue nodded. "You can also see if you want to buy a few sets of spare clothes. We are on the road all the time, and we can't wear clothes for too long, or they will get smelly."

The others didn't think of this, but once Lan Yue said it, they all took it to heart.

After the distribution, Lan Yue, Nan Yan and Gu Yan went their separate ways to buy what they needed.

After passing this county town, they still have to walk for more than a week before reaching the border of Nanzhou City.

"Nan Yan, let's go buy some clothes for changing." Lan Yue took Nan Yan into a store.

"Please come in, what kind of clothes would you like to buy?"

"Let's take a look ourselves. What clothes do you wear on a daily basis?" Lan Yue observed the clothes in the store. They were colorful and of all kinds.

"Young lady, please come this way. These are what we wear every day. They are simple and convenient for doing things." The proprietress took the two of them to a pile of plain-looking clothes. "You can take them away for only five taels of silver per set." "Well, Nan Yan, take a look. If you like any of them, pick three sets to change into." Lan Yue asked Nan Yan to choose by herself. "Don't feel embarrassed. Pick boldly."

Nan Yan's originally hesitant heart suddenly stopped hesitating.

She reached out to pick up some clothes. They had to hurry along the way, so they couldn't wear skirts that dragged on the ground, nor would they wear anything too complicated. After choosing for a long time, Nan Yan finally chose a jade-colored dress, a light pink dress, and a water-green dress.

Lan Yue also picked out four sets, three men's suits and one light blue women's suit.

Lan Yue paid the silver, and the two of them left the store with the packed cloth bags.

"Let's go look at the shoes again."

Lan Yue took Nan Yan and bought a lot of things along the way, until they could no longer carry so much, so they gave up.

After eating a bowl of noodles and packing six beggar's chickens, they met at the city gate.

This time, they didn't plan to stay in an inn or buy the things they needed, so they went straight out of the city.

There were so many things that they couldn't fit in the carriage.

"There are too many things, what should I do?" Looking at the pile of things in front of them, their carriage couldn't hold them all, and they felt a little annoyed that they bought too much on impulse.

"It's okay. I'll find a way." Lan Yue thought about it and concluded that she could put lighter items on the roof of the carriage, and also put a wooden board on the back of the carriage, so it would be no problem to put some things on it.

"I'm going into the city to buy some things." Lan Yue said, and went into the city again. When she came back, she had a lot of things in her hands.

"Why did you buy so many things?" Gu Yan stepped forward and helped to move the wooden boards away. He only had enough strength to lift one piece.

Lan Yue put the things down, took the wooden board and modified the carriage.

"You just watch from the side. I will modify the carriage so that it can store things." Lan Yue took the tools and hammered the nails.

After half an hour, the carriage was finally transformed.

Lan Yue added a rectangular wooden box to the back of the carriage, "Please bring over everything that can't fit."

"Wow!"

"Sister Lan Yue, you are so awesome!"

Liu and the others quickly put their things in.

"This way, if we buy more things in the future, we can put them here."

Lan Yue: "Well, the carriage has a relatively large bearing capacity. Even if we add one more box, it won't tip over. If we put more things in, there will be more space inside the carriage."

After putting their things away, they started on their journey.

There were quite a few people on the road, but not many had carriages.

As soon as it got dark, Lan Yue asked Doctor Ma to stop and find a place to rest.

The safer the place you get, the fewer people you will meet. The reason is that people who can get to a safe place are generally not the kind of people who are afraid of death and cannot endure hardship. These people are often rich and capable.

For example, them.

With Sister Lan Yue around, they can win without any effort!

There is no need to worry about eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping.

During this period of time, they all felt that they had gained some weight and became rounder.

Also, their skin is not very dark or rough, and they don't look like people fleeing famine or disaster.
