Transmigrated To Ancient Time: Thrive With An Auction System!

Chapter 215: Rumors ( 12 )

With a horse, it only took Yao Zhi 15 minutes to reach the warehouse. After she changed the locks with the padlocks she bought before, Yao Zhi took out deer and reindeer pelts from her husbandry warehouse.

Thanks to the time speed inside being faster than outside, the deer and reindeer multiplied very fast. The amount of pelts stored in the warehouse was more than 50,000 of each type. She took out 5,000 pelts of each and filled the smaller left-side room.

When she was done, she filled the right-side room with 100,000 century eggs and 100,000 salted duck eggs. Afterward, she went to the main building and filled it with dried mushrooms.

The mushrooms she grew in the grassland were thriving and threatened to take over the grassland. So, the automatic management harvested them, dried them, and stored them in the warehouse.

She took out 2,000 kilograms of each type of dried mushroom and stacked them neatly. The dried mushrooms were packed using gunny sacks, with each sack weighing 25 kilograms. There were a total of 6 types of mushrooms, totaling 480 gunny sacks.

It was almost sunset when she was done. To avoid bumping into Luo Bo and his brothers, she quickly locked the doors and left the warehouse. She waited until she saw them coming before she rode her horse back to town.

When they arrived, they noticed that the gate was unlocked and pushed it open. They were surprised that Lei Feng was so careless.

As the gate made a creaking sound, they entered and saw a new silver lock on the warehouses. After they were sure that the goods were stored inside, they arranged the shifts and guarded the place.

As for Yao Zhi, after she put the mare back into her system’s grassland, she ran as fast as she could. Fortunately, she managed to enter the town before the gate was closed.

That night, she stayed at the inn. After a long, tiring day, she went to sleep after eating 2 meat buns. She did not even bother to remove her disguise and lie on the bed.

The next morning, Yao Zhi took off her mask, washed her face, and wiped her body down.

When she was done, she put her mask on and took out 2 rou jia mo and a bottle of soymilk from her System’s storage for breakfast. After breakfast, she checked out of the inn and paid 10 Wen before she walked to the horse market.

Today, she planned to buy a carriage for herself. As the heir of a wealthy merchant family, it would be strange if she had to walk. Having a horse carriage was more convincing.

The moment she walked into the horse market, the merchants’ eyes lit up instantly. They had been doing business for years and knew who had money and who didn’t.

While her clothes looked simple, they had never seen the materials before. Rare things were mostly expensive, so this person must be someone with a great background.

Yao Zhi noticed their small movements but pretended as if she knew nothing. She looked around for a while until she saw a carriage with a low-key design but made of high-quality wood. The craftsmanship was also exquisite.

Walking closer, she knocked and tapped on the carriage to check its stability and strength. The owner saw this and said nothing, waiting for her to inspect the goods.

After a while, she turned to the owner and asked, ”Sir, how do you sell this carriage?”

The owner was a man in his late twenties, with his face covered in a beard. He looked at her and replied, ”500 taels of silver. No bargaining.”

When the surrounding merchants heard this, they sneered and discussed in low voices while pointing at him.

Seeing this, Yao Zhi could guess that this person might have failed to sell this carriage for a long time. She thought for a while and talked to her System.

”System, can you scan this carriage? I want to know what material was used to build it.”

Soon after, a mechanical voice echoed in her mind, ”Host, this carriage is made using ironwood. Using the standards of this era, the material used alone costs around 300 taels of silver. Added with the exquisite craftsmanship, 500 taels of silver is the lowest price possible.”

When she heard this, Yao Zhi nodded and said, ”Sir, I want this carriage.”

The moment she said this, everyone was stunned, including the owner. He thought that this person would at least bargain. Unexpectedly, she bought his carriage directly.

Seeing that the owner said nothing, Yao Zhi thought that he doubted her. So, she reached into her sleeve and took out a pouch. She opened it and took out 50 pieces of 10-tael silver ingots.

The owner saw the money and no longer doubted her. He accepted it and asked, ”Young Master, where do you want me to deliver this carriage to?”

Yao Zhi thought for a moment and said, ”I’ll go get my horse. You can help me connect the carriage to the horse later.”

Since she had paid for the carriage, the owner had no objections and agreed readily. ”Okay.”

After leaving the horse market, she went to a desolate alley and took out a stallion from her system’s grassland. As soon as she did, she rubbed its neck and fed it 5 drops of spiritual spring water.

The stallion’s intelligence was already above that of ordinary horses due to being raised in the System’s grassland. Now that it was fed spiritual spring water, it was even smarter.

It understood very well that this person was its master. It nudged her hand gently. Seeing the horse’s obedience, Yao Zhi smiled and said, ”Good boy.”

She put on the reins and led the horse back to the horse market. Along the way, the merchants were stunned by the stallion. They had seen countless horses, but none had this horse’s characteristic.
