Zeng Sanshui and the others were dazzled. Like curious children, they touched left and right. From time to time, they would press the bell and look in the mirror.

Zeng Sanshui walked in and discovered something even more interesting.

Not only were there bicycles with two wheels, but there were also tricycles with three wheels!

Some tricycles could accommodate people at the back, but some had an iron trough at the back, probably used to carry goods.

Zeng Sanshui pointed at the black and stylish-looking bicycle and asked the boss for the price. “How much is this bicycle worth?”

The boss smiled and gestured with two fingers.

Zeng Sanshui guessed, “20 taels?”

The boss smiled and shook his head. Before he could speak, Bai s.h.i.+ning interrupted, “200 taels of silver for just this lousy thing? It’s not even as fast as a horse! It’s just a pile of trash after you buy it!”

Bai s.h.i.+ning felt that they had carriages and servants and had no use for the bicycles at all. The bicycles were also tiring to pedal.

Who would be happy to hear others say that their things were not good?

Moreover, he had said it in front of others.

The boss’ expression darkened. Qu Yuanxian quickly tried to salvage the situation. “Boss, the workmans.h.i.+p of this bicycle is exquisite. It’s convenient to ride and there’s no need to feed gra.s.s or clean the horse pen. I also want to buy one and bring it back for my daily travel.”

When the boss heard him say this, his expression improved a little. He replied to Zeng Sanshui’s question, “These bicycles all cost one silver.”

“The ones in front cost two taels and five coins. They’re for children. Depending on the sizes, there are bicycles that cost two taels and six coins or two taels and eight coins.”

Zeng Sanshui’s eyes widened. “Two taels?”

Was there something wrong with his ears?

Even in their Carefree Kingdom, it would cost a few taels to buy a sword.

After using so much iron to make such an exquisite thing, especially the mirror at the front and the headlights, it would cost more than a few dozen taels in the Ling Kingdom!

But it was only two taels here.

It really shocked Zeng Sanshui.

He even had the thought of not being a general and specializing in importing and selling bicycles.

But the boss nodded seriously. “That’s right. It’s only two taels.”

Two taels of silver did not seem like much to Zeng Sanshui. In fact, even to those people with high salary in Carefree Kingdom, two taels of silver was half a month’s salary.

In the Ling Kingdom, 80% of the commoners might not even have two taels of silver in their entire lives.

Zeng Sanshui said excitedly, “I’ll buy one!”

Lu Ye reminded him, “If you buy it now, someone will have to hold the horse for you later. If you want to buy it, it’s best to buy it when you come back.”

Zeng Sanshui’s eyes revealed a trace of regret. “Alright, then I’ll buy it when I get back!”

Moreover, he had to buy a few bicycles and give one to each of his eight sons. His mother would also get a tricycle. If he had nothing to do, he would take her out for a ride. She would definitely be the most beautiful old lady in the entire Imperial City.

Zeng Sanshui paid a huge amount of deposit. Fortunately, he had exchanged for banknotes when he came. Otherwise, he really wouldn’t have been able to buy anything.

When he paid, Zeng Sanshui even exclaimed at how convenient it was to use banknotes.

Bai s.h.i.+ning did not ride a bicycle, but he also felt that a bicycle worth two taels of silver had a lot of potential in Ling Kingdom.

He could buy it back and develop the product so that he could specialize in selling bicycles in Ling Kingdom.

Bai s.h.i.+ning took a closer look at the bicycle. At first glance, it was not complicated.

With a few more glances, one could tell that the structure was exquisite. The forging process was also very complicated, it was practically an art piece.

Bai s.h.i.+ning could not help but think that the Carefree Kingdom was indeed much more developed than he had imagined.

He looked at the boss and ordered 50 bicycles in one go.

Even if they could not make the same bicycles, the mirrors and headlights on these bicycles could be sold for a good price.

He could make a killing.

Bai s.h.i.+ning still felt that he had a chance to return alive.

After all, he was Bai Wutong’s father and he was the one who gave her life. So what if he took it away!

Unexpectedly, the boss said, “Everyone is restricted to buying only one!”

Bai s.h.i.+ning’s eyes widened. Thinking that the boss was targeting him, he asked angrily, “Why can he buy 10 bicycles?”

The boss said calmly, “Because this buddy has 10 people accompanying him.”

Bai s.h.i.+ning counted all his servants and there were only 10 of them. He could only grit his teeth and say, “Then save 10 for me!”

It would be a fool not to accept a business deal. The boss readily asked Bai s.h.i.+ning to pay the deposit.

Then, he recommended other additional products to Bai s.h.i.+ning, such as headgear, car bag, sungla.s.ses, and so on.

He was looking at him as if asking if he could afford it. This made Bai s.h.i.+ning buy another pile of things in one go.

Some of these accessories were even more expensive than a bicycle. The boss said every time, “You have to buy it for at least 10 people, right?”

In a short while, Bai s.h.i.+ning had already owed more than 500 taels of silver.

He thought that paying the deposit was enough, but the boss said, “Apart from the bicycle that can be paid in advance, everything else cannot. Buddy, you have to pay now.”

With so many people standing at the side, Lu Ye even said, “Don’t worry, this is an official from the Ling Kingdom, and this is the Crown Prince’s consort. They’re definitely not people who cannot afford.”

Bai s.h.i.+ning could not say anything. He gritted his teeth and paid another few hundred taels!

Although the amount was not worth mentioning to him, he was very unhappy that the other party had gotten their way.

By the time they came out of the bike store, it was dark.

The neighboring shops were also closed.

Zeng Sanshui actually felt like he had not shopped enough.

The next day, the team set off early. At noon, a huge mountain range appeared in their vision.

There were more pedestrians, carriages, and bicycles coming and going.

It seemed extremely lively.

Zeng Sanshui asked excitedly, “Is that Dark Dragon Mountain?”

Lu Ye nodded and replied, “That’s right. That’s the Dark Dragon Mountain. You can take half a day to walk around here.”

After all, they were here to sightsee as envoys.

And to spend more money.

It would contribute further to their country’s tax collection.

This time, they did not stay at the rest station. Instead, they stayed in a hotel built by the locals.

It was especially big. From afar, it was dozens of meters tall and had countless windows. It was majestic and much more imposing than the dormitory they stayed in at the border.

Before they entered, they saw all kinds of exquisite stone sculptures at the door.

These stone sculptures were fertilizer for mining jade. However, they were still exquisitely carved and were suitable for placing in the garden and at the entrance of the villa. Central Plains people liked to buy such items to protect their homes.

The shop owner had further innovated so his business was quite good.

When Lu Ye led them into the hotel, Zeng Sanshui’s attention was immediately attracted by the automatic fountain.

He ran over like a big child and reached out to touch the fountain. “How does this water fly?”

Lu Ye smiled and said, “Naturally, we have our ways!” Actually, he didn’t know either.

Song Yao glanced at them disdainfully. “I think Second Aunt is not just crazy. There’s something wrong with her eyes too. He’s lying outside our house and hasn’t even entered the house. How did it become that we’re hiding a man?”

Li Feiqiao roared, “Then how is it a coincidence that I’m lying at your door? I don’t believe that you don’t have any ill intentions!”

She was shouting so loudly that if the villagers heard her, how could Song Yao raise her head to meet others in the village?

Wu Huizhen b.u.mped her head into Li Feiqiao.. “Get lost! Get lost!”
