The place where the exile team stopped was not far from the town in front of them, so even if the donkey cart wasn't fast, it didn't take more than a quarter of an hour to arrive.

After the official went to negotiate with the guard at the door, they were allowed in, but the donkey cart was left outside.

After the prisoners bought something, they were checked again at the city gate to make sure there were no dangerous items before they could be taken away.

To Shen Xingmian, this didn't matter at all.

After the official emphasized the gathering time again, he signaled that they could leave on their own. Shen Xingmian merged into the crowd and soon disappeared like a nimble fish.

Instead of going directly to buy something, she entered a remote, deserted alley, returned to the space, and began to disguise herself.

She looked shabby now, so she pretended to be a delicate maid from a rich family, so she deliberately found the clothes collected in the harem and picked the simplest one to change into.

As for the hairpin jewelry and hair bun, she was too lazy to do it. She just found a curtain hat and put it on. She looked noble from the neck down and mysterious from the neck up.

Still simple and easy.

When she came out of the alley again, her posture was much more dignified. Many people she met on the road couldn't help but look at her, but they didn't dare to offend her.

This town is not too big, but because it is relatively close to the capital, nobles from the capital will pass by from time to time, and the common people have learned to avoid these people.

I was afraid that if I accidentally offended someone, I would be called upon to settle the score later.

Shen Xingmian looked at the nearby shops, decided to pick the ones that were close and needed, and looked at them one by one.

The first store I entered was a rice and grain store. Unexpectedly, the place was not too big and the items were quite complete.

She glanced around and saw that the store also had a back entrance. She guessed that it had a warehouse. The ones in front were just for displaying the varieties.

She felt that she could buy all the goods, even if she didn't like to eat them, she could use them as feed.

The boss probably thought that she, a little girl in luxurious clothes, had gone to the wrong place when she came to his rice and grain shop, so she didn't even get up and continued to drink his tea leisurely.

Shen Xingmian asked directly: "Boss, can it be cheaper if I buy more?"

She didn't want to argue over the price, so she planned to do a big deal with her boss if he was happy.

The boss raised his head in surprise. Although he wondered who would let such a meager little girl go out to buy food, the businessman's habit still made him smile and reply:

"Of course, I, Lao Liu, am famous for being a good boy. If you buy anything that is too expensive in my store, I will give you double the money back."

Shen Xingmian felt that the boss had a kind face and was quite eloquent in his words. Moreover, every bag of food had a price tag on it, so he looked quite reliable.

But...it took me so long to enter the store, but why wasn't there any other customer?

She looked at the door and found that there were not many people on the street, and there was no need to go out to buy things like rice every day.

So she felt relieved and what she said made the originally calm boss jump out of his chair. She asked with a psychedelic look on her face: "Did I hear you right? You mean, together with all the things in the warehouse behind, You bought everything I was willing to sell?”

Shen Xingmian nodded calmly.

This feeling of pretentiousness, how should I put it, is indeed quite enjoyable, hehe.

Seeing her nodding, the boss quickly asked her to sit down opposite him and discuss it in detail, but Shen Xingmian waved her hand and refused.

She still has to buy a lot of things, but she doesn't have that much time.

He shook his purse to let the boss see that he indeed had money, and then said quickly: "You should have a yard behind you. Pack all these rice grains and send them to the yard. I will send someone to take them away in the evening."

The boss nodded repeatedly to show that he understood, and quickly took out the account book and abacus and began to calculate the accounts.

"After you finish the calculation, put a copy of the account book in the yard. My people will check it when the time comes. These twenty taels of silver are the deposit. Get it done quickly. My people will be here in half an hour."

The boss was overjoyed. After the deal was completed, he didn’t have to worry about not opening for half a month! What a blessing. He couldn't help but show off to his mother-in-law when he got home at night!

When Shen Xingmian left, he heard his boss doing calculations and laughing happily.

After that, she went to Buzhuang again, repeated the above words again, paid the deposit and continued to move forward.

However, this cloth shop was not very big and had no cotton clothes or cotton, so Shen Xingmian bought all the fabrics first.

This kind of thing can be stored permanently in space, no amount is too much.

Further forward, there was a blacksmith shop. Shen Xingmian was a little surprised that the location of the blacksmith shop was so good.

When I went in, I saw that they were all kitchen knives and hoes, but there were no swords. There was also a book next to it to record what the customers bought.

It seems that Vietnam’s control over iron tools is quite strict.

Shen Xingmian left without even entering. There were so many weapons in her space, so there was no point in wasting time here.

There was a steamed bun shop in front of her. She asked the shopkeeper to wrap all the steaming steamed buns. When paying, she asked:

"Sister, where is the carriage shop? I'm going to buy a donkey cart. Can I pick it up when I come back?"

The steamed stuffed bun seller nodded enthusiastically: "Have you seen that intersection? Turn right, go to the very end and turn right again. This is the largest carriage and horse carriage here. You go first. I'll be waiting here whenever you come back. you!"

Probably because she was really happy that the business ended early, the smile on the eldest sister's face was particularly sincere and enthusiastic, which made Shen Xingmian feel good. After she thanked her, she went to the carriage house first.

There is a car with a shed. Once you put your things inside and retract it into the space, no one will notice anything is wrong. It is not very convenient.

Of course, she had observed in advance that the street was quite wide and there were not many pedestrians, so it was still okay to walk slowly while pulling a carriage.

And according to her observation, carriages are allowed to pass on this street without any restrictions.

There are many horses in the space, and they are all good horses tamed by specially trained people. They are much better than those in the carriage and horse shop. After all, they come from the royal hunting ground.

But she can't just buy a frame and roof.

So Shen Xingmian had no choice but to choose a sickly horse and a second-hand carriage that was ordinary but spacious enough.

The reason why I didn't buy a new one was because I was still in the exile team and would have to be inspected when I left the city gate. It was better to keep a low profile.

The horse and carriage cost a total of twenty-five taels. Shen Xingmian once again had a new understanding of the purchasing power of money in his own space.

She is so rich!

Shen Xingmian went out to pick up the steamed buns, said goodbye to the enthusiastic landlady, and continued walking forward.
