Chapter 329: Buying Furnitures

Jiang Chuan involuntarily took a sharp breath. If the merchant was as confident as he seemed, he must have at least one thousand kilogram of seeds. One thousand kilogram! What does that mean? It would be enough for the entire land of Puhua Village!

Having been in business for so many years, Jiang Chuan inferred that such a large quantity of seeds couldn’t possibly belong to this single merchant. So, he directly asked, “Are you the sole decision-maker for these seeds?”

As expected, the merchant hesitated, indicating that the seeds weren’t solely his.

Seeing that the merchant couldn’t make the decision alone, Jiang Chuan offered a suggestion, “1 will return here tomorrow morning. You can discuss it with the actual owner today. If he agrees, we’ll meet here tomorrow and make the exchange. Any seed variety works.”

The merchant felt this was feasible, and quickly packed his things to leave. Given his urgency, he was probably off to discuss with the seed owner.

Jiang Chuan then went to meet the person he had previously agreed to buy furniture from and proceeded to view the furniture.

Upon arrival, Jiang Chuan couldn’t help but marvel. Although the black market was pricey, the quality of the products was unmatched. Among the furniture, there were even pieces made from pearwood, each meticulously crafted and worth the price.

Jiang Chuan desired every piece of furniture, but his vehicle had limited space. At that moment, he envied Jiang Xia’s ability to fit anything into her interspace, so he wouldn’t have to make tough decisions like he was currently facing.

Suddenly, an idea struck Jiang Chuan. He could bring Jiang Xia with him the next day to choose more furniture!

If he sneaked back to the village under the cover of darkness and left early the next morning, nobody in the village would know he had returned.

With this thought, Jiang Chuan selected two wardrobes, two desks, one large and one small for Jiang Xia and Jiang Gu, and a cabinet.

After making his selections, he told the carpenter, “Master, I can’t transport ail these pieces at once. Can I take some today and return for the rest tomorrow?”

The carpenter was busy calculating the price of the furniture. Once done, he responded, “Which nearby village are you from? We can also deliver to your village, but we’d charge an extra two coin for transportation.”

This was even more convenient. Jiang Chuan immediately agreed, “Okay, when will the furniture be delivered?”

“It’s too late today. We’ll send them over tomorrow morning and they should arrive by evening. You can pay half the amount as a deposit today, and the balance when the furniture arrives tomorrow.”

“Alright, how much is the total?”

“The furniture is thirty, plus two for transportation, that’s thirty-two.”

Jiang Chuan paid him, provided his address, and then went to buy three baskets of charcoal for fifteen coins. 𝙛𝓻𝙚𝙚𝔀𝙚𝓫𝓷𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝒎

When he got home, Zhou Lan was taken aback, “Didn’t you say you’d be gone for two days? Why are you back tonight?”

Jiang Chuan sat down and took a sip of water before saying, “1 encountered someone selling seeds in the city. I plan to go back with Jiang Xia tomorrow to have a look.”

Jiang Xia perked up, “What kind of seeds do they have?”

“I know they have corn, but we’ll have to see tomorrow for the rest. What vegetables do you have in your interspace right now and how much?”

Jiang Xia did a quick calculation, “1 have one hundred kilogram of mushrooms, fifty kilogram of wild fungi, and fifty kilogram each of white radish and carrot.”

Jiang Chuan frowned, “That might not be enough.”

Jiang Xia was surprised, “Not enough? Dad, how many seeds are you planning to buy? Two hundred fifty of food isn’t sufficient?”

Jiang Chuan recounted the events, and after listening, Jiang Xia reminded him, “Dad, if you intend to get all those seeds, won’t the seed seller become suspicious? Where would he think we got so much food from? How would you explain?”

“You have a point,” Jiang Chuan pondered for a moment, “So what’s your plan?”

“Buy on credit. The village can pay half of the amount upfront as a deposit, and once the seeds mature, we can repay the remaining half with the produce. We can even give a bit extra as interest.”

Jiang Chuan understood. This was a form of lending. However, such an arrangement would require the village accountant’s approval. But currently, there wasn’t an accountant in the village. Who could handle this matter?

After father and daughter discussed this, Zhou Lan shared with Jiang Chuan what she had overheard on the road, concluding with, “Everyone’s plans have fallen apart. Higher-ups are assigning a new captain, so Chen Xing won’t get that position. The deputy leader’s position won’t remain vacant either, which means the village is still short of an accountant..”
