Crossing the Unknown Country

Chapter 453 Su He and his friends booked a boat for their trip

Su He and the others didn't know that Miss Chen also had a crush on Su Pei and the others, and even if they knew, they wouldn't care. The family that could raise such a child might be someone of unknown kind, and if you see them, you must stay away from them, otherwise you don't know what will happen to you.

Fortunately, they did not meet again after the meal, because everyone had a lot of things to discuss, so they finished the meal and drank a long tea before thanking Manager Cheng and leaving Fumanlou.

Some people took the bus home, while Su He and the other young people wanted to walk back. They hadn't been shopping together for a long time. Several people started buying things they liked, and soon, the maids and servants had their hands full of things.

When they got home, Su He was still not satisfied. Su Pei smiled and said, "Su He is too good at shopping. Look, Yingying and Qingming are exhausted. The maids and servants are regretting it now. They should have gone home with their uncles earlier."

Su He smiled and said, "You guys are all equally happy. Look at all the things here. They were all bought by the three of you."

Su Feng smiled and joked, "We bought them, but they are all your favorites."

Everyone burst into laughter. Yes, as long as Su He's brothers saw that she liked something, they would buy it without hesitation. That's why she bought so many things.

Su He said cutely: "Who made me have three good brothers! I feel very happy to be your sister!"

Su He's parents like to see their children loving each other, which is what a real family is. They have been working hard to live, just to see their children's smiling faces.

In the next few days, they were all busy, and Su He followed his master to the dock to check the boat. They chose a larger boat, because Su He knew that the bigger the boat, the safer it was, and it could escape at full speed if it encountered pirates.

I also went on board to take a look at the environment. Except for the large hall at the cabin, the other rooms are not big and can only sleep one or two people. Su He and everyone else have booked this room. If it can sleep two people, then arrange two people, at least they can have a good rest.

The three elder brothers arranged a single room for them, because they needed space to study and it was not convenient for three people to live together. They also asked the boatman about food and drink, and only went home after everything was ordered.

This room would cost about three taels of silver to stay in until landing and leaving, plus food and drink, a total of six taels of silver. They booked about ten rooms, and the total cost was sixty taels of silver.

This is not expensive. They will probably take about ten days. Ordinary people sleep on the floor in the big cabin. It costs thirty coins a day, not including food and drink. Halfway through the journey, some people get off at the dock. I heard that this ship also stops near some counties and towns to rest and replenish supplies.

Su He and his friends paid the deposit and went home with peace of mind. The ship date was confirmed, and Su He's parents quickly arranged the family. They arranged a carriage to send Master Ye away, and Su He's brothers also went to the academy to complete the withdrawal process and say goodbye to their friends.

They agreed to meet in the capital, because several students were also going to the capital for the imperial examination. Everyone went at different times, so they agreed that when the time came, they must find each other first, so that they could take care of each other as they were from the same hometown.

Su He and his friends were the first to arrive. Su Pei said that his family might buy a house, so they could just go there to find Moxiangzhai. Su He said that he would also do the business of the four treasures of the study in the capital, which would not easily attract the attention of the aristocratic families. The four treasures of the study they made were different from the usual styles, so they did not form an opposition with others.

They had also asked the Ninth Prince in advance, and he said that it was okay to do this business, so that the two families would not conflict. Originally, it would be best to run a woolen mill, but wool needed to be transported over long distances, so this business was not realistic, so they had to give up.
