Chapter-139: take you in… what is in it for me…?
Half an hour later, they came out one by one, pulling their carriages and dancing with excitement. The head of the Foster family walked at the back and said to Wendy. "Lark... head, there are sixty six carriages in total, five more than the number."
"No problem. I reserved sixty six." Did she miscalculate? No, the head of the Foster family was slow to react. If the people from the first and third branches of the Lark family were included, there would be exactly sixty six carriages.
Such meticulousness, such powerful action, and such mysterious means are all intimidating. The owner of the carriage and horse shop came up and handed over the list.
"Look, these are sixty six carriages, each equipped with a small red clay stove and two earthenware pots, a set of oilcloth raincoats, a set of carriage mats, a set of thick blankets, and five hand warmers."
"Very good, thank you for your hard work…" Wendy Lark was very satisfied. Second brother Gomez was very capable and had great skills.
When she was at the guest house of boss pan, she booked these sixty six carriages from Second brother Gomez, and Second brother Gomez agreed immediately. In return, Wendy Lark gave him a folk remedy for diarrhea and a plan to regulate his stomach.
Second brother Gomez has been traveling outside for many years, and his meals are irregular. His stomach is not very good and he will have diarrhea if he is not careful, but he loves to eat. The owner of the carriage and horse shop ordered his men to bring out a few bags.
"This is the duck feathers you requested."
"These are two fifty year old herbs." He delivered everything clearly one by one and his attitude was extremely humble. A hint of joy flashed in Wendy Lark's eyes. That's great; she now has a duck feather quilt.
As for old herbs, it can save lives at critical moments. "Thank you, please pay the bill."
The shopkeeper had already listed the list, but he still said it again in person, "Sixty six carriages plus the things inside, six thousand six hundred Coins, plus these bags of things and the old herbs, a total of seven thousand five hundred coins of silver."
Wendy Lark waved her hand and said, "Brother, pay." She also gave the shopkeeper a tip of one hundred Coins as a reward for his hard work. "Thank your master for me. I'm sorry for his trouble. We'll see you again if we're lucky."
The owner of the carriage shop became more attentive, "Yes, yes, yes."
"Let's go back." Wendy Lark gave an order, and a group of people left in a mighty manner. The owner of the carriage shop stood up straight only after the carriage disappeared from his sight.
The waiter was very curious, "Boss, who is that person? Why doesn't he even show his face?" The shopkeeper is no longer curious and knows that the more he knows, the more dangerous it is.
"Why do you care so much? We have successfully completed the task assigned by the master. Everyone has contributed. Let's have a good meal tonight." The guys cheered loudly. On the way back, everyone was very excited.
The way the head of the Foster family looked at Wendy Lark was different now. After this incident, she won over countless people's hearts. Haven't you seen that everyone in the Foster family calls her Miss Wendy all the time?
Calling her more affectionately than the young lady from the foster? They all wished that Wendy Lark was their own lady. "Miss Wendy, where did you get this?"
"I asked a friend to get it for me." Wendy Lark glanced at him calmly, "By the way, the accessories in the carriage are not given away for free. If you don't want them, then..." Before she could finish, the head of the Foster family interrupted her hastily,
"Yes, yes, yes. How much…?" Those matching items are not very expensive, but they are very practical. The key is that it is not easy to collect so much at once.
"Six hundred and sixty Coins of silver" Each serving costs ten Coins, which is really not expensive, but the head of the Foster family was embarrassed, "I don't have that much money..."
Wendy Lark curled her lips and said, "You are so poor. Forget it. Let's follow the old rules"
"Okay." The head of the Foster family said that he didn't mind having too many lice and didn't worry about having too many debts. He said with a smile, "Where did you get so much money? Can you take me with you?"
Wendy Lark asked coldly, "Take you? What's in it for me?" They are only short term partners. "Huh?" The head of the Foster family had a headache. She was too shrewd. It would not work to talk about friendship with her.
"I will listen to you from now on."
"What kind of benefit is this?" Wendy Lark shook her head slightly. It's okay to be smart, but it's hard to be open hearted if you're too smart. "Think about it carefully and come up with something that can impress me."
The head of the Foster family was at a loss. Impressing her? It is too difficult. "What do you need?" Wendy Lark played with the teacup nonchalantly, her eyes slightly lowered, "Now I have money and resources, the officials all listen to me, I don't lack anything."
This is even more difficult. The head of the Foster family couldn't think of it no matter how hard he racked his brains. At the door of the inn, countless people stretched their necks and waited eagerly.
Several members of the Lark Family gathered around Wilson lark, asking in unison, "Can we really get carriages? Not just one, but sixty-one! This is not an easy task."
