Chapter 312: Buying a Large Camping Tent

Bai Wei had lived in one once, and she never wanted to live in one a second time.

She walked to the entrance of a furniture store and looked inside.

Bright lights shone down on a large European-style bed placed right in the center.

The ivory-white bed was topped with a latex mattress, and the sheets and duvet cover were a pale gold; it looked very soft at a glance.

The sales clerk noticed her standing at the entrance and hurried over with small, quick steps.

"Are you looking to buy a bed? This imported European-style bed just arrived yesterday, and it's 1.8 meters wide."

"We're running a promotion right now; buy a bed and get a natural latex mattress for free."

Bai Wei asked, "How much?"

"After the discount, it's 88,800. Although the price is a bit high, but..."

Bai Wei interrupted, "I'll take it."

Then, she added one more sentence.

"I'll take ten."

One bed certainly wasn't enough; what if she ran into an emergency and a bed got ruined?

So, she would just buy ten beds!

If she couldn't sleep in them all, she could let Xiao Moting, Xiao Lujing... and the others sleep in them.

The sales clerk's mouth hung open, and she was completely stunned.

Bai Wei looked around again and pointed to a single bed placed in the corner.

"How much is that bed?"

The sales clerk subconsciously looked in the direction she was pointing, "That's a folding bed, the price is 1,600."

"A folding bed?" Bai Wei was even more satisfied; she wanted folding beds to keep for emergencies, "I'll buy thirty. You have them in the Warehouse, right?"

The sales clerk came back to her senses, her face flushed with excitement, and she agreed repeatedly.

"Yes, we have them! I'll go get them for you right away."

She had hit the jackpot today; she had actually encountered such a wealthy big spender.

The surrounding sales clerks all looked over with envious gazes.

Damn it!

Why hadn't they encountered a big buyer like Bai Wei?

Such a young girl, yet she was so generous with her spending; she bought forty beds in one breath and was very decisive about it, too.

Such a large transaction was settled in less than five minutes.

The sales clerk who served Bai Wei could earn quite a bit of money from this single order alone.

The boss also hurried over to serve her personally, "How should I address you?"

"My surname is Bai," Bai Wei smiled, "You're the boss, right? I'm buying so many things, won't you give me some freebies?"

The boss was taken aback, then quickly smiled.

"Yes, I'll give you a set of imported ceramic teacups."

Bai Wei immediately stopped smiling and pointed at the pillows in the store.

"Change the freebie to pillows. Give latex pillows for the large beds and down-cotton pillows for the small beds."

Give ceramic teacups?

Are you kidding? Did he really think she had more money than sense?

What imported ceramic teacups? The birthplace of porcelain is Huaxia!!

Huaxia's porcelain is world-renowned.

Besides, she was about to go to Daliang, where the porcelain there was all antique; would she even care for the teacups the store was giving away when she used priceless porcelain cups to drink water every day?

Furthermore, how much could ceramic teacups cost? You could find teacups for two yuan each all over the night markets.

The boss turned his head to look and discovered she was pointing at the brand-name pillows, and he immediately gave a dry, awkward laugh.

"Those are natural latex pillows, they sell for 699 each; we really can't give those away..."

"If you can't give them away, then I'll go buy them across the street." Bai Wei couldn't be bothered with small talk and turned to leave.

Where couldn't she buy them?

Seeing that Bai Wei was really leaving, the boss panicked and hurriedly chased after her.

"Come back, I'll give you the pillows as a freebie."

Only then did Bai Wei stop and walk back with a smile.

The boss looked pained and said through gritted teeth, "This freebie is only for you; our store isn't even making any money off you. You can't tell anyone else about this."

Bai Wei smiled.

She had been doing business with Xiao Moting and had long since seen through these unscrupulous merchants.

All that "not making money off you, only for you" talk—these were just standard lines to coax customers; hearing them once was enough.

Even if the store gave her forty pillows, with such a huge order, the store was still making a profit!

After buying the beds, Bai Wei strolled around the furniture mall again and ordered tables, chairs, stools, and camping tents.

She also bought one hundred spring-loaded folding beds, the kind with mattresses, also as emergency supplies.

In addition, she bought all kinds of bedding: sheets, duvet covers, down quilts, silk quilts, wool quilts...

Yannan didn't need thick quilts, so these would be kept in the Warehouse for future use.

Bai Wei swept up several million worth of furniture in one go, and it felt great to buy like that.

Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly saw an outdoor supply store that was three bays wide.

Inside the store, a large, simple outdoor tent house was set up.

The outdoor tent is about ten square meters, constructed using military-grade waterproof material.

This tent was likely prepared by the boss for anglers; it not only comes with a built-in ventilation fan but is also equipped with a portable toilet, a portable alcohol stove, a folding dining table, folding stools...

Bai Wei's eyes lit up.

Isn't this set of gear a camping godsend?

When the time comes, while the carriage caravan camps by the Post Road, she can take the tent out from her space, then take out her own large bed as well—wouldn't that just be a small room?

When she leaves the next day, she can just transmit the tent back to the Warehouse; it's incredibly convenient.

Bai Wei immediately walked into the shop, "Boss, I'm buying the tent, including the portable toilet—I want this whole set!"

The toilet is biodegradable and even comes with a water tank.

There are no latrines on the road; the soldiers in ancient times don't mind, they can just run into a small grove, undo their belts, and go.

But Bai Wei has no intention of going back to ancient times and relieving herself just anywhere.

She bought one hundred biodegradable toilets in one go, and only then did she walk out of the shop door, satisfied.

All the preparations are complete; once the supplies are all delivered to the Warehouse, she will return to Daliang tomorrow.

Bai Wei spent the day buying everything in the city, and by the time she returned to the village, it was already dusk.

She had been shopping all day and was aching all over, planning to take a hot bath and relax as soon as she got back.

However, when Bai Wei returned to the Farm, she discovered several villagers standing at the entrance.

The old village head was there too, and as soon as he saw her car, he greeted her enthusiastically.

"Bai Wei, you're back!"

At his shout, the few villagers nearby all swarmed over.

Bai Wei was startled by this display, so she quickly stopped the car and jumped out.

"Village head, why have you all come to find me? Is something the matter?"

The old village head walked up and pointed to the side of the road.

"The villagers are grateful to you for building the school, and since the crops in the fields are ripe, we brought some for you to taste."

Bai Wei looked in the direction his finger was pointing and discovered quite a lot of corn laid out on the ground, at least ten baskets.

She hurriedly waved her hands, "Village head, there's no need for that."

"Xiao Wei, just accept it," an auntie walked up, "this is all our heartfelt sentiment."

"That's right," another middle-aged man also said with a smile, "A Ming, who works at your Farm, said you were going to drive to another province for a trip in the next few days. We don't have anything good in our village, but these vegetables are quite fresh. Take some to eat on the road; they're better than what you buy outside."

"This corn is grown in our own fields; it stores and keeps well," the auntie said, "if you get hungry on the road, just boil a few to eat—they're sweet!"

Bai Wei looked at these fellow villagers, and her heart couldn't help but warm.

In truth, she wasn't going on a trip at all, but returning to Daliang, so she had made up a "travel" excuse to coax Chen Ming into helping her watch over the Farm.

She hadn't expected that once the people in the village heard the news, they would really believe she was going on a road trip and rush over to bring her vegetables.
