Chapter 66 The Jiang family is getting rich
In the end, Chen Zhao failed to learn the ten-paragraph essay. Under Wen Shu's supervision, Ying Bao had no choice but to stretch out his hands and close his eyes tightly under Ying Bao's cold gaze.
Bang bang bang bang bang!
Ying Bao used all her strength to hit Chen Zhao with ten hands, making Chen Zhao burst into tears.
When I opened my eyes and looked at my palms, I saw they were red and swollen.
Chen Zhao pursed his lips and tried not to cry. He ran back to the next classroom with red eyes.
After this, Chen Zhao never came to Class A to see Wen Shu again, and avoided Ying Bao for several days.
During this period, Yingbao took the time to harvest the fine golden fungus and snow fungus she grew, and took advantage of the crisp autumn weather and the bright sun to dry them.
Today is a school holiday. Yingbao put the dried golden ears into a clean bamboo basket and prepared to give them to her father to take to the county town for sale tomorrow.
She weighed it on a scale she bought recently. One hundred and fifty dried golden ears weighed four kilograms and eight taels in total, and the one hundred and fifty dried snow fungus weighed five kilograms and three taels.
She planned to keep a small change and give the rest to her father to take to the county town to sell.
"Ying Bao, what are you busy with?" Wen Yanmin and his wife Xiao Zhenniang stood outside the fence, looking at Ying Bao with a smile.
Seeing that it was her husband, Ying Bao quickly opened the bamboo fence door and invited the two gentlemen in.
"Why are you here free, sir?" She brought the bamboo chairs and asked the two gentlemen to sit down.
Wen Yanmin lifted the corner of her robe and sat down, smiling and saying, "I have nothing to do and I want to walk around with your husband."
Xiao Zhenniang lowered her eyes and looked at several baskets of golden fungus and snow fungus, and asked, "Ying Bao, are you selling these golden fungus and snow fungus?"
Ying Bao nodded: "Of course it's for sale."
"Have you specified who to sell it to?" Xiao Zhenniang asked again.
"No, they were all given to my father to take away with him."
Wen Yanmin bent down and picked up a golden ear, put it under her nose, smelled it, and asked, "Yingbao, I wonder how much this kind of golden ear sells for one tael?"
"Daddy sold it for ten taels per catty last time." Ying Bao answered honestly.
"Twelve taels per catty, it's not expensive." Wen Yanmin asked with a smile: "I wonder if you can sell it to me. I'm willing to pay twelve taels per catty to buy it."
Ying Bao blinked and nodded vigorously, "Of course."
As long as the price is right, whoever is selling is not selling.
"Then will your parents agree?" Xiao Zhenniang asked.
"Of course my parents agree." Ying Bao chuckled and said, "How much do you want, sir? I'll weigh it for you right now."
She wouldn't charge less or less money just because Mr. Wen was her husband. Her brother was still settling the bill, and she didn't ask him to buy it.
"I want them all." Wen Yanmin pointed at the snow ear and said with a smile: "And this snow ear, how much does it cost per pound?"
"One tael of silver." Yingbao said, "The last time my dad brought me to the county, it was one tael of silver per catty."
"Okay, I'll take one tael of silver too." Wen Yanmin picked up a snow ear and sniffed it under her nose, smiling like crescent moons with her eyes.
So, Yingbao sold her golden and snow fungus without leaving home, and got more than sixty taels of silver.
Originally, she wanted to keep the fraction of the golden ear, but Wen Yanmin bought even the fraction with a wave of her hand.
Ying Bao didn't care, put away the money and started to divide the mycelium.
She still planted fifty golden ears and fifty snow ears in the cave, and planted a hundred outside. Then she divided the excess mycelium into the newly purchased clay pots, preparing to give them to her father for distribution.
Several busy days passed, and families who planted golden ears in the village began to harvest and dry them under the guidance of Jiang Sanlang.
Old man Jiang and his two sons also dried their fine golden ears, each weighing more than a kilogram.
The next step is to go to the county town to sell.
Jiang Sanlang didn't hide his secrets. He brought his brother Jiang Erlang, Chen Yin and Li Dayong to Furifeng Trading Company to sell gold ears.
Zhou Mao had been waiting impatiently for a long time. When the boy reported that Jiang Sanlang was coming, one of his shoes ran away.
"Hahaha, Brother Jiang, you are finally here." Zhou Mao pulled up his heels, asked the little waiter to make tea, and ran to the mule cart to check.
"How many fine products have you brought here today?" He stretched his neck to look around, picked up one and smelled it.
Jiang Sanlang brought in the second-quality products that he and his eldest brother, his second brother, had grown. “The best products totaled five kilograms.”
Zhou Mao pinched it and smelled it again. He felt that the fragrance was very light, not as strong as last time.
"Isn't this right?" He picked up another one and smelled it, feeling that he was overthinking it.
But as a businessman, if you have any doubts, you must ask, "Are you really a high-quality product?"
Jiang Sanlang said without changing his expression: "It is indeed a fine product."
The high-quality product grown by my little girl has been sold to Mr. Wen, and sold for a high price of twelve taels, so why should I and my father's second-class product cost ten taels per catty.
If Zhou Mao doesn't buy it, then he can take it back and talk about it later. He must not show any cowardice now.
Zhou Mao frowned and glanced at Jiang Sanlang, then clicked his tongue and said: "Forget it, hurry up and unload the goods."
The boy brought in the basket early and weighed the baskets of golden ears.
"A total of fifty-two kilograms of ordinary gold fungus, seven kilograms of snow fungus, five kilograms of fine gold fungus, and three kilograms of snow fungus." The boy counted.
Zhou Mao took the abacus and calculated for a while, "A total of two hundred and twenty-two, two and five hundred."
Jiang Sanlang nodded.
This includes golden fungus and snow fungus grown by other families in the village.
He had already done the math at home and that was it.
Zhou Mao was very happy and said to Jiang Sanlang: "Brother Jiang, you don't have to run back and forth next time. The boss of our trading company has said that we will collect it from you when the time comes, which will save you a lot of effort."
Jiang Sanlang: "Okay." It just so happened that he didn't want to go back and forth.
"Do you want banknotes or cash?" Zhou Mao asked again.
Jiang Sanlang shook his head: "If you don't want banknotes, let's use cash. Even the people in the village don't recognize those banknotes."
He didn't know where to exchange it after taking it. If the bank store disappeared, his money would be in vain.
Zhou Mao shook his head and refused to argue with this ignorant country man. He ordered the clerk to bring the accountant over and settle the money for them.
Ten taels of silver, a total of twenty-two, and another two thousand five hundred copper coins.
It was the first time that Chen Yin and Li Dayong saw so many silver ingots, and their eyes were almost blinded.
Oh my God, the Jiang family has really made a fortune with so much money.
After returning home, Chen Yin showed the seven taels of silver to his biological father, "Dad, you don't know, that Jin'er does make money. The Jiang family earned more than two hundred taels of silver this time. Oh my God, you are like Muramasa." I haven’t made so much money in many years.”
Chen Sanyou glared at his second son: "Asshole! Does your father make money by being a village leader?"
Chen Yin chuckled and said, "I'm just making an analogy."
After handing the seven taels to his father, Chen Yin said again: "This time I want to plant two hundred. Jiang Sanlang said that this is the last time to plant golden ears this year. We must hurry up, otherwise the golden ears will not grow when there is a frost." .”
Chen Dalang on the side was not happy, "Let me tell you, second brother, if you plant two hundred flowers each, how many will it cost for me and the fourth child?"
The golden ear fungus can only be separated from the previous mycelium. If you want the fungus to be large, a ball of mycelium should be divided into three or four parts at most. The second brother only used two hundred of them, so wouldn’t the total of himself and the fourth brother be connected? Not even two hundred flowers.
Chen Sanyou couldn't see his three sons arguing, so he immediately said: "Okay, you can just plant them together. I'm not dead yet, and you brothers are so fussy about things, and you're not afraid of people laughing at me!"
Mr. Chen grunted and closed his mouth.
Chen Yin was not angry and immediately took his wife and ten-year-old son to divide the bacteria.
If you want to ask why he is so active, it is really because of his selfish motives. He wants his wife and son to learn how to plant and maintain them as soon as possible.
Anyway, the eldest brother and the fourth brother will have to separate their families one day. When the time comes, my whole family will grow golden fungus and snow fungus. How can the future be different?
Maybe he is like Jiang Sanlang, earning hundreds of taels a year. Hehe, it's wonderful to think about it.
Snapped! A porcelain bottle was thrown from next door and almost hit Chen Yin's head.
Chen Yin was so angry that he shouted: "Who? Why are you throwing things away? Can you afford to pay for killing people?"
There were angry scoldings and cries from next door, as well as the clan leader's scolding: "This is all outrageous! Planting a mushroom can break your head. I see that the longer you live, the more you turn around!"
