After hearing Meng Zhao's words, Saibal readily agreed, "Okay, I'll take your starch. I'll go out to sea this afternoon and take it away directly."

Meng Zhao hadn't expected things to go so smoothly. She thought she would have to use a lot of persuasion, but the other party didn't even haggle over the price before agreeing to the deal.

That makes sense, tea is not cheap to begin with, so this person who can buy two thousand catties at once is obviously not an ordinary merchant.

Meng Zhaoxin said happily, "Okay, the starch is in the backyard right now. I'll have someone deliver it to the boat for you."

Meng Zhao only felt completely relieved after watching Sebal's ship sail away.

Xu Ping's face flushed with excitement. "Cousin, it really sold! My goodness, cousin, you're amazing! I knew you could do it!"

Shen Yun added, "Sister Meng Zhao, it's like a dream that Saibal bought so much starch just because of the meal you cooked."

Meng Zhao shook his head and said, "It wasn't because of my meal that Sebal bought the starch; it was due to a series of coincidences."

"First, the tea merchant ran away unexpectedly, which disrupted Sebal's original plans. Then, quite coincidentally, we stayed in the same room, and there just happened to be no tea available for him to purchase locally. In addition, there were storms at sea these days, which forced Sebal to fill the ship's hold here. Of course, my meal was also one of the reasons."

Although it was a coincidence, everyone was very happy that the starch sold.

Meng Zhao was also happy and immediately said, "I'll treat everyone to dinner tonight. Let's have a good meal and set off back to Qingshi County early tomorrow morning."
