Yun Zhiyi always thought she was the fake young mistress who had taken another's place. After the real one returned, she held back in every way.
Only after being thrown into the mass grav...
Yun Zhiyi smiled, finding the courage of these people truly commendable.
This is praise, not criticism.
Given that the man was the one who gave her eggs twice, there must have been some kind of fate between them.
She didn't refuse outright, but simply asked, "How many do you want?"
Tao Xingshun pondered the vegetable prices and tentatively suggested, "Ten cabbages, twenty radishes, and thirty cucumbers, is that alright?"
The vegetables are good, but transportation is indeed a problem; it's hard to say whether they can be sold immediately once they arrive at the next location.
They dared to come because they happened to have acquaintances or connections at the next stop.
Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to try it.
Yun Zhiyi said, "I'm not in a hurry to sell vegetables, so the price won't be lowered."
Upon hearing this, the group was immediately disappointed.
Tao Xingshun frowned, as if he wanted to say something more.
Yun Zhiyi raised her hand to stop her and continued.
"However, I can include something that can keep vegetables fresh over long distances, at least for 15 days without spoiling."
Upon hearing this, the group looked surprised.
Tao Xingshun immediately asked, "What is it?"
Yun Zhiyi said, "It's a special potion prepared by the vegetable growers. Just a little bit is sprinkled on the vegetables every day, and they can stay fresh for three days. This potion is colorless and odorless, and it won't have any adverse effects on the taste or quality of the vegetables."
Such a thing actually exists?
All three of them were somewhat skeptical.
Yun Zhiyi smiled and said, "This is a free gift for our first collaboration. If you want it again in the future, you'll have to pay with silver."
Tao Xingshun pondered for a few moments, then asked, "If I were to buy it, what would the price be?"
Yun Zhiyi held up her fingers, “One jin (500g) costs 200 wen. Vegetables weighing less than 50 jin can be used five times.”
Tao Xingshun asked, "May I ask how much you will be giving this time?"
Yun Zhiyi smiled, "Four catties."
He quickly calculated that the amount of vegetables he bought was indeed enough to last for 15 days.
Four catties would cost 800 coins at the original price, that's really generous.
As for whether the product actually has the effect the other party claimed.
Anyone who can produce vegetables of such quality must come from a wealthy or influential family.
I heard that yesterday they even sent the leftover vegetables directly to the orphanage.
It's obvious that they weren't in a hurry to sell these few vegetables, so they wouldn't deliberately try to cheat them.
He then asked, "If we buy more, can we get a free 15-day supply of medicine?"
Yun Zhiyi nodded. "Okay."
Anyway, it's all water she conjured with her supernatural abilities, so apart from the jar, there's no cost price.
The two young men seemed about to say something but then stopped themselves.
Tao Xingshun nodded in agreement.
"Okay, then I'll buy 20 cabbages, 50 radishes, and 50 cucumbers. I wonder if it's possible to pick them up today, since we're leaving early tomorrow morning."
The man next to him was taken aback and couldn't help but tug at him, "Dad, isn't this too much?"
Tao Xingshun waved his hand.
Yun Zhiyi stood up. "Okay, leave an address, and someone will deliver the vegetables around 3 PM."
Tao Xingshun's eyes flickered slightly, and he nodded. "I wonder how much the deposit is."
"Just give the order to the person who comes after signing it."
“Alright.” Tao Xingshun stood up. “In that case, I’ll have to trouble you, sir. By the way, may I ask your surname, sir?”
Because the vegetable shop is called Yunjian Vegetable Shop, everyone is used to calling her Yun, but no one knows her real name.
"Just call me Cloud Shop Owner, like everyone else."
"Alright, then we won't disturb the shopkeeper any longer. Farewell."
The group came and went in a hurry.
They were talking inside the store, and it wasn't appropriate for others to eavesdrop.
After everyone left, Boss Chen came over and asked with concern.
Are you alright?
Yun Zhiyi smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just came to buy groceries."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Chen breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, thank goodness it wasn't a troublemaker."
After 3 PM, Yun Zhiyi closed the shop door.
Business is better today than yesterday.
All the cabbages were sold out, and there were only three radishes and two cucumbers left.
She was too lazy to send any more to the orphanage, so she gave the fried noodle stall owner two cucumbers instead.
He was the one who bought most of the cucumbers she sold.
Yesterday I only ran a lunch stall, but today I figured I'd like to run it all day, so I bought six cucumbers.
The noodle stall owner felt quite embarrassed, as he had already made a lot of extra money by taking advantage of the taste of the vegetables.
These days, you can't just take such expensive dishes from someone for free.
Yun Zhiyi was too lazy to refuse, so she said that she really felt bad and would just send her a plate of fried noodles tomorrow at noon.
After saying that, he put down the cucumber and left.
She gave away the three remaining radishes that she liked.
Mr. Chen gets one, and Mr. Xu, the owner of the grocery store across the street, also gets one.
These two are quite familiar with each other.
The remaining one was used to feed the horses.
As everyone watched her slowly drive away in her carriage, they couldn't help but shake their heads.
I have no idea what this person's background is.
Although her face was always covered, her appearance could not be seen clearly.
But judging from her demeanor, she doesn't seem like a girl from an ordinary family.
Besides, those vegetables aren't something the average person can buy.
Especially her attitude when selling vegetables was far too casual.
People say she's stingy, refusing to lower vegetable prices by even a penny, yet she casually gives away such expensive dishes.
But if a girl comes from an extraordinary family, which family doesn't worry about food and clothing? She'll be out in the streets every day, showing her face in public to earn money.
That's really strange.
Yun Zhiyi's carriage leisurely returned to the farm.
The villagers who saw her on the road all greeted her with smiles, their expressions natural and familiar.
No longer as apprehensive as before.
During this period, Yun Zhiyi not only refrained from excessively interfering in the farmland, but also brought them considerable income.
First, each household would hire one person to take care of the surrounding hundred acres of farmland.
Although it only costs 30 coins a day, the job is easy; it only requires watering and weeding, and can be finished in half a day.
