Chapter 87 Qiao Xuan's Great Expectation
Wild bees don't produce much honey, so Qiao Xuan went easy on herself. After a final calculation, she found that she had harvested more than 100 kilograms of wild honey and 18 kilograms of beeswax.
Qiao Xuan kept more than three kilograms of honey and planned to sell a total of one hundred kilograms.
Eighteen pounds of beeswax, with added plant essential oils, almond oil, and pure red flower juice, can make at least two thousand three hundred to two thousand five hundred sticks after deducting the loss.
What is this concept? Qiao Xuan seemed to have seen the white silver.
With this money, she can buy more land and open a shop.
Of course, at the beginning, she had to act in secret, not show up, and not let her mother, Madam Qiao, notice her. When she grew up to the point where her mother could no longer control her, and she made good friends with two powerful merchants with good backgrounds, then they would no longer be afraid of her.
The most important thing is, it would be great if Shao Yunduan could pass the imperial examination next year!
His success in the imperial examination was also a guarantee for him. At that time, not to mention Madam Qiao, even if his scumbag father wanted to touch him, he would not dare to act rashly.
Juren is different from Xiucai. They can directly fill vacancies as minor officials such as county magistrate. If they have connections or have made achievements, it is not impossible for them to be appointed as a county magistrate.
Even if his scumbag father wanted to deprive him of his status as a juren, he couldn't just frame him. He had to report it to the prefect, and have the prefect personally interrogate him.
Qiao Xuan believed that Mrs. Qiao would want to do this, but her scumbag father would never do that.
Because if he got caught, his bureaucratic career would be over! He wasn't stupid enough to take such a risk.
In his eyes, Shao Yunduan is still his son-in-law no matter what. If Shao Yunduan really succeeds, he must respect him even more. Otherwise, his reputation will be damaged and Shao Yunduan will suffer.
Shao Yunduan's success means that he has more help and connections in the officialdom. He is so happy that he cannot contain himself and will never allow Madam Qiao to do anything wrong.
Therefore, as long as Shao Yunduan passed the imperial examination, he would also be able to make a name for himself. Qiao Xuan was looking forward to it.
One hundred kilograms of honey, filling three large ceramic jars.
Everyone was so happy, this could sell for a lot of money!
On this day, Shao Yunduan was going to the academy in the county town, so he hired an ox cart and everyone went together.
Shao Xiaoqi, Shao Taotao and Fang also went.
Fang just wanted to buy some things that Shao Sanlang needed for his marriage.
Honey is naturally sold to pharmacies.
Honey is often used in pharmacies to prepare medicines. Moreover, some rare medicinal materials can only be effectively preserved by being soaked in pure wild authentic honey.
For example, ginseng. The best fresh wild ginseng can be sliced and cut into sections, soaked in pure wild honey and sealed. It can be preserved for seventy or eighty years without losing any of its medicinal properties.
Qiao Xuan and her friends brought the honey to the only pharmacy in the county. The shopkeeper led them into the back hall, and after checking the honey, he was completely stunned.
"How did you get so many here? How did you do it?"
You know, wild beehives are hard to find, and it’s not easy to get honey from them.
Their clinic needs wild honey all year round, and in late spring and summer they hire people to go into the mountains and forests to look for wild honey, but they are lucky if they can find 200 to 300 kilograms of wild honey in a whole season. Sometimes they can find less than 200 kilograms.
Qiao Xuan smiled slightly: "I'm lucky! Boss, do you want it? If not, we can sell it somewhere else."
The shopkeeper was even more surprised to see that the person who spoke was a pretty young wife. He smiled and said, "It's not easy for you to come all the way here. Just take it if you want."
