Chapter 394 Doing Business with Bandits
"Do you have a lot of black fungus there?" Xiao Jiuyue listened to Xu Yang's words, with a hint of deep thought in her eyes. Black fungus is good. Stir-fried chicken with black fungus and cold-mixed black fungus are all good things!
"Yes, there are a lot of black fungus in our place. However, if you eat black fungus too many times, it will not taste good anymore. If Miss Xiao wants it, I will give it to you next time." Xu Yang said with a smile.
"Have you ever thought about selling it?" Xiao Jiuyue asked.
When Xu Yang heard this, he looked at the headmaster standing beside him. The headmaster said, "This mountain is full of wood ear mushrooms. If anyone wants to eat them, they can eat them freely. Only a fool would spend money to buy them!"
"ah!"
Xiao Jiuyue was immediately interested when she heard this and said, "A fool wouldn't spend money on fungus, but I do. So, are you interested in doing business?"
"Doing business?" The boss didn't react yet.
Xu Yang said excitedly: "Miss Xiao, can fungus really be sold for money?"
"Yes," Xiao Jiuyue said affirmatively. She took out the fungus that Xu Yang and the others had given her and said, "I think the fungus you brought is of good quality. So, when you go back, bring me as many as you can and I'll buy them all!"
"Ah!" The boss was stunned.
Xu Yang immediately said, "Miss Xiao, we also grow navel oranges there. They're different from tangerines. You can try it."
“Are there a lot of navel oranges?”
As soon as Xiao Jiuyue asked, Xu Yang said, "A lot. We have a lot of navel orange trees in Jiutou Village. They're all navel oranges, and they taste delicious!"
“Not only navel oranges, but also fish cakes.”
Xu Yang said, like a local vendor selling local products: "In addition to these, we also produce medicinal herbs such as Gastrodia elata, Coptis chinensis, and Poria cocos. Miss Xiao, do you want some?"
The boss sitting aside was stunned and had no idea what Xu Yang meant by what he said.
Soon, the boss understood.
Xiao Jiuyue and Xu Yang started a business.
"Xu Yang, tell me, is Miss Xiao trying to trick us?"
The boss's steps became unsteady as he followed Xu Yang to the front yard for dinner. He was persuaded by Xu Yang to come to Hongdu to give gifts to thank Miss Xiao so that they could have enough food to eat. Who knew that Miss Xiao actually did business with them.
Just now when Xiao Jiuyue was here, the boss was too embarrassed to speak. Now that only he and Xu Yang were left, the boss became excited. If the business deal with Xiao Jiuyue could be really done, the people in their Jiutouzhai would not only be able to have enough food to eat, but also live a good life!
"Brother, when did Miss Xiao lie to us?"
Xu Yang looked at the big boss seriously and said, "Brother, I said that people are mutual. Miss Xiao helped us, and we should be grateful. Look, now Miss Xiao is helping us again."
"Brother, we will go back tomorrow. Let's bring more things here before it snows." Xu Yang looked at the boss excitedly.
Until dinner time, the boss was still feeling dizzy and felt that something was not real. Soon, he saw Xiao Jiayuan and Xiao Jiachen who were sent to receive the guests.
"You, you are Young Master Jiayuan?" When Xu Yang saw Xiao Jiayuan, he exclaimed, "Young Master Jiayuan has grown a lot taller."
He was short before, but after only two years, Xiao Jiayuan has grown taller and stronger, and the childishness on his face has gone. He no longer looks like a little brat like before.
At this time, he pretended to be an adult and could still be seen as a child, but he looked different and had the demeanor of a young master!
"Boss, Brother Xu, on behalf of the Xiao family, I welcome you and would also like to thank you for sending so many local specialties. I'll drink tea instead of wine. Cheers!" Xiao Jiayuan is not very old, but he is not afraid of the boss at all.
The eldest master was a little reserved at first, but soon, he lost all his reserve. He said drunkenly, "Xu Yang, look at this. This young master from a wealthy family is really different. He's still a child, but he can say such beautiful words!"
“We can even entertain guests!”
The big boss patted Xu Yang on the shoulder and said, "Xu Yang, I'm glad I listened to you. Otherwise, we wouldn't be living such a good life in Jiutou Village now, and we wouldn't have to worry about not having enough to eat!"
"Brother, I'm happy too!" Xu Yang, who never drinks, also started drinking. In the end, he became brothers with Xiao Jiayuan!
backyard.
Xiao Jiuyue ate fresh cold-mixed black fungus and stir-fried black fungus with chicken, as well as Jiutoushai's specialty, fish cakes, which were a bit like fish balls, but tasted different. She said, "Mom, this tastes great! I think if we develop new recipes, Fengchunlou can come up with new dishes!"
"Although they are bandits, they are more grateful than some people who claim to be good people!" Su looked at the dishes in front of her, as well as the fruit called navel orange. She had only heard of it before, but had never eaten it.
"They have come from so far away and brought so many things. Yue'er, do the remaining people have food to eat?" Su asked.
Xiao Jiuyue replied: "Mom, don't worry, I have already asked the kitchen to arrange to send the prepared meals to the village entrance, and then they will be able to eat hot meals."
"As for the night, I want them to stay at the farm." Xiao Jiuyue asked: "Although they are bandits, they have reformed now and will cooperate with us in the future. We can't let them stay when they come, right?"
"That's true, but they..." There was a hint of worry in Su's eyes.
"I'll have Jin Wen and Jin Wu guard them and ensure they live in peace and don't dare cause trouble." Xiao Jiuyue's reassurance reassured Su: "Okay, you can handle this matter. However, you must not tell the villagers that they are bandits, or they will be frightened."
"Don't worry, just say they are relatives who came from afar?" Xiao Jiuyue already had an excuse. Anyway, his cousin Qi family and the merchants had all come before, but they brought fewer people, unlike the bandit brothers who brought dozens of people.
At night, Xiao Jiuyue leaned over the desk, looking at the agreement signed with Jiutouzhai today. The people of Jiutouzhai are all strong and healthy. If they can follow He Changqing and Chu Ang to deliver the escort together, they will be good talents!
Jiutouzhai, I know everything about it!
"Miss, they are bandits. What if they don't change their bandit nature? Isn't there a saying that goes, 'A dog will always eat shit.'" Luo Kui was a little worried.
Lian Xin, who was grinding ink, said, "That's not necessarily true. I came back with them today. If they didn't tell me, who would know they were bandits? Besides, the people in Jiutou Village are different from the Eighteen Villages. They were forced to do so because they had no food to eat, so they robbed others!"
"Also, I heard from Manager Jin before that the bandits in Jiutouzhai are quite principled!" Lianxin added.
