Chapter 91 Are you afraid that others don’t know you have money?
After lunch, Xiao Jiuyue was about to continue checking to see if there were any omissions in the plan for Hongdu No. 1 Restaurant, or if there were any things she hadn't thought of yet, when she heard Lianxin report, "Shi Lizheng is here with people from Wan'an County."
Wan'an County?
Xiao Jiuyue instantly understood who Shi Lizheng brought with him. She silently estimated the time and found that it would take three hours to go back and forth. In other words, after Shi Lizheng received the letter from her, he immediately rushed to Wan'an County. At the same time, the head of Wan'an County rushed to Fu'an Village without stopping?
It seems that this village head cares more about sugarcane than she imagined.
"Brother Shi, does this Miss Xiao you mentioned really want all the sugarcane?" Wang Lizheng was walking back and forth in the front hall, his eyes constantly looking back. He looked at Shi Lizheng and said, "You're not lying to me, are you?"
"Old Wang, what are you talking about? Why would I lie to you?" Shi Lizheng's eyes were bigger than copper bells. He looked at him and said, "Miss Xiao bought all the oranges in our village last year. You know that, don't you?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Wang Lizheng couldn't suppress the smile on his face when he thought about all the sugarcane in the village being able to be sold. He excitedly grabbed Shi Lizheng's hand and said, "Brother Shi, if this really works out, you'll be my real brother! No, closer than a real brother!"
The way Wang Lizheng looked at Shi Lizheng was more affectionate than looking at his own mother!
"Go away." Shi Lizheng shook his hand away and looked at his sticky eyes and said, "If it works out, you can treat me to a drink. I want to drink the Luo wine from your father-in-law's house!"
"No problem." Wang Lizheng patted his chest and promised. He looked around, not knowing which direction this Miss Xiao came from. He said anxiously, "Why hasn't she come yet? Is she not coming?"
"Just wait patiently." Shi Li was sitting on a chair, sipping tea. One must say, this family was very particular. They used a tea tray and a tea lid to make tea, and they didn't mind the trouble.
"Come and have some tea. This tea smells so good." Shi Li was inviting him to have some tea.
Wang Lizheng looked back at Shi Lizheng who was drinking tea leisurely. He was so anxious that he didn't know what to do. He sat down next to Shi Lizheng and said, "It's already late, and you still have the mind to drink tea? What if..."
As soon as the words came to his lips, Wang Lizheng swallowed them back. He was afraid that if these unlucky words came out, what would happen if Miss Xiao really changed her mind?
"Your anxiety is useless." Shi Li was about to say something when he saw the red figure from the corner of his eye. He quickly stood up and said, "Miss Xiao, sorry to bother you."
"This is Wang Lizheng from Wan'an Village, Wan'an County." Shi Lizheng introduced enthusiastically and proactively. Seeing Wang Lizheng standing there dumbfounded, he pulled him up and said, "Old Wang, this is the Miss Xiao I was talking about."
"Hello, Miss Xiao." Wang Lizheng lowered his eyes repeatedly. He glared at Shi Lizheng secretly, and his eyes seemed to say: You didn't say that Miss Xiao was so young and beautiful?
In his entire life, he had never seen such a beautiful girl.
"Village heads, please take a seat." Xiao Jiuyue sat down immediately and asked directly, "Village Head Wang, I heard that you grow sugarcane in Wan'an County?"
"Yes." When Wang Lizheng mentioned sugarcane, his mind instantly sparked and he said, "Miss Xiao, the sugarcane we grow in Wan'an County is extremely sweet. Growing anything else is not as good as growing sugarcane."
"Who did you sell your sugarcane to before?" Xiao Jiuyue asked.
"I sold it to a sugar-making workshop in the city, but..." Wang Lizheng hesitated and was embarrassed to speak.
Shi Lizheng added, "Many people in Hongdu Prefecture grow sugarcane. We're lucky if we can sell even one or two out of ten. There's a lot of leftover sugarcane, and no one knows how to make sugar, so it's just wasted!"
Wang Lizheng glanced at him quietly. Is this something that can be said?
"Miss Xiao, the sugarcane we grow is really sweet, but Wan'an County is a little far away." Li Zheng Wang said a little embarrassedly, always feeling that he was giving the unsold and unwanted sugarcane to Miss Xiao!
"How much sugarcane can Wan'an County produce in a year?" Xiao Jiuyue asked, watching Wang Lizheng repeatedly say that the sugarcane they grew was very sweet. His simplicity made her almost forget the intrigues in the business world.
"As for our Wan'an Village, we can have at least 20,000 to 30,000 jin. In the whole Wan'an County, our village grows the most. Adding up, it's about 30,000 to 40,000 jin in total." Wang Lizheng still underestimated the number.
Sugarcane sales are low, and many fields are barren and uncultivated. If all of this were planted, it would be no problem to produce more than 100,000 kilograms!
The weather in Wan'an County is really suitable for growing sugarcane. You can grow a lot of sugarcane by just planting some sugarcane.
After hearing the output, she had an idea in her mind. She asked, "Then, how much does your sugarcane cost per pound in the city?"
"Two cents a pound." Wang Lizheng looked at her, afraid that she would think it was too expensive, and quickly added: "If Miss Xiao wants more, we can still lower the price. Because before, when we sold it to the provincial capital, we had to deliver it there."
Wang Lizheng's words were full of humility and caution. He sat upright, fearing that a careless word would offend Xiao Jiuyue, the God of Wealth.
Xiao Jiuyue looked at him with a smile and said, "Let's calculate it based on the price of two cents. However, if the order is over 100 catties, I'll give you one catty for free. If the order is over 10,000 catties, I'll give you 100 catties for free. Is that okay?" When doing business with an honest person, she would not be so picky.
Li Zheng Wang swallowed and asked, "You, how much do you want?" As long as she bought sugarcane, he would agree to give her 100 kilograms for free, not to mention 10,000 kilograms of sugarcane, even 200 kilograms!
"I want them all." Wang Lizheng almost fell off the stool after hearing Xiao Jiuyue's words.
Even after signing the agreement and holding the money for ten thousand catties of sugarcane, twenty taels of silver, Wang Lizheng still felt light-footed. He pinched Shi Lizheng's arm and said, "Brother Shi, I, I'm not dreaming, am I?"
"No." Shi Lizheng stretched out his hand and pinched it back. When he heard Wang Lizheng's face change and he cried out in pain, he let go and said, "You don't think I'm dreaming, do you?"
"It hurts, it's not a dream." Wang Lizheng held the silver in his arms, the smile on his face rising uncontrollably. He said excitedly, "Miss Xiao is such a kind person. Not only did she buy our sugarcane, she also let us plant more. No matter how much we plant, she'll take it all!"
"Then you should grow sugarcane well. If it is not sweet, you can't sell it to Miss Xiao." Shi Lizheng was also happy. He regretted cutting down the orange trees for firewood. How many years would it take to grow an orange tree that bears oranges?
If he had known that the day would come when all the oranges would be sold out, he would have chopped himself down rather than cut down the orange tree!
"Don't worry, I know. I will go back and tell everyone the good news. Brother Shi, I will treat you to a drink some other day." Shi Lizheng ran away anxiously with the silver in his pocket.
"Are you afraid that others don't know you have money?" Shi Lizheng looked at him and shook his head repeatedly.
Shi Lizheng stumbled, and the next moment, he returned to walking as usual, jumped onto the donkey cart, and immediately urged to go home quickly.
