Only then did Shi Qingluo stop beating Shi Laosi and let him go.
She rubbed her wrist and complained, "If grandma had done this earlier, I wouldn't have to work so hard."
Old Lady Shi: “…” You’re working so hard.
It's her son who's suffering, okay?
When Lao Si was released, he immediately hid behind the old lady, rubbing his face and hands.
It really hurts when that damn girl hits people. No wonder my third brother and his sisters-in-law are so afraid of her.
"Mom, it's important to talk about business." He pulled the old lady's sleeve and whispered.
Old Lady Shi finally managed to hold back her reluctance and said to Shi Qingluo, "Daya, our coming here today is a good thing for you."
Shi Qingluo guessed it as soon as he heard it. In addition to wanting the tofu recipe, these people's main purpose should be the homemade bomb.
But he pretended not to know, "What good news?"
Old Lady Shi said, "The Wu family is very interested in the little black ball in your hand and wants to buy it with silver."
Shi Qingluo played with the cane and asked, "What's the price?"
Shi Lao Si said, "Five taels of silver each."
Shi Qingluo raised his eyebrows, "Sending away beggars?"
He looked at Shi Lao Si with a half-smile and asked, "How much kickbacks did you take?"
Shi Lao Si: “…” This damn girl must have transformed from a fox, she’s so cunning.
He hated it so much in his heart, but he couldn't help but force a smile on his face, "You're joking, we are just matchmakers, and the Wu family said they would give some rewards."
This is not admitting to taking kickbacks.
Shi Qingluo was too lazy to ask about this. "Go and tell the Wu family that I will give them a small black ball for 100 taels. If they want it, they can buy it. If they don't want it, forget it. I won't have any trouble selling it."
Shi Lao Si was very upset, "One hundred taels, you might as well go and rob it."
The Wu family used to give ten taels of silver per person, and they planned to spend five taels of silver per person.
The damn girl actually dared to bid ten times the price offered by the Wu family.
Shi Qingluo sneered: "One hundred taels of silver each, to buy the little black balls refined by my old immortal master, that's all earned by the Wu family."
"Do you think the Wu family is as poor as you? You have no sense at all."
Shi Laosi and others: "..." Just talk about the matter, don't imply anything about them! This dead girl's mouth is so annoying.
Niu was shocked and said, "But one hundred taels each, isn't it too expensive?"
One hundred taels for a small black ball. This was the price when I sent the dead girl to marry into the Wu family.
Shi Qingluo raised his eyebrows and said, "Does the Bai family know? They even came to our house for dinner today."
"If the Wu family can't afford it, Young Master Bai can."
"Just tell the Wu family the price. They will most likely agree to it."
"Then, little black ball, you can ask the Wu family for five or ten more taels of silver as the cost of your escape and persuading me."
"I'm the only one who's still thinking about you guys." She gave Jipin a look that said, "I think that's good enough."
Anyway, it was Shi Laosi who went to ask for the money. The little black balls she made herself had limited effect and she couldn't work out the exact formula. The Wu family's main focus of anger was on the Shi family.
Especially these top-notch products made a small fortune.
Originally, she was still thinking about how to find Shi Laosi and talk about selling homemade bombs to the Wu family.
Who knew that these top-quality products would be delivered to our doorstep.
Since it was offered to me voluntarily, I would rather take advantage of it.
Who made these top-notch people still think about how to make tofu?
If it weren't for her strong fighting skills, these top talents of the Shi family would have definitely been bullying the Xiao family by now.
Shi’s family: “…” They didn’t believe that the dead girl would be so kind.
Old Madam Shi turned to Old Fourth Shi and asked, "Go ask the Wu family and tell them that if they don't buy it, the Bai family will."
Although she was an old country lady, she knew that if someone was fighting for it, it would sell better.
She felt so heartbroken that the dead girl earned so much money in just one go.
Shi Qingluo also smiled and said, "Yes, just tell the Wu family that."
She guessed that the reason why the Shi family's best person came today was probably because the servant who followed them went back to report. The Wu family might have misunderstood that Bai Xu was also coming for the little black ball.
Or maybe he was afraid that Bai Xu would discover the little black ball and seize the opportunity, so he couldn't wait.
If Xiao Hanzheng had not been a famous scholar in the county, they would have been easily discovered if anything happened to them.
A new county magistrate has been appointed, and the Wu family is at the center of the storm, so their methods will not be so gentle.
But Shi Qingluo was sure that even if she gave the Wu family the real little black ball, the Wu family would never let her go.
If what she gave was a real little black ball, and the Wu family had developed the real formula, then she would be killed by the Wu family soon.
So whether it was cheating the Shi family or the Wu family, she had no psychological burden.
Shi Lao Si was also nervous, fearing that the little girl would give the black ball to the Bai family. He had guaranteed with the Wu family that he could get it.
"I'm going to the county town now."
Shi Qingluo waved his hand, "Go quickly. No matter what the result is tonight, don't come to the Xiao family to disturb me. We can talk about it tomorrow."
Tonight she also has to make homemade bombs that are reduced in power to about the same level as enlarged firecrackers.
Shi Lao Si: “…” That little girl looks so arrogant, look at what she can do.
He could only nod frustratedly, "Okay, let's come back tomorrow."
Wait until he has completely gotten close to the big tree of the Wu family, and then pass the examination to become a scholar, and then we’ll see how he deals with this damn girl.
He remembered the beating he received in public today.
After hearing what Shi Lao Si said, Shi Lao Tai and others had no choice but to leave the Xiao family reluctantly.
After leaving, Old Lady Shi and the others were still complaining, "That damn girl is so ungrateful. Even if we learn how to make tofu, we won't be able to steal much of her business."
“What a pity.”
Shi Laosi rolled his eyes and said, "Mom, after I get married to the Wu family, I will find a way to seize the tofu workshop and open it ourselves. Now let that damn girl be arrogant first."
The old lady's originally sullen face instantly revealed a smile, "Yes, we will just seize the tofu workshop from now on, otherwise that dead girl will cry."
Thinking of this, everyone felt a lot more comfortable.
Shi Laosi did not go home, but went directly to the Wu family in the county town.
As Shi Qingluo expected, the Wu family became anxious when they heard that she might give the little black ball to Bai Xu.
Although one hundred and ten taels is too expensive for one, if the power is really that great and can be researched, then it would actually be worth one thousand taels.
The head of the Wu family was very smart. He had guessed that each small black ball weighed ten taels, and Shi Lao Si must have swallowed it himself.
But since he had already paid a lot, he didn't care about this little money.
Now let that damn girl and the Shi family take advantage of it, and in the future they will not only have to spit it out, but also pay with their lives, hum! Therefore, he agreed to the request.
On the other side, Shi Qingluo began to make an improved version of the homemade bomb.
A lot of medicinal powder and stone powder were added to it, and after mixing it was guaranteed that the Wu family would not be able to figure out the formula.
Xiao Hanzheng also accompanied Shi Qingluo to the mountains to test the effect.
He adjusted it to a level acceptable to the Wu family, but was unable to develop a real homemade bomb, so he went down the mountain.
Of course, it’s the kind that can’t kill people.
It sounds scary but its power is limited. Otherwise, it would be bad if the Wu family used it to do evil.
