In the afternoon, people from Toyota Village arrived, in large groups, a huge crowd.
Because of the distance, it was impossible to carry everything by hand. Those who had donkey carts or oxcarts would come, and those who didn't would rent them. Some even rented horse-drawn carriages to come.
Bags of fertilizer were transported away.
The road above was even blocked, and people even got into a fight because of it.
By evening, the surrounding villages realized what was happening and came over one after another.
The sound of silver coins being thrown into the basket was pleasant. When one of the Qiao family's baskets for storing copper coins was full, they replaced it with another.
The villagers who came gradually thinned out as the busy period continued until 9 PM.
I counted, and I earned over two hundred taels today.
"This is just the beginning; we'll be busy for the next few days." Old Mrs. Qiao counted the money, her eyebrows beaming with joy.
Qiao Lian'er secretly went to the warehouse and refilled several warehouses. Then she went to the old courtyard and filled the empty rooms and yard with fertilizer.
If anyone asks, just say that Lord Shi's entourage came by in the middle of the night.
The next day, villagers from the surrounding area flocked to the scene.
If the villagers who came yesterday were worried about not having enough fertilizer to sell, and thus came secretly to buy it, the news has now spread.
Looking at the scene, Zhao Lizheng couldn't help but sigh, "The last time it was this lively was when we were selling film, and it hasn't been that long. The Qiao family is really lucky."
The men trained at the camp, while the women sold fertilizer at home.
With so many people, things were inevitably chaotic, so Mu Xinghe, Mu Xingyue, and their childhood friends came to help.
When it was time to eat, everyone gathered together in a lively atmosphere, and the room was filled with laughter and cheerful conversation.
Two days later, someone from the county town came to Datian Village wanting to rent a shop from Qiao Lian'er.
Qiao Lian'er then realized that she had a vacant shop in Yongguan County that she wanted to rent out.
Now that we have so much money on hand, we can buy more shops. These things won't get lost, and their prices will even go up.
She had a sudden idea: grain, fertilizer, and plastic film could also be sold in the shop, and she could hire some people to watch over them.
Both Ning County and Yongguan County can open up markets.
These things are only sold in the village now. The village is a bit isolated, unlike in the city where you can spread your word to people from all directions.
She could have simply given the tenants the lease and keys and collected the rent, but considering all this, she decided to make a trip to the county town instead.
Upon arriving in the county town, they finalized the contract, agreeing to a deposit of one month's salary plus three months' rent in advance, totaling twenty-five taels of silver per month, and collecting a total of one hundred taels.
He went to Jishi Medical Clinic to see Doctor Chen and sold the medicines he had stockpiled during this period.
Twenty kinds of medicine, a batch every three days, but no more for half a month. There were five batches, each box weighing ten taels, and a thousand taels were easily obtained.
Then we went to find Boss Hu and Manager Cai, and delivered truckloads of supplies to the restaurant. Now that the collection team has gone far away, we can sell these ingredients with peace of mind.
They entered through the main gate, and when the other restaurant owners heard about it, they quickly came looking for them, and Qiao Lian'er did not refuse.
She told them to wait a moment, and once she was ready, she took them directly to the courtyard where Ah Da and the others lived, which was filled with food.
Shi Nanfu's entourage, numbering several dozen, arrived in horse-drawn carriages and made a brief appearance beside the abandoned courtyard.
Some shop owners stopped the queue, wanting to buy ingredients directly from them.
As a result, the price quoted by the Hu people was higher than the price offered by Qiao Lian'er, so they had no choice but to give up.
All the major restaurants bought several hundred kilograms.
In total, they made over 500 taels just from selling ingredients.
Some restaurants, however, paid with silver, leaving Qiao Lian'er with heavy pockets and a considerable amount hidden in her chest, making it difficult for her to walk.
It's much easier now that the silver is hidden in the carriage.
Just as she was about to go look at the shop, she remembered something else. Now that she was the local strategist, she should be able to help the children settle their household registrations.
