Chapter 90 Business comes to you, Xiao Ying makes a big purchase
Chen Xinghe was immediately delighted and instantly realized that the other party must have eaten the potatoes and thought they were delicious, so he wanted to buy more.
"Yes, yes, yes. I wonder how much Mr. Liu wants?"
Liu Yunzhe pretended to be silent for a moment, then said, "Let's start with a thousand kilograms. These potatoes taste great, and I want the students in the academy to try them too."
There are two to three hundred students in Qingyun Academy, and a lot of food is consumed for lunch.
One thousand kilograms may sound like a lot, but it can actually be eaten in a few days.
Chen Xinghe felt like he was overwhelmed by happiness. He didn't expect that the other party would speak so confidently. Finally, he didn't have to feel guilty anymore.
"No problem." He agreed immediately: "There are more than 500 kilograms in the carriage. My mother will just have to pull it once more."
In fact, there was only one sack left in the carriage. No one knew about it anyway, so his mother could take it out at any time.
"That's good." Liu Yunzhe nodded with satisfaction.
I saw Xiao Ying had already entered the carriage, and after a while he carried out five bags of potatoes.
The doorman cleverly came forward to help, and the two of them weighed the five sacks together, and found that the total weight was 524 pounds.
"We still need another 476 kilograms from Old Man Liu." Chen Xinghe calculated it in one go.
Liu Yunzhe said, "I'll settle the bill once you bring the goods here."
"No problem, I trust Uncle Liu." Chen Xinghe smiled brightly.
The janitor began to carry the potatoes, and soon the five sacks were all loaded and placed in the room.
"Xinghe, wait here. I'll go back and get some potatoes."
Xiao Ying then spoke. She was very happy that she had unexpectedly sold an extra thousand kilograms.
"Okay, Mom, I'll wait for you here."
Chen Xinghe understood her intention almost instantly. She wanted him to stay and inquire about the academy. After all, this was a rare opportunity.
So Xiao Ying took Chen Xingyue away. She had to find Chen Xinghai and ask him to transport the rest over so that there would be no need to waste time.
Unexpectedly, Chen Xinghai was also looking for her. The two met in the alley where they had agreed to meet. Chen Xingyun asked her for potatoes and fruits as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Mom, we've closed two more deals, and they're big orders."
Chen Xingyun was overjoyed and couldn't wait to share her joy with her mother.
"I also have an extra business." Xiao Ying smiled. It seemed that he was lucky today.
So she filled two more cars and swapped deliveries so that they could be said to have just been delivered to the city.
Chen Xinghai and Chen Xingyue went to the academy, while Xiao Ying took Chen Xingyun to an inn.
By the time everything was delivered, it was almost noon.
When they returned to the Fulai Inn, they did some calculations and found that they had sold 3,600 kilograms of potatoes, which was almost 90 taels of silver.
The three kinds of fruits were sold for 3,000 kilograms, nearly 75 taels of silver.
The four children made great contributions, and Xiao Ying gave them all the shares that belonged to them.
Chen Xingyun earned the most, eighteen taels of silver.
The next one was Chen Xinghe, with thirteen taels, followed by Chen Xingyue, with eight taels, and Chen Xinghai had the least, with only five taels.
But since he didn't participate yesterday, he is already satisfied with this amount.
The few people who had earned money themselves were all excited and thrilled. They didn't know how to spend so much of their own money, so they decided to save it first.
"Are you tired?" Xiao Ying asked with a smile.
"Not tired." Four heads shook their heads together.
Having earned so much money, I don’t feel tired even if I am tired.
Xiao Ying said, "If you're not tired, let's go shopping. We have to hurry today."
She directly gave Chen Xinghai three hundred taels of silver, including two hundred taels of silver notes and one hundred taels of cash.
He was mainly asked to buy salt and oil, and to use the silver to buy as much as he could.
After buying it, they will meet here again, and she will put the things into the fairy palace.
Chen Xingyun and Chen Xinghai might be able to negotiate the price.
The remaining two followed Xiao Ying, and the two teams parted ways.
Xiao Ying went to buy jars first. There were many shops selling jars in the county town. She bought a total of 500 and placed them in the fairy palace in batches.
With so many things, even if they were placed in the immortal palace, they would take up a lot of space, so they could only be piled under the three acres of fruit trees.
During this period, I had two handovers with Chen Xinghai, who bought over a thousand kilograms of oil and several hundred kilograms of salt.
Seeing that he bought a lot of oil, the store owner gave him two cents off per pound. The barrels of oil each held hundreds of pounds, and when stacked together they took up less space than jars.
Next, Xiao Ying also started buying oil, salt, and seasonings such as pepper, star anise, cinnamon, etc.
The mother and son spent more than an hour visiting almost all the shops selling oil and salt, and only stopped after spending several hundred taels.
We bought 5,000 kilograms of oil and 2,000 kilograms of salt. Fortunately, each store didn't buy too much, so it didn't attract much attention.
However, they didn't know that someone had already been eyeing them, and it was Zhou Tianci and Yu Qian from Manxiang Garden.
The two were shocked and confused when they saw them shopping like this.
Where would they store all this stuff? How would they transport it back? If there were too many people, it would be difficult to do anything.
"It seems they received a large order from Ruyi Restaurant."
Yu Qian was very envious and if possible, he also wanted to work at Ruyi Restaurant.
"Hmph, once we finish off those desperate bastards, all these things will belong to me. I'm going to make them pay back everything they owe me!"
Zhou Tianci's eyes were cold and crazy. After learning where Xiao Ying was yesterday, he sent people to contact the bandits in Lion Mountain outside the city.
This woman had caused him such a big setback, he had to let her know how powerful he was.
Yu Qian was a little worried. The people in Lion Mountain were indeed reckless. Even the garrison in the county had fallen into their trap.
These people got the benefits and slaughtered Xiao Ying's family as easily as slaughtering chickens, which was effortless.
He sighed secretly and said from the bottom of his heart that he still admired Xiao Ying very much. A woman could achieve this level in a short period of time and surpass countless men.
The bad thing is that she offended Manxiangyuan. The Zhou family's influence in Yun'an County is not something a mere woman from a mountain village can contend with.
Xiao Ying and his family were having lunch at the Fulai Inn. After the meal, they planned to go back.
At the dinner table, Xiao Ying asked Chen Xinghe about Qingyun Academy, and Chen Xinghe suddenly seemed a little excited.
"Mom, I've found out everything from Old Man Liu. There are nearly three hundred students in Qingyun Academy, and they are mainly divided into two categories."
"One type is those who have real talent and are admitted based on their own abilities. The other type is those who come from wealthy or noble families and donate money and materials to the academy to get in."
"If I go in, I must rely on my own ability."
Chen Xinghe still had this confidence. Besides, his family didn't have that much money to donate to him, and he was not willing to do so.
"The class divisions are similar to those in town, divided into advanced, intermediate, and elementary levels. However, their advanced classes are all filled with scholars, aiming for the Juren and Jinshi degrees."
"The intermediate class is full of Tongsheng students, while the elementary class is for those who are qualified to take the Tongsheng exam. There is no Mengxue."
Xiao Ying nodded slightly, frowning and saying, "This requirement is a bit high. Do you think you are qualified to take the exam for Tongsheng now?"
She was not very clear about Chen Xinghe's specific level.
