"I'm afraid he's a capable person from outside. We're lucky to have found him first."
Chunxiao received them and listened to them talking one after another. She felt that she had no chance to get a word in.
"Everyone, you are all here for cotton."
"Exactly, exactly. May I know your name, young lady? Where are you from? Are you the owner of this manor?"
"My surname is Yan, my name is Chunxiao, I'm from Qingzhou, and I'm indeed the owner of this manor. How did you find this place?"
"It wasn't easy to find out after asking around." They smiled. "Miss, did you sell a batch of cotton a few days ago? It looked like quite a lot. I asked around and found out it came from you, so we came here to look for you."
Chunxiao poured each of them a cup of tea and said, "Have a drink. It's hot."
"Girl, can you sell us this cotton?"
These cotton buyers seemed quite impatient. "We still have some time to harvest here, and we owe cotton to others, so I'm afraid it won't be that fast. If you can wait, I'll sell it to anyone! Of course it's fine."
When they heard this, they rubbed their hands happily and said, "I've been waiting for a long time. That's right, girl, how much do you want for this cotton?"
Chunxiao smiled, and was very cautious when asking for the price. "The person in front of me sold it for 130 wen per catty. Since you are here, I will naturally give you the same price."
When several people heard this, they were overjoyed. Two of them excitedly pounded their hands and looked at each other, and saw joy in each other's eyes. Chunxiao sighed. Her price must be a cheap one, otherwise people would not be so happy.
"Everyone, if you want to buy, you have to prepare your own bags. I don't have many bags here, and I can't make them in a hurry."
"No problem, no problem."
"We have our own bags, so there's no need for you to prepare any. We'll send them to you tomorrow."
"You haven't said how much you want yet." After they entered the yard, Zhao Shitou brought a few men from Chunyuan to guard the yard. This was also arranged by Xingfu. Last time, they were acquaintances and they were not afraid, but this time they were not familiar, so they still had to pay attention to safety.
"We each want 20,000 jin."
Nowadays, cotton is sold in units of tens of thousands. "Yes, we do, but please come back in mid-September. It's harvest season now, and I'm too busy here. How about we give it to you after we finish harvesting?"
"As long as the girl can guarantee delivery, mid-September is mid-September. Why don't we sign a sales contract?"
Chunxiao smiled. It turned out to be true. Finally, they took the contract and left satisfied.
