As he spoke, he took the cabbage out of the basket; it was a very large head, weighing over ten kilograms.
As everyone looked at the bright green, extremely fresh cabbage, many swallowed hard.
"Where did you get this cabbage?"
Someone couldn't help but ask. Yan Ming shook his head: "I don't know, but it looks delicious."
After Yan Ming left, the Tan family held their breath in resentment.
"Han Lenghua's family went too far. They came empty-handed yesterday, without bringing anything."
After struggling for a long time, Tan managed to utter just this one sentence.
The fifth brother's wife's eyes darted around, thinking to herself: You've been beaten up like that, it's good enough that they're not coming to settle scores with you, and you still want to give them something?
However, the girl could casually take out such a good quality cabbage as a thank-you gift, so she must have food on hand, right?
Will things be better for Yan Gang's family after they leave? They won't go hungry, and they might even be able to eat their fill.
Tan's daughters-in-law were all very clever. Not only did the fifth son's family think of it, but the others also guessed the general idea. They were all preoccupied with their own thoughts and lost interest in complaining about the second son's family.
Finally, the boss said something:
"Mother, if that girl has a lot of grain, wouldn't driving away Yan Gang's family be like driving away a god of wealth?"
These words silenced Madam Tan. She was also feeling incredibly frustrated and resentful. If she had known earlier that the Han family had food, she would never have driven Han Lenghua away.
...
It was already dark when Han Luoxue got home. While getting things, she secretly added some more, but even after adding more several times, it still wasn't enough to sell.
In the end, they naturally returned home with a full load.
Lord Su also mortgaged the carriage to her, using eighty catties of corn. The price wasn't cheap, but it was still a bargain.
Han Yuchen immediately harnessed Zhuifeng to the carriage and drove it back, talking as they went. When they got home, Yunniang was stunned by the sheer amount of stuff in the carriage. Han Luoxue briefly recounted today's transactions, and Han Mingyuan sighed:
“I think this method is quite good. We should also ask around in the neighboring towns. With the help of the county government, we won’t even need to rent shops.”
They go there, sell, and leave, which is relatively safe.
Both of them agreed with this point.
There were still many people at mealtime, a large table full. Yunniang cooked relatively less in the evening, as she was quite particular about food. Han Lenghua's family had been going hungry; they couldn't handle too much oily food and needed to be fed slowly.
The group was eating when there was a knock on the door. Han Yuchen got up to check, and Uncle Han followed him out.
In the pitch-black night, a young man followed Han Yuchen in.
She was around twenty years old and wore a dark purple silk robe, so she must have come from a well-off family.
"This is a friend I knew before, who came over today."
As Han Yuchen explained, everyone in the room stood up to greet him. Accompanying him was a servant dressed as an attendant, also around twenty years old.
Han Mingyuan invited them to sit down. Yunniang got up to cook another dish, but Han Yuchen stopped her.
"He's not a picky eater; he'll eat the same things as us."
Han Luoxue remembered that she still had some cooked corn cobs in her space, so she got up and went to the kitchen to heat them up. She brought out more than a dozen of them.
The children broke the clothes to eat, and Han Mingyuan and the others had almost finished eating, so they didn't take any. However, Han Yuchen handed clothes to each of his two friends.
"His name is Zhou Yuan, and he's a businessman. He came from the capital."
Upon hearing that he was a merchant from the capital, Han Luoxue's gaze towards the man intensified. Although she had found a way to sell grain today, her output was even faster.
She was planning to visit the capital when she had some free time, but the person just showed up at her doorstep.
but……
Han Luoxue glanced at Han Yuchen, wondering if it was possible that Han Yuchen had found her a helper.
This person is someone Han Yuchen knows, so he should be reliable.
After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms. Han Luoxue followed Han Yuchen back to ask about the food.
"Miss Han."
"You can just call me by my name."
Zhou Yuan glanced at Han Yuchen and raised an eyebrow, but Han Yuchen remained silent.
"That girl named Luoxue, I heard her say that you have grain and vegetables. I wonder how much you have? Where can you deliver them to?"
Although this place is not far from the capital, transporting grain for a long time is just as dangerous if it gets out.
"How much could you possibly eat?"
Han Luoxue raised an eyebrow; she was now quite curious about this person's identity.
"More or less. I have seven or eight grain stores all over the capital. With such a large population, consuming them is not a problem."
"As for the price, if you can deliver it, the price is negotiable."
Zhou Yuan's words were so compelling that Han Luoxue was still quite tempted.
She also mentioned the current prices of grains and vegetables, and Zhou Yuan readily agreed.
Han Luoxue was very satisfied, and the two agreed to send him two thousand catties of grain and five thousand catties of vegetables first.
However, on her way back, she suddenly thought of a problem: how to deliver so many things?
Are you using the two horse-drawn carriages from your house? How long will that take?
Han Yuchen was still talking to Zhou Yuan inside; it seemed she needed to confess to him as soon as possible.
She wanted to hear Han Yuchen's secret before revealing her own, but it seems she won't be able to wait that long.
Although the space didn't give any notification, she felt that it was about to level up again.
I just don't know if she'll get what she wants most this time.
Now that they are engaged, she hopes Han Yuchen can recover as soon as possible.
Nothing happened that night. The next morning, Han Luoxue woke up and went to feed Zhuifeng water.
