Chapter 115 Help Her Keep This Secret
As if he was worried that if he stayed here any longer, he would feel even more uncomfortable, so he did not stay any longer and set off back to the mountains.
The next day, when Cen Yan arrived at the Forbidden Forest, Ji Yunzhan was already waiting at the entrance.
She comes here at this time every morning during this period.
As soon as the two met, Ji Yunzhan led her into the forbidden forest.
After arriving at his residence and drinking a glass of water, Ji Yunzhan took out two taels of silver and handed the jade bracelet to Cen Yan: "The fifty-five fruits from last time were sold for seventy-five silver coins each, making a total of four thousand one hundred and twenty-five silver coins. We said before that we would split the profits fifty-fifty, so here we have two taels of silver."
He counted out sixty-five large coins and gave them to her. "Don't bother with me about these few coins, okay?"
"Since you said that, why should I bother with you?" Cen Yan took the money with a smile.
But she had no idea that Ji Yunzhan lied about the accounts. He clearly only sold thirty fruits, each worth seventy cents, but he reported more.
The reason why he did this was naturally to let Cen Yan take more.
"As for this bracelet, your guess is correct. Its origin is not simple." Ji Yunzhan repeated to her what Uncle An said.
"Strange, since it is the Cheng family's ancestral table, how could it end up in Xiangyao County? Isn't the Cheng family's base in the capital and northern border?" Cen Yan couldn't help but wonder after hearing this.
This was also what Ji Yunzhan couldn't figure out before.
"Maybe there is some unknown change in this." However, he still guessed, and said, "But from what Uncle An said, the general of the Cheng family is not tolerant of any injustice. You must hide this bracelet well and don't let anyone find it, especially your family members. They are so greedy that they definitely don't think of avoiding this. If the matter gets out of hand, I'm afraid your second branch will also be implicated. I'm afraid the Cheng family has been looking for the ancestral bracelet."
"Yes, you are right. Don't worry, I will hide this bracelet in a place where no one can find it!" Cen Yan said immediately.
Anyway, just throw it into the space and there is no way other people will find it.
She put the bracelet away and stopped talking about the topic, instead returning to talking about business.
"Although these fruits are only available here now, and it's getting close to summer, the fruit cores are not easy to grow and mature. They can only last for more than half a year, but once next spring comes, there is no guarantee that there won't be people who use the fruit cores to grow fruit tree seedlings. Then they won't be so easy to sell. Since the owner of Laiyun Restaurant said that he wants to buy a large amount, it means that his purpose is not only to buy locally, but also to sell to other places. Then we can take advantage of this half year or so to continuously supply him with goods. Anyway, I have as much as he wants."
The time in this space is different from that in the outside world, and the temperature and environment are very suitable for the growth of fruit trees.
Therefore, these nai fruits can grow continuously.
After she said this, she carefully observed Ji Yunzhan's expression.
After all, if she dared to boast that she had as many naiguo as she wanted, most people would definitely think it was abnormal or think she was lying, because generally speaking, autumn and winter are not the seasons for fruit trees to grow, so people would be suspicious.
But Ji Yunzhan didn't seem to be abnormal at all.
He nodded after listening, and said very naturally: "You are right, that's what I mean. Let's take advantage of the six months or so to ship a large amount. When someone grows naiguo fruit trees next year, we can carry out the 'recipe' plan you mentioned. We will make money step by step."
"Did Manager Chen say how much fruit he wanted next time?" Seeing that he didn't even ask himself where he got the confidence to supply the fruit, Cen Yan couldn't help but smile and asked.
"He hasn't said it yet, but I've told him that I'll be there tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and I can ask him then." Ji Yunzhan said.
"Okay." Cen Yan nodded.
She moved her lips, and finally couldn't help asking, "Ji Yunzhan, how dare you make such a promise without even asking me? After summer, it's autumn and winter. Autumn is still okay, but when winter comes, it's definitely not the season for fruit trees to mature. Don't you doubt that I dare to supply goods in winter?"
"Why are you talking about this again?" Ji Yunzhan seemed a little helpless with her, "Didn't you ask me before? I also said at that time that everyone has their own secrets that are unknown to others."
He himself has secrets that he cannot tell anyone, and it is impossible for him to ask Cen Yan to be honest with him first without explaining everything to Cen Yan.
And this was not the first time that Cen Yan heard him say this.
But every time she heard his serious answer, she still wanted to laugh.
"Well, that's right, so I still say that I will tell you when I can, but I don't ask you to share your secret with me!" Cen Yan said.
"If that day really comes, I will definitely tell you all my secrets." Ji Yunzhan promised seriously.
His appearance made Cen Yan laugh.
But Ji Yunzhan didn't think there was anything funny about himself. Seeing her like this, he frowned slightly, looked at her in confusion, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Cen Yan controlled himself and tried to hide his smile, "I just think you're so cute!"
"...cute?" This answer made Ji Yunzhan even more puzzled.
But when he savored these two words and thought of some random things, his cheeks couldn't help but turn red.
"Cough cough!" He quickly picked up the cup and gulped down a few mouthfuls of cold water to cool down his cheeks.
However, Cen Yan still noticed the red tips of his ears, and felt a little embarrassed when he thought of his own comments.
The room suddenly fell silent.
But this kind of silence was not awkward at all, but rather very peaceful.
"Well." After a moment, Cen Yan took the initiative to speak, "I can't carry so many fruits by myself. I need to deliver them one by one, but I can't let people know where my orchard is. How about this? Tomorrow I will move all the fruits to the entrance of the forbidden forest. Anyway, no one dares to come here. When you come back, find a car to deliver them to the county town. How about it?"
"Of course no problem." Ji Yunzhan wanted to say that he could help, but Cen Yan said that no one should know where the orchard was, so he gave up the idea.
Since it is a secret, it should be kept well.
What he could do for her was to help her keep the secret and prevent anyone from finding out.
Even if it was him, he absolutely could not do that unless she allowed it.
