Chapter 84: To save or not?
Wan Xi stood up excitedly and said, "Thank you, Miss Ye. We can negotiate the price."
Zhang Juexia gestured for Wan Xi to sit down first, "Manager Wan, let's talk about the price first so as not to hurt our relationship.
As I said just now, the material cost of this thing is extremely high and it is also difficult to make.
In Shunhe County, I usually sell it for 300 wen a can. You have been very kind to us on weekdays. How about 200 wen a can? "
Wan Xi's heart skipped a beat. After all, he acted too late. Although the price was a little higher, it was still profitable.
He gritted his teeth and raised his glass, "Deal."
"Okay, I wonder when Manager Wan will need the goods?"
"Of course, the sooner the better. I also have a humble request. Could you please send some to our restaurant every month in the future? As for the quantity, please keep it the same as it is now. I will let you know in advance."
"No problem, Shopkeeper Wan, you are even more polite. My husband and I also hope that your business will be prosperous, so that we can both win."
Wan Xi listened to Zhang Juexia's nice words and got drunk unknowingly.
Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu still had things to do and didn't want to dwell on him over the wine table any longer. After a few polite words, they prepared to leave.
When Wan Xi saw them off, he specifically reminded them, "The canned food must be delivered soon, and when you come, send some game."
As Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu left Manfu Restaurant, the smiles on their faces became more and more uncontrollable.
"My dear, you have so many ideas. I was wondering what else I could do if I couldn't hunt anymore.
Now I find there is no end to the work!
All of this is thanks to my wife!"
"Today's lunch doesn't seem to have any honey or sugar. Why do some people have such sweet mouths?"
Ye Beixiu moved out of the carriage and said, "Madam, how about I drive the carriage and you sit inside."
Zhang Juexia glanced at him sideways and said, "You'll have plenty of opportunities in the future. Go in and sit down."
Although Ye Beixiu was unwilling, he still obeyed and entered the carriage.
Zhang Juexia first went to the grocery store to buy six pounds of rock sugar and ordered one hundred ceramic jars, and agreed to pick up the goods the day after tomorrow.
She drove her carriage to the market.
I was thinking if I could try my luck and buy some hawthorns to take home.
The man who sold peanuts last time was still there, which showed that he was not lying and that there were indeed too many peanuts at home.
Zhang Juexia got off the carriage and bought the man another bag of peanuts.
The man was so excited that he couldn't speak, and just said that Zhang Juexia was kind-hearted and a good person.
Everyone likes to hear good words. Zhang Juexia watched him carry a bag of peanuts to the carriage and put it away. "Do you sell hawthorns in our market?"
The man pondered for a moment and said, "Yes, it's just ahead. I'll take you there."
"I only know that you live in Liujiawan, but I don't know your name?"
"Liu Dalong, I'm a dragon, so that's how my parents named me."
Liu Dalong brought Zhang Juexia to a corner, and sure enough, there was an old lady selling hawthorns. "What she sells are all products from the mountains. She is a poor person. She and her grandson depend on each other for survival. Her grandson picks products in the mountains, and she sells them."
Zhang Juexia thanked Liu Dalong and went to buy hawthorns.
Hawthorns cost three cents per pound, and Zhang Juexia didn't bargain.
The old lady told Zhang Juexia, "I still have a lot of hawthorns at home. If you want more, come and see me."
"Okay, if I need you someday, I'll come to the market to find you."
Seeing that Zhang Juexia was struggling to carry a large bag of hawthorns, Liu Dalong stepped forward to lend a hand and helped put it on the carriage.
Ye Beixiu said a few polite words to Liu Dalong. During this time, Zhang Juexia bought another fifty eggs, and then the two left the market.
Having done everything that needed to be done, Zhang Juexia prepared to go home.
Zhang Qiuye went out to the street originally wanting to show off, but he never expected to meet Zhang Juexia and got very angry.
Who had such a long mouth? Before she even got home, what she did on the street had already reached the ears of Mr. Li, the rich man.
Zhang Qiuye was happily confined to her room for two months, the reason being that she needed to stay at home and take good care of her pregnancy.
Zhang Qiuye was so angry that he smashed everything in the house and reported the news to Qian Yulin.
Qian Yulin waved his hand calmly, "If something is broken, it's broken. I'll give it to the Eighth Concubine to make up for it."
Manager Yao was the first witness to the quarrel between Zhang Juexia and Zhang Qiuye on the street.
At this moment, Shopkeeper Yao was extremely impressed by Zhang Juexia, "Miss Ye, you are truly amazing.
I tried to get her to say anything, but she didn't say anything, nor did she complain. If it weren't for the Eighth Concubine, how would we have known about this?"
Mrs. Liu came over after hearing the news, "I told you, she looks 80% like Li Niang..."
Shopkeeper Yao curled his lips in disdain, "Now your Third Young Master can get married and have children with peace of mind.
I can tell you that she's living a good life and has no intention of getting close to you, so you don't have to pretend to be so hard."
Mrs. Liu was so embarrassed that she hesitated...
“Thinking back then, the only people who knew Li Niang were us sisters.
If you really want to help the child, you can always find a way. Besides, you can see at a glance that the mother and daughter look alike.
If your family wants to marry into a rich family and doesn't want to marry, just cancel the engagement.
Is it worth going to so much trouble?
You don't feel tired, but I, the audience, feel tired too."
Mrs. Liu's eyes were filled with tears. "Tao'er, there are some things you don't understand."
Mrs. Liu stumbled out of Yaoji Cloth Shop.
Shopkeeper Yao was so angry that he threw the scissors in his hand fiercely into a pile of cloth.
Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu were chatting on the way home.
"Madam, I feel like the price of this can of hawthorn is a bit high today."
"What's so high? Shopkeeper Wan is a shrewd man. If he doesn't sell a jar for one or two taels of silver, I'm afraid he won't be worthy of the meal he treated us to today."
Ye Beixiu was so surprised that he was speechless.
"My husband, you are still too naive.
We spend too much time with the mountains on a daily basis and have no idea how dangerous the outside world is!
So, I am the one sent by God to protect you."
Ye Beixiu's face turned red, and he started to falter. "My dear, don't talk nonsense."
Zhang Juexia burst into laughter.
There was a steep slope ahead, and Ah Hua was smart and stopped quickly.
Ah Hua started spinning in circles. Zhang Juexia jumped off the carriage to check. "Husband, is there someone here?"
Ye Beixiu supported himself with a wooden stick and jumped off the carriage.
He placed his hand over the man's mouth, "Still breathing."
"what to do?"
Ye Beixiu looked around and said, "There's no village in front of this place, and no shop in the back. It's cold. If I leave this person here, I'm afraid he won't survive."
Ye Beixiu thought for a moment, "My wife, saving people is the most important thing. We have Doctor Liu at home. Why don't we take him home? Maybe there is still a glimmer of hope."
Zhang Juexia wondered whether to save this man or not. After all, Liu Mingda was still hiding in their home. What if this man...
