Qian Ruoyu felt calmer, as all of these people around the old lady were good people.

Maybe we can consider a long-term order with them.

"This time, I am only here to buy your vegetables. Now that I see that your vegetables and fruits are so fresh, I am quite satisfied."

After receiving Qian Ruoyu's praise, everyone smiled.

But obviously because of Qian Ruoyu's identity, no one dared to say too much. Instead, they were all a little timid.

After all, Qian Ruoyu was the person with the highest status that everyone had ever seen, and for a moment they didn't know how to face Qian Ruoyu.

The old lady smiled.

"They are all orphans that I found in several nearby villages. They are all without a father or a mother."

"They are so pitiful. I feel sorry for them, so I took them in and gave them food, water and shelter. They only need to help me do such a small thing every month, and I will give them two hundred yuan each."

Two taels of silver is equivalent to two thousand coins, which is not a small amount of money.

And these people obviously haven't started a family or a career, so they can save more money, not to mention that they can work and eat with the old lady.

Qian Ruoyu admired the old lady even more. If such a person lived in modern times, he would definitely be called a great person by others.

Raising orphans and making money with them is already kind enough.

Qian Ruoyu then said.

"Alright, alright. This princess is just here to check on your vegetables and fruits. You don't need to be so nervous. Go back and do your own things."

Everyone then returned to their positions. Some were taking care of the vegetables, while others were removing the fallen leaves from the vines. Everything seemed to be in order.

The old lady at the side immediately said to Qian Ruoyu.

"How is your Highness Princess? Are you satisfied?"

Qian Ruoyu nodded slowly and spoke to the old lady.

"Ma'am, what's your name?"

The old lady introduced herself: "My surname is Zhou, and I was the wife of the Minister of Personnel of the previous dynasty. However, because of some trivial matters, my entire house was confiscated, and my husband...could not bear the pressure and passed away."

"Then I packed up my belongings, dismissed all the servants, and reluctantly gave them all the remaining belongings. I only had a few dozen taels of silver left for myself, and I also started a small business."

After hearing these words, Qian Ruoyu was even more shocked.

Qian Ruoyu never imagined that Aunt Zhou's experience would be so bumpy, and that she had experienced so many ups and downs in her life in her forties.

And the most important thing is that Aunt Zhou didn't feel sad at all at this time, and she was able to support several people through such a small business.

There were a total of ten people in the yard, and almost all of them looked very smart, obviously because of Aunt Zhou.

After thinking of this, Qian Ruoyu admired Aunt Zhou even more.

"Auntie Zhou, I wonder if you are interested in negotiating a long-term order with me... No, a long-term deal!"

If we talk about orders these days, I'm afraid no one can understand it.

When Aunt Zhou heard Qian Ruoyu say this, her face immediately turned red and she looked at Qian Ruoyu in shock.

"This... Madam, please tell me what you want..."

Qian Ruoyu said calmly.

"Your fruits and vegetables are so good, and you don't look like a bad person. I think I can try to buy all your fruits and vegetables. I wonder if you are interested?"

Hearing this suddenly, Aunt Zhou's heart trembled and she quickly covered her chest. Qian Ruoyu also quickly supported her.

"Auntie, what's wrong with you? Are you so excited?"

Aunt Zhou said with a smile.

"You don't know, but selling these fruits and vegetables every day is not a simple job... Sometimes when business is bad, there will be hundreds of pounds of leftovers, and we can only digest them ourselves..."

"Now that I hear your words, it means that we will have a place to get our daily fruits and vegetables!"

"This... Madam, you are not kidding me, right?"

Qian Ruoyu smiled and shook her head.

"I never joke with you. Let's calculate the price and have a good talk about it. From now on, I will buy vegetables from you every day and I won't have to communicate with anyone anymore."

Aunt Zhou nodded quickly and then introduced.

"Inside this yard are the vegetables we need to sell every day. In that corner are some rotten vegetables and fruits that we picked out. Except for the vegetables and fruits in that area, we can sell everything else."

Qian Ruoyu glanced at the corner of the yard, and sure enough, there was a large jar piled in the corner, with some tattered vegetables in the jar.

After seeing this, Qian Ruoyu felt even more reassured.

"We have about several hundred kilograms of vegetables every day. The quantity varies, but I think it should be enough to supply the entire palace..."

Seeing that Aunt Zhou was a little conflicted, Qian Ruoyu asked directly.

"Auntie, our business is actually very simple. There is no need to worry so much. Just like this, you need to prepare at least 300 kilograms of vegetables for me every day!"

"I don't care how much these vegetables and fruits are, as long as they are of good quality. I will give you five taels of silver every day. What do you think? If you think it's not enough, we can add more."

But after hearing what Qian Ruoyu said, Aunt Zhou was stunned.

Five taels of silver a day, that's a full one hundred and fifty taels of silver a month. After deducting the cost of the stall and the small warehouse, the old lady can still get more than one hundred taels of silver.

When she thought of this, Aunt Zhou couldn't help but pinch her face.

"I... I'm not dreaming, my lady. Are you sure you're not kidding me? If that's really the case..."

Aunt Zhou couldn't continue speaking anymore, after all, she was too excited at the moment.

Qian Ruoyu still spoke calmly.

"Auntie Zhou, you should take your time. Even so, although I will give you 150 silver coins every month, you must control the quality of the vegetables!"

"If the quality of the vegetables is fine, I will give you 150 taels of silver every month. But if there is any mistake, I will hold you responsible!"

Aunt Zhou nodded quickly.

"Yes, yes, please rest assured, Princess!"

"Being recognized by the palace makes me feel very satisfied. I also get 150 silver coins every month. How can I not take it seriously?"

After saying this, Aunt Zhou looked at the others.

"Did you all hear that? We don't have to worry about no one buying our vegetables anymore!"
