Chapter 1033 I Believe in You
Shopkeeper Wang collected so many watermelons and strawberries, and it was impossible to sell them only to people in Yinchuan County.
But Shopkeeper Wang has a wider network of contacts. They don't have rare items like watermelons and strawberries, so no matter which county he sells them in, he doesn't have to worry about sales and prices.
So Shopkeeper Wang contacted people in several nearby counties and sold the goods directly one truckload at a time.
It was just a transfer of money, and Manager Wang also made a lot of money.
By the second year, watermelons and strawberries were sold directly to the provincial capital.
Now, Su Ruanruan and Xiao Chengjin didn’t know whether watermelons and strawberries had become popular. Anyway, strawberries could only be sold for twenty cents per catty, while watermelons were sold for fifteen cents per catty.
The price is half of what it was at the beginning, but it's still profitable.
Not to mention Yangcheng Village, even several villages nearby have started planting.
After all, we are all relatives, so it is not surprising to get some seeds.
Whether it is Su Cangshan or Xiao Yougen, they don't care how many people grow watermelons and strawberries. When watermelons and strawberries were the most profitable, they had already made a lot of money. Although they didn't make as much as before in the past two years, it was still a lot.
With the money they earned, the Su family bought dozens of acres of good land and added two cows and two mules to the family.
Every year, whether it was summer or autumn planting time, they would just hire some people and provide them with cows and mules, so Su Qin and Su Li no longer had to work in the fields.
The Xiao family not only bought land, but also built a new house, and also bought cows and mules. When sowing and harvesting, they would also pay people to help. Neither Xiao Wangshi nor the four sisters of Xiao Danniu needed to work in the fields.
Xiao Danniu is already seventeen years old this year and has already been promised a husband. It is time to get married in the winter when everyone is free.
The conditions of the Su and Xiao families have improved, and their children have more money.
Su Runrun and Xiao Chengjin, who were studying abroad, had even more money.
Su Ruanruan and Xiao Chengjin would give some pocket money every time they went home.
Even if the two of them did not go home, Sui Cangshan or Xiao Yougen would come to the county town to see them, and would give them some silver before leaving, in case of emergency.
Xiao Chengjin still had to buy some pens, ink, paper, inkstone and books, but he had a lot of silver left over. Su Runruan needed to spend even less money, so she saved several dozen taels.
Su Ruanruan's family lived in the pharmacy, so of course she knew the price of each medicinal material. After calculating the total amount of money needed, she took out the silver from the treasure space and handed it to Xiao Chengjin, "Be careful! Don't let anyone see us!"
Su Runruan was still a little worried. Although Yinchuan County was not small, Xiao Chengjin had been in the county for three or four years and often went in and out of Huichuntang. It was inevitable that he would be remembered by someone with ulterior motives. If people knew that Xiao Chengjin had secretly bought so many medicinal herbs and came back to ask about it, Su Runruan really didn't know how to explain it.
Xiao Chengjin rubbed Su Ruanruan's head and said, "Don't worry!"
How old is he? How can he be targeted when buying medicinal herbs?
If he can't even do such a simple thing, then he has lived in vain all these years.
Seeing the smile on Xiao Chengjin's face, Su Ruanruan's originally uneasy heart also settled down, "Okay, I believe you!"
Yes! If I don’t trust him, who else can I trust?
