However, this family still put such an important item up for sale.
For a moment, Xie Hongyuan couldn't tell whether the families behind the people in front of her were fearless or ignorant of the ways of the world.
But the yield of this blood rice must be quite high. If the source can be found, it will be of great benefit to the development of the family. She can also make considerable contributions to the family with this.
As Xie Hongyuan's mind turned, she already had her own ideas.
Blood rice is second best, but it cannot be missed either. After taking it back to the family, you can let the clan members study whether it can be grown again.
And the origins of these people must be clearly found out.
After the people from the other two families tasted the blood rice, the expressions in their eyes also changed slightly.
Obviously, the two of them had the same idea as Xie Hongyuan.
All four of them are pillars of their respective families, so how could they not understand the benefits that this blood rice can bring to the family.
Shi Jian, who was the first to taste the blood rice, sighed in his heart at this moment.
It would have been fine if he had revealed his flaws before, but now after several people have tasted the blood rice, they will definitely be able to discover the extraordinary nature of this blood rice. Now there is really no hope for him to eat it all by himself.
But he was still prepared to try.
“This rice is good.”
Gandhi, who had tasted the blood rice, nodded and chuckled.
Shen Li at the side also said in a hoarse voice:
"It's really good. I want to buy some, but I don't know how to sell it."
"Thirty jade coins per pound."
Even though people from the four major families were interested in her, Chen Tianjing still gave the same answer.
"Wait, everyone, let's have a first come first served basis when buying things!"
"I have already offered to buy all the blood rice. Are you guys going to break the rules?"
Seeing several people asking the price, Shi Jian could no longer hold back and spoke in a low voice.
Without waiting for the other two to speak.
Xie Hongyuan on the side smiled and said:
"Brother Shi, you are joking. If you pay the jade coins, or if he agrees to sell it to you only, I will naturally not interfere."
"But now that you haven't offered the jade coins and he hasn't agreed, how can you be considered to have broken the rules?"
Gandhi and Shen Li smiled but said nothing, but they had already made up their minds that they must get involved in this blood rice.
Hearing Xie Hongyuan's words, Shi Jian silently clenched his fists.
But the words were very clear, and Shi Jian was speechless. However, Shi Jian quickly turned his gaze to Chen Tianjing and asked:
"I have just agreed to buy all of them on behalf of the family. You won't go back on your word, will you?"
Since he couldn't convince the others, he might as well ask Chen Tianjing directly.
If Chen Tianjing agreed, the others would have nothing to say.
Chen Tianjing frowned slightly when he heard the question.
It was fine if it was just one family before, as he wouldn’t offend the other families if he sold it. But now, people from the four major families have come, and they all have their eyes on the blood rice. How should he deal with it?
If it is only sold to the Shi family, it will inevitably offend the other three major families, but if they disagree, it will also offend the Shi family.
Chen Tianjing was feeling quite troubled. He just came out to sell rice to support his family, but how did he get into such a complicated situation? His father didn't tell him how to deal with this situation.
But before Chen Tianjing could speak, Xie Hongyuan on the side laughed again:
"When buying things, naturally the one who pays the highest price wins. How about this, on behalf of the family, I will offer thirty-five jade coins per pound."
This damn woman!
Shi Jian cursed in his heart, but Xie Hongyuan was from the Xie family and her status in the family was no lower than his. Even though his Shi family was quite wealthy, he did not have many jade coins to use.
As for representing the family, it was just what he said. However, this trick works for ordinary people but has no deterrent effect on the other three families.
"Then I will also pay thirty-five jade coins on behalf of the family."
Gandhi and Shen Li on the side spoke one after another, their words full of indifference.
In a situation like this, they can just watch the show from the sidelines. Anyway, the family must get a share of the blood rice.
The words of several people revealed their respective thoughts.
Chen Tianjing's silence also made Shi Jian realize that this matter was not feasible. If he continued to pester the man, it would only benefit the rice seller.
Although the family has a lot of jade coins, we still need to be frugal.
After thinking for a while, Shi Jian's face returned to normal and he said:
"We are all from Yong'an City, so let's stop arguing. Since we all want it, why don't we each buy a little?"
"But I'm the first one here. I want 50% of this blood rice, and the other 50% will be divided among the three of you. Is that okay?"
After Shi Jian finished speaking, he looked at the other three people.
"Can."
This time, before Xie Hongyuan could speak, Shen Li on the side had already agreed.
Among the four major families, his Shen family is relatively weak and not as wealthy as the other three. His goal is to get a piece of the pie. The amount of blood rice is not important to him. At least he can report back to the clan.
If we continue to argue, the situation will become unfavorable.
After Shen Li spoke, Gandhi also nodded in agreement. He had the same idea as Shen Li. The amount of blood rice was not important. It was enough to have it. As for these people, could they still run away?
After the two spoke, Xie Hongyuan's smile disappeared. After hearing that Shi Jian wanted to take 50% for himself, Xie Hongyuan objected:
"No, you can only take 40%, and I want 30% of the remaining 60%!"
Gandhi snorted coldly, but seeing that the other two did not react, after a little hesitation, he said no more.
The Xie family has always been domineering in Yong'an City. Usually, the four major families do not interfere with each other, so there is no need to continue to entangle for this little bit of blood and rice.
After the four of them agreed, they quickly divided the blood rice in the bag.
As for the price, it remained the original thirty jade coins.
Chen Tianjing did not say much about this. If he really wanted thirty-five jade coins, he would undoubtedly offend the four major families. The current situation was the best outcome for him.
Dozens of furs of ferocious beasts in the Body Tempering Realm were still sold for 1,500 jade coins even after a 20% discount.
As for the two hundred kilograms of blood rice, it was sold for six thousand two hundred jade coins.
When the onlookers saw the many shining jade coins, their eyes lit up.
But several tribesmen didn't care at all and just stuffed the jade coins into the cloth bag casually.
They have no idea about these jade coins, and currently they only know that they can be used to buy things.
But they are not needed in mass graves.
Even though the jade coins were thin and light, when accumulated, they still filled half a cloth bag, but the weight was only over thirty kilograms, which a Body Tempering Realm warrior could easily lift.
This time, the family obtained a total of 7,700 jade coins, which seems to be a lot, but it is extremely insufficient to buy what the family needs.
For example, one plant of Arisaema confusa costs five thousand jade coins, and with this amount of jade coins, you can only buy one and a half plants.
However, the family did not sell many things this time, and there were still quite a few left.
The last crop of blood rice had a good harvest. After meeting the daily needs of the tribe members, there were still hundreds of kilograms left. If we continue to sell it in Yong'an City, I think we can get a good price.
