Chi Qiaoke hadn't considered that since the two families would be in-laws, she would have to offer discounts on these items.
For her, this matter involved her sister's interests.
Even if Zhong Yufeng marries into the family, she will still be a niece-in-law and should respect her elders, not expect them to do anything for her.
Therefore, she did not back down, but insisted:
"In that case, we'll talk about it later."
This is the first of its kind in the Great Chu Kingdom.
With such high yields, I don't think we'll have to worry about selling them.
Let alone selling to individuals, I reckon the imperial court also wants to collect the money.
After all, once the government-owned fields are cultivated and the results are available, they will definitely need to be reported.
Once the imperial court confirms that it is a high-yield crop, it will definitely promote it throughout the entire Da Chu Kingdom.
To be honest, the little we grow isn't even enough to cover the distribution to local government offices, let alone sell to individuals!
Wang Yunjuan never expected that Zhou Sanya, an illiterate village woman, could say such things.
However, considering Chi Yu's intelligence, she thought that perhaps Chi Yu had told her sister-in-law.
That's why Zhou Sanya is so confident!
It seems she really underestimated the innocent bystander.
When she was at the Qin family's house, the girl seemed very kind and gentle.
She always had her sister-in-law do everything.
It was as if her sister-in-law was the one in charge.
In retrospect, she had misunderstood.
Jiao Niang had thoroughly investigated Zhou Sanya's life story.
A woman born in a rural village, after getting married, stayed in Chijia'ao to manage her household.
Her knowledge and experience were restricted; how could she possibly know these things?
Although Chi Yu is still young and grew up in the mountains, she is clever.
After marrying Qi Mingyu, she spent nearly two years at the foot of the mountain, living in a large village near the county town.
My husband's family were scholars, and my parents-in-law were literate, so naturally there were many books in the house.
She was already intelligent, and she had someone to teach her to read and so many books to read.
Therefore, it's not surprising that she knows a lot.
Just like the Grand Tutor of today, I heard that he started his education at the age of three and could recite the Four Books and Five Classics by the age of five.
He took the preliminary examination for children at the age of seven and became a scholar at the age of ten.
She also heard that the Grand Tutor became the top scholar in the imperial examination at the age of sixteen.
With such outstanding people ahead of us, it's not surprising that adults, who are just innocent bystanders, can learn everything in just two years.
Chi Qiao was unaware of Wang Yunjuan's inner thoughts.
Seeing that the other person remained silent, she lost interest in continuing the conversation.
Chi Kang, who had been keeping a close eye on the situation, overheard their conversation.
He was a staunch supporter of his own aunt, even his parents had to come after her.
Therefore, when he realized that his future mother-in-law, Wang Yunjuan, wanted to buy the potato seed from his sister-in-law at a low price, he was unwilling.
In his view, these things are unique in the world.
The fact that the eldest aunt was willing to sell to the second branch of the Zhong family when there was a surplus of goods was all because of his aunt's kindness.
The second branch of the Zhong family is not short of money, so there is no reason for them to sell their aunt off cheaply.
Otherwise, let alone 100 coins per pound.
Even if he raised the price to two hundred or three hundred coins, there were still plenty of people willing to buy it.
One mu (unit of land area) can yield several thousand jin (unit of weight). That's more than ten times the yield of one mu of rice in a good year!
