He himself loves strong flavors, especially since winters here are already cold. He believes that this boiled fish dish will definitely be a huge hit once it's launched.
Su Muyao gave her father a wink, and the third son immediately understood. It seemed that his little girl agreed to sell the prescription.
"Then, shopkeeper, how much silver are you planning to offer?"
Su Muyao had never thought of selling her son before, otherwise she wouldn't have led the villagers up the mountain to dig for medicinal herbs. If she hadn't read a time-travel novel, she really wouldn't have thought of this so easily.
"Three dishes for 60 taels of silver, I wonder if that satisfies you, brother?"
Manager Wang gave the price after careful consideration.
Prices here are already low; both the cost of goods sold and the selling price are far lower than in other cities.
This price is already quite high.
Su Muyao had never imagined that a few simple dishes would bring in dozens of taels of silver, with a steady stream of money to come in the future. The thought made her quite happy.
"Deal. I won't drag things out since you're so straightforward, let's settle on that."
Soon, Manager Wang had someone bring over paper and pens, along with six large silver ingots.
Each silver ingot weighs a full ten taels.
Basically, the recipe had just been written down when the two chefs downstairs came over, humming a little tune, to start working.
The manager had previously instructed the waiter to call the chef to the private room if he arrived.
"Old Song, come here and take a look at the three recipes I just received today. You can learn them from the young man later."
The head chef was quite puzzled. Why would they accept a recipe? His restaurant had always been doing well.
The shopkeeper looked down on those recipes from outside, always feeling they were just so-so, and some were even worse than what he could make at home.
A recipe that catches the shopkeeper's eye must be a very good one.
Looking at the leftover food on the table, I figured that must be the new dish.
He finally nodded and followed Su Sanlang into the kitchen.
After teaching Chef Song, Su Sanlang ordered some specialty dishes at the restaurant and enjoyed the meal with his daughter.
When it was time to pay after the meal, the owner refused to accept the money.
Su Sanlang didn't insist on giving any more, thinking he would give more next time he delivered bean sprouts.
After eating and drinking their fill, they happily pushed their own cart out of the backyard.
Looking at my little girl's profile, I have no idea what surprises this little one will bring me in the future.
"Wow, you've made so much money today, let's buy some things, and I'll buy you some clothes too."
Su Muyao nodded, and then the two walked towards the fabric shop.
Finally, I spent one or two taels of silver to buy Su Muyao a little pink satin dress.
Su Muyao went to the street again and bought a hair accessory for her baby. Looking at the ugly hair accessory in her hand, she fell into deep thought.
There's nothing I can do; I don't want it, but my dad thinks I'm just being shy and insists on buying it for me.
The two strolled around the market again and bought about ten kilograms of pork ribs and pork belly.
As they passed the livestock market, Su Muyao heard the shouts from inside and glanced at her own cart.
I just felt that there would be many more places where I would need cattle in the future, so I might as well buy a cow, or if that didn't work, a donkey or a mule would also be fine.
Soon it will be time to start planting the crops we want to grow.
If there are no cows, it will be very inconvenient.
"Father, let's buy an oxcart."
Upon hearing his daughter's request, Su Sanlang immediately shook his head.
“Good boy, even though we’ve made money, we can’t just buy things randomly. We don’t need this at home, and your grandma and grandpa definitely won’t agree to it.”
Su Muyao began to reason with her father: "Our family will definitely be doing business in the future, especially now that we need to deliver bean sprouts. If we only use a handcart, we have to walk such a long distance and carry such heavy things, which is simply inconvenient."
Su Laosan ruffled his daughter's hair and said with a disapproving look, "Father, it's the same if you get up a little earlier."
"But think about it, if you get busy in the future and have to go several times a day, will you still be able to keep going back and forth like this?"
Ultimately, despite his daughter's various arguments, Su Sanlang still entered the livestock market.
I had just parked the cart at the entrance of the livestock market and was carrying my daughter inside when I was hit by a stench of manure.
As soon as I entered, someone came up to me and asked, "Young man, you're selling a draft ox that's only been around for less than two years and is just an adult, for a cheap price of 15 taels of silver."
Su Laosan frowned. How could it be so expensive? He quickly waved his hand and said, "Let me take another look."
The man said nothing more and continued to shout to the people coming in from outside, "Come and see the adult oxen, you can take them home for just a dozen taels of silver."
Do you have a donkey or a mule?
Upon hearing this, the man's enthusiasm immediately waned.
But he still said, "Yes, I'll take you there to see."
After saying that, he led the two men to a corner, and when they arrived, he called out to the old man who was feeding the donkey, "Uncle Ma, I've brought the donkey to you. Can you introduce it to me?"
Upon hearing this, the old man quickly wiped his hands and walked over enthusiastically.
"Thank you. You can go ahead and get busy. I'll treat you to noodles for lunch."
"Okay, I'll be waiting."
After saying that, the man turned and ran away.
Su Muyao frowned slightly, realizing that her father was still reluctant to buy a cow, so he had set his sights on a donkey.
Su Sanlang stepped forward to observe the three donkeys in front of him, and finally chose the one on the far left. He then went forward to check the donkey's tongue.
After confirming that it hadn't been more than two years, he finally asked, "Uncle, how much is your donkey?"
"I didn't expect you to be such an expert, young man. To be honest, this donkey was just acquired, it's just come of age and is quite plump and strong. If you want eight taels of silver, I'll also give you a wooden cart for free, how about that?"
Su Laosan glanced around and saw two brand-new donkey carts next to him.
Upon closer inspection, the wheels were also made of wood, and even the saddle was fully fitted.
"To be honest, sir, we only asked after we had already found out the price."
Eight taels of silver is indeed a bit too much. How about six taels? You can give me a cart and a whip as well. What do you think?
The old man thought to himself, "I've met someone who knows how to bargain!"
He quickly slapped his thigh and waved his hand, saying, "Young man, you really can't bargain like this. This price is really unacceptable."
"How about seven and a half ounces? I'll give you a discount of half an ounce."
"Sir, if that doesn't work, then forget it. Let me see, I really can't afford this price."
As Su Sanlang spoke, he picked up his little daughter and walked outside.
"Hey, young man, don't go! The price is negotiable, seven taels. That's the lowest price we can offer. Is that okay? I'll even throw in a whip for you."
"Six taels of silver, I really can't accept any more."
In the end, the old man had no choice but to nod in agreement.
"I'm selling it to you, but please don't tell anyone else about this price, or I won't be able to do any business in the future. It's really not profitable."
Su Sanlang just smiled and didn't respond.
Su Muyao watched from the side with her eyes crinkled with laughter. This was just like the old men and women haggling over prices at street stalls in her past life.
