Chapter 1477

Chapter 1477

Tea in Jiangzhou cannot be sold at a high price, and many tea trees are sold at low prices. Now in the market, a tea tree is indeed priced at this price. Ordinary flowers and trees are sold more expensive than tea trees.

The flowers and trees planted by Shen Wan were more expensive than the Ning family thought, because there were many types, such as osmanthus, jasmine, roses, etc., and the prices of each were different. She had spent three hundred taels of silver when she bought them.

The Ning family could accept three hundred taels of silver, so they nodded on the spot and said, "Okay, three hundred taels is just three hundred taels."

Three hundred taels plus six hundred taels is only nine hundred taels, which is less than one thousand taels of silver!

"My workshop at the foot of the Tea Mountain was also burned down. When I built the workshop, the labor cost plus the cost of lumber and the tools in the workshop totaled three hundred taels of silver. You also have to compensate for this."

As soon as Shen Wan finished speaking, the people outside the door said, "You really deserve compensation."

"We will compensate." The Ning family eldest man said very grandly.

"The man guarding the tea mountain was injured by you. It cost ten taels of silver to get him treated by a doctor yesterday. He suffered a head injury and will not be able to recover without recuperation for more than half a year. Your Ning family has to pay for his missed work expenses. , he has twenty taels of silver a month, half a year and six months, that is twelve taels. And he has left so much blood. To make up for the blood, he has to spend money to buy chicken, duck and fish. You have to pay him ten taels of silver. Nutrition fees, and..."

Shen Wan still wanted to pay for mental damages! The Ning family's elder directly interrupted her, "Don't forget about it. We will directly pay one hundred taels of silver to the injured mountain guard."

Compensating one hundred taels of silver to the injured person showed that the Ning family was not fussy and could save some reputation.

Shen Wan raised her eyebrows but did not refuse. They wanted to compensate Dongsheng one hundred taels of silver, so why not?

"Master Ning is really grand."

"Is he the master who has lifted people up? This Ning family only has the character of Master Ning and the Ning family."

"That's right, the Ning family was also defeated by Master Ning."

When the villagers in Chashan Village heard that the Ning family was going to pay Dongsheng one hundred taels of silver, they were all envious. It was a pity that they were not the ones guarding the tea mountain at night. If you get a stick, you can get one hundred taels of silver. What a deal!

The tea trees, flowers and trees, workshops, and the money to be compensated by the mountain guards were all taken care of. The Ning family thought that this should be the case. Not only did they think so, but the county magistrate and the people outside also thought so.

Ji Min frowned and said, "Are you just going to pay 1,300 taels of silver? You are really taking advantage of the Ning family."

Yun Luochuan smiled and said nothing. He looked at Shen Wan, who was standing tall and graceful like a lotus in the pond, and thought to herself: This is not over yet! Yi'er has only counted the small ones, and hasn't started counting the big ones yet!

"Okay." Shen Wan said with a smile, "Now it's time to calculate the direct economic losses caused to me by the burning of Tea Mountain."

Everyone's eyes widened, what else?

Under the gaze of everyone, Shen Wan said unhurriedly: "My tea mountain is planted with adult tea trees. Adult tea trees are picked in spring and autumn. Twenty kilograms of fresh tea leaves can be harvested in a year, and an average of five kilograms of tea can be made. For one kilogram of tea leaves, one tea tree can produce two kilograms of dry tea, and 30,000 tea trees can produce 60,000 kilograms of tea leaves a year."

When the Ning family heard this, they knew that the fussy Widow Shen wanted to settle tea accounts with them! The tea in Jiangzhou was cheap, and ordinary cooked tea would be collected by out-of-town merchants for ten cents a pound. Sixty thousand jins of tea may sound like a lot, but when calculated, it should only cost a few hundred taels of silver.

The master fiddled with the abacus for a long time, raised his head and answered Mr. Ji who was waiting for the answer: "It is indeed sixty thousand jins."
