Chapter 97: The Price of Rice

As Lin Zhu guessed, Shopkeeper Du did come here for business, but she didn't expect that the white rice would be so important to him. After all, white rice is not as rare as watermelon. "In that case, I won't ask any more questions.

Lin Zhu couldn't ask more questions about other people's secrets, "I still have four hundred kilograms of this kind of white rice here. I originally wanted to sell it to restaurants. Since Muyue Trading Company wants it, let's sell it to you."

." Although Lin Zhu wants to make this special white rice famous, she doesn't have much white rice on hand right now. It's better to wait until next year's harvest comes before making plans. It's still very cost-effective to do a favor to Muyue Trading Company.

of.

"Mr. Du thanked Miss Lin on behalf of Manager Lu." Manager Du didn't expect to get so much. He had completed half of his mission this time and finally lived up to what Manager Lu had entrusted him to do. "Miss Lin,

How about selling this white rice for five taels of silver per catty?" Of course, Steward Du would not treat Lin Zhu badly in terms of price.

"Is the price too high?" Lin Zhu was a little confused.

"Not high, not high. Don't worry, Miss Lin. The boss has said that in the future, whenever Miss Lin Zhu comes out with something special, whether it's grain or something else, we, Mu Yue Trading Company, will pay a high price to buy it. In other words, if Miss Lin

We at Muyue Trading Company will accept whatever you want to sell, so don’t worry about the price, it will definitely satisfy you." Unexpectedly, Lin Zhu would ask such a question, shopkeeper Du was stunned for a moment, is this kid really sincere?

Taking retreat as a way to advance? But her expression didn't look like she was being hypocritical. Shopkeeper Du added, "Miss Lin, you can sell this white rice for one tael of silver per pound, which is high, but if it comes to our Mu Yue

The five taels of silver in the merchant's hands are also taken advantage of."

Logically speaking, Shopkeeper Du shouldn't have said this, and Lin Zhu was very grateful to him for being so frank, "I feel relieved after listening to Shopkeeper Du's words. It seems that Muyue Trading Company is very strong, and it shouldn't be difficult to deal with such a merchant."

I will suffer a loss. Thank you for your consideration. Next year I will plant 30 acres of special rice, and the harvest of 25 acres will be handed over to Mu Yue Trading Company. What do you think?" I will reciprocate the favor.

With Li, the cooperation between the two parties will be more pleasant.

"Thank you Miss Lin for your trust. I will definitely report this good news to the boss." Du Zhang smiled from ear to ear. This was really a big surprise.

"I haven't figured out how to arrange the others yet, but don't worry, Shopkeeper Du, I won't bother the two owners. The output from the fields will still be sold to your firm." Lin Zhu felt that after all, he had the relationship with Old Doctor Zhang.

Since Kizuki Trading Company left a good impression on her at the beginning and they were very sincere, what's the harm in continuing to cooperate with them?

"Thank you so much for Miss Lin's trust. She is such a happy person. Du doesn't say too many polite words here. I will set off back today and report to the boss. How about we come back to sign a contract with Miss Lin?"

"Okay." Lin Zhu nodded, after all, both parties need some guarantees.

Since the goal was achieved, Shopkeeper Du didn't stay much longer. After saying a few polite words, he stood up and said goodbye to Lin Zhu. He also agreed to go to Linjia Village in five days to pick up the 400 kilograms of special white rice. Lin Zhu originally wanted to ask him to give it to Mr. Zhang.

The doctor brought a hundred kilograms of white rice over, but then he thought that the other people in the Zhang family didn't seem to know that the old doctor Zhang recognized his step-granddaughter here. Since it was an official family, there must be strict rules, so it would be inappropriate to go up there rashly.

If it happened one after another, it would be bad if people thought that he was deliberately trying to get married. It would be better to wait for some time before talking about it.

After Shopkeeper Du left, Lin Zhu felt very tired and wanted to go back to the house to rest, but found that Chang Shi seemed to have something to say after seeing Shopkeeper Du away. "Uncle Chang Shi, is there anything else?" Lin Zhu stopped.

Step down and ask.

"Feng Yuanbo came to ask me today where the family of three will be accommodated. So I came to ask for permission from the girl." Chang Shi spoke very stiffly. This was actually because he had been with General Chang before. Although he was not a soldier, he was used to giving orders and prohibitions.

, the way he speaks has never changed. In the past, no one in Chang Mansion was picking on him, but now he is here with Lin Zhu. Although Lin Zhu was not very used to it at first, over time he found that Chang Shi has very strong mobility and can communicate with others.

The tasks given to him were completed quickly and well, so Lin Zhu didn't care about these small problems.

"Feng? Who is he?" Lin Zhu couldn't remember for a moment.

"Girl, this is the family with a five-year-old son. Isn't the wife of that family sick? You still need a doctor to help her see a doctor." Chang's mother reminded at the side.

"Oh, it's him," Lin Zhu patted his head and remembered, "He seemed to have said that he was literate, right? Did he pass the exam?" "He said that he had studied for a few years, and didn't say anything else. He wrote in Chinese.

Very good." Chang Shi replied.

"Can he keep accounts?" Lin Zhu sat on the chair and asked Chang Shi and Chang's mother to sit down too. "He bought him when he said he could read and keep accounts, but he had to buy his family together.

I won't sell it until the next time." Chang Shi said the reason for buying his family. "That's great, Uncle Chang Shi, then let him follow you. You are in charge of the affairs of the three Zhuangzi, just let him follow you.

His family members also live with you." Chang Shi and Chang Tianlei have been living in a house in the county town, while Lin Zhu and Chang's mother live in Linjia Village. Now Lin Zhu has arranged for Feng Yuanbo's family to live here as well.

Once the woman got well, she could help them with cooking, washing, and so on. As for the child, she didn't think of how to arrange him. Lin Zhu really didn't know what to do with such a young child laborer.

use.

"Okay." Chang Shi nodded in agreement but did not leave.

"Uncle Chang Shi, do you have anything else to say?"

"Girl, is what the people from Muyue Trading Company just said true? Can this white rice really be sold at this price?" Chang Shi couldn't believe it, although he knew that this rice was very delicious, and they had been eating this kind of rice these days.

White rice, and he ate a lot of it. If he had known it was worth so much, he wouldn't have enjoyed it so much. How much money did he owe Lin Zhu?

"Since he said it, it must be this price. Is there any problem?" Lin Zhu suddenly felt that Chang Shi's face looked a little strange after hearing what she said. "Then isn't this the kind of rice we eat these days?

"Chang Shi remembered that after the autumn harvest, Lin Zhu had brought it to them, and they had been eating it for a month or two. What if all the rice was converted into money? Chang Shi felt that he couldn't think about it anymore. If Chang Shi was in the past,

The General's Mansion spent no less than fifty taels on food on any given day. I didn't think there was anything wrong at the time. After all, the wealth of the Chang family was displayed there. And so were all the nobles in the capital.

But in this place, you can eat ten taels of silver in one day. This is really shocking. A country person can use ten taels of silver for a year, and even an ordinary family in the county can use it for two or three months. People who are so destitute can use it for a year.

To actually enjoy such treatment, a tough guy like Chang Shi was moved.

"Girl, aren't we wasting this rice too much?" Mother Chang also felt that something was wrong. "What's the waste? Mother Chang, did you throw it away before you finished eating?" Lin Zhu looked at her and asked. "How can you?

Well, the rice made from this rice is so delicious, why are we willing to throw it away? I mean..." Before Chang's mother could finish her words, Lin Zhu interrupted her, "Chang's mother, that's okay, isn't it?

As long as there is no waste." After Lin Zhu finished speaking, she walked out of the hall. She was really tired, "Mother Chang, I want to take a rest, and you can also go and see Tian Lei." So she turned around and left.

.

When I arrived at the room, I saw that Fu Dou'er had already fallen asleep. In order to prevent him from falling off the bed when he was crawling around, I specially made a smaller crib for him. It was blocked by railings so that he would not accidentally fall.

.

Lin Zhu changed into some comfortable clothes, also lay on the bed, and soon fell asleep.

Chang Shi stopped Chang's mother who wanted to chase Lin Zhu, and motioned her to go with him to see Chang Tianlei. "The young master's health is much better now." Chang Shi said in a muffled voice. Only now did he understand that it must be Lin Zhu.

Zhu had already known that this would happen, so he sent the rice to them. Now Chang Shi was very confused. He didn't know how to repay Lin Zhu's great kindness to the Chang family. Even if General Chang knew about it, he would still be grateful to Lin Zhu.

of.

"Thanks, girl." Chang's mother nodded and said softly. She didn't expect that things would be like this, "We can't repay this kindness. Let's do our best for her." Although Chang's mother was by Lin Zhu's side,

He has always tried his best to help her. But now that he thinks about it, Lin Zhu has not given them much in return. Moreover, they have benefited from her, settled down, and preserved the bloodline of General Chang.

"Let's find a chance to tell her the truth. We can't let her be confused. Then we will do whatever she says." After Chang Shi finished speaking, he took the lead and walked into Chang Tianlei's yard.

"Uncle Shi, why do you have time to come here?" Chang Tianlei was very happy to see them, "Look, all the injuries on my body are almost healed." He walked around the room a few times excitedly. "Mother Chang

, you see it too.”

"Well, not bad." Chang Shi showed a rare smile.

"Yes, it's almost good. Concubine Lan will definitely be very happy when she finds out." Chang's mother wiped her eyes. When she first saw Chang Tianlei, the injuries all over her body scared her soul.

The son is gone, and I am really afraid that he has some shortcomings. Now that he is almost recovering, he has finally let go. After all, he has lived up to Empress Lan Fei’s hard work.

"Master, we have something to discuss with you." He glanced at Chang's mother and nodded to her.

Ever since he arrived at this house, Chang Shi has been claiming that Chang Tianlei is his son, so he calls him by his name on weekdays, and he is used to it. Instead, he suddenly calls him respectfully, which is a bit awkward. "Uncle Shi, what's the matter?"

You said." He looked at Chang's mother again, she had a somewhat embarrassed look on her face, and Chang Tianlei's heart suddenly sank.

Thanks to taemiki for the peace charm. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
