The pretty widow is addicted to money, and the little wolfdog asks for a hug

The other young men were also dressed as wealthy young men, kneeling around a pottery jar and shouting loudly.

The front of the brocade was pressed under the knees, rubbing against the ground, covered with dust and wrinkled, but they didn't seem to feel the slightest bit of pain.

If her younger brother saw this, he would definitely call her a prodigal.

Her younger brother would rather wear out his knees than wear out his clothes.

In the end, the boy in red won. He held a fat cricket close to his mouth and gave it a kiss: "My dear son, good job. Today, Dad will reward you with a good meal!"

The blue-robed boy who lost was so angry that he threw the cricket to the ground and crushed it to pieces. "Useless thing! I paid a high price to buy you!"

When he turned around and saw Gu Qinghuai looking at them, he rushed forward angrily and kicked the bamboo basket on the ground, "You bitch! What are you looking at!"

The bamboo basket was kicked several meters away.

Gu Qinghuai gritted his teeth and was about to clench his fists when he saw the red-clothed boy rush forward and kick the blue-robed boy in the butt: "Wang Zhuo, what kind of man are you? You go and bully a woman when you lose?"

The young man in blue robe covered his butt and said with a smile: "Brother Mingzong, I didn't...no, I just kicked the bamboo basket."

"Hmph, since you can't afford to play, don't play with me in the future. Get lost!" The young man in red opened his folding fan and kicked the young man in blue again.

The young man in blue robe smiled and flattered, "No, no, Brother Mingzong, can't I apologize to this lady?"

Gu Qinghuai:!!!

You are the auntie, your whole family is aunties!

The young man in blue robe looked to be nearly twenty years old, older than her, yet he dared to call her auntie!

Damn it!

"Auntie, I'm sorry. I lost the game and was anxious at the moment. I'm really sorry." Wang Zhuo picked up the bamboo basket and put it away, then turned to Gu Qinghuai and bowed hastily.

Gu Qinghuai: ...

Forget it. We have important business to discuss later. If we get into a fight and mess up our clothes and hair, it won’t be worth it.

Who made her wear her hair in a woman's bun, wear coarse linen clothes, and have dark and rough skin?

No one else is to blame.

However, she saw a business opportunity.

Just think of it as finding a side job for Wubing and Wuzao to make money.

Gu Qinghuai stood up, straightened his back, raised his chin slightly, and said coldly to the blue-robed boy: "Your name is Wang Zhuo, right? How old are you this year?"

"Nineteen," Wang Zhuo answered stiffly. If Shu Mingzong hadn't been there, he wouldn't have bothered to bother with this country aunt.

Gu Qinghuai snorted coldly: "I'm seventeen."

Upon hearing this, everyone at the scene was stunned and began to look at Gu Qinghuai seriously.

The woman was indeed very young, but perhaps because she was dressed old-fashioned and had dark skin, they misjudged her.

Gu Qinghuai's almond-shaped eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Wang Zhuo, you shouldn't call me auntie. It's very offensive to me when you do that! However, if you can make a deal with me, I will forgive you."

"What deal?" Wang Zhuo's scalp tightened.

Could it be that this woman has a crush on him?

As a young master from a wealthy family, he had been pounced upon by all kinds of women, including a sixty-year-old lady.

Gu Qinghuai raised his voice: "I can find a big and strong cricket, do you want it?"

"Yes!" The young man in red was the first to answer, his eyes sparkling with stars.

Wang Zhuo and others were also very excited and said they wanted it.

"How much are you giving for one?" Gu Qinghuai asked.

The young man in red said: "If it's good enough, I'll give it one or two taels of silver."

"Okay, then it's settled. After I get the good stuff, where should I find you?" Gu Qinghuai asked.

Wang Zhuo was about to answer, but the young man in red spoke first: "My name is Shu Mingzong. You can find me at the Shu Mansion behind the county government office. Just tell the doorman that you are looking for my servant to sweep the flowers."

Last name Shu?

The surname Shu is not common.

The county magistrate of Qinghe County is surnamed Shu. Could it be that the Shu Mansion is the home of the county magistrate Shu?

I heard that the eldest son of Shu County Magistrate is an uneducated, dissolute and unscrupulous person. Could it be him?

Moreover, Uncle He said that his friend was also a playboy. On the day of applying for household registration, it was that playboy who went to the county government office and made a scene, which ultimately led to the household registration being approved. I don't know if it was him.

After all, how many playboys in the entire Qinghe County dare to cause trouble in the county government?

Although this boy is a playboy, he is actually kind-hearted.

Gu Qinghuai smiled and said, "Okay, Master Shu, it's a deal then."

Shu Mingzong glanced at Gu Qinghuai indifferently, nodded, then walked away, fanning himself, as if he didn't care about his relatives.

As soon as the playboys left, Xiao Shitou returned.

He handed two silver bills, a sales receipt, and more than twenty taels of silver to Gu Qinghuai, "Sister Xiaohuai, the ginseng was sold for one hundred and fifty taels."

"So many!" Gu Qinghuai was slightly surprised. She originally thought that it would be very good to sell it for one hundred taels.

After deducting the money spent on buying things, there were still 79 taels of silver left in her space. Adding the 150 taels, she had 229 taels of silver, which was enough to support her for a while.

"Xiao Shitou, I didn't realize you are such a sales talent, that's amazing," Gu Qinghuai said with approval in his eyes and gave him a thumbs up.

Even if she were to sell the ginseng herself, she wouldn't be able to sell it for less than 150 taels.

Qi Yuanshuo blushed at the compliment: "No...nothing, it's just a small matter."

He just told the owner of the drugstore that some families in the capital loved ginseng very much, especially the hundred-year-old one.

If the shopkeeper takes it to the imperial capital, a hundred-year-old ginseng can be sold for at least five hundred taels of silver.

Gu Qinghuai looked at the small stone and suddenly an idea came to him.

After all, Xiao Shitou is a native of Daxia and may even be the son of a noble family. He may know the prices of bath products in the imperial capital better than she does.

Gu Qinghuai raised his head, narrowed his eyes and asked, "Xiao Shitou, what do you think is a more appropriate wholesale price for our soap? I'd like to hear your advice."

Qi Yuanshuo had never heard of the word "wholesale" before, but he could figure it out on his own.

Wholesale, selling goods in batches, the quantity must be huge and the price will be relatively low.

Qi Yuanshuo thought for a moment and said, "Sister Xiao Huai, what price did you originally want to set?"

Gu Qinghuai sighed, "Originally, I made low-priced soap because I hoped that ordinary people in Daxia could afford it, so I wanted to set the wholesale price of low-priced soap at 40 coins per piece, but then I thought, this is not right. Because wholesalers may raise the price of soap to 100 coins, or even 200 coins.

Even if we sign a contract, we cannot bind them. Unless we open our own shop to sell soap, we can roughly stabilize the price of soap."

Qi Yuanshuo nodded. "Forty cents a piece is indeed too low. Wholesalers can definitely sell low-priced soap at the peak price. I think we can make a little more money before we open our own store. Sixty cents a piece."

"Okay, then it will be sixty cents. Once we open our own store and can stabilize the price, we will readjust it," said Gu Qinghuai.

After the two of them discussed it, they went straight to Muxiang Pavilion.
