My parents are both dead, I rely on fishing and farming to support my younger siblings

The brother and sister looked at each other again, and the corners of their mouths rose slightly.

It seems that this matter is likely to be successful!

Shopkeeper Han felt that the maltose made by the brother and sister was indeed top quality, but he could not make the decision himself.

I am just the shopkeeper of a branch of the Han family. I need to consult the head of the Han family before making a decision.

"Little brother, I think your candy is quite good, but I can't cook it. Can I buy a pound of it first and let our master try it before making a decision?" Shopkeeper Han said with a smile.

The Han family's business was spread all over the Nanyue Kingdom. Gu Lili did not realize at this time that a huge fortune was right in front of her.

When Gu Erniu heard this, he quickly looked at Gu Lili again.

Gu Lili thought for a moment and said, "That's fine. I'll sell you one kilogram first. I'll go ask other stores for the rest. I'll come back next time and ask for your decision!"

Shopkeeper Han felt a little reluctant to see such good candy about to be sold to his rival.

However, since he had no say in the matter, he just nodded and agreed.

Gu Lili and her brother still asked for one hundred coins per catty. Manager Han did not bargain and paid the money readily.

After the payment was made, Gu Lili took Gu Erniu to continue selling their candy.

As soon as the brother and sister went out, Han Mingyue came out from behind the curtain.

In fact, he arrived a little later than Gu Lili and the others. He came in through the back door, so Gu Lili didn't notice him.

The Han Company was originally his family's business. Recently, he was sent here by his father to study with Master Yuan.

He had only been in Mingyue Town for a few days. Today, when he was out for a stroll, he was targeted by a thief, which led to the incident.

The reason why he didn't come out just now was that he was afraid that Gu Lili would beat him up again.

It was the first time he met such a fierce girl.

"Uncle Han, what did you buy? Let me see it!" Han Mingyue said.

Shopkeeper Han handed the candy to Han Mingyue with a smile. The reason why he didn't ask Han Mingyue just now was because of Han Mingyue, because Han Mingyue didn't care about his family's business at all.

He only wants to read books of sages, which is not like the head of the family at all.

However, the head of the Han family did not force Han Mingyue, after all, the Han family had three sons.

Therefore, Han Mingyue was allowed to study hard and was not forced to manage the family business.

Han Mingyue put the candy into her mouth. It was really delicious.

"Uncle Han, go quickly, chase the person back, and sell all the candies. If we sell them all to our rivals, it will be difficult to sell our candies!" Han Mingyue said anxiously.

In fact, the deliciousness of the candy is secondary. The most important thing is that Han Mingyue wants to repay Gu Lili's kindness.

Shopkeeper Han looked at Han Mingyue in some confusion. He didn't know when this ancestor became interested in doing business.

However, he did not ask, but just ran after him.

Although Han Mingyue doesn't care about the Han family's business, it doesn't mean he can't manage it.

Gu Lili and her brother had only taken a few steps when they were stopped by a voice from behind.

"Little brother, wait, wait!" Shopkeeper Han shouted breathlessly.

The brother and sister turned around and looked at Manager Han curiously.

I wonder if Manager Han suddenly called me and changed his mind again?

Shopkeeper Han took a few breaths and said, "I want all this candy!"

When Gu Erniu heard that Manager Han suddenly changed his mind, he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

Although Gu Lili was curious about why Manager Han suddenly changed his mind, it was a good thing that the candy was sold.

The brother and sister followed Manager Han back to Han's Trading Company. Han Mingyue saw them coming back from afar and was so scared that she immediately jumped behind the curtain again.

When Manager Han entered the room and did not see Han Mingyue, he shook his head and said nothing.

There was a total of 48 kilograms of sugar left, originally about 70 kilograms in total. Gu Lili kept some for her family to eat.

Shopkeeper Han smiled and gave Gu Lili four taels and eight hundred wen. Gu Lili was not polite and kept the money with a smile.

The reason why Shopkeeper Han didn't bargain was because the Han family had shops everywhere.

The price of food is rising, but it's not just in this area.

Instead, the temperature in the entire Nanyue Kingdom began to rise. The freezing rain in the past few days caused disasters in almost all of the northern part of the country.

Food production is almost certain to decline, so the current price increase is just the beginning.

I'm afraid it will become even more outrageous after some time.

"Thank you very much, Manager Han. I wish you a prosperous business." Gu Lili said with a smile.

Shopkeeper Han also nodded repeatedly, "Where do you live? If we need this candy, we can go get it ourselves in the future!"

After all, with so many shops, if needed, the number would not be small.

When Gu Erniu heard this, he clenched his hands unconsciously again.

Gu Lili smiled and patted Gu Erniu on the shoulder, and told Manager Han her home address.

The brother and sister chatted with Manager Han for a while and then left Han’s Business.

As soon as Han Mingyue saw that the person had left, she came out again immediately.

"Uncle Han, my eldest brother is checking accounts in Jiangbei Prefecture these days. Aniu and I will drive to Jiangbei Prefecture in a while and give this candy to my eldest brother to taste!" Han Mingyue said.

Han Mingyue thought that buying candy from Gu Lili's family was a trivial matter, but he didn't know that if this was accomplished, Gu Lili would make a fortune.

However, the wealth in Gu Lili's eyes is just a drop in the bucket in Han Mingyue's eyes.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the Han family is as wealthy as a country.

The Han family's business is not limited to this trading company, it involves multiple industries.

For example, teahouses, taverns, silver shops, brothels and so on.

Shopkeeper Han looked at Han Mingyue as if he had seen a ghost. This was a bit too proactive.

Could it be that...

No, no, Gu Lili’s face appeared in Shopkeeper Han’s mind.

With that pale and skinny face, like a man, Han Mingyue shouldn't be...

Shopkeeper Han shook his head and didn't want to continue guessing.

Han Mingyue also explained and asked Manager Han to give her half of the candy. Then she went to the backyard to find Aniu, and the two of them hurried to Jiangbei Prefecture.

Gu Lili and her brother came out of the Korean store and since it was not too late, they decided to go for a walk.

Because Gu Lili wanted to "buy" food, she had to send Gu Erniu away.

"Erniu, take the money and walk around over there to see if there are any business opportunities! Just think of it as some exercise!" Gu Lili smiled and handed the banknote in her hand to Gu Erniu.

Gu Erniu had no doubts and walked in the direction Gu Lili pointed with the money.

The two agreed to meet at Sizhudie's ox cart later.

Gu Lili turned around and started walking around by herself.
