I asked you to dig wild vegetables to pay off your debt, not go up the mountain to pick up money!

After he finished speaking, everyone started to get busy.

Song An Ning first went to her grandfather's field and picked peppers and eggplants with the boys.

Wang Qiuyue was counting duck eggs with the children.

Twelve cents per coin, she couldn't make a mistake, so she counted them very carefully.

Three horse-drawn carriages came to the village, and many villagers stopped working in the fields and ran over to watch the fun.

You can choose not to work or eat, but you cannot miss the fun. This is true no matter which world you are in.

Seeing the guys from Zuixianju carrying baskets of duck eggs onto the carriage, everyone started talking:

"They say it's some kind of preserved egg, but to me it looks just like the eggs my ducks lay."

"The color seems to be a little darker. I can't tell what it is. Since they accepted it, it means it is not an ordinary duck egg."

"..."

When the peppers and eggplants were carried out, everyone rushed forward.

"What the hell is this? I've never seen anything like it in my decades of life."

"Is this the chili pepper that Aning mentioned? And what's that purple one?"

"Is this edible? It doesn't look good to me..."

They frowned as they looked at the things being loaded into the car, and were very glad that they had not agreed to Song An Ning's proposal before.

After all, he is just a child, fooling around here. These things look like they cannot be eaten.

"When Aning first told me about it, I was tempted. He said it was 20 wen per jin, which was much more profitable than farming.

Later, my husband said that we had never seen that thing before, and if we couldn’t sell it after growing it, it would be a waste of our land.”

The crowd's chatter grew louder, especially when Song An Ning helped carry the things to the door, and there were a few people trying to persuade them.

"Aning, is this edible? There are so many people at Zuixianju, if it doesn't taste good, tell them as soon as possible. Don't wait for them to take it away before sending it back, that would be bad."

"Yeah, I know you're anxious to make money, but you can't lie. We can't afford to offend the people in this town."

"..."

Song An Ning looked up at the sky speechlessly. It was already this late, and he was still saying such nonsense.

Can't she use her brain and think about how big the restaurant is? Can she close the deal just by talking?

But now, she didn't have time to explain to these people because there were still so many peppers in the backyard that had not been picked.

The yield of peppers and eggplants was much higher than she had imagined. Xiangxiang said that these were the latest varieties bred in their world and they were very high-yielding.

Half an hour later, all the items were weighed, and Manager Zhao and Song An Ning began to settle the bill.

At this moment, the villagers who were watching the excitement saw him take out the abacus and took a few steps forward. Could this thing really be sold for money? Is it really worth twenty cents?

"Ning girl, your grandfather's preserved eggs are 1,250 pieces, which is exactly 15 taels of silver.

One hundred and fifty catties of peppers and two hundred and ten catties of eggplants, for a total of seven taels and two hundred wen.

Here are twenty-three taels of silver. You don't need to give me the extra change. The master said we've already gotten a great deal, so please round up the change."

After Song Anning took the silver, he thanked him and pushed the two ten-liang silver ingots and the silver coins in front of Song Dashan.

"..."

Song Dashan felt the silver in front of him was a little hot. Twenty-three taels? This was just the first batch, and he made twenty-three taels?

Oh my God, he never dared to dream of so much silver, and now it is his?

At the same time, the villagers were also excited when they saw the white silver.

"Did I hear correctly? More than twenty taels of silver, the Song family must have made a fortune."

"I heard right. The silver ingots are right on the table. There's no mistaking it. Is this thing really that profitable?"

"Yes, they really make money. I went to their backyard and planted only half an acre of land, and they were able to earn seven taels of silver!"

The villagers present finally believed that this thing could really make money after seeing the silver. And seeing the shopkeeper so happy, they thought that chili must be a good thing...

Their faces were filled with emotion. Seeing other families making money, it would be a lie to say they weren't envious. At the same time, they were filled with regret. Why hadn't they tried growing a few peppers when Aning had urged them to? Even just a tiny bit would have been helpful.

After Song Dashan collected the silver, Wang Qiuyue stayed at home with him to look after the house, while Song Anning took Manager Zhao to his second grandfather's house again.

My second grandfather has a large family, so the family has not stopped these days. The most vegetable seedlings were planted by my second grandfather's family at the beginning.

When the final accounts were settled, the profit from preserved eggs was more than 40 taels, and the peppers and eggplants combined made more than 10 taels.

The three horse-drawn carriages from Zuixianju were packed to the brim, so when they went to Song Nian's house, they could only hire two ox carts from the village.

Song Nian and Liu also pickled a lot of duck eggs, and in the end they earned more than 30 taels of silver.

Finally, it was Song Anning's family. She didn't pickle the first batch of preserved eggs, but only sold peppers and eggplants. Manager Zhao gave her a rounded amount of ten taels of silver.

After this, the villagers who were watching the fun were already numb. Silver, all silver...

Are their brains filled with shit? Why don't they just give it a try?

When coming out of the old house at the foot of the mountain, Song An Ning saw Uncle Daguang's family and Widow Song leading Hu Zi in the crowd.

"Sister Guizhi, are your peppers almost done? Zuixianju will come in a few days, and yours and Uncle Daguang's family will be able to make money too."

Widow Song nodded happily. She came here specially to see if Zuixianju would really buy chili peppers.

When I saw the silver, I felt completely relieved and just waited for Zuixianju to come to my door in a few days.

Seeing so many people around, Shopkeeper Zhao said to everyone very kindly:

"We'll take as many peppers and eggplants as you have, the more the better.

Aning, you should plant more. There are more than 70 Zuixianju restaurants. Once these truckloads of goods are distributed, they will be gone. The towns farther away won't get any at all.

The gap is too big.”

"Don't worry, Uncle Zhao. I bought a large piece of land and planted peppers and eggplants on it. I'll make a lot of money."

"Hahaha, then I'll wait."

When Song Anning said this, he was paying attention to the villagers' reactions.

After watching this lively scene and hearing what Song An Ning said, the anticipation and desire in everyone's eyes almost overflowed. If Shopkeeper Zhao hadn't been there, they would have surrounded Song An Ning and knelt down to beg for the chili seedlings!

After signing the eggplant contract in front of everyone, Manager Zhao prepared to go back.

When I went to Song Erhe's house just now, I had already agreed on the price of the land on the other side of the river. I just need to go to the government to pay the money and get the seal.

After the Song family sent the people from Zuixianju away, just as Song An Ning had expected, the villagers surrounded her.

"Aning, don't leave yet. Auntie has something to ask of you."

"Aning, my old hen said it's dying today. Would you like to come to my house and eat some chicken?"

"..."
