Ancient paintings connect the present, I hoard goods to support the villain Wang

Yan Ran's words are self-evident.

Shi Xi concluded that she must know someone who grows cotton!

"Well, if you can get it, do your best to get it. We need the amount needed for 200,000 people."

When Shi Xi bought things for Xiao Jingyan, she simply bought according to the needs of 200,000 people.

Xiao Jingyan had mentioned to her before that he sold the things she gave him to the former young prince at a high price. She thought this was a business opportunity and that she could make more money through the difference.

"If we assume each person needs one pound of cotton, the total demand for 200,000 people would be 200,000 pounds."

“It’s a bit much…”

Yan Ran suddenly regretted getting cotton for Shi Xi.

"difficult?"

Shi Xi raised an eyebrow and looked at her and asked.

Yan Ran sighed and shook his head helplessly.

Once you make a promise, you must fulfill it even if you cry.

"I'll try to get it for you, but I have to get the coal, so the cotton will have to come after the coal."

Shi Xi nodded in agreement. "The cotton can be delivered later. I don't know if they have the fabric over there. I still need to find a garment factory and customize a batch of comfortable fabric for them."

Since we want to make more cotton-padded clothes, having cotton without fabric is not enough.

"Okay, then I'll have them deliver the goods when you need them."

Yan Ran agreed.

Seeing that Shi Xi had already transferred all the coal in the warehouse into the ancient painting, Yan Ran remembered the few baskets of peaches that he had someone pick this morning.

"It's the middle of summer now, and the peaches are ripe."

"This morning, while you were away, I hired some farmhands to help me pick a few baskets of ripe peaches."

"How about you send these peaches to your prince as well?"

"There are too many of them, and we can't eat them all."

Yan Ran looked at Shi Xi with a wicked smile on her face. She had a wrong feeling that Shi Xi seemed to be in love recently, but she was not sure who Shi Xi was in love with.

"This……"

Hearing Yan Ran mention peaches, Shi Xi thought of the family of three selling peaches at the foot of the mountain.

"How many peaches do you have? At least one should be available for each of Xiao Jingyan and the others to have."

She knew that Yan Ran didn't have enough peaches.

Yan Ran was also a little embarrassed and said bluntly:

"Well, you can send it to them first. If it's not enough, I'll ask someone to pick more tomorrow, or go out and buy some."

Shi Xi frowned slightly: "Where is Taozi? Why don't I go check it out first."

As the two best friends walked out of the warehouse, Shi Xi looked up at the dark clouds in the sky and felt that it was about to rain. They had to hurry because she didn't bring an umbrella.

The peaches in the manor are piled up in the peach orchard where the peach trees are planted.

From a distance, Yan Ran roughly counted and found that there were more than two hundred baskets.

There are a hundred in each basket, which is more than 20,000.

It seems like a lot, but in fact it is far from enough for Xiao’s army to eat.

"Xiao Ran, wait for me, I'm going down the mountain."

Since we are sending peaches to Xiao Jingyan and the others, we must ensure that every soldier gets one.

It's getting late now and it's about to rain. I wonder if the family of three is still selling goods at the foot of the mountain.

However, Shi Xi still wanted to try his luck.

Firstly, it was to send peaches to Xiao Jingyan; secondly, she felt that she could also help the poor family of three.

She got in her car, left the Yan family manor, and headed towards the foot of the mountain.

As we walked along the road, the sky began to flash with lightning and thunder, like a symphony about to begin.

When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, Shi Xi breathed a sigh of relief. The agricultural four-wheel drive vehicle loaded with peaches was still there.

Shi Xi parked the car aside and walked over to negotiate the price with them.

"Old lady, it's already this late and it's going to rain soon. No one is going to come buy peaches. Let's go home!"

"My son's wound cannot be exposed to rain."

The old man in the family of three asked his wife tentatively.

The old man, who was over sixty years old, had a worried look on his face that wrinkled his features together, and his entire face was full of wrinkles.

"Hey, we've been here all day and haven't even sold a hundred yuan worth of items. If this continues, when will we be able to raise enough money to buy a prosthetic limb for our son?"

The old woman looked less than sixty years old, but she had a head of gray hair, and her vicissitudes of life made people sigh.

"If not, you stay home and take care of your son tomorrow, and I'll drive to the city to sell it by myself."

The old man said helplessly.

“If we go to the city to sell, we can’t even afford the stall fees.”

"If we don't pay the expensive stall fees, the urban management officers will keep making trouble and we won't be able to sell anything."

The old woman sighed and said.

The old man had no choice but to sigh.

Before Shi Xi got close, she heard their complaints about their difficult lives.

"Uncle, Madam, how much are these peaches?"

Hearing the girl asking the price, the two elders looked up hurriedly, and when they saw Shi Xi coming to buy peaches, they were as if they had seen an angel.

"Girl, do you want to buy...buy some peaches?"

The old woman excitedly brought Shi Xi a plastic bag.

There were not many people buying goods today, and the only few sales were made during the day.

It's already past nine o'clock in the evening, and they haven't made a single order the whole night.

"Well, just take a quick look."

Shi Xi responded.

"These peaches were picked before dawn today. They're still fresh. Five yuan a pound."

The old woman said this, smiling and stretching out a rootless finger.

Shi Xi didn't reply, but looked at Taozi in the car with the dim light of her cell phone's flashlight.

When the old man saw Shi Xi didn't say anything, he thought his wife had sold it too expensively.

"Girl, no matter how much you ask for, if you can buy it, I'll give you three kilograms for ten yuan."

Hearing the old man's words, the old woman also hurriedly responded:

"Yes, three pounds for ten yuan."

They also know that peaches are no longer fresh if they are picked a day ago.

When Shi Xi heard the price, she was already tempted.

Xinghai City is a first-tier city, so with these prices, they can honestly say they are making a profit.

"How many kilograms does your cart weigh?"

Shi Xi asked casually.

The family of three didn't understand what Shi Xi meant, but the old man still answered honestly:

"We haven't calculated it carefully, but it should be at least 180 kilograms."

Eight hundred and ten pounds is still conservative. Shi Xi believes that it can be at least three times that.

"Calculate how many there are in total. I want them all."

Shi Xi said lightly without blinking.

When these words were spoken, the family of three were stunned.

They suspected that they had heard it wrong, and were afraid that the girl in front of them was deliberately joking and making fun of them.

"If it's inconvenient for you, you can follow my car to the manor and let our people help you calculate it."

Shi Xi said this, pointing to her car parked not far away.

After hearing the word "manor", the family of three was even more surprised.

The villagers living nearby all know that there is a luxurious manor on the mountain, which is the private residence of a wealthy boss in the city.

There are often people coming to the manor, and each of them drives a luxury car that they have only seen on TV or on TikTok.

Listening to the tone of the little girl in front of them and looking at the clothes she was wearing, the family of three was sure that the manor the little girl was talking about was the one they knew.

"Okay, okay, we'll follow you up."

The disabled man reacted faster.

Although he is physically disabled, his brain is definitely faster than those of the two elderly people.
