Chapter 120
Shen Jintang also smiled helplessly: "Yanyan, this is not something else, it is useless to buy too much."

Moreover, her purpose is not to make money, but to increase the production of all grains in Yichang County, and for Shen Mu's political achievements.

Otherwise, the medicine powder of ten cents per mu of land would not be enough for her to lose money.

Hearing this, Zhang Yanyan hesitated for a moment and continued, "Then ask for 500 taels of silver first?"

Master Dong was listening and couldn't help wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

Why did he feel that this girl Zhang was here to make trouble?

Shen Jintang smiled when she heard the words, looked at her and said, "Yanyan, as many fields as there are in your family, you need as many packs of medicine powder as you need, and it's useless to ask for too much."

Zhang Yanyan paused after hearing the words: "I really don't know how many fields my family has."

Tian Xiuyao raised her forehead and was speechless: "When you asked your father for money, didn't you ask him how many fields your family has?"

Zhang Yanyan shook her head, she snatched her father's purse and ran away, there was no time to ask.

"It's okay, I'll ask my servants to go back and ask now." Zhang Yanyan told the servant who followed: "Go back quickly and ask my father how many fields our family has in total."

As soon as the voice fell, the servant responded, and was about to go when he saw the butler of the Zhang residence coming.

"Girl, the master asked me to ask you to ask for ten taels of silver medicine powder first."

Although there are many fields in the family, the effect of this medicine powder is unknown, and they can throw away so much money for nothing.

Zhang Yanyan immediately frowned dissatisfied when she heard this: "How much can you buy with ten taels of silver? No matter what, you have to ask for 100 taels of silver."

After finishing the words, she directly made a decision: "It will cost 100 taels of silver. Jintang, please bring us the powder."

Hearing this, Shen Jintang had no choice but to accept the 100 taels of silver, and then asked Bai Zhi and Qing Dai to pack the medicine powder.

The servants brought by Zhang Yanyan came with carts.

He directly lifted the powder onto the cart and pulled it away.

Seeing this, Tian Xiuyao also said at the side: "Jintang, my Zhuangzi is small, so I need 50 taels of medicine powder."

Hua Luo directly handed the bank note to Shen Jintang.

Shen Jintang took the bank note and gestured slightly to Bai Zhiqingdai.

The servants of the two families took the medicine powder away, while Tian Xiuyao and Zhang Yanyan stayed behind.

The name said it was to help Shen Jintang.

Master Dong looked at the shop where no one was patronizing, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, does this look a bit like he needs help?

But he just thought about these words in his heart, so naturally he wouldn't say them out of nowhere.

Seeing that Zhang Yanyan and Tian Xiuyao had bought so much, the onlookers couldn't help but feel a little moved.

But in the end, I decided to wait and see and didn't buy it.

In the next few days, some sporadic people went to buy.

Most of them are victims of locust plagues.

They know better about the horror of locust plagues, so they would rather spend tens of pennies more to buy it and try it.

The weather has warmed up, and the grass buds on the ground have also shown their heads.

Those who didn't buy insecticide powder started to have pests in the ground.

The old woman looked at the green wheat field, couldn't help laughing happily, and said to the person next to the field: "Don't tell me, this insecticide powder really works. Look at my wheat field, there is a green insect Never saw a shadow."

Hearing this, the person looked at the wheat in his home, and found that many of the wheat leaves had been gnawed by bugs.

He took another look at the wheat field of the old woman's house. It really grew well and flourished without any bugs.

I couldn't help but said to my daughter-in-law: "Daughter-in-law, this insecticide powder seems to be really effective, why don't we buy it and try it?"

His daughter-in-law also saw the situation of his own wheat field and the old woman's wheat field, and nodded quickly after hearing this: "Let's go buy it now."

The two left the field in a hurry and ran to the agricultural medicine shop of the county government.

At this time, many people in the agricultural medicine shop have seen the effect of using insecticide powder on other people's fields.

So they all ran to buy them.

Master Dong also knew that the insecticide powder was indeed effective.

Seeing so many people scrambling to buy it, I was so happy from ear to ear.

Bai Zhi and Qing Dai are already too busy.

Master Dong recruited a few yamen servants who could settle accounts to help, and asked other yamen servants to help maintain order.

The fact that the insecticide powder did work was widely spread in Yichang County.

The gentry and nobles in Yichang County are so regretful that their intestines are green.

Quickly send someone to buy.

But when Shen Jintang spoke, he had to keep an eye on the common people first, and when they had bought enough, he was talking about other people.

Those country gentry and nobles had to wait patiently.

But after waiting for two or three days, the agricultural medicine shop was still overcrowded.

So they began to think of ways to make connections.

Someone even found out that Zhang Yanyan and Shen Jintang had a good relationship and wanted her to buy it instead.

Zhang Yongnian did not expect that the effect of the insecticide powder was so good. After using it, not only did the crops no longer have pests, but they also grew green and shiny. At first glance, it was very gratifying.

He couldn't help complaining to his daughter: "Silly Yanyan, this insecticide powder is so effective, why didn't you buy more? Our family's village has a total of [-] mu of land."

You have to ask for at least 500 taels.

Zhang Yanyan couldn't help giving her father a blank look when she heard the words: "Father, have you forgotten that when I asked for 100 taels on my own initiative, you still blamed me."

Hearing this, Zhang Yongnian scratched his head and laughed mockingly: "Didn't you know that the effect is really so good? Now that Dad knows it's wrong, you can buy another few hundred taels of silver, okay? After all, that Miss Shen has such a good relationship with you."

Zhang Yanyan shook her head, and rejected her father very coldly: "Jintang said, we must be careful with the common people first, and I will buy it from her, won't that embarrass her?"

Zhang Yongnian smiled helplessly: "You child, you are quite considerate of her."

There are many people in Yichang County, and there is only one agricultural medicine shop.

I was busy from morning to night all day, and it took more than half a month to sell, and the number of common people came to buy less.

Those country gentry and nobles were finally in their place, and they couldn't help being moved to tears.

They waited for half a month, it was not easy.

However, when they went to buy, they were planning to buy more and store them up, or sell them at a high price, but they were told that the stock was limited and the quantity was limited.

Each family only sells 50 taels of silver, and nothing more.

None of these country gentry and nobles have tens of thousands of acres of land and a few villages.

How much can 50 taels of silver buy?

But Miss Shen said that the stock was running out, and they had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​reselling it at a high price.

But for Zhang Yanyan and Tian Xiuyao, Shen Jintang asked them how much land they had left without being sprayed with insecticide powder, and then sold them to make up for it.
