Chapter 507

As he spoke, he yelled at the bullock cart and wanted to leave.

Seeing that they were about to leave, the butler hurried after them and stopped them again.

Smiling, he said to Wang Sanlang: "Brother, you can't calculate the bill like this. Although the south is far away, but you have so many baskets of green vegetables this time, and there are more than 80 taels of silver in four baskets. It is definitely not a loss."

Si Zhengping didn't agree: "It doesn't cost money for our master to buy land in the south? We don't need money to transport vegetables? It's so cheap, you can tell!"

The housekeeper who said these words was speechless.

Wang Sanlang hurriedly said in a timely manner: "Brother, it's not that we don't want to sell you. How can we explain to the master at your price? We are just people who deliver vegetables, and it stands to reason that we can't sell them casually. If the price is not in place , we still have to lose our job?"

The butler was very embarrassed when he heard this, thought for a while and said: "Why don't you follow me to our Yuanwai's house, I need to ask my master's house for instructions."

As soon as Wang Sanlang heard that there was something interesting, he immediately pretended to say good things for the housekeeper: "Uncle, why don't we just take a trip, this vegetable is not sold anywhere, and the green vegetables are not as durable as other vegetables, and it is troublesome if they are frozen halfway." , might as well sell it here."

Si Zhengping pretended to be distressed when he heard the words, but the other three clan elders nodded: "We'll go there once."

Si Zhengping had no choice but to agree: "That's fine, please trouble this brother to lead the way."

Seeing that he finally agreed, the butler hurriedly took a few people to Xu Yuanwai's house.

Xu Yuanwai is one of the best big families in Yang County, he is a Juren, and his family is quite famous in Yang County.

His house is on the main street of the county. From here, pass the county government office, go straight for 500 meters, turn east, and then walk 20 meters to the small gate in the backyard of Xu's house.

The butler asked a few people to wait at the back door for a while, then walked in quickly to report the situation.

It happened that Xu Yuanwai brought his son to persuade his old mother to eat.

Mrs. Xu is seventy-one this year. The old man has poor digestion. In addition, the winter is dry, the charcoal fire is hot, and the food is meaty. The heat builds up in her body, and she has not been in the latrine for many days.

I can't get into the hut, and naturally I can't eat anything.

I called the doctor, but the doctor could only prescribe a prescription to clear the fire. He suggested that the old lady should eat a light diet, and it is best to eat more fresh vegetables.

This made Mr. Xu very worried. It's winter, where are the green vegetables so good to buy?

Even if he has arranged for people to start building a greenhouse, it is not immediately possible to eat green vegetables.

The old lady couldn't eat every meal now, and it was only because Xu Yuanwai and his son sat in front of her and coaxed her earnestly that she could manage to eat a bite or two.

Xu Yuanwai is currently holding a rice bowl to feed his old lady porridge.

At this moment, the butler rushed in and said excitedly, "Master, I found Qingcai!"

When Member Xu heard this, the bowl in his hand almost fell to the ground in excitement, and he hurriedly turned his head and asked, "Why don't you take it to the kitchen and ask the cook to bring you a plate of fried vegetables?"

The housekeeper hesitated for a while, and said awkwardly: "Master, I found it, but the price is a bit expensive, and I haven't paid the silver yet."

"Expensive? You have to buy it no matter how expensive it is. Didn't you see that the old lady can't eat? Hurry up and buy all those dishes for me!"

Xu Yuanwai waved his hand majesticly, and told the housekeeper to go to the cashier to get the money, just buy it.

The butler took 200 taels of silver and trotted to the back door, carefully inspecting the dishes inside.

Looking at the watery vegetables, the smile on his face couldn't stop.

However, when he opened the quotation, he played tricks and said: "Our master is willing to bid eight taels of silver for a basket, and buy all your vegetables."
