The days before and after the Dragon Boat Festival are the hottest, so the inn has prepared cold drinks.

Yesterday, Qin Yao promised Si Niang to buy them delicious food as a reward, but she was late closing the stall, and other stalls also closed the stall, so she couldn't buy it.

It's only mid-afternoon, it's still early, and the cold drinks in the inn have just been put up with signs. Looking at the faces of the four Dalang brothers and sisters that were red from the sun, Qin Yao ordered five bowls of ice drinks. The mother and son were sitting on the empty table in the lobby. Sat down.

A bowl of iced mung bean paste costs [-] yuan a bowl. When the waiter reported the bill, the four siblings, who already knew how to recognize money and settle accounts, almost stared out of their eyes.

It's just a bowl of mung bean soup, and it costs [-] cents just because it has cotton shaved ice added?

Qin Yao waved her hand calmly, "Eat."

Then he took out a piece of silver and handed it to the waiter for change.

After eating two spoons of mung bean paste, Qin Yao remembered that Liu Ji was still in the room. She hesitated for a few seconds and asked the waiter to send him a bowl.

Liu Ji, who was reading in the room, was simply flattered. Eating the cold mung bean paste, he was so moved that she still had him in her heart!
Seeing that the whole family had it, and the stepmother enjoyed it so much, the four brothers and sisters put aside their inner barriers and happily tasted the mung bean paste with ice.

The four brothers and sisters ate the rustling shaved ice for the first time, and were surprised to find that it had no taste at all like the ice cubes picked from the eaves in winter.

This shaved ice melts in your mouth, is sweet and icy, and has the aroma of tea.

Sanlang drank it too hard in one gulp and made himself breathless from the cold, but the mung bean paste was so delicious that he couldn't bear to spit it out.

But the ice melted quickly, and what was left was the sweet taste of mung beans.

After taking this sip in the scorching heat, all the sweat on his body receded. The little guy squinted his eyes comfortably and swung his legs happily off the ground while sitting on the high stool.

"Is it delicious?" Qin Yao asked with a smile.

The four siblings nodded wildly, it was delicious!

"It's just a bit expensive." Erlang still felt pain.

Qin Yao rubbed his head and said, "Enjoy your time and don't think too much."

There are so many unpredictable things in the future. Who knows if the price of a bowl of mung bean paste will skyrocket tomorrow?
Then they will make money by eating today.

Erlang tried his best to smile at his mother-in-law, trying to reassure himself that he wasn't hurting, but he even licked the last drop of mung bean paste off the bowl.

Not to mention, the waiter at the same store asked for a free pot of water, poured it into a bowl, drank up every last bit of the taste, and felt that the eighty cents were not wasted.

Qin Yao just looked at it gently and did not stop him for the so-called face and other people's surprised looks.

Once raw, twice cooked, if you eat it a few times, you will feel that it is nothing.

The four siblings went out today with only two magical book boxes, which belonged to Erlang and Siniang. One was the latest model, and the other was full of childish graffiti, which was enough for publicity.

After finishing the iced drink, Qin Yao noticed the eager glances around her and asked Dalang to take her younger brothers and sisters back to their rooms to complete their afternoon homework. She wanted to stay in the lobby for a while.

The elder man understood and led his brothers and sisters back to the guest room first, leaving two book boxes untaken.

The valuable textbooks are all in the guest room, and only pens, ink, paper and inkstones are placed in the bookcase, so leaving them behind will not affect their homework.

After all, it is a letter-writing service, and it would be too fake if someone cannot take out pen and paper when they want to write a letter.

As soon as the four Dalang brothers and sisters left, someone in the lobby immediately stood up and walked towards Qin Yao.The two parties met each other, and the other party looked her up and down first, and then tentatively asked: "Aren't you afraid of damaging your reputation when you go out to do business?"

Qin Yao raised her hand and made a gesture to sit down, and replied with a smile: "There is no law in the Sheng Kingdom that says women cannot do business, right?"

"That's true." The visitor smiled and sat down. Two magical book boxes stood next to him. He glanced at Qin Yao and saw that she had no intention of stopping him, so he started to touch them.

There were still a few glances left, and they looked over immediately, but because someone had already sat down in front of Qin Yao, and in accordance with the first-come, first-served rule on the road, no action was taken.

Qin Yao took the initiative to explain the structure and use of the Shenli Book Box, parts that could be used freely.

He also added: “The style of this book box is the flagship model, but our factory also produces luggage, which is also a portable box with rollers and straps, but it is slightly larger than the book box, and there is not so much space inside. You can spread it out on both sides. Place travel clothes and other items to protect against rain and sun, making it easy to carry.”

By the way, let me introduce the pencil case again.

After saying that, the waiter brought the tea and snacks, and then Qin Yao asked the other party's name.

"A certain person's surname is Jiang. His name is only one character. He is the second shopkeeper of Fulong Trading Company in Dongshi." Jiang Wen replied.

He looked to be about forty years old, tall and thin, and elegant. If his shrewd eyes hadn't given him away, a layman would have thought he was a scholar.

Qin Yao asked curiously: "What does Fulong Trading Company do for a living on weekdays?"

Jiang Wen replied: "I have dabbled in wild mountain products, linen and silk, and the four treasures of the study."

It sounds very messy, but it also reflects that the other party has an extremely powerful freight system in order to collect all these things from all over the world.

Qin Yao was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the magical book box could attract such a large trading company.

But it was only in Fucheng that we had such an opportunity.

Qin Yao poured a cup of tea for herself and the other party. Jiang Wen took a sip, put it down and said with a smile:
"To be honest, Madam Qin just took out this book box yesterday, and I felt that this thing would definitely be on the shelves of my Fulong Trading Company."

After praising his own family, he did not forget to reveal to Qin Yao the details of the remaining businesses in the city, including those from grocery stores, bookstores, and car dealerships. After all, compared with the sales volume of his Fulong Trading Company, they were all his younger brothers.

Qin Yao heard Xuanwai's intention. The second shopkeeper wanted to be exclusive.

Qin Yao asked tentatively: "Does your firm still have branches?"

"Of course!" Jiang Wen smiled and traced a path on the table with his finger, "From Zijin Mansion to Jiangnan Mansion, there are branches of our Fulong Trading Company along the way."

"Inland water transport and we are old friends." He revealed another piece of news.

With the river transport route, this market can be opened up. There are many scribes in the south, which means Fulong Trading Company has the largest customer base.

But Qin Yao was not very excited. Jiang Wen released so much news to show their strength as soon as he arrived, so it was impossible for him to do nothing.

Sure enough, the next sentence was to ask her: "How many book boxes can Mrs. Qin's factory produce in a month?"

"If this volume cannot keep up and does not meet the qualifications to use water cargo ships, for land transportation, although our firm also has its own large truck dealers, the cost will be much higher."

At this point, the purpose has been exposed, "then this price..." will be cut to the lowest.
