Madam, She Has a Tender Heart

Chapter 207: A big loss for a small gain

After selling all the goods, the governor withheld 20% of the profit as Su Qing'an said in the letter. Read М

But he didn't plan to take all of it, and planned to leave 10% of the profit to Ma Mingwen.

Siyuan and Siyuan had already established a relationship with the manager of the caravan. They learned that he had a lot of goods, and bought a lot of food and various daily necessities needed by the village from him.

Both parties were happy.

The goods were sold out in just one day, and they also bought what everyone in the village needed. Siyuan and his friends went to the cloth shop and the human traffickers, and also asked the manager of the outer courtyard, but there was no news of Su Qing'an's family.

Before leaving, Pei Nian gave Siyuan a letter and asked him to take it to Su Qing'an.

Madam Ma also packed some gifts for Su Qing'an. She heard that Xiaobao had frostbite and felt very distressed. She packed a large box of frostbite cream and various medicines for Xiaobao.

When the last group of people left, the governor's mansion also ordered people to escort them to the foot of the mountain.

Of the three groups of people who went out to sell goods, the first to come back was Siyuan and Siyuan.

When they came back, everyone in the village gathered around them.

Xiu'er was a little worried. Her grandfather had been out for several days and had not returned yet. She wondered if something had happened. Her grandfather had gone to the nearest Baipi County. Those who went to Renzhou had all returned.

Su Qing'an glanced at her and asked her to come over to register and distribute silver to everyone.

One-third of the people in the village handed over their goods to Siyuan and Siyuan. Almost every family had dozens or hundreds of kilograms, and some had more than 200 kilograms.

At this time, you can see the benefits of having more labor at home.

Although each family asked Siyuan and his friends to exchange some food and daily necessities, the silver in their hands was still heavy.

The least family had more than ten taels of silver. Some had dozens of taels. Two families picked Ganoderma lucidum, and the caravan even offered a price of twenty taels per flower.

The two families were overjoyed and their faces were red. I have never seen silver before, so much! I don't have to worry about this winter.

Siyuan and Siyuan were very happy with the people who went to Renzhou together. They didn't suffer any hardship in Renzhou, and they didn't have to go out. A caravan came to ask for goods, and they didn't have to carry them. Moreover, they stayed in the governor's mansion for one night and were treated to delicious food and drinks by the governor's mansion.

When several people talked about the governor's mansion, they were full of praise. They said how majestic and approachable the governor was. Everyone was envious.

"The caravan manager said that winter is coming and nuts are hot-selling. Although there are fewer people on the street, the rich people still have money and haven't run away, so they want to find some rare things. So our goods were immediately asked for by the consul of the caravan."

"He also said that if there are any in the future, they will always ask for them!"

"Yes. The price is also high."

"Well, he also praised our mountain products for being clean and neat, and the mushrooms are clean and categorized. He said that he likes to do business with sellers like us."

Several people talked about it, making those who gave the goods to Siyuan and Siyuan to sell very happy.

The family members put in some effort and worked in the mountains for a few days. They just picked them back, washed and processed them, and didn't have to worry about anything else, and they got so much silver.

Holding the heavy silver, everyone was very happy.

When paying Siyuan and others for their wages, they were particularly straightforward.

After taking the money home, these people turned around and sent all kinds of food and side dishes to Su Qingmei.

The others were looking forward to the return of the other two teams with sourness and worry. They got so much money from selling to Renzhou, so they must have more than them. The governor's office also withheld 20%.

After the villagers dispersed, Su Qing'an opened the letter from the governor to her.

The letter talked about leaving 10% of the profit to her godfather. He also praised her for doing a good job. It has only been a short time, and she has led the villagers to live a good life.

Attached with the letter was a mountain deed with Su Qing'an's name on it.

It turned out that Su Qing'an had been traveling with Siyuan and Siyuan for many days and found that there was a mountain without any village. It was in Renzhou and not far from their village, so they crossed two mountains. Then they asked Pei Nian how much silver it would take to buy it.

She didn't have much silver in her hand. Although the money to buy mountain land was much cheaper than the price of buying land, she was afraid that she couldn't afford a whole mountain with the silver in her hand.

She originally just wanted to ask, and then have a goal, try to save some money, or rent it first, or buy half a piece, and then plan for the future when she has money.

But she didn't expect Pei Nian to give her the mountain deed.

He also told her to manage it well. He said that the nuts and bamboo shoots she sent over were loved by her family.

Su Qingmei was grateful. She decided to send more nuts and bamboo shoots to her family after she managed the mountain well.

The letter also mentioned that he helped her find her sister and Su Dahu, but the three of them were missing. There was no more letter from the cloth shop.

Su Qingmei felt lost.

I don't know where they are now, and how they are doing.

Two days later, Baishu, who went to Gongxi County, came back first.

He didn't sell all the goods, and brought some back. Everyone in the group was a little discouraged.

They entered Gongxi County and didn't find the caravan. Several people went door to door to sell. They were treated as bad people when they knocked on the door, and the price was pushed down very low.

Several people needed accommodation and food in Gongxi County, and the expenses were high. Seeing that the wild animals and mushrooms had been bought, and the nuts had not been selling for several days, the group did not plan to stay any longer and had to return to the village.

When everyone divided the money, they found that those who picked up a lot of wild goods did not get as much money as those who picked up a small amount, and sold them to Renzhou for more money.

Moreover, the governor's office deducted 20% of the money.

I couldn't be happy with the money and felt quite regretful.

I looked forward to their return happily, thinking that I was smarter than others, and thought that I would get more money from selling it, but I didn't expect that I didn't even get half of it.

Everyone worked equally hard, and even my own family members picked up more wild goods than others. But for so little money. It’s hard to hide the loss.

One day later, Lord Zhonghan and his party also came back.

They were even more embarrassed than Cypress, and some of them even had wounds on their faces.

Baishu may have followed Su Qingyu for a period of time. He was a cautious person, and he also knew how to change things. When he couldn't find merchants, he knocked on doors one by one and sold most of the goods.

But Zhongzhai Master was cheated of the goods. The other party lied to them that they were merchants and asked them to pick out the goods. However, after delivering the goods and waiting for payment, they were kicked out.

Several people went up to argue with each other, but unexpectedly, they were beaten and thrown out even if they didn't say they couldn't get the money.

The group of people had to pay for various expenses such as medical treatment, accommodation, and food. They didn't earn any money, and they paid a lot of money, and they almost lost their lives.

Seeing that her grandfather had been beaten and there were wounds on his face, Xiuer rushed towards him and cried.

Cypress also went over to help him.

Seeing that he was tired, Su Qingnao asked Xiu'er and Baishu to send the Zhongzhai leader back home.

She stayed to help deal with it.
