Tang Zangyue didn't care about the source of these fruits, and only said: "Apart from these two things? Food..."

"Madam, please don't think about it. Besides the grain store, who else will sell life-saving grains? But if madam wants it, I can help you contact the grain store, but at this price..."

"price negotiable."

This person's identity will be placed in later generations, which is equivalent to an intermediary. There are two types of intermediaries. One is to ignore what the customer needs, wait for the transaction to be completed, and directly pay a certain amount, and the transaction is completed; the other is to ask for less things, and the intermediary will not do anything.

The money raised from the price increase for each product is used as agency fees.

Tang Zangyue wanted a lot of things, so she chose the first option.

"Coarse grains, 5 Wen per catty; polished rice, 30 Wen per pound; pork, 35 Wen per catty; oil, 100 Wen per catty; salt, 20 to 160 Wen per catty. You can get as much as you want, the price will be as I say.

"

Hearing this, the young man's face changed. He was obviously dissatisfied with this statement. Tang Zangyue raised his hand again and said: "Listen to me first. I will definitely not let my little brother run away in vain. As long as there are enough things, I am satisfied and it is time to give them."

There are certainly many benefits to my little brother."

"How much do you plan to give?"

This must be discussed first.

Tang Zangyue smiled slightly: "If you put all these things together and the transaction is done in tons, the hard-working brother will run away, and it will be forty taels or more."

The young man swallowed his saliva.

Forty taels!

The income of a family in the village is only about ten taels of silver throughout the year, and even the second-class maids of those wealthy families only earn four or five taels of silver a month.

A farmer would have to struggle for ten years to earn forty taels, and a decent slave would have to struggle for nearly a year to earn this kind of income.

The woman also said it was more than forty taels.

Then he must make things right.

Things were collected at the original price, and the profit was made by the grain store and the farmers below. He didn't make a profit, but at 10% of the transaction, the profit was real.

what is this?

Even if it is not open during normal times, it will last for a year if it is open.

The young man rubbed his hands, "Then, what if you don't come or run away? Don't throw things into my hands?"

Tang Zangyue smiled and said: "It's normal for business to have risks. If I'm really worried, I can hire some people. Then we can explain it in person, okay?"

"My lady is open and cheerful."

After reuniting with Xiao Zhongli, Xiao Yuechun said nothing and silently pulled the grain on the cart.

Xiao Zhongli wanted to say something, but Tang Zangyue stopped him. He had to take over Xiao Yuechun's work and immersed himself in the task.

She let the two of them go ahead. On the forest path, after seeing no one on either side, she whistled. Fifteen suddenly came into view.

Fifteen knelt down on one knee and said respectfully: "Old Madam."

"Do something tonight."

fifteen:???

Seeing that the child was at a loss, Tang Zangyue asked the child to come over and whispered a few words before letting him go.

Purchasing things took a long time, but the government officials originally planned to organize the day and set off the next day, so they didn't say much.

Tang Zangyue directed his eldest and second grandson to dig a simple stove, while the twins went to collect firewood, and then led the remaining women and children to pick edible wild vegetables.

Simply put, these women and children were quite reliable and could endure hardships, so they didn't let Tang Zangyue worry too much.

Aunt Liu recognized these things quickly and soon started teaching Sister Ling, while she was responsible for taking care of the fifth girl.

Xiaowu was thoughtful, and when he saw that the wild vegetables he had picked exceeded his daily consumption, he couldn't help but ask: "Mom, are there any other uses for these wild vegetables?"

Xiaowu should have called her mistress, but she changed her name early.

Tang Zangyue: "Make some pickles. There are also some wild vegetables in this season. It will take us several months to hike to the place of exile. Even if there are towns and counties to replenish some food on the way, it will be difficult to get fresh vegetables. It will be cold by then.

If it is frozen in the ground, people will get sick easily if they eat less vegetables.

We can also make some pickles, but I forgot to buy some pickles."

Xiao Wu Xiao Yuenong said respectfully: "Thank you very much, mother, for clearing up the confusion."

"No problem."

Even though these people were disciplined by their original supervisor, they had never entered the kitchen. The men mainly trained in military training, and the women mainly practiced embroidery and had practiced some self-defense techniques. After thinking about it, she still had to be the head of the family.

Mother's belt.

To be honest, Tang Zangyue's own cooking is just like that. It's edible, but not very delicious.

She grabbed a handful of rice and threw it into the pot, stirred it with water, and when it was finally cooked, she poured in the chopped wild vegetables.

After finishing, seeing Aunt Liu frowning, she took the initiative to ask, "What?"

Aunt Liu didn't know whether to say it or not, and her hesitant look made Tang Zangyue anxious.

Tang Zangyue thought that what this person who did not know about the changes in the court and the real secrets of his family should be able to listen to the officials around him, so he took the initiative to ask.

Aunt Liu was shocked for a moment, and then she stammered: "Old, old madam, it seems that this rice has never been scooped."

Tang Zangyue's hand holding the bowl and chopsticks was slightly stiff.

She recalled it carefully.

Huh? Is there any?

It seems to have……

She even forgot the most important step in cooking, washing rice!

In order to maintain her dignity as the head mother of the house, Tang Zangyue coughed twice to cover up her embarrassment and said: "I haven't cooked for a long time, so I am inevitably a bit rusty."

No one else dared to answer.

Only the youngest Sister Ling laughed out loud.

After meeting Tang Zangyue's careless gaze, she was so horrified that she hurriedly drank her grandmother's wild vegetable brown rice porridge that she had never washed.

The atmosphere was as peaceful as before the house raid.

No, compared to the past when the General's Mansion was full of rules and regulations, the Xiao family now has less constraints and seems more comfortable and closer.

Only Mrs. Zhang, who was nibbling dried steamed buns not far away, watched eagerly and couldn't get involved.

After her ex-mother-in-law went shopping, Ms. Zhang gave Shiro several glances, but the other party ignored her and showed no sign.

Mrs. Zhang was anxious and wanted to approach Xiao Jinhuan, but was forcefully stopped by Xiao Zhonglu from the main room.

"Since Aunt Zhang has reconciled with her fourth uncle, she should know that there is a big problem between men and women."

Mrs. Zhang bit her lower lip and said without tears: "Brother Lu, no matter what, you have called me Fourth Aunt for so many years, how come you are like this? You are trying to break my Fourth Aunt's heart!"

Seeing that Xiao Zhonglu was unmoved, Ms. Zhang gritted her back teeth and said, "But the old lady asked you to do this? Who are you guarding against..."

Xiao Zhonglu: "If my aunt was shameless, she shouldn't have made a show in front of us juniors after my grandmother left. Isn't it my aunt's partial favor for the adopted son that put our Xiao family in this situation?"

Mrs. Zhang's face turned ugly for a moment. When she looked around, not to mention that Aunt Liu was frightened, even the other government servants who were watching the excitement looked at her with contempt.

"Why is there one more person in our team?"

"Are you busy running around these days? You don't even know her?"

"Should I know?"

"She is the fourth lady of the General's Mansion who is famous all over the capital and loves her adopted son more than her own son."

"It turns out to be her."

Before the collapse of the General's Mansion, who among the official families did not laugh at Zhang's behavior behind his back? The bigger the family, the more emphasis they placed on blood relationships. If one's own children were treated the same way as the peasants, it would be fine not to blame the adopted son for revenge.

, Zhang Zhang is so stupid that he still favors his adopted son.

Who doesn’t shake their head after looking at this?

As expected, he comes from a small family and has a narrow mind. If the old lady of the General's Mansion hadn't been in charge of the overall situation, I'm afraid this matter of the real and fake second young master would have caused more absurdities.

After this joke, it became clear that the official residence was strictly guarding the legitimate sons. If you want to marry someone, you can marry them, and it’s no problem to raise them as a side wife. You have to give birth to an heir before you are eligible. As for the position of the main wife, they must be of the same family. They

The mansion can't afford to lose face and let a girl from a small family pass through the door and make others laugh.

For wealthy people, face is the most important thing.

It can be said that the general's mansion has been completely humiliated by the rat excrement Zhang's.

In the past, it was just a small fight, but this time the General Mansion suffered such a big setback because of the adopted son Zhang protected. Even if she tried to make amends over it again, it would still depend on whether the Xiao family would accept this trick.

Zhang's face turned green for a while, then paled for a while, and finally shouted to Xiao Jamhuan: "Silang, I know I was wrong, Silang. For the sake of your husband's kindness, please forgive me this time, Silang...

…”

This voice has a crying tone, is gentle and long, which makes people feel distressed.

This is also Zhang's usual tactic after being married for many years. As long as he begs like this, Xiao Jinhuan will definitely forgive him.
