Chapter 39: Potted Plants Sold Out
Li Xin was right. Shopkeeper Sun wanted to talk to her about the potted plants.
"Miss Li's potted plants have all been sold. They are novelties after all! They sold very well." Shopkeeper Sun handed a brocade box to Li Xin with a smile on his face, and Li Xin opened it and looked at it.
It turned out to be a box of silver notes. They were all worth one hundred taels of silver each. It looked like a lot of money! It seemed that those potted plants were really selling well, which Li Xin had not expected.
Cherry peppers and cherry tomatoes are novel, but they are not as beautiful as those exotic flowers and plants! Although I knew they should be sold and the price should be okay, I didn't expect them to be very high.
"Shopkeeper Sun is really good at it! All the items were sold out so quickly."
"It's still a girl's thing, you are a noble person in the capital! I usually see a lot of famous flowers and exotic flowers, so I really like this novelty thing. There are a total of 20,000 taels of silver in the box. Miss Li, do you want it?"
Click a little.”
"There's nothing I can't trust about Shopkeeper Sun." Li Xin counted out forty banknotes from the box and handed them to Shopkeeper Sun. This was also the 20% he had agreed to give to Shopkeeper Sun for running errands. Those
The potted plants actually sold for 20,000 taels of silver! It’s really a sky-high price. The purchasing power of silver in this era is very huge. In a small place like Sanshi Town, the main currency of circulation is copper coins. Silver is rare.
Yes, ordinary people rarely see silver once in their lifetime. Silver is only used in larger transactions, such as real estate transactions.
Speaking of which, this much money, if they don't live too extravagantly, is enough for their family to live comfortably for a lifetime, without having to work anymore.
"It's thanks to the girl again." Mr. Sun collected the four thousand taels of silver notes politely. They were already familiar with each other, and they would have to spend a lot of time dealing with each other in the future.
alright.
"It seems that I owe it to Shopkeeper Sun. Without the help of Shopkeeper Sun, I may not be able to sell those potted plants. Even if I could sell them, I would definitely not be able to sell them for so much money. Speaking of which, between us,
We were able to get along with each other only because Shopkeeper Sun didn’t dislike us for being down and out, otherwise we wouldn’t be here today.” Li Xin sincerely thanked Shopkeeper Sun. Although in the ongoing transactions, Shopkeeper Sun also made a lot of money because of her relationship.
She earned a lot of money, but she also received a lot of rewards from Shopkeeper Sun!
The business of selling sour bamboo shoots that day was only started because Shopkeeper Sun did not dislike their poor condition. Moreover, Shopkeeper Sun did not take advantage of their siblings just because they were children, and the previous accounts were clearly settled.
. This is the advantage of working with Shopkeeper Sun. If it were another person, I am afraid he would not be so good to them. And Shopkeeper Sun really helped them a lot. Shopkeeper Sun also helped them buy a house in the town.
, and Wen Bo and Wen Hao were alone in the town, shopkeeper Sun also took care of them.
And this time about the potted plants, 20,000 taels of silver, so much money, I am afraid that everyone will be confused! But shopkeeper Sun still handed it all to her. If shopkeeper Sun really wanted to deceive her, he would completely
It's okay. After all, she doesn't know if those potted plants are really easy to sell! She is lucky to be able to cooperate with such a person.
"Then let's just think that we have helped each other and have formed a good relationship with each other! Speaking of it, everything in the world has its own cause and effect. Let's not be polite to each other and try the mooncakes from Pinxiang Pavilion!" Shopkeeper Sun greeted us.
Li Xin and his sister were eating mooncakes. There were many plates of mooncakes on the table. They were small and could only hold three bites each. They were very delicately made and made people like them very much just by looking at them.
Li Xin invited Wenbo and others to eat moon cakes, and she also took one and tasted it slowly. The taste was indeed very good, and the ancient dim sum was really delicious!
"Pinxiang Pavilion's dim sum is really good. I brought some food here today, so it's good for the scenery. Shopkeeper Sun shouldn't dislike it." Li Xin said and took out a plate of osmanthus from the food box.
The cake came out. The aroma of osmanthus filled the room, with a strange sweetness, which made people very appetizing.
"It smells like osmanthus, could it be made with osmanthus? I've never seen such a snack before." Shopkeeper Sun took a piece of osmanthus cake and tasted it slowly. "It tastes very good, sweet and refreshing, and the osmanthus is rich. If you enjoy the osmanthus, you can enjoy it."
After eating this snack, it’s really good. What’s the name of this snack?”
"Because it is made of sweet-scented osmanthus, it is called sweet-scented osmanthus cake. Isn't there an old osmanthus tree in our village? It has bloomed now and smells very fragrant every day. I want to pick some and make them into food.
It should be good, so I gave it a try. It tasted really good, so I thought about bringing some over for Shopkeeper Sun to try."
"It's both vulgar and elegant, so the sweet-scented osmanthus cake is very appropriate. Miss Li is really skillful. I wonder if Miss Li can give this recipe to Pinxiang Pavilion?"
"What's this? Since Shopkeeper Sun wants it, I'll write it down. It's just a little troublesome to pick osmanthus. I don't know if Shopkeeper Sun can find enough osmanthus. If there are a lot of osmanthus, pickle it and you can make osmanthus all year round.
Too bad."
"You should be able to find a lot of sweet-scented osmanthus. In the south of the Yangtze River, there are still many sweet-scented osmanthus."
"Then I'll write the recipe to Shopkeeper Sun."
Li Xin wrote the recipe, sat down again, and planned to leave. Shopkeeper Sun also got up and escorted them out, and asked the waiter to pack a lot of mooncakes for them to take back. It was just some food, and Li Xin only had
I am not polite to shopkeeper Sun. Moreover, the mooncakes made by Pinxiangge do taste very good, but they may not be as good as those bought from outside.
"By the way, I have something to ask the girl." When Li Xin was about to go out, shopkeeper Sun suddenly said.
"Shopkeeper Sun has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
"It's like this. My master also bought some potted cherry tomatoes at home. The young master at home likes to eat those fruits. I want to ask Miss Li if she still has them? Can she sell some more?
"
"There are still some. If Shopkeeper Sun wants it, go and get it! There's no need to say whether it can be sold or not. Shopkeeper Sun can just take it. Let me be honest with Shopkeeper Sun, that thing won't last long."
"The young master is clamoring for it. As long as Miss Li still has it, it's fine. It's just that we can't stay married for too long. It's good if we can cope with it for a while."
"Then Shopkeeper Sun will let people come over in two days! I also have some new dishes that I want to bring for Shopkeeper Sun to try. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so I didn't bring them over." Tomatoes and peppers can also be picked.
Yes, the peppers can be kept and dried for use, but the tomatoes need to be sold as soon as possible. In total, after planting more than an acre of land, it still costs a lot. It would be best if they could be sold directly to Pinxiang Pavilion.
. And, isn’t the young man from Shopkeeper Sun’s family craving cherry tomatoes? The taste is actually similar to that of big tomatoes. There are not many cherry tomatoes left, so maybe we can send some big tomatoes. The tomatoes are just fresh.
If it is partially red, it will last for a long time.
