An Shuyao got straight to the point: "I have ginseng, and it's a thousand years old."
Yuan Yi suspected that he was hallucinating. Where did An Shuyao, a small peasant girl, get the thousand-year-old ginseng?
Seeing Yuan Yi's confusion, she continued to come up with her made-up words: "To be honest, I am not a native of Anzhou. Because my family was in trouble, I was forced to come to this place in Anzhou to make a living. The ginseng left my family.
I picked it up casually when I was away. I wanted to use it to kill myself in case there was any accident on the road, but I found that the old lady seemed to need some more, so I can sell them to you for free."
No wonder she is different from others in terms of temperament, and she is so capable that ordinary people cannot cultivate her.
only……
How big does this declining family have to be to be able to easily harvest thousand-year-old ginseng? He already believed half of An Shuyao's words: "You called me aside just to talk about this?"
"No, I also hope that Yuan Shaodong's family can keep our transaction secret. You and I both understand the principle of keeping wealth secret. What's more, I am really just an ordinary farm girl now. I don't want to be remembered by others for no reason because of money. If you
If I can do it, I will sell it to you."
Yuan Yi didn't care, so he said cheerfully: "Don't worry, I promise not to tell anyone."
An Shuyao breathed a sigh of relief. If her unlucky husband found out, he might think it was Lu Xian who gave it to her. Last time he mentioned that Lu Xian was going to have a baby. If there was another misunderstanding, she would probably wait for her.
I just can't get out of bed...
Yuan Yi continued: "The market price of thousand-year ginseng is one thousand taels of silver. I will give you some more, one thousand five hundred taels."
An Shuyao refused: "No need, just pay the market price. I will send the ginseng the day after tomorrow."
She didn't want to accept Yuan Yi's favor because of the extra five hundred taels, because favors were the hardest to repay, so it was more practical.
Seeing An Shuyao's persistence, Yuan Yi didn't know what to say, but his favorable impression of An Shuyao improved a lot. He insisted on himself, had clear eyes, and was aboveboard in his actions. He was definitely an excellent partner in cooperation.
You don't have to worry about her stabbing you in the back.
Yuan Yi felt that An Shuyao could be a close friend, and the two of them laughed and chatted back to the distance. He said politely: "Miss An, you can come to our Yuan Mansion to have some fun when you have time. I will do my best to entertain you as a landlord."
"
Mrs. Yuan gave Yuan Yi an appreciative look and echoed: "Yes, yes, Girl An, don't worry, you can just treat yourself as your own family when you come here. As long as I am here, no one will dare to bully you."
."
The over-enthusiastic Yuan Mansion made An Shuyao feel a little bald. She laughed and said, "I will definitely go to your mansion next time."
Just as the carriage from the Yuan Mansion arrived, all the things Mrs. Yuan gave her were in the carriage, so An Shuyao excused herself.
Mrs. Yuan asked for a carriage to take her home. An Shuyao did not refuse. She got on the carriage and found that the carriage was full of things. There was nothing particularly precious. They were all food, various vegetables, and tea.
.
There were almost dozens of taels in total, and An Shuyao sighed.
She felt like she was dating a rich woman, but the most important thing was the ginseng and one thousand taels of silver promised to Yuan Yi. She was going to make a fortune!
Because it was convenient to have a carriage, An Shuyao went to buy rice, noodles, sweet potatoes, soybeans, fresh meat, and other tools, and put them all in the carriage.
When passing by a hairpin shop called Jade Pavilion, An Shuyao called out, then jumped off the carriage and walked into the store.
There are all kinds of jewelry inside, including earrings, bracelets, gold, silver, and jade.
The waiter at the shop greeted him enthusiastically, and An Shuyao casually told her to take a look, and then she saw a silver peony hairpin inlaid with white jade.
The waiter in the shop immediately said: "Girl, you have such good eyesight. The hairpin we have is made of the finest Hetian jade. The whole hairpin is made of silver. It is luxurious and elegant. You only need three taels of silver to take it home."
Upon hearing this, An Shuyao immediately retracted her hand, and her eyes were attracted by a light blue hair tie.
The cloud pattern on the cloth of this bundle is really beautiful, and the blue and white look is eye-catching.
She stretched out her hand and took it off. It felt silky and cool, and she saw that it was fine fabric. She asked, "How can I sell this?"
"One tael of silver."
"This is made from Jiangnan silk. The pattern on it is Su embroidery, and there is only one."
An Shuyao couldn't put it down and touched it, and immediately said: "Wrap it up."
Lu Jin would definitely look good wearing it. He only had the wooden hairpin she gave her that day. It was too shabby and he had to dress up properly.
After buying the hair tie, An Shuyao packed up her bags and headed back to the village.
As soon as the carriage she rode entered the village, it attracted everyone's attention. The capitalized word "Yuan" on it was particularly eye-catching. This group of people also included Shi Sanniang and others who had just arrived at the entrance of the village in an ox cart.
The wind blew slightly and the car curtain was opened. The sharp-eyed aunt saw An Shuyao and immediately exclaimed: "Hey, the lady sitting there just now was Mrs. Lu. It's amazing. Her family is going to make a fortune. This
He must have made good friends with Zuixian Pavilion, but I saw the word Yuan on it."
"Tsk, no, the Lu family has made a fortune so quickly. They have only been established in Rock Village for a short time. This achievement can be compared to our decades of struggle."
"Hey, if you're not envious, just make more friends with the Lu family in the future. Didn't you hear that she wants to make tofu? No matter if it's delicious or not, let's go and support it."
Several people were busy discussing, and Shi Sanniang was full of envy. She had only seen a carriage in the county town, but had never ridden in it. Moreover, the carriage was so rich and expensive, and there must be a lot of good things in it.
Alas, it's a pity that she can't own any of it. After taking back the acid water, everyone went back to their homes.
When the carriage arrived at the gate of the courtyard, the young man jumped out of the car first. He looked around curiously and said with a smile: "Miss An's family is quite simple."
An Shuyao replied with a smile: "People in the countryside are not so particular. They are very satisfied if they have food, shelter and clothing."
The young man agreed: "That's true. In this life, you can only ask for these things."
The young man's family is not a wealthy one. He can drive horses in the Yuan Mansion, allowing him to make a living. Naturally, he will not look down on An Shuyao's house.
An Shuyao walked to the wooden fence: "Fourth brother, come and help me carry some things."
An Yunrui came out of the woodshed. He was holding an ax in his hand. He saw that he was chopping firewood there. He put the ax down, wiped his hands and said, "Here we come."
Liu Yuxue also poked her head out of the house and came with An Yunrui. She looked at the carriage: "Why did you come back by carriage today?"
An Shuyao coughed lightly and said, "I'll tell you when I get back. First come and help me with my things."
Several people worked together to lift everything down, especially when they reached the various fresh vegetables at the back, some unknown things packed in boxes, as well as the exquisite pastries, candies and tea, they were all shocked.
He asked An Shuyao with his eyes, where did she go to act chivalrously and come back after extorting so many things.
It wasn't until the Yuan Mansion's carriage drove away that she touched her nose and said, "A few days ago, I accidentally saved a person. This is a thank you gift from her to me. She is a very heroic old lady."
