Chapter 447: 447 Earn Big Money 4

She paused for a moment, and then blurted out a random story, “I know a great landlord in business who wants to buy fresh ferns, half a cent per jin, and he asked me to collect them. He’ll take as much as we have. Instead of feeding the ferns to pigs or letting them spoil, it’s better to sell them to him. He said he’d take however many we have.”

“Really?” The villagers who couldn’t sell their ferns before had their eyes shining with excitement.

“Of course, it’s true.” Su Qingyue glanced at the more than twenty villagers carrying over twenty loads of more than two thousand jin of ferns. Zhang Shun really had good luck selling his ferns.

“Half a cent per jin, weigh it, and I’ll pay you in cash.” Su Qingyue shouted to the guys, “If you want to sell fresh ferns, come with me.”

She took the lead and headed towards the Xiao Family, with the little bastard obediently following at her feet.

More than twenty people carrying their poles followed her behind.

Some villagers who were unaware of the situation asked about it, and those who still had ferns at home also hurried back to prepare to take their ferns to Qingyue’s Family to sell.

The three men on the master bedroom’s bed of the Xiao Family saw Qingyue coming back and were happy at first, but then confused when they saw so many people following her.

“Wife, what’s going on?” Xiao Yuchuan asked puzzlingly.

“I’ll tell you later. I’m buying fresh ferns on behalf of someone.” She simply said, “Don’t ask anything for now, I’ll explain later.”

She spoke directly to Xiao Yishan, “Second brother, I want as many fresh ferns as possible at half a cent per jin.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yishan knew his wife must have a new idea to make money and nodded, “As you wish.”

He immediately handed over all the silver she had submitted earlier.

Su Qingyue suddenly felt a little guilty.

At first, she thought it was troublesome to give money to her second brother and then ask him to return it, but now, without even frowning, he handed it all

over on her request.

Even the third and fourth brothers looked at her with trust. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

Suddenly she felt that she should try to trust them as well.

At this time, dozens of people carrying poles also arrived at the entrance of the Xiao family’s courtyard.

Wang Cuihua also came, and Qingyue took balance out from the storage room and asked her, “Cuihua, could you do me a favor and pick about thirty or forty banana leaves?”

“Sure!” She didn’t ask any further and turned around to leave.

It was Qian Zhang, who had also come to sell ferns with her husband, who asked, “Wife of the Xiao Family, what do you need the banana leaves for?”

“For padding in the storage room later.” She said, “The collected ferns can’t be placed directly on the ground, right? It would be_dirty.”

“That’s true.” Qian Zhang agreed.

Su Qingyue picked up the scale and pointed at her two empty bamboo baskets, saying to everyone, “It will take some time for Cuihua to pick the banana leaves. I’ve weighed my two empty baskets first, which are about six jin in total. I think your baskets are roughly the same size as mine. After weighing a whole load of ferns, subtract six jin, which equals the net weight of your ferns. If you can accept this, weigh it first. Of course, each family’s baskets may weigh slightly differently, so you or I might lose a little. If you want to weigh your baskets accurately, wait a little longer. After Cuihua comes back and puts the banana leaves in the storage room, weigh your load of ferns, pour them into the storage room, and weigh your empty baskets accurately and deduct the actual.”_

“I’ll weigh mine first. It doesn’t matter if it’s a jin or two lighter.” Ding Er said.

Su Qingyue weighed his load of ferns, “One hundred twenty jin, minus six jin for the basket, it’s one hundred fourteen jin of ferns. At half a cent per jin, it’s a total of fifty-seven cents..”
