Chapter 28 Toxic
Zhong Moran, the owner of the iron shop, is very discerning.

When he heard about the uses of these farm tools, he immediately said, "Would Er Niangzi sell these blueprints to me?"

He doesn't know the power of the improved sickle for the time being, but the shovel, rake and improved shovel seem to be easy to use.

This is not the first time for Shen Xingchen to come here. People in Qilin Town basically know a celebrity like her.

Zhong Moran is no exception.

He has an upright personality, and he doesn't take advantage of ordinary people, especially Shen Xingchen.

When Shen Xingchen asked about the price leisurely, he said frankly, "Ming people don't talk dark words, I want to send these drawings to the household department to exchange merits for my family. If the second lady is willing to name it, each drawing will be 100 taels of silver." , if you don't want to name it, 1000 taels per copy."

Shen Xingchen, "..."

1000 taels per serving, that is 4000 taels...

Is it too expensive?

However, according to Boss Zhong, it is indeed worthwhile to use it to win his family's fame and fortune.

She hesitated for a while and replied with a smile, "In my situation, it's not suitable to be named, and I can sell it to you at a lower price of 800 taels, but I would like you to collect some seeds and fruit seedlings for me."

The corner of Zhong Moran's mouth twitched, and he asked suspiciously, "What kind of seed? Is it hard to find?"

Shen Xingchen shook his head, "It's not difficult, it's just that I suddenly wanted to find some fresh vegetables, fruit trees, exotic flowers and plants to pass the time.

Don't worry, I will pay for those separately. "

Zhong Moran naturally wouldn't refuse such a simple matter.

He nodded lightly, "Yes, but if the price is too expensive, do you want it?"

"If the price of a single copy does not exceed 100 taels, you can accept it."

In fact, it can be more expensive, but Shen Xingchen doesn't want to feed the greed of adults. Although the current Zhong Moran seems to have a good character, but the temptation is too great, and he will become bad because of it, so it is not beautiful.

Zhong Moran nodded, "Yes. Then regarding these agricultural tools, does Er Niangzi need to make a contract?"

"No, just give me the money.

Well, remember, these four farming tools are yours, not mine. "

Zhong Muran bowed his hands to her sincerely, "The second lady is bold, and Zhong really admires her."

Shen Xingchen bowed back and said with a smile, "Well, I'll go first, and you can collect the seeds and fruit seedlings for me with the more than 3000 taels of silver."

Zhong Moran, who needed to pawn the ancestral treasures to get together the three thousand two hundred taels of silver, was stunned for a moment.

Isn't she afraid that she will lose her money?

He really wanted to ask directly, but he was too embarrassed to ask.

Shen Xingchen understood his thoughts, hugged Xiaoxuan and said in a gentle voice, "Help me pack my things well, well done, I'll send you some blueprints someday."

Zhong Moran, "..."

She still has blueprints?
Could it be that she is a mechanism master?

After finishing the matter of the seeds, Shen Xingchen felt refreshed, and took Xiaoxuan to the grain store on the same street with a smile.

I bought [-] catties of white rice, [-] catties of millet, [-] catties of high-quality wheat, and [-] catties of various beans that Xiaoxuan and she both love to eat. Her eyes fell on a bag of slightly sprouted potatoes in the corner. superior.

She knows that there are potatoes in this world, but the Minghao country where she lives does not know how to grow potatoes, and they are usually wild or purchased from neighboring countries.

It retails at ten cents a catty, more expensive than white rice, and it is not easy to store, it is easy to germinate, and it is poisonous to eat after sprouting. Although the stew tastes good, the audience is not large.

Shen Xingchen searched the original body's memory, guessing that these potatoes had been eliminated by the grain store, and decided to pick a leak.

She smiled and asked the waiter who was busy weighing her food, "Do you have sprouted potatoes in your store?"

The young waiter in the young shop who was originally happy because of the arrival of her big customer immediately collapsed, "No, this time the boss was cheated by a friend, and the two hundred catties of potatoes that were supplied to him are good except for the thin layer on top. The rest have sprouted, and the boss is sick because of this."

Shen Xingchen imagined the appearance of a grain shop owner like Maitreya Buddha, and said with a smile, "How much do you buy? Can you sell it to me at the purchase price? I want to try planting."

Shen Xingchen knew that she couldn't hide her planting of "strange crops" from others, so it was better to say it openly.

The waiter in the shop was dumbfounded, and when he came back to his senses, he immediately dissuaded him, "Second lady, are you rich? If so, I won't stop you, but if you don't have a lot of money, I advise you not to do stupid things. Someone has been planting this potato for five years without success." , It’s a waste of money.”

Shen Xingchen was amused in his heart, and his face was calm, "I don't have much money, but it's still okay to try planting for a year, so why don't you just say how to sell it?"

The shop waiter, "...I have to ask the boss first."

The boss just told him to take these heartbreaking poisonous potatoes and bury them in the backyard after closing time. If Shen Xingchen was an ordinary person, he would dare to give them to her directly, but she just...

Forget it, let's leave the problem to the boss.

The waiter quickly invited the boss out.

The boss used to have a smile on his face, but now he is very serious. He squinted his eyes and looked at the potatoes for a long time before slowly asking, "Second lady, are you sure you want to grow potatoes and not use them for other things?"

If it was something else, he dared to buy it, but this potato is poisonous, if it is not handled properly, it will not only kill people, but may also anger the emperor and implicate him.

Shen Xingchen knew his scruples, walked outside the store, picked up a small stone from the ground, and threw it at a sparrow flying in the sky.

When the sparrow fell to the ground, she calmly said to the shocked owner of the grain store, "Look, if I want to do something else, I don't need to go through such a trouble of buying potatoes. Besides, who would dare to eat my food?"

Su Jin and Su Rui, who came to the town to meet Shen Xingchen by chance, were speechless when they heard this sentence, "..."

We dare, we wish for it.

Not knowing exactly what was going on, they just yelled "Sister Xingchen, Xiaoxuan" with a smile, without interjecting.

The owner of the grain store has been persuaded by Shen Xingchen, and he changed into a smiling face again, "In this case, I will sell it to you at half the purchase price, three pennies per catty."

Shen Xingchen was always straightforward, "Deal!"

Only then did I realize that Shen Xingchen was going to buy sprouted potatoes and go back to plant Su Jin and Su Rui, "..."

They felt that Shen Xingchen must know how to grow potatoes, otherwise he wouldn't have bought so many at once...

Ah... Sister Xingchen is really a treasure.

After weighing the potatoes, Shen Xingchen hesitated for a moment, and asked the owner of the grain store, "Excuse me, boss, can you buy sweet potatoes?"

Sweet potatoes are also sweet potatoes, which were imported in Shen Xingchen's previous life. It is not unusual for this world to have no trace of it.

The owner of the grain shop was really at a loss. He asked suspiciously, "I have never heard of this name, maybe there is another name. I wonder if Er Niangzi can describe it?"

describe?
She didn't have the confidence to speak clearly, so let's draw.

She took out a charcoal pencil and paper from the basket, and explained while drawing, "Sweet potatoes are also called sweet potatoes, and the roots, stems and leaves are edible..."

The owner of the grain store, Su Jin and Su Rui all said that they had never seen sweet potatoes before.

However, they all said that sweet potatoes are really a good thing, and they must not let them go when they encounter them.
