Little lucky girl with supernatural powers in the farm, becomes rich in business and raises cubs

Chapter 33 Trading
Of course, Mrs. Zhang believed in her master, how he treated her for so many years was like a mirror in her heart.

"The ice for Tzu Chi Hall is definitely not bought from a commercial company, not to mention that the commercial company will not sell ice to other houses over us, and they can't afford the money to buy ice." Mrs. Zhang said softly. "Master, we have a relationship with Dr. Cen, I wonder if we..."

Zhang Fengling and his wife also wanted to go together. Since it is impossible to buy the ice in Tzu Chi Hall, then he must have other sources of ice. Is there a secret recipe for preserving ice in winter?Or is there an expert who pointed out the magic method, such as turning water into ice?

He invited old man Cen to come to his home to treat his son before, and offered him a generous reward and precious medicinal materials. Although it was not a close relationship, he was at least an acquaintance.If Tzu Chi Tang really has a secret recipe for making ice cubes, I can pull the old face to get close for the sake of my wife.

"Ma'am, don't worry, I'll get someone to prepare it, and I'll go to the Tzu Chi Hall to visit Dr. Xia Cen." If you want Madam to spend the summer comfortably, buying herbal tea every day is not enough, he needs more ice piece.

Mrs. Zhang covered Zhang Fengling's arm with her delicate hands, and patted him to make him calm down. "My lord, I think Dr. Cen is also a person who prefers softness to toughness. Healers are parents. If we go to the Tzu Chi Hall to ask about Bing, we should show our sincerity."

"Madame means..."

"Let's prepare some gifts. When the sky gets darker, I will go to the Tzu Chi Hall with you." If the Tzu Chi Hall's ice really has a secret recipe, then they must want to keep it secret, and choose to go after the dark sky and the crowd have dispersed. It also showed that the Zhang family valued them.

Zhang Fengling nodded and said yes, Mrs. Zhang was thoughtful and thoughtful, he immediately called Uncle Sun and asked Uncle Sun to prepare gifts according to his wife's wishes, and after the sun went down, the two went to visit the Tzu Chi Hall together.

The afterglow of the setting sun stirs up the flowing clouds, and the sky is like a thick palette, blue and purple are mixed together, gradually moving towards deep black.

Xiaoxun held a big bamboo broom and cleaned the open space in front of the Tzu Chi Hall. His sleeves were rolled up a few folds and pushed behind his elbows. On his well-proportioned arms, he could see the blue veins emerging from his force. The muscles hidden under his clothes were bulging, showing that The owner of the body is strong and powerful.

He has to practice short swords for several hours every day, stabbing, picking, hooking, and cutting the air with the blade. He has never read the related sword formulas, but those moves seem to be engraved in his mind and imprinted on him. With muscle memory.As long as he holds the sword in his hand, he can completely practice a whole set of sword formulas without delay.

Sufficient nutrition and hard work, now Xiaoxun can already see the shadow of a grown man.

After Xiaoruo counted the money she had received for the day, she looked up and saw Xiaoxun who was still sweeping the floor. He was already half a head taller than her, and the dark sky melted the edges of his body, magnifying his size to the naked eye. Looking strong, she couldn't help feeling that adolescent children grow so fast.

It was at this time that Zhang Fengling and Mrs. Zhang visited.

The two small sedan chairs landed quietly under the tree next to the entrance of the Tzu Chi Hall. Zhang Fengling and his wife got off the sedan chair and told the bearers to wait there. They did not bring any servants, but only brought Uncle Sun and Changbai Sun to carry presents.

Xiaoxun stopped sweeping the floor, held the broom handle and watched the four people enter the Tzu Chi Hall, after a moment of thought, he also followed into the room with the broom.

It stands to reason that this point is close to closing, and few people will come here at this moment.

Xiaoruo recognized Zhang Fengling and Mrs. Zhang at a glance, and she guessed in her heart the purpose of the two people's visit.

"Axun, help me put away my things." She called Xiaoxun to tidy up the counter, then turned to the Zhang family and said, "Master Zhang, Mrs. Zhang, please come inside."

Sun Bo and Sun Changbai stayed in the front hall with winking eyes, put the precious medicinal materials and two bolts of silk satin they brought on the counter, and waited quietly for the old lady.

Xiaoruo took the Zhang family couple to the backyard and invited them to sit at the stone table.

Xiaozhao brought tea, greeted the guests politely, and quietly watched "Li Weng Conversations" by candlelight. Xiao's father often taught them how to read and read sentences when he was alive, and he could read some by himself. Basic books.

Zhang Fengling looked around the small courtyard. The backyard of Tzu Chi Hall was small but very tidy. There were a few empty baskets on the wooden frame, presumably for drying medicinal materials.

"Why didn't you see Dr. Cen?" He couldn't help asking since he hadn't seen old man Cen since he came in.

"Mr. Cen twisted his waist a few days ago, and has been resting in bed for a while." Xiaoruo made tea for both of them. When she registered the appointment for Zhang's nanny today, she guessed that the Zhang family would definitely come to the door, but she didn't. Thinking that the two of them were so restless, they came that day.

"Master Zhang and his wife are not here today to visit Mr. Cen, are they?" She smiled slightly, with a hint of cunning in her smile.

From the moment she decided to start drinking herbal tea, she knew that such a day would come.Ice is too precious in the south, she alone cannot keep this secret, she needs a strong backing.The Zhang family, the richest man in this area, not only has strong financial support, but also relies on the relatives of Dangzhi County, which is her first choice for cooperation.

"Master Zhang, does he know that the Li family and the Ruan family in the west have come to look for me a few days ago."

As soon as Xiaoruo said this, Zhang Fengling and Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but look at each other, surprised in their hearts, could it be that he was a step too late?
"Miss Xiao, I knew you were a smart person as soon as I saw you before." Zhang Fengling forced himself to calm down. His business for so many years was not in vain. If the Tzu Chi Church has reached any cooperation with the Li family or the Ruan family, it will be done today. They will not be received so calmly again. "We Ming people don't speak dark words. My servant bought the herbal tea from Tzu Chi Hall today. I don't know where you bought the ice cubes in it?"

The most important thing in doing business is honesty, and timid probing may be offensive.

"We can't afford ice cubes." Zhang Fengling's attitude was frank, and Xiaoruo didn't make any detours. "We did it ourselves."

Mrs. Zhang was both excited and unbelievable when she heard Xiaoruo say this. She didn't show it on her face, she was still dignified and generous like a rich mistress, but she couldn't help holding her master's arm tightly with her hand under the table.

self-made!what does that mean?It means that there is no need for long transportation time, it means that there is no need to worry about accidents on the business road, and it means huge profit margins!
Zhang Fengling could understand his wife's excitement, and he was forcibly restraining himself from showing ecstasy.He tried his best to stabilize the muscles that were trembling slightly due to excitement, and his voice was slightly stuttering: "Then, does Miss Xiao intend to sell the secret recipe for making ice cubes?"

Afraid of Xiaoruo's refusal, he immediately added: "The price is negotiable, a hundred taels, no, a thousand taels is fine!"

1000 taels, maybe ordinary people will not earn 1000 taels in their lifetime. You are lying if you say that Xiaoruo is not tempted at all, but this secret recipe can’t be sold. How can she explain that she can concoct a large amount of saltpeter in a short period of time?How can he explain that he can quickly reset the saltpeter crystals?Say she can control fire?Then I'm afraid she will be captured as a monster the next day.

She coughed a few times to control her ready-to-move heart, and reluctantly rejected the price offered by Zhang Fengling politely: "Master Zhang, this secret recipe has been passed down from generation to generation in my family, and my father has entrusted it, and it must not be sold."

Seeing the uncontrollable disappointment on the faces of Zhang Fengling and Mrs. Zhang, she said again: "Although the secret recipe can't be sold, it's not like this ice cube can't be sold."

"Is this true?"

"Of course it is true. It's just that my family's secret recipe for making ice is time-consuming and labor-intensive. The amount of ice produced every day is limited. Apart from making herbal tea, I can only sell you [-] catties of ice at most per day."

"Thirty catties..." Zhang Fengling thought for a while, although thirty catties of ice is not much, but it is enough to cope with the bitter summer of his wife. "Okay, thirty catties is thirty catties, so what's the price?"

"Thirty catties of ice per day. I will supply it from tomorrow until the end of summer in September. I will charge you 20 taels of silver every month."

This price is lower than Zhang Fengling expected, and the whole summer will not exceed 100 taels of silver. You must know that before buying ice in a commercial store, half a truckload of ice is only 400 catties, but it costs [-] taels.He nodded repeatedly in agreement with Xiaoruo's offer.

Xiaoruo didn't stop there, she continued: "Besides Baiyin, I have another condition, that is, you need to announce to the public that all the ice cubes in my Tzu Chi Hall come from your Zhang Mansion."

This remark made the Zhang family a little puzzled. Why did they buy ice and claim that the ice from Tzu Chi Hall came from his family?
