C82 We're Going to Meet Again

We're going to meet again

"Boss, what do you mean? "Are you regretting that you gave too many betrothal gifts back then?"

"I meant that your status is more expensive, hehe …" Uncle Lee touched his forehead embarrassedly after he finished his sentence.

"Uncle Lee and my sister-in-law have such a good relationship... "How envious."

"We're already old wives, so don't make fun of us. It's just that the relationship between sister and Brother Xiao is like glue. However, it's also true that being able to marry such a good wife like you is truly fortunate."

Aunt Chun Xiang glanced at Xiao Yiming and smiled dubiously.

"Aunt is right. Won't it hurt to put such a good wife on your palm?" Xiao Yiming's face blushed and he was proud of it.

The few of them chatted and laughed. The donkey cart went to the Stone Dragon Town and quickly arrived at the biggest fruit market in town.

From what Uncle Lee said, most farmers would produce fruits that were sold here. After all, even if Large family had a set amount of fruits, it wouldn't be as expensive as the fruit market.

"Brother Xiao, sister, we're here." Uncle Lee stopped the donkey cart at the side. There were dozens of donkey cart parked on the ground. It seemed like there were quite a lot of people.

Luo Mannmann went down from the donkey cart and looked at the door. Before she could go in, she saw a crowd gathering and a huge commotion.

This so-called market was nothing more than a large courtyard built out of tiles. The interior was rather large, and from time to time, there would be villagers carrying loads of food in and out, or carrying baskets of fruits in.

The few of them looked at each other and stepped inside. There were many villagers and a large table was placed in the middle of the room. Some of them were collecting fruits, some were overestimating themselves, and some of them were settling debts.

The floor was covered with mats of apples, oranges, bananas, and pears.

"Come, come, come. Let's buy the fruits. The apples are worth 3 taels of gold per catty, the oranges are worth 2 taels of gold per catty, and the bananas are worth one catty. Everyone, line up and come here to receive the money." A rough voice called out from time to time.

As more and more fruits were piled up on the mat, the number of villagers lining up to sell their fruits gradually decreased. The surrounding area quieted down, and only the crackling sounds of abacus could be heard.

One by one, the villagers who had come with the burden on their shoulders went out with their spatial and temporal baskets, happily counting their money and leaving the village.

After waiting for a while, Luo Mannmann finally caught up with the fruit vendors. One of them was a middle-aged man with a tanned complexion, the other was the obese women, and the last one was a young scholar.

Judging from the similarities between their brows, they must be a family.

"Girl, you guys are also fruit sellers, right? Alright, there aren't many people left now, so you can bring your fruits in." women asked in a very ordinary tone.

Seeing that the others had not moved, women's face turned serious, and her voice rose a little, "I say, do you want to sell any fruits? Quickly pick some fruits and bring them in."

"Um, big sis, we left in a hurry today and didn't bring much apples. How about this, how about this? Can you help us see how much this basket of apples can sell for?" Sis Chun Xiang smiled as she pointed to a basket of apples that Luo Mannmann was holding in her hand.

Who knew that women didn't even raise her head as she pointed at the pile of apples on the ground and said, "Do you see that? There is a card on top of all the fruits with a price written on it."

"Big sister, we naturally saw that price. However, our apple is not ordinary. Are you sure you don't want to see how much it is before you take it?"

Luo Mannmann took a step forward and placed the basket of apples on the table. Since her voice was crisp and beautiful, women's complexion looked much better.

Just as he was about to measure the apple basket, the young scholar shouted excitedly, "Mother, Father, look, there are words written on the apple! Happy New Year, a lot of money, and good luck. It's so exquisite. Sigh, how did you guys grow it? "

"This little brother has good eyesight. This is called Lucky Apple. Not only does it look like it has words on it, it tastes especially sweet and crisp. How about you guys try it?"

Although the man and woman looked calm, Luo Mannmann quickly caught a glimpse of the surprise in their eyes. They pretended to be calm in order to lower the price.

"There's no need for a taste test. Girl, just tell me what price you want." The woman asked in a faint voice. When the young scholar heard this, he quickly took an apple and wiped at the corner of his clothes before taking a bite.

"Mom, it really is much more delicious than ordinary apples." After saying that, he smiled at the woman, "Mother, would you like to try one too?"

"Tian, don't cause trouble. When adults speak, children, don't interrupt."

"I'll be 15 after the new year. I can already get married, and I'm still a child …" The young scholar made a face in dissatisfaction.

"Cough cough cough. Sister, let's get down to business." "For the average apples, we accept them according to the price of three pieces of silver. You have a special price, how many do you have, I'll take all of them. How about one kilogram of apples per eight pieces of rice, what do you think?" The brawny man gave a seemingly reasonable price.

8 gold taels for a catty, Aunt Chun Xiang was excited, it was a full two times more than the market price, looks like this year's income was more than doubled.

"This big brother here is not some ordinary apple, he can go along the high-end route and make a ton of money just by supplying it to the rich people, aren't the lucky ones the ones looking for money?" "What do you think?"

Luo Mannmann raised the price at the right time, only to see the strong man pained. "I'll give you another 2 gold coins. I can't have any more."

"Looks like there's no chance for us to work together." Luo Mannmann shrugged her shoulders indifferently, pointed to the apples and said:

"Happy New Year selling 8 gold taels for 1 gold tael, good luck 15 gold taels, money 20 gold taels, if you can see it, we can bring the goods over anytime."

Luo Mannmann automatically lowered the price for the wholesale to someone else. Who knew that the other party was not satisfied?

"20 gold taels a catty, why don't you just rob them? Why are there so many different types of Apple characters? " women shouted with a darkened face, "Let's go, let's go. Our temple is too small for a great Buddha like you."

"If you don't want it, then don't want it. Why are you pushing people away?" Aunt Chun Xiang was slightly angry. With this attitude, she didn't want to work with this family.

"Erm, sister, can you leave this basket of apples? Let me think about it for a few days." The brawny man rubbed his hands in embarrassment and hesitated. His intuition told him that this was a good deal.

"Sure, if you want to buy our fruits, you can come to the village's Lee Family to find them." Luo Mannmann took the apple out of the basket and left with the empty basket.

The moment they went out of the door, they saw two attendant whispering in the corner, "Quick, inform the Young Master that Miss Luo is coming to town."

Qian Mansion

The vermilion door was open everywhere. The bronze bell on the door was emitting a dazzling golden light in the late autumn. Two stone lions were standing at the entrance. They were awe-inspiring and majestic, indicating the extraordinary grandeur of the manor.

Two large words were written on the gold plaque, "Qian House".

The mansion was extremely bustling, with winding corridors and magnificent pavilions. It was grand and majestic, with a beautiful scenery that revealed its nobility everywhere.

A faint incense was burning in the incense burner in the study, lingering in the spacious study.

Qian Jingui, who was wearing a silver-grey luxurious robe, opened the bill in front of the rosewood desk and read it carefully.

The Qian house's business was booming now, and it rose to another level. It was one of the best in the Stone Dragon Town, and he had to go to other towns to develop it as well, to spread the glory of his clan's business.

Xiao Hei Niu, if you could join hands with me at the mall, how good would that be? Thinking of the woman he liked, Qian Jinguijun's face turned soft. At this moment, he heard someone knocking on the door.

"Come in." Qian Jingui closed the account book and played with the teacup on the table.

A grey robed attendant ran in and asked anxiously, "Young Master, did Miss Luo come to town?"

"Really? She finally decided to show up. Where is she? Hurry up and prepare the carriage to lead the way." Qian Jingui stood up excitedly with a face full of joy.

"Miss Luo just came out of the fruit market. I'll arrange it immediately."

Qian Jingui looked at attendant's departing figure and smiled, "Mannmann, we're going to meet again."

In the past month, he had ordered a few attendant to check every road in the town every day. As long as there was any news of Luo Mannmann, he would inform him immediately.

After Qian Jingui got on the carriage, he went straight to the fruit market. As soon as he entered the door, he could smell a strong aroma of fruits and the ground was filled with fruits.

The fruit seller's family was still chattering, "Who were those people just now? Look at their honest and honest clothing. They talked like they were cheating, even selling for 20 taels of gold. Why don't they just snatch the money?"

"Damn woman, what do you know? "That girl has a point. Wealthy people only seek fresh fortune, they don't lack money. Our family has been collecting fruits for more than ten years, but we haven't been able to get rich yet. Perhaps this is an opportunity." The brawny man played with the apple in his hand, his eyes glowing with a golden light.

"You say it's easy, but how could we have that much money to buy it? Come on, there are so many swindlers around these days. Head, you'd better open your eyes. It's not easy to earn money here, so don't be fooled by others!"

"I don't know if those people are lying or not. I only know that the apple is not only good to look at, but also delicious." The little scholar interrupted with his head tilted.

The family discussion was so heated that even Qian Jingui didn't notice when he walked in, "Boss, did a girl come here just now?"

"Girl?" This clear and bright voice made the couple raise their heads upon hearing it. In front of them stood a man dressed in a luxurious silver-grey robe. He had a refined temperament, a jade crown, and a handsome appearance.

When would the rich young masters visit their fruit market? Could they be here to buy fruits in large quantities?

Thinking of this, the woman smiled and said politely, "Young Master, are you here to buy fruits? "Come here, it's all here. Pick any one of them."

Qian Jingui didn't have the time to talk with them. He signaled attendant, who immediately went up and asked:

"My family's Young Master is asking you guys why did those four people come here? They are a young lady with big eyes and a handsome young man, as well as a middle-aged couple."

"Ah, young master is asking about those four people? They're here to sell this apple. " The brawny man showed him the apple with the word on it.
