"Ah? One tael of silver is really not expensive. Two taels of silver is acceptable."

What Xie Chengan didn't say was that if Su Mulan sold it, he would buy it for fifty taels of silver.

It doesn't feel expensive either.

"The cost of making this spicy cabbage is not small. Although cabbage and radish are not valuable, sugar and salt are precious commodities. Therefore, I want to price it at [-] cents per catty." Su Mulan thought.

"That's really cheap and a great deal! If a jar weighs five kilograms, it's only a hundred cents?"

Xie Chengan found it a bit incredible.

"It's just a side dish, the price is okay. And I'm just setting up a stall, at most a small shop."

"Why not open a big shop?"

Su Mulan looked at this young man a little speechlessly.

"The county is so big, and it's not a restaurant. How about a big shop? Now, the consumption level of the county must also be considered."

Xie Chengan sighed: "It's a pity that I haven't matured yet. Otherwise, you would go directly to Fucheng to do business and open a big shop. But now I am too incompetent to take care of you."

The capital is much larger and the consumption level is much higher.

But he was worried that it would be difficult for him to come forward and that he would be controlled by his father. I don't have that much freedom, so how can I take care of her?

If she, a little girl, opened a shop and was bullied, how could he help?

He suddenly felt regretful. If he had worked harder and passed the exam, would he have been more capable?

Su Mulan chuckled and said, "You have your heart. I have no determination to become rich. It is not that difficult to raise my younger siblings. I am doing a small business, which is enough."

She had packed up a jar of spicy cabbage and a jar of spicy radish and handed them to Ah Fu.

Ah Fu went to the carriage first with two jars in his hands.

Seeing that Xie Chengan wanted to pay for it again, Su Mulan quickly stopped him: "You already gave me money before I was paying attention years ago, so don't give me any more. This is just a side dish, and it's not worth anything in the first place."

"Even a small dish in a big restaurant is very expensive!" Xie Chengan stopped paying for it, "My mother also has a shop in Qingsong County, including a clothing shop and a grain and oil shop. If you encounter trouble, you can ask the shopkeeper for help. , or let them deliver the message.”

As he spoke, he told Su Mulan the name of the shop so that she could remember it.

"Thank you first. You shouldn't be in any big trouble."

Xie Chengan knew there was no reason to stay any longer, so he turned around and walked out.

He saw Su Mulan who was sending him off to the side, who was a head shorter than him. To his surprise, not only did she have a pair of big and intelligent eyes, but she also had fair and delicate skin that was rare in this country.

The sun shone on her face, which seemed a little transparent and unreal.

"What? What's on my face?"

Xie Chengan laughed loudly: "You are really a little cat, you don't know it."

Su Mulan quickly wiped her face with her hands: "Is there more?"

Xie Chengan secretly smiled. In fact, her face was fair and clean, how could there be any dirt?

It's just fun to tease the little girl.

After walking out of the courtyard, Su Mulan stopped seeing him off, waved to him, and walked back.

Xie Chengan jumped onto the carriage with a smile on his face: "Let's go."

Ah Fu shook his head. The young master's good mood was too obvious.

Su Mulan walked into the house and looked in the mirror. Really, this young man!

He actually learned to trick his sister.

In addition to the two jars of side dishes that Xie Chengan took away, Su Mulan was not idle during this "annual vacation". There were more than a dozen jars at home.

However, the first priority is to take Su Xiaobai to the county school to see if he can enroll.

"Our school does not accept enlightened children, has it already been enlightened?"

asked a serious-looking master.

Su Xiaobai was a little nervous, and he performed the student salute: "The student has been enlightened and has learned three hundred thousand things."

The master took a few more questions and saw that Su Xiaobai answered them fluently, which made him somewhat satisfied.

We also asked many freshmen who signed up this time to take the test together.

Half an hour later, Master read the test paper again, erased half of it and left half.

Su Xiaobai was assigned to Class C.

This surprised both Su Mulan and her sister. Class C, what a good thing!

It shows that Su Xiaobai’s foundation is pretty good!

This younger brother is really talented and has only been studying for half a year.

Su Mulan handed him Shu Xiu and gave him a small jar of spicy cabbage.

"Master Yan, these are some side dishes I made. It's not respectful. I just hope you can eat them freshly."

Su Xiaobai's grades were good, and Master Yan's attitude towards their siblings was also better.

"Since it's just a side dish, I won't accept it respectfully." Master Yan accepted it indifferently.

Both siblings were very happy to be admitted successfully.

"Xiao Bai, do you want to live in the county? You don't have to travel back and forth."

Su Xiaobai was a little embarrassed: "Sister, if you take the bullock cart back and forth, it only costs [-] yuan a month. But if we rent a house in the county, it will cost a lot."

"Nothing, we can take a look."

The two siblings went to Yahang again. When Yaren saw a pair of young siblings, he didn't take it seriously.

"I need a small yard, preferably with four rooms and a well. It's convenient for living."

As soon as Su Mulan opened her mouth, Yaren paid attention.

I didn't expect that I had made a mistake.

He quickly opened the book: "I remember there are five such yards. I wonder what price the lady wants?"

"What are their price ranges?"

"The best is six taels of silver a month, and the worst is two taels of silver."

Su Xiaobai smacked his tongue silently and quietly tugged on Su Mulan's sleeve, meaning it was too expensive.

Su Mulan's expression remained unchanged: "Take us all to see."

The Yaren got excited and asked the man to hitch a donkey cart and take the brothers and sisters to see it.

Su Mulan naturally liked the best yard.

About a dozen feet away, you'll find yourself facing the street. The courtyard is also quite exquisite, and there's also a well.

Ox carts and horse-drawn carriages can also pass in the alley!

Both siblings like this yard very much, but the price is a bit high.

It wasn't until noon that all the yards were seen.

The other courtyards are naturally more dilapidated, not so convenient, and are further away from the street.

Fortunately, they all have wells.

There is a courtyard among them, and there is a storefront for rent a few feet in front. Because the location is slightly remote, the rent is one to two to five cents.

Su Mulan calculated that if she rented the courtyard and the storefront, she would need a total of four taels of silver!

"I'll rent the yard and the front together for three to eight cents. What do you think?"

Yaren was secretly happy, it would be great to rent it out together.

But the price is really low.

It was originally the lowest price, and the house itself was still okay. It was just that the location was not very good, so I couldn't rent it out.

"Three liang and nine cents, little girl, look, I'm running around with you, but I still can't make a penny of silver. Everyone takes a step back, three taels and nine cents, bet one and pay three."

Su Mulan knew that this Yaren must also make some money, and it was not just a penny. But there is no point in blocking other people's financial paths.
