"Did you receive a lot of rewards?" Su Ziling asked word by word.

"Yes," Shen Xingye nodded, "I estimate it to be several hundred taels."

Good, good, good!

Su Ziling gritted her teeth. She really sold it cheaply. This guy should be sold for more than ten or twenty taels.

Seeing her worried look, Shen Xingye asked cautiously: "How much silver per pound did you sell him for?"

Su Ziling squeezed out two words from between his teeth, "One tael."

"Pfft...hahahaha!"

"I knew this guy was a black-hearted, black-hearted guy who always takes advantage of others. Sister Xiaoqing, next time he comes, you should ask him for a hundred or eighty taels and give him a good beating."

One hundred and eighty taels?

Su Ziling was puzzled, "Are you sure he has so much money?"

After all, in Su Ziling's cognition, that guy has always been stingy.

"Uh..." Shen Xingye obviously also thought of it. Lu Yan was a stingy guy who lived a stingy life and liked to borrow money everywhere. Not only did he borrow money, but even Qing Yi and the others could not escape.

He would pay back Qingyi and the others, but his!!! That guy never paid back a single cent!

Thousands of miles away in Daliang, Lu Yan, dressed in black and wearing a bamboo hat, was sitting in a restaurant eating. Listening to all kinds of news coming to him, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and then the smile froze.

He tried to hold it back, but couldn't help it in the end. He sneezed several times in succession and muttered, "It turns out that you can't do too many bad things, otherwise it will easily make people remember you."

Shen Xingye pursed his lips, "Forget it, forget it. Next time, you can charge him 10 or 8 taels per catty. I heard you say that this oil is so rare and has so many benefits. It would be a big loss for you to sell it for only one tael."

Shen Xingye kept finishing off the enemies.

"By the way, how much is your chicken mushroom oil? I want all of it!"

Su Ziling was really confused, "How much do you sell your bamboo fungus for?"

Shen Xingye: "..."

At the price of bamboo fungus, he was afraid he couldn't afford much.

He looked at the jar, which was about half a catty (eight taels), plus the oil and seasoning. He tentatively asked, "How about we charge five taels of silver per jar?"

Su Ziling didn't say anything, but his heart was beating wildly. Five taels of silver?

My goodness, this young man from Beijing is really rich. If this thing is sold in the county, it would only cost five hundred coins at most, and in better condition, it would only cost one or two ounces.

It’s hard to say whether it can be sold or not, but if this thing is taken to Beijing, its value will skyrocket immediately.

Moreover, five pounds of chicken mushrooms can produce one pound of chicken mushroom oil, so this jar needs about two and a half to three pounds, and the cost is 45 cents. Add tea oil, and it's pure profit.

She was about to agree, but who knew?

Seeing that she was still hesitant to speak, Shen Xingye thought that she was not satisfied with the price, so he said again: "Okay, okay, I know five taels is a bit low, so how about six taels, six taels is fine? You know, I have been through a lot, and this thing can't stand any trouble. If anything goes wrong..."

"Okay!" Su Ziling agreed promptly and neatly.

Six taels! I made a fortune!

If you don’t agree now, when will you agree?

You know, the price she had in mind was only about one or two taels, but she didn't expect this silly boy to offer such a high price.

It's already six taels, you have to agree to it quickly. If you don't agree, what if he changes his mind later?

"Huh?" The rest of Shen Xingye's words were stuck in his throat. He agreed just like that?

He thought he couldn't get it without ten taels, but he didn't expect to get it with only six taels?

Hehe, he is really a little genius in business. After all, this is one of the four kings of mushrooms along with bamboo fungus, and he got it at such a cheap price. It's just a bit unfair to sister Xiaoqing.

Hearing Su Ziling's agreement, he stretched out his hand and said, "Long Strategy."

Changce understood and started to take out money.

Looking at the two people sitting at the table, grinning from ear to ear, no, two people with their own ulterior motives, he didn't understand what was so funny.

"There are ten jars here, which is sixty taels of silver. Silver is hard to come by, so I'll give you a banknote."

"Okay." Su Ziling was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. After getting the banknotes, he wanted to get up and leave.

Shen Xingye also wanted her to leave quickly, but thinking of the chicken mushroom oil behind, he rubbed his fingers and said, "Um, Sister Xiaoqing,"

"What's wrong?" Su Ziling covered his purse with his hands, looking as if he would not regret it.

Shen Xingye: "..."

Seeing him stunned, Su Ziling realized that she had overreacted. She smiled awkwardly, "What do you want to say?"

"Oh." Shen Xingye came back to his senses, "I was wondering if you could sell me all the chicken mushroom oil from now on?"

Sell ​​them all to him?

Su Ziling's eyes lit up. Of course he could. After all, no one else could offer such a high price except him.

"Of course, I'll send it to you when it's done, but," Su Ziling frowned.

This remark of hers frightened Shen Xingye so much that his heart was in his throat. He thought, was she going to raise the price?

At most, he could add another 1 tael of silver. If he added more, then...

If one tael isn't enough, he might consider two taels.

"Can you help me get some soybean oil? Lard can't be used to make this chicken mushroom oil. It will easily solidify. We don't have much tea oil at home. We need some soybean oil, but I heard that soybean oil on the market is also limited."

Hearing that she wanted soybean oil, Shen Xingye breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the price was not raised, it would be fine. "Soybean oil, OK, I'll get it for you when the time comes. You can come and get it next time."

"You don't have any at home now? In the past few days, the chicken mushrooms have started to appear one after another. This thing can't be stored. If it is left with the umbrella open, it will go bad in one day. So if you find it, you have to explode it quickly."

She was not exaggerating. The chicken mushroom is indeed not as easy to store as the green mushrooms. The buds can be kept for two or three days, but the ones that have opened their umbrellas really cannot be kept.

"In the mansion?" Shen Xingye scratched his head. He didn't know whether there was one in the mansion or not. He looked at Changce.

Changce: "I estimate that there are about ten kilograms in the mansion."

Su Ziling nodded, "Okay, ten kilograms is enough."

Shen Xingye: "?"

Chang Ce: “…”

"No, you took it all. I won't eat it?"

Su Ziling grinned, "You already have some chicken mushroom oil, or you can go to the market tomorrow morning and buy some lard. Lard is the best oil, and dishes cooked with lard are the most delicious and nutritious."

"Really?" Shen Xingye was skeptical.

Su Ziling continued to deceive, "Of course, there is no need for me to lie to you about this kind of thing."

"That's fine, Changce, go get it!"

Finally, Su Ziling happily left the county government office with ten kilograms of soybean oil. Along the way, he did not forget to urge his father, "Dad, hurry up, walk faster!"

She didn't breathe a sigh of relief until she could no longer see the county government office.

Father Su was confused. "No, why are we running so fast? There's no one chasing us."

Su Ziling touched the banknotes in his purse and said, "No one is chasing me, but I'm afraid he will regret it!"

"Yes!" Father Su suddenly widened his eyes, "How much is a jar of that chicken mushroom oil?"

Su Ziling made a six gesture to him.

Father Su stammered a few times, "Oh my goodness, this jar weighs six taels. What is the county magistrate thinking? Has he never eaten mushrooms before?"

After saying that, he lowered his eyes and looked at Su Ziling, "It's not good for you to fool the county magistrate like this, right?"

Su Ziling: "??"

"No, Dad, where are you from? Besides, I'm telling the truth, how could I be lying to him? Besides, he took the initiative to quote me the price."

Father Su scratched his head. "It seems so." He lowered his voice and pointed his finger. "Is there something wrong with him?"

Su Ziling: "..."
