Things have already happened, and in such a feudal context, Wen Shutang is helpless. All she can do is take care of herself.

"Mr. Pei, don't be too sad. After all, you once really regarded Pei Yu as a brother." Wen Shutang consoled him in a low voice.

Pei Sheng was stunned. He didn't expect that Wen Shutang could see what he was thinking. He shook his head and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"I'm fine. I just thought of something else. I've sent someone to send Ayu to a farm in the suburbs. Even though something bad happened, I grew up with him after all."

Wen Shutang nodded. In addition to Pei Sheng's swift and decisive methods, he still retained some kindness in his heart. People like him can last the longest.

At the same time, she feels most at ease working with such people.

Song Zhoubai also noticed that something was wrong with his friend, and immediately stepped forward to change the subject: "Okay, let's not talk about this. Ah Sheng has taken over all the family businesses now. You two are both so capable, why don't you talk about doing business together?"

There was a teasing tone in his voice. He first glanced at Pei Sheng and then turned his head to look at Wen Shutang.

Hearing this, Pei Sheng nodded slightly and looked up at Wen Shutang: "I came here today to talk about this matter. Madam Wen is smart, and Pei is willing to cooperate with Madam Wen."

"Mr. Pei is very capable, and I am naturally willing to deal with smart people." Wen Shutang said with a smile.

She had originally helped him in order to do business with Pei Sheng, who could become an imperial merchant in the future. Now that Song Zhoubai had brought it up first, she just went along with the topic.

"I heard Mr. Pei talk about the areas of Pei family's business before. I think we can focus on the tea business next." Wen Shutang expressed his idea without changing his expression.

Hearing her words, not only Pei Sheng was stunned, but even Xiao Yizhuo beside him showed a hint of surprise.

Tea? That thing is very precious. Only the nobles in the capital would use it. What can be sold in this small town? Would anyone buy it?

Apparently Pei Sheng also had this concern, and a hesitant look appeared on his face.

Before he could open his mouth, Song Zhoubai spoke first, staring at Wen Shutang's face cautiously.

"Madam Wen, are you wrong? Tea is so expensive. Can we afford it in this small town?"

Pei Sheng nodded, agreeing with what Song Zhoubai said.

Wen Shutang glanced at the two of them and continued in a leisurely tone: "I'm not wrong, it's tea. How much can the nobles have? Earning their money is like snatching food from a tiger's mouth."

She paused and raised the corners of her lips: "Tea is something that is meant to be sold to the people. What we need to do is to ensure that every citizen can drink precious tea."

Are you kidding me? How big is the group of common people? The market is so big, how can business be difficult? These two people were staring at the nobles.

After hearing what Wen Shutang said, Pei Sheng felt that it made some sense, but he still felt that it was too risky and not very appropriate.

"This is a bit ill-considered. Although there are many people, if tea is sold too cheaply, wouldn't it be a loss?"

"We win in quantity, with small profits but quick turnover." Wen Shutang saw that Pei Sheng was still hesitating, pursed his lips and thought for a while before speaking again.

"How about this, I have some tea here, Mr. Pei, take it back to Baiping Town and sell it, one tael of tea for 100 coins. Wait five days and see the results before deciding whether to do this business or not."

Pei Sheng fell silent after hearing this, thinking that this method was feasible. After all, it would not cause any substantial harm to him. Moreover, if it really succeeded, he might be able to make a lot of money.

Having made up his mind, Pei Sheng looked up at Wen Shutang and asked carefully, "How much tea do you have? How much silver do you want to give me?"

"I'll give you three pounds first, and sell it to you at the price of one hundred and two taels." Wen Shutang said, touching his chin.

The last time she saw tea on the shelf, a bag should be about 100 grams, and three pounds would be fifteen bags. Anyway, Pei Sheng has become the head of the Pei family, so she can take the tea in the space at will.

This price was within Pei Sheng's budget, so he nodded: "Okay, can I take it now?"

"Okay, wait a moment and I'll get it for you." Wen Shutang responded and turned to look at Xiao Yizhuo, signaling him to stay here.

Xiao Yizhuo felt something was wrong ever since he heard Wen Shutang say that there was tea at home. He was very familiar with the house and knew where everything was and where the furniture was placed.

How could he not know that there were three kilograms of extra tea for no reason?

After receiving Wen Shutang's eye signal, Xiao Yizhuo was confused but still had no expression on his face.

Wen Shutang walked to the small warehouse, closed the door, closed his eyes and entered the space, quickly walked into the cabin and took a look at the blackboard, and sure enough, he found it written on it.

"Random task 'Help Pei Sheng become the head of the family'

OK

Unlocking the modern beverage area. ”

Wen Shutang was delighted and immediately turned around and walked towards the shelf where the tea was placed.

Sure enough, she saw bags of tea on the shelves. She took a closer look and discovered that there were a wide variety of teas, including West Lake Longjing, Wuyi Rock Tea, Biluochun and other well-known teas.

Wen Shutang immediately took out more than a dozen packages of West Lake Longjing tea from the space. She opened the packages and poured the fragrant tea leaves into the sacks that had been prepared in advance.

The weight in grams was marked on each bag, which made it convenient for Wen Shutang to count.

Three pounds is exactly fifteen bags. After hiding the tea bags, Wen Shutang carried the sacks from the small warehouse to the yard and handed the bag to Pei Sheng.

"This is three catties of tea, a total of three taels of silver. Mr. Pei can go back and check the amount before giving the silver. I'm not in a hurry."

Pei Sheng took the bag, opened it and saw that it was full of tea leaves with a refreshing aroma. He was a little surprised.

"These tea leaves are fragrant and of high quality. They can be sold at two taels of silver per tael of tea. Madam Wen, do you really want to sell them so cheaply?"

"Of course, small profits but quick turnover, Mr. Pei, believe me, you will understand what I mean in five days." Wen Shutang patted the dust off his hands and said with a smile.

Pei Sheng felt relieved when he saw how confident she was. He nodded and said, "Okay, since Madam Wen has said so, I will go back and give it a try."

After he finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at the servant, who immediately took out a cloth bag from his waist and handed it to Wen Shutang.

"Madam Wen, please keep it. This is three taels of silver. I will not keep any more of it. Goodbye." Pei Sheng handed the tea to his attendant, bowed goodbye to Wen Shutang, and turned to walk out.

Song Zhoubai stared at the two of them in a daze. He came to his senses only after Pei Sheng left. He said goodbye to Wen Shutang and left the yard.

Xiao Yizhuo sat on a stool and saw that Wen Shutang really took out so much tea from the small warehouse. The doubts in his heart became stronger. His eyes fell on Wen Shutang's face with inquiry in his eyes.

Where does this tea come from?
