Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 1312: Chapter 1111: The Dad Who Tricks His Son_1 Chapter 1312: Chapter 1111: The Dad Who Tricks His Son_1 It’s not just pigs, but also chickens and sheep.

These are all very common livestock, which are consumed everyday in large numbers. If we don’t raise enough of them, we won’t be able to meet market demand when the time comes.

“Do you think those people we slaughtered today will come back again?” Qiao Xiaomai wasn’t as optimistic as Tong Sanlang.

“They won’t come often, but they’ll surely return during the festivals,” Tong Sanlang was confident.

If the quantity is large, they balk at spending money, but what if they buy less?

During the New Year’s, would they really not be willing to even eat one pig?

“Alright, then you decide,” Qiao Xiaomai nodded.

The couple chatted idly while counting silver bills until dusk when they finally finished. The total was one million two hundred and twenty thousand taels of silver.

Qiao Xiaomai weighed the heavy hemp sack with one hand, “It’s a pity that this silver has to be sent to the Capital City again.”

The roads were constantly being fixed, and every day required spending silver. The moment they earned over a million in silver bills, they had to send it to the Capital City.

“Outsiders think we’re just swindling people, but in reality, this silver only passes through our hands briefly before we have to hand it over.”

“We are the targets set up by the Yang Family,” Tong Sanlang took over the hemp sack and casually slung it over his shoulder, “The Crown Prince leaves tomorrow; I’ll have him take it back to the Capital, so Uncle Fan doesn’t have to make another trip.”

“Good,” Qiao Xiaomai nodded.

So, the following day when Yang Hao set off, he took half a sack of silver bills with him. Yang Zheng and Yang Ye didn’t leave; they rode in the carriage, seeing Yang Hao and Feng Huihui off to Bailu Town before returning.

With two important figures suddenly gone, Qiao Xiaomai felt much more at ease.

What brought her even more joy came later: Madam Wang sent a letter, placing an order for a hundred jars of Floral Dew, depositing ten thousand taels of silver just like that.

Each jar was one thousand taels, so a hundred jars amounted to a hundred thousand taels.

A big business deal!

She immediately rushed to town in high spirits with her carriage to buy flowers, as the Floral Dew for these orders required different fresh blossoms.

After spending a few days making a hundred jars of Floral Dew, she went to town to find Shopkeeper He, entrusting him to deliver these to the Capital City.

Jiwei House.

Qiao Xiaomai parked her carriage behind Jiwei House and stepped through the courtyard gate, calling over a waiter to inquire about Shopkeeper He’s whereabouts before heading straight for his room.

In the room, Shopkeeper He was busy killing time by reading a storybook while cracking melon seeds.

“Skyfall Love Chronicles” had finally been published in text form after half a year of being known, with Yang Wenxiao commissioning the printing of five hundred thousand copies to be sold in Jiwei House. The sales were explosive, selling out in three days. Shopkeeper He’s family had snagged a copy for him and now he was engrossed in reading it.

“My, you seem pretty relaxed,” Qiao Xiaomai laughed as she walked in and saw him like this.

“Ah, here you are, take a seat,” Shopkeeper He hurriedly put down his seeds and novel upon seeing her, “Want some water?”

“No, thanks. Stop reading for a minute and take some people to the manor. I’ve prepared a hundred jars of Floral Dew; I need you to deliver them to the Capital City,” she instructed.

“Got it,” Shopkeeper He responded as he stood up, wiped his hands with a cloth, then opened a wooden box sitting on the table, “Master Yang sent a letter last night; I received it and was planning to deliver it to you today.”

“What letter?” Qiao Xiaomai took it.

Shopkeeper He shook his head. He had no idea what the letter from Yu Ang to Qiao Xiaomai contained.

Qiao Xiaomai took the letter, tore open the seal, and read the content.

It only contained a few lines, which she quickly scanned.

Then she got angry, her face turning beet red with rage, “Damn it all!”

F*ck f*ck f*ck!

Damnit!

It was the first time Shopkeeper He had seen Qiao Xiaomai in such a state, and his eyes widened as he held his breath and gingerly asked, “What happened?”

“See for yourself!” Qiao Xiaomai, livid, threw the letter in front of him, “Tong Sanlang that damn useless father got swindled out of ten million taels of silver!”
