Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year
Chapter 89 Just sugar
Shen Ningning nodded.
She invited the old village chief into the house to talk.
The rest of the villagers gathered at the door and watched Shen Ningning and the old village chief sitting on the Taishi chair on the left and right.
The little guy's back is straight, his round little face is smiling, and the Black Wolf King and the others are lying at his feet, with a unique aura.
Everyone felt that the old village chief was paying more and more attention to Shen Ningning.
"Ning Ning, you have also seen the loquat trees in the village. They are growing very well. I believe they will bear the first batch of fruits in two or three months."
"We all rely on your blessing and blessing, so that our lives will become more and more promising."
"It's just that the weather is too hot now. Judging from the drought situation in previous years, it will have to be hot for at least two months before autumn begins, so everyone will have to spend more on weekdays."
"So, after some discussion, we decided to cut some of the unripe fruits and boil them into loquat candy, which is also our village's specialty."
"Then take it to the city and sell it to make some money for living. Do you think your family wants to come together?"
The little guy blinked his eyelashes, a little confused.
Loquat candy, is it expensive?
Her voice was soft: "Grandpa, village chief, how much money can you make just by selling candy?"
The little guy really doesn’t understand.
When the old village chief heard this, he laughed together with the villagers outside the house.
"Look at me, I forgot. You are still young and don't understand." The old village chief thought Shen Ningning was smart and independent.
So I subconsciously asked her to discuss the matter, but Shen Ningning was a child after all, so she should ask Grandma Qin about this matter.
Aunt Liu said with a smile: "Ning Ning, sugar is so expensive! One tael of loquat candy can be sold for 20 taels!"
so much! ?
Shen Ningning opened her eyes wide in surprise.
Afraid that she might not understand, Aunt Liu patiently said: "Think about it, is it easy for you to eat sweets on weekdays? Are those sweet things very expensive?"
The little guy's face swelled slightly as he silently recalled.
Is it expensive? she does not know.
There was a pile of osmanthus nectar in the fairyland, and she carried it out jar by jar.
Grandma will make delicious sugar water for her.
Including the sour plum soup that I cooked before, there is also brown sugar in it.
This thing is placed in an inconspicuous corner in the kitchen hall of Wonderland.
So Shen Ningning naturally didn't pay attention to it.
Who would have thought that sugar is still a precious commodity?
The little guy said, "Well, there are not many snack shops in the city, and the things they sell are expensive."
Aunt Liu smiled: "That's it! Our loquat candy can be used to dissolve when cooking. It can also be used as medicine and soup. It has many uses!"
Just use fruit to make sugar?
Shen Ningning suddenly figured it out.
No wonder Deng Fugui secretly gave her loquat candies to eat and looked at her expectantly.
It turns out that this thing is very expensive!
Even at the village chief's house, there are only a few pills, so they save on eating.
The little guy also remembered.
Last year, Qin Fangmei came back from Du Yuanwai's house and proudly told Shen Ningning that Du Yuanwai gave her a lick of sugar.
Qin Fangmei described the sweet taste vividly.
He also emphasized: "This is something only the nobles in the palace can afford!"
At that time, Shen Ningning didn't take it seriously.
When it comes to sugar, her wonderland is filled with jars like those used for pickling vegetables, and the quantity is almost overflowing.
I didn't expect it to be so precious.
Aunt Liu was still introducing: "Ning Ning, you are young and don't understand. In Cangyun Kingdom, the most expensive things are white sugar and brown sugar. Only the nobles and important officials in the court can afford them."
"Most of us ordinary people use loquat sugar and cinnamon honey. The more expensive ones are malt sugar, cane honey, and brown sugar."
Those snack shops mostly use honey boiled from sweet-scented osmanthus, and better shops use brown sugar.
Therefore, before the drought, Xiangyun Village had always made a fortune by selling loquat candy.
Shen Ningning made a calculation in her mind.
She thought for a while and said, "Grandpa, village chief, look at the fruits on my tree. Most of them are a little yellow, so they should be sweeter."
"If I agree to let you all use it to make sugar, how much money can I share in the end?"
The villagers were shocked, and the old village chief was also a little in disbelief.
"Ning Ning, you want to use all the fruits to make sugar? That's not appropriate. It's best to keep a batch of fruits. When they are ripe, you can make more sugar."
Of course Shen Ningning knew this.
But there are too many places where she needs money now.
Fairyland requires eating jade, and jade is so expensive.
As for the doctor's grandfather, she couldn't bring out too many medicinal materials at once, otherwise grandma said it would attract bad people's covetousness.
Therefore, she can grow a lot of loquats in her fairyland, but she doesn't care about the few fruits in this field.
It's just that she hasn't mastered the technology of refining sugar, so she still has to rely on the people in Xiangyun Village.
The little guy had round eyes and said firmly: "I want to make more money."
The old village chief was silent for a long time, chewing tea stems in his mouth.
He also knows that although Grandma Qin and Shen Ningning live in the mountains and have nothing to worry about, Shen Ningning is now studying in a private school and has a lot of money to spend!
It's normal for the little guy to think so.
So, the old village chief said: "You are a junior, and it is impossible for grandpa to take advantage of you."
"What we originally agreed upon was that each family would get a 10% dividend. If you pay more, we will give you 30%. Do you think it's feasible?"
Shen Ningning thought for a while and nodded decisively: "Okay!"
But when she does things, she must be strict and follow rules.
"Grandpa, village chief, let's make a contract."
The old village chief was stunned and said with a smile: "Ning Ning, can grandpa still trick you?"
The little guy said sweetly: "Grandma said that all agreements are more secure when they are stamped on paper."
"Not only responsible for me, but also responsible for the village chief grandpa and the uncles in the village."
"Otherwise, what if one day I don't produce so much fruit anymore and I still want to take 30% of the profit?"
These words made the villagers speechless, and even the old village chief paused.
That's right.
Shen Ningning is now relying on the prince. If there is any conflict in the future, it is really hard to say without a contract.
Besides, only after her reminder did everyone react.
What they fear most is not that Shen Ningning will regret it, but that people will be separated from each other. What will the other villagers do if they end up falling out?
A contract is a guarantee for everyone.
Sister-in-law Liu immediately said: "Village Chief, we haven't figured it out yet, Ning Ning, let's make a contract quickly and let's settle this happy event!"
The old village chief smiled and stroked his beard: "Okay! Jixiang, go and prepare pen and paper."
The black and white writing on the paper was written by the old village chief himself, and Shen Ningning was supervising and inspecting it with her little head tilted to the side.
After the contract was approved, the two of them signed and deposited their signatures, and representatives from the other villagers came forward to take their fingerprints.
After the contract was completed, every household had a smile on their face.
The old village chief was the happiest, smiling with rosy cheeks.
He probably thought of the prosperous days he lived in Xiangyun Village when he was selling loquat candies.
"Quickly, go to the entrance of the village and set off a bunch of firecrackers. Aunt Liu, you take a few wives to prepare a big pot of rice. Ningning, take Grandma Qin down and let us celebrate!"
Shen Ningning nodded immediately: "Okay!"
She rode on the back of the Black Wolf King and was about to go up the mountain to find her grandma.
Suddenly, Uncle Liu's son limped over and shouted in a surprised tone——
"Oops! The crazy scholar fell into the well!"
