Chapter 20(1/2)

Early tomorrow morning, Zhao Ce will prepare to go out of the city to get sugar in exchange for money.

This 400 Wen of raw sugar is converted according to the previous ratio.

It is estimated that I can get more than three taels of silver.

This is simply a huge profit!

But he couldn't buy too much raw sugar at that grocery store at once.

This would definitely arouse the shopkeeper's suspicion.

Zhao Ce is planning to go to someone else's grocery store today to buy more candies.

However, it is not an option to continue like this for a long time.

It is too late to plant beets now.

In the case of sugar cane...

Next month is August, just in time to plant.

But I only have two acres of low-grade farmland left at home, and I can't grow much sugar cane.

Before that, we have to think of ways to acquire more land.

Zhao Ce fell into sleep while thinking.

Early the next morning.

Because there was too much sugar cooked last night.

Zhao Ce was worried that there was not enough drying time.

The two of them got up early when the rooster crowing next door did not crow.

After washing up, Zhao Ce looked at the sugar in the pot and twisted a few sugar in his hand.

It felt like it was almost done, so I breathed a sigh of relief.

Put all the sugar in cloth bags.

After eating vegetable porridge with a lot of rice, the little girl also used the white flour Zhao Ce brought back yesterday to bake two cakes.

Zhao Ce was in a good mood after eating this breakfast.

Because she is afraid that her husband will give her food directly.

Su Cai'er consciously tore a small piece of pancake by herself.

Then he took credit and said: "Husband, I eat the pancake."

Zhao Ce looked at her small piece of dough that could be finished in one bite.

He smiled and said, "Little clever guy."

Su Cai'er seemed to think she was very smart and smiled at him.

After cleaning up, Zhao Ce thought of the day the little girl ate sugar and looked cute with her big eyes.

He left another small bag of sugar out.

It's okay to let the little girl drink water.

Put this small bag of sugar away.

Take the little girl with you to get a clean cloth, wrapped bread and water.

Zhao Ce is preparing to leave the city again.

This time, because he got up earlier, Zhao Ce also went out earlier.

The little girl sent him to the door as usual and said to him: "It's too dark, husband, you have to be more careful when walking."

Zhao Ce nodded and said, "Okay."

"You should be more careful at home."

On the way, I hardly saw anyone walking around in the village.

But when passing by some people's homes, I could hear the sounds of children crying and the voices of adults talking.

Zhao Ce took a breath of the fresh ancient air and walked towards the city full of motivation.

When he reached the city gate, the city gate had just opened.

When we arrived in front of yesterday's grocery store, there was an oil lamp lit inside.

The workers outside are removing the door panels and opening the store.

Zhao Ce thought for a while and turned to another grocery store in the city.

I spent all the coins I had on myself to buy raw sugar.

After finishing the shopping, I returned to the grocery store and traded with yesterday's shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper of the grocery store saw Zhao Ce coming and greeted him enthusiastically.

He asked someone to bring the white sugar to his employer yesterday.

Received many awards.

The host also said that any amount of sugar will be delivered.

This reward is huge.

So when I saw Zhao Ce, I smiled more lovingly than when I saw my biological father.

"Master, did you bring some candy today?"

Zhao Ce nodded and said, "I told my relative last night and he thought my proposal was okay."

"I said I would go back and ask the sugar man if he would like to cooperate with me."

When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately beamed.

"I knew it would work."

"I'm not bragging, the one with the most reasonable price in this city must be ours."

Zhao Ce also smiled and said: "Of course it is."

"Otherwise I wouldn't have thought of coming to the shopkeeper in the first place."

The two exchanged business blows for a while before starting to talk about the highlight of the day.

Zhao Ce took out the cloth bag in his hand and said: "The shopkeeper..."

"This is a gift from a relative of mine. I originally wanted to take it as a gift for visiting relatives elsewhere."

"I want them all out."

"This time, you have to give me a better price."

After Zhao Ce finished speaking, he handed over the bag in his hand.

The shopkeeper took it and said with a smile: "Of course the prices are reasonable."

He weighed the weight in his hands and felt quite satisfied.

Yesterday's sugar was good, but too little.

I weighed it today and found it was much more than yesterday.

As usual, I walked to a well-lit area and checked it again.

He twisted two more pills with his hand, put them in his mouth and tasted them again.

Cai praised: "The quality is good."

I took it back and weighed it.

The shopkeeper thought about it and said, "It was originally four taels and six coins."

"But the young master is also a cheerful person, and the shop is willing to pay five taels of silver..."

"Why don't you leave your name, sir, so that we can find you easily?"

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Ce with bright eyes.

Naturally, they want to be the only ones with such a good thing.

When the time comes, this young man will be able to supply them stably, even if the quantity is not large.

They are also acceptable.

Zhao Ce thought about it and felt that what the shopkeeper said did make sense.

but……

It's hard for him to keep his real name now.

After thinking for a while, he said: "I'm here, Su Yun'an from Sujia Village."

"It turns out to be Mr. Su."
