I'M THE FARMGIRL YOU CAN'T MESS WITH

Chapter 269: On the Road

Editor: Atlas Studios

Qi Haoran was thrilled to hear Mu Yangling call him ‘Brother’. Just as he was about to ask her to repeat it a few more times, Mu Yangling had already turned around to talk to Fan Zijin.

She told Fan Zijin about the few merchants. She didn’t mention that Butler Chen had the intention to stop the merchants from going north. She only said that a few merchants wanted to import goods and sell them south.

Given Fan Zijin’s shrewdness, it would definitely occur to him to ask about this when he saw them. Therefore, there was no need for her to play the bad guy here.

When Fan Zijin heard that a customer had come to ask about the diced rabbit meat, he was in a good mood. Since no one had approached him about this so far, he’d thought that they could only do the diced rabbit meat business themselves.

This was his first business. Even if he did not earn a lot now, he was still very concerned. He had originally planned to expand the workshop and build another workshop in Hanzhong Prefecture. This way, he would be able to produce more diced rabbit meat. When the time came, he would let the merchants from the south sell it. This way, he could reduce his costs by a lot.

However, he had never seen anyone come to ask. He’d thought that it was because the diced rabbit meat had just been launched recently and the profits had not yet been enticing enough to drive those merchants to come. Now, it seemed that the timing was just not right.

When Fan Zijin realized that Butler Chen was behind this, he was so angry that he almost fainted. However, Butler Chen was still in the south at this moment. Even if he wanted to flare up, he couldn’t find a target.

After playing to her heart’s content for two days, Mu Yangling borrowed 400 taels of silver from Fan Zijin. Together with the 100 taels of silver she had on her, she found the vendor who sold mutton skewers and discussed buying sheep with him.

“1 tael 500 copper coins per sheep of my choice. What do you think?”

The peddler said with a bitter expression, “But Miss, sheep can usually be sold for two taels of silver each. You’re too ruthless to directly bargain down half a tael of silver.”

Smiling, Mu Yangling said, “The sheep you raise can’t compare to the ones raised by the Hus. The price you mentioned is from the past. Now, one tael of silver in Hanzhong Prefecture can buy a sheep. After I buy it, I still have to rush south to sell it. 1 tael 500 copper coins is a fair price.”

The peddler was silent for a moment before asking, “How many are you buying, Miss?”

“300.”
