Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

Chapter 562 Ouch, my money!!!

"Oh, I think too much. This person is always greedy. He earned more yesterday and less today, so he feels unbalanced."

After saying this, Xu Han slammed the table and still couldn't control her emotions. "That's the truth, and I understand the reason, but it doesn't mean I can't have no emotions at all because of this! It really makes me mad.

Oh my, my money!!!"

Xu Han covered her heart with her hand, her face full of pain.

Lu Chuan looked at his wife and laughed at her, but he still comforted her, "Okay, don't be sad yet. Maybe tomorrow will be even worse than this."

Xu Han was stunned when she heard that, and an expression of wanting to cry but not crying was stuck on her face. She felt even more distressed when she heard Lu Chuan's words.

What should I do? I really want to beat him up. Although what he said is true, can't you please not say it now? Can't you say it tomorrow?

Don't expect this straight man to comfort you, because the words he says will make you mad to death.

Lu Chuan may have realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he touched his nose and was at a loss.

After a while, under Xu Han's death gaze, he said, "Well, I'll go to the shop first to see if there's anything I can help move."

After saying this, he ran away without waiting for Xu Han to speak.

Xu Han was left alone, feeling sad. After she recovered from the sadness, she immediately adjusted her state of mind and calculated the total income for the day.

After a moment, she looked at the total data on the paper and smiled slightly. She earned a total of 25 taels of silver today. Although it was much less than yesterday, it was still within her acceptable range.

Although there seemed to be a lot of people today, the things they bought were not as much as yesterday.

Yesterday’s dry goods accounted for the majority. After today’s peak period, Xu Han looked at the remaining goods in the shop and had some idea in her mind.

Although it is painful to get this result now, it is still acceptable.

After settling the bill, she stopped worrying about it. She stood up, put away her things, and walked into the shop.

Seeing Zhu Chuntian, he asked, "Where is the master?"

"Madam, the master has taken Han Qi to the nearby village to harvest sweet potatoes."

Xu Han raised her eyebrows slightly. "How long have you been gone?"

"It's been a quarter of an hour. I guess we should be there by now."

"Well, I'll go over there and take a look. You guys go ahead and get busy."

After Xu Han finished speaking, he turned and left. The largest shop was in the center of the county town and had a particularly good location. To be honest, it was a bit of a waste of resources to use it as a temporary workshop.

But now it can’t be rented out, and Xu Han thought that since it’s just sitting empty, she might as well use it for something.

When Lu Chuan came back at noon today, he told Xu Han that it would not be possible to harvest sweet potatoes relying solely on the family's one horse-drawn carriage and one ox-drawn cart, as the cost of renting a car was too high.

The family had limited vehicles, so when harvesting sweet potatoes, he simply did what they had discussed yesterday.

Just tell the people in the village that after washing and selecting the sweet potatoes, they can send them to the shop themselves, and there will be special people to collect them.

The washed sweet potatoes are delivered directly, so the people in the shop only need to rinse them once and then cut them into pieces and steam them.

Of course, the price of washed sweet potatoes is relatively higher, one cent for two pounds.

If unwashed sweet potatoes were sent over, it would cost one cent for three pounds. After hearing this price, almost all families chose to wash them before sending them over.

At the same time, when Lu Chuan went to the nearby villages, he told them to supervise each other. If the sweet potatoes sold by the villagers were inferior, then no sweet potatoes from this village would be accepted.

After hearing Lu Chuan's words, those who originally had some ideas no longer dared to do so.

In this era, most people in a village have the same surname. In fact, every household is more or less related to each other. There are also clan leaders and ancestral halls, so it is easy to control them.

So as soon as these words came out, the village chief immediately promised that he would definitely supervise the inspection and ensure that the sweet potatoes sent would definitely not be rotten or bad, and they would pick the biggest and best ones to send over.

Lu Chuan said that there is no need to pick the biggest and best, as long as they are not broken or rotten, they will all be acceptable.

Upon hearing this, the village chief smiled broadly and repeatedly assured that it would be delivered as requested.

When Xu Han came back, after listening to Lu Chuan's arrangements, she praised him again and again, saying, "Not bad, not bad. You can now apply what you have learned to other situations."

It is better to buy sweet potatoes that have been cleaned directly. Although the price is a bit higher, it saves trouble.

In addition, Xu Han suggested yesterday that they deliver the goods to the door, which would directly save a lot of manpower.

As she was thinking, she had unknowingly walked to the shop used to collect sweet potatoes. At this time, the women in the house had already started cleaning the shop.

Mrs. Li saw her and called out, "Madam is here."

"Well, you guys go about your business, don't worry about me."

She first walked around the shop by herself, and when she saw that it was almost clean, she turned around and went upstairs.

The upstairs was not needed now, so Xu Han did not ask them to clean it. She looked at the dusty room, sighed, and thought to herself, "The house still needs someone to take care of it all the time. It's only been a few months, and it feels a little more shabby than before."

She opened the window, stood beside it and looked at the street across the street. She began to wonder what kind of business she could start with such a good location and such a large shop.

Would it be too much of a loss if I rented it out directly? After all, it's hard to find a house in this area. With this location, you can make money no matter what you do.

After thinking about it for a while, I still can't figure out what to use it for, so let's not think about it for now.

The most important things right now are the mountain product shop and the fruit wine shop that has not yet opened. The most important thing is to open these two shops first and then make the sweet potato wine.

As the saying goes, you can't get fat in one bite, so let's take it slow. The most important thing is that she doesn't have any extra money now.

It would definitely cost a lot of money to open this big shop, and she couldn't do it with her current ability.

The first two shops, whether they are already opened or not, do not require too much cost and can be supported by one's own small treasury.

This won’t work. It won’t work. I don’t even have enough money for the initial investment.

We have to start harvesting sweet potatoes later, so we have to keep some money in our hands.

At this moment, Xu Han was actually a little grateful that she had earned so much money during the disaster year.

The money from selling ginseng before the disaster, plus the money earned from his own business, the money given by the Taoist priest, and the money awarded by the palace, all added together, he had accumulated his current fortune.

If it weren't for this money, Xu Han would probably still be struggling to have enough food to eat!

It is precisely because of the support of this money that she can now afford to buy a shop, hire servants, and even open the shop.
