Chapter 342: Chapter 342 Selling Meat (3)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Zhou Ying thought of the cow and sheep she couldn’t afford to raise and was happy to see this.

She then took a book and recorded the amount each family wanted to buy.

She even asked them to help advertise when they returned home, so those who wanted to buy meat would come to her.

She told them she would be sending the meat to them tomorrow.

After Gu Chengrui returned home, he looked at the people coming and going and asked around. After understanding their purpose here, he went to the kitchen to cook dinner.

After eating their fill, Gu Chengrui looked at a registration book and exclaimed, “Good lord, all of them are crazy. The minimum orders are 10 pounds of beef and a tub of blood tofu.”

“They earned quite a hefty sum after selling the chilies and sweet potatoes last year. There’s still a month before the new year, so isn’t it normal to eat some meat to celebrate?”

“That’s true; then let’s butcher one more cow and two more sheep. We’ll send some to Doctor Luo, Constable Tian, the county magistrate, and the people at the restaurant.

“We’ll also prepare some new year’s gifts.”

“Sure. How are things over there? If you are busy, I’ll ask Brother Tian for help.”

“We’re almost done. By the way, I’m thinking of bringing some chili over. Too many people have recently been suffering from frostbite, and chili water can help relieve some of it.”

“Are they going to pay?” Zhou Ying asked with a smile.

“You little money-grubber.” Gu Chengrui tapped her nose and continued, “Yes, of course. After all, we spent money on them.

“But I’m afraid we won’t be able to make any money from it.”

“It’s fine. It would be lying around in our storage anyway. It’s good to sell it now.”

“Okay, I’ll take a truckload of it tomorrow.”

After that, the two went to the interspace. Zhou Ying harvested another batch of sweet potatoes and planted the fields with wheat.

After Gu Chengrui finished chores in the grassy fields, he took out six sacks of chili.

The following day, the two of them parted ways after breakfast.

However, when Zhou Ying set off again this time, she brought Tian Jiawang with her and Er Zhuang.

After lunch, Zhou Ying returned to the village with five carriages when the sun was high in the sky.

Finally, they stopped under a big tree at the village entrance.

She gave candy to a few children who were running around the village playing hide-and-seek and asked them to help her summon the villagers.

After everyone had arrived, she led Tian Jiawang and the five coachmen and began to sell the meat according to the ordered amount.

When almost everyone got their orders, those who felt they had bought too little bought more when they saw that there was still a lot of meat.

Zhou Ying didn’t stop them. At most, she would just need to get more meat tomorrow.

Once she gave the green light, the extra cow and two sheep were all sold, and in the end, there was not even a sliver of meat left.

Zhou Ying had no choice but to say to the coachmen, “Everyone, when you return, tell Uncle Nian to slaughter another cow and two sheep. Send them here tomorrow morning.”

“Don’t worry, mistress. We’ll be going back now.”

“Go. Be careful on the slippery roads.”

After sending off the coachmen, Tian Jiawang said, “Zhou Ying, can you leave me some lard before the new year? There’s no oil at home.”

“No problem, but I can’t be sure how much we’ll have left.”

“It’s fine as long as we can cook something for the new year.”

“That’s not a problem,”

After returning home, Zhou Ying counted the earnings. There were almost 200 taels of silver, coming from five cows and ten sheep. It was much more profitable than selling them as a whole.

When Gu Chengrui returned and discovered that all the meat had been sold out, he commented happily, “Now, we don’t have to eat meat secretly anymore.”

“Indeed. I’ve prepared a hot pot with spicy soup tonight. Wash your hands, and we’ll be eating soon.” After Zhou Ying said that, she turned around and went to the kitchen.

After dinner, Gu Chengrui handed Zhou Ying 20 taels of silver and said, “These are the silver from selling the chilies. A few prominent families in town bought chilies for seasoning, so I sold them at a slightly higher price than usual..”
