Su Waner was so angry that she almost fainted. If they really were family, then why did it count as silver? However, she said, ”Our family is very prosperous, so we can't lose out on our sister-in-law.” As she said that, she clenched her teeth and took out three thousand silver and handed it over to Mu Rousang.
”Oh, elder sister-in-law, how can you be so kind? There's no one who can be as confident as the Hou Mansion!” However, a pair of small hands quickly snatched the silver taels and shouted at Chun Yan, ”Quickly go take a look! Why has Chunyi's little hoof been brewing tea for so long?”
Hearing that, Su Waner choked on her words, she did not want to go down. It was a real panic, Mu Rousang had never planned to make hot tea for the two of them.
”Don't be so courteous, the tea here is hard for ordinary people.”
Was he mocking her for not being able to entertain his guests and not even being willing to give him a cup of tea? Mu Rousang laughed lightly, and said: ”Eldest Sister-in-law doesn't know, my girls are not like the others, they are all clumsy!”
Su Waner no longer fought with Mu Rousang, and regardless of what happened, she would never be able to win against him.
”Young Mistress, the tea is here!” Chun Yi came in with a pot of tea. For a moment, a fragrance drifted out of the room.
Su Waner asked: ”The tea does smell like flowers.”
Chun Yi said casually: ”It's just that My Young Grandmother likes to drink it. She said that foetal chrysanthemum tea is the best way to vent one's anger.”
Su Waner's face froze, she did not know whether to drink it or not.
”Sister-in-law, you didn't explain clearly that day. This silver should have been sent over earlier.”
Mu Rousang didn't mind at all as she handed the three thousand silver taels to Chun Yi. ”Tomorrow, you can go with Xiao Tong and ask the manor to send a batch of silver carbon over.”
Although it's only ten years or so, it's still worth a few taels of silver per catty. Even if I don't earn any money, I will only use 10 taels of silver as my capital, and 3 thousand taels is equivalent to 300 catties. I will be more generous with that portion in our courtyard, and when you send people over, I will not send anyone to send it to Grandmother and Lord Father. ”
Su Waner laughed bitterly in her heart, Mu Rousang was really good at scheming. Not only did she take the official's silver as a favor, she even made a huge profit for nothing.
”Then I'll have to trouble you, sister-in-law!”
Even a household of 300 catties of carbon would have a weight of 60 catties. At that time, she could mix some high-quality carbon into the bag to fill it up. At the end of the year, she would still be able to put in more than 1000 catties.
Mu Rousang did not care about what Su Waner was scheming, she was still very happy to lose three thousand gold. Seeing Su Waner's indecisive expression, she said: ”Sister-in-law, aside from the sandalwood silver carbon, there are also high quality silver carbon s that are only worth two taels of silver each, do you want?”
Just as Su Waner was worrying about where she could get some good silver carbon, he smiled and said: ”This is the most fair price, how about I take a hundred catties first?” She was afraid that Mu Rousang would laugh, and said: ”We still have some in the house, after we finish using it, we'll go to Sister-in-law's place to purchase some more.”
”It's alright, it's fine. Of course, I can't make it difficult for my sister-in-law either. When the time comes, I'll fill in an extra twenty catties as a wager and give it to her as a gift.” Mu Rousang was used to doing this.
After Su Waner heard that twenty catties was worth a hundred silver taels, she felt more at ease after getting something from it. She said: ”I know that your silver carbon is not just good, but it really burns a little and there is a faint sandalwood smell in the air. If it's me who is in charge of this area from now on, I will go and purchase from my sister-in-law.”
Mu Rousang gave a bland laugh as she said, ”If sister-in-law can help me introduce you in the future, you will benefit greatly.”
She had already rented a warehouse in the outer city long ago. Even if it was used to store the wood that was produced in the storage, it would always be used to send someone to get it, so she did not spend much effort on it. What was the use of her learning that kind of martial arts? Mu Rousang said with absolute certainty: It would be best to flip the wall.
Su Waner did not know how many thoughts were running through her mind, but hearing that, she clapped her hands and said: ”Very good, my family also have some relatives that do business, I believe they do not lack money.”
Mu Rousang laughed: ”That's very good, no matter who you are introducing, as long as they buy my Con Blend, I will give you two hundred gold, how about it? Elder sister-in-law should know that the cost is not cheap. ”
Su Waner thought, she just wanted to say something and she would get rich, this was a good way to earn money, which family did not need to burn wood charcoal worth ten thousand taels of silver every year.
”Then I'll have to drag down my sister-in-law's blessings.” But he did not know that he had been led into a trap by Mu Rousang.
Mu Rousang laughed: ”You and I are sister-in-law, this kind of trivial matter is nothing!”
Firstly, she was a woman from a harem whose experience could not compare to Mu Rousang's. Secondly, she did not understand the ways of making money, and was not as rich and imposing as Mu Rousang.
