Chapter 797: The Road Is Only Half Built (2)

Chapter 797

"Because this year's fruit will definitely not be enough to sell, but we want our country of origin to be able to pay for it, so it is limited."

Lingle children who act as salesmen introduced.

"Ah......h

The people could not understand it.

"The ripe fruits have been picked, the eight-ripe ones have been picked in advance, the seven-ripe ones have also been picked, and now they are all piled up into several mountains, and there are only so many people in this city, they can't sell them at all, right?"

"Well, you can just watch it later," Ling Le decided to sell it.

"Ah, yes."

When he came, Ling Le and Ling Ruansoft were twelve years old, and now they are thirteen years old, especially Ling Le, who can clearly see that he is calm and calm in his demeanor.

Eight-ripe watermelons are also shipped out for sale, but they are sold at the nearest place, such as Jingzhou Fucheng on Shitian Road, or Yizhou Fucheng on Fifteen Tianlu Road.

Medium-ripe watermelons are sold farther away, and this price is also five times the price of medium-ripe watermelons!

In the local area, a ripe melon sells for 20 wen a catty, and a melon is about 5 catties, which can be paid for more than 100 yuan.

When you arrive at Jingzhou Mansion, it is 50 wen per catty, and it takes nearly 300 wen to eat.

Farther away, it takes a tael of silver to eat a watermelon.

If it is as far away as the capital, it is ten taels of watermelon, and it will never cost two prices!

Selling 100 watermelons in Shangjing, Yunxi made a net profit of 800 taels, of which 200 taels were the freight and discount rate on the way.

There are many rich people in Shangjing, and a hundred watermelons are not enough, at least about 50,000 watermelons can be sold.

More than forty thousand taels of silver were in hand.

Add the watermelons that are sold elsewhere, and then convert......

She made another windfall this year, earning 100,000 taels!

Yunxi flipped through the bill, and after a quick conversion, the corners of his lips couldn't help but rise.

"Let's build a road," Yunxi thought of the inconvenience at this time.

One hundred thousand taels on your body is also a waste.

She got back the 20,000 taels of the cost, and the 10,000 taels she gave to her two children and everyone, and 70,000 taels, she bought cement, sand and gravel, and hired workers, planning to build an official road that was convenient for transportation.

As soon as Yunxi's road construction came out, the people at the border were happy.

They didn't expect that watermelons and cantaloupe would sell so well! Unexpectedly, after Yunxi made money, he didn't take it himself, but built roads for their hometown!

For a moment, I rejoiced.

Even those who knew how much money Yun Xi had earned, and were dissatisfied, admired Yun Xi and Ling Heng.

So they boasted to Ling Heng and Yunxi!

The road was only halfway built, and the emperor, who was far away in Shangjing, couldn't sit still.

When the emperor realized that Ling Heng and Yunxi's reputation in the border pass was better than that of him, the emperor, he was worried.

Even knowing that the road had not yet been repaired, the emperor was in a hurry to recall the people.

The emperor thought that Ling Heng's family of four would probably drag, after all, now that border pass, it can be said that what Ling Heng says, the people will listen to it, how can they take him as the emperor in their eyes? !

And then almost a month later -

When the emperor heard that Ling Heng's family had returned to Shangjing, he still felt incredible.

Although the official road between the border pass and Shangjing City has been repaired, if you don't hurry up, it will be difficult to reach Shangjing City in a month, it can be seen that his holy decree has just been sent to the border pass, and Ling Heng and they will leave on the same day or the next day.

There was no delay, and there was no need to ignore him, the emperor.

After the emperor figured this out, he felt a little more comfortable, but he was still worried.
