Chapter 329 This Matter Can’t Be Rushed_1
Standing in the courtyard of the rice shop, An Jing spoke with Shi Xiaolan and An Fu before she and Xiao Changyi entered the accounting room together.
The rice shop had plenty of rooms, and one was set aside as an accounting room where An Jing and Xiao Changyi could check the accounts if they came, or just sit for a while.
Meng Lanqing, the shopkeeper of the rice shop, also followed them into the accounting room.
As per An Jing’s request, Meng Lanqing hadn’t made himself look like a rough and fierce man this time, but instead had stuck on a small goatee, had darkened his naturally white face, and his naturally rosy lips were now somewhat pale, making him look at least twenty years older than his actual age.
An Jing looked at Meng Lanqing like this, said nothing, but asked, "How’s the grain purchasing going?"
Meng Lanqing replied respectfully, "Only thirty thousand catties were purchased. It’s not the time for rice harvesting now. Families that grow rice have essentially sold all the harvested rice already, we can’t buy that much."
An Jing also knew it wasn’t the time to buy rice from people, naturally, she wouldn’t make things difficult for Meng Lanqing; she just heard her say, "Take it slow, this can’t be hurried."
"Yes."
