Chapter 40 - 040 Good idea
"Grandpa, what do you think about having my uncle sell this wine for me? We can split the money we earn," Tian Sisi approached the Old Man and asked.
"It could work, but where did you get so much grain? Brewing alcohol consumes a lot of grain," the Old Man certainly knew his granddaughter’s idea was good, as Man Tong often traveled afar with wide connections, and as long as the goods were good, there was no worry about not being able to sell them. But brewing alcohol really does require a lot of grain.
"Grandpa Bai Yuan gave me a lot of grain, as much as a mountain, all inside here," Tian Sisi stretched out her left hand, pointing at the silver bracelet while speaking.
The Old Man had already gotten over his initial surprise and thus did not find it strange that the small bracelet could hold as much grain as a mountain. He thought for a moment and chuckled, "Then you can brew it. When your little uncle arrives, you can talk to him about it. But you need to find a helper; brewing is physically demanding, and you, a little girl, cannot handle it all by yourself!"
"Would it work to ask Brother Xinhua?" The first person Tian Sisi thought of was Tian Xinhua. Tian Manjin often worked outside, and Granny Zhao was getting on in years. She didn’t wish for the old lady to overexert herself, so Tian Xinhua was the best choice.
"Xinhua is alright, but if Xinhua helps with brewing, he’ll know about your secrets, and that’s not proper!" the Old Man furrowed his brows. Although Xinhua was a good kid and he trusted his nephew’s character, this was related to Ah Nan’s life. He dared not take the risk. He had seen too many cases where people betrayed their closest family to save their own lives or for promotion. Human hearts are unpredictable!
The Old Man was hesitant and indecisive, and so was Tian Sisi. In her past life, her cousin Tian Xinhua had indeed treated the original host well, but in her past life, the original host did not have the treasure that was the Jade Space. She dared not test the waters with her own life at stake. But without help, relying solely on her 10-year-old body, it was indeed very difficult to achieve.
"How about asking Dad for help?"
