Chapter 302: Almost Got Hit (Sixth Update)_1
"Uncle, how much you charge is your business," Yang Ruxin waved her hand, "for me, it’s one copper coin per jin from you." Since sales haven’t started yet, it was settled for now, but if she really does partner with Baiwei Restaurant in the future, she’ll have to sign a contract with Uncle Lu as well.
"This..." Lu Gao’s face was full of incredulity, but seeing Yang Ruxin’s resolute expression, he didn’t refuse further, "Alright then, when the harvest is ready, I’ll deliver it to your home." With such a high price being offered, he’d feel embarrassed if he didn’t do something in return.
"That’s settled then." Yang Ruxin nodded, "My home is at the back of Dapu East Village. Just enter the village, and you’ll see my yard. My name is Yang Ruxin, and Uncle can just call me Xinxin..."
"One of my distant maternal aunts is married in Xiaobudong Village, so I know the way." Lu Gao nodded happily, thinking how easy this business was going to be. He would go and talk to other boatmen; if they needed fish daily, it might even be possible to buy three or four jin for one copper coin. If he could bring in several dozen jin a day, he’d earn several dozen copper coins, which was easier than going out to sea.
After this, Yang Ruxin nodded with a smile and then said her goodbyes.
But Lu Gao, as he watched Yang Ruxin walk away and looked at the copper coin in his hand, sighed. How could she finish eating so many shrimps? Well, he’d just collect less for now, maybe just ten jin or so, just in case she stopped liking them later; there won’t be too much loss. The child was still young, not knowing how to manage household matters. He wondered what was going on with the adults in her family.
Yang Ruxin, of course, had no idea that Lu Gao was worried about her inability to manage household affairs and was kindly planning for her. Instead, she headed to the town in high spirits.
She walked and shopped along the way, taking advantage of the quieter moments to store her purchases in her space for future needs.
