Chapter 920: Falling in Love and Killing Each Other by Poaching (1)
freēwebnovel.com The first batch of fish weighed over a thousand jin. Mo Yan initially took one hundred and fifty jin to the shop on a horse-drawn cart to test sales, kept a hundred and twenty jin, and sent thirty jin shared amongst the Punishing Shopkeeper and Owner Mu with a few tails each, while the rest were all delivered to the Scholar Mansion and the Liu Family.
Mo Yan set a high price for the fish, five Wen Money more per jin compared to the market price. Those who could afford to buy grain from the Mo Family’s shop were not short of money, and the reputation of the shop was good—it had never cheated or overcharged its customers. As a result, under the recommendations of Lizhong and others, the customers who liked to eat fish or had family members who enjoyed fish were very willing to pay for it.
As it turned out, the very next day, those customers who had bought fish the day before flocked in, not to buy grains, but specifically for the fish.
Fortunately, Mo Yan was prepared and transported over the remaining eight hundred plus jin of fish. Within two hours, they were all sold out.
This batch of fish sold for a sum close to twelve Liangs of Silver. It seemed little, not even half of what the rice shop made in a day, but it was extra wealth, and Mo Yan happily pocketed it into her purse.
After that, the fish pond yielded fish twice more, totaling a thousand jin, and were sold off in two days. During this period, the birds that had flown out had finally returned one after another, carrying back the information Mo Yan wanted to know.
"Without the Zhao Family, Fan Meijiao is nothing, I knew it—how could the Duchess of Yongchang take a fancy to her? It turns out there was such a reason." Mo Yan suddenly realized and then sneered, "It seems I won’t have to lift a finger, her life is destined not to turn around. Good, let her be entangled in love and hatred with the Duchess of Yongchang’s nephew, so I don’t dirty my hands."
