Watermelon, this is a divine weapon for beating the summer heat.
In later generations, there will even be a famous saying: air conditioning, WiFi, watermelon, grouping watermelon with air conditioning and WiFi, this sufficiently demonstrates the popularity of watermelon.
But here, watermelon is still a rarity, last time Yang Ye gave her some, and she kept the seeds, but there weren’t many, if she wanted to plant them, she’d have to ask Yang Ye for more seeds.
This year she had an ice cellar repaired, next year she’d plant watermelons, and then the next summer she could enjoy chilled watermelon!
“That’s easy, next time the miss sends something to the prince. just write a letter asking for it. The prince has watermelon seeds,” the Xiaoyang guard said.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai nodded immediately.
After she spoke a few more words with the Xiaoyang guard, she then went to handle official business at Jiwei Residence.
From Shopkeeper He, she and Tong Sanlang received even more detailed information about the children’s tricycle, and Shopkeeper He couldn’t help but sigh, “Master Yang regrets not making enough of them!”
Qiao Xiaomai “…”
Tong Sanlang “…”
One sold for one hundred and eighty-eight taels, minus the twenty taels paid to her, and this twenty taels was just the silver for two thousand tricycles, which amounted to three hundred and thirty-six thousand taels.
The other three thousand tricycles were really sold at one hundred and eighty-eight taels each, which in total was five hundred and sixty-four thousand taels.
These two numbers added up to exactly nine hundred thousand taels.
Nine hundred thousand taels!
What does that mean?
A tiny tricycle, and Yu Ang had amassed a fortune of a million!
And still, he was not satisfied?
Seeing Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang’s speechlessness, Shopkeeper He chuckled and said, “What’s the big deal? Since the appearance of sweet potatoes, the phenomenon of starvation has greatly decreased, everyone’s life is getting better, and they all have money in their hands, now that they have been given an opportunity to spend, they even thank Jiwei Residence.”
Nobles, merchants both big and small—these people alone consumed five thousand children’s tricycles, easily.
“Even if there were another five thousand tricycles, they would sell out. Left Chancellor Yang lost a million taels in an instant, he was so annoyed that he couldn’t sleep well for days.”
The silver that could have gone into one’s own pocket but didn’t due to a momentary oversight, all that was a loss.
“The royal house isn’t afraid of imitations, but our Jiwei Residence is, and at this time, fakes have probably already appeared, so even if more are made now, they can’t be sold,” Shopkeeper He said with a look of regret on his face, as if he too had lost a million taels.
Seeing this left Qiao Xiaomai once again dumbstruck.
Okay, she initially thought that Jiwei Residence would at most price these little tricycles at one hundred taels each, but Yu Ang set it at one hundred and eighty-eight taels, really, such foresight only a well-experienced Chancellor could have.
By comparison, her own insight was still too limited.
“Oh yes, young madam, Master Yang told me to pass on his thanks to you, he said, ‘Thank you, Sanlang has married a good wife,'” Shopkeeper He suddenly said earnestly.
Yang Wenxiao issued a decree forbidding the Tong Family from having any dealings with the Left Chancellor, so they earnestly and completely cut off contact.
Yu Ang was grateful to Qiao Xiaomai for helping Jiwei Residence earn so much silver, he wanted to prepare a meeting gift for her, but given the current special circumstances, he could only verbally express his gratitude.
He would have to make up for this gift from a grandparent to a granddaughter-in-law in the future.
As soon as Shopkeeper He finished speaking, Qiao Xiaomai was stunned; she never expected to receive such words from Yu Ang.
Tong Sanlang wasn’t stunned, he heard the words and smiled, saying, “We’re all family, no need for thanks, it just creates unnecessary formality.”
What’s the use in making money? After all, it can’t be used to plot a rebellion.
It’s not needed.
