“I’ll go and redeem the land.” Xiao Jingting said.
In the pawnshop, there ware still five my of first-class fields and four mu of low-class field, redeeming five mu of first-class fields would cost one hundred and thirty silver and four mu of low-class field, twenty-six silver a total of 156 silver.
Xu Muan took out a money bag and said: “Here is forty silver, you can take it to redeem the land first.”
Originally if all the grapes were sold, they would earn more than 130 silver. With the money Xiao Jingting earned before, it should be almost right to redeem the land. However, they were unable to sell more than 200 strings of grapes and lost more than 50 silver of income. Xiao Jingting did not have enough money in his hand, so Xu Muan give his some of the silver Xiao Jingting had given him last time.
Seeing Xu Muan come out from his room, Xiao Jingting was moved and after weighing the situation he did not refuse.
In fact, Xu Muan was a small moneygrubber and all of his silver was well hidden. Xiao Jingting was sure that the original body owner did not find the place where Xu Muan really hid his money before. This showed that Xu Muan who took the initiative to take out the money, really started to trust him.
After two days, when the spiritual plants mature, we’ll have money again.” Xiao Jingting said.
Xu Muan nodded and said: “I know, you should redeem the field first, it will be troublesome if it turns into a dead pawn.”
Xiao Jingting nodded and answered: “Good.”
When pawn shop owner saw that Xiao Jingting had come to redeem the fields again, his face couldn’t become worse.
When Xiao Jingting and Xu Muan come out of the pawn shop, then meet Wang Erhu, “Brother Xiao, I haven’t seen you for a few days and now I heard you have become rich!”
“Where is the rich! I have spent all the money I just got. The owner of this pawnshop is really merciless! He only kept the title deed with him for a few days and when I redeemed it I lost so much silver in vain.” Xiao Jingting said with a look of dissatisfaction.
Wang Erhu laughed and said: “Brother Xiao! Why didn’t I know you are good at growing grapes? “
“How, brother Wang is overpraising me.”
Wang Erhu looked at Xiao Jingting and said: “Brother Xiao, it’s for you to come to city now. Why don’t you go have some fun?”
“Now?”
Xu Muan said angrily: “You bastard, if you keep encourage my head of house to learn bad habit, see if I don’t kill you.”
Xu Muan rushed over and kicked Wang Erhu to the ground, Xu Muan originally only wanted to give Wang Erhu a little lesson, but he knew that Wang Erhu waa very weak. When he kicked him he flew out directly and Xu Muan could not help feeling dull.
Xiao Jingting smiled apologetically at Wang Erhu and said: “Brother Erhu, I still have something to do at home, so I won’t have fun with you. If you are free, you better go have some fun by yourself.”
“Let’s go. you don’t have to talk to such people from now on. ” Xu Muan said.
Xiao Jingting was submissive and left with Xu Muan.
Wang Erhu was rogue and no one in the city liked him. Seeing him being taught a lesson make a lot of people laugh.
Wang Erhu looked at the figure of Xiao Jingting and Xu Muan, and his heart become filled with resentment.
Wang Erhu secretly thought: I did not notice before that Xiao Jingting was so so afraid of his wife! In the past, when Xiao Jingting mentioned his wife, he was always full of contempt. Could it be that Xu Muan used some demonic art? As far as he know, there was some kind of powder that make person obey the words of the first person they saw when they woke up. Xu Muan wouldn’t use similar powder on Xiao Jingting.
Good things don’t come to door but bad bad things spread a thousand miles. The matter of Xiao Jingting grape salles stagnation spread all of a sudden.
As soon as Xiao Jingting and Xu Muan arrived outside the city, they were educated by the few passengers who came with them.
“You are the head of the Xiao family so I need to tell you. Your grapes are too expensive. No wonder they don’t want to do business with you.”
“Yes! Even if you are from big family you need to be careful. It’s no different from robbing money if you sell them for so much.”
“Boss Xiao, I think this grapes should be sold for smaller profit. If you drive away all customers like this, how can you still do business with people in the future?”
“……”
Xiao Jingting listened to the comments of a group of seven great aunts, and rolled his eyes in his heart. When he planted grapes he used a lot of spiritual spring water, which was a good thing! Not only it could restore spiritual energy but also improve strength. Grapes planted with spiritual spring water should be sold more expensive, if no one buys them he will not sell them.
Seeing Xiao Jingting indifference, Xu Muan mood calmed down.
“Daddy, the grapes have not been sold!” Xiao Xiaofan bit his finger and squatted down, looking at the grapes in the basket asking.
Xu Muan nodded and said: “Yes! Some of them have not been sold. “
Xiao Xiaofan looked up and said with anticipation: “Oh, this grape will go bad if they stay to long. Why don’t I help daddy and father eat them?”
Xu Muan: “…”
Xiao Xiaodong performance was more reserved than Xiao Xiaofan but his eyes couldn’t help, but glance at the basket reveal Xiao Xiaodong inner thoughts.
“I’ll squeeze some grape juice for you guys to drink, but only half a cup per person.” Xu Muan said.
Xiao Xiaofan quickly nodded and Xiao Xiaodong also revealed a look of anticipation.
“Daddy, why couldn’t we sell so many grapes?” Xiao Xiaodong asked.
Xu Muan helplessly said: “Some big families thought they were to too expensive, so, they don’t want them anymore.”
Xiao Xiaodong snorted lightly and disdainfully said: “These people, really don’t know what they are doing.”
Xiao Xiaodong was, after all, Xiao Jingting son. When they were still in Xiao family, his grandfather and grandmother occasionally thought of him and gave him something to eat. Xiao Xiaodong remembered the valuable spirit fruits he had eaten, which were even more expensive than grapes, but the spiritual power they contained were not as much as grapes planted by his father.
Xiao Xiaofan took a small sip of the grape juice and smacked his lips.
“Brother, you’re so stupid! They don’t know the good but thank to them we have more grapes to eat! Otherwise, you and I won’t be able to eat them.” Xiao Xiaofan puffed his cheek.
Xiao Xiaodong blushed, he had always been the smartest but his stupid brother actually siad he was stupid: “You little fool, you only know how to eat.”
Xiao Xiaofan puffed his cheek, full of displeasure: “Brother you say this to me, but you clearly eat more than me.”
Xiao Xiaodong face reddened, “I’m older and stronger than you, It is only right I eat more.”
Xu Muan watched Xiao Xiaofan and Xiao Xiaodong quarreling and helplessly said: “Alright, alright, stop it and go to your bed quickly after finishing your grape juice.”
