After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 71 Jam in Short Supply
After Su Xiaoxiao saw the group of officials leave, Granny Liu was still in shock and remained kneeling on the ground.

Her face turned ashen. Once the group of people had disappeared from her sight, she finally came to her senses and began to wail and cry.

People around her looked at her but couldn't feel any sympathy, even though she was crying very hard.

"How could this happen, Dazhuang? It's all this damned woman's fault!"

She turned around and glared fiercely at Su Xiaoxiao and Sanlang.

Grandma Liu looks terrible now. Foul-smelling water keeps flowing down her gray hair, her face is covered in yellow dirt and looks like a cat with a dirty face. Her hair is also a mess.

Su Xiaoxiao ignored her.

Besides, there was another woman in the crowd watching coldly from the side, and she didn't come over, so Su Xiaoxiao felt that there was even less need for her to come over.

The woman was none other than Li Dongmei. She was holding her own child. When the child saw his father being taken away, he tried to come over, but Li Dongmei stopped him.

Sanlang pulled Su Xiaoxiao into the house, and the farce continued.

Su Xiaoxiao was not in the mood to participate anymore. She looked at Sanlang and felt that he was hiding something from her.

"Did you report this official position?"

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Sanlang and pressed him for an answer.

"No, I won't meddle in this business."

Sanlang ignored Su Xiaoxiao's gaze and turned to lead the children to play.

"I have a feeling that you know Zhao, the head constable."

Su Xiaoxiao muttered in confusion behind him.

Seeing Su Xiaoxiao looking puzzled, Sanlang quickly said to her, "Stop thinking about it. Have you finished making your jam? Instead of wasting time spacing out here, you should go and check how well the jam is selling."

Su Xiaoxiao then realized that half a month had passed and she wondered how the jam she had placed at Li Ji Grocery Store was selling.

If the jam sells well, they'll probably have to start ordering their own stock again, right?
Thinking of this, Su Xiaoxiao said to Sanlang, "Sanlang, you're the most clear-headed one. You reminded me. I need to go to town right away."

Su Xiaoxiao didn't even eat before rushing off in the oxcart towards the town.

Saburo watched her retreating figure and muttered something.

"Does this have to be so rushed? This person is really in a hurry."

As soon as Su Xiaoxiao arrived in front of Li's Grocery Store, she saw that the situation had completely changed.

Previously, Sun's grocery store was always packed with people, while Li's grocery store across the street was always deserted, with not a single customer.

The situation has now completely shifted and changed entirely.

Su Xiaoxiao saw that there were people in front of Li's Grocery Store. They surrounded the sweating boss, Mr. Li, and asked anxiously, "Mr. Li, when will you have more stock? You have to give us a definite answer. We come here every day, and you keep saying you have no stock."

Mr. Li explained, "It's really not my fault. When the goods will arrive depends on whether they come to deliver them. I can't contact Mr. Su anymore."

Indeed, Su Xiaoxiao hadn't left any contact information for Boss Li when she left last time. Although Boss Li knew the jam was produced in Baihua Village, Baihua Village was so big that he couldn't find anyone there.

Mr. Li looked up and said hurriedly, "Mr. Su, you've finally arrived."

"Do you have any jam left? We're running out of stock."

Su Xiaoxiao really didn't bring a single jar of jam with her. She said to Boss Li apologetically, "Boss Li, I just came to see how your jam is selling. I didn't bring any jam with me, but I don't have any left at home."

Mr. Li looked very anxious and said to Su Xiaoxiao, "Mr. Su, what should we do? These customers are waiting."

Su Xiaoxiao saw a group of customers looking at her with anxious and expectant eyes. Seeing so many people staring at her, she couldn't refuse, could she?
So Su Xiaoxiao quickly said, "Oh, just because we don't have it now doesn't mean we won't have it tomorrow. I'll hurry up and make the jam..."

Mr. Li's eyes lit up. "You'll have it tomorrow? Then send me another fifty bottles tomorrow. I don't need too many, just enough to tide me over. Make sure they're from my regular customers. You know how hard I've worked to build up these loyal customers; I can't afford to offend them..."

Su Xiaoxiao was completely bewildered. What to do now? She didn't continue to order custom porcelain bottles from the craftsman. "I'm sorry, Mr. Li, I may not be able to provide you with those porcelain bottles of jam. I may only be able to provide some bulk jam."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Li agreed, "That works too, loose is fine."

Su Xiaoxiao finally managed to escape from Mr. Li's grocery store and promised him that she would definitely send him jam.

Su Xiaoxiao turned around, only to see a hostile gaze shot from inside Sun's General Store, filled with hatred, as if it wanted to kill Su Xiaoxiao.

Needless to say, that must be Mr. Sun, the owner of Sun's Grocery Store.

Su Xiaoxiao snorted inwardly. Who told you to reject me like that before? You brought this on yourself; you deserved your bad business.

Su Xiaoxiao felt she had gotten her revenge. Last time, she had been humiliated by the owner of Sun's shop, who looked down on the jam made by Su Xiaoxiao's family. This time, he had humiliated her in return.

It seems like all the grudges have been settled now.

Su Xiaoxiao didn't have time to think about anything else. She drove directly to the next village and found the old man who had made the porcelain vase for her last time.

"Grandpa, I need to order another thousand porcelain bottles. Oh, and I also need to sign an agreement with you so that you can help make the porcelain bottles for our jam production from now on."

Upon hearing this, the old man realized it was a great opportunity and happily signed the agreement with Su Xiaoxiao.

Now that there are more orders, Su Xiaoxiao returned to the village and saw some villagers sitting idly under the big locust tree at the village entrance, and saw Su Xiaoxiao driving the oxcart home with high spirits.

They were all talking about it, saying that Su Xiaoxiao had really changed a lot. She was no longer as lazy and greedy as before, with a bad temper, and always listless and without any energy.

Now, Su Xiaoxiao's eyes are shining, and she's very energetic. In just a short time, she's already bought an oxcart and started driving it.

At least for going to the market or going on a long trip, you don't have to rely on your own two legs to get around, and you can even help carry a lot of things.

Su Xiaoxiao saw envy in the eyes of those people, and some were clearly jealous, but she didn't care.

As a time traveler, Su Xiaoxiao sometimes thinks that it's fate that she was able to travel to this village.

"Since you're here, don't just think about things that make you angry. Do your best to help out in any way you can!"
