Chapter 876

At noon the next day, Lin Yuexin got into the carriage and led an ordinary carriage, escorted by Ying Sheng and Ying Jing, to buy chestnuts.

As soon as Lin Yuexin got out of the carriage, Li Zheng immediately came up to greet her, and said with a smile: "Little brother, you are finally here, please come inside, from yesterday evening to just now, we bought a total of [-] catties of chestnuts."

For some reason, upon hearing Li Zheng's words, Lin Yuexin remembered the saying - "There is strength in numbers."

"Let's find someone to weigh it." After all, it was the first time to make a deal, Lin Yuexin felt that it was better to be careful, and not to be as much as the other party said. This is a long-term deal, and it must be done well at the beginning.

"Okay." After Li Zheng finished answering, he called his son and asked him to find two people to help with the scale.

After a while, Lizheng's son brought back the two men, weighed them with Lizheng, Yingsheng was in charge of registration, and Lin Yuexin just stood aside and watched.

The eight hundred catties of chestnuts are not too much, and the baskets that are being prepared can hold fifty catties. There are a total of sixteen baskets, and it only took more than a quarter of an hour to register. The number of chestnuts was the same as that reported by Li Zheng, Lin Yuexin asked Li Zheng's son and the two men to help move sixteen baskets of chestnuts to the carriage following her carriage.

After loading all sixteen baskets of chestnuts into the carriage, Lin Yuexin asked Ying Sheng to make up the remaining [-] wen, and after saying goodbye to Li Zheng, he boarded the carriage and returned to Wusha City.

The two carriages drove all the way without any abnormality, but when passing through the border forest, Ying Sheng ordered the carriage to stop.

"Yingsheng, what happened?" The carriage stopped suddenly, making Lin Yuexin very puzzled.

Ying Sheng didn't answer Lin Yuexin's question immediately, but sat in the passenger seat and scanned the surrounding area, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual, he signaled the coachman to move on.

The carriage drove again, and Lin Yuexin knew that nothing happened outside, so she didn't ask any more questions.

After entering Wusha City, the two carriages did not go back directly to the Yamen, but went straight to Chengben's workshop. The chestnuts in the Yamen were transported to the workshop every day. Lin Yuexin felt that it was very troublesome, so she did not buy the chestnuts today. A dozen were shipped back to the Yamen for safekeeping, and then shipped directly to the workshop.

There were people staying behind in the workshop, and the people here didn't know how to make chestnuts, and they couldn't make money if they stole them, so Lin Yuexin wasn't worried at all, someone would try to make chestnuts.

After transporting the chestnuts into the workshop, Lin Yuexin asked the coachman to take her back to the Yamen.

Although Wusha City is only more than ten miles away from the village where they bought chestnuts, and they traveled back and forth in a horse-drawn carriage, this ancient road is no smoother than the one in the previous life. It was already evening when we arrived at the gate of the yamen.

Lin Yuexin stepped into the Yamen in the afterglow of the setting sun, and habitually went to the study first to report to Long Hexuan that she was safe.

The workshop has been working for the past two days, but the chestnut cake process has only officially started today. The workshop can be said to be maintained by selling fried chestnuts for the past two days.

Although it is just simple fried chestnuts, because it is a fresh food, although the people in Wusha City do not have land, there are also rich and wealthy gentry in the city. Although Wusha City is occupied by Zewen Kingdom, they business was not affected.

To them, eight cents is not a lot of money at all, and they can still afford to eat fresh food. Therefore, the next day, a roaster shop bought goods from the aunt who sold fried chestnuts.
