Chapter 24 024. Turn defeat into victory

  Chu Qingzhi took retreat as the way forward, "I researched this prescription with great difficulty, and it's not from my adoptive parents' house, but if you want it, it's not impossible."

  After hearing this, everyone's eyes became bright.

  Chu Qingzhi glanced at the crowd lightly, a faint sarcasm flashed in her eyes, "As long as everyone is willing to spend money to buy it, I'm very happy to tell you the way."

  Chu Ping jumped out again, and said righteously, "Chu Qingzhi, we are all from the same village, how can you ask for our money?"

  Chu Qingzhi turned her face to Chu Ping's direction, and asked, "A village doesn't need money? Then our family will have dinner at yours tonight, okay?"

  Chu Ping stared at Chu Qingzhi, and stopped talking. The Chu family has more than a dozen members, and he would have to eat a meal.

   Someone asked, "How much do you want?"

  Chu Qingzhi raised a finger and said with a smile, "One hundred taels."

   Everyone gasped, their family couldn't save a hundred taels for a lifetime, yet Chu Qingzhi asked for a hundred taels!

  Chu Ping scolded, "Chu Qingzhi, what are you dreaming of, and you actually want one hundred taels! Impossible, we can't buy the prescription with one hundred taels."

  Chu Qingzhi spread her hands, expressing that it doesn't matter, "The ice in the city costs a penny a catty, and you can earn a hundred taels by selling a thousand catties of ice. Water is not available everywhere, so you can make a lot of money?"

  Everyone thinks about it, it seems that it is a lot of money.

Chu Qingzhi didn't care about everyone's reaction, and continued, "But if you sell it in the county, you can only sell it like us. A piece of ice cream only sells for ten yuan, otherwise no one will buy it. In other words, the ice cream you made You have to bring it to the city to sell it at a high price. Let me say one more thing here, the ice in the city is monopolized by those big families, if you sell it, be careful, don’t offend the powerful, and you will never return."

  Everyone heard that the dream of making a lot of money showed signs of dissipating, and their minds became clearer.

Chu Qingzhi said again, "If you imagine our family selling ice cream, first you have to have oranges, you have to peel them, squeeze them into juice, make molds, freeze them, and store them. By the way, before doing all this, you have to save a hundred taels of oranges. Buy a recipe from me."

   "To sum up, I agree to sell the prescription to you at a price of one hundred taels. If you want it, go home and save money, don't dawdle."

  Chu Ping pointed at Chu Qingzhi and said angrily, "Chu Qingzhi, I think you just said that because you didn't want to give us the prescription."

"You are right, who is willing to give someone else's good things for no reason? Are you so generous?" Chu Qingzhi's voice became severe, "If you want to get the prescription for free, go home and lie on the bed and have a dream, I don't So much time wasted with you."

  A villager said indignantly, "Chu Qingzhi, Chu Ping is right, you just don't want to give us the prescription."

  Chu Qingzhi said, "Are you willing to send your food to my family for free? If you are willing, we will move right away."

  The villager stopped talking.

   Another villager spoke, "Chu Qingzhi, one hundred taels is too expensive, you can get it cheaper."

  Chu Qingzhi smiled, "Your family seems to have more than 20 old hens. I'll buy them for you for a penny a catty. Do you agree?"

  The villager stopped talking, and the chickens cost a penny and a catty, he would die.

  Tang Jinghong lowered his head slightly, with a faint smile on his brows. If you play a rascal, I must be more rascal than you, so that you won't suffer.

  Chu Qingzhi became impatient, "Is there anything else to say? If there is nothing to say, let's leave, it's getting dark."

  Zhao Xiuhua said loudly, "Chu Qingzhi, the village chief hasn't said anything yet. Why do you say we're leaving? The problem of the increasingly serious drought in the village hasn't been resolved yet."

  Chu Qingzhi narrowed her eyes slightly, Zhao Xiuhua was responsible for what happened today, "Village Chief, as long as you drive this wicked old woman out of the village, I will help everyone find the water source."

  Zhao Xiuhua did not cause substantial harm to her, so she didn't want to force Zhao Xiuhua to death. Most of the women who were driven out of the village committed suicide. They did this just to threaten her, and they couldn't waste time fighting with her every day.
