Chapter 901: 883. I often packed it again.

Packaging the kudzu root is purely hard work.

However, before starting to package it, Song Tan contacted the vegetable vendor Old Zhao: "Do you want some kudzu root powder?"

"From your family’s?" Old Zhao instantly perked up, and the next moment he began to tally the cash he had on hand.

"No." Song Tan ruthlessly shattered his dream, but then offered a sweet date: "It’s from our village, but I guarantee the quality is better than what you buy in the market."

Old Zhao became lively: "What’s the price?"

Song Tan turned to consult with Zhang Yanping: "What do you think is a fair price per pound?"

Zhang Yanping was busy arranging people to go to Doctor Xiaoguo’s clinic to help clean up the kudzu vines; without raising her head, she remarked, "You’ve already said it’s better than the market’s, and not as good as ours, so let’s just make it about the same—88 yuan per pound."

Not to mention anything else, when it comes to farming, whatever quality Song Tan says, it is that quality—no one at home doubts it.

Song Tan thought for a bit and replied to Old Zhao: "We’ll sell some online later, the price will be 88 yuan per pound including shipping. For you... a wholesale price of 60."

Online, they need to pack, ship for free, and provide customer service, so it’s not a bad deal to distribute some to Old Zhao at 60.

As for Zhang Wang’s Family... he even told Song Tan that as long as their family buys, he’ll sell all at 45 yuan per pound.

Lao Song’s family wasn’t exactly in need of this money. Right now, they joined in for fun and helped sell the kudzu root. Not to mention anything else, first giving the opportunity to let Secretary Xiaozu build up his following.

At the very least, let the audience know that this live-streaming room can also spend money, and it’s good value for money.

Old Zhao wasn’t picky either, these days he could get some mountain vegetables every now and then to sell, not earning much, but it attracted traffic! And he attracted middle to high-end customers to his shop.

"Okay, then I’ll set up a pre-order in the group later, let’s start with an order of 500 pounds. I’ll transfer the deposit to you in a while."

Old Zhao is very straightforward with money, and his reputation is faultless. Song Tan thought for a while, then revealed in advance: "At the end of the year, our village will have a lot of high-quality radishes and cabbages. If you’re capable, save up more money, buy more, you won’t lose out."

Old Zhao sighed: "I’m certainly capable of scraping together more money, but the problem is our market is only so big—what are the buying prices for radishes and cabbages?"

Song Tan considered for a moment: "We’ll see what the quality is like then—anyway, the price per pound will be 50 cents to 1 yuan more expensive than the market."

"That works!" Old Zhao was decisive: "It’s grown by people in your village, right? I’ll give them a Reassuring Pill first. If the quality is like what you said, I can commit to buying 1000 pounds even if it’s 1 yuan more expensive."

"If the quality is just so-so, not much different from the market, I can still commit to buying 1000 pounds at the market price."

pounds isn’t much, but his willingness to state such an unconditioned offer as a small business shows that he indeed treats Lao Song’s family like friends.

"Sure thing, Old Zhao!"

Sure enough, Song Tan started smiling: "Pulling out a feather from the flinty rooster, that’s thoughtful of you! But rest assured, the quality will definitely not be just average."

Old Zhao bragged inwardly: You think you can outdo me in business? I started from being a vegetable vendor and have been selling vegetables for a decade or two!

He also reassured: "Don’t worry, I’ll personally come to taste them. If they’re good, I have no issue with following up with two or three thousand pounds, this stuff keeps well!"

Meanwhile, Song Tan copied the message from earlier and turned to send it to Boss Chang.

Boss Chang, who was busy sketching and considering gift boxes for the end of the year: "Huh?"

Shouldn’t you inform me what vegetables can be provided from my greenhouse? Why are you suddenly asking about the village people’s radishes, cabbages, and kudzu root powder?

But after thinking, if Song Tan said the quality exceeds everything in the market, is being one yuan more expensive a problem?

Not at all!

Boss Chang, with an air of confidence, declared: "Okay, I’ll take whatever you have when the time comes!"

Song Tan: ...

If you put it that way, I’m really not even sure about notifying everyone about the good news ahead of time.

Don’t underestimate the rural folks; they’re not just all simple-mindedness. What if they start cutting corners and faking quantities to make money, throwing in veggies from who knows where... can they still do business after that?

All she could do was to cautiously say, "No rush, no rush, I’m just giving you a heads-up, we’ll see how much there is later on."

Boss Chang didn’t seem to care.

Right now, his mind was all on the greenhouse, he was almost tempted to roll up his bedding and sleep there. Despite trying to hold back, he couldn’t help himself and blurted out his question:

"What are you planning to plant in the greenhouse this winter? I need to adjust the menu accordingly."

Huh?

Song Tan was startled: "What I plant in my greenhouse has nothing to do with your menu, does it? Why are you worried about this?"

Boss Chang became anxious: "How can I not worry? Aren’t the vegetables from your greenhouse being sold? That can’t be possible! Where did I go wrong that you stopped supplying? Winter greenhouse veg has its own pricing! If you plant rare stuff, I’ll pay more!"

Song Tan realized what was going on and immediately replied with composure: "Oh, you’re talking about that... Who gave you this half-baked info? My greenhouse is just two acres, what can I grow with that? It’s just for our own family to eat and drink during winter."

Like a bolt from the blue!

Boss Chang was completely dumbstruck.

The greenhouse... gone? The New Year’s Eve dinner... gone?

His VIP Supreme Return Gift Box... also gone?

He whipped out his phone again, and the message from Zhang Yanping was clear as day—

[Not busy with anything, just going to check out the greenhouse construction at home.]

Boss Chang’s heart shattered.

Still not giving up, he asked: "Why only build two acres? Is it because you’re short on money? I’ve got some here! I won’t invest, but I can lend it to you interest-free, isn’t that okay?"

Song Tan firmly refused: "We’ve been tired all year, we really need to rest during winter. For the two acres of greenhouse, just taking a walk around it every day is enough, there’s no need to do anything else, I don’t want to be too busy."

Boss Chang bit his lip and tears welled up in his eyes; in the end, he could only sniffle: "Then you... the kudzu root you mentioned before, send a basket of fresh ones over, my customers here love eating fresh produce."

"Sure!" Boss Chang is a guy Song Tan quite likes, so she generously said: "I’ll send you two baskets!"

...

Once everything was settled, Song Tan also took Zhang Yanping with her, riding on the new jujube-red tricycle they had bought, they dashed off towards Zhang Wang’s family in the back mountain.

In the spacious courtyard, half of the space was occupied by kudzu roots.

At the entrance, there were even two tricycles loaded with long, skinny firewood kudzu.

Seeing Zhang Yanping, Zhang Wang’s family smiled and said, "Yanping, I’ve packed all the firewood kudzu, a total of 3986 jin and six liang. You tell Doctor Guo, calculating it as 3980 jin is fine."

"Sure thing!" Zhang Yanping didn’t mince her words: "She’s already hiring people to wash, peel, and slice them, I’ve asked the villagers, they can start working once they’re brought over."

After the price was reported, the other party directly sent the payment.

Zhang Yanping started to smile, showed him the transfer amount, and casually asked: "Uncle Zhang, show me your bank card, I’ll transfer it directly into your account."

Nineteen thousand nine hundred, nearly twenty thousand. They hadn’t even started working and the money was already in!

Zhang Wang’s family couldn’t stop grinning and quickly wiped his hands on his clothes, hurriedly went into his house to get his bank card.
