After her husband died, her parents came to force her to remarry

Chapter 137 I will arrange for someone to come to your house soon

When Meng Hetang heard that it was Jiang Xiaohe who wanted to discuss business with him, he came so quickly.

"What rare things did you bring today, madam?"

Jiang Xiaohe pointed at the mushrooms in the basket, and he immediately perked up.

"this...."

"Boss Meng, I'd like to ask for fifty cents per pound of fresh mushrooms, right?"

Meng Hetang picked up the mushroom, looked around, and even put it under his nose to smell it: "This is really a mushroom, how did my wife get it?"

“Homegrown.”

"Oh? Since it's grown at home, isn't the price a bit high?"

"Boss Meng, is there nothing else to talk about?"

Meng Hetang poured some more water into her cup and said, "Don't worry, my lady. We can definitely negotiate this, but as for the price, I hope you can give in a little. Our restaurant is in the town, not in the county. You know, the prices in the town are cheaper than in the city. If I give you this price, I'm afraid my restaurant will not make any profit."

No profit? Jiang Xiaohe didn't believe it.

"Boss Meng's words reminded me that I should go to the county town to find a restaurant to cooperate with."

Meng Hetang:......

"No, we are still negotiating. I just want you to give me a better discount."

Jiang Xiaohe took a sip of the water in the cup: "Forty-five cents a pound, this is the cheapest. I gave you the first batch. If the production is large in the future, we can still negotiate the price, and..."

Jiang Xiaohe looked at Meng Hetang: "I have more than one category."

this.....

Meng Hetang lowered his head and thought for a while: "How about forty cents?"

Jiang Xiaohe shook her head: "Forty-five! If Boss Meng doesn't agree, I'll talk to someone else. Besides, I have another business to discuss with Boss Meng today."

"Oh? Anything else?"

Jiang Xiaohe nodded.

Meng Hetang gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, forty-five is forty-five."

"Boss Meng is straightforward!"

Meng Hetang waved his hand: "What other business is the lady talking about?"

"If Boss Meng is free this afternoon, you are welcome to visit our home. Boss Meng will know then."

After Jiang Xiaohe finished speaking, she stood up.

Meng Hetang also stood up: "Meng will definitely be there in the afternoon."

Jiang Xiaohe smiled and nodded, asked Manager Yu to weigh the oyster mushrooms she brought today, collected the money and left.

After seeing the guest off to the door, Shopkeeper Yu said, "This Madam Jiang is truly the smartest rural woman I have ever seen."

Meng Hetang glanced at her and said, "Fortunately, she is a farmer's wife, otherwise this business..."

After saying that, he shook his head and pointed at the mushrooms: "Go hang up the sign outside. There are not many mushrooms here. If you want to eat fresh mushrooms today, the one who offers the highest price will win."

Shopkeeper Yu smiled and said, "I'll do it right away."

While shopping in the town, she saw a man selling children's hats. Thinking of Zhang Chuan, she spent thirty cents to buy one for him. Then she turned around and saw a man selling hairpins. She picked one up and looked at it. Thinking that Wang Qiuxia always had a wooden hairpin, she spent three cents to buy her a plain silver hairpin.

He was very satisfied holding it in his hand, then turned around and walked towards home. It was a rare day of sunshine, and it felt very comfortable in the sun, so he planned to walk back.

As soon as I arrived at the town entrance, I ran into Chang Wei.

Jiang Xiaohe frowned and pretended not to see him, but Chang Wei was unwilling to let him go.

He stretched out his hand to block her way.

Jiang Xiaohe looked up at him reluctantly: "Master Chang, I have made my words very clear before, right?"

Chang Wei nodded and said in a somewhat intimate tone: "Don't worry, I understand."

Jiang Xiaohe almost got goosebumps when she heard his tone.

"You just understand."

Jiang Xiaohe didn't want to waste time talking and was about to leave.

But he was blocked again.

She took a step back and said, "Master Chang, why is this happening?"

Chang Wei pursed his lips and said, "Don't worry, I'm preparing recently and I'll arrange for someone to come to your house soon."

Having said this, he turned and left.

Jiang Xiaohe didn't understand what he said at all and cursed in her heart, "You must be crazy."

Carrying the basket, he continued walking home.

The family had just finished cleaning up the dishes at noon when Meng Hetang arrived.

Still at Zeng Hua’s house.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Meng Hetang said, "My wife's new house is about to be completed. When the time comes for the housewarming party, don't forget to invite me."

Jiang Xiaohe smiled: "Of course, of course."

Meng Hetang looked at the puppets in the basket in the yard and frowned slightly: "I thought my wife couldn't make puppets anymore."

Jiang Xiaohe asked him to sit down, and then brought him some water: "How could that be? Besides, we asked Boss Meng to come here today to discuss the puppet business."

A puppet? Meng Hetang was slightly disappointed.

"To be honest, my father-in-law did make a lot of money from the puppet business I discussed with my wife last time, but now these puppets are almost everywhere and they are sold at a low price."

Jiang Xiaohe smiled, stood up, picked out some dolls from the basket and showed them to Meng Hetang.

this....

"This is different from the previous batch!"

Jiang Xiaohe nodded: "This is the new style our family came up with."

As a businessman, Meng Hetang certainly understands what kind of profits a new style can bring, just like when he runs a restaurant. If he serves a new dish, the pricing of this dish will be different from other dishes.

Can....

Meng Hetang looked at Jiang Xiaohe and said, "My lady, since you can think of these styles, why don't you just sell them to me directly? Instead, why do you have to make them ready and sell them? It's so troublesome."

"Boss Meng, don't you know why I do this?"

How could Meng Hetang not know this? With so many women standing nearby, these dolls must have been made by them. He said this because he wanted Jiang Xiaohe to sell the patterns to him in the future.

But Jiang Xiaohe was obviously unwilling to do so, probably because she wanted to make some profit for these women.

"Mrs. Jiang is righteous."

Jiang Xiaohe smiled and said nothing.

Meng Hetang asked: "Will the price remain the same as before?"

"can."

After counting the money and helping to load the things onto the carriage, Meng Hetang gave her 42 taels of silver: "Next time, if you have business again, please remember Meng. We can discuss the price and other things."

"Of course. After all, Boss Meng is honest."

Meng Hetang's face turned red, and he pointed at Jiang Xiaohe: "My wife is really humorous."

After saying that, he turned around and left with his things.

The villagers looked at him and started to talk: "Jiang Xiaohe is busy with house repairs all day long, and she still has time to do business."

"That's right, oh, I'm so envious!"

After watching the fun, everyone shook their heads and went back to their homes.

When Jiang Xiaohe returned home, Zeng Hua and the others gathered around immediately. There was light in everyone's eyes. After working hard for more than a month, they now had money to share, so everyone was naturally very happy.
