Chapter 394: Selling Treasures

Translator: Lonelytree 

Lin Dawei pondered for a while, but he still asked in confusion, “isn’t this being the middleman?” Being a middleman required the government’s permission. Plus, one had to be a merchant.

Lin Yuelan shook her head and said, “uncle Wei, I’ll only buy the land that you bought. We’re only doing business exclusively with each other. We don’t need to involve the government.”

“But…”

Lin Yuelan stopped him and offered another perk, “Uncle Wei, do you think I can work all that land on my own?”

Lin Dawei shook his head. Then, he reacted and said in surprise, “Wait…”

Lin Yuelan nodded and said, “that’s right. At that time, I can hire brother Jiawei to be my family’s supervisor and give him a salary every month.” But how was this different from selling his son to be someone else’s slave?

Just as Lin Dawei was about to object, Lin Yuelan said, “uncle Wei, I know what you’re worried about. I’ll hire bother Jiawei as the supervisor, not as a slave.”

Lin Dawei thought about it and realized it was a good arrangement. His son wouldn’t have to face danger all the time, and they could also ensure a source of income.

Lin Dawei nodded and said, “alright, I agree. However, I don’t need an extra 2 taels per Mu. That’s too much. You only need me 500 copper for each Mu. That’s enough for me.”

Lin Yuelan thought that 500 copper coins were too little, so after much persuasion, she finally completed the deal with a commission of one tael per mu.

Lin Yuelan gave three hundred taels to Lin Dawei for him to buy fields.

Lin Yuelan pinched the bank notes in her hand and sighed to the sky, “why is it that the more I earn, the less money I have? My house! It looks like I’ll have to sell some herbs to raise more money.”

It took money to build a house, so the next day, Lin Yuelan went to the town alone again, bringing along the wine that she had forgotten to give to shopkeeper Lin yesterday.

This time, she carried the herbs grown in bots. She placed the pots in a basket, took the wine jars, and went to town on the oxcart.

Ever since Lin Yuelan had bought this cow, she would usually feed it some spirit water, and it had gained some minor sentience. Therefore, it didn’t need to be driven. It knew the way.

When they arrived at the Lin family Medicine shop, the attendant saw Lin Yuelan and greeted her. Then, he immediately ran to the back hall to find the shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper Lin came out very quickly.

As soon as he saw Lin Yuelan, his eyes brightened. He laughed and said, “girl, it has been quite some time since you were last here.”

Lin Yuelan replied with a smile, “hehe, it’s only been half a month. That’s not a long time, is it?” In fact, it had almost been a month.

The two of them quickly went to the inner hall.

Shopkeeper Lin immediately said joyfully, “Girl, I’ve already sold that ginseng to a family in the outer town for 800 taels.” He had thought that he would only be able to sell it for six hundred taels and earn a hundred taels at most from the difference. Now that he had earned a difference of three hundred taels, he was also happy.

Lin Yuelan smiled and said, “Congratulations, Uncle Lin!”

Shopkeeper Lin laughed and said, “Girl, it’s all thanks to you.”

Who said that this child was a jinx? Ever since he started cooperating with Lin Yuelan, he had been earning more money. With the two transactions with this child, he had earned almost a year’s worth of his usual net profit.

Shopkeeper Lin laughed a few times before he asked curiously, “Girl, I’m sure you didn’t come here without reason. Tell me, did you get a new treasure this time?”

As he spoke, he glanced at the jar in Lin Yuelan’s hands.

He thought that this was the treasure that Lin Yuelan wanted to sell.

Lin Yuelan also noticed shopkeeper Lin’s gaze. She handed the small wine jar in her hand to shopkeeper Lin and said, “this is a kind of fruit wine that I brewed. I’m giving it to you as a gift.”

Although the wine jar was sealed, Shopkeeper Lin’s nose had always been very sensitive since he sold medicinal herbs. He had long smelled the fragrance coming from the wine jar and knew that it was something good.
