Manager Han said, "A pound of soybeans costs six coins!"

As soon as Jiang Zhinian heard the price, he knew what it was.

The price is acceptable, and the key is that the bean sprouts are fresh vegetables.

It’s something that everyone has never eaten before, so the price won’t be low.

One pound of soybeans can produce about ten pounds of bean sprouts, and the cost is six cents, which is ten pounds of bean sprouts.

And it requires no cost, it is a sure-win business.

Jiang Zhinian asked: "How many soybeans are on your ship?"

"It's loaded with more than 20,000 kilograms!"

Their ships were large, with sacks of soybeans piled on board.

Fortunately, Jiangzhou is not far from here.

"Manager Han, to be honest, it's not worth the trip for you to bring these things to Beijing."

Manager Han didn't expect to hear these words, so he said truthfully, "To be honest, Madam, my young master heard that the capital was collecting grain, so he asked me to bring these soybeans to the capital to sell."

"In the beginning, it wasn't for the purpose of making a lot of money. I just wanted to use these to explore the way and open up the market in the capital."

"Besides, this year, merchants from other places did not go to Jiangzhou to collect goods. Soybeans were worthless if they could not be sold in Jiangzhou. People wanted to sell their soybeans in exchange for food, so the Han family collected their soybeans and sold them to other places."

The capital city is too big, with many noble families and merchants, and there is no difficulty in selling things like grain.

Jiang Zhinian smiled and said, "Manager Han is telling the truth."

"Our young master said that doing business requires integrity, and only then can the business continue for a long time."

Moreover, the young master is very cautious when selecting cooperative merchants and attaches great importance to the merchant's character.

The lady in front of me looked very dignified and her manner of speaking was also extraordinary.

He told her the price, and normally people would try to bargain for it, but this lady didn’t.

Moreover, he has his own vision when it comes to doing business and dealing with people. This lady must be a very capable person.

Jiang Zhinian listened to these words and did not act pretentiously, "Do you have any other food on board?"

"Yes, yes. We also have rice, corn, glutinous rice, etc."

Manager Han looked at the lady and wondered if she was going to buy everything.

Judging from her attire and her elegant demeanor, she should be able to eat all this food.

"Can I take a look?"

"Yes, the goods of our Han family caravan are guaranteed, there will be no problem."

Manager Han brought Jiang Zhinian and the others on board and let them take a look.

Jiang Zhinian took a closer look and found that they were indeed very good, and the prices were also reasonable and within her acceptable range.

She had been hoarding and purchasing food.

Jiang Zhinian asked some questions and said, "Manager, I have bought all these soybeans, grains and sugarcane."

"I hope the steward can give me a discount!"

Manager Han was extremely surprised, and after being surprised he became very excited.

They had just arrived in the capital and had not even disembarked, but all the grain and sugarcane on the ship were sold out.

Manager Han was also very happy and gave a 10% discount directly.

Originally, the young master just wanted to sell these things, and use them to explore whether there are any good trade routes and cooperative merchants in the capital.

If this trip goes smoothly, the Han family caravan will transport goods from Jiangzhou to the capital to do business in the future.

Business in Beijing is very difficult.

Because there are many noble families in the capital, many big businesses are supported by nobles.

Others dare not move easily.

But once the Beijing market is opened, not only will the products be easy to sell, but the profits will also be considerable.

Since both parties were very straightforward, they quickly reached a cooperation agreement.

Fortunately, Jiang Zhinian had enough silver notes with him to buy all of them at once.

Jiang Zhinian asked Lian Qiao to call Jiang Chai, and then asked Zheng Daniu to load a carriage with goods and go to the farm to find someone, and then find a few carriages to come and quietly bring these grain and goods from different roads in batches.

Food is useful to her, not only for eating, but also for storing.

The capital city is close to the north and mainly grows wheat and corn, but rice is produced in abundance in Jiangzhou.

It’s a good opportunity to use glutinous rice to make some rice-based food for Zhizhi to taste.

Of course, while waiting for the carriages to transport the goods in batches on different roads, Jiang Zhinian also asked Manager Han some questions.

"Jiangzhou has had a lot of rain this year, and crops are growing very well."

"But what Jiangzhou fears most is floods. Once a flood occurs, not only will the food not be preserved, but many people will also be killed or injured."

"I heard from the young master that in the past, officials in Jiangzhou would strengthen the defenses every year to prevent excessive rain from flooding the river."

"In recent years, Mr. Zhao has served as the governor of Jiangzhou..."

Speaking of this, Manager Han didn't dare to say much.

Everyone knows that Lord Zhao was convicted of corruption and has been taken to the capital to be beheaded. No one knows whether Lord Zhao has reinforced the dam as usual.

In fact, the Han family understood that there was nothing, but they couldn't say such things casually.

He just found out that this was the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Zhongyong, and now the wife of the Marquis of Yongping.

This is a noble family, and merchants like them are not often seen.

With such a background and power, Manager Han knew that his business was stable.

He estimated that the next time, the young master would come to Beijing in person to discuss business with Miss Jiang.

This is what Miss Jiang meant just now. In the future, grain and sugarcane can be transported to the capital and we can buy as much as we can.

However, this Miss Jiang doesn't seem to like others calling her Madam.

Manager Han didn't ask too many questions, but he probably understood something.

Manager Han was actually quite surprised. He didn't know what Miss Jiang was going to do with the sugarcane she bought.

These sugarcanes are sold as snacks at street stalls in Jiangzhou, and children chew on them.

……

It was not until dark that all the things were pulled to Zhuangzi's side.

Jiang Zhinian finally felt relieved.

Jiang Zhinian also moved into the manor that night.

Lian Qiao was very excited sitting in the carriage.

"Madam, are all these soybeans going to be used for spring planting?"

"Ma'am, I took a look and the soybeans are all good."

Can be used as seeds.

Jiang Zhinian said: "No, soybeans are used to grow bean sprouts, and they will sprout in a few days."

Jiang Zhinian planned to distribute 1,000 kilograms of soybeans first, and then distribute the second batch after selling them.

It is impossible to export 20,000 kilograms of soybeans at once.

She will be more cautious in doing things.

"Grow bean sprouts?"

Lian Qiao has never heard of this saying.

"Yes, I will go to the farm later and arrange for someone to soak a thousand kilograms of soybeans first."

"Let Zheng Dali arrange a few people to do these things, and keep it secret!"

Everyone in the village had signed a contract, and she checked them all, and there were no major problems.

Moreover, there are many people with the surname Zheng and Lin in the village, and most of them are relatives.

Zheng Dali is Zheng Daniu's cousin.

"Ma'am, what about the sugar cane?"

"Sugar cane, I use it to make sugar!"

"sugar?"

Lian Qiao felt ashamed that she knew nothing.

But she was even more surprised in her heart, "Madam, sugar and other things are very expensive. The cheapest sugar costs more than a hundred coins per pound."

Even at street stalls, a piece of maltose costs two cents.

Jiang Zhinian knew that, so when she saw sugarcane, she thought about making sugar.

The reason why I know this is because of what I saw and learned after I died in my previous life.

“This type of sugarcane has a high sugar content, so it is easy to make sugar.”

Lian Qiao said excitedly: "Madam is really amazing. She even knows all this."

Jiang Zhinian smiled faintly. If she hadn't been reborn after death, she wouldn't have understood these things.

You don’t know how big this world is.

As they were talking, they arrived at Zhuangzi's side.

Just as I was about to arrange for someone to soak the soybeans, I heard someone at the gate excitedly saying, "Lin Dayong is back, Lin Dayong and the others are back!"

Jiang Zhinian's expression changed. He's back?

She came back just in time, so she doesn’t have to worry about these soybeans anymore.

I also wanted to ask about my grandfather and the others’ situation.

The letters only contain brief things.

She wanted to know some details.
