Chapter 446: Chapter 446: Making Big Money 3

She turned to Su Qingyue, “It’s all your fault!”

Su Qingyue raised her eyebrows, “What do you blame me for?”

“If it weren’t for you making money by selling the stir-fried fern, would the guys have been fighting to forage for fern? And you’ve also caused everyone’s ferns to be unsalable…”

After Qian Zhangshi said it, everyone felt angry and glared at Su Qingyue with dissatisfaction.

Su Qingyue sneered, “Did I tell you to go foraging? You were just envious that I made money. Take responsibility for your own actions. I blame you for foraging for all the ferns in the surrounding mountains, forcing me to sell the stir-fried fern recipe. Otherwise, I would be selling stir-fried fern every day, making money every day. And I don’t want you to block my financial path!” She also didn’t mention that the fern season was almost over, and not much money could be made from it anyomore.

Hearing this, everyone felt that it made sense.

Zhang Shun, being a sensible person, said, “Wife of the Xiao Family is not wrong. We were just envious of her making money. She didn’t ask us to forage for ferns.”

Wang Cuihua also helped to reason, “That’s right, we can’t blame anyone if the ferns we foraged for can’t be sold. If we can’t sell it, just eat it ourselves.”

“It’s so astringent…nobody likes to eat it.” Ding Er waved his hand, “Alright, let’s just consider these days as being busy for nothing. Taking it home to feed the pigs is also an option, and it can go to waste if it doesn’t work.”

More than twenty people who couldn’t sell their fresh ferns shook their heads and sighed.

While Su Qingyue was in town, she had already inquired that because ferns have an astringent taste when stir-fried, only those who are extremely poor would stir-fry ferns as vegetables and endure the taste. Because everyone believed the astringent taste couldn’t be removed, the whole country hadn’t thought about processing ferns.

Therefore.

The real fortune wasn’t in the stir-fried ferns, but in what followed.

Zhang Shun said, “Wife of Xiao Family, you don’t know it, but not only in our village but also in the nearby villages, a lot of people can’t sell their fern.

Everyone is preparing to feed it to pigs and other livestock.”

“Wife of the Xiao Family, you’re famous now!” Ding Er also said, “The people in the town know that the Rich Source Tavern bought your recipe for fifty taels…everyone says you’ve made a fortune…”

Qian Zhangshi persisted, “Wife of the Xiao Family, why don’t you just share the stir-fried fern recipe, so that everyone can also fry and sell it, so it won’t go to waste at home.”

“Everyone knows that I took fifty taels from the Rich Source Tavern. I promised them not to reveal the recipe. If I do…”

“Qian Family, you better not exploit Qingyue…” Wang Cuihua couldn’t stand Qian Zhangshi, “What’s the big deal about us farmers putting in a few days of work for nothing.”

“You really help Su Qingyue a lot.” Qian Zhangshi coldly snorted, “Wang Cuihua, didn’t you also forage a lot of fresh fern? Can’t sell it, are you comfortable with that?”

Cuihua didn’t speak.

Among the people who returned, Ding Er’s trip to the town to sell ferns was in vain. He couldn’t sell them, and he didn’t feel good about it. “Ah, if I had gone a bit earlier, I could’ve sold them for half a cent per jin. But I was just a little late, and the Rich Source Tavern stopped buying. Half a cent per jin would’ve been nice…”

“Let me just say this… it’s my fault.” Su Qingyue said, ‘Everyone knows I made fifty taels of silver from selling the recipe. Actually, when you all asked me about it before, I said I had spent all the money because I didn’t want certain people to keep thinking about how much I made. I still have dozens of taels. Let me share some good news, I didn’t want everyone to work for nothing. When I was selling ferns in town….”
