Chapter 134： Demand exceeds supply

Yang Santie stammered: "One or two silver! Auntie, how much did you spend to buy this paper?"

Jiang Ning was afraid of scaring them, so he pretended to be mysterious and shook his head, "This paper took a lot of effort and was not easy to get. Don't ask! It was originally prepared for you, but now I'm afraid it will be a waste for you to use. I'll continue to find an dealer to buy it for you. Ordinary hemp paper for practicing. If anyone in the school wants paper, just agree, I can supply it here."

With one scroll or two, she seemed to have seen the wealth waving towards her.

Yang Santie looked at Jiang Ning with bright eyes, "Auntie, I also want to make money. Can I sell paper in the school?"

"Huh?" Jiang Ning frowned subconsciously, "You don't want to study hard and still want to do business?"

Yang Santie shook his head quickly, "I didn't! It doesn't conflict. I will still study hard. Mom, is that okay?"

Jiang Ning was reluctant.

Yang Santie kept winking at Yang Sizhuang.

Yang Sizhuang said helplessly: "Auntie, if Third Brother wants to sell it, just let him do it. Don't worry, I'll watch and I won't let him delay his studies. Moreover, if you ask him to sell paper, he doesn't have to think about it all day long. With money, I can live a better life.”

Jiang Ning's face suddenly darkened, "Yang Santie, didn't I just give you twenty cash? In those five days, you also earned more than a dozen cash in the workshop, and you spent all of it?"

Yang Santie took a small step back guiltily, "Aniang! I didn't spend money randomly."

“Third brother really didn’t spend money randomly. He just has too many friends and always likes to make himself fat. He even used my money!” Yang Sizhuang gave Yang Santie eye drops by the way.

Jiang Ning’s face became increasingly ugly.

Just as she was about to scold Yang Santie, two students rushed in from outside.

Yang Santie suddenly turned around and asked in surprise: "Brother Haining, brother Yongnian, why are you here?"

Gong Haining and Hua Yongnian bowed to Jiang Ning, but stopped talking.

Yang Santie understood and cautiously said to Jiang Ning, "Mom, I'll go out with them for a while, and you can scold me later."

Yang Santie really went out for a while and came back soon with an excited look on his face, "Auntie, Auntie, the two of them want to buy ten rolls of rice paper, can you afford it?"

“Ten volumes? So many!” Yang Sizhuang was shocked.

Yang Santie nodded excitedly, "That's right! Anyway, their families are not short of money. They said that all the students in the school knew that Mr. Ming got a roll of high-quality rice paper, even worse than Qingzhou rice paper." , Hua Yongnian’s family runs an inn, and Gong’s family does big business. It would be absolutely elegant and decent to buy it as a gift.

Gong Haining said so, and he also had selfish motives. After all, even Mr. Ming couldn’t put it down. If he could use the same paper as Mr. Ming, everyone would be envious. "

Jiang Ning came back to his senses and looked at Yang Santie with a complicated expression, "You have a good relationship with them?"

"It's not bad! We are all classmates. We meet each other without looking up. After a while, we become friends!" Yang Santie said carelessly.

Jiang Ning sighed helplessly, "Okay, if you want to sell it, sell it. I will give you ten cents for each roll. The premise is that you can't delay your studies. If you let me know that you are neglecting your studies to do business, I won't let you start next year." Come to school to study.”

Yang Santie jumped up immediately.

Yang Sizhuang also laughed. Naturally, the small movements between the two children could not be hidden from Jiang Ning's eyes. She just pretended not to see it and muttered: "Did they say when they wanted it?"

Yang Santie shook his head, "I told them that you will send them paper the next time you come to see us, and they will pay then. They are worried that something will change then, so they gave me a deposit of one tael."

Speaking, he hurriedly presented the silver respectfully.

Jiang Ning accepted the money, twitched the corner of his mouth, and stood up and said: "Okay, I'll go back first. You guys study hard and count the days. The quiz is about to start. If you lose the grade, I will charge you. He should be penniless now!”

At one word, both children became weak and hurriedly picked up the books.

After Jiang Ning returned home, she immediately went into the mountains to pull bark. After experiments, she already knew which kind of bark made the best quality paper. This is a long-term business, with complex production processes and long cycles, requiring a lot of work at once. Make some.

After pulling the bark off the trees, she had to continue making paper and picking mushrooms on the mountain. She was so busy that she felt dizzy.

After finally collecting twenty rolls of rice paper, she went to Mapo non-stop again. This time she had just entered the school building, and someone came to her before her **** was hot. First, Gong Haining and Hua Yongnian came to take away ten rolls. , followed by Lao Mo. When he saw that Jiang Ning had brought so much, he originally wanted to pack it all in one go, but there were still people waiting in line behind him eagerly.

Lao Mo had no choice but to take only five volumes and sell the remaining five volumes to other students. This time, he got twenty taels. Although Yang Santie had nothing to do with selling the paper this time, Jiang Ning still gave him two hundred taels.

Yang Santie received so much money for the first time, he smiled like a fool, he couldn't even see it.

Yang Sizhuang shook his head speechlessly and said to Jiang Ning: "Auntie, we passed the quiz again this time. The teacher said that if we work harder this year, we are expected to enter Class A next year."

"Okay, okay! You guys know that you can work hard and make progress, so you can rest assured!" When Jiang Ning heard the news, he was happier than if he had earned twenty taels.

Since Yang Santie did not receive orders in advance, she planned to deliver twenty rolls every month in the future, so that she would have extra time to do other things.

Amidst all the busy work, August has arrived in a blink of an eye.

In ten days' time, the college examination will be held. Normally, the requirements for the college examination have been released, and all the students who are about to leave have to prepare their luggage and set off for the capital city. However, there is no news this year.

 Qian Jinmen came back from the county. As soon as he entered the door, he was chased by Old Man Qian and Mrs. Chen asking for news.

“What did the county captain say?”

Qian entered the door and frowned, "I didn't see the county captain at all, and even Lao Tian next to him didn't show up. I asked the Yamen, but the Yamen couldn't explain clearly. I went to Tang Xiucai's school again. , I waited outside for a long time before the scholars came out. After asking, they couldn’t tell clearly. Everyone is waiting for news from Fucheng. "

Old man Qian was extremely disappointed and couldn't help complaining: "Didn't you say that Old Tian is your good brother who hurts you? Why can't you even see him now?"

"How do I know? There is no one at home! Maybe he went out on errands." Qian walked in and turned around impatiently and entered the house.

Mrs. Tian brought him a cup of hot water very considerately, "Since there is no news from the county government, let's go to the inn and restaurant to inquire. Maybe those merchants from the capital can know something about our son's future. I hope is you!"

These words were very useful, and the frown on his face relaxed a lot, "Don't worry, I'll ask again later. If it doesn't work, let's go to Fucheng with the child. No matter what, we can't delay the hospital examination. Also. Yes, is there any news about your nephew?”

Tian's face turned gloomy, with a glint in his eyes, "I don't know, maybe he died outside, so we can get back the things my eldest brother left behind."
