Transmigrated To Ancient Time: Thrive With An Auction System!-Chapter 100: A Good Business ( 2 )
Seeing Chun Hua suddenly interrupt him, Cook Yang frowned and said, "Chun Hua, it’s not your place to intervene. I’m the one responsible for buying the ingredients."
Hearing this, Chun Hua wanted to argue, but when she met Cook Yang’s narrowed eyes, she could only lower her head and say, "Grandpa Yang, I’m sorry. I have overstepped my bounds."
Cook Yang ignored her and turned to Zhou Boming. "How much soy sauce do you have?" he asked. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
"Sir, my shop only has a total of 200 jin of soy sauce."
Cook Yang thought for a moment and said, "Send all the soy sauce you have over."
Zhou Boming was beaming at his words. He thought that he could only sell a few jin at most. His intention was to build a connection. Unexpectedly, he could sell everything in one go and at double the price.
"I will send it over as soon as possible."
Cook Yang nodded and opened another jar. This time, he was hit by the heavy umami taste the moment he opened the lid. He raised his eyebrows and glanced at Zhou Boming.
He never expected this merchant, who looked simple and honest, to be able to get such a good thing.
Although he was surprised, he didn’t show it on his face. "What is this, and how do you sell it?" he asked.
"Sir, this one is called fish sauce. It was made using dried fish and various seasonings. The process is long, and my store only has a total of 100 jin. It’s 5 taels of silver per jin."
The moment he finished his words, everyone took a sharp breath.
5 taels of silver! That was enough for a commoner family of 5 to live for a whole year!
Everyone stared at Zhou Boming and had the same thought. This merchant’s appetite was bigger than a mountain. He actually dared to ask for such a high price!
While everyone was shocked, Cook Yang took a taste of the sauce. He was truly stunned this time.
The sauce was salty and very flavorful. If he used it to make soup, he didn’t even have to use salt. What’s more, it was not bitter at all. Just this point alone was worth the price.
"Give me all the stock you have," he said without hesitation.
Zhou Boming never guessed that he would be able to sell everything in less than an hour. It took him a moment to regain his composure. He quickly nodded and said, "Sir, I will inform my sons and let them deliver the sauces right away."
Cook Yang nodded and took out his token. He handed the token to his apprentice and said, "You go with them and check the sauce. After the sauces are delivered, give them the money."
A young man accepted the token with both hands and said, "Yes, Master."
Following the young man, Zhou Boming left in large, light steps.
After he closed the deal, Cook Yang finally turned to Chun Hua and asked, "Did Madam have any orders for me?"
Chun Hua was unhappy as she thought about how reckless Cook Yang was. That money was hard to come by; how could he squander the money that Madam earned like that?
Although she was angry, she still had to carry the Madam’s order. So, she gave Cook Yang a list and said, "Madam asked the kitchen to prepare these things. Grandpa Yang, when the items are ready, just bring them to the front yard and inform Steward Han."
Cook Yang glanced at a young girl, and she quickly came over to take the list.
"I will prepare the items. If there is nothing else, you can go back to report," he waved his hand and returned to the kitchen.
Seeing this, Chun Hua stomped her feet and left the kitchen.
At 4 o’clock in the afternoon, Zhou Boming returned to the General’s mansion, followed by his 2 sons and several workers. They entered through the back gate and unloaded the jars.
While they carried the jars into the warehouse beside the main kitchen, Cook Yang arrived and opened the lids. He checked the sauces personally.
After they were done transporting everything, Zhou Boming left the General’s mansion with 900 taels of silver.
Even though he only got 10% of the profit, it was 90 taels of silver! Such a good business, he hoped that Yao Zhi could produce more sauces!
10 minutes later, Steward Han came over with a group of guards. Seeing the jars stored inside the warehouse, he asked, "Cook Yang, are these the sauces?"
Cook Yang nodded and said, "Steward Han, I left 5 jin of both sauces for the mansion. Send the rest of the sauce to the General."
Although his position was higher than Cook Yang’s, Steward Han still treated Cook Yang with respect. He nodded and said, "Uncle Yang, you can leave this matter to me."
"Alright."
With Steward Han personally monitoring the guards, they didn’t dare to be reckless.
The jars were loaded into carts and secured with hemp rope. Together with the items prepared by the Madam, a group of guards left the General’s mansion and went to the military barracks.
At 10 o’clock in the evening, the General’s mansion guards finally arrived at the military barracks.
This was not the first time Xue Ya’er sent things to her husband, so most of the soldiers were familiar with the guards. Seeing them, one of the guards walked over.
He glanced at the carts of items before he asked, "Sir, are you here to deliver items from the Madam?"
Su Moye nodded and took out his token. The guards checked the token and the items.
When they found nothing suspicious, they allowed them to enter the barracks, and one of the guards went to inform their Squad Leader. As small soldiers, they couldn’t meet the General personally.
So, after they reported to their Squad Leader, the news would be relayed to the centurion, who then reported to the battalion commander. Only then would the news reach the General’s adjutant and be reported to the General.
