At first, Geng Song had little money, so he only bought some tofu products, preserved eggs, and salted duck eggs to sell to his people. With these, he could instantly earn a lot.
He would then use his earnings to buy and sell more. Step by step, Geng Song earned quite a bit of money. Only then did he start to order larger quantities of goods and also buy products from Su’s Accessories.
His business was booming when he brought those things to his local area. People practically snatched his products away.
However, ordinary people could only afford tofu, preserved eggs, and salted duck eggs, while the dignitaries bought the accessories. The locals in that area also enjoyed eating stinky tofu and liked the embroidery shop’s accessories.
Geng Song profited and built a big house for his family. He also bought his parents and younger siblings new clothes and thicker quilts.
Then he bought charcoal from the Su family as it was cheap. That way, his parents, younger brother, and younger sister would not suffer from the cold. His family would not be afraid of winter with warm clothes and food to eat.
If there were anything delicious in Teng He Town and Su Teng Village, he would bring them to his parents and younger siblings.
He also planned to bring his family to Teng He Town to eat hotpot when the weather improved in spring because he could not bring hotpot to his home to eat.
Su Binglan nodded and said, “You’ll need wine jars to buy wine and bring it to your local area. The price of rice wine is fifteen copper coins per 500 grams. I calculate the jar prices separately, so a standard one is three copper coins, and a small one is one copper coin.”
Geng Song knew how good Su Binglan’s wine was. His people would buy it at several times the original price if he sold it to them. Of course, he would only sell the wine at a higher price to the rich and lower to ordinary people.
He knew he could collaborate with the Su family, and they sold him things because they knew he was a businessman with morals. He would not cheat ordinary people as he was also from a village. He knew the struggles of an ordinary villager, after all.
Geng Song had earned money for himself and had no reason to return to his village to harm its people. Therefore, he had principles in doing things.
Su Binglan understood this and agreed to sell her wine to him.
Geng Song was a little curious. “What does a small bottle look like?”
He knew about jars but did not know what the small bottles Su Binglan mentioned looked like. He also wondered if it was for wine.
Soon after, Su Binglan brought him to her eldest uncle’s house to look at the small bottles, and he was stunned when he saw them.
‘These small bottles look exquisite! Everyone will know how good the wine is at a glance if I use these to store wine. I can sell such exquisitely packaged wine to wealthy families at a higher price.
‘I’ll sell the wine in wine jars to ordinary people at the price of loose wine. It’ll be fair and cheap, so everyone can buy some to try.’
Geng Song planned to open a small shop at his village’s entrance. Although it would be a small shop, its business would be excellent. People from surrounding villages, including those from the town and country, would go to his shop to buy things.
Then his parents could help him oversee the shop without leaving the village, and life at home would be much better.
“These small bottles look perfect, Miss Su. Can I buy more of these from you?” Su Binglan asked, “Do you only want these small bottles?”
“I also want a few jars to make it more convenient to transport them back.
Then I’ll fill the small bottles with the wine from the jars when I reach home.”
Su Binglan thought about it for a while and said, “We use these specific bottles to store our own wine, so it won’t look the same if you only want the bottles. The price can be a little higher. It’s two coins per bottle.
“If you can wait a few days, the winery will put the wine into bottles. They’ll pack it tightly, so you won’t have to worry about dropping your cargo on the road. There won’t be a problem if you don’t drop it on purpose.”
Geng Song heard Su Binglan’s words and said, “Then I’ll do as you suggest, Miss Su. I’ll buy ten jars and twenty bottles of wine.”
He wanted to buy these first to test the waters. Then he would buy more later. Geng Song started small, so he was more cautious when conducting business.
“All right, tell my Uncle Fengzhang and the others about this later.” Su Binglan was relieved to leave the winery to her uncle.
“Yes, Miss Su.” The merchants respected Su Binglan because they could do business and profit from the things she had developed. They also admired her from the bottom of their hearts.
Geng Song felt Su Binglan’s capabilities and thought she was legendary.
When the villagers heard they could finally buy wine, they took their money and went to Su Fengzhang’s house to get some. Meanwhile, he and his son were preparing to move some things to the newly-opened winery.
When the villagers arrived, the father-son duo put down their things and went to get the wine for the villagers. Su Wenxian collected the money while his father weighed the wine for everyone.
Someone could not help but praise, “The wine smells so good!”
“Yeah, come and smell the fragrance. It’s quite enjoyable.”
Most came to buy rice wine, and very few bought fruit wine, mainly because fruit wine was more expensive. Everyone was still reluctant to spend that little bit of money.
The people who brought their wine home praised it after tasting it. Even Miss He spent fifteen coins to buy a jar of wine. She wanted Lin Chai to buy it, but he said saving as much as possible was best.
Miss He knew she could earn back the money she spent since she worked at the embroidery shop, so she wanted to treat her husband better.
Miss He thought she could earn money by working in the embroidery workshop, so she wanted to treat Lin Chai better. Now that Lin Chai could work at the winery, she was thrilled.
Therefore, she secretly bought a jar of wine and planned to cook some dishes so the whole family would be happy.
Although Lin Chai was reluctant to buy wine, he felt touched when his wife brought a jar of it home. “I told you that we should save more money. I know how hard you work at the embroidery shop.”
Since Miss He earned most of the money for the family by working at the embroidery shop, Lin Chai felt sorry for her and could not bear to spend her hard -earned money.
Miss He said, “This wine is cheap and tastes good. Everyone is buying it, so we should try it, too. We’re happy you got the winery job, so let’s eat some good food tonight.”
The couple’s two sons were home, but not Lin Shu. He was Su Wenxiu’s apprentice, learning medicine with him, so he could only come home at night. Therefore, Miss He got busy and started cooking first.
Lin Shu returned soon after his mother finished cooking, saying, “Father, Mother, I’m back.”
“You’re home a little later than usual today, aren’t you?”
“I was helping my master tidy some things up. Miss Su wants to take in female apprentices and set up a medical school.” Lin Shu habitually told his parents about his day whenever he got home.
He also wanted to make his parents happy and show them everything he had learned..
