Chapter 513: Chapter 513: The Sun Family Slaps the Face
The purpose of the Sun Family today is simple: to propose marriage to Qiao Changshun.
When Tong Tiehu dared to step forward, she would drag out the bean sprout method, let the Tong Family’s reputation be damaged, and left Tong Tiehu speechless.
Of course, if she could take the opportunity to tarnish Qiao Xiaomai’s reputation, she would be more than happy.
So, when she heard Zhang Family’s words, even though they were a slap in her face, she wished she could shout it out for everyone in the village to hear.
“Shut up!” Qiao Changshun said, stomping his foot angrily.
He unconsciously held the vine stick in his hand.
Seeing this, Sun Family took a few steps forward, pointed at her own face with her left hand that wasn’t holding a fan, and said, “Go ahead, hit me if you dare!”
The hand Qiao Changshun was holding the vine stick with was shaking uncontrollably, his eyes turned red with anger, but when he looked at Sun Family’s face, he couldn’t bring himself to hit her.
Seeing this, Sun Family snorted, then turned her gaze to Zhang Family and Tong Tiehu. “Village Chief, if nothing else, you may go back. Qiao Changshun and I are discussing marriage plans. He’s a bit shy, you watching him will make him uncomfortable.”
Her words served as a step for Tong Tiehu to concede.
Tong Tiehu clenched his teeth, hesitation rising in his heart.
To go, or not to go, that was the question.
If he left, Sun Family’s previous accusations about the Tong Family overcharging remain unclarified. All the villagers were watching. They must have doubts in their mind.
However, if he didn’t leave, Sun Family would definitely make a fuss and force him to reveal the bean sprout method.
Once the method of making bean sprouts got revealed, and the yield that Zhang Family claimed as eight tael was told to be four tael, it would solidify the accusation of the Tong Family overcharging.
Thinking of this, Tong Tiehu couldn’t help but glare at Zhang Family.
Idiot!
Compromising the family’s reputation for a bit of money!
When the price of bean sprouts was being determined, he suggested going with the same price as Qiao Xiaomai’s.
But this met with objections from the entire family. Making one cent profit from eight tael of soybeans was too less, they said.
Therefore, he slightly increased the price, wanting to set it at two cents for three tael.
According to this calculation, the profit would be a bit higher. But the calculation was too complicated and was opposed by the entire family.
Eventually, they set the price of bean sprouts at one cent per tael.
If they sold eight tael, they would make five cents profit.
Does that seem too much? It may not be a lot in the town, but in the village, it is.
That’s why, they made a false statement in front of the whole village, and now they were accused by Sun Family of overcharging.
Over a dozen villagers were listening; they all needed an explanation.
“Sun Family, you said we are ripping you off, but what proof do you have? What proof?” Tong Tiehu hesitated, but Zhang Family made a quick decision: she would never admit it.
If Sun Family insists they are overcharging, she needed to provide evidence, otherwise it was slander.
Sun Family said she wanted to buy the method, but they wouldn’t sell
She insisted she wouldn’t sell it, and there was nothing Sun Family could do.
Looking at Zhang Family’s annoying face, Sun Family snorted, “I’ll pay 500 taels to buy your bean sprouts method. The method is your evidence!”
“We plan to pass this method onto future generations and we cannot sell. If we keep it within the family and pass it on for generations, we’ll make tens of thousands of taels. Are you trying to dismiss me with just 500 taels?” Zhang Family argued back.
“Tens of thousands of taels? I can’t believe you have the audacity to say this! If you don’t sell the method, it shows your guilt, and that you’re ripping off our fellow villagers!” Sun Family snorted and said loudly, “Listen, everyone! If, as the Tong family said, one tael of soybeans only yields four tael of bean sprouts, then Xiaomai was selling them at a loss at two cents per tael. Can everyone get their heads around that?!”
She didn’t want to bring up too many issues, and just wanted to have a good chat with Qiao Changshun about the proposal. But since Zhang Family insisted on arguing with her, she would undoubtedly jump out and fight back.
