15. Chapter 15 The little husband standing behind the lady (2)
"You should stay here during this period and stop wandering around." Duan Qingkuang suddenly said.
"Why?" Ouyang Mingxuan felt that Duan Qingkuang's words were a bit strange.
"Need a reason?"
Duan Qingkuang's eyes glanced lightly, and Ouyang Mingxuan immediately waved his hand, "No need, not at all!"
After bidding farewell to Duan Qingkuang, it was already an hour later when Ouyang Mingxuan returned to the noodle stall.
Mu Qianye looked at him with a half-smile, which made Ouyang Mingxuan shudder.
Why was his life so miserable? He had just finished communicating with a huge fox, and when he came back, he had to face an equally cunning fox.
Ouyang Mingxuan discovered that his boss, whom he had just met, and Duan Qingkuang, really wanted you to death.
"Boss, I just went to the back to solve a personal problem." Ouyang Mingxuan explained with a guilty conscience.
Who would have thought that Mu Qianye would actually focus on Ouyang Mingxuan's lower body, "Did you knock on the widow's door or enter the oiran's room?"
"No, I mean I just had a bad stomach." Ouyang Mingxuan lowered his head, he felt so wronged.
"So long?"
"Yes, yes, my stomach has not been very good lately."
"Don't you know how to see a doctor? Why can't you take good care of your own body?"
"As the saying goes, doctors don't heal themselves." After Ouyang Mingxuan finished speaking, he looked at Mu Qianye nervously.
"Okay, let's go find the seller." Mu Qianye was too lazy to argue with Ouyang Mingxuan. If he didn't do business, it would be dark.
Mu Qianye and Ouyang Mingxuan arrived at their destination.
There are many tea farmers here who rely on tea for their livelihood.
Mu Qianye casually stopped an old man who was passing by, "Old man, may I ask, does anyone here have a tea tree?"
The old man raised his head and looked at Mu Qianye and Ouyang Mingxuan, "Everyone in this area is a tea farmer, so naturally there are some."
"Old man, we want to buy some tea trees. Is there anyone here who is willing to sell them?" Mu Qianye asked again.
"Buy tea trees?" The old man stared at the two of them inexplicably. "Tea trees are what people here make a living for. Why do you want to buy them?"
Mu Qianye naturally knows that if there is no unexpected situation, or other people's bids are very high, most people will not sell it. The tea trees have grown up, and it is the time to make money. Who would sell something that makes money?
"We are willing to pay a high price." Mu Qianye said this without hesitation.
"In this case, I have some tea trees at home. I am getting old and my son has joined the army. I can no longer take care of the tea trees. If I can sell some money to support my retirement, I would be willing to sell the tea trees." The old man hesitated and said.
"Then let's go to your house to talk to you, old man!" Mu Qianye smiled with satisfaction. Before that, she wanted to see the old man's tea trees. If the variety and quality were not good, she was determined not to buy them. She would make them.
It’s done!
"Don't we have enough money? Why do we have to ask the old man to buy it at a high price?" Ouyang Mingxuan whispered in Mu Qianye's ear.
"Lack of money is one thing, but purchasing at a high price is another." Mu Qianye shrugged.
"We don't know the price of tea trees. What if it's very expensive, boss, and we can't pay a high price?"
"I promise that I will buy the tea tree at a high price. As long as his tea tree meets my requirements, I will not treat him a penny wrong!" Mu Qianye's tone was decisive and left no room for doubt.
"It's just that you have done all the 'lady' stuff, so as a 'husband-in-law', won't it make me look useless?" Ouyang Mingxuan muttered resentfully, they were pretending to be a "husband and wife" when they went out this time!
"I'll leave it to you in a moment!" Mu Qianye smiled slightly, with a cunning light shining in his two spiritual eyes.
"No way..." Ouyang Mingxuan's mouth opened wide, "Boss, what kind of difficult and complicated diseases do you want me to treat? I'm really not good at talking about business!"
"As my 'husband', if you leave such a major issue related to your livelihood to me to discuss, aren't you afraid that others will say that your 'husband' is a little man who takes advantage of the 'wife'?" Mu Qianye laughed.
Yingying looked at Ouyang Mingxuan happily.
"Boss, I am a little man, a peerless little man. If anything happens, you have to come. You are the boss, and I will listen to you in everything!" Ouyang Mingxuan admitted defeat!
"Haha, ok, come on, hurry up, don't let me think that we two young people are not as good as him, an old man!" Mu Qianye chuckled and chased after him.
"Hey, wait for me!" Ouyang Mingxuan also quickly followed.
Following the old man, Mu Qianye and Ouyang Mingxuan came to a very dilapidated earth-yellow house. To be precise, the entire house was made of yellow mud and gravel.
"Old man, where is your tea mountain?" Mu Qianye hurriedly called to the old man who was about to enter the house.
The old man pointed to a hillside not far ahead and said, "That's the land."
"Old man, are you saying that the whole area belongs to you?" That piece of tea mountain looks not small at all, so there must be a lot of tea produced in a year.
"Yes, it's all about that one," the old man replied.
Mu Qianye frowned, "Old man, the annual harvest of such a large tea mountain will not be bad. Why do you..." Mu Qianye's eyes wandered over the earthen house that didn't look solid at all.
With such a huge tea mountain, why is life so difficult?
"If you have any questions, feel free to ask." The old man didn't know what Mu Qianye meant.
"Old man, wouldn't the annual income from such a tea mountain be good?" Mu Qianye thought about it and asked.
"It's good if you can open your mouth." The old man sighed deeply.
"Why?" There are three or six grades of tea. There are small teahouses on the roadside where you can drink all you want for a few pennies. Then there are ordinary teahouses, teahouses, and then there are some elegant places dedicated to those who spend a lot of money.
The best tea prepared by dignitaries who could afford the money was undoubtedly the tribute tea given to the current emperor.
The tea mountain looked green and green from a distance. No matter how bad the harvest was, the year's harvest would only cover one mouth. This was Mu Qianye's idea.
"Don't you know how meager the income from this kind of tea is?" The old man thought that Ouyang Mingxuan and Mu Qianye were also born in farmers' families, so they should have some understanding of this.
Ouyang Mingxuan and Mu Qianye shook their heads together.
In Ouyang Mingxuan's understanding, he probably knows which medicinal materials are more expensive than life, and which medicinal materials are difficult to find for hundreds of years.
"Looking at how young you and your wife are, if you want to buy my tea trees, let me remind you first that when we ordinary people grow tea, they are usually bought by tea merchants. The prices given by the tea merchants are very low, and usually the price is very low.
