Chapter 165 Madam Bai, You Don’t Have to Pay

165 Madam Bai, You Don’t Have to Pay

Yu Suisheng rushed the entire journey and followed Sheng Huaixuan to settle down. Not long after, Sheng Huaixuan came with the banknotes.

After Yu Suisheng sold the Phoenix Feather Wine made from 2,500 kilograms of white wine, she immediately earned more than 20,000 taels.

Bai Wutong was quite happy. She had unintentionally made so much money from the wine.

However, it was only because Sheng Huaixuan was capable that he could sell it for so much money in such a short time.

!!

Sheng Huaixuan said, “The Phoenix Feather Wine is very popular. Madam, don’t you plan to make more?”

The mulberries, the hairy cherries, and the prickly berries were only available in spring, and it was summer.

However, plums, pears, grapes, and other fruits could all be used to make fruit wine.

Bai Wutong had expected the Phoenix Feather Wine to be popular, but she did not expect it to be so popular.

The wine store was filled with people every day demanding the Phoenix Feather Wine.

The wine seller specially went to purchase several fruit wines, wanting to try to concoct the Phoenix Feather Wine to sell.

In the end, they were unable to concoct the commoner or noble versions, let alone the special Phoenix Feather Wine.

There were some imposters who refused to give up. When people bought it, the store was quickly overturned because it was not the same taste at all.

If the Phoenix Feather Wine brewed by Bai Wutong was compared to the ambrosia in the heavens, the fake wine they sold was like fermented rotten fruits.

The difference was too great.

Therefore, more and more people wanted to know what the real Phoenix Feather Wine tasted like.

All of a sudden, the people who had bought the wine but had yet to drink it suddenly became rich.

Bai Wutong also wanted to make more wine. After all, it did not take much effort for her to bring everyone to earn money that they could not afford to earn.

Unfortunately, there were no more green oranges to be used for making the special Phoenix Feather Wine. She could not reproduce that taste without that.

Bai Wutong said, “The special Phoenix Feather Wine can’t be produced, but the nobles and commoners can. How much do you think I should make?”

They did not have any fruits, but they could collect them everywhere. If she wanted to, she could definitely make the wine.

Sheng Huaixuan said, “The special Phoenix Feather Wine seeks perfection. So the more the commoner and noble version, the better. It’s best to satisfy everyone’s needs.”

There were only about 200 people who listened to Qingfeng’s orders. They were far from being able to make the Phoenix Feather Wine that could meet the needs of the market.

However, there were actually quite a number of people in their village. It was not impossible to build a large wine workshop.

The 30 families of Qinghe had moved here. Although they had savings, almost all their ancestral assets were gone. When they saw that Yang Gongbing had built a workshop with Bai Wutong’s spray machine, and they had tried it, they wondered if they should persuade Bai Wutong to build a workshop to produce clean paper. When they found out that Yang Gongbing’s next plan was to buy the clean paper formula, everyone gave up.

Bai Wutong said, “We still have to discuss the raw ingredients, manpower and location for the wine brewing business carefully. We won’t be able to supply in large quantities for the time being.”

Sheng Huaixuan said, “If we wait until the preparations are complete, the amazing taste of the Phoenix Feather Wine will be forgotten by many people. It’s best to plan slowly and brew wine at the same time. Madam, if you let everyone bring the wine jars home, you can also brew a lot of wine.”

Bai Wutong looked at Sheng Huaixuan. His eyes shone with a shocking light. He really wanted Bai Wutong to brew the Phoenix Feather Wine to meet the market demand.

He probably genuinely liked business. Unfortunately, he chose to give it up for Stinky, or for his dignity as a human being.

Bai Wutong nodded and agreed. “What Master Sheng said is feasible. When I decide which fruits are suitable for brewing the Phoenix Feather Wine this season, I’ll tell you to buy them.”

Sheng Huaixuan smiled. “Okay.”

Suddenly, the earth-shattering cries of children could be heard.

Bai Wutong and Sheng Huaixuan looked at each other strangely and followed the sound of crying.

At the entrance of Youjia village, dozens of children were kneeling. They cried and shouted, “Madam Bai, please give us some copper coins!”

Seeing them threaten Bai Wutong like this, Little Cat was very angry. He went forward and pulled the child who had eaten rice cake at Bai Wutong’s house. “Get up, get up. Madam Bai doesn’t owe you copper coins!”

Lin Chenghai’s son, Lin Yao, stood up and pushed Little Cat away. “She owes us copper coins. She’s a liar. She sold the wine but only gave us a little! We have to let her make up for it. It has to be at least five copper coins a catty of fruit!”

He was fat and a few years older than Little Cat. Little Cat fell to the ground after being pushed and his knees were scraped. He said angrily, “You’re repaying kindness with ingratitude! Without Madam Bai, those fruits aren’t worth a penny.”

Little Cat’s words angered Lin Yao. He rode on Little Cat’s body and beat him up. “She earned so much money. Why can’t she return the fruit money to us!”

If Bai Wutong returned the money, his father would be able to buy meat for him.

Lin Yao scolded as he hit Little Cat, “You’re just jealous that our family is rich! You’re just like your paralyzed father, only having a poor life!”

Lin Yao was the overlord of the village, and no one dared to provoke him. Little Cat’s companions, who had a good relationship with him, cried his heart out. When he thought about how Madam Bai had treated them kindly, but they came to ask for money with other children, he felt that it was really not right. Guilt and sadness surged in his heart, and he immediately went forward to pull Lin Yao. “Stop fighting, stop fighting!”

How could Lin Yao care about a few little children? He sent one after another punch at Little Cat.

Although Little Cat was young and looked like he could not defeat Lin Yao at all, he was smart. He opened his mouth and bit Lin Yao’s arm. Lin Yao felt the pain and threw him away before kicking him fiercely.

Little Cat groaned, his face contorted in pain.

Lin Yao wanted to kick him again, but Qingfeng kicked him away.

As he rolled to the side, the children turned around and saw Bai Wutong and the others appear.

Little Cat said to Bai Wutong with a pale face, “Madam Bai, you don’t have to pay. Leave quickly!”

Ultimately, he was still a child. Qingfeng did not use much strength. Lin Yao got up and roared at Bai Wutong, “What do you mean she doesn’t have to pay! You have to pay! Pay for our fruits!”

Lin Yao glanced at Little Cat coldly. He had suffered so much. If he did not get the money, he would hang Little Cat up and beat him when they returned!

This child’s eyes were filled with viciousness. He was filled with schemes of an adult, which Bai Wutong disliked.

She frowned at Little Cat, who was beaten up, and shot Qingfeng a glance. Qingfeng nodded and walked toward the group of children.

Some of the children were pretending to cry just now. When they met Qingfeng’s cold gaze, they were immediately frightened to tears.

Some of the timid ones even wanted to get up and run, but when they thought about how they would be beaten up when they returned home if they did not get the copper coins, they did not dare to run.

All of them cowered their heads, making people feel strange.

Lin Yao didn’t see who kicked him just now. He mustered his courage and threatened Qingfeng, “If you dare to hit me, I’ll sue you to the authorities!”

...

Qingfeng didn’t even look at him. Instead, she reached out and picked up the disheveled Little Cat on the ground.
