Chapter 193 The reason for the urgent need for food

Xu Ning saw that Qi Canglan's expression became serious, as if the person just now was not him.

"How much do you want?" Xu Ning was not someone who could be bullied, so he became serious at this moment.

Qi Canglan's eyes flashed with surprise. Xu Ning didn't look like he was aimless. He pondered for a moment: "I need at least 100 stones."

"One hundred stones?" When Xu Ning heard this number, he immediately thought of Hai Qing.

"Yes, if possible, I hope to gather all of it within this month." Qi Canglan really needed this batch of food urgently.

Xu Ning was silent for a moment. She could certainly satisfy him. It would take about a month to ride from the south to the north city.

Of course, this is the one-way time, and Qi Canglan also knows that.

"But I don't have that much." The part bitten by the rat was her real loss, which everyone in the team knew.

"How much do you have?" Qi Canglan felt a little depressed when he heard the news. One hundred stones was still his minimum requirement.

Sure enough, it was too unrealistic for him to place his hopes on a small grain merchant.

"At most seventy shi." Xu Ning brought more than a hundred shi of grain, but one-third of it was contaminated by rat bites. Seventy shi was the final amount she could take out.

Moreover, after she took it out, the store could no longer be opened.

"Not enough." Qi Canglan frowned. Madam Fang suggested, "Why not, I'll pay for the other thirty stones."

Xu Ning and Qi Canglan looked at her immediately, and saw Madam Fang smiling gently and saying, "These thirty stones are for disaster relief. If the drought continues, I'm afraid many people will not be able to survive."

"With these thirty stones, can Alan's predicament be solved?" Mrs. Fang asked Qi Canglan gently.

"Aunt Su, I need at least one hundred dan of grain every month." Qi Canglan did not hide it. These one hundred dan of grain could only solve his difficulties this month.

"I can give you one hundred stones every month, but there is a request." Xu Ning suddenly spoke, and now their eyes were on Xu Ning.

"I bought a shop, but it seems I can't open it now, so you take over." There's no food left, so am I going to open a shop and sell air?

"No problem!" Qi Canglan originally thought that Xu Ning had bought the shop, but after asking carefully he found out that he actually rented it, and only rented it for one month.

Qi Canglan: ...I am speechless.

Xu Ning was very happy to hear that he agreed, she just didn't want to lose money.

"Let's quote the price based on the grain price in North City." Another reason why Qi Canglan was so anxious was that he could no longer buy grain in North City.

Xu Ning's eyes lit up. Three times! But she also knew that for a business to last long, it must be mutually beneficial.

"I'll give you a 20% discount as a discount for the first cooperation." Xu Ning said generously that if the cooperation goes smoothly, this price will be the same in the future.

In an instant, Qi Canglan looked at Xu Ning differently.

Pei Chen cautiously hid Xu Ning behind him. Mrs. Fang coughed twice in embarrassment, complaining in her heart that this guy wasn't afraid of scaring the child away with that look.

Xu Ning covered his mouth and laughed behind Pei Chen, I’m rich, I’m rich!

"Here, this is my family's ancestral wine, to celebrate our first successful cooperation!" That night, Xu Ning took out a bottle of wine that he had exchanged from the treasure chest, but as soon as he opened the lid, the wine and the bottle were snatched away.

"Is this wine made from grapes?" Qi Canglan asked in amazement. He had never smelled wine with such a strong aroma! And it was fruit wine!
