From the start, the Xiao family did not brew a lot of fruit wine. They only brewed it for themselves or as gifts.

Xiao Lingyu took seven to eight jars to make favors. Four jars went to Li Xuefeng, two jars went to Fan Shili, and one jar went to Zeng Yaozu. After all, Zeng Yaozu had done a lot for the supermarket.

However, after Li Xuefeng asked for two more jars, he even wanted a few dozens more. This was a bit difficult.

She needed Li Xuefeng for a favor, and he did pull through, but she wasn’t indebted to him forever. The effect of her wine was clear. If one were to calculate its value, it would be comparable to ginseng.

However, since Li Xuefeng had asked, she had to oblige. Of course, this was the last time.

“Department chief Li, the fruit wines are almost ready. I’ll arrange for people to send them to you in two days. What money? It’s not necessary. You’ve done me a huge favor. I haven’t even properly thanked you yet.” Xiao Lingyu said very politely.

Li Xuefeng smiled modestly and said, “It’s just a small favor. Besides, you’ve already given me four jars of health wine, so how can I take it for free? Boss Xiao, just tell me the price.”

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Then two hundred RMB for one jar!”

“Two hundred?” Li Xuefeng said in surprise, “Isn’t that a little too cheap? You should know that the effects of your health wine are comparable to those health products that cost hundreds of thousands or even millions.”

Xiao Lingyu raised her eyebrows in amusement and asked, “Department leader Li, do you want me to sell them for hundreds of thousands?”She paused for a moment and said, “Department leader Li, this is just the temporary price. As for how the wines will be priced in the future, it’s hard to say.”

Li Xuefeng said jokingly, “It seems that I have to order a few more jars. Otherwise, it’s hard to say if I can afford them or not in the future.” Li Xuefeng was really a prophet. In the future, the wines would reach such a sky-high price that he couldn’t afford them anymore.

Li Xuefeng ordered 20 jars at the price of 200 RMB each, and Xiao Lingyu did not say anything. The price was very low.

Not long after Xiao Lingyu hung up the phone, another call came, showing an unfamiliar number.

“Hello!” Xiao Lingyu said politely.

“I’m Fan Shili!” The other party directly introduced himself.

“Oh. Hello, Leader Fan!” Xiao Lingyu asked, “May I know why Leader Fan is looking for me…”

“Ahem…” Fan Shili asked, “Miss Xiao, may I ask if this kind of fruit wine can be taken by elderly people?”

Ever since he drank the wine, Fan Shili felt that his mental state was very good. He ate well and slept soundly. This made him think of his elders at home.

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Of course, they can. This fruit wine is suitable for both young and old! An elderly person can drink a cup before going to bed, and the effect is very good. Of course, they are still alcohol, so don’t drink too much.”

Fan Shili paused for a moment as if he was a little embarrassed to speak.

He asked, “How much is this wine of yours? I want to pay for ten jars!” At first, the wine came in mineral water bottles, but then Xiao Lingyu sent them over in black wine jars.

Xiao Lingyu said with a smile, “How could I ask Leader Fan to pay? They are not expensive. I’ll gift them to Leader Fan.”

Fan Shili shook his head and said with a smile, “No merit, no reward! No matter how cheap an item is, it’s better to buy it yourself!” Those in the government had to be very careful. One wrong step could lead to a bottomless abyss due to the concern of bribes!

Xiao Lingyu knew his concerns and did not force him. She nodded and said, “Alright, then I’d have to accept the money. This wine is 200 RMB per jar.”

“…” Fan Shili was silent for a moment when he heard the price. Then, he asked, “Is it that cheap?”

Xiao Lingyu, “…” So, everyone thinks the price is too low.

“Yes!” Xiao Lingyu replied, “That’s the price!”

Fan Shili sighed softly and said, “Alright, I’ll transfer 2,000 to you in a while!”

“The wine is not ready yet. I’ll need a few more days before I can send them to you. Leader Fan, is this alright?” Xiao Lingyu asked.

“No problem!” Fan Shili said, “I’ll have to trouble you then, boss Xiao.”

“You’re already my client. It’s no trouble!” Xiao Lingyu said.

After putting down the phone, Xiao Lingyu found it funny. The wine had unknowingly become so popular. Leader Fan would continue to popularize it. Then, a large number of people would come to order it from Xiao Lingyu. However, she would have to see how to sell them.

Xiao Lingyu returned home and said to Mother Xiao, “Mom, two people have ordered thirty jars of fruit wine!”

Mother Xiao’s eyes lit up, and she said with a smile, “It looks like I’ll have to be busy again these few days.”

Most of the time, Xiao Tong would follow Xiao Lingyu. Then, Xiao Lingyu would take advantage of the time when no one was around to put Xiao Tong into her space. This meant that Mother Xiao had a lot more free time again. She started to find work to do.

Mother Xiao asked, “Yu ‘Er, there should be thirty jars of wine still brewing. How many more do we have to brew?”

Xiao Lingyu thought for a moment and said, “Let’s brew another hundred jars!”

“Alright!” Mother Xiao agreed readily.

“Lingyu, help! Something happened!” Someone shouted outside.

Xiao Lingyu asked, “What, what? What happened?”

Mother Xiao immediately asked, “Xiao Liang, what happened?”

Xiao Liang said, “Someone went to the village chief’s house to cause trouble. I heard that it was because of the land.”

Taoyuan Village was about to be developed. There were public land and private land.

People would fight for every inch because every inch now meant money.

“Why are they going to the village chief for a land dispute?” Mother Xiao asked as she walked, “Shouldn’t these people know how large their family land should be?”

Xiao Liang said, “Sigh, this is because some villagers felt that their lands have shrunken.”

Xiao Lingyu, “…”

When it came to money, all kinds of troubles would arise.
