The Farmer‘s Eldest Daughter Has a Spatial Pocket

Chapter 189 - 189: Peng Zhongfei, the Fence Sitters



When Liu Wei saw his eyes rolling around, he knew that this guy was definitely up to no good.

Sure enough, in the next moment, he heard Tao Xing point at Gu Yundong and say, “I admit that this white sugar is real. But our bet was that you could make such snow-white white sugar. Can you guarantee that you really made this white sugar and you didn’t find it from somewhere?”

Gu Yundong did not expect the fire to burn her. She glanced at Liu Wei and nodded. “I made it. Do you want me to swear?”

“What’s the use of swearing?” Tao Xing snorted. “Why don’t you do it again in front of all of us? That way, we will believe that you created this thing.”

Gu Yundong was so angry that she almost laughed. In front of everyone? How could he say that?

However, the surrounding people did not mind the commotion and started to jeer. “That’s right, that’s right. Make it again in front of everyone so that we can see how this white sugar came about.”

Tao Xing proudly looked at Liu Wei provocatively.

Unexpectedly, he had only been smug for two seconds when he heard an unexpected voice. “Then why don’t you tell everyone the secret recipe of your Tao family’s wine in front of everyone once? Let everyone see if your family brewed it. Otherwise, how would we know where your family bought it from?”

The Tao Family mainly operated a winery that had been around for many years. It had been passed down from their ancestors for more than a hundred years.

Tao Xing frowned and turned around. He saw Peng Zhongfei standing up and tidying his clothes.

Peng was indeed unreliable. Wherever there was benefit, he would change sides.

In fact, Peng Zhongfei was not the only one. Many people present saw the benefits brought by the white sugar. At this moment, they felt that there was no need to become enemies with the Liu family and this girl. Hence, they nodded one after another. “That makes sense. The formula of the white sugar must be a complicated secret. I don’t know how much effort it took to create it. How can it be publicized in front of everyone?”

Duan Jingyuan also smiled and said, “Young Master Tao has admitted to this white sugar, and you didn’t say that they have to publicize the secret recipe in front of everyone when you made the bet back then. Now, you’re finding all kinds of excuses to make things difficult for others. Are you trying to go back on your word?”

“That won’t do. Everyone is watching. Is the Tao family so untrustworthy?” Liu Wei laughed out loud. He deliberately made it sound more serious. He didn’t believe that if the matter had already escalated to the Tao family, he would still dare to make excuses.

As expected, Tao Xing’s face darkened. He immediately laughed dryly. “Of course, the Tao family won’t go back on their word. I didn’t consider everything just now and said something I shouldn’t have said. I, Tao Xing, will keep my word and fulfill the bet.”

Liu Wei flipped up his right hand. “The contracts.”

Tao Xing gritted his teeth and lowered his head slightly. His eyes became gloomy.

He asked the servant behind him to bring the contracts over and personally handed them to Liu Wei.

Liu Wei flipped through them in front of everyone. After reading them again and again, he was finally satisfied. “Don’t forget to visit the government later.”

With that, he turned around and left.

However, just as he took a step forward, he suddenly stopped as if he had thought of something.

Then, he took out the white sugar in his hand. “I almost forgot. Back then, your shopkeeper said that he would buy this white sugar back at ten times the price. It’s just right. Twenty catties for eighty taels of silver.”

Tao Xing was stunned. This white sugar… was a rare thing. It was not a bad idea to buy it back.

However, 80 taels was too expensive. Just as he was about to say that Liu Wei had scooped out a bowlful previously and wanted to lower the price, a voice suddenly sounded in his ear. “I’ll pay 100 taels. Give me these 20 catties of white sugar..”
