Bab 990: Stealing from a concubine.

"Eighty taels?" The woman was so shocked that her mouth dropped to the floor, she looked at Yu Dong with a gaping expression and then said, " But I don't have the money!" If she could save eighty taels then she wouldn't be here asking Yu Dong to hand her some vegetables as charity. 

" You can't possibly be asking for the vegetables for free right?" Chen Mi spoke up bluntly from the side as he looked at the woman with a fake shocked expression on his face. " I mean the reason our vegetables taste so good is because we give our all to raise them, you might not know it but my wife takes extreme care while creating the fertilizer for the crops. The fertiliser alone costs us more than ten taels!" 

When the woman heard Chen Mi's explanation, her entire face turned stiff. A mere fertilizer costs more than ten taels? What kind of fertilizers were they making?! Did they pour gold or silver inside of it?
