Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 1182: Chapter 1092: The Female Prime Minister (30)

The village chief was excited for quite a while before calming down, and as soon as he calmed down, he noticed something was off.

”Shuangshuang, the price you’ve given seems a bit off, doesn’t it? Although I haven’t used Silver Frost Charcoal, I’ve heard that it sells for one silver ingot per pound in shops outside.

We’re not selling this Silver Frost Charcoal directly; we’re supplying it to merchants. It’s impossible to sell it for one silver ingot per pound, Shuangshuang dear, why are you offering such a high price to everyone?”

”There’s nothing wrong; I’ve added some spices to this Silver Frost Charcoal, so its price sells high. I make the money on the spice, but for the Silver Frost Charcoal, I’m not taking a cut; I’m giving it all to everyone.”

”This, how can we be so shameless? It shouldn’t be calculated like this, we’re not retailing Silver Frost Charcoal, it can’t be selling for one silver ingot per pound. How about you take half back, Shuangshuang dear?”

The village chief rubbed his hands awkwardly, although he wasn’t a merchant, he understood the difference between bulk selling and individual retailing.

Yin Shuangshuang shook her head and smiled, saying, ”Since the Silver Frost Charcoal is selling for a high price, let everyone calculate it at one silver ingot per pound, village chief grandpa, please tell everyone this way.”

After repeated refusals, the village chief finally accepted the price of one silver ingot per pound.

Then the village chief hurriedly called everyone to gather quickly and spread the good news, which made everyone working with Yin Shuangshuang burst into cheers.

One silver ingot per pound, almost no capital needed, just labor, these are practically pure profits.

Their good days were right in front of them, it was like becoming rich overnight, amidst excitement, everyone felt so grateful to Yin Shuangshuang that they almost wanted to kneel down and kowtow to her, though Yin Shuangshuang wouldn’t accept it.

Those who were initially hesitant to work with Yin Shuangshuang scrambled to plead with her. Yin Shuangshuang was accommodating and welcomed them all to join in.

Yin Shuangshuang aspired to benefit common people across the land in the future, so naturally, she wouldn’t fuss over a few villagers who didn’t trust her; her vision never focused on such petty matters.

Only for the Yin Family, Yin Shuangshuang couldn’t overlook their actions. Although the Yin Family also wanted to join in the Silver Frost Charcoal business, the village chief and villagers collectively resisted them.

Currently, Yin Shuangshuang’s popularity and reputation in the village exceeded the village chief, reaching a peak. After all, Yin Shuangshuang was their benefactor, leading them to good days.

The common people’s thoughts were simple: whoever leads them to good days is who they would support. The villagers knew well how the Yin Family had previously harmed Yin Shuangshuang’s family.

Back then, Old Man Yin and Yin Cheng were determined to drive Yin Zheng’s family to ruin, their ugly faces were still vividly remembered by everyone.

If it weren’t for Yin Shuangshuang’s abilities, earning money to turn the tide, the bones of her family might not have found a resting place.

Hence, the villagers spontaneously isolated those who might upset Yin Shuangshuang.

Although the Yin Family was unwilling to miss out on the Silver Frost Charcoal profits, they were effectively blocked off by the villagers and couldn’t cause any trouble for Yin Shuangshuang.

Now, whenever Yin Shuangshuang walked around, she would receive many gifts, and good things were brought to her house by villagers every day.

Various domestic fowl, eggs, and exquisite mountain products were all sent to Yin Shuangshuang’s home as tokens of gratitude, refusing to accept any money.

With the first batch of Silver Frost Charcoal sold, Yin Zheng and Yin An distributed silver to everyone in their courtyard, giving tens of snow silver ingots to each household.

Many villagers had never touched silver until now; seeing the piles of snow silver in their hands, some couldn’t believe it was real.

One villager even pinched themselves hard, shedding tears from the pain, yet the smile on their face wouldn’t fade.

A large crowd of villagers cried and laughed excitedly, eventually lifting Yin Zheng and Yin An into the air, tossing and catching them, as the village was enveloped in a sea of joy.

Every household made so much money, the village chief decided to open the ancestral hall, wanting to inscribe Yin Shuangshuang’s name for her substantial contribution to the village and the Yin family, an unprecedented honor for a woman.

No one opposed the village chief’s decision, including the village elders.

On the day the ancestral hall was opened, everyone in the village gathered, with Yin Shuangshuang wearing her best clothes, surrounded at the center.

She would be the first woman to step into the ancestral hall, to offer sacrifices to the ancestors of the Yin family.

Everyone in the village wore their finest clothes, all newly bought, without patches, for the first time.

With solemn expressions, Yin Shuangshuang held three incense sticks alone, walking in the center, step by step into the ancestral hall, offering the first incense to the ancestors of the Yin family.

Her father Yin Zheng stood beside her, following Yin Shuangshuang protectively, his eyes filled with pride as he looked at his serious-faced daughter.

Who else’s son could be more competent, capable, and make a father prouder than his daughter? Having such a daughter was enough in this life, surpassing many sons.

After the solemn and serious ancestor worship, the village plunged into a celebration. With money in hand and continuous income in the future, villagers used to living frugally were generous for once.

They bought lots of red silk, red lanterns, hanging them everywhere, slaughtered whole pigs and sheep, and even bought a cow from another village with a broken leg for a grand feast.

Every household brought out their best food, even better than during New Year’s, making the feast extremely rich. Everyone ate continuously for three days until the celebration spirit waned, then resumed working diligently.

The Silver Frost Charcoal business thrived under the County Magistrate’s Wife, and villagers earned big profits. Every household planned to build a new house after spring, with grand designs.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Yin Shuangshuang drew design plans, preparing to design village houses into rows of classical villas, constructing neat lines and roads.

As soon as the design appeared, the villagers loved it. Such beautiful houses were dream-like, but now, they didn’t need to dream; they had the silver to build them.

As they earned more, villagers became more generous, their days improved, and Yin Shuangshuang’s status heightened. When she went out, she was well-protected, as villagers voluntarily watched over her fragile health.
