87 Anticipation


    The wild bees did not produce much honey. Moreover, Qiao Xuan did not work too hard on it, so in the end, she harvested more than 50 kgs of wild honey and 9 kgs of beeswax.


    Qiao Xuan kept around 1.5 kg of honey and decided to sell the remaining 50 kgs.


    Nine kg beeswax, plus the nt oil, almond oil as well as purified red-colored flower juice would make at least 2,350 lipsticks at least.


    How much did that mean? Qiao Xuan looked as if she had already seen moneying her way.


    With this amount of money, she was going to buy morend and open stores.


    !!


    In the beginning, she would do everything in secret. She did not intend to show up as the owner. She could not let Madame Qiao learn about this. When she became powerful enough that she went beyond Madame Qiao’s influence, she would establish business rtionships with some big businessmen with strong backgrounds. In this way, she would have nothing to fear in the future.


    Most importantly, it would be great if Shao Yunduan could make it to Advanced Schr level!


    If he cleared it, she would be protected as well. By that time, even her bad father would not dare do a thing to her, let alone Madame Qiao.


    Advanced Schr was different from Cultivated Talent. He could rece the official position of a minor County Magistrate. With some rtionships and achievements, he could even be the head of a county.


    So, even if her father wanted to do something about him, he could not possibly win by using small tricks. He would need to report him to the government office where the head supervised the whole case.


    Qiao Xuan believed that Madame Qiao would try and do some tricks, but her father would not.


    What if her father’s bad deeds were revealed, it would be the end of his career! He was not stupid enough to do something detrimental to himself.


    In his eyes, Shao Yunduan was his son-inw, and when Shao Yunduan became sessful, he had to pay respect to him, otherwise his name would be ruined and Shao Yunduan would not help him in the future.


    In fact, if Shao Yunduan became sessful, he would get extra help with rtionships in the office, and that would make him really happy. Hence, he would not allow Madame Qiao to y any tricks.


    Therefore, as long as Shao Yunduan made it to Advanced Schr, it would be the starting of his flourishing career. That made Qiao Xuan feel really excited.


    50 kgs of honey filled up threerge porcin jars.


    Everyone was so happy. It would earn them a lot of money.


    So on this day, when Shao Yunduan was going to the school in the capital, they rented a bullock cart and everyone went there together.


    Shao Xiaoqi and Shao Taotao, as well as Ms. Fang tagged along.


    Ms. Fang had another purpose, that of buying some things needed for Shao Sang’s wedding.


    Honey was going to be sold to the pharmacies.


    Many side materials used at the pharmacy needed honey. Moreover, some precious materials would be soaked in wild, authentic honey so as to be preserved well.


    For example, ginseng, the best fresh wild ginseng, was sliced and cut into sections, soaked in pure wild honey and sealed, so that it could be stored for seventy or eighty years without any loss of efficacy.


    Qiao Xuan went to one of the two big pharmacies in the capital with her family, and the manager showed them to the backyard. He tasted the honey and was shocked.


    “How did you get so much honey?”


    Wild honebs were very difficult to find.


    Their clinic needed wild honey throughout the year, and inte spring and summer, they would hire specialists to seek honey in the mountains. Normally, they would at most get 100-150 kgs. Sometimes they would get even less than 100 kgs.


    Qiao Xuan smiled. “Just good luck. Manager, are you buying the honey? If not, we will sell it somewhere else.”


    Manager smiled, as he saw the beautiful married woman in front of him. “It is a long way for you toe to this ce, we will take it…”
