This statement left the head of the Xie Family momentarily stunned.
Among those present, he was the least influential, yet Qiao Xiaomai was the first to call his name, and it was for this matter.
To be honest, being able to order his son to rush to the manor to pre-order watermelons first thing proved he was a foodie. In the past few days, he had been staying at home reminiscing about the sweet taste of watermelon. He hadn't expected what he longed for to come knocking, and Qiao Xiaomai actually brought it up herself!
His spirits lifted, he hurriedly asked, "What's the price for the watermelon?"
"Fifty taels silver per catty including the rind, the price is firm," Qiao Xiaomai held out five fingers and shook them.
This price was only half of last year's. Given the current situation, it would be impossible to sell them at last year's high prices.
