Wu Lan's intention in saying this was to prepare the girl in front of her that their Golden Sakura could not be priced below this amount.
However, Guo Dong paused for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"Auntie, I'm guessing that 30 yuan per jin is just a gimmick, and you won't easily get that price."
She was telling the truth: "Like us, when following herbal merchants to Traditional Chinese Medicine production areas, the price of processed Golden Sakura can range from 30 to 80 yuan per kilogram, depending on the quality. 70 yuan would already be the price for top-quality late harvest dried fruit."
"Kilogram? Late harvest?"
Wu Lan's dreams shattered in an instant.
"Mhmm." Guo Dong earnestly explained, "The harvest of Golden Sakura is divided into early, mid, and late harvest. The early harvest consists of immature small fruits with the lowest quality. The late harvest comprises naturally matured, golden-red large fruits, which are dried and processed for sale like this."
