The bookstore could also sell ink.
Ye Muyu first gave a deposit of thirty taels of silver and confird that she would co to collect the goods seven days later.
All the books would cost 350 taels to print.
Ye Muyu’s savings were not enough, so she decided to wait seven days before she had to pay up. She did not print too much.
Each book cost an average of one tael of silver, and with 35 books, there were a total of 350 copies to be printed.
Among them, she printed most of the test papers and Dean Zhang’s notes.
The four books and five classics would have 10 copies each, while miscellaneous notes, dical books, and water resources books would have 5 copies each.
The maximum number of books in each category was no more than twenty, and the lowest was only five.
It could be said that it was very little.
However, she had spent a total of 350 taels!
She only had 30 taels of silver. Although Chu Heng said that he would pay for the remaining 320 taels, Ye Muyu wanted to earn more herself. It was not her character to always rely on Chu Heng.
When she ca out of the bookstore, Lu Chuan saw Ye Muyu frowning slightly. He did not know what she was thinking about, so he was very troubled.
“Madam, Master asked to send you back to the village before picking him up.”
Ye Muyu nodded casually.
“Let think for a while.” Ye Muyu pondered.
Seeing this, Lu Chuan did not disturb her.
The most difficult part of doing business was the initial investnt. Ye Muyu knew this very well. So now, the first thing she had to do was to gather investors.
“Let’s go buy sothing first.” Ye Muyu got on the carriage and pointed in the direction.
Lu Chuan was a steady driver and was familiar with the roads, so he followed Ye Muyu’s directions.
Ye Muyu used the last bit of money Chu Heng gave her to buy so materials.
They strolled around the market and saw people selling grapefruits. Ye Muyu asked Lu Chuan to buy seven or eight of them.
When she returned ho, it was only a quarter past nine.
Madam Hu had just flipped through the vegetables that had been left hanging yesterday.
Chu Ziluo and Nenya had gone to the old mansion.
Zhang Shu had gone out to mow the grass.
When Ye Muyu ca back, Madam Hu hurriedly opened the courtyard door to welco her. She took the bag of grapefruits from Lu Chuan’s hands and carried it over. She was still a little puzzled. “Madam, did you buy these grapefruits for us to eat?” Grapefruit trees do co out this season, but I saw a family planting grapefruit trees on the mountain last ti. I think the grapefruits are ripe.”
“If you want to eat grapefruits, you can buy them in the village. It’s much cheaper.”
Ye Muyu took out a silver coin from her waist and handed it to Madam Hu. “Put these grapefruits down and ask Lu Chuan to bring it in. Go and take a look at the grapefruit trees in the village. If they have yellowed, buy them back.”
. Yes, Madam.” Although Madam Hu did not understand what Ye Muyu wanted to do, she was not a talkative person. She nodded and left.
Lu Chuan thought that Ye Muyu might be preparing food.
He moved all the things that Ye Muyu bought into the courtyard. “Madam, what do you need to do?” Lu Chuan did not go to the county imdiately.
Today, Chu Heng did not give him any work, which ant that Chu Heng wanted him to help the Madam at ho.
Ye Muyu pointed at the grapefruits. “Help peel off the skin of these grapefruits. Don’t spoil them.”
“Yes.” Lu Chuan carried the grapefruit bag and walked to the eaves in front of the kitchen. He took a small stool and sat down to peel the grapefruits quickly.
Ye Muyu went into the room to change her clothes, put on an apron, and went into the kitchen.
She opened the cupboard and saw a large jar of honey inside.
She had wanted to make honey grapefruit tea for a long ti. Previously, the grapefruits were not ripe and she had no raw materials, so she could only delay it..
