As soon as Yang Dong reached ho, he rushed into the house.
"Mother, mother, all sold, all sold!" Even Yang Dong couldn't hide his joyous excitent.
"All sold?"
"How much silver?"
"That quick?"
The won at ho couldn't sit still anymore, they imdiately gathered around upon hearing Yang Dong's words.
"Mother, everything is here!" Xiaoxiao dumped the copper coins onto the kang, and the copper coins clinked crisply, "Count them!"
Everyone saw, in just half a day, so many copper coins had been sold. They all started counting together.
"I have one hundred and five copper coins here."
"I have ninety-eight here."
"I have eighty-eight here."
"Aunt, I can only count to ten."
"..."
Xiaoxiao saw the whole family joining in, counting money with joyful spirits, and at this mont she felt an imnse sense of achievent. It was so good to see the family so happy!
"Ninety-eight strings, five copper coins per string, a total of four hundred ninety copper coins sold, the cost of the sugar was two hundred fifty copper coins, today we made a net profit of two hundred forty copper coins, I originally thought about a larger profit, but I was afraid they wouldn't accept it. So, it barely worked out like this!" Xiaoxiao began to report the situation.
Everyone was incredulous after hearing it; selling for five copper coins per string had worked, and this daughter-in-law really had so tricks! And to think she still described it as barely working out, that was seriously impressive!
"Mother, these four hundred ninety copper coins are for you, we're only short ten copper coins, we haven't lost out at all, it's definitely a sure-win business, you can be at ease now!"
Xiaoxiao knew her mother-in-law was worried about losing money, so today she didn't use the money earned to buy more sugar, but instead decided to give her mother-in-law so peace of mind. Afterwards, they could use the money from sales to invest again! This household couldn't afford to lose money, better to play it safe.
"I plan to make another hundred strings tomorrow and explore the County market, the town is ultimately too small, I'm afraid it can't handle as many candied hawthorns as we produce!"
After Xiaoxiao shared her thoughts, no one objected, as they had indeed seen the legitimate earnings.
The next day, the two of them prepared the candied hawthorns and set off again. Although the County was far, requiring two hours by walk, they still went on foot. This ti, Yang Dong wasn't so timid, without needing reminders from Xiaoxiao, he started singing as he walked, which was much more confident than yesterday. Truly, a child could be taught, perhaps he might really be grood into a businessman!
This was Xiaoxiao's first ti in the County, which was much larger than the town, with more people and a dazzling array of shops. The variety of goods sold was also more abundant than in the town. If it wasn't for selling candied hawthorns, she really wanted to take a good look around.
Xiaoxiao still opted for the mobile vending thod to save the stall fees. Now, every copper coin mattered; after all, she was genuinely poor!
"Brother-in-law, since we are in the County, should we go see third brother?" Xiaoxiao's impression of Yang Dong increasingly improved, his genuine intention to help bond third brother and his wife was why he asked this.
"Maybe we shouldn't. He's also busy with his studies, let's not disturb him. Besides, he'll be back at the end of the year, and we don't have ti anyway!"
Xiaoxiao responded guiltily, but forget it, she was not going. She wasn't the original person, really clueless about what the original person saw in Yang Ming, judging from her cheap husband's suggestions, it was the original person who fell for Yang Ming, determined to marry only him! She finally got her wish! Really can't understand what's so good about that Yang Ming? Could it be that handso guys are just infuriating?
