Chapter 64: Books I Can't Read
"Oh no!" Lin Dashan, who was still a little dizzy due to a hangover, slapped his forehead.
The two women looked at him in unison.
"I forgot to go to Dad's yesterday, and I haven't told him that I reserved a spot for him at the pier."
Lin Xiaomi was speechless. How could she forget this?
"Who knows how grandma will arrange us now!"
"What should we do? Why don't you go over and talk to her now?" Wang was afraid that Li would find fault with her.
Lin Dashan sighed, "I'll go over and tell them later. I'll bring some rice cakes this afternoon. I have to go to Wangjia Village and my uncle's place. I haven't informed them yet!"
"Dad, please bring more. Grandma and uncle live far away, so it's not convenient for them to come and get the goods."
"Well, I'll keep the money on credit for now. I'll pay you back when I make money."
"The boss!"
Wang looked at Lin Dashan with emotion. Her man always thought of her family when he had benefits!
Lin Xiaomi was startled. She couldn't stand the two people staring at each other silently, so she quietly left the yard.
..............................
In the village, each household bought a small amount of goods, some bought two or three kilograms, and some bought five or six kilograms. Everyone was just trying to see what was happening, and didn't dare to buy more.
"Dad, talk to Grandpa tonight and ask him to tell the vendors tomorrow to take a piece, cut it into small pieces, and give it to the customers to taste."
Lin Dashan gave a thumbs up and said, "Your idea is good. It's new. If you don't try it, you won't know how it tastes."
"Mom, ask the farm to make more. If they sell well, we won't be able to run out of stock. If they don't sell well, it doesn't matter. The cakes can be stored."
"Hey!" Wang took Guan to arrange the work.
The people of Linjia Village are going out to sell goods today!!!
Many villagers were very nervous when they went out to sell goods for the first time. They discussed with the people in the nearby area to go together to give them courage. They had never done business in their lives and were completely clueless.
The village head, clan leader and a bunch of old people in the village were so anxious that they couldn't sit still. They stood under a big tree at the entrance of the village, waiting for everyone to come home.
"What's the matter?" the patriarch asked loudly from a distance.
Finally one is back!!!!
"Sold out! All sold out!" The people who came back were also very happy. "People in the city praised the taste as good after trying it. I brought three kilograms of goods, and several families bought them all."
The villager holding the empty basket was grinning from ear to ear. He had never thought that it would be so popular. The city people had money and bought half a catty or a catty. Three catties was not enough! We have to get more tomorrow. Many people didn't buy anything today.
"Hey, okay, okay!!"
The anxious hearts finally settled down. They said, how could such delicious cakes not sell well?
Villagers came back one after another, and most of them didn’t bring much with them, so all the food could be sold out by just a few customers.
A few old guys saw that so many people had emptied their baskets, so they calmed down and went home.
"How did you find out?"
The village head was worried, so he sent his son to ask the seller again.
"Most of them are sold out. They were not easy to sell at first, but I did as Brother Fuyou said and let people try them. After they tried them, they sold very well. There were also a few with thin noodles, but I didn't dare to shout, so they didn't sell."
"Those who didn't sell their products also said that they would shout loudly tomorrow and let people taste them. I heard that everyone wants a lot of goods tomorrow. Brother Fuyou and Brother Fucai are going to the village together to buy goods!"
"Okay, how many pounds will we order tomorrow?"
His family also chose a good place, near the restaurants and teahouses in the city.
"50 pounds."
“So many, can you sell them?”
"This stuff can be kept for quite a while, and it won't go bad. If there's not enough to sell, won't that delay making money?"
Hearing this, Li Zheng nodded. This makes sense.
at night.
"Old man, how come people in the city have so much money? So many people buy such expensive cakes."
"It's just for the sake of novelty. Who knows how it will sell in the future! Compared to the ones in the shop, this cake is not expensive. Just think about it, how expensive is rice and sugar!"
"That's right. You said that with so many people buying the goods, how much should the rich family earn?" Don't even mention that you are helping Dashan for free, who would believe it?
"No matter how much you earn, it's not yours. Don't think about those extravagant things. Stop talking nonsense when you go out."
The wife of the village head curled her lips, "I didn't go out and tell anyone, I just asked. Besides, who wouldn't be curious? Everyone knows that with so many goods, it's time to make a fortune!"
"It's their own money to make money, and it's more important for us to find ways to sell more."
"That's right, let's send our grandson to school next year as well."
"Let's take a look!"
The patriarch’s house.
"Boss, we have earned 96 coins today, and this is still too little."
"Well, you should keep this money well. Next year, when Fugui is going to the capital, he will need a lot of money."
"Well, luckily it's a new way to make a living, otherwise my family might not be able to go next year. Our family only has that much income, and we women can only earn a few dollars a month by embroidering handkerchiefs."
"Yes, it's all thanks to the mountain!"
The clan leader sighed. Studying is really expensive. Their family is relatively well-off, but it is very hard to support one child. What about the poor? Oh, otherwise why do people say that scholars are noble? How can they not be noble? It's all because of the money they spend.
The old Lin family hasn't gone to bed yet.
"Old man, I heard that the goods ordered from Fuyou today are more than 2000 kilograms."
"so many?"
Lin Mutu sat up in shock.
"Well, there are more than a hundred households in the village selling this. If one household sells 10 kilograms, that's 1000 kilograms. And it's not just that. The head of the village, the clan leader, and the third uncle's family all sell 50 kilograms. Just think about it, it's not that much!"
Old Man Lin felt uncomfortable. He originally thought that the soybean business was very good, and it was the eldest brother's care for his younger brothers. But now, his second brother...
He felt very upset that his money was taken away by others, but he didn't dare to go to his second brother's house to complain.
"Five or six cents per pound is definitely profitable, right? Thousands of pounds a day, just imagine how much money that is. Dashan has made a fortune again this time. And what about my second brother's family, how much do you think they can earn? Even one cent per pound is incredible! Our Dachuan and Dahai go out in the wind and rain every day, in such cold weather, collecting soybeans door to door, how much can they earn in a day? My second brother's family doesn't even need to leave the house, and they can sell so much every day. Oh, Dashan, you are guilty of what you did."
He glanced at Old Man Lin and saw that he looked okay, so he increased his firepower.
"Someone in the village told me that Uncle Dashan and the Yue family are doing really good business. When they passed by Nanyang Town on their way home, they saw that they were pushing carts loaded with goods. Where did they get the money to buy the goods? It was your eldest son who gave them the money!"
“Do they have a lot of goods?”
Even if you sell those two families, you won’t be able to find even a tael of silver in their homes!
"Yes, they really saw those two families. They only had one town, and we only had a dock, and we had to fight with the clan leader. Dashan, you are so crooked!"
Old Man Lin: ...
He thought his family had benefited the most, but now it seems that he is the stupidest one.
"Cough cough..."
"Old man!!"
Li was shocked, it was too exciting!
Old man Lin got so excited that he choked and almost died from coughing.
