196 The Joy of Earning Money

Lin Xiaoyue watched as the waiter helped load the bowls she ordered and took another 10 wooden buckets.

Then, she paid and returned with Aunt Wang.

Aunt Wang was enlightened and felt that Lin Xiaoyue was not an ordinary person.

“Yue’er, your business is doing so well!” Looking at the large number of bowls piled on the ox-cart, Aunt Wang sighed.

“Hehe, we’ll need them sooner or later, so if I buy more and keep them at home, I won’t have to go to the grocery store every day, right?” Lin Xiaoyue said with a smile.

“Aunt Wang, you should know that it’s all hard work.”

Aunt Wang laughed. “You’re not the only one who wakes up early and comes back late, but I don’t think any other family’s business is as prosperous as yours!”

“Your cold cakes are indeed selling well!”

It looked good and the price was affordable. If it wasn’t for Yue’er treating her, she would have bought two bowls of it if she saw it on the street!

Lin Xiaoyue smiled, “I guess so!”

In her opinion, making so many cold cakes all day long would only earn her 3 to 4 taels of silver. It was better for her to go into the mountains and hunt a few more deers.

Venison was 40 wen per catty. The money she earned from a 40–catty deer was equivalent to selling more than 530 bowls of cold cakes. And this was based on the selling price of 4 wen per bowl.

However, there was no point in thinking about this now.

Hunting was a thing of the past.

When she first arrived, she was only focused on making money and didn’t think much.

Now that she thought about it, the amount of money she made from selling prey was too much and it would attract unwanted attention.

In the future, she had to be down-to-earth and slowly save money.

Just as they entered the village, Lin Xiaoyue and Aunt Wang ran into Wang Shuanzi, who was coming back.

Lin Xiaoyue hurriedly stopped the ox-cart and let Wang Shuanzi et on. After learning that Wang Shuanzhi had already sold all the cold cakes, Aunt Wang couldn’t stop smiling. “I only went to Shangyang Village. I didn’t even finish looking around before the cold cakes were sold out!” “Some people wanted to buy them but it’s sold out, so they asked me to bring more!” Wang Shuanz’s face was red from the heat. “Good! Since Shangyang Village is close by, you can make another trip!” Aunt Wang said with a smile. All 6 buckets of cold cakes were sold out, that was a net profit of 150 wen! It was still early now, and he might be able to earn 300 wen in a day! 300 wen a day would be 9 taels of silver in a month! Oh my, 9 tacls! “Yes!” Wang Shuanzi nodded his head firmly, his eves full of energy.

Then, he took out his wallet. “Yue’er, Ill give you the money for the 6 buckets of cold cakes first!” He said excitedly. He had truly experienced the joy of collecting money today. A bowl was 4 wen. With so many people in the field, they could often sell 5 to 6 bowls, sometimes even 7 to 8 bowls, per person. He didn’t bring enough bowls and spoons, but fortunately, some people had brought extra bowls, so he didn’t waste too much time this.

The field was close to the village, and some people even brought their own bowls to pack some cold cakes, so the cold cakes sold out fast.

In short, he had earnt a lot of money. “There’s no hurry. You can pay me later. Just give the money to my mother!” Lin Xiaoyue smiled and refused it. She had thought about it and decided not to give her mother any allowance in the future. She was in charge of the household’s expenses such as purchasing and so on, and the money from the cold cakes was kept by her mother. This way, her mother would receive money every day, and she would be happy.
