On the oxcart, Ye Erquan looked dejected. He had only been setting up his stall for a few days, and now it was all over.

"Little sister, are we not going to set up a stall anymore?" Ye Erquan said sadly.

"All the goods have been distributed, so I don't have to run around from dawn till dusk every day anymore," Ye Caiping said with a smile.

"Don't worry, Second Brother. Even if you don't set up a stall, there are still plenty of jobs waiting for you. I'll be troubling you with delivering goods every morning, noon, and evening from now on."

Ye Erquan was overjoyed and patted his chest: "Okay, leave it to me!"

Back home, Ye Caiping closed her bedroom door and did the statistics with Ye Jin'er.

Ye Jin'er counted on her fingers:

"Shunkelou has 2 buckets each for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, for a total of 6 buckets."

"Daxing Restaurant and Decai Inn are the same, two buckets at noon and one bucket in the evening. A total of six buckets."

"Sister Pang drinks one bucket in the morning. That makes 13 buckets a day. After deducting costs, she makes 300 coins per bucket, so her daily income is..."

Ye Caiping said, "It is 3 taels and 9 mace."

Ye Jin'er nodded: "By the way, are they still being set up in the county town?"

"Set it up." Ye Caiping wanted to keep the stall in the county town.

Firstly, it's to promote her spicy soup and prepare for her workshop.

Secondly, I wanted to give Daquan, Erquan, and their two daughters some experience, letting them interact with more people and broaden their horizons.

"Add to that the 1.2 taels of silver that comes in from the county town every day..." Ye Jin'er gasped, "Then Mother would have... 5.1 taels a day! That's a hundred a month..."

“153 taels!” Ye Caiping said.

"Ah! This...this is incredible! We've earned over a hundred taels a month! My goodness! Last time, that person was only willing to pay 100 taels to buy a son, and we've already earned that back in just one month, plus an extra 53 taels."

Ye Jin'er jumped up and down excitedly, then giggled and said:

"Last time, Li Jiaojiao dug up a ginseng and sold it for 200 taels. Everyone was so envious, saying that the Li family had become rich. But that 200 taels was only for one time. Our family, on the other hand, gets 153 taels every month."

Ye Caiping was in a good mood and laughed, "Stop jumping around, it's not here yet."

"It'll start tomorrow! But..." Ye Jin'er suddenly thought of something, her expression showing some worry:

"With so many spicy soups suddenly appearing in town, will they be able to sell? Won't customers get tired of them?"

Ye Caiping said, "No, it won't. If I get tired of this today, I'll want to eat that next. It's just like eating; would you ever get tired of something?

"No. I'm just tired of it right now, and I'll want to eat it again in a little while."

Ye Caiping nodded with a smile: "Besides, the town has more than a dozen restaurants and countless small vendors, and they have all survived, which proves that there are enough customers and the market can absorb them."

...

In the afternoon, Grandma Ye and the others returned from the county town and were somewhat disappointed to hear that the town was no longer having stalls.

They were pleasantly surprised to learn that they could sell more and earn more by not setting up a stall.

Ye Caiping had to replan the route and reassign tasks.

I get up in the morning and make 6 buckets: 3 in the small town and 3 in the county seat.

Make 6 buckets before lunch and 4 buckets in the evening.

Early in the morning, Ye Bajin dropped off someone at a stall in the county town and also delivered goods from the town.

After returning to the village, he would take the villagers to town at 7 a.m., and they would be able to close up shop in the county town around 9 a.m. He would then travel from the town to the county town to pick them up and bring them back to the village.

Then he would haul the six large buckets from the lunch market to deliver goods, and after delivering the goods, he would take the villagers home.

I'll make a delivery tonight.

After Ye Caiping figured out the route, she was dumbfounded. This Ba Jin was too busy, running around all day.

After Ye Caiping told Ye Bajin about the delivery route, Ye Bajin scratched his head and laughed, "Running is fine for me, it's just a bit exhausting."

Ye Caiping laughed: "This time your wages must be raised to 30 coins, to supplement your cow's income."

Thinking about all the trips and loads he'd had to make, Ye Bajin finally felt he deserved it: "Alright, thank you, Sister Caiping. But what about my Fubao's spicy soup..."

"It's just a bowl of spicy soup. Just make it for him every day, just like now. Tell your aunt not to forget to bring it over."

Ye Bajin grinned, so happy he didn't know what to say.

Ye Caiping said, "But, Bajin, you can earn 30 coins a day now, so you don't have to work so hard to help the villagers anymore, right?"

Not every villager is willing to take the oxcart. Even on the busiest mornings, there might only be five or six people on a single trip, and sometimes the cart might even be empty.

Ye Bajin said urgently, "No, no. Although not everyone is willing to spend this money, our village must have a bullock cart to go in and out, and there must be people who want to ride in it."

Ye Bajin couldn't quite describe the feeling; it wasn't just about making that little bit of money, but rather a sense of responsibility.

Ye Caiping understood: "Okay."

“When you make money, Sister Caiping, you should also buy an oxcart. That way, it will be more convenient to transport things.”

Ye Caiping nodded with a smile.

Once the oxcarts were arranged, all that was left were the delivery people and the stall owners.

She and Grandma Ye stopped setting up their stall and instead stayed home to make soup.

Let one of Ye Daquan and Erquan take Jin'er and her sister to set up a stall.

For delivery, we'll deliver to either Daquan or Erquan if neither of them sets up a stall.

Occasionally, she can also set up a stall, and everyone can take turns coming so that they all have time to rest.

As for wages, Old Lady Ye didn't raise them, but Daquan and Erquan both raised them by five coins, making it twenty-five coins a day.

Ye Bajin charged 30 coins plus a bowl of spicy soup because he not only delivered goods, making three round trips a day, but also provided both a cart and cattle.

After making the arrangements clear, Ye Caiping finally breathed a sigh of relief.
