“Sister-in-law, there’s no need to doubt it; it is indeed thirty-five thousand volumes,” Jiang Jialin replied confidently.

Jiang Wanwan, who was standing to the side, started to have intermittent seizures. She raised her chin slightly and had a smug look on her face. "Sigh~" she sighed deeply.

The Jiang family members, who were about to have an exciting discussion, were startled by her long sigh.

No, why are you sighing?

Has something bad happened?

The entire Jiang family turned their attention to Jiang Wanwan, looking at her with anxious expressions.

After enjoying the spotlight for a while, Jiang Wanwan started shaking her head and said with a bitter expression, "Being too outstanding isn't good either. Look, Uncle Bai insisted on ordering so many mosquito coils, and I couldn't stop him."

That's 35,000 volumes! What are we going to do? This will kill us!"

The Jiang family members: ......

They were almost scared to death; they thought something terrible had happened.

This little girl is getting more and more cocky!

I want to fight, but I can't bear to.

This is so frustrating!

Old Jiang took a deep drag on his pipe, the water inside gurgling as he inhaled. After exhaling a smoke ring, he squinted and asked, "Granddaughter, how much will we make from this order?"

Grandma Jiang and the others all pricked up their ears, waiting for Jiang Wanwan to reveal the answer.

To everyone's surprise, Jiang Wanwan didn't directly answer Old Man Jiang's question. Instead, she continued on the Verdant track, "Uncle Bai is such an honest man! He ordered so many items, and I wanted to give him a discount, but he refused. He cried and begged me not to lower the price, and just to keep it the same as the prices at Ruixiangju and Wanhuofang."

But I'm not an ungrateful person, so of course I have to give him a discount. Grandpa and Grandma, don't you think so?

"Yes, yes, yes, my eldest granddaughter is right."

"My eldest granddaughter did the right thing!"

The two elderly people echoed her repeatedly, somewhat perfunctorily, just to get her to give them the answer they wanted to know as soon as possible.

Jiang Wanwan glanced at the expressions on her family members' faces—a mixture of despair and anxious anticipation—and decided to stop teasing them. "Well, after much persuasion, Uncle Bai finally agreed to three copper coins a roll for ordinary mosquito coils and four copper coins a roll for osmanthus-scented ones. In such a short time, he secured a large order of one hundred and twenty taels."

"One hundred and twenty taels of silver! Did I hear that right?"

"My goodness! I earned 120 taels of silver in one go. It's like a dream."

"You can argue with that. I feel so light-footed right now, like I can't even stand on solid ground."

The Jiang family members were in a daze, some unable to believe their ears.

Jiang Wanwan found their expressions somewhat amusing. So she took out two ten-tael silver ingots and four taels of loose silver from her crossbody bag and placed them in front of everyone.

"Here, this is the deposit paid by Uncle Bai. We need to deliver the goods in ten days."

Grandma Jiang stared blankly at the silver ingots in Jiang Wanwan's hand, her eyes filled with longing. "Granddaughter, can you let Grandma touch these silver ingots?"

"Of course." Jiang Wanwan handed the silver ingot in her hand to Old Madam Jiang, whose lips curled up wildly, even revealing her pink gums.

Zhu was also overwhelmed by this big order. After calming down, she quickly calculated, "We earned 120 taels today. Adding what we earned a while ago, we'll have almost 200 taels of silver, right? Before long, won't we be able to build a house?"

Jiang Wanwan gave Zhu Shi an approving look, "With today's money, our family now has over 170 taels of silver. At this rate, we'll be able to build a house soon."

"Wow, we're building a new house! We're building a new house!" Everyone cheered.
