Seeing Gan Li's resolute attitude, the Gan family members, though puzzled, said nothing more.
Gan Mingyi, however, scratched his head sheepishly and said, "Mother, elder brother, please don't try to persuade our little sister. She's the smartest person in our family. We'll just do whatever she says!"
Gan Li gave Gan Mingyi an admiring look. As expected of her second brother, he really understands her!
For the next few days, Ganli continued to make only the same number of popsicles each day, which sold out as soon as they arrived at the dock.
The news that popsicles were being sold at the dock spread like wildfire throughout the town.
More and more people came to buy popsicles every day, crowding around Gan's small stall in layers.

Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly realized that they usually had to wait for the bean soup to solidify into popsicles before they could buy any.
"Oh, I see! I was wondering why some people have money but don't know how to make more."
"Hey, young lady, why don't you make more molds and more ice? Look at us, we're all willing to wait for your popsicles. If you make more, we can all eat them, and you can earn more money. Isn't that a win-win situation?"
The others echoed his sentiments.
Hearing what everyone said, Gan Li chuckled inwardly. The fish had finally taken the bait!
