There are always speculators in the world, and many people want to make a quick buck by profiting from price differences. Mr. Mo is continuing to drive up the price of soybeans.
Li Qingzhang didn't wait any longer and began to sell off the soybeans he had.
The 130,000 shi (a unit of grain) were not all with him; Li Xuyue, Li Xuxi, and others took a portion to other places.
When the price of soybeans climbed to 7.2 wen, Li Qingzhang had sold out all his soybeans.
The two went to the money exchange to exchange for silver without stopping, and only after returning to the restaurant did they have the mind to count their silver notes.
Li Qingzhang initially had 40,000 shi of soybeans, and with the purchases made later, he had a total of over 70,000 shi.
"Sixty thousand taels, more than sixty thousand taels of silver!"
Li Xuming already knew how much he had earned, but he still couldn't help but take out the paper and calculate it several more times.
He counted the silver notes in his hand over and over.
"They're all back!"
Li Xuming was completely relieved. Although the matter seemed secure, he still felt some pressure. Seeing the money was the only real reassurance.
"Father, things are settled here, and the goods have been handed over. Let's head back tomorrow!"
I've been away from home for so long this time, I miss home.
His father and uncles were alright; they all came after he had prepared the goods.
"Okay, let's go home. Let our family be happy too!"

Li Xuyue and Li Xuxi both kept in mind the three words "do not be greedy".
When soybean prices rose, they quickly sold off their stock.
With silver notes in their pockets, they embarked on their return journey in high spirits.
