"Brother is right. Whether we can sell it or not, we have to give it a try."
"What if we don't have a scale? If someone wants to buy something, what will we use to weigh it?"
The price hasn't been decided yet, but they're already thinking about weighing and packing. They're determined to sell it. Since they all want to try, Chunxiao has no reason to stop them. "If you really want to sell it, then set it at 40 wen per catty. I have to make at least a dozen wen per catty, otherwise it would be a shame for my craftsmanship."
Although everyone felt that it was a bit high, since they had agreed to try it earlier, there was no objection.
"This stuff only smells good when it's hot. I think if you want to sell it, you need to bring a wood stove."
"We don't have a wood stove or a scale at home." Tian was a little troubled.
"Your uncle Musheng has a wood stove. I'll borrow it from him first. I'll also borrow a scale. The vegetable vendors in the village have been closed for the past two days, so what to use to load it is really a problem."
"We still have a few bamboos from the ones we cut earlier, how about using them as bamboo tubes?"
"The buyer doesn't know how much to buy and how many bamboo tubes to use. It's not appropriate."
"Go to the grocery store and buy some wax paper. Cut it on the spot. If you buy a lot, cut it bigger. If you buy a little, cut it smaller. Wax paper is not expensive. Don't buy too much. Buy two sheets. Even if you can't sell them, you can take them back and use them to wrap things yourself."
"That's a good idea. Let's do as Chunxiao says. But what about the eggs and tofu? How should we sell them?"
"There aren't many eggs and tofu left, so let's just forget about it." She had originally bought 10 pieces of tofu and had already eaten a few.
"We are trying to buy. It doesn't matter if the amount is small. The key is to try." Dahe looked at Chunxiao.
Chunxiao thought about it and decided to sell them at a higher price since it was just a trial. "Eggs are 4 wen each, and tofu is 10 wen per pound."
"Okay, that's settled. Who's going tomorrow?"
Everyone, I look at you, and you look at me.
"Dashan and Dahe are going to sell charcoal. This is the main thing and we can't lose it. Otherwise, why don't you two sisters-in-law go."
Tian was a little embarrassed. "Mom, I'm willing to go, but I don't know how to count money. If business really comes, I won't be able to figure out the accounts. How will it work?"
"Dashan and the others don't know how to sell this charcoal."
"Mom, there's only one price for charcoal. Chunxiao explained how much it costs per kilogram, and we wrote it down. These are different. How many kinds are there?"
Zhou was also in a dilemma. "What should I do? Will this business fail?"
"Grandma, I'll go with my mother and second aunt. I know how to do such simple accounts. My aunt taught me." Shuwen suddenly stood up.
"Yes, we still have books and articles. Okay, since you can do math, you can go with your mother and Second Aunt. Once we've borrowed everything, we'll set off with your father and the others in the morning."
After the matter was settled, everything in Chunxiao's room was confiscated. She showed no intention of leaving anything behind. "Mom, please at least save some of the eggs. We'll have something to eat at home tomorrow."
"What are you going to eat? How can this four-cent egg be the same as a one-cent egg? If you want to eat it, wait until they come back tomorrow."
