"Dad, Mom, guess how much we made today?" Lin Feng asked excitedly.
Lin's father leaned closer to take a look and his eyes widened immediately: "This...so much?"
"One hundred and fifty coins per piece, and forty pieces of coarse cloth clothing were sold..."
"Eight silk dresses were sold, each for three hundred coins..."
"We made an extra tael of silver from those last few items that were marked up..."
Lin Yun stood to the side, watching her parents and brother busily working, her eyes filled with pride. This was a challenge for her to test her abilities, and thankfully, she had won. She breathed a long sigh of relief.
Lin Feng's hands trembled slightly as he counted the last copper coin: "I actually... earned more than nine taels of silver!"
"Nine taels!" Lin's mother exclaimed in surprise. "That's more than we used to earn in a month!"
Mr. Lin's eyes reddened with excitement: "We earned so much in just one day. I never even dared to dream of it before..."
Lin Feng scratched his head and laughed, "Yun'er, your clothes are amazing! Customers are scrambling to buy them!"
Lin Yun shook her head and said seriously, "Dad, Mom, the reason our clothes sell well is because the styles are novel and the workmanship is solid. But relying on our family alone, the production capacity is ultimately limited."
Lin Feng looked up: "Yun'er, you mean..."
Lin Yun's gaze was firm: "We need to hire more people."
Mr. and Mrs. Lin exchanged a glance, hesitating for a moment. Hiring someone meant paying extra wages, and what if business didn't improve later?
Lin Yun noticed their concerns and said softly, "You've seen the situation today; our clothes are in short supply. If we expand production, we can not only earn more, but also take on custom orders from wealthy families—that's where the real profits lie."
Lin Feng was the first to nod: "I think Yun'er is right! Today, many customers asked if we could customize other styles. If we have enough manpower, we can definitely take on those orders!"
After pondering for a moment, Lin's father finally made a decision: "Alright, we'll do as Yun'er says! Tomorrow I'll go and inquire about hiring some skilled embroiderers and tailors!"
Lin's mother smiled too: "Our family... is going to get better!"
She thought to herself, "Luckily I've been very busy lately, otherwise I'd feel like I'm dreaming."
A family that was fighting to the death just a few days ago... has changed drastically in just a few days.
Lin Feng reminded him, "We're out of materials at home. What are we going to do tomorrow?"
After all, who knew business would be so good today, and everything sold out in one go?
