Chapter 118 A Complete Mess (2/2)



Then they had the constables and Master Shen calculate for everyone over and over again.

This has wasted a lot of their time.

There was no other way; to compensate the other party, we had to give up the wild boar that we had managed to keep.

Not only that, I also ceded territory and paid reparations, promising to sell recipes to Tongfu Restaurant at a 10% discount next time.

Chi Yu had anticipated this problem, and upon hearing this, she simply brought the people and children into the space before she felt safe enough to speak freely:

"Tomorrow, all the younger generation in the clan will attend classes at the clan school."

Putting aside everything else, they must learn arithmetic, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Otherwise, if something like this happens again, who can stand it?

As for selling recipes, that's easy. How many we want to sell is entirely up to us.

Sister, just add that 10% to the low price you're looking for.

If all else fails, we won't sell recipes, but we can offer something else.

Chi Yu spoke with absolute confidence.

"Exchange it for something else? What are you going to sell? Still those crystal jewelry you pawned before?"

Chi Yu shook her head decisively: "No, no, I think we could sell things like nail art."

Sis, back in June or July this year, I bought a lot of nail stickers, nail decals, and nail polish wholesale, didn't I?

The things we have left at home now, although they wouldn't be so easy to sell in modern times, this is ancient times.

I saw her today; she's a nail technician too.

Although unlike the concubines in the palace on TV, they don't wear those exaggerated nail covers with long, pointed tips.

But she did get her nails done and dyed them.

What you're thinking about, none of it is as beautiful as mine.

Besides, doesn't my bright nail polish look better than those henna flowers?

Chi Qiao frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "Xiao Yu, don't do anything reckless."

I can understand if you're selling nail polish, but I don't know how to make this stuff.

As for the source, it's even more difficult for us to fabricate one.

Even if you have the space, it's not inexhaustible.

Then there are nail stickers, but let's skip those.

Although this thing is fake, the ancients probably didn't think so.

They might also think that something pulled from a living person is something terrifying.

Chi Yu was just talking nonsense, without considering the extent to which ancient people could accept new things.

In addition, as her sister said, these things were difficult to explain to outsiders, and they were not inexhaustible resources, so in the end they had to give up.

"Okay, I'll sort it out again later and see what items I have left over from my old stall that I can sell without it seeming out of place."

Chi Qiao breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she had listened to her, and then took out a purse from her bosom and handed it over.

"Little Fish, this is your money, from selling vegetables in the kang room and wild game in the clan."

The vegetables in the heated room cost fifty coins per pound. Yours totals fifty-three pounds and two ounces, which is two ounces and six hundred and sixty coins.

According to the clan's unified commercial tax, it is 20%, which means the commercial tax is 532 coins.

After deducting that, you'll have two taels and one hundred and twenty-eight coins left.

Then there's the business of selling wild animals. When you came back at noon, you gave me all the silver notes.

The clan's intention is that you're the one who helped this time, so you'll get the lion's share (30%).

Three-tenths of the eight hundred taels, which is two hundred and forty taels.

All the money is here; you can count it.

Upon hearing this, Chi Yu didn't reach out to take it, but instead asked in surprise:

"Sister Qiao gave us silver notes, and those people in the clan could afford them, so why would they accept them?"
