After dinner, Xia Tian took out his purse and poured all the copper coins onto the table with a "clatter".
Looking at the small pile of copper coins, her eyes lit up. This was the first pot of gold she had earned since coming here.
Although it’s not much, it doesn’t affect my good mood.
Xia Tian counted them and found there were a total of 132 copper coins.
"Today, I sold dried tofu for twelve cents, pig's feet for fifteen cents, and the rest were pig intestines.
If you calculate it this way, after deducting the amount we ate ourselves, the amount given to customers for tasting, and the amount given to Aunt Chun and her three companions, we made a net profit of 105 cents from the two sets of pig intestines.
After deducting the costs, we earned about eighty cents today.
If you do this every day, you can earn two or three taels of silver a month."
Xia Tian analyzed and muttered to himself.
This is actually quite good. People like Xia Yang who work in town only earn three or four hundred coins a month.
Besides, she was just testing the waters today and didn't prepare many braised dishes.
Shen Nian looked at her money-obsessed look, and a smile appeared on his face, "Well, it's pretty good."
"That's right. I come back a little late every day and can't make lunch for you in time."
If she kept going out early and coming back late every day, it would be a problem for Chen Nian to have lunch.
You can't just focus on making money in the summer, you have a boss at home who needs to feed you.
"It's okay." Shen Nian was not dissatisfied.
"Then I'll put it up for a few days and see if it sells well. I'll see if I can find someone to help."
Xia Tian decided that he had to set up a stall every day, otherwise he wouldn't make much money if he only sold at the market.
“Yeah, all good.” Shen Nian nodded.
Xia Tian looked at Shen Nian’s gentle expression and realized that she was indeed not unhappy, so she felt relieved.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he saw the teapot on the table and asked Shen Nian again, “Brother Shen, have you drunk the dandelion water every day?”
"I drank it."
"Have you been feeling better lately?"
"Yeah, much better."
"That's fine. You have to keep drinking it. It seems that dandelion water is still effective. I'll pick some more and dry it in the sun. Then you can drink it in winter."
She thought she had covered it up well and patted herself on the back for her cleverness!
"Okay." Chen Nian looked at her trying to cover up her secrets, but did not expose her and agreed softly.
After chatting for a while, Xia went to the well to fetch water twice, and then sat in the yard to clean pig intestines.
This is profitable, but it is too difficult to clean the pig intestines.
By the time the pig intestines and dried tofu were braised, it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon.
She was just about to take a break to make dinner when Mrs. Yao came to find her at the door.
