When Mr. Li saw the empty wooden sticks, he asked excitedly, "Have they all been sold now?"
Li Dalang nodded excitedly: "Not only did Dad sell out, but those students are urging him to go back tomorrow!"
After hearing this, old man Li was so happy that his teeth were visible but his eyes were not!
Mr. Li urged the three of them to get in the car and drove back!
After getting on the donkey cart, Li Yan instructed, "Master, don't rush home yet. Go to the grocery store first. We're out of candy at home, so we need to buy some!"
Mr. Li immediately waved the reins and went to the grocery store!
The donkey cart stopped in front of the grocery store. Li Yan jumped off the donkey and said to the few people, "Master, wait for me for a while!" After that, she went into the store!
When the waiter saw someone coming, he immediately came forward and greeted her, "What do you need, young lady?"
"How much is this candy per pound? If I buy a lot, can you give me a discount?" Li Yan asked.
Upon hearing this, the young man asked, "Miss, how much do you need? I'll go ask the shopkeeper!"
The candied haws made from two kilograms of sugar today were clearly not enough to sell. Seeing how popular these candied haws were, Li Yan thought for a moment and said, "Then give me ten kilograms first!"
After the clerk went to the shopkeeper to ask for instructions, he walked over to Li Yan with a smile and said, "Miss, we are also a small business. The shopkeeper said that we can give you ten cents less. Is that okay with you?"
Li Yan had just asked casually, and since she got a good deal, she stopped wasting time and took out three strings of copper coins from her small bag and handed them to the boy next to her!
The waiter skillfully weighed out ten kilograms of sugar and handed it to Li Yan, then found ten copper coins from behind the counter and handed them to Li Yan.
Li Yan picked up her things and came out of the grocery store to meet up with Mr. Li.
The group drove the donkey cart and soon returned home!
When Wu saw the few people returning, she immediately stepped forward and asked, "How is it? How is business?"
Li Dalang said excitedly, "Mom, you didn't see how popular these candied haws are today. Many students who didn't get any are looking forward to us going back tomorrow!"
Li Yan immediately took out her purse and shook it in front of everyone, and the copper coins inside the purse could be heard jingling!
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at the money bag in Li Yan's hand. Wu asked curiously, "Count it quickly, how much money have you made!"
Li Yan walked into the main room, poured out all the copper coins in her hand and counted them. There were a total of one hundred and seventy coins!
The aunt said excitedly: "You actually made so much money?"
Li Yan added, "After deducting the two kilograms of sugar we used, we still made a net profit of 110 coins!"
Everyone was very happy after hearing this. Li Yan didn't expect that her casual words could actually make her money.
Li Yan put the copper coin away and handed it to Wu beside her.
Old Master Li, who was standing by, said to Li Yan, "Keep this money for now. Also record your spending on candy today. We'll split the bill when we're done!"
Li Yan: "Grandpa, keep this money! You picked all these fruits!" Li Yan was thinking that the family didn't lack this little income now!
But Mr. Li said with a fierce face: "I told you to take it, so take it!"
What Grandpa Li was thinking about was dividing the family property. Even brothers had to settle accounts clearly. The candied haws were not only made by his granddaughter, but the idea of selling them was also hers. If she was not included in the division of the accounts at this time, it would be unacceptable in any way!
Li Yan looked at the unusually serious Mr. Li, touched her nose, and put the purse into her arms. "Then I'll keep it for now, and we'll talk about it when the money is divided!"
