âBy the way, I got quite a lot of Soft Fragrance Cakes. Speaking of which, theyâre really delicious. Theyâre even more delicious than the ones you made before.â
âOf course. Daughter, your cooking is also very delicious.â After Old Madam Ye spoke the truth, she quickly added.
Ye Muyu could not help but smile when she saw Old Madam Yeâs âstupid lookâ. She still remembered that Old Madam Ye was the one who liked to speak the truth and annoyed many people in the village.
âItâs fine as long as itâs delicious.â Ye Muyu was not surprised. The Xie familyâs Soft Fragrance Cake was baked in the oven, while she steamed it in a pot. Naturally, it wasnât as fragrant as the baked cake.
âYou should go back early. I will accompany Ziluo to the county tomorrow. If you come, just come to me.â
Old Madam Ye waved her hand. âAlright, alright. You guys go back quickly.
When we have enough people, we will take the ox cart back.â
âBy the way, Iâll make more of the bean paste you mentioned.â
âOkay, then be careful.â After Ye Muyu finished talking to Old Woman Ye, the carriage left.
Chu Jin and Chu Ziluo sat at the side and looked at her with bright eyes.
âWhatâs wrong?â Ye Muyu then looked at the two children. âWell, their clothes werenât dirty, so thatâs not bad.â
âMother, the Zhuge Lock I made has been sold!â Chu Jin danced with excitement.
âMy tiger Zhuge Lock is the best seller!â
âMother, my Butterfly Zhuge Lock is also not bad, but I made too little.â Chu Ziluo added.
âAnyway, my Tiger Zhuge Lock is sold out first,â Chu Jin said smugly. He did not care about the results of the others. In any case, he had achieved his goal.
âOh? What are the prices?â Although he had guessed that this kind of toy would sell well, there was a difference between guessing and reality.
âTiger Zhuge Lock costs 500 copper coins per set,â Chu Jin said. âCould it be that the price is different for different styles?â
âItâs all the same,â Chu Jin said straightforwardly.
Ye Muyu suddenly laughed when she heard this. Chu Jin did not understand why his mother was laughing. Anyway, he was really happy that his Zhuge Suo had made money. His mother must be happy for him too, Chu Jin thought happily.
âI sold 25 sets this time.â
âUncle Xing went back after selling what he had. He said that he wanted to make more and that he would go to the neighboring county to sell it in two days. â
Of course, Chu Xing wanted to take advantage of this popularity to sell more Zhuge Locks.
Each of them cost 500 copper coins, and the cost was about 100 copper coins.
The income from the Zhuge Lock was over 12 strings of coins!
It was more than five times the income of the other toys combined.
Not only that, Chu Xingâs eldest brother, Chu Xueqin, and second brother, Chu Dongyu, also had more than ten sets of Zhuge Locks in their hands, and there were more than ten sets at home.
Originally, Chu Xing thought that the forty sets of Zhuge Locks he had made in twenty days would be enough to sell.
Now, it seemed that he had completely underestimated the allure of Zhuge Suo.
âMother, I wonât be going to the county tomorrow. Iâm going to make more Zhuge Locks at home. Uncle Xing said that if I show my skills, Iâll get half of the money they earn,â Chu Jin said happily.
âNot bad,â Ye Muyu patted his head and praised. âLilâ Jin is great.â
Chu Jin laughed even more after receiving her praise.
Ye Muyu asked the child to play at the side.
She looked at Chu Heng and asked in a low voice, âAbout Ah Xingâs business with Xiao Jinâ¦â âWhat do you think?â
â Chu Heng leaned against the wall of the carriage, his handsome face slightly lowered..
