The beloved baby has a space
Chapter 137 Waiting for Them
Chapter 137 Waiting for Them
Little Ayu ran home, and the little sheep, who was at the village entrance, caught her and carried her back to Old Wang's house.
When they arrived at the courtyard, little Ayu saw Liu Shi and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Mother, Mother, we're back!"
When Liu saw Xiao Ayu, a smile appeared in her eyes.
"Slow down, don't fall!" Although he said that, he still reached out and hugged Xiao Ayu.
"Mother, we've sold out of everything."
They set off in the morning and returned in the afternoon. The sun hasn't even set yet, which is far beyond the adults' expectations.
They were also thinking about the children; they might not be able to sell anything after half a day, and they would definitely want to go home after dark.
The reason Wang Dalang was sent along was because he was afraid the children would be stubborn and refuse to come back.
As the eldest brother, Wang Dalang had to take responsibility for caring for his younger siblings, so he wouldn't let them be willful.
"Really? Sold out?" Liu was definitely not convinced. The children had brought quite a lot of things, and today wasn't even a market day, so there wouldn't be that many villagers going. How could they have managed to sell everything?
This is truly unbelievable.
When Wang Wulang and the others learned that their sister had returned, they quickly flew back as well.
I heard Xiao Ayu's words at the entrance of the courtyard.
"You probably ate it yourselves! Haha, we won't blame you!" Wang Wulang thought that even if he went, he would eat it if he got hungry on the way, which was understandable and there was nothing to say about it.
Wang Liulang and Wang Qilang nodded in agreement.
Such sweet candied hawthorns, such delicious wild fruits—it's impossible to resist eating them.
"No, we didn't eat any! Fifth brother, sixth brother, seventh brother, you're all mean!" Little Ayu said angrily, her hands on her hips.
The brothers don't believe them at all!
I don't want to talk to them anymore.
Little Ayu simply ignored them, turning her little body away and turning her back to them. No matter how Wang Wulang tried to coax her, it was no use.
At this time, the adults in the family also returned one after another.
Grandma Wang walked at the front, and now that he was in high spirits due to the happy occasion, Old Man Wang also walked proudly beside her.
He carried a hoe on his waist and hummed an unknown tune, completely ignoring the obvious disgust in Old Mrs. Wang's eyes.
"Grandma! Grandpa!" Little Ayu heard the noise and saw Grandma Wang, and happily rushed towards her.
"Oh dear, let Grandma see who's back? It's our little fairy! Little fairy, are you tired from flying?" Grandma Wang teased little Ayu with a smile.
While saying she wasn't tired, Xiao Ayu complained to Wang Wulang and the others: "My brother and the others said that we ate all the food ourselves, but we really sold it and made a lot of money!"
Without saying a word, Old Mrs. Wang first criticized Wang Wulang and the others.
She thought to herself that the children probably didn't make much money; they had discussed at home that it would be 3 coins a string of sticks.
This price isn't exactly affordable, but the costs are there, and since they're a multi-party collaboration, they have to raise the price to ensure they make enough profit.
Three coins can buy three ordinary skewers of candied hawthorn, so they probably won't sell many.
Surprisingly, the children actually sold out.
Even if they sell out, it'll only be worth a little over 100 coins.
In front of his family, Wang Dalang laid out all the money on the table. First, he poured out the copper coins with a clattering sound, then the one tael of silver, and then the remaining ten ingots of silver.
Grandma Wang remained calm, but the rest of the Wang family stared wide-eyed.
What is this?!
"What are you selling? Did you find gold and sell it?!" "How can you have so much money!"
"Where did you get this from?!"
Some questioned, some were shocked, some were curious; all eyes were focused on the money on the table.
Wang Dalang dared not hide anything and told everyone what had happened in detail. After listening, almost everyone in the Wang family was wide-eyed and couldn't close their mouths for a long time.
What's going on? Did some sucker suddenly appear?
And he's the kind of sucker who loves to give away money!
Even Old Mrs. Wang couldn't help but twitch her eyebrows. Where did this rich but foolish second son of a landlord come from?
In a small town, there are very few people who can afford to spend so lavishly, let alone a boy who is about the same age as Wang Dalang.
"My goodness, so much money! You've earned over ten taels of silver on this trip, which is more than our family's annual income!" Wang Chuanyuan couldn't help but mutter. "When my elder brother went to work in town, he worked himself to the bone all day and couldn't even earn 100 coins, right?"
Wang Chuanfu: "..." The logic is sound, but saying it at this time is a bit hurtful to me.
The adults in the Wang family never imagined that all their efforts to earn money would be less than what the children could earn by digging wild fruits in the mountains.
This is a significant blow.
Fortunately, Grandma Wang remained calm and told the children that such a thing was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and that they certainly wouldn't have such good luck next time.
Therefore, they need to be even more careful about quality control. They not only cannot lower prices, but they also need to improve their own skills so that customers feel they are getting their money's worth.
The essence of value for money is good service, making guests feel valued.
Old Mrs. Wang also ordered the Wang family not to tell anyone about this matter so far. The Wang family members also knew the principle of not flaunting wealth, and everyone said they would not talk about it.
However, their first successful business venture gave them immense confidence, so for the next two days they continued to study candied hawthorn. This time, they all assisted Liu, eager to learn how it was made.
Liu Shi naturally didn't hold back, and would teach them repeatedly what they didn't understand. Wang Dalang was the first to learn, while the quick-witted Wang Wulang learned a little slower, but the candied hawthorns he made tasted very similar to Liu Shi's.
Wang Wulang was extremely proud: "I'll never be afraid of losing my job again. I can still sell candied hawthorns in the future!"
Little Ayu added insult to injury: "Fifth Brother, didn't you used to want to be a general?"
"..."
"Later, Grandma made you take the imperial examination, saying you had to come back as a Xiucai (a scholar who passed the lowest level of the imperial examination)!"
"..."
"You'll never become a general in your life!"
"..."
"Anyway, you definitely won't be able to make candied hawthorns anymore; Grandma will never agree!"
"..." Wang Wulang looked helpless and reached out to cover Xiao Ayu's mouth. "Alright, alright, I know, you don't need to say anymore."
Little Ayu blinked her eyes.
She still had so much to say!
Two days later, the children set off again with candied hawthorns. This time, many people were waiting for them, especially those who had tried candied hawthorns before, and now they all wanted to buy one again.
The taste is secondary; the main thing is that the sugar coating on top is very thick, and once it's peeled off, it can be used as a sugar reserve at home!
The servant, who had been waiting at the street corner for two days, was almost moved to tears when he saw the Wang family.
"Oh, you've finally arrived! I've been waiting for you for so long!" the servant said excitedly. "Our young master is waiting for you!"
