171 Chapter 171: Bean Sprouts Were Very Popular

The result was just as Qin Xiaoyao had expected.

Before long, Wang Xiaomei, Big Girl Li, Liu Xiaomei, and Qin Dahu all arrived.

Moreover, each and every one of them had sold off all the bean sprouts they had taken.

“Younger Sis, the bean sprouts you grew are really good! I’ve only put it out for around an hour, and it was all sold out!” Qin Dahu said excitedly.

50 catties of bean sprouts and his younger sister only asked for a wholesale price of 50 copper coins.

He had sold it at two copper coins per catty. In just a short while, he had earned 50 copper coins.

This money was too easy to earn.

“Tomorrow, do you think you can give me another 50 catties? There’s a lot of people in the market on West Street, so 100 catties can be sold out easily!” Qin Dahu hurriedly added.

The moment he said that, Big Girl Li, Liu Xiaomei, and Wang Xiaomei’s faces all tensed up.

“The response in the market in South Street is also not bad! Our 120 catties have all been sold out too!” Big Girl Li said quickly.

Although they did not sell all the bean sprouts at two copper coins per catty, it was not a problem to sell 100 over catties in a day.

Wang Xiaomei also wanted to reply, but she held back after thinking for a while.

There were only so much bean sprouts that could be produced at home every day. If they gave more to one, they would have to give less to the other.

One was Mrs. Song’s brother from her maiden family, and the other was Mrs. Song’s close friend. What right did she have to fight with them?

Qin Xiaoyao, on the other hand, looked at Wang Xiaomei.

“How’s the situation in the market on North Street?” she asked.

Wang Xiaomei was taken aback.

“Oh, they’re all sold out too! Most of them were sold at two copper coins per catty. I gave two customers a discount of one copper coin on the overall price because they bought a lot,” she hurriedly answered.

When Big Girl Li and Liu Xiaomei heard this, their eyes flickered, but they didn’t say anything.

Qin Xiaoyao’s gaze swept across the crowd.

She thought for a moment before speaking.

“Ahem. Today we sent out the first batch of bean sprouts. I estimated that one shed can produce about 350 catties.”

“Following this, if I make more efficient use of the space in the shed, I should be able to produce about 400 catties a day.”

“Let’s take our production capacity as 400 catties of bean sprouts a day.”

“When the bean sprouts are harvested, I’ll definitely give priority to Fortune Mansion and Fortune Restaurant.”

Then, Qin Xiaoyao told everyone about Boss Fang’s request to add another 30 catties of bean sprouts.

“After deducting the 80 catties that Boss Fang ordered, there are around 320 catties left.

“My intention is to split this remaining 320 catties among the three of you.”

As she spoke, Qin Xiaoyao turned to look at Qin Dahu.

“There are many people in the market on West Street, so the vegetables should sell better. Therefore, if Big Brother doesn’t have any objections, I’ll give you 110 catties.”

Naturally, she had to take care of her maiden family.

In addition, the market on West Street was indeed much bigger.

Qin Dahu’s face lit up.

“No objections. Of course I have no objections!” he hurriedly said.

At the same time, Big Girl Li and the others looked a little disappointed.

However, they only looked at Qin Dahu with envy and didn’t show really show their true feelings.

After all, it was very normal for people to feel closer to their kin and people with blood ties.

Moreover, even if 110 catties were given away, there were still 210 catties left. It shouldn’t be a problem for them to take 100 catties.

Qin Xiaoyao nodded, then looked at Big Girl Li.

“Big Girl, the traffic volume in the market on South Street is second only to that in West Street. Plus, you and your Xiaomei are two people, so the effect of your hawking will be better.”

“If you don’t have any objections, I’ll also give you 110 catties,” Qin Xiaoyao said.

Big Girl Li’s face was filled with joy.

“Sure!” she quickly agreed.

She had only estimated that she would get 100 catties earlier. Now that she had received an additional 10 catties, how could she not be delighted?

Liu Xiaomei also looked at Big Girl Li with a big smile.

An extra 10 catties would earn them an additional 10 copper coins. That was 300 copper coins a month, which was not a small amount.

Qin Xiaoyao finally turned to look at Wang Xiaomei.

“You can have the remaining bean sprouts,” she said.

Wang Xiaomei had to help Qin Xiaoyao harvest and weigh the bean sprouts. In addition, out of the three market stalls in West Street, South Street, and North Street, she set up her stall the latest, so it was just nice for her to gather up the remaining bean sprouts to sell.

Qin Xiaoyao said that the shed produced 400 catties of bean sprouts a day, but that was only an estimate. In reality, the amount was unknown.

In short, it was fine whether there was more or less. 100 catties was more than enough for Xiaomei to sell.

“Mm-hmm!” Wang Xiaomei quickly nodded. Her eyes were bright, and she didn’t have any complaints.

Qin Xiaoyao was quite pleased inwardly.

She chatted with the others for a while more.

...

After Big Girl Li led Liu Xiaomei and left, Wang Xiaomei went to help out in the kitchen.

Qin Dahu then brought out the two baskets of chicken eggs and a small string of copper coins he had brought with him and handed them to Qin Xiaoyao.

“You also know that Father, your second brother, and I all like to eat your family’s century eggs.”

“There are 50 eggs in total. I’ll give you another 15 copper coins. Is it enough for me to exchange 50 century eggs from you?” Qin Dahu said in embarrassment.

Qin Xiaoyao took the baskets but not the copper coins.

“Forget about the money! I’ll exchange the 50 eggs for 40 century eggs. I will take the 10 eggs as my fee for my labor,” she said.

Seeing that Qin Dahu was about to speak, Qin Xiaoyao continued, “We’ll do it this way in the future. If there are no more century eggs at home, Big Brother can just send more eggs to me to exchange. However, in the future, I can only exchange 80% of the egg quantity for Big Brother.”

It was better to collect eggs than money.

After all, they had to buy many of their family’s eggs from the market. If Big Brother could send them directly, it would save some trouble for the family.

As for the century eggs, she made them every day anyway, so it wouldn’t take much time for her to make a few dozen more.

Qin Dahu was a little hesitant. The main reason was that he felt he was taking too much advantage of his younger sister’s family.

...

“If Big Brother is agreeable, I’ll go and clear the baskets and pick the century eggs for you,” Qin Xiaoyao continued.

“Alright then.” Only then did Qin Dahu agree. He thought that he would just treat his younger sister better in the future.

Qin Xiaoyao then told him, “You can sit here and wait, Big Brother.”

After that, she left with the two bamboo baskets.

She went to the storage room to empty the eggs from the baskets and then went to the section where the ripe century eggs were stored to collect the century eggs.

There were 40 in total. It didn’t take long for Qin Xiaoyao to retrieve the century eggs.

Then, she took the two baskets and handed them to Qin Dahu.

When Qin Dahu saw the two baskets filled with century eggs, his face was filled with joy.

He thanked her profusely.

“You’re still so polite to your own sister.” After teasing Qin Dahu a bit, Qin Xiaoyao sent him off.

When she returned to the courtyard, she talked to Song Que in his room for a while, and then lunch was ready.

For today’s meal, Madam Liu had followed Qin Xiaoyao’s instructions and used refined rice.

The fragrant white rice made everyone extremely happy, and they all requested an extra bowl of rice.

“This refined rice is indeed delicious, but it’s too expensive.” When they were clearing the table, Madam Liu couldn’t help but nag again.

Qin Xiaoyao smile in amusement.

“It’s good as long as you find it delicious! Our family makes so much money in a day. What’s wrong with having a little refined rice and flour?”

Madam Liu was surprised momentarily.

Then she thought of the bean sprouts at home, and her mood calmed down again.

“You’re busy enough all day long. Let Yun’er and me know what you need to do next. We can all help,” she said.
