Chapter 51 (1/2)
“Yeah, I can do that, but I’m afraid the price would be…”
Laowang peeped out an embarrassed look. His incomplete words were enough for them to know what it meant. Ling Wen interrupted his dad, hurrying to say, “Daddy, why do we have to buy that kind of pots? It’s expensive.”
He knew the benefits of selling jam and had no objection if Ling Jingxuan bought more. But the kind with big belly and slender neck would be too cost-inefficient in his opinion.
“Well, it’s indeed a little expensive, but it can bring us higher returns. Xiaowen, now for us, that kind of pots is a hen that lays eggs. If you’re not willing to feed it, how can it grow up and lay more eggs?”
Ignoring Laowang’s surprise, Ling Jingxuan squatted in front of Xiaowen and said seriously. He believed that the child should have been able to accept the concept of investment before income after their successful attempts of selling jams.
“What if the wine can’t be sold out?”
After all, each cost 20 copper coins. It’s really hard for Ling Wen to convince himself to nod with agreement.
“Then let daddy be willful once. Let’s buy one hundred. What do you think?”
His bun was still young and needed time to grow mature. This year, they didn’t grow so many grapes to make wine. Ling Jingxuan could only compromise this time. When his child saw the gains in the future, the boy would definitely not oppose it again. Then they could invest heavily.
“But that would cost us two taels of sliver?!”
Ling Wen shouted without awareness, and then quickly realized his gaffes. He bowed his head and pulled Ling Jingxuan’s sleeve, face-red, and whispered, “Only this time, wait for me to return to the ox cart before paying the bill, I’m afraid I’ll regret.”
