Meanwhile, Ge Hetong was selling his pea cakes with a lively voice outside the door.

The street was bustling, with many people going to the tofu shop. This popularity was promising. Occasionally people would stop to admire the bright yellow pea cake and couldn’t resist buying a piece.

Watching the pile of pea cakes dwindle, with only a few left, Ge Hetong couldn’t suppress the smile on his face.

See, his idea to move the stall here was just brilliant!

The tofu, as usual, was sold out by noon. Zhuang Qingning got a sense from Mrs. Cao of how many people came to buy tofu in the afternoon after it was sold out yesterday. She stayed longer and observed carefully. Once she had an idea, she went home with Zhuang Qingning.

Zhuang Qingning was instructed to go back and rest while Zhuang Qingning hurried to find Zhuang Yonghe. She discussed the plan to start producing tofu twice a day, early morning and afternoon, at the mill from tomorrow. She arranged for the previously appointed workers to familiarize themselves with the tofu workshop in the evening and start working directly tomorrow.

Zhuang Yonghe promptly agreed: “The workers are the same two people you have met before, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Fang. They are all honest and capable of working. I’ll have your aunt go talk to them later.”

“Something just struck me. We’ve been transporting tofu to the town with the help of Bai San using the bullock cart. It has been convenient so far, but now that we also need to transport tofu to the town in the afternoon, how will we arrange the bullock cart?”

Zhuang Qingning rubbed her forehead: “I’ve been busy with so many things recently, I indeed forgot about this detail.”

Dong Dazhu was responsible for transporting tofu to the county town, Bai San to the local town, and Zhuang Yonghe directly took tofu from the tofu workshop. Since there was no mistake in these arrangements, Zhuang Qingning slightly overlooked this aspect.

“Are there any families in our village who have a bullock cart and are willing to travel to the town? If not, we could rent it for the entire month or year. Uncle Yonghe, could you ask around if anyone is willing to do this job?”

Zhuang Qingning added, “This person needs to be honest and trustworthy, and it would be even better if he could come at short notice.”

“I’ll look around in the village first. Now that it’s not the farming season, it should be manageable. However, whether it can be done on a long-term basis, I’m not sure.”

Those in the village who own a bullock cart are usually robust laborers. They usually do farming work at home and look for jobs during their free time. If it’s for the long term, not everyone might be able to take up this job.

“Let me search around first. If I really can’t find anyone for the long term, it won’t be a big problem to find someone temporarily for the next few days. Just leave this to me. I will find someone suitable.”

“Alright,” Zhuang Qingning nodded.

“Uncle Yonghe.”
