The boy quickly took out a few pieces of paper and spread them out for Lin Xia to see. "This is the best paper in our store. It costs five taels of silver per knife."

Five taels of silver per sword, one sword is equivalent to a hundred pieces!

That's fifty cents for a joint book!

A fifty cent piece was enough to sell a pound of bacon sausage...

If the two younger ones practice calligraphy, they will basically just scribble on the front.

I still can’t afford this, so forget it.

"Is there any cheaper paper?" Lin Xia couldn't help but ask.

The clerk quickly took out a knife of paper next to him and said, "This is the cheapest paper, one hundred cents per knife."

Lin Xia took a look and saw that the paper was light yellow and had burrs on it. If this kind of paper were written on, wouldn't it be just a lump of ink?

"We also have slightly better paper like this here." Seeing Lin Xia's expression, the boy quickly took out another kind, "This kind of paper costs five hundred cents per knife."

Lin Xia looked over. This paper was not as white and delicate as the most expensive ones, but it was much better than the cheapest ones just now.

Five hundred cents per sword is equivalent to five cents per sword. Five cents is enough to buy three eggs.

Lin Xia gritted her teeth and said, "Buy something like this for two knives!" Pointing to the one the clerk just took out.

"Where are the pens and inkstones?" Since I bought them, I have to buy them all.

The prices of pens vary, and the most expensive one costs about ten taels. Lin Xia bought a not very cheap one, one or two taels per pen. I thought it would be okay to practice calligraphy.

Lin Xia looked around the inkstone and found that it was not cheap.

A good one will cost about ten taels.

Lin Xia chose a three-liang inkstone.

All these things cost 24 taels of silver. Lin Xia's flesh ached terribly.

I have spent almost half of my family's money.

Su Chengming's body ached beside him. Although the money was not his, he felt as if he was cutting his own flesh.

Qinghe and Ningning were obediently silent.

However, Lin Xia's painful look did not escape Qinghe's eyes.

When Lin Xia paid, Qinghe secretly made up his mind that he must study hard in the future.

Then I make a lot of money for my mother and make her count the money until her hands cramp.

Lin Xia: Then I thank you!

When paying, the boy saw that Lin Xia had bought so much, so he discussed with the shopkeeper and gave Lin Xia a knife of cheaper paper.

Lin Xia put it away, thinking that they could use this first when they practice calligraphy.

After buying the book, I thought about going to Buzhuang. When I went to Buzhuang, I passed by the medicine hall. Lin Xia walked in alone. Su Chengming, holding Ningning and Qinghe, were waiting outside.

It's not that Lin Xia doesn't want to take them in, but she feels that these are places for medical treatment, and children should stay away, otherwise it will be bad if they are infected.

Lin Xia told Su Chengming to keep an eye on the two of them and not to wander around.

When Lin Xia entered the medicine hall, a figure that had been following him flashed out again, staring at the three people standing at the door of the medicine hall.

Shopkeeper Qian recognized Lin Xia as soon as she entered, "Mrs. Su is here. What good herbs did you bring today?"

He took out the ginseng from the basket and handed it to shopkeeper Qian.

At first, shopkeeper Qian thought it was some kind of herbal medicine, but after taking it, he was stunned.

This ginseng is said to be at least 100 years old, and the ginseng roots are still alive.

"Ms. Su, did you find this on the mountain?" Shopkeeper Qian looked at it carefully and found that such ginseng was really not that easy to find.

"Yes, I found it on the mountain. I wonder how much shopkeeper Qian thinks it's worth?"

Lin Xia mentally estimated that it was worth more than 80 taels.

Shopkeeper Qian smiled and stretched out a finger.

Twelve? !

Not so much!

"How about 100 taels?!" Shopkeeper Qian quoted the price directly. This ginseng will be of great use if you collect it yourself.

100 two!

It’s much higher than my expectations!

Lin Xia never expected that shopkeeper Qian would give him such a high salary.

"What a deal!" In the end, Lin Xia concluded the deal happily. Only then did she directly take out a 100-tael banknote without taking any money.

"Shopkeeper, this ginseng is only worth 100 taels if it's dead. You just want it, but we don't make any profit at all?" asked the waiter next to him.

This time he really didn't see through his shopkeeper's intentions.

"Sometimes it seems like I am not making any money, but I am actually making a lot of money." He had an intuition that this Mrs. Su is not simple, and she will definitely give him a different surprise when the time comes!

Especially those herbs for next year, I am super excited thinking about them now.

The guy didn't understand what it meant, so he stopped asking.

After Lin Xia came out, she took Qinghe's hand and took them to Buzhuang.

Originally, shopkeeper Chen didn't have high hopes for Lin Xia, but Lin Xia's appearance surprised her.

When I promised her [-]% of the income, I thought it would be great if I could make money.

If he didn't make any money, there would be no need for him to give Lin Xia a share.

After all, he promised to give her [-]% of the profit after making money.

Lin Xia looked at Shopkeeper Chen's surprise. She probably didn't expect that she would come so soon.

"Sister, you're here, I thought I had to wait for a few days." Shopkeeper Chen is also a human spirit, and now he is very comfortable, the waiter said.

Lin Xia didn't expose her, after all, she had verbally promised and didn't bring anything.

"This is your child, he looks so good-looking." Shopkeeper Chen looked at the two children and couldn't help but praise them.

"Hello, auntie, she is good-looking too." Ningning's little mouth shouted sweetly, "You are the first female shopkeeper that Ningning has ever seen!"

This sentence immediately resonated into Shopkeeper Chen's heart.

"Oh, this little mouth is so sweet, isn't it Ning Ning? Come let Auntie give her a hug." Shopkeeper Chen directly took the person over.

"How cute! This must be your son!" Shopkeeper Chen couldn't help but feel envious when he looked at the pair of children.

"Yes, this is my son, Qinghe, and this is my brother, Chengming." Lin Xia introduced.

"Hello, aunt." Qinghe also greeted obediently.

"Thank you, Shopkeeper Chen." Su Chengming stood behind and nodded politely.

Lin Xia took out a few clothes hangers she had made before, "Shopkeeper Chen, try this hanger. This is the easiest way to hang clothes. There are other ones that can directly display clothes."

Lin Xia hung a suit of ready-made clothes on the hanger at the instruction of shopkeeper Chen.

"At that time, shopkeeper Chen can hang the clothes directly on the wall, so that customers can see the clothes and be attracted to them as soon as they come in."

Shopkeeper Chen felt that Lin Xia's trick was really wonderful. He had never thought about it before.
