After unlocking the material space, I raised my younger siblings in a farmhouse.

Lin Chuyi had never been to the fishing village in this world, so she naturally didn't know the specific prices. But for Wang Fugui today, whether he could make a profit was no longer the primary goal. Whether he could successfully sell the goods was the most important thing. So Lin Chuyi was not worried that Wang Fugui would reject her proposal.

Sure enough, Wang Fugui gave a new price without much hesitation.

"Since you really want to buy, I'll give you a real price. I can sell you seaweed for 20 wen per pound and seafood for 80 wen per pound. Don't think it's expensive. These things are cheaper in their place of origin, but these seafood are carefully selected, and I shipped them from far away, so the transportation fee and labor cost must also be taken into account. I've already lost money on this trip, and I don't expect to make money on this batch of goods, but at least I have to recover my costs, right?"

"How much stock do you have at the inn?"

Wang Fugui didn't expect Lin Chuyi to ask this. He was stunned for a moment but finally told the truth.

"There are still more than 6,000 kilograms."

Lin Chuyi calculated that according to Wang Fugui's quotation, it would cost more than four hundred taels to buy all the goods.

Lin Chuyi could take out the money, but there was no need to. The goods on the stall were enough for her to eat until she reached the end of her life. Although dried seafood tasted good, she preferred fresh ones.

After thinking about it, Lin Chuyi decided to just take the batch of goods in front of him.

"Seaweed is 10 wen per pound, and the others are 50 wen per pound. If you agree, I'll take all the things on your stall."

Wang Fugui calculated the value of these goods according to the price given by Lin Chuyi, and found that they could only be sold for about six taels in total.

Wang Fugui was a little conflicted. He thought that six taels of silver was far from enough to carry such a large amount of goods over such a long distance.

There are not many people who agree to buy seafood so readily. If she leaves, who knows where the next person who knows the goods will be. No, I have to find a way to get her to buy more.

"Well, doesn't your master like to eat seafood? If you buy more, I can give you a lower price. Is that okay?"

Lin Chuyi shook his head and Wang Fugui sighed in disappointment.

"Okay then, wait for me."

You agree now? You don't even struggle? I haven't experienced the joy of bargaining yet. You make me feel that I have bargained too little and I feel a little bit at a loss.

Lin Chuyi was a little conflicted, but he had already said it, and it would be unkind to change his words now. Lin Chuyi didn't lack the money, so he just shut up.

Wang Fugui walked towards the vegetable vendor.

The vegetable vendor had said something he shouldn't have said before, and when he met Wang Fugui's eyes, he felt a little guilty and didn't dare to look him in the eye.

But he caught a glimpse of Wang Fugui walking towards him. The vegetable vendor thought that Wang Fugui was responsible for the failure of the business because of his interference just now, so he put all the blame on him and came to settle the score with him.

The vegetable vendor was panicking and was planning to take the initiative. He suddenly stood up and raised his head towards Wang Fugui, trying to overwhelm him with his momentum, but his words trembled.

"What... do you want to do? Don't... come over here!"

Wang Fugui was puzzled by his look, but remembering his purpose, he smiled at the vegetable vendor.

"Don't get me wrong, little brother. I just want to borrow your scale to weigh something."

Wang Fugui pointed to the scale bar and weight placed at the vegetable vendor's feet.

"Ah? Oh." The vegetable vendor realized that Wang Fugui was not here to settle accounts with him, and he was obviously relieved.

Thinking of how he had previously obstructed other people's business, he felt somewhat guilty. At this time, Wang Fugui came to borrow a scale, and the vegetable vendor took the opportunity to agree.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I thought... I gave it to you, don't break it!"

The vegetable vendor bent down and picked up the scale rod and weight on the ground, and when he handed them to Wang Fugui, he did not forget to give him a few words of advice.

"Got it, thank you, little brother."

After Wang Fugui thanked him, he took the things back to his stall and started weighing various dried seafood for Lin Chuyi.

He didn't have this skill originally. He learned it from seeing someone doing it while collecting seafood in a fishing village. Now that he was doing it himself, he was a little clumsy.

Lin Chuyi didn't know how to use the weighing tools at that time, so he could only help out from the side.

After Wang Fugui's operation, accurate data was obtained.

The two kinds of seaweed together weighed 354 jin, worth a total of 6185 wen. The other dried seafood weighed a total of jin, worth a total of wen.

In other words, Lin Chuyi needed to pay Wang Fugui 6539 coins. Lin Chuyi directly took out seven taels of silver from his purse and handed it to Wang Fugui.

Wang Fugui was a little hesitant holding the silver. He had no change and was struggling over whether he should return one or two taels of the silver to Lin Chuyi.

If this had happened in the past few years when expenses were high, one meal could cost several taels of silver, and they would pay the bill without blinking an eye. Sometimes, if they were happy, they would even give out the change as a reward.

Things are different now. He is short of money, very short of money. The few hundred extra coins are enough to pay for several days' rent.

Lin Chuyi noticed his hesitation and suddenly said to him, "If I can give you an idea so that you can sell those goods smoothly, can you forgive me the few hundred coins?"

"Do you have a solution?" Wang Fugui's eyes lit up when he heard that.

Lin Chu nodded. This man had a three-star talent in business, which was considered average. However, he lacked experience and was not good at judging people, which led to his current situation.

Meeting is destiny, and Lin Chuyi thought that he had a good character, so she didn't mind helping him at this time and making good friends with him.

"If you can really help me sell that batch of goods, let alone rounding off the decimal point, I can give you all these things without charging a penny," said Wang Fugui.

"That's not necessary. Since you agree, let's go. It's getting late and I don't have that much time to waste." Lin Chuyi looked at the sky and spoke.

"Okay!" Wang Fugui agreed and started to pack up the stall.

Although he didn't know what Lin Chuyi wanted to do specifically, Wang Fugui had an inexplicable sense of trust in Lin Chuyi. He believed that the girl in front of him would not lie to him.

Wang Fugui tied up several cloth bags, tied them into two bundles, strung them together with a shoulder pole, and then returned the borrowed scale to the vegetable vendor.

Wang Fugui picked up the small stool he had been sitting on, carried the carrying pole on his shoulders, and followed Lin Chuyi out of the market.

The vegetable vendor didn't know what Lin Chuyi and Wang Fugui were talking about. When he saw Wang Fugui leaving behind Lin Chuyi, he was dumbfounded. Was he selling himself as well while selling goods?

However, he soon stopped thinking about these things. With the departure of Wang Fugui and those seafood, customers came to the vegetable vendor one after another to buy fresh vegetables.

The vegetable vendor's business began to return to normal, and after that day, he never saw Wang Fugui at the market again.
