Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 989: Eighty taels

As Yu Dong expected, they did not even have to stay till the afternoon to finish selling their stock. By the time it was noon, the entire boxes of vegetables and fruits were sold out and not even a single leaf of spinach was left behind. Granted that her fame had reached most of the officials' family and she did not have to worry about not being able to sell her vegetables anymore.          

    

After all, what did the official have in their pockets with no limits? It was money. They did not lack money but given how there was only a limited amount of vegetables in the market because of the shortage of rain last year, there were indeed very few vegetable vendors selling fresh vegetables and those who were selling fresh vegetables ---- their products were not even half as good as hers.     

From pregnant mers to the elderly. And from tired officials to those who were trying for a child, everyone wanted to grab hold of a few catties of her family's vegetables!      

With such a big crowd how can Yu Dong even have anything left in her shop?

When the onlookers saw that Yu Dong's family was done selling more than thirty boxes of vegetables in just three hours they were stunned. The middle-aged mer and some young mers who were working hard to sell their products on the street where Yu Dong's shop was, were truly envious. They could not understand how in the world Yu Dong was able to sell so many vegetables in just three hours and that too at such an exorbitant price!      

" Just what kind of magic has she cast on those rich mers and young masters, how can they buy those tomatoes and cucumbers that cost more than three taels?"      

" I have no idea what she is doing but I do think that those wealthy mers have gotten crazy. Just how good can these vegetables be? At most, they are only bigger and juicier than the rest?"      

" You don't know, the other vendors thought the same thing which was why they deliberately ripend their vegetables until they were rich and dark in colour. They sold those vegetables saying that their vegetables were just as good as those shops but then what happened? They were beaten to the ground for lying!"      

" Why were they beaten?"      

" What else? They all said that their vegetables were not worth the price at all."      

" Wealthy people are weird. Vegetables are vegetables in the end, why is there a need to buy an expensive one either way? We only need to eat vegetables such that we won't die out of starvation but people are caring about taste and freshness? As long as it's not rotten everything is fine!" A woman rolled her eyes as she looked at Yu Dong's shop which was out of stock. " I agree that this woman's vegetables are indeed good but there is no need to buy something so expensive! They can help so many vendors if they were to use that money and buy a little something from us."      

The middle-aged mer next to the woman rolled his eyes and then commented, " You only know how to speak, I bet if you were earning so much money you wouldn't have said a word as you would be too busy counting money. Anyway, the girl is selling her vegetables and not forcing anyone to buy them, the husbands of those officials are buying those vegetables because even their wives and children are eating them. You know how officials are, they only eat meat and completely forget to eat vegetables."      

" The same could be said for children, they are even tougher than their mothers as they are picky but I heard from some customers of mine that ever since they started buying vegetables from this shop, their children started eating vegetables without a fuss."      

When the woman heard that Yu Dong's vegetables were so popular her eyes flickered as she stepped forward ignoring the baskets of vegetables that were sitting on the stall that she had built and ignoring the mammies who were standing on guards, walked inside the shop.

She walked close to Yu Dong who was helping the mammies pick up the boxes and then glanced at the box of money which Chen Mi closed quite quickly but even so, the woman caught sight of more than ten taels and her eyes flashed with greed.      

Ten taels? If she could earn ten taels in a month then she would be able to live her life in comfort!      

Thus, she thickened her skin and then turned to look at Yu Dong with a smile before asking, " Miss Yu, do you grow these vegetables yourself? They are quite fresh and good."      

Yu Dong looked at the middle-aged woman, her eyes fell on the dirt-filled nails and cracks in the hands of the woman and understood why this woman was here which was why she nodded her head and then nodded before replying, " We do."      This chapter is updated by ɴovelFɪre.net

The middle-aged woman's eyes brightened as she immediately took a step forward and then pressed Yu Dong even more as she said, " Miss if you do not mind then why don't you share some vegetables with me? I am a vegetable vendor as well. If you can sell some to me then you will be doing a good deed, my mother is sick and she is in urgent need of some medical care,  if you don't mind then…." When the woman spoke she looked at Yu Dong with a smile but Yu Dong knew that she was trying to pressure her into giving into her wishes.      

What was more, Yu Dong looked at the vendors who were staring at her with attentive gazes and knew that if she was to refuse then she might offend many.      

Thus she smiled and said, " Sure but my vegetables are not cheap…but since we open our shop on the same street, I will sell them to you for eight silver taels, what do you say?"
