152 Buying More Bowls and Wooden Buckets

“If they want to bring the cold cakes back, we could put one or two pieces in a small bowl, three to four pieces in a medium bowl, and five or more in a large bowl.”

“How can we do that? A small bowl costs 3 wen, and a medium bowl costs 4 to 6 wen. If the person doesn’t return the bowl, then we’ll lose money!” Liu Shi quickly said.

Li Xiao, who was riding the cart, also had a flash of doubt in his eyes, but he didn’t say anything.

He knew that Lin Xiaoyue had thought of that.

Sure enough, Lin Xiaoyue continued, “of course, we won’t give it for free. For these takeout customers, we charge an extra 4 wen for small bowls, 5 wen for medium bowls, and 7 wen for large bowls. If they bring the bowls back, we’ll return the money. If not, it’s considered sold.”

Liu Shi was shocked.

Could they do that?

“Mom, we know Boss Jin quite well. He sells us things at a cheap price. In fact, if you check other grocery stores, a small bowl is about 4 wen, and a medium bowl is 5 to 7 wen.”

Liu Shi thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case.

“Don’t worry. If a lot of people come to return the bowls, then we won’t buy as many in the future.”

Lu Shi was still trying to figure out how that worked.

Lin Xiaoyue continued to explain to her mother, “this is actually the same as selling wine in a winery. If you don’t bring a bottle with you when you buy wine, you have to pay a deposit. Did you see the bottle of wine we used at the party the day before yesterday? Did I return it?” Lin Xiaoyue asked.

“Didn’t you use it to store soap?”

Lin Xiaoyue nodded.

“The deposit for a bottle is only 5 wen. It’s about the same price as buying a bottle of the same size at a grocery store. It just so happens that we need it, so we’re too lazy to send it back.”

“A bowl is more practical than a jar. Who would mind having an extra bowl? Even if you think that you have too many bowls at home, you might forget about it when you go to the market.”

Liu Shi finally understood.

“Then…we’re also selling bowls?” She asked Lin Xiaoyue in surprise.

Lin Xiaoyue nodded.

“Yes. I’ll talk to Boss Jin later. We’ll buy all the bowls from him in the future, and the price will be lower.”

Liu Shi looked at her daughter with a satisfied expression.

Her daughter was so smart…

Lin Xiaoyue enjoyed the way her mother looked at her. Then, she told Liu Shi about the big business she secured with Ruyi Restaurant.

“T-two hundred bowls?”

The cold cakes they brought today didn’t even add up to 200 bowls!

“This is only the first order. Manager Liang said that if the cold cakes are well-received, they will increase the order amount,” Lin Xiaoyue smiled. “Ruyi Restaurant has a lot of customers. If everyone orders a bowl, even 400 bowls won’t be enough.”

“Besides, they do take outs too. If someone chooses to pack the cold cakes, the quantity will be even greater.”

Liu Shi widened her eyes.

Even 400 bowls might not be enough…

They’re hitting the jackpot with this business.

“Then…we have to buy more wooden buckets,” Liu Shi wanted to make as many cold cakes as she could.

“Yes. We have 6 small buckets at home, which is definitely not enough. I’ll buy 14 first, making it 20.”
