Wenxiu looked at the woman and then at the Fang family. She initially wanted to line up with the Fang family, but in the end, she apologized to the woman and overweighed the Fang family's three catties of potato flour.

This scale was borrowed from Guan and Zhang family. It was densely packed on the weighing pole and it was neither good nor good. Compared to the electronic scales of the modern era, it was far worse. If she wasn't smart enough and learned enough to sell, she wouldn't have been able to sell so easily even if someone bought her some potato powder.

Since ancient times, there were no plastic bags, so Wenxiu washed the asphalt clean. She put a rope around the asphalt and put the potato powder inside to make it easier to weigh. This way, it would be convenient, but it would also allow him to drain the water, and he wouldn't have to take advantage of the villagers.

Wenxiu weighed three pounds, then asked Lady Fang to bring a basin for her. The Fang family had no way out, so they left in a hurry with empty hands. Where would they find a basin? In the end, Wenxiu had no choice but to bring out a basin from the kitchen and let her put it back. Then he told her what he had done, and he also told them about it.

Although the Fang family loved to take small advantages, they still had some face. Although his heart ached for the six copper coins, he did not fool around with Wen Xiu. Most importantly, she remembered Wenxiu's previous words. If it wasn't tasty, she would return to Guan Wenxiu to repay the money, and she wouldn't suffer any loss at all.

Wenxiu took the copper coin from the Fang family's hands, but it was as heavy as ten million catties. One had to know that after she came to this world, she relied on her own labor. Although she didn't have much money, her heart was boiling hot.

Therefore, she only came back to her senses after the Fang family had left for a good opportunity.

With the Fang family taking the lead to buy potato powder, the onlookers no longer hesitated and shouted for Wenxiu to weigh the weight. Everyone weighed two to three catties, and the twenty odd catties of potato powder from Wenxiu's ten thousand pots were all swept away in an instant. The person at the back did not manage to buy any. He even had a look of displeasure on his face as he shouted for Wenxiu to do more tomorrow. As for those who bought it, all of them went back happily.

Some people with good intentions would show off their potato powder to someone who did not buy it, provoking a burst of anger from the other party. However, he himself laughed out loud, as if he had picked up a great deal of money.

When she thought about it, Wenxiu patted her chest and promised that if the potato flour she bought was not tasty, she would repay the money back in full. Even if it didn't taste good, wouldn't it be worth it to pay back the silver with potato powder?

The noise outside the courtyard gradually dispersed. Wen Xiu put the last four coins she had received into her pocket, then busied herself with pouring water from the basin and cleaning it. After cleaning the courtyard, she closed the door and happily entered the room, closing the door as well.

There had been people who had bullied Tree and Tong Tong. The two siblings were a little scared, so they hid inside the house and did not go out. When they saw their mother enter, they happily called out "mother" before running towards Wen Xiu.

Wen Xiu pulled the child to the table and sat him down. Then, she took out the money she had earned from selling potato powder today. After counting, there were a total of forty-eight copper coins. In addition to the capital he had earned from buying potatoes, he had also earned around 30 gold coins. Previously, she had told people that the cost was slightly more than a copper coin. That was purely a method of doing business. Do you know that even if you don't earn money in business, you still drink the wind?

Although 30 gold wasn't a lot, it was still the first bucket of gold that she had ever earned!

Tree and Tong looked at the copper coin, their eyes shining with golden light. Their eyes were filled with surprise and joy, their small faces brimming with unspeakable happiness.

"Here, one for each of you. Wait until the aunt and uncle who sells candies passes by the village, you guys can go buy candies to eat." Wen Xiu generously handed the two copper coins to the child. Then, she reminded him, "You need to put them away properly. If they drop, there won't be any more sugar to eat!"

This was the first time Tree and Tong Tong had touched the lines of the copper coin. They were so excited that they almost screamed, before carefully putting it away in their arms, solemn like Wen Xiu who had promised she would put it away. When his sugar aunt and uncle came to the village, he would buy some candy.

Wenxiu didn't give her child money to show off. Instead, she felt that when a child grew up, he would always have a bit of pocket money on him. Otherwise, how envious would they be when they saw other children eating snacks outside? What's more, she couldn't bear to see her siblings watch others eat with their white teeth and eyes. It would only remind her of her own past.

After getting the money, the tree and Tong Tong stopped pestering their mother, opened the door and went out to play with Chen Chunwang. Wen Xiu urged the two of them not to run far away before she packed the money and went back to peeling potatoes.

Although Wenxiu had guaranteed that the goods would be refunded in full, she was confident that the potato powder would be able to tame the taste buds of the buyers. She was not worried about other people returning the goods. On the contrary, after these people finished eating, they would certainly clamor without restraint and brazenly show off the fact that they had bought potato flour to eat.

Today's potato powder was only a small quantity, and not many people would buy it. But tomorrow, there would definitely be more people buying it. She waited until everyone in the village had tasted it, then she took the potato powder to the neighboring village to sell and expand the sales market. Even though she knew there would be more people buying tomorrow, she planned to try out the marketing of "Hunger Marketing" in the backwater. He couldn't just give up more benefits for the sake of this little benefit, could he?

As a result, Wenxiu only peeled the same amount of potatoes as yesterday. After lunch, she went to the mill to grind the pulp.

With the experience from the first two times, Wenxiu could handle the millstones by herself, even though she would definitely be slower than the other two. However, she didn't panic in the slightest. At most, she would just have to work overtime at night. Song Xiaoyue didn't have a good time at the Wang family. She couldn't possibly trouble them every day, right?

For three consecutive days, Wenxiu was sold regularly and quantitatively every day. This caused the villagers who failed to buy her to feel indignant. But even so, what could they do? The most he could do was grumble a few times, then line up the next day to buy potato flour.

Actually, this was all because of the novelty and competitive spirit. Otherwise, what difference did it make if he ate today and ate tomorrow? At most, it would be a little later!

It was a pity that no one was willing to give up. After all, how come they could eat but not their own? Although everyone was poor and living a tight life, they still had enough money to eat a meal of potato powder!

The potato powder had been sold for three days, but none of those who wanted to take advantage of the potato powder and call for a refund did so. Even the Fang family, who was the first to come up with a plan, bought another four Jin on the second day. Not for anything else, Chen Liang had come back from town, and the family wanted something good to eat.

After rationing the supply, Wenxiu achieved the effect of starvation marketing, which gave the villagers the false impression that they could not meet the demand, and the villagers became even more enthusiastic about her potato flour. As long as the village could have a full meal and had two families with spare money, they would all be able to step through her courtyard within three days.

Wen Xiu was inwardly amused, but her face showed that she was not. She also promised that she would do more to sell them tomorrow. That afternoon, she invited Song Xiaoyue and Zhang Shi. The three of them worked together and tripled the quantity from the previous two days.
