“Selling at a loss?” Someone was interested, “Wife of the Xiao Family, just bring out the goods.”

Su Qingyue politely said, “Please wait a moment, I’ll get them. Everyone, please come into the yard first.”

She entered the master bedroom first. Since the two men on the bed were only wearing underpants, she covered her second brother-in-law with a quilt and threw Xiao Yuchuan’s clothes at him, “Put your clothes on quickly.” Xiao Yuchuan weakly grabbed his clothes, “Wife, I have no strength.”

“Useless.” She quickly helped him and put his arms through the sleeves and then put on his pants.

Xiao Yuchuan enjoyed his wife’s service with a delighted face, but then thought about the current situation at home, and looked gloomy. “Wife, just sell the goods, why help me get dressed?”

She didn’t answer, helped him get dressed, then brought a desk into the yard and placed it there. Turning back to the master bedroom, she put Xiao Yuchuan’s arms around her shoulders and carried him directly.

“Wife, I’m heavy…” Yuchuan worried about his wife’s small frame. In case she couldn’t carry him, they would both fall. But Su Qingyue was stronger than he thought, and she walked out into the yard with him on her back.

She sat him down on a desk in the yard, then quickly went to the storage room, picked up the merchandise load with a carrying pole, and put it down three meters away from Xiao Yuchuan. “See if you guys need anything, take a look.”

The goods were packed in two bamboo baskets. She removed the slightly larger square wooden tray from the top of the baskets and displayed the goods on the large tray, including neatly stacked scraps of cloth, several scissors, needle and thread, round fans, salt, a few embroidered handkerchiefs, a small pot of salt, and some children’s wooden toys like wooden ducks.

Everyone gathered around, touching and looking at the goods.

Su Qingyue walked over to Chuan and said in a low voice, “Quickly report the usual selling prices of your goods to me.”

He understood that this was why his wife carried him out into the yard. With only a few types of goods, it was easy to skip some when not looking directly. “Fifteen cents for a pair of scissors, eight cents for an embroidered handkerchief, seven cents for a wooden duck toy…”

As he was reporting, the villagers were also listening. Someone said, “These prices are similar to what other vendors sell.”

Qian Zhang’s wife, who always loved bargains, said, “Su Qingyue, you said you

were selling cheaply.”

“Of course.” She nodded, “As everyone just heard, the prices my third brother sells at are fair. So, scissors will be twelve cents a pair, embroidered handkerchiefs four cents each, toys four cents each, scrap cloth originally one cent per piece, now three pieces for one cent…”

She reported all the prices one by one. With her keen eyes, she had already understood what the villagers wanted to buy from the way they looked at and picked up the goods.

There were only six pairs of scissors in total, pretty much all sellable. She made the prices of items likely to sell lower, and the prices of items with less interest much lower.

Upon hearing this, everyone said, “It’s so cheap…”

Qian Zhang’s wife asked, “Wife of the Xiao Family, can the price of these scissors be a little cheaper…”

Aunt Zhang glanced at her, picked up the scissors and said, “Three cents cheaper than usual is already cheap enough… These scissors are quite big, it’s hard to find them for twelve cents elsewhere, when they’re usually fifteen cents..”
