Song Wangyue’s yell was so clear and loud that not only did the people upstairs hear it, but also those downstairs, who looked upwards.
As soon as they heard that they could try it out, the students who had been puzzled earlier came forward, and the first one was followed by the second.
Gu Yi instantly blocked in front of Song Wan Yue and the back basket, “Don’t crowd, try one by one.”
They were all scholars, they couldn’t do anything like squeezing their heads to take advantage of the situation, and no one really pushed and squeezed.
Song Si picked up a bottle of peppermint oil and uncorked it, gestured to the person at the front to spread it out, put two drops in his heart, and then showed him how to use it.
The rest of the group watched with rapt attention.
The man dabbed a little with his index finger and gently rubbed it on his temple, froze incredulously, then quickly dabbed the rest on the other side of his temple and stood motionless.
“Well?”
The man behind him asked eagerly.
Without speaking, the man bent down and took the bottle, pulling out a small dime of broken silver.
Song Si took it in a panic and turned around to go back inside to find the money.
The rest of the people took a look and immediately came forward, asking to try it out, and the upstairs was a hive of activity for a while, with the students at the bottom coming up, and even the shopkeeper and the fellows coming up to look at it curiously.
Master Sun’s room was not far away from theirs, so naturally Sun Jin heard the commotion over here and snorted disdainfully, “What a disgrace to the scholars.”
“Shut up!”
Master Sun was sitting at the table waiting for Sun Cai to dissolve the pills when he heard the words and turned around to scold him.
Sun Jin brushed his mouth in disdain, but did not say anything else. Although he had taken the pills, he still had no strength in his body and was too lazy to argue with Master Sun about anything else.
Sun Cai picked up the bowl where the pills had been dissolved and dipped his finger into it, smacking it into his mouth for a while before picking it up again and taking a sip, squinting his eyes to feel the ingredients of the pills.
Master Sun kept looking at him, although he trusted Song Si and Song Wan Yue, this was after all about Sun Jin’s health, if he really had any accidents after taking it and could not enter the examination hall, he would not even be able to cry then.
“Wonderful.”
Sun Cai’s tiny eyes glowed, “Master, not only is this pill made from the finest herbs, even the formula is very exquisite, young master will definitely benefit from it.”
Master Sun was relieved, “That’s good, that’s good.”
This pill is convenient and easy to carry, so even if Jin’er’s body has not fully recovered before entering the examination hall, he will not be afraid.
Sun Cai was still immersed in the subtleties of the recipe and couldn’t help but pick up the bowl again and take a sip.
“In your opinion, how much can this pill be worth in silver?”
“Good recipe, good herbs, worth a good price, it’s not easy to estimate exactly how much.”
……
After trying it out, the schoolchildren paid for it in droves.
Seeing that everyone else was buying bottles, they all followed suit and in no time, half of the peppermint oil in the back basket was sold.
Song Wan Yue’s voice was clear, “Everyone, the original cost of this peppermint oil is one hundred dollars, now we are selling it to you for one hundred and twenty, each bottle earns you twenty dollars, we can’t bear to do this, so as long as any of you bring people over to buy it, I will refund you another ten for each bottle.”
“Does the girl mean that we will be refunded ten if we bring one person, or will we be refunded ten no matter how many people we bring?”
One of the students who had bought the peppermint oil was just about to leave, when he stopped dead in his tracks and asked.
“It’s a refund by the bottle, ten for one bottle, twenty for two, the more you buy the more you get back.”
“Is there such a good thing?”
The students who knew each place well came in pairs, staying at different inns because of their families’ circumstances. Even if Song Wangyue didn’t say anything about such a good thing, they would go and tell those students who were staying at other inns they knew well. If they really brought someone to buy a bottle, they could get ten themselves, which could be considered an unexpected income.
Of course, there were also those whose families were rich and did not care about this matter, and after hearing this, they left without looking back.
“That is natural, not only that, I can also sell it here on your behalf, that is, I will give it to you wholesale at one hundred and five, you take it and sell it for as much as you like, and I will take back the rest at one hundred and five if you can’t sell it all.”
Not many people responded to this one, after all, there were still a few days to go before the exams and they had to hurry up with their books.
The students dispersed, and Gu Yi again had the good sense to carry the basket in and put it in its original place, and came back to stare excitedly at the coins and broken silver on the table, “Little girl, you are really capable, you sold so much in a short while!”
Song Si hadn’t expected it either. Just now he was still inside the house wondering how to sell the peppermint oil, but he didn’t expect Yue’er to come up with such a good idea.
“This is only the end of the story, more people will come to buy tomorrow, let’s eat dinner and go to bed early today, tomorrow big brother will read in your house while young master Gu and I sell peppermint oil.”
“Good.” Gu Yi answered excitedly.
It was just the two of us, him and the little girl, and he could whisper to her.
Then he collapsed his little face again, “Little girl, I’m hungry, when are we going to eat?”
Song Wangyue received the silver and called for the fellows to send up dinner, and after eating, she went to bed early.
The next morning, quite a few people came in, and when they entered the inn, they went straight upstairs.
Song Wangyue and Gu Yi had already brought out the basket and set it up at the door. After asking who had brought them here, they told him to stand to the side and remember how many bottles he had bought, and when they had finished, they gave him the money.
The man took it and yelled at the men to go outside, “All this money is earned from you, and I’m not taking it all for myself, come on, I’ll treat you to breakfast.”
^0^ One second to remember [ ]
One after another came, as few as one person, as many as six, all buying at least one bottle.
Song Si couldn’t resist and came out to help again, and was busy until nearly noon before stopping.
Song Wan Yue wiped the sweat from her forehead, “Big brother, I thought I told you to stay inside and read, why did you come out to help again?”
The mint in the basket was almost at the bottom, and Song Si was so happy that his voice lightened up, “Nothing, it’s not just a day and a half, besides, listening to you guys working outside, I couldn’t read in the house.”
“So… ……”
Song Wan Yue thought for a moment, before she could think, the shopkeeper came upstairs carrying the hem of her dress, “Mr. Song, Miss Song.”
“Shopkeeper, something wrong?”
The shopkeeper arched, “It’s like this, there are too many people coming to our shop today, it’s so noisy that it’s affecting the students who live in our shop to read their books, will you two take a look at ……?”
Song Wangyue understood, busy saying, “It’s our poor consideration, don’t worry, we’ll go outside to sell in the afternoon.”
The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, he was still muttering in his heart when he came up here, afraid that he had upset them by saying this and had checked out of the room to stay elsewhere. But with so many scholars coming and going, it did affect the scholars staying at the shop, and he had no choice.
