Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The cake was wrapped in oil paper and placed in a basin to be carried in a backpack.

The oil paper was borrowed by Gu Shouxin when he went to the old house yesterday to borrow the ox. The old house happened to have oil paper.

The whole family went to the old house to inform him and then got into the ox-cart. Gu Shouxin drove the cart away.

“Shouxin, are you going to visit your relatives? Why are you the only one going?”

“I’m not going to visit my relatives. I’m going to the town to buy some things.”

“Second Brother Gu, I heard that you owe money again. I say, kid, you’re already so old. Don’t go and mess around anymore. You’ll bring trouble to your wife and children.”

“Yeah, I know!”

“Second Brother Gu, I want to go to the town! Can you give me a ride?”

“One wen. Come on up!”

“What? You want a wen from the villagers? Do they know that you’re using your parents’ ox-cart to earn money? Aunt Xianglan chased you out of the house. Do you have any shame?”

“It’s none of your business!”

Along the way, many people talked to him. Gu Shouxin answered them nicely. He didn’t answer those who were unkind or ignored them.

Because of the penny, no one sat in their ox-cart in the end.

Except for Gu Xin who felt sorry for the penny, the other three thought it was the best.

“Our parents asked just now. Why didn’t you tell them the price we set?” Cai Xiaolian asked after they left the village.

“We’ll talk about it when we get back. If we tell them now, they’ll only be worried that we won’t be able to sell,” Gu Shouxin said.

“Actually, I’m also a little worried that we won’t be able to sell,” Gu Nian continued.

She had gotten a rough idea of the prices in this era from the things that Gu Shouxin had bought last night.

She felt that it was really high for them to set the price of the cake at this price.

The piece they had cut was only the size of an inkstone, and the materials used were simple. She felt that it would be fine if there were more materials.

“Nian Nian, you don’t have to worry about that. You’re good at making things, but you’re definitely not as good at selling things. When selling things, we have to find the right target customers so that we won’t take the wrong path. Besides, the cake you made is fresh food, and there aren’t any others who have it. Now that we’re alone, the price is naturally up to us.” Cai Xiaolian taught Gu Nian a lesson.

“Mother, what’s the target customer?” Gu Xin asked curiously.

Gu Nian understood immediately and understood Cai Xiaolian’s meaning.

“Mother, let me give you an example. For example, the headband on your head. Most of the people who like it are young girls from the countryside who haven’t married yet. So, you young girls are like the target customers of the merchants who sell headbands. Because only you will buy them. Those little boys won’t sell them. Those little girls from rich families have beautiful headbands, so they don’t want them,” Cai Xiaolian said.

“Mom, then everyone will like our cake. Everyone needs it, right?” Gu Xin asked in confusion.

“That’s a good question.” Cai Xiaolian smiled. The little girl was not stupid. “Mom will give you another example! In the town, um, no, every time the salesman in the village brings all kinds of gadgets, does everyone in the village like them?”

“Yes.” Gu Xin nodded.

“Then, do you buy all of them?” Cai Xiaolian asked again.

“No, many of them are going to have a look. Not all of them are bought.” Gu Xin thought about the scenes of salesmen selling things in the village that she had seen in recent years and answered.

“Then, do you know why, Xin Xin?” Cai Xiaolian asked with a smile.
