Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Definitely Able to Buy the Ox Cart
“Going from village to village to sell goods? Who does that?”
Not only Senior Changfeng, even Lin Baiyi and Ms.Lin of Yang Family laughed.
No one has ever heard of soone lugging a cart full of brooms, dustpans, pot brushes, etc. to sell door-to-door. Moreover, will anyone even buy these things?
“The reason it’ll sell is because it doesn’t exist elsewhere.”
Lin Caisang, hearing Lin Baiyi chiming in, suddenly perked up, and sat down seriously.
“Third Uncle, think about it, when you carry work door-to-door, isn’t it the sa concept? It’s just you making verbal promises, with people not seeing the actual product, so naturally, they hesitate about whether to shell out money for things like furniture.
But if you haul the actual products, for instance, rice sieves, bran sieves, food boxes, and benches, we don’t need to haul large items. We could sell these small items, a cart can carry a lot, and it’s not just limited to these items.
Make things like wooden horses, spinning tops, things that children love the most. They’re cheap and can be played with for a long ti. If they have children at ho, they might purchase them. Additionally, we can also include a few brooms, dustpans, pot brushes, carrying poles on the cart. We should be able to sell so, right?”
“This…”
Lin Baiyi, having heard what she said, gritted his teeth.
“Baiyi, I think Sangsang’s idea is really good.”
Ms.Lin of Yang Family thought that Lin Caisang’s idea was genuinely good, it suited the needs of won in the village.
“As a woman, I understand a woman’s thinking the best. If you couldn’t do carpentry work, we’d need to go outside to buy tables and stools for our ho. But if we have to go to town to buy, after thinking for a day or two, we’d probably decide to make do with what we have.
But, if things are right before our eyes, and we can buy them by rely reaching out, the items are small, and only cost a few copper pieces, I might be prompted to buy it, despite not many people doing so. Even if we only sell a few items a day, just making enough to afford a al is good enough.
Besides, you’re sitting at ho, and when you go out to find work for the day with no news, it’s the sa thing. You don’t even see a single copper piece.”
“Uh.”
Lin Baiyi’s face turned red at his wife’s words.
Indeed, he was out working for a few days and if he could earn ten copper pieces, it was considered satisfactory. He himself barely had enough to eat, let alone having to provide for his wife and children.
“Third Uncle, I think what Sangsang said makes sense. The wood is readily available, and you’re good at making things like stools. Maybe when you sell off an item, people will learn from you and ask you to custom make so larger items. What do you think?”
Lin Changhong agreed.
“What you all are saying makes sense. I’m not saying it’s impossible, it’s just that…to sell goods from village to village we need an ox cart. Are we supposed to rent one?” Lin Baiyi asked them hopelessly.
He thought this thod was quite good and worth a try.
But before doing anything, proper preparation is required, and what his family lacked the most right now was a practical ox cart.
“Well…”
Lin Changhong pursed his lips, glanced at Lin Caisang, then turned back to look at Lin Baiyi.
“Third Uncle, you just start making the goods, leave the matter of the ox cart to . After this market day, I will go up the mountain to hunt more ga to sell. I’ll certainly be able to buy an ox cart.”
“Senior brother is right. As soon as the drugstore opens, I will go and inquire about the prices of the dicinal herbs we dug up. It might also be a way to make money.” Lin Caisang added.
“Yes, yes.” Ms.Lin of Yang Family agreed.
