The next day, just as dawn was breaking...

Su Mo got out of bed early and sneaked out before anyone in the yard woke up.

The reason she got up so early was that she planned to go to Old Su's courtyard to stock up on more goods.

Therefore, taking advantage of the market day today, the Lin couple can go to the city to sell more candied hawthorns, so that they can recoup their investment sooner.

Although Wang Guihua was currently angry with Su Mo and hadn't had a chance to ask Su Mo for the betrothal money she had given to Su Feng's family a few days ago, it was uncertain when Wang Guihua would change her mind. If Su Mo couldn't come up with the money when she asked for it back, then she wouldn't be able to say anything.

Lin was still helping to skewer the candied hawthorns, Su Mo was boiling the sugar and dipping them in it, and Su Qingsong also came over to help after he woke up. The main reason was that the candied hawthorns yesterday were so delicious that he wanted another skewer today.

The group quickly finished their work, making fifty skewers in one go. Lin was overjoyed as she counted them. If all fifty skewers were sold, she would receive one hundred wen of silver, something she would never have dared to dream of under normal circumstances.

Su Congxian got up and prepared everything, then hurriedly urged Lin Shi to go with him to catch Uncle Niu's oxcart.

The two, carrying the candied hawthorns they had made, arrived at the village entrance and happened to run into Su Banxia and her group while riding in an oxcart.

Seeing this, Erzhuzi hurriedly spoke in surprise:

"Why are you selling candied hawthorns now?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Lin glared at Erzhuzi with displeasure.

"Why is it that only you can sell candied hawthorns and no one else is allowed to? It's the season for them, so of course we have to start selling candied hawthorns!"

Su Banxia sneered upon hearing this.

"I never knew you had such a business mind, Auntie. Why didn't I see you making candied hawthorns to sell at the market a few years ago?"

Upon hearing this, Lin's expression stiffened.

"What are you saying? I can sell whenever I want. Besides, I told you before that you should call me when you have business, but you didn't listen. So don't blame me for being ruthless!"

With that, Lin got directly onto the oxcart.

“If I hadn’t wanted to separate from your grandmother as soon as possible, I wouldn’t be in such a hurry to earn money. Banxia, ​​don’t blame your third aunt for being heartless.”

Upon hearing this, Su Congxian slapped his thigh.

"What does our selling of candied hawthorns have to do with her? Why are you talking to her about this? Does she mean that if she's in business, no one else is allowed to do it?"

Su Banxia sneered upon hearing this.

“My third uncle is right. Everyone should do their own business. There’s no need for him to tell me all this.”

After saying that, he turned his head away and stopped looking at them.

Once the group arrived at the market, Su Banxia began to call out her wares.

"Candied hawthorns, candied hawthorns, don't miss out! Ten coins a skewer, ten coins a skewer, incredibly delicious!"

Seeing this, Lin, who was standing nearby, also started shouting.

"Candied hawthorn, candied hawthorn, super delicious candied hawthorn, eight coins a skewer, eight coins a skewer, come and buy, come and see!"

A little boy rushed over, tugged at his mother's clothes, and pleaded:

"Hello, I want to eat candied hawthorn. Please buy me just one skewer, please."

The little boy's mother, having no other choice, had to look at the two stalls selling candied hawthorns one by one. Seeing that Lin's stall only sold them for eight coins, while Su Banxia's stall sold them for ten coins, she walked up to Lin's stall without hesitation and bought a string of candied hawthorns.

Mrs. Lin greeted him happily, accepted the money, and handed the candied hawthorn to the little boy.

Then he looked at Su Banxia and said in a sarcastic tone:

"See? Your third auntie is good at everything. We've already made a profit. You can't beat me at all. You'd better pack your things and go home."

Seeing this, Su Banxia snorted coldly, ignored Lin Shi, picked up her straw saddle, and went straight to the market to sell candied hawthorns.

She really hadn't expected that the Lin family could imitate her candied hawthorns so well, and even sell them for a lower price. However, Su Banxia didn't want to lower the price so easily.

If she were to suddenly lower the price now, wouldn't all the people who bought her candied hawthorns before come looking for her?

This would lead to vicious competition among peers, with some deliberately offering low prices to attract customers, only to suffer losses in the end. Su Banxia would never do something so self-defeating.

However, they prepared three hundred skewers of candied hawthorns today, and Erzhuzi and Gousheng both went to other streets to sell them.

Su Banxia was alone at the market entrance. Wei Kezhi hadn't come down the mountain for several days. Su Banxia had originally planned to go up the mountain to see Wei Kezhi after she finished selling her candied hawthorns today.

But now it seems she doesn't have time to deal with him. Although Su Banxia doesn't say anything, she's still quite annoyed by Lin's outburst.

So Su Banxia plans to go back this afternoon and start researching new varieties. After all, the cherry tomatoes and grapes in her space are ripe and can be used to make new candied hawthorn skewers.

Therefore, Su Banxia was not worried about Lin's low-price sales and deliberately stealing her customers. She was sure that when she brought her new candied hawthorns to sell tomorrow, there would be people willing to pay for good products.

After all, families who are willing to give their children candied hawthorns wouldn't be short of a couple of coins.

Su Banxia had already secured a few regular customers in the alley. Seeing that Su Banxia's business was doing well, Lin rushed over and stood beside Su Banxia, ​​calling out to her customers.

"I have these for eight coins a string, eight coins a string! Come buy mine, they're all the same stuff!"

Several of Su Banxia's long-time clients, seeing this, spoke up disdainfully:

"We've never tried yours, so how would we know if it's good or not? We eat this girl's all the time. Every time she comes, we buy a few skewers to try. It's really delicious. No other place sells it as good as hers."

"That's right. Besides, if we're just a few coins short and end up buying something that doesn't taste good, wouldn't that be even worse?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Lin quickly spoke up:

"What are you saying? How could it not taste good? Aren't they all candied hawthorns? What's the difference? If you're not going to eat it, then leave quickly and don't delay my business!"

"Hey, you! You have a business like this? I've never seen anyone rush customers away like this!"

"You're not my guest, why should I treat you with respect!"

Lin glared at the person who had spoken and said impatiently.

The man flicked his sleeve,

"Great! Let's see who will buy your stuff from now on!"

After saying that, the man left angrily.

Lin cursed as she watched the man's retreating figure:

"You're showing off, showing off your gluttony. You don't care about a couple of coins. I think you're just wasting money and willing to be a sucker!"

As she spoke, Lin glanced at Su Banxia and began to shout at the top of her lungs.

"Buy mine, buy mine! Mine are cheap and delicious!"
