Chapitre 152: Give Before You Can Receive

On the Moon Goddess Festival, the Qiao family was packed with people. When Qiao Mai returned from the Capital, she brought back a whole cartload of fruits, which sold out quickly.

Strawberries were ten taels per pound. The wealthy didn't even blink before buying them. Watermelons were eight hundred coins each, and nobody haggled. The fruits were not cheap, but the shelves were empty by nightfall.

Even the bowls used to serve small snacks were cleaned out.

Shopkeeper Niu calculated the earnings for the day. They had made eight hundred taels of silver, mostly coming from the strawberries.

Good things sell well. The money from the wealthy flowed like a strong wind. They bought whatever they fancied, truly enviable.

In the evening, the Qiao family set up several tables – one for the family and three for the servants. The dishes on each table were identical, and everyone celebrated together with great joy.
