章 101: Chapter 101: Labor (Part 2, asking for monthly votes)

"If we suddenly need forty more catties of tofu, other areas will have to give up some. Most of them, too, had agreed to set amounts previously. If we provide less than promised all of a sudden, it might not be easy for us to explain," said Dong Dazhu awkwardly, while rubbing his hands.

"We did not anticipate that there would be such a high demand for tofu at the restaurant. Once the tofu dishes are on the tables, they are devoured instantly. The shop managers also wanted to take some home for personal use. Suddenly we found ourselves short of tofu. Initially, we considered asking each household to provide twenty more catties of tofu, which would make it an extra 80 catties in total. But we decided that placing such a large and sudden order might be difficult for you, Miss Zhuang. So we thought it might be better to ask each household for an extra ten catties first."
