บท 996: Chapter 996 Discontent_1

Tong Dalang, who felt deeply wronged, brought up the issue during dinner with Tong Tiehu.

Today, he had encountered a bicycle and even rode it for a while. It was easy to learn; one leg on the pedal, the other pushing off the ground, and he managed to balance after just a couple of circles.

It was simple to learn and lightweight. He realized profoundly that if these were to be sold, it would cause quite a stir.

At the price of one tael silver per bicycle, this might be unaffordable for impoverished families, who wouldn't be willing to buy one, but in Anping Village, this wasn't a problem.

Previously, building a heated brick bed for someone outside of the village would earn at least ten taels silver, if not more.

The market of Huai'an County, including Bailu Town, was entirely theirs; the quick and clever ones even managed to earn nearly a hundred taels silver.

With so much silver, spending one tael to buy a bicycle was completely reasonable.
