Zhang Family was indeed furious.
Why should the idea she herself came up with be pegged on Qiao Xiaomai?
And as for scalping silver, who was doing that? The hard-earned bean sprouts, if a kilogram of soybeans could only make a penny, and she could only make a few pennies a day, less than what Qiao Xiaomai would earn for manual labor, then how was she supposed to run this business?
It seemed like there were many bean sprouts sold in town yesterday, but that was the stock for several days. People bought hundreds of kilograms of bean sprouts at once, it's not like they'd eat them all in one meal.
So calculating it like this, it would take a few days to make a decent amount of silver. After deducting the cost, she would only earn about five hundred pennies in three or four days.
Is this petty cash called scalping?
What a load of bullshit! She ran a legitimate business, see if she wouldn't rip the mouth off the Sun Family for slandering her!
