Chapter 237: It’s Time to Show Your True Strength
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Most of the rice fields belonged to the 30 families of Qinghe. It was also the suggestion of Bai Wutong to raise fish in the rice fields.
Everyone immediately approved of the autumn harvest event.
The fish and crabs in the field were also worth some money. It would not make them lose money just because Bai Wutong wanted to organize an event.
Bai Wutong was not short of money now. After calculating the approximate value of every acre of crab, rice, and fish, she converted it to silver and gave them to everyone.
Madam Cui was the first to refuse. “Madam Bai, you’re too polite. We’re all from the same village. It’s not easy for us to reap a harvest. We also want to have some fun. How can we accept your money?”
Bai Wutong shook her head. “If Madam Cui doesn’t accept it, the other villagers won’t dare to accept it even if they want to. I think we should forget about this event then.”
Hearing that, Madam Cui could only accept it. “Madam paid for the rice fields, fish, and crabs. I’ll pay for the prizes.’
Bai Wutong smiled and said, “Old Master Sheng and I have already decided on the prize.”
Madam Cui smiled and said, “Madam Bai is so meticulous in everything. The event must be very interesting. I’ll let Muzhi partic.i.p.ate too.”
Bai Wutong nodded. “Muzhi is quick-witted. He u?ll definitely be able to win the prize.”
Madam Cui said humbly, “With Master Chu partic.i.p.ating, I’ll be surprised if he could catch even a few fishes.”
The scene of Chu Tianbao catching fishes in frozen water left a deep Impression on everyone.
When he made a move, no one really could compete u?th him.
However, Bai Wutong had already thought about it.
When Chu Tianbao, Qingfeng, and the others ?? knew martial arts partic.i.p.ated in the autumn harvest event, they were not allowed to use their internal energy, so everyone could rely on their one abilities to catch fish and crabs.
There were two partic.i.p.ating options for the autumn harvest event: individual and pair.
The partic.i.p.ants in the individual group would catch fishes and throw them into a fish basket. When the time was up, the total weight was calculated, and everyone would be ranked accordingly.
In the pair segment, one would hold the basket, and the other would catch the fish. All the partic.i.p.ants could s.n.a.t.c.h the other team’s fish, so the pair would need to cooperate and guard the fish basket until the time is up to determine the overall ranking.
The rewards were especially generous. The first place could obtain an exquisite pair of mandarin duck jade pendants, the second place could obtain a set of eight golden crabs, and the third place could obtain a pure silver coin storage jar.
Those who were in the top 10 would receive a gift bag worth two taels of silver.
With such a generous reward, everyone naturally fought to take part.
There was no restriction on men and women. One could partic.i.p.ate after signing up and paying a tael of silver.
One tael of silver was not much. Even if they could not get the prize, they could take back the fish they caught to share their joy.
Besides, what if they won a prize!
The Qinghe students found it interesting and signed up.
Some people had signed up for both the individual and pair segment, so it cost two taels of silver.
Just from the registration fees paid by everyone, the cost of the prizes were already recouped.
Sheng Huaixuan set up the venue and the most suitable place to watch People could enter the venue and watch u?thout charge. Snacks and tea were also being sold.
It was rare for everyone to have a chance to join such a crowded event. It felt worth it to spend on snacks and tea.
In addition, Sheng Huaixuan asked Bai Wutong to design and specially made a batch of autumn harvest fish pendants, small fish dolls, big crab windmills , and other exquisite souvenirs.
When the children saw it, their eyes could not move away at all. Even the adults had never seen such a cute toy.
Sheng Huaixuan was someone who had great plans. He had even invited a gourmet vendor to the venue and promised that he would provide a refund if the vendor could not earn any money that day. Whereas, he happily collected the stall fees.
With everything prepared, Sheng Huaixuan made use of the celebrity effect to publicize that Lord Yang would come to Youjia Village to partic.i.p.ate in an unprecedentedly grand autumn harvest celebration. Soon, it attracted the big families and commoners of Woqian Town to come and watch the autumn harvest event.
Sheng Huaixuan had used his celebrity effect too well. It was just a small autumn harvest event, but he had made it even grander than the annual temple fair.
However, everyone was happy to be able to join in the fun just nearby.
Moreover, Sheng Huaixuan had paid a high venue fee to Youjia Village. It was specially kept by Cui s.h.i.+ze for the expenses of Youjia Village in the future.
Little Cat was punished by Mr. Liu and no longer received study allowance. He did not tell Tao Yinzhen and chose to quietly earn money himself to make up for the two taels of silver next semester.
There were many exquisite stationery in the top ten gift bags.
There were watercolor pens, automatic charcoal pens , carbon paper picture books, solid paint, cartoon erasers, and so on.
Sheng Huaixuan used the gift bag as one of the prizes because he wanted to take the opportunity to promote and sell these cute, exquisite , and practical stationery.
The richest people in town were the consumers he had targeted.
When Little Cat discovered that Youjia villagers were secretly producing literary and ink supplies, he thought of the cleaning paper, spray machine , cus.h.i.+oned stool and Phoenix Feather wine... All of them were popular by the market udlen people saw them
Little Cat decisively found Yu Suisheng and took the initiative to help him sell the literary and ink supplies.
Yu Suisheng stared at the dark and thin little radish head in front of him with interest. “Little kid, how are you intending to sell? How many can you sell?
How much money do you have to buy it?”
Little Cat hid his nervousness and pretended to be calm. “I’ll rent a stall and show off the advantages of watercolor brushes and carbon paper paintings. As long as everyone has seen them and heard my detailed introduction, they will definitely buy them! ”
“Also, shouldn’t you have taken the initiative to quote the price before you asked me how much money I had to stock up?”
Yu Suisheng admired this calmness that far exceeded his peers.
However, Sheng Huaixuan had long prepared this stall and would place it in the most conspicuous spot in Youjia Village.
There was no need for Little Cat to help with the sales.
Yu Suisheng still went to report to Sheng Huaixuan because he saw his past self on this stubborn child’s face.
When Sheng Huaixuan heard Yu Suisheng’s report, he raised his eyebrows. After a while, he said, “Since he’s confident that he can make the customer buy, let him try at the stall and give him a 30% commission.”
The shop a.s.sistants were given at most 20% commission, but Sheng Huaixuan actually gave 30% commission to Little Cat. He was really taking too much care of him. It was not like Sheng Huaixuan’s style at all, which surprised Yu Suisheng.
There were many smart and pitiful children in the world. Sheng Huaixuan was just doing this for the sake of Bai Wutong.
When Little Cat found out that he did not have to spend money to rent a stall or buy goods, and he could earn money from the commission, his eyes started to form ripples.
He clenched his fists and bowed deeply to Yu Suisheng. I will definitely work hard!”
Yu Suisheng smiled and patted the top of his head. “Good luck!”
The registration for the autumn fis.h.i.+ng event ended that morning.
Huang Thong knew that he definitely wouldn’t be able to get into the top three , but he really wanted Chu Tianbao’s watercolor brush, so he begged his uncle , Ye Wu, to partic.i.p.ate in the pair segment.
“Uncle, let’s register too! I’m very good at catching fis.h.!.+”
“Someone who studies is indeed good at lying! You can’t even hold a chicken steadily and you still want to get a prize? Save your breath!” Ye Wu said bluntly.
Huang Thong ma.s.saged Ye Wu’s back and shoulders. “I’m useless. But don’t I have an imposing and extraordinary uncle?! Uncle definitely succeed!
Hehe
“When Aunt sees your heroic skills, she will definitely admire you even more. Doudou and Sweetie will be proud if they know that their father is so powerful!”
“It’s a pity if Uncle doesn’t partic.i.p.ate. We can clearly get the prize!”
He was full of flattery that his mouth was dry from talking, but Ye Wu was overjoyed. He finally nodded reluctantly. “Alright, it’s time to show your uncle’s true strength!”
