One silver tael was a substantial figure for Su Wenzhe. In the past, he had worked hard to grow crops for a year, and it would be excellent if he could earn one silver tael.
However, he could earn more than one silver tael daily from selling tofu. Su Wenzhe felt like he was dreaming. Still, he would feel uneasy about spending money because he was too used to being frugal.
Moreover, farmers relied on the weather for their livelihood. Even if they were starting a business or selling tofu, one could not guarantee that the market for tofu would always be good.
With that thought, Su Wenzhe was concerned. He felt he should save as much money as possible and avoid spending it on unnecessary or risky investments.
Of course, it was typical for Su Binglan to sell desserts and open a shop, but if she wanted Su Wenzhe to sell tofu, he would rather set up a stall and sell it that way instead of renting an entire shop.
