Zhou Xiaoli did not split the money directly. Instead, she counted out 100 copper coins and handed them to Liu Liangcai. "The cost of buying beetroots this time was paid by Uncle Liu, so I would deduct it from our profits."
"Uncle Liu, here's your 100 copper coins. Take it first."
Then, she said to everyone, "According to the ratio we discussed previously, Uncle Liu and Uncle Village Chief's families will each take 30%. In other words, each family will get 3 taels and 3 copper coins."
As she spoke, she took out three taels and three copper coins and handed them to Liu Liangcai and Zheng Yongfu respectively.
"Please count if it is correct?"
Their hands trembled as they took the money.
They had only worked for three to four days and had earned more than three taels of silver. This was way much more than what they would earn from working for Landlord Wan!
More importantly, they could make a living from selling sugar for a long time.
