After calculating, if Mrs. Zhu's house could be sold for 120 taels, then they would still be short by 120 taels of silver. How could they come up with this 120 taels? It was indeed quite worrying.
Mrs. Chen thought for a moment, "Let's sell the sheep we bought. Hui Xin has already been married off, it was originally meant for her, but she lives in town and has no place to gather grass. We spent five taels of silver on that sheep when we bought it, and it should still sell for that much now. Additionally, let's sell the land; our family has a total of fifteen acres, and currently, an acre can sell for eight to ten taels of silver, so we wouldn't fall short by much. The ginseng cannot be sold; it is our foundation. If we really aren't enough, then let's sell the house as well, our house should be worth about 20 to 30 taels."
