Chapter 178 - Chapter 90 Drying Ginseng

Yue Siyuan talked with Jinghan for a long time, and then Jinghan also agreed to sell the cocoons to Yue Siyuan. Although the silkworm pupae inside were good for nourishing the body, no one could eat so much at once, so the value of the silkworm pupae could be temporarily ignored for the moment. The price offered by Yue Siyuan was 10 coins per pound of cocoons, and there were nearly 2,000 pounds of cocoons at home, which meant they could sell them for about 20 taels of silver. Jinghan did some calculations and found it to be a fair deal. They hadn't incurred any other expenses, just some firewood for heating during the initial hatching, and the rest of the time was spent looking after them by the girls for around fifty days. Selling them for 20 taels of silver was indeed not bad.
