The enthusiasm had somewhat diluted in the next two days, but the sales were still quite good.
In just three days, half of the coal in one warehouse was sold, as well as one third of the quilts and winter clothes in the other.
The triple profit made Wei Ruo earn a significant amount of money.
Three days later, the temporary relief facility that Wei Ruo had envisioned was half built. Because of its simple structure, much of the timber used was readily available, and the craftsmen hired were skilled, so it took less time to build.
The structure of the relief station was simple but sturdy, entirely of wood, housing two large stoves, with three of the four walls partitioned with wooden boards and the fourth covered with a cloth curtain.
Once half of it was built, Wei Ruo immediately had people start using the built-in large stove to cook porridge and distribute it to the disaster-stricken people...
In less than half a day, news of the porridge distribution spread around.
