Lin Xia and Lin Qiu had tidied up their home, and when Lin Xia found herself with some free time, she couldn't help but muse over her eager desire to restock goods from the provincial capital. However, she now had less than a hundred yuan left in her pocket.
The amount of goods she could stock up on with that money was limited! And she didn't know when she would be able to go next!
A silk scarf would cost two yuan and fifty cents. She calculated the money in her pocket and, after deducting the round-trip train fare, could only buy thirty scarves.
If she were to make a profit of fifty cents per scarf, she would earn fifteen yuan. After subtracting the seven yuan train fare, she would only make eight yuan.
Lin Xia wondered what else she could take to the provincial city to sell so she could afford more goods.
There was definitely no time to acquire anything new; she decided to check the stock in Jade's room instead.
