Rebirth: Back To 1990s

Chapter 22 Eggs In Salt

Celia did not go back home immediately after she left the breakfast shop, but wandered around the town. She kept thinking about what happened just now. The money for only selling eggs was very poor. If she sold eggs 20cents each to the owner, it would only be 10 dollars. If she bought eggs 18 cents each, she would only earn 2 cents for an egg. And the profit for 50 eggs would be 1 dollars. That was too less.

But as the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. She was worried about eggs then. Since they were thrown out by the Tang family, of course, no eggs could be found at home. Therefore, before tomorrow afternoon, she must purchase these 50 eggs, or even more, in order to prepare for the occasional needs.

After another two circles of wandering in the town, Celia came to a department store. She had to bring something back since she came here. She couldn't return without bringing something. Since she had decided to open a small shop in the village, from now on, she had to buy some goods back and forth bit by bit.

The first decision Celia had made was to take some salt back. Salt was essential even for poor families, even though they couldn't afford oil. Thus she bought twenty bags of salt without hesitation. According to retail, such a bag of salt would cost 62 cents per bag. By doing so, Celia would get a discount of 2 cents per bag. They cost 12 dollars in total.

Although the profit of these things seemed to be very small, as long as the market opened, the profit would surely get more and more.

Carrying twenty bags of salt, Celia was full of energy. As long as people were not lazy, they wouldn't starve to death in this age.

After she came back, Celia didn't directly go home. Instead, she took a detour and went to her uncle's house.

"Celia, why do you come here?"

Seeing thin Celia carry a sack, Jane immediately took the bag over. She was more enthusiastic than the last time.

"Auntie, I went shopping today and cut some fresh ribs for you. If cooked with a carrot, it would certainly be more delicious."

Since she had come to her uncle's home, she must bring something with her. Therefore, she had to coax her aunt.

"You silly girl, don't regard your aunt as an outsider. We will buy meat by ourselves if we want to. It is not easy for you and your mother to feed yourselves. Take it back later."

Jane was not an unreasonable woman. She had suffered a lot to support this family all these years. What's more, Wendy had been raising a child. The hardships she had experienced were self-evident. Celia's thoughtfulness made her more distressed.
