With the experience from her last trip to the town to sell goods, Yu Songyu was no longer in a hurry this time. After having lunch, she set off with Xu Zhuzhen, riding on the Ox Cart to the town.
They found a secluded spot to take the goods out from their space and loaded them onto the Ox Cart. Yu Songyu and her companion returned to the street where they had sold their goods last time, waiting for the workers to finish their shifts.
"Wow, these gloves look really nice! How much do they cost?" Uncle Bull Cart stared at a pair of deep brown leather gloves, clearly intrigued.
"Do you want them, Uncle?"
"My daughter-in-law always has cold hands and feet in winter; they’re not very useful," he replied, a bit embarrassed, his face turning red.
"Five dollars!" Yu Songyu said, intentionally offering a lower price when she actually planned to sell them for six.
"What? So expensive!" Uncle Bull Cart exclaimed. While he could afford it, as a farmer who worked hard in the fields year-round, parting with that much money for a pair of gloves felt like cutting into his flesh.
"I’ll give them to you. Just take them home for Aunt Wang!"
"What? How can that be?" Uncle Bull Cart was stunned. Such an expensive item, and this girl was just giving it away?
"Of course! Why not?" Yu Songyu replied casually.
"But this is so costly. You can't just give it to me for free," he protested, feeling uncomfortable about accepting such a generous offer.
"It’s not entirely free. Just promise me that if anyone in the village needs an Ox Cart in the future, I get priority!" Yu Songyu said as she took the gloves from the Ox Cart and shoved them into Uncle Bull Cart's hands.
"That's settled then!"
Even without the gloves, Uncle Bull Cart would still prioritize Yu Songyu. After all, there were few people from the village going to the town, and Yu Songyu was a big customer for him. The last time she brought money back home, his Daughter-in-law was thrilled and praised him for it.
Oh, isn't that the girl who sells gloves?
Since the last batch of gloves was snatched up, these few female workers had been eagerly waiting for Yu Songyu to come back.
Excitedly, several girls ran towards Yu Songyu's stall. Some who didn't know what was happening followed along out of curiosity.
"You finally came! Do you have any stock this time?"
"Yes, I have plenty of new items!"
Yu Songyu greeted them warmly, pouring the gloves and socks from her bag onto the Ox Cart, allowing them to choose freely.
"Oh my, there are so many socks! Wow, look at this embroidery! I've never seen anything like this before!"
"There are so many colors! These patterns are beautiful!"
"How much are these socks?"
Someone couldn't help but ask for the price.
"One dollar fifty a pair, regardless of style or gender—it's all one dollar fifty!"
At first, the girls were somewhat restrained, thinking that with so many styles and such beautiful colors, these socks must be expensive since they had never seen anything like them before.
However, upon hearing Yu Songyu say one dollar fifty a pair, they realized that while it wasn't exactly cheap, compared to the polyester socks from Supply and Marketing, these were definitely worth it—and the prices were the same.
