Stinky and Chu Tianbao tiptoed into the nursery. It was rare for Tuantuan and Yuanyuan to be awake after drinking milk. The two soft balls were wrapped in swaddling clothes, and their dark round eyes looked around curiously.
Bai Wutong waved at Stinky. “Brother Stinky, come and see Sister Tuantuan and Brother Yuanyuan.”
Stinky carefully walked up to Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao picked him up.
Stinky widened his eyes and couldn’t help but lower his voice in surprise. “Little brother and sister are so small and cute.”
Bai Wutong smiled and said, “Look, Tuantuan is smiling at you.”
Stinky took a closer look. The soft Tuantuan opened her small pink mouth, and Yuanyuan’s eyes narrowed into crescents. It made one’s heart melt.
Stinky smiled like the sun and introduced himself seriously. “Tuantuan, I’m Older Brother.”
Surprisingly, Tuantuan actually howled, as if she was responding to Stinky.
Stinky seemed to have his heart captured by her and said excitedly, “You like me, right? I like you very much too.”
Tuantuan’s reply was an even sweeter smile.
Babies also had their personalities. The elder brother, Yuanyuan, was obviously much more aloof than his younger sister, Tuantuan.
No matter how Stinky greeted him, Yuanyuan remained indifferent. He was so annoyed that he even closed his eyes.
His subtle expression was almost imperceptible, but Bai Wutong, who had transmigrated, sensitively caught it.
She stared at Yuanyuan a few times, then glanced at the happy Tuantuan beside her. She must have thought too much.
Stinky interacted happily with Tuantuan and Yuanyuan. When the two little babies fell asleep, Bai Wutong led him to the study next door to eat snacks.
With Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao by his side, Stinky ate happily.
Bai Wutong stroked his little head. “How many more small houses have you drawn recently?”
At the mention of drawing houses, Stinky’s eyes lit up. “I’ve drawn many different houses for Xiaobai’s entire family!”
Bai Wutong praised him daily. “Our Stinky is really amazing. He will definitely become the greatest architect in the future.”
Stinky looked at them shyly and ran to the desk to quickly draw two more drawings. He placed them in Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao’s hands and said expectantly, “I’ve also drawn a house for my younger siblings.”
Bai Wutong looked at the blueprint in her hand. It was a house made of all kinds of flowers, and the other blueprint was a house made of all kinds of rocks.
She chuckled. “What was the inspiration for Stinky’s design?”
Stinky puffed out his chest and said, “Girls like beautiful flowers, so Tuantuan must like them very much. If she can live in a house filled with flowers, she will definitely be happy every day.”
Bai Wutong looked at the stone house again. “Then what was the inspiration for this house?”
Stinky looked up. “Little Brother Yuanyuan enjoys silence. A house made of stone is the most soundproof.”
Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao looked at each other. “Yes, Tuantuan and Yuanyuan will definitely like the house designed by Brother.”
Stinky smiled even more happily and chattered as he added a lot of things to the blueprint.
For example, the dressing room necessary for girls, the martial arts room that boys liked, and so on.
Just as they were about to send Stinky back, Stinky suddenly said in embarrassment, “Mother, do you know how to earn money?”
Bai Wutong was stunned. “Why do you want to earn money?”
Sheng Huaixuan couldn’t be asking Stinky to earn money at such a young age, right?
Stinky told him that he owed a huge amount of money for roasted chicken.
Bai Wutong chuckled. “I’ll lend it to you. You can return it when you grow up.”
Stinky shook his head firmly. “No, it’s better to teach people how to fish than to help them fish!”
The child was very sensible.
Bai Wutong thought for a moment. “There are a few walnut trees in Mother’s backyard and some vegetables and fruits. There aren’t many people in our residence and we can’t finish them. I’ll give you two choices. One is that you help Mother sell these things and I will give you a salary. The other is that you buy these things back and sell them.” Stinky immediately asked smartly, “How much is the salary?”
Bai Wutong calculated and said, “The harvest time of these fruits and vegetables in our residence will take about a month. If we hire a worker, the monthly salary will only be two taels of silver. If you help me sell these things, I’ll naturally give you two taels of silver.”
Two taels of silver sounded like a lot. It was enough to treat Xiaobai’s entire family to two full meals.
But what if he had to treat Xiaobao more in the future!
Moreover, he was already an elder brother now. If his younger siblings wanted to buy something in the future, but he could not fork out the money, it would be so embarrassing.
Stinky asked again, “If I buy these fruits and vegetables, what price will you charge me?”
Bai Wutong smiled and said, “A quarter of the market price.”
Stinky’s eyes widened. Wasn’t this giving him money for free? He said firmly, “If the price is too high, I won’t be able to accept it easily.”
He looked as shrewd as an adult. He was too cute.
Bai Wutong’s smile deepened. “The price is actually not high. You have to pick the fruits on the tree yourself and process them well. You have to spend a lot of energy and time to transport them to the market to sell them. Moreover, most importantly, if you buy my things, I can receive the money now. If you want to sell them, you’ll still be at risk of not being able to sell them. These are all included in the price.”
With this explanation, Stinky had no objections to the price. He said readily, “Alright, should I count the fruits and vegetables now?”
Bai Wutong smiled and said, “You have to pick them to count them.” Realization dawned on Stinky. He remembered that he didn’t have any money on hand and had to go home and get it. “Then can I come and count it tomorrow?”
Bai Wutong smiled and said, “Of course.”
Stinky was extremely satisfied. When he returned home, he found Sheng Huaixuan. “Father, how can I sell vegetables and fruits at a high price?”
Sheng Huaixuan turned around. “What vegetables and fruits exactly?”
Stinky tried to recall. “Sugar cane, walnuts, dates, corn, potatoes… Uh, there’s a lot more. I can’t remember the names.”
Sheng Huaixuan said seriously, “These are all common fruits and vegetables. Firstly, you have to work hard on the quality, and secondly, you have to work hard on the publicity. Only by doing both can you sell them at a good price.”
“In addition, processing them into luxury food is also one of the ways to sell it at a high price.”
Stinky recalled the fruits and vegetables in the Great Empress’s residence. They were big and fresh. He immediately asked, “Then how should we publicize them?”
His son looked serious, so Sheng Huaixuan also taught him seriously. “Then we have to find the key characteristics of these fruits and vegetables. For example, corn is so sweet that it can be eaten as sweets. Or that these are precious fruits from a thousand-year-old tree that can extend one’s life.”
Stinky scratched his head. “I don’t think corn can be eaten as sweets. The walnuts aren’t fruits from the thousand-year-old tree either. They’re from Mother’s residence. Can’t they be sold at a high price?”
It turned out to be fruits and vegetables from the Great Empress’ residence.
Sheng Huaixuan suddenly smiled and said, “The celebrity effect is also the fastest way to sell at a high price. The fruits and vegetables in the Great Empress Residence arc destined to be extraordinary..”
