When Zhao Dong was receiving soybeans at the entrance, quite a few villagers gathered around.
Looking at those tofu-selling villagers, they came with soybeans joyfully and left with tofu cheerfully.
Calculating in his heart, he found that buying soybeans and selling tofu could earn over twenty coins a day!
Such a lucrative prospect, how many people could resist it?
Although they couldn't go to the nearby villages, they could go to farther ones. Selling tofu just once a day, they could still make quite a bit.
And so, someone who was tempted approached Zhao Dong.
"Brother Dong, I see you have more people helping with tofu making at home. Why don't you make more? I'm willing to go sell it in farther villages."
Zhao Dong kindly reminded him, "You should think about it. Going farther takes a lot of time; it might not be profitable."
