The second piece of good news came during the final days of July: the profit share from Hundred Herbs Hall for the Xiao Family Medicine Hall had arrived.
A total of 33,000 silver's worth of tea drinks were sold. After deducting costs and applying the fifty-percent profit share, the Xiao Family earned a profit of 14,000 silver.
Wang Ji said that when Xiao Wan'er saw the silver notes, she was stunned for a moment and asked with a strange expression if the calculations were wrong.
Apparently, she wasn't surprised by the amount of money, but by how incredibly low the cost of the tea drinks was.
Chen Yi, however, thought nothing of it.
If not for his fear of scaring Xiao Wan'er and the Xiao Family, that cost could have been slashed by another four thousand-some silver coins.
That's right. For over thirty thousand silver's worth of tea drinks sold, the production cost was less than one thousand silver.
Five hundred and thirty-two silver, to be exact.
