Cutting chives, what does that mean?
The people were puzzled upon hearing this seemingly irrelevant remark, and the middle-aged man immediately said, "Think about it, chives in the field are cut in one batch, and when they grow again, they're cut another batch. Isn't it the same with the way they sell medicine?"
"..."
"But, the cut chives can grow on their own, can our money, the common people's money, grow on its own?"
"..."
"Which penny and which cent weren't earned through our hard work, blood, and sweat!"
"..."
"Now, a bowl of medicine costs us a piece of silver, this is more ruthless than cutting chives! Once you make enough money, what will we have left?"
Suddenly, the people were enlightened, even Shang Ruyi was somewhat amazed—this analogy was not only vivid but also instantly made people think of themselves as worthless as weeds!
Truly, what clever thinking!
