Qi Yougui fundamentally disapproved of the idea of peasants engaging in trade, so when he heard that Qi Younian's stall was to expand, with more tables, chairs, and staff, his first reaction was to object, "No way. There's a common saying, 'No business without deceit, no trader without scheming.' Trade isn't meant for us peasants. A small business to make ends meet is one thing, but if we aim bigger and attract attention, how could we possibly outwit those crafty folks in the county?"
Qi Younian felt helpless. His older brother's stubbornness was truly difficult to change.
