Chapter 61: The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching

Views:

In this world, every August 15th, the Mid-Autumn Festival, is still one of the most important festivals.

The Mid-Autumn Festival, which means reunion, is a relatively sensitive day for Li Yi, and it is easy to evoke some dusty memories in his heart.

But now, he already knows how to hide those emotions in his heart, so that they won't be easily seen by others.

Tomorrow is Xiaohuan's long-awaited Mid-Autumn Festival. For a simple-minded girl, every festival is expected a long time ago. After Li Yi taught him how to count, the little maid will count the days with her fingers.

Today, Lao Fang and the others did not go to the street to sell candied haws. It was a festive festival, and they had to take a vacation to relax.

In the past, when the family conditions were poor, every festival, eating a meal of porridge with a handful of rice grains was considered a holiday.

Now a lot of money comes into the account every day, even if I eat rice and meat every day, I don't have any psychological pressure.

The economic base determines the superstructure. When the family situation is better, the pursuit will naturally be higher. When Lao Fang and the others came back from the outside yesterday, they had already bought things like wine and meat to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival celebration.

Li Yi looked at the things they sent over yesterday, and actually saw mooncakes inside. He said they were mooncakes, but they were actually dough with fillings. After picking one up and tasting it, Li Yi immediately missed the taste of the five-nut mooncakes of later generations. .

Walking with Xiaohuan on the wide streets of Qing'an Fucheng, the little maid blinked her curious eyes and looked around, feeling that everything she saw was so strange, but Li Yi was thinking about other things in her heart.

In the past few days, he has exhausted all kinds of methods to improve the device for distilling alcohol, and he has also made great improvements to the formula of toilet water, and it will be officially produced soon.

Toilet water is different from candied haws. Li Yi originally positioned it as a high-end route. After all, the cost of distilling alcohol is not small. It takes several jars of wine to make a small bottle of toilet water. If the price is set cheap, Li Yi will lose money if he doesn’t sell a few bottles died.

And this brings up a new problem.

Since it was decided that toilet water should appear in a high-end image from the very beginning, naturally it can't be like selling candied haws. He said mysteriously: "Brother, do you need Ruyilu?"

In this situation, no matter how I think about it, I feel that there is a feeling of selling pornographic films or Indian oil.

Obviously, roadside stalls are far from being able to meet the strict requirements. If you want to continue the dew business for a long time, you may need to add spirits, perfumes and soaps in the future. It is imperative to have your own shop in Fucheng. Less.

However, renting a shop in the bustling area of Qing'an Fu City is no less difficult than opening a shop in a commercial street in a first-tier city in the later generations. The rent for just one year is sky-high for some people.

Li Yi inquired specifically, even if the shop is not in the most prosperous place in Fucheng, the annual rent is seventy or eighty taels of silver, and a little decoration of the shop under the market will inevitably cost one hundred taels of silver.

This is a very embarrassing thing for Li Yi at present.

His entire net worth is only one hundred taels of silver. If he rented the shop, he would have no money for the materials needed to buy wine and make toilet water.

Lao Fang and the others naturally wouldn't consider these issues. If Li Yi didn't say anything, he might sell toilet water as candied haws. Anyway, in his eyes, these two are treasures that can make money, and there is no big difference.

I can't be in a hurry for the money matter for a while, and I will find a way to solve it after I go back.

Xiaohuan embraced the two bolts of cloth that her uncle bought for her to make new clothes, her eyes were bent into crescent moons, and her little face was full of joy.

In the past, the family didn't have any spare money to buy cloth, and most of the clothes worn by Xiaohuan were worn by Liu Ruyi.

Liu Ruyi's figure is extremely tall, and Xiaohuan can't wear her clothes at all. Liu Ruyi is taller than Xiaohuan, but not too much. Her clothes can be worn by Xiaohuan with a little change.

Except for those rich families, most ordinary people are like this, wearing a piece of clothing in turn. Li Yi also saw that Xiaohuan's clothes had patches, so he brought her out today.

At this time, there are still no ready-made clothing stores. If you want to make clothes, you can either buy a few bolts of cloth and make them yourself, or find a tailor to order. a method.

After learning these things, Li Yi was a little tempted.

If you open a clothing store here, will you make a lot of money

Of course, at present, he can only think about it. Right now, he still has a lot of things to do, and he doesn't have the energy to take care of more things at all.

When it was almost noon, He Xiaohuan randomly found a roadside stall to eat something. Not to mention, although the food on the roadside didn't look that fancy, it tasted good and the price was very cheap .

Now it is no better than later generations. You don’t have to worry about gutter oil when eating at roadside stalls. There are more guests next to you.

In this way, he felt a little relieved. After all, he used to be, but he never thought that one day he would be able to take advantage of his appearance.

After eating, I went shopping on the street for a while and bought some things. Because the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, there were many more people on the street than usual.

I have to say that the quality of beauties in ancient times was really good. In this era when you can't pull your eyelids, pad your nose and shave your chin, all beauties are pure natural, with light makeup and plain makeup. Li Yi saw a lot along the way. If it is placed in later generations, it will be able to support a stage of costume drama alone without changing clothes.

Of course, my little maid is also considered a little beauty. Although she is a little younger and has a little baby fat on her face, she will definitely be a beauty embryo again after a few years of growth.

Li Yi's resistance to beautiful women is much stronger now than in his previous life.

The three beauties in the family dangled in front of his eyes all day long, which directly led to a significant increase in Li Yi's immunity to beauties. Even if he met a beautiful woman on the street, he would just glance at it with admiring eyes and turn to look at it... other beauties...

When passing by somewhere on the street, he saw a group of people around there, who were noisy and didn't know what they were doing. Li Yi didn't want to watch the excitement, but Xiaohuan looked in that direction curiously, but saw Li Yi He walked straight past, hurriedly looked away, and quickly followed.

"Actually willing to take out a hundred taels of silver..."

"This is a bit too generous..."
