Mrs. Song thought for a moment and said, "Sell it. I think peppermint oil can make a long-term business."
Peppermint oil has a refreshing effect and is very helpful for readers.
It also prevents mosquito bites and smells pretty good.
Mainly because Mr. Song likes the taste.
Mrs. Song asked Dazhu: "Do many classmates want it?"
Dazhu nodded: "Yes, many people asked."
Mrs. Song smiled and said, "Then we have to charge more money."
"There are many people, but you can't give it to everyone. If you give it to one or two people, they will be happy and grateful.
But if you send a hundred people as gifts, they will think you are stupid, weak, and easy to bully."
"Even if you don't give it to someone, you might offend someone.
They will say, so many people have given it away, why not me? Do you look down on me?"
"So I feel that regardless of whether your classmates are rich or poor, charging 10% less than the fixed price can be regarded as fulfilling the friendship of classmates."
"Of course, if you have good character and close relationship, you can also give two bottles as a gift."
Dazhu and Erwang nodded repeatedly, and Li Xiaomian also fell to the ground in admiration.
Look, you don’t have to give random instructions, your mother can handle it clearly.
Ignoring the fact that my mother overprotects her shortcomings, she actually has a clear mind, a good grasp of the overall situation, and a very understanding of the world.
An old house where a treasure.
Of course, my mother is still very young, but she is really like a shining treasure.
With such a transparent mother, Xiao Mian felt much more relaxed.
I decided to buy and sell peppermint oil, but the problem came again.
What kind of container is used to store peppermint oil? You can't just scoop it out and sell it by the spoonful, right?
Jade bottles are too expensive and clay pots are too big. Glass bottles are best.
Li Xiaomian thought about the glass business again.
Thinking of Lie Yan, who is the young master of the Protectorate, his thighs are quite thick.
I would like to take the time to ask Lie Yan if he can give this business to him.
Finally, Li Benshan thought of bamboo.
Find a thin bamboo tube, cut it into small sections, put a cork in it, it will be just right for use.
Peppermint oil became profitable. Da Mai and Xiao Dao learned from one another and came up with the idea of fragrant dew.
There are also two more sets of distilling tools at home.
The sisters were busy refining flower dew and had no time to pick flowers.
So I followed the example of adults and started spending money to buy.
Li Benshan helped Song and Li buy mint, and Xiao Sanshun was recruited by the sisters to help collect flowers.
Little Douding is four and a half years old and can't count yet, but he knows that a basket of flower petals will cost him two cents.
The little guy was holding a cloth bag and sitting at the door eating snacks.
The snacks were bought by the eldest sister as wages for Sanshun.
I am a responsible person, so Xiao Sanshun was very happy with this job.
"Sister Lotus, your basket is not full. If you give me another one of your buns, I will give you two cents."
"Third aunt, the flowers in your basket are not clean. There are many other flower petals mixed with them. If you help me carry some wild fruits, I will give you two pence for this basket."
Xiao Douding was openly accepting bribes and was very busy.
The whole family is busy making money to become well-off, but Xiaomian is the only one sitting in the space in a daze.
Unexpectedly, the elixir furnace where all the elixirs were refined was on strike.
The alchemy furnace was burned with charcoal fire for a day, but even the temperature did not change.
Xiao Mian knew that she had overlooked the material of the alchemy furnace.
The alchemy furnace in the world of immortality, which cannot be burned by either heavenly fire or earthly fire, can be controlled by mortal charcoal fire?
It seems that if you want to use the alchemy furnace, you must at least have at least the fifth level of Qi training.
Without the support of the alchemy furnace, Xiao Mian felt that her road to refining pills had become much longer.
Iron pots cannot be used, as many herbal medicines will be affected by the use of iron pots.
It seems that I need to buy a few refractory clay pots.
Just when Xiaomian was worried about refining the pills, Damai and Xiaodao were already selling flower dew.
Unconsciously, the early autumn nights are getting longer, and the breeze is becoming more and more desolate. The scorching heat has retreated, and the house is quiet, and there is dew on the bushes under the steps.
In the midst of my busy schedule, the Mid-Autumn Festival arrived unknowingly.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is also spent in a busy way. Who makes the whole family take advantage of money?
The autumn harvest will start in ten days, so I want to take advantage of these few days to make peppermint oil and flower dew.
On August 20th, people in the village have begun to harvest the autumn harvest.
The next day, Xiaomian's family finally packed up their sickles and adzes and drove the ox cart to the fields.
Lunch was eaten in the field.
Pickles, white flour cakes, and white rice porridge.
In the past, these expensive foods could only be enjoyed by the third uncle Li Xiang.
Xiaodao drank the white porridge with satisfaction and kept saying "ahhhh".
After taking a sip, she said "ah" and looked like she was enjoying it.
Xiao Mian smiled and said, "Look at your future."
Xiao Sanshun also followed suit. After taking a bite of the pancake, he said "Ah", "It's so delicious."
Just as the siblings were having fun playing tricks, Damai suddenly pointed to the road, "Second uncle, do you think that's the Lian Zhi from my grandfather's family?"
Xiao Mian also turned around and looked, and it turned out to be Lian Zhi.
She was leading a man along the border.
"It's Guisheng." Li Benshan put down the cake and stood up.
As soon as Guisheng saw Li Benshan, he hurriedly said: "Second brother, what's the matter? Don't I work part-time at our house every year when I'm busy harvesting?"
But it’s this time of year, and my uncle didn’t even say hello.
I don’t know if my uncle still needs me. If he doesn’t, I will have to take over other jobs.”
Every year, the old man would make a reservation in advance.
But this year, he waited around and saw no one, so he thought of coming over to have a chat.
He first went to the Li family's fields to take a look, thinking that if someone was harvesting, it might be Old Man Li who had changed to a part-time job.
I don’t want to feel uncomfortable at home anymore.
When he saw it in the field, he couldn't help but frown.
It’s not that someone harvests it, but that the farmers are all ripe, and if they don’t harvest the millet, they will lose it.
The farmers feel sorry for the farmers, and even if it is not their own, they are not willing to throw it away.
He hurried to the Li family's old house, but heard the maid say that the old man was not there.
The owner is not here and the banker can't wait any longer.
The servant could not be the master, so Guisheng came to see Li Benshan.
You are his son, you have the final say.
When Li Benshan heard this, he also frowned.
It is said that the third brother has finished the exam by this time, why hasn't dad come back yet?
Did something happen on the road?
Li Benshan looked at Ms. Song and said, "Sister-in-law, let me go over and take a look."
Ms. Song nodded, "Okay, you go ahead. Once the banker is familiar with it, it's time to take it in and out. Let's get into the position first.
We are busy here, so don't worry about it."
Li Benshan followed Guisheng and left in a hurry.
Lian Zhi stayed and wanted to help.
Mrs. Song said: "You are not needed here. You go back and tidy up the warehouse, and wait until the grain is dry to be put into the warehouse."
Lian Zhi lowered his head and muttered: "The warehouse is locked."
The warehouse is not only locked, but also has two additional locks.
At home, only the kitchen and the back room where I live are unlocked.
The rations left by Mrs. Zhao have long been eaten.
These days, she secretly picked some flowers and asked the girl next door to send them to Xiao Mian's house in exchange for a few copper coins to make a living.
She was embarrassed to sell flowers by herself. After all, the owner of the house to the east was also her own.
She was too embarrassed to go over and ask for food. After all, she was not a slave to the family in the east.
Although the relationship is a bit convoluted, Lian Zhi himself is very transparent and has a good sense of proportion.
