Su Liuxing hurried back to the small courtyard in Bei'aozi, and ran into the house and closed the door, leaving Chen and Su Xiao looking at each other.
"What's wrong with your sister?" Mrs. Chen took a while to find her voice and looked at Su Xiao and the others and asked.
"I didn't know, she has been in a daze ever since she came back from the boxing gifts, and she smiled stupidly." Su Xiao blinked her eyes and said, "I don't know what she is enjoying. Anyone who doesn't know thinks she is picking up money. It’s over!”
Chen Ye pursed his lips and said, "I also saw Sister Liu'er talking alone."
Mrs. Chen was so frightened that she turned blue when she heard this, and asked quickly: "Really?"
Chen Ye nodded, tilted his head and said, "But I didn't hear what she was saying."
The worry in Mrs. Chen's eyes became even more intense. Seeing that the two children were also a little worried after being infected by her, she forced a smile and said: "I'm afraid I have some ideas, so go wash your face and rest for a while."
"Well, ma'am, I'll go pick up firewood later." Chen Ye agreed obediently.
He has been here for a few days, and is now slowly integrating into this family. However, Xu is still in Xiaozhong, and he doesn't smile much. If Su Xiao doesn't tease him, he can just work and not talk.
"It's not a rush, you can play with Xiaoxiao for a while before you go." Chen Ye's well-behavedness made Mrs. Chen very happy. Because his surname was similar to her own, and she felt sorry for him because he lost his mother at such a young age, she treated him as him. He is raised like a child and not treated as a servant.
"I won't play with him. I'm going to plant vegetables in the vegetable garden." Su Xiao sneered, stuck out her tongue and ran away.
"Xiaoxiao, you wait for me, I'll go too." Chen Ye saw Su Xiao running away and hurriedly followed him. Compared to Su Liu who acted like an adult, he was more compatible with Su Xiao who was almost the same age. .
Mrs. Chen smiled as she watched the two of them run away. When she turned around, she saw the closed door and frowned again.
What happened to this child?
Until it was completely dark, Su Liu didn't come out. Chen and the others all stood outside waiting, very anxious.
"Uncle is here." Chen Ye ran in panting.
Seeing that Su Liu didn't come out, Chen became anxious and asked Chen Ye to call Ning Guang.
"Ning Guang, Liu Er..." Seeing Ning Guang walking in like a meteor, Chen's eyes were a little red, as if he had found a backbone.
"Auntie, don't worry." Ning Guang comforted quietly, looking at the closed door, frowning, clenching his fist and punching it: "Su Liu, open the door for me."
There was still no response from inside the room. Ning Guang's face sank, and he was just thinking about kicking the door open, when the door opened with a creak.
"It's done, it's done."
Su Liu held up a piece of paper, her little face was excited, she was jumping and screaming.
Ning Guang and the others all frowned and looked at Su Liu as if they were a fool.
"Uh, what's wrong with you?" Su Liu finally noticed something was wrong and carefully looked at the faces of Ning Guang and others.
"You kid, why did you lock yourself in there? You didn't respond to calls and didn't open the door." Mrs. Chen pulled her over and patted her arm lightly, her voice choked with sobs.
"No, sister, you scared us to death." Su Xiaoye pouted.
Su Liu squeaked and said stupidly: "Are you calling me again?"
She didn't say anything. As soon as she said it, Su Xiao immediately jumped up and shouted: "Sister!"
"Okay, it's my fault, I'm wrong, wasn't I focusing on doing things?" Su Liu took out his ears and muttered. This girl's voice is really loud.
"Sister, I can hear what you said." Su Xiao narrowed her eyes and said.
Su Liu chuckled and hurriedly changed the subject: "Let's prepare the meal. I have something good to tell everyone. Let's chat while we eat."
Halfway through the meal, Su Liu smiled and said before Su Xiao and the others asked, "Today, I thought of a way to make a fortune."
Make a fortune?
Su Xiao and the others looked at each other.
"Donkey-hide gelatin, we make donkey-hide gelatin and sell it ourselves." Su Liu said proudly.
As soon as these words were spoken, the room became eerily quiet, with four people and eight eyes all looking at Su Liu.
"Liu'er, the donkey-hide gelatin you are talking about is the one sold in medical clinics?" Mrs. Chen asked as if she didn't believe it. When Su Liu nodded, she ouched, quickly put down her rice bowl, and reached out to touch Su Liu's forehead: " Liu'er, what's wrong with you? But you have a fever?"
It’s not surprising that Mrs. Chen had such a reaction, it was because Su Liu’s words were too unbelievable. Although she had never eaten donkey-hide gelatin, she had heard of such things. It was really a valuable medicine. For people like them, I’m afraid I can't afford it for the rest of my life.
But what did Su Liu say now? She said she wanted to make donkey-hide gelatin by herself. Let alone making it, she had never seen donkey-hide gelatin before. If she had never seen it, how could she make it?
Therefore, Mrs. Chen directly thought that Su Liu was ill, and he was very ill.
Su Liu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He pulled down Mrs. Chen's hand and said with a wry smile: "Mom, I'm doing well. There's nothing wrong with me."
"My son, how can you make donkey-hide gelatin?"
"So, am I not making a calculation?" Su Liu raised the paper in his hand and said, "I once saw a book written by Sun Xiucai on how to make donkey-hide gelatin. I was curious at the time, so I wrote it down. "
Seeing everyone looking at her with doubtful expressions, especially Ning Guang, whose eyes seemed to penetrate people's hearts, Su Liu felt a little guilty and said: "Oh, I can do it anyway, and you will know when I do." Whether what he said is true or false, I have already written down the prescription."
In fact, Su Liu has never made donkey-hide gelatin, but in her previous life, she had a rich colleague who made donkey-hide gelatin at home. It was a century-old shop, and the donkey-hide gelatin produced was very pure.
At that time, she was curious about such a precious thing as donkey-hide gelatin, so she went to visit the workshop of her colleague's home. Because she was interested, she took a closer look and even helped her, so she also remembered the steps of making it.
After she came back, she locked herself up and wrote down the method in her mind on how to make donkey-hide gelatin. She read it over again several times to make sure she didn't miss anything.
"Liu'er, we don't have a lot of people. The food stall can cover our daily expenses, and we're pretty short on money. This donkey-hide gelatin is medicine after all. Let's not take the risk. If we eat it, we'll be in trouble. But we have to Beheaded." Mrs. Chen advised, her eyebrows full of worry, because of Su Liu's boldness.
Mrs. Chen is said to be meek, but in fact she is timid, especially when it comes to the safety of her two daughters. She objected, firstly, because they had never done it and did not understand it, and secondly, she was timid. I came here because this donkey-hide gelatin is said to be a tonic, but to put it bluntly, it is medicine.
You can go to see a doctor if you eat something that makes you sick, but if you take medicine that makes you sick, you are hopeless and it will take your life.
"Mom, don't worry. If this donkey-hide gelatin is made, it must be inspected by a doctor before it can be sold. How can you just sell it? I have a sense of propriety."
"but..."
"Mom, no buts, I must try to make this donkey-hide gelatin." Su Liu interrupted her words and said seriously: "Now there is a shortage of donkey-hide gelatin. If we make it, it will be real donkey-hide gelatin. Don't talk about it yet.
How much money can we make and how many people can benefit from it?"
"First of all, we make it ourselves, and the first person to benefit is ourselves. If we sell it in medical clinics, the medical clinics will benefit, and the people who buy it can use it on their bodies, that is, the patients will benefit. Also,
, if we do well, we can set up a workshop in the future and hire workers, and the workers will benefit from their wages. Once the business is done, we can also open branches and attract people to cooperate, which will increase the chance of employment and also attract me.
The domestic economic needs of the Da Qi Dynasty."
She finished speaking in a flurry, and Mrs. Chen was a little stunned. How could she be so confused about employment and domestic economic demand?
Not only her, but also Su Xiao and Chen Ye were stunned when they looked at Su Liu. Only Ning Guang narrowed his eyes in thought.
Su Liu also knew that what he said was profound, so he coughed and said: "To put it simply, this is a good opportunity to make a fortune. We are good to others. We are good to everyone."
"Sister, if this is sold, will we live in a big house and wear silk and satin?" Su Xiao asked carefully.
"Yes, if it can be made, let alone a big house, I can even buy you a few girls to serve you." Su Liu said with a smile.
"Well, let's do it. Let's try it out a little first." Su Xiao's eyes were bright and she looked at Mrs. Chen.
Mrs. Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "How come you have become a money addict?"
"I just want us to stand up tall and let those people see how great we are!" Su Xiao raised her chin and said.
Mrs. Chen choked, pursed her lips and stopped talking.
Su Liu glanced at Mrs. Chen and said, "Mom, don't worry, let's try it first. If it works, we'll forget it."
In fact, she was just coaxing Mrs. Chen. In fact, if she couldn't do it right once, she would definitely have to experiment a few more times to make this donkey-hide gelatin. She would not miss such a great opportunity to make a fortune no matter what.
"Ning Guang, do you think this is feasible?" Chen looked at Ning Guang, who had remained silent.
Ning Guang glanced at Su Liu and said meaningfully: "It doesn't hurt to try."
Su Liu breathed a sigh of relief, avoided Ning Guang's gaze, and picked up the vegetables as if nothing had happened. She always felt that she had nothing to hide from under Ning Guang's gaze.
"Then let's give it a try." The minority obeyed the majority, and Chen had no choice but to agree.
"Then let's prepare the materials tomorrow. These items are a little hard to find. Mom, the cost of making donkey-hide gelatin is relatively high. I plan to use all the money we have saved these days. Xiaoxiao, what do you think?" Su Liuben
She was in charge of the money account, and she had complete control over the family's money, but she still asked Chen and the others for their opinions. After all, they were a family.
Su Xiao naturally had no objection, and Chen had no concept of money, so the matter was settled.
After the meal, Su Liu sent Ning Guang out of the hospital and said before Ning Guang, "You said you wouldn't ask. You'll talk about it when I want to."
Ning Guang looked at her deeply, snorted softly, and said: "I underestimate you. You know so much at such a young age. Su Liu, where are you from?"
A peasant girl actually knew things that the Daqi Dynasty didn't have, and now she said she could make donkey-hide gelatin. What other talents did she have that she hadn't yet shown? He was becoming more and more curious.
