Chapter 92: The beauty sent to the door
At three o'clock in the morning, Nianzi Mountain Village was very beautiful, with a little starlight in the sky, and Li Yi's house was also lit up.
The light and the stars in the sky reflected each other, but it seemed hazy.
The green hills in the distance have turned into a black and daunting patch.
A few barking dogs can be heard from time to time in the village, adding a bit of mystery to this peaceful little village.
Because there were too many cool skins to make today, Li Yi could only get up a few hours in advance to catch up with the work, otherwise it would be impossible to send more than 1,000 copies of cold skins to the city before noon.
Li Yi skillfully put the waferred dough into the clear water, and he filled the dozen or so huge aluminum basins he bought.
Washing your face is a physical job, so even if the morning is the lowest temperature of the day, Li Yi is still sweaty.
At four o'clock, the third sister, who heard the movement, also got up from the kang and came over to help.
Although she saw that her younger brother had become better and the whole person was diligent, Li Na was happy in her heart.
But seeing that he gets up early every day and feels dark, gets up before dawn in the morning to make cool skin, drives mule carts to set up stalls everywhere to deliver goods during the day, and sorts out mountain goods at night, the whole person is busy like a spinning top, she is a little distressed.
So, usually help as much as you can!
No way, who made her a sister!
Watching the cool skins come out of the pot smoothly, and then be put into the big basin for later use, the sister and brother are very happy!
Every time you make one, it means that you have earned a dime and a half.
Don't look down on one dime and five cents, in this era of buying things, there are too many things that can be bought in one dime and five cents.
For example, a pound of flour is only a dime and six cents, rice is a dime and eight cents, corn is nine cents, cabbage is two cents, and even if you go to the city to watch a movie, it will cost two cents.
Therefore, the profit of one and a half cents per cool skin can really be regarded as a huge profit!
The most important thing is that the technical content of making cool skin is not high, and most people in Qin Province will make it themselves, that is, they think it is a rare thing on their side of Saibei.
But in any case, for now, this is an exclusive deal, and it is to make money!
At eight o'clock in the morning, more than 1,400 servings of cold skins were ready, and two large barrels were filled.
Then the sister and brother went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables and prepare side dishes.
It was only soon that they found out that there were not enough vegetables in the garden.
The Li family's vegetable garden is very large, with nearly one acre of land, and every year the vegetables grown by their family are not finished, and occasionally they will secretly take them to the city to sell.
But this year, because Li Yi started this small business of selling cold skin, the consumption of vegetables is very large, and it has only been half a month, and the vegetables grown by their own family have consumed seventy-seven, eighty-eight.
At that moment, Li Yi said hello to Uncle Zhuzhu next door, and then went to his vegetable garden to pick a few baskets of vegetables.
Of course, this is for money!
If you usually lack any dishes at home, you can order them from your neighbors, and it will naturally cost nothing.
But his nature is different, and there are quite a few of them, so he has to give money.
But today's time is a little tight, so he didn't say the price specifically, let's talk about it later!
At eight o'clock, the big red mule cart finally set off and rushed to Zhiqing Point.
When I came out of the Zhiqing Point, the whole mule cart looked a little bloated.
Because there are too many things, not only is the whole carriage full of large and small baskets, but even a layer is placed on it.
Even though it's tied up with a rope, it still looks dangerous.
Li Na proposed whether to borrow another car from the team, but Li Yi vetoed it.
Their family has already borrowed a mule cart from the production team, and if they borrow another one, the others will gossip.
He can't borrow it, he plans to buy one!
That's right, the mule cart they are using now is not Li Yi's own, but borrowed from the production team.
From the time of the large agricultural cooperatives, all the means of production, including cattle, horses, mules, and donkeys, as well as the tools of production, were owned by the collectives.
The main reason why Li Yi was able to use the big red mule for a long time was that his father Li Shankui was the one who drove the big cart in the production team, and he was responsible for raising the big red mule.
In order to take care of the big red mule in the slack season, Li Shankui brought it home, but he didn't expect to help Li Yi a lot.
But after a while, the work in the fields will be busy again, so the matter of this car must be put on the agenda.
After all, borrowing the mule cart of the production team every day is not like a thing, and it is always the convenience of your own home.
But I still have to discuss this matter with my father!
.......
Due to the late departure today, it was already half past ten when I arrived at the state-run hotel.
After hurriedly unloading 400 pieces of cold skins and five or six baskets of mountain goods, Li Yi did not wait for Liu Jingshan to settle the funds for him, but went straight to the sugar factory in the suburbs.
After sending the cold skin and white skin cakes to the sugar factory, Li Yi also did not wait for the settlement, and then left in a hurry.
There is no way, the new house at home is going to be built today, and Li Yi must rush back early to cook for the masters who helped build the house.
After coming out of the sugar factory, Li Yi sent Li Na to the gate of the textile factory, unloaded the cart, and he himself rode back to the village on a big red mule.
Compared to a horse-drawn carriage, a mule is much faster.
Don't look at the mule, it doesn't look as powerful as a horse, but in fact, it combines the advantages of a horse and a donkey, and is much stronger than a horse in terms of endurance and speed.
More than ten miles away, the big red mule came back in half an hour.
Li Yi first went to the Zhiqing Point, and today his family is in Shangliang, and he has to cook for more than 20 people at once, and Li Yi alone will definitely not be able to do it alone.
So Li Yi had already said that he would let Tang Xue and those female intellectuals go to help together.
When Li Yi came over, Tang Xue, Zhang Xinyao, Feng Qian and others were already ready, and when several female intellectuals saw that Li Yi was actually riding a big red mule, everyone's eyes widened.
Li Yi, who was already handsome, rode on the back of a mule, and the whole person looked high-spirited and very energetic, just like a knight in ancient times.
Driving the horse to Tang Xue's side, Li Yi turned over from the mule's back, and then said to Tang Xue, "Do you want to try?" ”
Tang Xue was very moved, but still said: "I don't dare!" ”
"It's okay, I'll pull the reins for you, let's not run, walk slowly!" Li Yi said.
"Really not running?"
"Hmm!"
Tang Xue herself is a teenage girl who is full of curiosity about new things.
After getting Li Yi's assurance, he immediately nodded.
Then, Li Yi helped her onto the back of the big red mule, let her grab a handful of the mule's mane, and he pulled the reins, and the group went straight to Li Yi's house!
