LI Jia. Bridal chamber!

Hearing her brother ask about business, Li Lan immediately took out an account book and handed it to Li Yi!

"Income and expenses are recorded on it, you see for yourself, I'll eat first!"

Li Yi was not polite, and immediately picked up the account book and looked at it.

It has been a month and a half since they left, and Li Yi can see from the books that the family's income has been declining continuously during this time.

Especially since mid-September, it has almost been cut in half!

Looking at the expenditure, it's pretty much the same!

In August, the family spends at least 600 yuan a day to buy mushroom goods, and sometimes it can even reach 700 yuan.

But in October, there was only 200 yuan left, and in many cases even 200 yuan was not enough!

This means that the Li family can now receive less than 1,000 catties of mushrooms every day.

"Did you find a problem?" The second sister asked while eating gruel and cakes.

"Well, it's not going well!" Li Yi said.

"During this time, both the mushroom business and the cool skin business have been greatly affected, and the income has dropped a lot!"

Then, she explained the general situation!

And knowing that the mushrooms purchased every day are not even 1,000 catties, and the cold skin is sold for less than 200 copies a day at most, Tang Xue immediately said with some guilt: "I'm sorry, if it weren't for me, our family's business wouldn't be like this!" ”

Li Yi pinched her pretty face, smiled and said, "Don't make any mistakes on your head, this matter has nothing to do with you!" ”

"How can it have nothing to do with me, if you hadn't accompanied me back to my parents' house, how could this have happened!" Tang Xue said a little stubbornly.

"I said it had nothing to do with you, so why didn't you listen?"

Then Li Yi continued: "Whether it is a cold skin business or a mountain goods business, this is directly related to the weather, because the weather is cold, so there is naturally less cold skin. The same goes for mushrooms, which are affected when the weather is cold. ”

"Is that really the case?"

"Well, and this is still now, in half a month, the mushrooms will be gone!" Li Yi said.

"Then we won't have to do this business?" Tang Xue asked with some concern.

"Hehe, why can't you do it!"

Then Li Yi said with a smile: "In the first few months, we were all investing money in it, and then when the weather was cold and the fresh mushrooms were gone, it was our turn to ship dried mushrooms." ”

"So the colder the weather, the better it is for us, the harvest season is coming!"

Hearing this, Tang Xue and Li Lan breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

During this time, with the decline of business, both Li Lan and the rest of the family were a little anxious.

But they couldn't contact Li Yi, so they could only be in a hurry!

"Xiao Yi, have you found a buyer for these dried mushrooms of yours?" Li Lan asked.

"Not yet, but don't worry, and it's not cost-effective to ship now!" Li Yi said.

"When is the right time to ship?"

"It's past the solar year, preferably at the end of the year!"

"Isn't it going to take two or three months for so long?"

"Hmm!"

Li Yi is still relatively clear about the price of dry goods this year, and the price of dried mushrooms will begin to rise in November, but the increase is not very large until New Year's Day.

But after New Year's Day, the price will suddenly rise sharply, and it will reach its peak by the end of the year.

So, he doesn't have to rush to ship it now, let the bullets fly for a while!

As he was talking, there was a sudden sound of a car bell outside the door, and then I saw a bicycle riding directly into the yard!

If you take a closer look, it turned out to be the third sister Li Na!

After Li Na entered the yard, she glanced left and right, and then immediately parked her bicycle!

Immediately afterwards, he ran directly to Tang Xue's side and said happily: "Xiaoxue, are you really back?" ”

"When I got home, I saw your suitcase, and I guessed that you were back, but I didn't expect it to be!"

Tang Xue was also very happy to see Li Na, the eldest sister and best friend.

"Sister Na, you're back from the stall, how is the deal?"

Li Na sighed and said, "There are fewer and fewer people who eat cold skin, and only more than two hundred copies have been sold today, which is about half less than before. However, there are more white-crusted cakes than before, and today they are selling more than 400! ”

"So much?"

"Hmm!"

At this time, Li Yi on the side said with a smile: "Normally, the weather is already cold, and there will only be fewer and fewer people who eat cold skin!" ”

"What then?"

"In a few days, the cool skin business will stop!" Li Yi said in surprise.

"Stop... Stopped? ”

Hearing this, the three women in the courtyard were stunned, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Li Yi.

"Don't look at me like that, I'm serious!" Li Yi said.

"Do you really want to stop? If we stop, we won't have any income! Li Na frowned.

"Selling cold skin is a seasonal business, and it's not easy to do after this season."

Then Li Yi continued: "In addition, I only thought of this small business when I was doing it to marry Xiaoxue, and doing this is not actually a long-term plan!" ”

"Then what else can we do if we don't sell cold skin?"

"Hehe, I've already thought about what to do, I'll talk to you later!" Li Yi said with a smile.

Li Na still believed in her little brother's ability, and immediately said: "That's okay, I'll listen to you!" ”

Li Yi looked at his watch, it was almost two o'clock!

At that moment, he said to Tang Xue and his two sisters: "In the evening, I plan to invite Dongzi, Qiangzi and Shi to their homes for a meal, and by the way, talk about the next arrangements, you stay here now, and I will go back to cook!" ”

"Can I help you?" The third sister immediately asked.

"No need!"

Then Li Yi asked again: "By the way, is there meat at home?" ”

"The fresh meat is gone, but there is still a lot of marinated pork in the jar!" The third sister said.

"Got it!"

After finishing speaking, Li Yi rode his bicycle and left the new house!

Back at the old house, Li Yi first took the luggage in the house to the west room!

At the same time, I sorted out the gifts I brought back from Chang'an City, and then I started to prepare for cooking!

First of all, I pulled the ingredients at home, half a jar of pickled pork with lard residue, a small amount of potatoes, twenty or thirty Chinese cabbage, two large baskets of large radish, and more than a dozen gourds!

As soon as he saw these things, Li Yi knew that it was the village that divided the dishes.

Every year, the village will plant some radishes, cabbage, gourds and other things near Xihegou, and at the end of September and early October, they will distribute vegetables to the members, and the members rely on these vegetables to support a winter.

Li Yi calculated that there were six people in the family, plus six or seven people from Dongzi and Shishi, and there were at least twelve or thirteen people who came to eat at home at night.

With so many people, it is definitely not appropriate to eat stir-fried food.

Besides, there aren't that many dishes to stir-fry!

After thinking about it again and again, Li Yi finally decided to make a pot of stewed vegetables and steam a basket of steamed cakes!

Thinking of doing it, Li Yi immediately took action!
