"My surname is Yang, the girl calls me Aunt Yang, the girl said that the shop, there are two ready-made, one is in the east of the city, the shop is big, there is a yard in the back, there are four wings, and one is smaller in the south of the city than in the east of the city, and there is also a yard in the back, there are two wings, this one in the south of the city was also selling wine, something happened at home, and now it is in urgent need of money, and the price is lower." The woman introduced

"Thank you, Aunt Yang, Aunt Yang called me Keke, these two families are still troublesome Aunt Yang to take me to see!" Keke said that the specific situation can only be decided after seeing it in person.

"Okay, Keke, if it's convenient, I can take you to see these two shops!" Yang Yapo said.

"It's convenient, Aunt Lao Yang will lead the way." Keke said and got up.

"Okay, let's go now." Yang Yapo took Keke to the outside of the house, first to the east of the city, the shop is now empty, Yang Yapo opened the door, Keke first looked at the shop in front, and then turned around the yard, the shop has two open sizes, next to one is to make rouge gouache, and another is to buy clothes, cloth, the back of the yard with four wings, the kitchen is also readily available, the yard also has a well, overall very good, but the price is a little expensive, to four hundred taels. I didn't say yes, I didn't say no, and followed Yang Yapo to the south of the city, the shop in the south of the city is smaller than the east of the city, a half-open door size, an old man in the shop is guarding, Yang Yapo walked into the shop and shouted: "Uncle Li, I'll take guests to see the shop." ”

"I'm bothering you, please come in!" The old man who was called Uncle Li said politely.

"Uncle Li, excuse me, you're old!" Out of politeness, Keke listened to Yang Yapo's greeting, and he also greeted.

"You're welcome!" Old man Li said with a smile.

Yang Yapo took Keke into the wine shop, the smell of wine came to the nose, the shop was a little old, there were a few large vats in the house, and some wine utensils, and looked roughly, and then went to the back yard and the wing room to see, and then returned to the shop, at this time someone came to drink, waiting for the guests to leave, Keke said to the old man Li: "Uncle Li, how much wine can you sell this day?" Don't hide it from uncle, I'm also planning to sell wine! ”

Old man Li heard Keke say that he also wanted to sell wine, so he became interested and said, "The girl also wants to sell wine?" ”

Keke replied, "Yes, it also sells alcohol. ”

The old man once again confirmed that the little girl in front of him was also planning to sell wine, and unconsciously brought a little more smile, and said: "It's not that I said that my shop is good, my shop has been open for 30 years, and many people buy wine from me, and they can sell at least 100 catties every day." As he spoke, he gave some wine to Keke and Yang Yapo, and said, "Girl, try it!" ”

Yang Yapo drank the wine handed over by the old man Li and said: "Uncle Li's wine is not only fragrant from afar, but also very fragrant and moisturizing. ”

Keke took the wine glass handed over by Old Man Li, took a sip, let the wine go around in his mouth and then swallowed it slowly, and then swallowed the wine before he said: "Uncle, your wine is really good, the fragrance is rich, soft and sweet." ”

"The girl is a drinker!" Old man Li smiled heartily and said, "The wine for the girl is not strong, and the woman can drink less." ”

After listening to Keke, he knew that his comments on wine revealed that he likes wine, at least he is also a person who has some understanding of wine, and he will naturally be a person who loves to drink when he understands wine, and it is right to love drinking, but now this age is a little embarrassing, and said: "My family is in the wine business, so I usually drink some." ”

"It's okay for the girl's family to drink less." Old man Li said, and after speaking, he said to Keke: "The girl is also a good talker, and I don't hide it from the girl, the child in the family is not angry, and after the accident, he was injured again, and after losing the money to others, there was no money for the child to treat the injury, and the doctor of the hospital said that if you want to cure the child, you must need at least two hundred taels of silver to see it well." I can't just sell this shop, what should I do if I was still worried about this wine before? The girl is also planning to sell wine, I wonder if it can be brought with this wine? ”

"Uncle, how much wine is left?" Keke didn't take Uncle Li's words, and asked rhetorically.

"There are still six jars in the shop, and there are twenty-three jars and ten jars of aged wine in the wine cellar." Old man Li said

"Uncle, this wine is good to drink, if you buy it together, Uncle will be cheaper, expensive, I'm afraid I won't be able to take out so much money at once!" There is not much wine, and when I first drank it, it did taste good, and there were these wines, and there were also a group of regular customers who came to sell wine, which was just right to sell wine.

Seeing that Keke promised to buy the rest of the wine together, Old Man Li also said happily: "The girl is refreshing, Lao Tzu and I are also a refreshing person, the shop is already the lowest price given, the general wine is ten yuan a catty, counting six wen a catty, and the aged wine is more expensive, twenty wen a catty." Count fifteen pennies a pound for the girl! There are two hundred catties in each jar, a total of seventy taels and four dollars of silver, even if it is seventy taels, if the girl does not have enough money for the time being, it doesn't matter, this wine is left here to buy first, and then give it to me after selling the money. ”

This uncle is upright, and he estimated in his heart that the wine was seventy taels of silver, the shop was two hundred and sixty taels, and the two things added up to three hundred and thirty taels. Turning his head, he asked Yang Yapo, "Maybe you can handle it now?" ”

"Yes." Yang Yapo replied happily. I didn't expect to sell a shop in one trip, and I could make at least two taels of silver on this trip.

Old man Li took the title deed of the wine shop, drank Keke and followed Yang Yapo to the county office. It was very smooth, and in less than half an hour, Keke came out with the new title deed. After saying goodbye to Old Man Li, Keke said to Yang Yapo: "Trouble Aunt Yang!" After speaking, he gave Yang Yapo a purse and said: "Please ask Aunt Yang about the shop in Dongcheng again, I will buy it for three hundred taels, and the cash will be settled immediately, see if he sells it?" The shop in Dongcheng, where the environment is very good, next to it is selling rouge gouache, clothes, and silver building, even the brothel is also on that street, it is very prosperous, very suitable for handmade soap, essential oils, perfumes and other handmade products in the future, so I have the heart to buy that shop.

"The girl is polite, I'll go now, if the girl is free tomorrow, I'll come to the tooth shop again." Yang Yapo pinched the purse in her hand, a hard lump, it should be a silver horn, and her heart was full of joy, if she said it, she would be able to earn more tomorrow.

After doing a good job, I thought about making handmade soap in the future, and now I have nothing to do, just go to the grocery store to buy some caustic soda, go back to make some handmade soap and prepare it, and then I need it at home, and it is more convenient to use it for washing and bathing with handmade soap. But there is no such thing as caustic soda when I walk down from a few grocery stores, and I don't even know what caustic soda is? This made Keke a little anxious, what should I do if there are no materials? While walking and thinking, I unconsciously walked to the door of a salt shop, looking at the white swaying salt, a flash of inspiration in my mind, remembering the information that I had made a large number of handmade soaps, handmade soap is actually very easy to make, the most basic is caustic soda and some oil, blended in proportion, you can also add some essential oils, petals, etc. to make handmade soap with different fragrances and effects! I remember that I also specifically inquired about caustic soda at that time, caustic soda is synthesized with baking soda and quicklime, first put the quicklime in water to become lime slurry, and then put the baking soda into lime slurry, quickly stir and then precipitate, and finally pour out the precipitated water, which is caustic soda solution. Baking soda in the synthesis of caustic soda, the ingredient sodium bicarbonate, an edible alkali, is commonly used for fermentation, such as steamed steamed buns, etc. There is often a kind of salt frost in the sedimentary area of salt lakes, which is a kind of trona, ———— saline, and the main component of saline alkali is sodium bicarbonate. Caustic soda can be synthesized by using salt alkali and lime to make handmade soap. The most effective way to inquire about salt alkali is to go to the salt shop to ask, as for the lime needed for the synthesis of caustic soda, it is not difficult to find, lime is also called stone forging in traditional Chinese medicine, it is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine, and the pharmacy must have.

After thinking about it, I walked into the salt shop in front of me and wanted to inquire about the salt and alkali. In ancient times, salt was controlled by the imperial court, and private individuals were not allowed to sell it, and they could only be sold after reporting to the government, and this era was no exception. After walking into the salt shop, the guy said enthusiastically: "Coarse salt is fifteen wen a catty, and fine salt is twenty wen a catty." Which do you want? ”。

"Trouble brother, bring me five catties of fine salt." Keke said with a smile, not caring about the guy's attitude.

Xiao Er weighed it and handed it to Keke, who immediately handed over a piece of silver for one or two pieces, and said, "The rest of the little brother doesn't need to look for it, keep it for some wine to drink." ”

"Then you're welcome, thank you, girl!" Just now, he looked like he was ignoring people, but now he immediately changed to a happy and polite face.

"Little brother, you're welcome, I also want to inquire about one thing, can you ask your shopkeeper to bring me some salt frost back, I want to buy some, just buy it at the price of coarse salt, do you think it's okay?" Keke asked. Salt frost is salt alkali.

After Xiao Er took the money, he also spoke better, and said: "Look at the girl, she is not the one who can't afford salt to eat, what does the girl want?" You can't eat it, you have to eat something wrong. ”

Keke smiled and said: "Thank you, little brother, I know that salt cream can't be eaten, but it has some other uses, and it won't hurt people, don't worry, little brother, I live in Fengxiang Village, not far from here, my surname is Li, and I can ask about it in the village." ”

As soon as Xiao Er heard Keke say this, he also said politely: "The girl can also want it, and I will bring some to the girl when I send salt next time." "What no one wants can be sold for money, so I agreed to it.

"Thank you, little brother, just trouble my little brother to bring me five hundred catties first." After speaking, he directly gave the 500 catties of salt frost money to Xiao'er first, and said, "I will give this salt cream money first." "Give the money first, in order to reassure the salt shop, she is sure to ask for this salt frost, and at the same time, it is also in order to receive the salt frost as soon as possible and start making handmade soap as soon as possible.

"The girl is really a cheerful person, then the girl will come and get it in ten days." Xiao Er said that the reason why he can call the shots is because this salt shop is opened by his own family.

"Thank you, little brother, then I'll leave first, and I'll come back to pick it up in ten days." Keke said, taking the five catties of salt he bought, he walked out of the salt shop.
