Chapter 166: Open a shop again?
"As expected." Hearing the new system task, Xia Yan smiled, after such a long time, she had gradually figured out the law of the system issuing tasks.
Two dim sum recipes were given as a reward before, and with this newly obtained freezer, it makes sense that the system released the task of opening a dessert shop.
But this is also in line with Xia Yan's intentions, she has been busy for so long, in addition to wanting to be able to eat cake at any time for herself and her family, the most important thing is to count on using these snacks to earn money and merit.
After five years of hard work, she has accumulated a quarter of the 100,000 merits needed to get back the primary one, although it seems slow, but as long as the flour is slowly promoted, it will be easier and easier to earn merit.
Xia Yan had already understood clearly how merit was calculated.
Probably one merit per person for each crop, that is, the more people eat it, the more varieties there are, the faster the merit will be accumulated, and it will only be a matter of time before flour and vegetables are spread to other places.
But the 100,000 taels of gold, that is, 1 million taels of silver, are still far away.
Don't look at Xia Yan's business is very prosperous, but because the price of flour is too high, it is impossible for ordinary people to eat it as a staple food, and they can only occasionally buy some to satisfy their cravings. And the green vegetables launched by Xia Yan are only sold in winter. Because there are different vegetables in spring, summer and autumn, and the price is cheap, people will naturally choose those ordinary vegetables to eat, after all, every meal costs a few taels of silver, and few families can afford it.
Therefore, in the entire Qin County, except for Bianxi Village, which is rich and wealthy, and can eat flour and fresh vegetables every day, only a few wealthy families will regard these things as their main food.
Although 1,000 acres of wheat is enough, it is only enough for the fifth year, and the previous four years did not receive much from the villagers at all.
So much so that in the past five years, Xia Yan has only saved less than one-third of one million taels of silver, that is, three hundred thousand taels of silver, and a large part of this silver comes from the oranges that Xia Yan sold to the Ruyi Chamber of Commerce.
Although Xia Yan's orange can bear fruit every seven days under the promotion of spiritual spring water, in order to ensure its preciousness, she has long stopped watering the spiritual spring water and let the orange tree grow naturally.
Without the blessing of the spiritual spring water, the orange returns to its normal fruiting time, which is the autumn and winter of each year.
And this is exactly what Xia Yan wants, after all, there are different fruits in spring, summer and autumn, and people's choices are increasing, so the temptation of this orange is not so great.
So in the past five years, only in winter, Xia Yan will sell oranges to the Ruyi Chamber of Commerce, and after a whole winter, he can only earn tens of thousands of taels.
Two years ago, Xia Yan had already heard that there was a kind of orange in the capital that suddenly appeared in the capital, but the quality was not as good as before, and it was even far worse, but it was better than nothing, and some people who couldn't afford Xia Yan's oranges would buy some of that kind of orange to satisfy their hunger.
Xia Yan knew that those must be oranges grown from the branches and buds stolen by the Ruyi Chamber of Commerce, but she didn't take it to heart, they were just some defective products, how could they be compared to her.
However, after a few years, the popularity of oranges has gradually decreased, from a hundred taels of silver to a stable price of thirty taels each, but it has not shaken its status as the king of fruits.
The place where Xia Yan planted oranges had already been circled by her, and she planted other fruit seeds bought in the space mall, in order to make it more convenient for herself to make desserts, and she didn't have to rack her brains to explain the origin of these fruits to people.
As for the situation of being stolen by other villagers to plant, it was not in the scope of concern for Xia Yan at all.
Because she has made a fortune with the whole village over the years, the people in the village have long been headed by her, and in their hearts, Xia Yan's status has even surpassed that of Li Zheng, if she is not willing, I am afraid that the position of the village chief is Xia Yan's.
The previous village chief of Bianxi Village has passed away for many years, because there is no one in the village except Li Zheng who can be admired by the whole village with confidence, so the position of the village chief is vacant.
finally met a Xia Yan who thought about the whole village, of course they wanted to tie her tightly to the village, and her age was no longer in their consideration.
On the bright side, isn't it a good thing that the village chief can be a few more years when he is younger, so that they don't have to work hard to elect a new village head?
But no matter how they persuaded them, in the end, even Li Zheng came forward, and Xia Yan didn't agree.
Just kidding, she still has to go out to earn silver, how can she tie herself to this place in Bianxi Village?
Although Xia Yan's insistence and refusal made the matter stop, she still kept her word in this village, and few people dared to disobey what she said, and they didn't want to disobey.
They all know that they can make money by following Xia Yan with meat to eat, and they can make money lying down, and it is absolutely right to listen to her.
So when Xia Yan informed the whole village that the place that was enclosed was a forbidden place, no one in the whole village had the idea of going to see what was going on.
The pile of tall flour in Xia Yan's space sighed, these flours were newly harvested recently, but because the flour business in Qin County has become saturated, and the businesses in other counties have just started, they can't sell much at all, so the flour produced by this thousand acres of land is useless for a while.
In order to ensure the freshness of the flour, Xia Yan only left a small part for later use, and the rest was stored in the space.
Fortunately, she has a space that can keep it fresh forever, if someone else puts so much flour at home, I'm afraid it will already be moldy and insect-like.
But there is no way to do it, after all, the purchasing power of a county town is limited, even if you add the villages of ten miles and eight townships, it is not much better.
But because she has firmly rooted in Qin County and has just gained a firm foothold in this county, she doesn't want to leave for a while, so she can only find another way to seek other development.
She counted the resources she had, and in addition to wheat and various fruits, there were also new corn seeds and roses.
No matter how much it is to sell everything together is the fastest way to make money, but it is not a little long-term, and when the freshness passes, it will still return to that half-dead appearance.
This kind of quick money to dig a pit for himself, Xia Yan doesn't want to earn.
In this world, instead of casting a net generally, it is better to be refined and stronger.
After some deliberation, she put her mind on the woman.
You must know that no matter what world you are in, a woman's money is the best to earn, buy and buy when she is in a good mood, and buy and buy when she is in a bad mood, whether it is food, use, or wear, there is no woman who is not interested.
Anyway, for Xia Yan herself, what she is most interested in is eating, and among all the foods, her favorite is desserts.
Whether it's the creamy cream cake, the fragrant chocolate pie, or the crispy and tempting cookies, it's her favorite.
She believes that there are few women in the world who can resist the temptation of desserts.
In order to make desserts at home more conveniently, Xia Yan even bought a few cows and raised them in captivity, so that he could get fresh milk.
She also asked Tang Yi to help her build a set of baking tools according to her requirements.
After a period of exploration, the contents of the two recipes rewarded by the system have long been remembered by her, and she even invented many things that are not even on the recipes.
Now Xia Yan, the shop, manpower, ingredients, and experience are all available, and the system is tantamount to icing on the cake for her to release this kind of task at this time.
Coupled with the big freezer that the system rewarded her, Xia Yan already had an idea of what to do when she opened the store for the first time.
Since he had decided to open a store, Xia Yan didn't wait any longer, and immediately went out of the space to catch up with Xiao Hei and came to Fengchun Street, found an empty shop, and put the big refrigerator in it.
"Yan'er, what are you going to do here?" Jiang Xiaoyu saw Xia Yan who suddenly arrived, and hurriedly put down the work in her hand and rushed over, and found her standing in front of a large white cabinet.
"Sister Xiaoyu." Xia Yan smiled sweetly when he saw the visitor, "I'm going to open a shop here, so I'll prepare first." ”
"Open a shop again?" Hearing her say this, Jiang Xiaoyu was stunned.
The word admiration is already difficult to describe Xia Yan's feeling in her heart, if she has to find a few words to describe it, it is shock and worship.
This young girl only took a few years to buy a street property, and from time to time she would come up with something she had never seen before to increase the popularity of this street.
If it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that he would have become a shopkeeper and lived a good life of eating, drinking and having fun at home.
But this girl not only did not slack off, but also took over the hardest work, letting them stay in the shop to take care of the business and collect cash, while she went door to door to talk about business all day long.
Now the whole village finally agreed to help her farm, I thought she would rest for some time, but I didn't expect that just a few days later, she had a new goal.
"Yan'er, what kind of shop do you want to open and what do you want to sell?" Jiang Xiaoyu looked at the white cabinet, and really couldn't guess what this big cabinet could do.
Putting things on the table?
It's a pity to look at this good material and use it to put things up.
Stocking up?
But Xia Yan usually keeps things at home, and she doesn't take them to the shop at all.
Jiang Xiaoyu thought about breaking his head, but he didn't come up with a reason.
"Sister Xiaoyu, you open the door of this cabinet." Xia Yan smiled mysteriously, "Be careful, don't be scared." ”
Although Xia Yan looked mysterious and reminded herself to be careful, Jiang Xiaoyu knew that she would not harm herself, so she stepped forward boldly and gently opened the cabinet door.
