Chapter 93: Wow, I'm Rich
Gu Yuqiao remembered that in his previous life, a coconut water was sold for twenty yuan, and after drinking the juice, the coconut could not be taken away - no way, there was a lack of material in the last days.
Xiao Niyin was also surprised: "Wow, coconut can be made into many dishes and desserts, and people here don't know the goods." ”
Regarding Shennong Ding's behavior of quickly checking the recipe every time he sees a new food, the girl is powerless to complain.
After the shock, the girl became happy.
"If I buy coconuts publicly, will anyone sell me?"
The village chief and Aunt Wu were both stunned and smiled again.
"What are you doing with that? If you like it, you can take as much as you want here, it's a worthless thing anyway. ”
However, as soon as Gu Huaming heard it, he felt that the smart little head of his good girl must have some bold ideas.
In order not to frighten the village chief and his wife, he patted his daughter's shoulder and said, "Then thank you Uncle Quanyou." ”
Gu Yuqiao was inexplicably happy when she saw that her father didn't make a fuss and asked her about it, and he didn't object.
With a generous wave of his hand, the father and daughter carried ten coconuts home.
On the way, Gu Huaming couldn't wait to ask: "Good girl, what are you going to do, do you want your father to help?" ”
"Of course, I can't do it without you."
When he got home, Gu Yuqiao didn't say what he wanted to make, but only told his father how to do it.
There is no instrument, so you can only use the most primitive method, manually scrape out the coconut meat with a knife, then mash it into crumbs, set up a large pot and boil it in the water until the oil and water are separated, the oil floats on the water, and scoops it out.
This is the fastest method, and there is also a method of removing water at low temperatures after fermentation, which is more damaging to coconut oil, but takes longer.
Gu Huaming and Lu Manjing looked at the golden oil, so surprised that they couldn't speak.
"I've lived by the sea for most of my life, and I didn't know that coconut can also be used to extract oil!"
"And it's only ten coconuts, and twelve catties of oil have been produced!"
The girl blinked her bright peach blossom eyes, "Daddy, mother, let's do this business, okay?" ”
"Doing business?"
Lu Manjing covered her mouth in shock, she had always been responsible, she only thought about farming, and she had never had the idea of doing business, and she was a little shocked by her daughter's thoughts for a while.
Gu Huaming smiled loudly and said, "Good girl, your idea is very good. In our Yang'an County, there are too many coconuts to count, and the wild ones grow very well, and they can be picked all year round, and the natural supply cannot be cut off. ”
He has an active brain, he is not an honest man who is peaceful, if he hadn't married a beautiful lady and was reluctant to leave home from time to time, he would have followed his good brother to run the business.
Nowadays, it is great to be able to start a business from home.
A bold idea suddenly popped up in his heart, maybe their family could make their business bigger and go to the capital.
At that time, after Lu Manjing reacted, the chatter in her mouth had already been counted.
"Twelve catties of oil a day, thirty wen a catty, three hundred and sixty hundred wen a day, isn't that a month to earn ten taels of silver? Oh my God, our four acres of land have only harvested so much silver at most! ”
Lu Manjing excitedly twisted her father-in-law's arm, "Wow, you've made a fortune!" ”
"Ouch!" Seeing his own lady's happy reaction, Gu Huaming was in pain and happy, "Lady, ...... pain"
The girl couldn't help but open her cherry mouth wide, "Mother, you are so fast!" ”
Lu Manjing's mental arithmetic ability may not be anything in modern times, but in ancient farmers, it is really surprising.
