Chapter 166: Serious Lack of Money!
Red Ridge pouted, "I just want to see it." β
Li Hongmei's face was full of black lines.
"I said Sister Hongling, if you don't play tricks on people like this, what do you mean by wanting to see it? You're going to make me think there's something here? β
Red Ridge glared at her with a slightly curious face, "Huh? Misunderstanding, how could you be misunderstood? Why do you have such an idea? β
Li Hongmei grabbed her collar angrily. "What do you say? Obviously, you look at me like this, and I ...... with the mountain."
Hongling suddenly said, "Oh, it turns out that you have something to do with the mountain?" β
Rao is thick-skinned, and Li Hongmei is also a little embarrassed. Letting go of his hand, "Big Mountain...... Sometimes it's not light or heavy, and I'm not afraid that he will leave some mark. β
Hongling understood it even more, a look of sympathy for you, gently patted her wrist, and then gently persuaded.
"Ahem, this, Hongmei, I also have a little sympathy for you. Dashan, after all, is a man with good personal strength, alas, but this family ...... There are old and young. Especially Zi'an and Little Fat Man, they are in the time of puberty, you say you are so ...... Ahem, sister, I don't mean anything else. It means to advise you, in the future, it will be slightly quieter...... What do you think......
feelings, this sister-in-law is going around in circles, tactfully persuading her to come. This time, Li Hongmei was completely congested.
stared at the person in front of him for a long time, stunned and embarrassed to answer.
Hongling looked like an insider, patting her on the shoulder earnestly to comfort her.
"You, you are just too kind, are you a man, especially we can't be so sincere as women. You can't accommodate the mountains in everything. The man looked like a painless man. In the future, what should be managed should still be managed, and if you don't agree, don't respond. β
Why does this sound familiar?
Li Hongmeiyuan opened her eyes.
Until Red Ridge is far away.
"Ah, didn't you say that my wife was so kind, and my mother-in-law also told me, daughter-in-law, you are too good, Dashan is too ......."
It turns out that this family is like a family.
Sure enough, the honest and honest sister-in-law Hongling is also the same existence as Zhao's mother.
"Perhaps, I'm really being too sincere. Hey! β
Li Hongmei stinks beautifully, and she also feels that she is a kind existence.
However, Li Hongmei is also worried these days.
The three children in the family want to go to Rosin Academy, and the money is not enough.
"Dashan, we have no money again, you say, why is this silver not enough!"
At night, Li Hongmei was a little depressed and counted left and right, no matter how she calculated, she didn't think it was too good.
"It's not enough, I'm going to do the work with Jiaxing?"
Jiaxing went outside to pick up work a few days ago.
In fact, that team also made a name for itself.
A lot of people now like to build a courtyard house.
With the bathing room they set up, many people love it very much.
"Take the job, don't take it for now. How's the village going? β
After coming back, Li Hongmei didn't know what was going on in the village after a series of incidents.
"Oh, I don't know about this, I haven't been to the village for a few days, you can go for a walk another day."
"Okay."
Li Hongmei hummed a little unenergetically.
This time there was a lack of money, so I could only advance a little money in charge of money.
That bit of speculation, fortunately, is the commission that you want. Otherwise, it's really not too easy to talk about borrowing money.
"Okay, how much money is left for our family?"
The money given by the old steward last time was used to pay a lot of expenses in the village. This time, because of the success of the performance at the Huang family, all the money was used to buy props.
is not enough, Li Hongmei, the class owner, also paid dozens of taels in advance.
This time, Tim's line, according to the villagers, is really a decent guy.
However, this time, the money in Li Hongmei's hand was gone.
"Lady, I don't think it's a law for our family to point to the speculation now. The last time I heard the old steward say that there were some imitation fried goods from people outside. Walking backwards, people figured out the taste of us, and it is estimated that they will not make too much money. β
Li Hongmei nodded affirmatively. "yes, so we have to ...... Find a way to open another channel to make money. Tea, Sister Luo will have to return for a while. That money has long been used by me to plan the development of the monastery. Perhaps, this amount of money is not enough. So we don't think about the money. As for the side, the expenses of the family, as well as the expenses of the three children. Even Sister Luo and the little fat man's family have to pay. However, our junior also needs a lot of money. β
Although their family is in the mountains, they can't let Xiao San'er be looked down upon in the academy.
What should be added, it should be added.
If it's not luxurious, she's certainly not extravagant.
However, you must not suffer from San'er. There is also the home, the placement of the red ridge, and the expenses of the family.
"Dashan, I estimate, our family Hongling, and Erya, this year I can't see if I have to talk about family affairs and get married. Especially our sister Hongling, it is not easy to get married. Because of her age, she was a concubine. If we don't buy her a dowry, I'm afraid that people will look down on her at that time. So we have to count this amount of money. β
The more she calculated, the more worried Li Hongmei became.
She didn't want to care too much, but, she didn't care...... Is this heart happy?
When the time comes, the mother-in-law and the man look at Hongling and Erya with regretful faces, will she feel good about this?
The more Dashan listened, the more anxious he became.
Constantly scratching your head. "Daughter-in-law, you say, let's do something more? The chili sauce you tossed earlier, I looked at it, and it didn't seem to work. However, we can't toss some antiques and goods like the people in the city. In addition to these rural specialties, we don't seem to have anything else! β
"Goods from the city, antiques, souvenirs from the countryside......"
Li Hongmei muttered unconsciously.
But after talking and talking, this interest came all of a sudden.
"Dashan, Dashan, I also think that it is necessary for us to think about the specialties next to us now. Haha, we're villagers, so don't we have to do what villagers' do. Specialties, local characteristics and culture, as well as the characteristics of our village...... No, let me think about it, I'm going to ...... quietly."
Seeing the little lady's bright eyes, Zhao Dashan reached out and stroked her head.
"Lady, don't be in a hurry, let's take our time."
Li Hongmei nodded obediently.
Actually, she also thought about renting a small shop in the city earlier, and then doing some snack business, as well as eating and other work.
But thinking about it, I'm tired of that kind of play.
In addition, the life in the mountain village is quite tasteful, so I don't think about it.
Now the money is poor, and I can't do it if I don't want to.
"By the way, lady, we really have to make money, otherwise we will encounter drought and waterlogging or something, but it will be really choking."
Li Hongmei's heart sank when she listened.
What are you most afraid of in ancient times?
That's a drought or a flood.
People here are in the era of relying on the sky to eat the sky, and if you want to put aside the modern age, you can also use high technology to let the sky give you a few rains, but this is impossible.
When there is a drought, there are many families who sell their children.
Why were the Hongling sisters and brothers sold by Liu Baocai?
It wasn't caused by drought and flood.
It is said that there was a great drought and flood at that time, and the sister and brother were sold by the bastard Liu Baocai without resistance.
"So Dashan, what we have to do now is to stock up on grain, right?"
Li Hongmei continued on this topic heavily.
"Well, I also remember that I was still young, five or six years old, and there was a drought and flood in our area. Many people went to escape the famine, and when the weather was better, ten of the people in this village were gone. Many of them were later relocated from the mountains farther away. β
That's the cruelty of reality.
Li Hongmei's heart was also heavier when she heard it. At this time, she once again realized that she was too stupid and naΓ―ve.
If you really have two coins in your hand, this day will be better.
In fact, she is still far from the life of this rich woman.
"Well, so, the most important thing for us now is how to think about developing a side hustle. Expand our current family fund or something. β
Li Hongmei tapped her fingers and began to spread out the paper, writing down the available plans on it.
Tea tree oil, this has been thought of before.
But the problem is that there are not many tea tree fruits now, so if you want to squeeze oil, this is enough to choke.
As for sesame oil. This can also be considered.
However, the problem is that there are not enough raw materials.
"Where's the sugar?"
When she wrote and painted here, Li Hongmei's eyes suddenly lit up.
Sugar, that's something that a lot of people use.
However, the extraction of sugar is still very conservative here.
It is said that the local sugar was also trafficked from outside.
Because of this, sugar is so expensive.
"Haha, Dashan, there is a plan, we can implement it, this candy, many people have it, right? We can make our own sugar. β
Zhao Dashan scratched his head when he heard this, and finally, after she finished speaking, "Lady, I don't know what the white sugar you are talking about." But, I heard you say it's going to be candy. But the question is, do we have these machines, do we still have such technical work? β
Li Hongmei was dumb when she listened.
She didn't seem to know any of these things.
Although she is a crossing woman.
However, that doesn't mean she can do everything.
Machine, it's a grinding goblin.
She didn't study engineering and manufacturing, so how could she be doing this.
And the craftsmanship, to be honest, it's really not that difficult. As long as you are willing to learn and love to ponder, you should be able to do it.
Anyway, she used to have a lot of knowledge in Baidu, no.
"Alas, this idea of oil extraction, it seems that we don't have to think about it. Cross out. Sauce, chili sauce, and pseudo-stick country kimchi? β
Zhao Dashan's eyes lit up when he listened to the words of his little lady.
"Lady, you want to say that our kimchi is good, right? I think it's good, too. However, let's just take out the kimchi and sell it, it's too classless. I always feel that it is a bit of a lower riba feeling! β
Note: The lower riba people, here probably means too rustic and unlayered.
