Mei You took Wei Meili's question home to think about it, and before leaving, she brought back two more pieces of soil soap.
After Meiyou left, Meiberry was thinking about sorting out the recipes given by the system in the afternoon.
After a day or two, I will talk to Mei You about my improvement, and it will be a matter of course.
"Let me see, if this soap is really made like this and made in a small workshop, it won't make much money."
Mei Mei went to the vegetable garden with Wei Meili for a walk, and her mother had a handful of beans and a cucumber in her hands.
When she returned to the kitchen, she asked Meiberry for some dried bamboo shoots that she had put away before and soaked them in water.
During this process, the mother and daughter also talked a lot.
While folding beans, she talked about it with Mayberry again.
"Ah? Mom, why did you say that?"
"First, cost. How much does it cost to make soap from lard? Unless there is a low-priced oil as a substitute. But now maybe there is not.
Secondly, the only purpose of this earthen soap is to wash clothes and remove dirt. This is indeed very practical for ordinary people, but practicality and price cannot have both. The rich dislike its taste, and the poor dislike its price.
If there are not many raw materials and the price is cheap, soap can indeed achieve small profits but quick turnover.
But having said that, judging from the current situation, how much lard can be produced? How many do you need to make to get your money back?
Even if other fats and oils are replaced later, people these days are short of oil and water in their stomachs, and they don’t have much oil in their mouths, let alone how to make soap. "
Wei Meili hit the nail on the head, and Mei Berry was thoughtful after hearing this. She helped her mother peel the garlic and started chatting with the system in her heart:
[So, you have planned to give me this recipe, right? Homemade soaps don’t make money, so they just use prescriptions to make the heroine make a lot of money? 】
This time the system responded with silence again, but Mayberry did not give the system a chance to pretend to be dead.
She then asked, "Your system is really stupid. You want me to work two jobs with one reward?" Just let me check in, you still want me to help you correct the plot, right? 】
[Host, how can the act of increasing coolness be called correcting the plot? The rewards you get for checking in are related to your enjoyment. The more enjoyable the plot is, the more rewards you will get? 】
What the system said was so arrogant that Mei Berry almost died laughing after hearing this.
[For things like soap, of course, the most enjoyable mode is to invest in technical shares, and you will be divided into monthly shares~ So what does it mean to buy and sell in one go in the original article? 】
As the system spoke, Grandpa Mayberry looked at his phone.
[After a one-time transaction, there won’t be too much causality involved. How difficult is it to find a reliable partner who is really willing to take one’s shares to make money?
What if you get cheated? The heroine's deal is over in one fell swoop. As long as the money she gets is real, she will have other ways to make money in the future, so she's not afraid at all, right? 】
"Innovation" ability is the greatest wealth.
[If you can’t find someone reliable, you can’t find it. If the heroine is looking for her, how can you say she can’t find her? 】
Mayberry:? ? ?
[Besides, I’ll give you a chance to do business with the heroine, and you’ll make money. Why do you still doubt me when I give you a hidden benefit like this? 】
The system said aggrievedly, "The food is already in your mouth." Think about it, from now on, relying on soap, you can make money every month and every year...]
【You can pull it down! 】Mei Berry refused to draw the cake, 【make money every year? You still lied to me. Didn’t you say that there will be troubled times in the future? In troubled times, if it's not enough to save one's life, how can one still make money? 】
[Oh, host, you can’t say that. Is there anyone in these troubled times who can afford soap? 】
Hearing this, Mayberry clicked her tongue.
A secret "hate the rich" mentality quietly arises in my heart.
[What do you mean, "the wine and meat of the rich family stink, and the roads are frozen to death"? 】
In fact, Mayberry has already vaguely improved their soap, and it will soon become another popular luxury product for wealthy families.
But when she thought about the troubled times that followed, countless people lived a homeless life, but some people still used these soaps, Mei Berry felt inexplicably uncomfortable in her heart.
[In fact, this soap itself is a daily chemical product. It is affordable and can be used by ordinary people...]
Meiberry lowered her eyes, and after saying this to the system, she suddenly let out a self-deprecating laugh, laughing at her sudden sensibility.
At the moment, she should do the things at hand first, and the most important thing is to use soap to make a good profit with Mei You.
"Berry treasure, remember to give it to me when you've peeled the garlic."
When Mei Bei came to her senses, Wei Meili had already folded the beans and was looking at the garlic in her hand.
Meiberry looked down and realized that the garlic had been peeled into pits.
"ah……"
Guiltily putting the chopped garlic she had peeled into pieces into the vegetable basket, Meiberry smiled awkwardly at her mother, then changed the subject and asked, "What should we eat for lunch today?"
"Stir-fried beans with garlic, dried meat slices with bamboo shoots, and cold cucumbers, um... steamed multigrain rice. Cook the rice first, and wait until your dad comes back to cook the vegetables."
"Oh, by the way! Why hasn't my dad come back yet?"
Listening to her mother's words, Meiberry suddenly realized that it was already noon and her father hadn't come back yet.
"I heard from Mei You that my father went to his old house to pay his respects..."
Before Mei Bei finished speaking, Wei Meili could not hold back her laughter, and Mei Bei couldn't hold back her laughter either.
We are all a family, who doesn’t know who’s character?
Filial piety?
Well, her father's urinary nature, how could he not make her grandfather half angry to death, would be really annoying.
"But having said that, it does take a long time~ He won't really do anything to make him popular, right?"
After all, he is also his biological father. If something happens to him, their family will really be left with nothing to eat.
"How about we go take a look?"
Seeing the worried look on his mother's face, Mayberry's suggestion was quickly adopted.
Just as mother and daughter had just gone out, Mei Youqian came back right at this moment.
Compared to the past when he came back from the Mei family's old house, her father looked like a victorious cock, but today he looked exactly the opposite.
His face was dejected, as if the eggplant had been beaten by frost.
"what happened?"
When Mei Mei and Wei Meili saw this, they immediately took them home. Mei Youqian didn't say anything along the way, and he reflected on his performance during this period.
Is it because too much has gone smoothly, and his heart has swelled to the point where he already feels that he is invincible in the world on the road to excellence?
As a result, everything turned upside down today!
After Mei Youqian entered the room, he took the honeysuckle tea poured by his daughter and drank it in one gulp. After that, he still kept a stinky face and said nothing.
"Dad, what's wrong? Why do you look like this?"
Mayberry asked again, but all she got was an angry snort from her father, who still refused to speak.
"My daughter is asking you something, talk! Why are you pretending to be a turnip!"
As soon as the words fell, there was a snap.
Mei Berry saw her mother give her father a big blow.
Immediately, her father opened his mouth: "Well, it's that old man. He bought four fucking acres of land two days ago!"
Mei Youqian was so angry that he didn't even say father, but just said "that old man".
"What the fuck?" Mei Bei couldn't hold back and swore in front of his father.
Suddenly, both her parents looked towards her.
Plumberry: 0.0
"Um, um, where did she get the money?"
In order to prevent her sudden swearing from attracting further attention from her parents, Mayberry quickly changed her target.
"He said it was the money the boss earned from working outside."
After saying this, Mei Youqian couldn't help but sneer, "Boss, if you have this ability, the third child and I would have been exhausted to death because of the endless planting of fields in eight lifetimes! There is also the matter of our family traveling through time. ?”
Mayberry: "..."
Your angle is a bit tricky, Dad!
If there are too many fields, it may be possible to recruit people, but it will not tire people to death. .
"According to what you said, the land purchase money is the old man's and his own private money?" Wei Meili also put suspicion on old man Mei.
It's not like her mother-in-law knew that the family had extra money.
If I had known, I wouldn't have been able to do those ridiculous things before.
"Yes, in this case, wouldn't we have suffered a loss when we separated?" Mei Youqian slapped his thigh and said angrily, "Not only did we get less money, but we also gave them four more acres of land to plant! Ah, I have such a bad temper! No way! , I want to seek justice from the village chief!"
"What kind of justice are you asking for? Can you prove that it was his private money and not given by the boss?" Wei Meili grabbed her husband and asked him to calm down.
"It's not that I don't want to put out the fire. It used to be one acre per person, but now it's three acres per person... I don't even plant that much on my own land. Isn't this going to tire me out?"
Mei Youqian broke his defense!
God knows how happy he was when he rushed over to see old man Mei looking at him with a worried expression this morning!
As a result, this reversal was caught off guard!
He and the third child have settled this matter. Yesterday they noticed that there are still two acres of land left in the old house. If we go there today, it will be over soon.
What's the result now?
Damn, six acres of land in total!
Mei Youqian was angry and aggrieved.
Even Mei Sanma, who had always been good-tempered, became unusually angry when he returned.
When he mentioned this matter to Miao and the others, he was so suppressed that his face turned red.
"This money... Grandpa said it was given by your uncle?"
Mei You felt incredible when she heard this.
"It's said that my eldest brother earned it by working outside, but...does being a carpenter make that much money?"
Although Mei Sanma knew that he was not smart, he was not stupid. He had never seen his elder brother bring home a particularly large amount of money in the past.
Mei Sanma thought, and slowly expressed her thoughts: "I don't think the eldest brother can earn so much money. I'm afraid that money belongs to my father."
"Then when the family was separated, he hid a sum of money from the village chief?"
Meiyou immediately understood what her father meant.
However, the difficulty of this matter is that no one can prove who paid for these four acres of land.
Mei Sanma felt even more uncomfortable after hearing her daughter's words.
He and his second brother are going to make the most of their filial piety!
Puff, it doesn't matter, the deflation is temporary, hahaha, let me laugh for a while hahahahaha!
Mei Youqian: You are going too far!
