Yang Lina woke up from a dream and almost forgot that she was half Sichuanese. Making tofu was just trivial.
Despite her young age, she was the sole heir of the An family before time travel. She was proficient in six languages before she was ten years old. She traveled to various shopping malls and banquets at the age of twelve. She founded her own clothing brand at the age of sixteen. She had tens of millions of fans at the age of eighteen.
Become an Internet celebrity that major websites compete to sign contracts with.
I have only been here for a few days, and I almost forgot about my old profession and what I am good at.
Just do what you say, making tofu is not easy, it is just a little hard work.
We have soybeans and everything at home, all we need to do is buy two big pots and two meters of white cloth.
With ideas in mind, Yang Lina acted faster.
After buying the things, I hurried home.
On the way back, she had already thought about it. The original owner usually offended everyone, so it would be a bit difficult to start a business.
She decided not to sell the first pot of tofu after it was cooked, but to give it all to the villagers.
There are fifty or sixty households in the village. If one family gives half a catty as a gift, they still have to make thirty catties of tofu.
One pound of soybeans makes three pounds of tofu. One pound of soybeans costs 10 cents, and one pound of tofu costs 30 cents. After deducting the cost, the profit will be doubled eight or nine times.
Such a good business, why didn't I think of it earlier? God help me.
Thinking that she could make a lot of money in the next half year, Yang Lina felt wind on her feet and returned home in twenty minutes.
At the door, I happened to meet Li Jingming who was going home from the fields.
Yang Lina's flushed face was covered with sweat. When she saw Li Jingming opening the door, she paused and panted.
As soon as Li Jingming raised his hand, the basin in Yang Lina's hand was taken away by him.
Yang Lina's heart beat faster and she warned herself that she must hold back, otherwise it would be bad if she got emotional.
The two entered the room silently. Yang Lina wiped her face with a towel, poured a bowl of water for each of them, and then planned to talk about making tofu.
"I have something to say."
"I have something to say."
The two said in unison, breaking the silence in the room at the same time.
"You speak first."
Yang Lina said with a silly smile.
"You speak first."
If you know how to be humble, you will indeed make progress.
This is Li Jingming's most positive evaluation of Yang Lina from the bottom of his heart these past few days.
"Okay then. Here's the thing, I originally wanted to find a job to support myself, but I went to the market today and couldn't find any work.
But I decided to start a tofu business, so I want to borrow a bag of soybeans from you first. I can write an IOU and pay you back when I make money."
She wants to find a way to support herself?
Li Jingming was a little shocked. A woman who usually eats well and is lazy now wants to find a job to support herself.
A second ago, he thought that he must want money. When he heard that people were looking for jobs and wanted to support themselves, he felt a little contempt for himself.
It seems that you can never underestimate a person who wants to change himself.
Yang Lina was exuding energy at this time, which made Li Jingming see himself when he entered the factory at the age of seventeen.
At the beginning, he also held out hope, thinking that he could do something big in the future, and his eyes lit up.
The person in front of me has bright eyes and exudes confidence.
This alone is worthy of praise.
"You can use it if you want. Anyway, this year's soybean seedlings have grown taller, so they probably won't be sold."
After getting Li Jingming's permission, my worries were finally settled.
I originally thought about writing him an IOU, but I didn't expect to get it done directly without spending any money.
You don’t have much money anyway, so don’t act like a gentleman when faced with difficulties.
Make soybeans into tofu and make money by yourself, why not?
But when the time comes when she makes money, she will still give him soy money.
"What about you, what's the matter?"
Yang Lina knew that usually he would not take the initiative to speak out about things that had nothing to do with her. Today's attitude was so serious, it must have something to do with her.
"Zhang Kaikai has come back from the mines. I heard there is a lot of money there, so I want to follow him and give it a try."
Go to the mines?
How does this work?
His legs and feet are inconvenient, and he can't exert too much force, and accidents often happen in the mines. If something happens, he won't be able to escape even if he wants to.
Also, how can she live alone in such a big house?
"You...you have bad legs, and accidents happen often in the mines, so you'd better not go there."
Yang Lina wants to say that nothing is more important than people's health and safety.
If you don’t have money, you can earn it slowly.
"Jingxuan will go to college in the next half year, and I said I have to bear half of the tuition. Besides, there's not much work to do in the fields recently."
Yes, it turned out to be because of his sister.
Yang Lina was a little disappointed and felt strange.
Anyway, they agreed to separate in the next half year. Before that, it would be fine if they lived their own lives and had nothing to do with each other.
"Well, now that you've decided, it's up to you."
Li Jingming had the illusion that he saw a little loss in Yang Lina's eyes, but he just thought he was wrong.
"Then when are you leaving?"
Yang Lina suddenly thought of something, and looked up at Li Jingming with a pair of clear eyes.
"tomorrow morning."
"So fast, you don't even have a decent set of clothes."
"You go to the mines to do dirty work, and just wear old clothes."
After Li Jingming finished speaking, Yang Lina felt the same way. Anyway, she was dressed cleanly, but when she went to the cave, she was as dirty as a clay doll when she came out.
"I'll make corn tortillas tonight, and you can take some with you when you leave tomorrow."
Without waiting for Li Jingming to speak, Yang Lina rolled up her sleeves, washed her hands, and kneaded the noodles, as if making tofu no longer made her happy.
Yang Lina can do anything, but she has been alone in the dark since she was a child, so she is afraid of being alone at night.
His father had various drinking parties and various entertainment events every night. Even if there were servants at home, she would be huddled in the corner by herself.
Yang Lina thought, she would be scared if he left, should she tell him?
Forget it, how could he believe it.
Yang Lina smiled self-deprecatingly and got busy cooking.
That night, the two of them didn't speak much.
Yang Lina suffered from insomnia, and when she woke up the next day, Li Jingming was no longer in the room.
That's all, being alone is fine.
Everything returns to the days of being alone.
Yang Lina put the soaked soybeans last night into the bucket, locked the door and walked towards the big locust tree in the center of the village.
There is a stone mill there for the use of the whole village. It is also a place where the villagers gather together to chat and blow shells when they have nothing to do.
When Yang Lina went there, the sun was hanging above her head and it was warm.
She carefully cleaned the stone mill, put the soaked soybeans in, and then pushed the stone mill around and around.
Halfway through grinding, Liu Cui walked over with a handful of melon seeds in her hand.
"Hey, Sister Yang, what are you doing grinding soybeans this early in the morning?"
"Make tofu."
Yang Lina was not afraid of offending her, knowing that Liu Cui's mouth was notoriously vicious in the village.
Whoever she thinks is good will be praised to the heavens.
If she thinks someone is bad, she will treat him like a pig or a dog.
Now that you have decided to do business, don't offend her.
"Hey, I really didn't realize that you can also make tofu. I thought you usually only eat and sleep. You eat when you sleep."
Liu Cui sat down on a stone bench nearby, crossed her legs, and kept spitting melon seed peels on the ground.
