Bai Anyan nodded. In the past few years, whenever Fan Niang came up with something delicious and fun, she would always send a copy to the third grandmother's house and Aunt Song's house. He was used to it.
"Hey~, I'll send it off."
With ice, Baiyunxi had a good sleep.
When I woke up the next day, it was still a sunny day. Baiyunxi took a cattail leaf fan and Yaya, calling the dog, and went for a walk around the duck factory.
The weather was hot, so Shuren drove the ducks into the river to swim and eat water plants.
The little ducks that had just lost their yellow down were raised by Xiao Si in a duck pen to avoid direct sunlight. There were also a lot of vegetables on the ground, which not only cooled down the ducks but also allowed the ducks to peck at them.
"Mom, do you think I have taken good care of you?"
"Well, you can tell by looking at it that you put some thought into it."
Baiyunxi praised the duck shed without hesitation. The duck shed was very clean, the grass was fresh and tender, and there was no duck droppings in the yard. They were all swept together and piled outside to be used as farmyard manure.
This alone is worthy of praise.
Xiaosi took his wife around the duck factory, and when she saw the melted ice, her eyes lit up.
"By the way, Mom, look at the weather. It's hot. You don't know when it will rain. Let's forget about it in the countryside. People in the county will definitely have a hard time. Since you can make ice, how about we go to the county and make a fortune selling ice cubes?
?”
There are indeed benefits to reading more. Look at your mother's hidden skills. Every time you think of it, it comes out.
After listening to Xiao Si's suggestion, Bai Yunxi was stunned for a moment and shook his head.
"You think there is no ice cubes sold in the county? Not only that, but there are regular merchants. If we rush there, it will disrupt the balance of the county and be easily targeted."
During this period, there is a thread behind every business. Once the interests of others are affected, unlucky days are not far away.
Unless your background is particularly tough and people have to be afraid of you.
"This is easy to handle. Wouldn't it be possible to get Brother Xie to participate? He is the eldest son of the county magistrate, and no one in the entire county does not know him. With him as a shareholder, we will be safe and sound."
Xiao Si rubbed his hands, his eyes showing eagerness to try.
"Selling ice cubes only lasts for one season. Once we make a profit, we can withdraw immediately. Everything will be fine."
Bai Yunxi saw Xiao Si staring at her eagerly. It would be a good idea to hook up with Xie Yu, but that guy was as wealthy as the God of Wealth. He usually attended classes in the academy, so he would be interested in her small business?
Also, if she wants to get a share of the county's business, she must find out which merchant owns the ice-making business and who else is involved behind that person.
When developing business on other people's territory, you must know yourself and your enemy, otherwise it will be vulnerable groups like them that suffer in the end.
Moreover, Xiao Wu's current status as a scholar is not enough to protect his family. At the very least, he must be a scholar.
"Mom, how about we go to the county town and have a look. If it works, we can take the opportunity to make a profit. If it doesn't work, forget it."
Xiao Si looked at her mother deep in thought and couldn't help but urge her.
He is now thinking about the way of a businessman. Business opportunities are like fortune. They are fleeting and will be lost if they are not grasped.
Of course, making money is risky, but it shouldn't be fatal.
Baiyunxi came back to his senses, "Do you want to go to the county with me?"
"That's natural. I wouldn't worry about my mother going alone. Besides, you can get in touch with different businessmen in the county. I also want to gain some experience."
Xiaosi scratched his head and pointed at the duck factory in front of him.
"After winter comes, we can buy the first batch of ducks. I just ordered fifty ducks from a salty goods shop. I have to find customers for the rest. If I can take advantage of the ice sales,
If we have more opportunities to get to know more merchants, our ducks will be more marketable."
Seeing Xiaosi's serious attitude, Bai Yunxi couldn't help but curl her lips,
"We don't need you to find customers for our ducks. Mom has already thought of it for you, but I haven't told you yet. As long as things are done, your ducks will only be in short supply."
Xiaosi: "..."
What big move has your mother been holding back?
Isn't it okay for him to always be kept in the dark?
Bai Yunxi looked at the dumb look and smiled rudely, "You are already a gifted person because you are prepared for danger in times of peace. If you work hard, you will have a place in the business world in the future."
Although their family's main business is agriculture, their sideline business is raising poultry and livestock. If they have extra money, it would be logical to buy some shops to rent and run a few shops themselves in the meantime.
As long as Xiaowu is protecting him and Xiaosi is taking care of the household chores, the two of them will work together perfectly.
Listening to her mother's approval, Xiaosi almost floated up.
"Mom, do you really think I can do it?"
He has been the nuisance of the family since he was a child, and he is the first to cause trouble no matter what he does.
"Of course, you are smarter than the average person and your brain works faster. As long as you do something with your heart, you will definitely do it better than others."
It is precisely the motivated young man who will be more motivated with appropriate praise.
"Then let's go to the county to find Xie Yu tomorrow and ask him if he is willing to cooperate with us. I don't want to bear the child. If you can't trap this wolf, it won't be 50 or 50%."
Xiaosi stared at my mother with wide eyes, full of expectation.
Baiyun Xi looked up at the scorching sun and estimated that the temperature would be thirty-six or seven degrees. If he could seize this opportunity and make some money, it wouldn't be impossible.
Anyway, it’s just an excess. If selling ice cubes is hindered, you can also make a fuss about ice cubes, make smoothie bowls, and sell desserts.
A small snack for entertainment shouldn't touch anyone's cake, but it can save a lot of trouble, and the profit may not be less than ice cubes?
When an idea came to his mind, Bai Yunxi glanced at Xiaosi with bright eyes. Sure enough, the three cobblers were the equal of Zhuge Liang.
"Your suggestion is good. Let's go to the county town together tomorrow. But I don't want to disturb Xie Yu's studies, but there is a more suitable candidate than Xie Yu."
"Who?" Xiaosi looked confused. Who else is more intimidating than Xie Yu's identity?
"Xiaowu's teacher's wife, based on Dean Zhang alone, who wouldn't give her some face?" In addition, she is also a pleasant person of fifth grade. When walking in the college, which student would not respectfully call her "Master's Wife"?
All the reputable families in the county town have their children studying at Qingyu College. If Mrs. Xiaowu and Mrs. Wu work together to make a living and earn some money, no one will come forward to stop them.
Xiao Si blinked his eyes and patted his thigh for a while, "Mom, in your opinion, we really should find Aunt Zhang."
Although women rarely show up in public these days, occasionally a few people join in for fun and make money, and no one would refuse.
In the eyes of literati, the smell of copper can not only buy hairpins and silk flowers, but also a mansion for slaves.
Listening to Xiaosi's thoughts, Bai Yunxi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "Okay, I'll go back and make preparations. You should also explain the duck factory to Shuren, and come with me to the county tomorrow."
.”
"Hey~, I'll go get ready right now."
Xiaosi happily walked my mother to the gate, watched the people leave, then turned back to the duck factory and started busy.
