Happy Little Scholar

In this world, the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th every year is still one of the most important festivals.

The Mid-Autumn Festival, which symbolizes reunion, is a more sensitive day for Li Yi, and it is easy to evoke some dusty memories in his heart.

But now he has learned to hide those emotions in his heart and will not be easily seen by others.

Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival that Xiaohuan has been looking forward to for a long time. For a simple-minded girl, every festival will be expected a long time ago. After Li Yi taught her arithmetic, the little maid would count the days on her fingers.

Today, Lao Fang and his friends did not go to the street to sell candied haws. During festive festivals, they always have to take a holiday to relax.

When the family was poor in the past, every festival, they would eat a meal of porridge with a handful of rice grains, which was considered a festival.

Now there are a lot of silver money coming in every day, even if they eat rice and meat every day, there is no psychological pressure.

The economic base determines the superstructure. When the family is well off, the pursuit will naturally be high. When Lao Fang and his family came back from outside yesterday, they had already bought wine, meat and other things to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival celebration.

Li Yi looked at the things they sent yesterday and actually saw mooncakes in it. They were called mooncakes, but they were actually dough with stuffing. After picking one up and tasting it, Li Yi suddenly missed the taste of five-nut mooncakes in the future.

Walking on the wide streets of Qing'an Prefecture City with Xiaohuan, the little maid blinked her curious eyes and looked around, thinking that everything she saw was so strange, but Li Yi was thinking about other things in his heart.

In the past few days, he has tried all kinds of methods to improve the equipment for distilling alcohol, and has also made great improvements to the formula of floral water. It will be officially produced soon.

Floral water is different from candied haws. Li Yi's initial positioning for it is to take the high-end route. After all, the cost of distilling alcohol is not small. It takes several jars of wine to make a small bottle of floral water. If the price is set too low, Li Yi will lose money if he doesn't sell a few bottles.

This brings up a new problem.

Since it was decided that the floral water would appear in a high-end image from the beginning, it naturally could not be sold like candied haws. Li Yi imagined that Lao Fang was selling two bottles of floral water on the street, grabbing a passerby and saying mysteriously, "Brother, do you need Ruyi Lu?"

This situation, no matter how you think about it, feels like selling porn or Indian magic oil.

Obviously, the roadside stall is far from meeting the requirements of high-end. If you want to do the floral water business for a long time, you may have to add strong liquor, perfume and soap in the future. It is essential to have your own store in the city.

However, it is no less difficult to rent a store in the prosperous area of ​​Qing'an City than to open a store in the commercial street of a first-tier city in the future. Just one year's rent is a sky-high price for some people.

Li Yi specifically inquired about it. Even if you don't buy a shop in the most prosperous place in the city, the annual rent will be 70 or 80 taels of silver. If you buy a shop and renovate it a little, it will cost at least 100 taels of silver.

This is a very embarrassing thing for Li Yi at the moment.

His entire fortune is only one hundred taels of silver. If he rents a shop, he will not have the money to buy wine and materials for making toilet water. But if he does not rent it------without a shop, how can he sell toilet water?

These problems are naturally not considered by Lao Fang and others. If Li Yi does not say it, he is afraid that he will sell toilet water like candied haws. Anyway, in his eyes, these two are treasures that can make money, and there is no big difference.

Money matters cannot be rushed for a while, and he will find a way to solve it after returning.

Xiaohuan hugged the two pieces of cloth bought by her son-in-law for new clothes. Her eyes curved into crescents, and her little face was full of joy.

In the past, the family had no spare money to buy cloth. Most of the clothes Xiaohuan wore were retired by Liu Ruyi.

Liu Ruyi's figure is very tall, and Xiaohuan can't wear her clothes at all. Liu Ruyi is a little taller than Xiaohuan, but not too much. Xiaohuan can wear her clothes with a little modification.

Except for those wealthy families, most ordinary families are like this, taking turns to wear a piece of clothing. Li Yi saw that Xiaohuan's clothes were all patched, so he specially brought her out today.

At this time, there were still no ready-made clothing stores. If you want to make clothes, you either buy a few pieces of cloth and make them yourself, or find a special tailor to make them. Of course, the price of the latter will be a little higher. Generally, poor families will choose the first way to make clothes.

After learning about these things, Li Yi was slightly tempted.

If he opened a ready-made clothing store here, would he make a fortune?

Of course, he can only think about it at present. At present, he has a lot of things to do, and he has no energy to take care of more things.

When it was almost noon, Xiaohuan and I found a roadside stall to eat something. Not to mention, although the roadside food didn't look so high-end, it tasted good and the price was very cheap.

It is different from the later times. When eating at roadside stalls, you don’t have to worry about gutter oil or anything like that. You can eat with absolute peace of mind. I don’t know if it’s because of his appearance, but the stall owner gave Li Yixian and Xiao Huan more noodles in their bowls than the other customers next to him.

This made him feel a little relieved. After all, he never thought that one day he would be able to take advantage of his appearance.

After dinner, I walked around the street for a while and bought some things. Because it was close to the Mid-Autumn Festival, there were many more people on the street than usual.

I have to say that the quality of beauties in ancient times was really good. In this era where double eyelids, nose pads and chin shavings are not allowed, all beauties are pure natural, with light makeup. Li Yi saw a lot of them along the way. If they were placed in the future, they could support a costume drama alone without changing clothes.

Of course, my little maid is also a little beauty. Although she is a little young and her face has a little baby fat, she will definitely be a beauty in a few years.

Li Yi is much more resistant to beauties now than in his previous life.

The three beauties at home were always in front of him, which directly led to a significant increase in Li Yi's immunity to beauties. Even if he met a beautiful one on the street, he would just glance at her with appreciation and then look at... other beauties...

When passing by a certain place on the street, he saw a group of people gathered there, making a lot of noise and not knowing what they were doing. Li Yi didn't want to watch the fun, but Xiaohuan looked in that direction curiously, but when she saw Li Yi walking straight past, she quickly retracted her sight and quickly followed.

"You are willing to take out a hundred taels of silver..."

"This is a bit too generous..."

...

When passing by the edge of the crowd, two voices of conversation reached his ears, causing Li Yi to stop suddenly.

[ps: After class in the evening, I have been typing until now. There is still some time before twelve o'clock, so why not talk about something else.

Let me first talk about the update situation. Because the author is a graduate student of engineering, he is still a bit busy with classes. There is not much time left for writing, and he wants to ensure the quality of writing, so he can only update as much as possible. Of course, for the sake of the book's performance, he will still try to update more. Under the premise of continuous updating, he will try to update twice a day.

In addition, the performance of this book is actually very average among the new books of the same period on Qidian, but surprisingly, the performance on a certain artifact is far ahead of Qidian. As an author, I hope those readers can come to Qidian to support it, just a collection will be enough...

Although it is the first time to write a historical type, this book has been conceived in my mind for a long time before writing it. The reason why I chose to be fictional... As an engineering student, everyone knows that I am still a white in history, but if the first few dozen chapters attract you, then the rest should not be too bad, because this style will continue.

I wanted to say something else, but the lights in the dormitory are about to go out, so let's stop here...】
