Rebirth 1980: Marrying my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Chapter 239 The idea of ​​catering
In the dead of night, in the west room of the Li family!
On the small fire bed, Tang Xue and Li Yi cuddled tightly together, caring and intimate!

At this time, the two of them had put on thick quilts.

It is already very cold in Saibei Province in mid-October, especially in the second half of the night, and the thin quilt can no longer hold it.

Naturally, Li Yi couldn't hide such a big thing as leading the villagers to raise cattle and sheep from Tang Xue. Besides, Tang Xue also lived in the village, so this kind of thing couldn't be hidden at all.

So just after returning from Feng's house, Li Yi told Tang Xue, his mother, and his third sister about this.

Although Tang Xue didn't say anything at the time, Li Yi could still see that she had some doubts in her heart. Maybe she was concerned about her own face and was too embarrassed to tell him in front of her parents.

Therefore, Li Yi decided to ask her after going to bed to see what his wife thought!
"Xiaoxue, do you disagree with me paying to buy cattle and sheep for the village?" Li Yi asked straight to the point.

She is my wife anyway, so there is no need to go through so many twists and turns.

Tang Xue was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "It's not that I disagree, it's just that your promise this time is a bit too big!"

"There are so many people in the village. Even if each person earns 50 yuan more, it will still be tens of thousands of yuan. How many cattle and sheep will this cost? The most important thing is that you need to bear all these risks alone."

Then Tang Xue explained: "I don't object to you helping the fellow villagers, but I hope you will do what you can when helping others, and also think more about our three mothers!"

Li Yi nodded and said: "I understand what you mean, but this matter is crucial to what we are going to do next, so we have to do it!"

"What to do next?" Tang Xue asked curiously.

"Yes, I'm going to the capital in two days. My plan is to do catering!" Li Yi said.

"Catering, selling cold noodles?"

Li Yi laughed out loud instantly, and then said: "The catering range is so large, you just remember to sell cold skin!"

Tang Xue's face turned red and she said with some embarrassment: "Don't laugh, I just said it casually!"

"Well, don't laugh!"

Then Li Yi continued: "Because the capital only allows catering and small commodity trade this time, either opening a restaurant, or opening a grocery store or canteen. In comparison, I think opening a restaurant is still a good choice!"

"Do we have a cook to open a restaurant?"

"Why do you need a cook to open a restaurant?" Li Yi said with a smile.

"How can we open a restaurant without a cook?" Tang Xue asked.

"Haha, if you think about it carefully, do we need a cook for the ice-cooked lamb and barbecue we had at the state-owned hotel?"

Tang Xue was stunned, and then said: "Do you want to open an ice-cooked sheep or barbecue restaurant in the capital?"

"No, I want to have a barbecue and shabu-shabu!"

"Barbecue and hotpot all in one?"

"Well, I can not only grill meat, but also cook mutton. If you want to eat that, eat that!" Li Yi said.

"Can this work?"

"Technically there is no problem, but there is a problem with the meat supply!"

"What's the problem?"

"The supply of meat in the capital is limited. Not only is the price high, but tickets are also required. If we open a restaurant, we will consume too much meat every day, and high-priced meat will definitely not work!"

"what is it now?"

"My idea is that we raise our own cattle and sheep and slaughter them ourselves!" Li Yi said.

"But, how can we transport it to the capital so far away? One trip may not even cover the freight. Besides, do they want us to transport cattle and sheep to the capital?"

Li Yi smiled and said: "You can rest assured, I will take care of it, but now we have to consider a long-term supply issue, so I thought of asking the folks to help me raise cattle and sheep, and I will be responsible for sales in the capital." , this is a win-win situation, and we will make more profits!" "Is this really true?"

"Well, when have I ever lied to you?" Li Yi said.

"Okay, but you must do what you can, don't show off, we are not the savior!" Tang Xueyao said.

"Row!"

Then Li Yi asked again: "By the way, I've almost finished drying the new house and cleaned it up. Do you want to live in the new house after I leave?"

"Am I alone?"

"How can you do it alone? I'll ask Third Sister to accompany you!" Li Yi said.

"It's just us two girls, so I'm still a little scared. Besides, it's not very convenient to get water there, so let's forget it!" Tang Xueyao said.

"That's okay. Anyway, your parents will take care of you here, so I can rest assured!" Li Yi said.

"Ok!"

"Go to sleep!"

Li Yi got up early the next morning, and then carried a bucket to the well at the east end of the village to fetch water.

Usually this kind of thing is done by his father, but after Li Yi is free, this job is his.

There were many people drawing water by the well. When they saw Li Yi coming, everyone gave way and let him draw first.

Although Li Yi had a poor reputation in the village before, after this summer, he successfully changed his image in the hearts of the villagers.

On the one hand, everyone has made a lot of money following him in the past two months. An average family has at least 200 yuan, and some have 300 yuan.

For families like Shitou, Qiangzi, and Dongzi, the price is at least 800 yuan.

Not to mention, because of Li Yi, the big boss of Gangcheng invested [-] yuan to build a school in the village, so much so that the central school in the town had to move to Nianzishan Village.

For the people in the village, this is really a great benefit for the future!
Therefore, everyone looks down upon Li Yi from the bottom of their hearts.

"Xiao Yi, I'm here to carry water for your father. Come here quickly and I'll bring it to you!"

Seeing that it was Dongzi's father, Li Yi was not polite and immediately carried two large iron buckets from home.

"Uncle Lei Zi, aren't you busy today? I haven't seen you at work?" Li Yi asked with a smile.

"How can we not be busy? Party Secretary Feng asked everyone to go to the production team for a meeting at nine o'clock, so we have no choice but to have free time in the morning!"

Hearing this, Li Yi knew that Uncle Feng must be discussing raising cattle and sheep with the villagers. After all, this involves the interests of all members of the village, and three or two village cadres dare not make a decision.

At this moment, Liu Dalei suddenly asked: "By the way, Xiaoyi, I heard from Dongzi that you want to take a few of them to the capital. Is this true?"

"Yes, the mushroom business can't be done, so I want to take them to the capital for a walk. If there is a chance, I will make some money. If there is no chance, just go out and gain experience!" Li Yi replied.

He didn't talk about opening a restaurant. Now is not the time.

"Okay, take Dongzi with you when you leave!" Liu Dalei said.

"Uncle Lei Zi, aren't you afraid that I will lose the thing?"

"Hahaha, compared to this, I'm afraid he will be like me and stay in this mountain nook for the rest of his life!"

"Okay, I remember this!"

Afterwards, Li Yi walked home carrying a large iron bucket filled with water!
