Peasant girl who traveled through time: I brought an earth with me

Chapter 39 Wintersweet Balm
A bag of lotion costs one penny, and one bag can be divided into five wooden boxes. If she filled fifty wooden boxes, she used ten bags of lotion, which cost ten cents.

Wintersweet ointment and lard oil cost 66 cents. Six baskets of wintersweet flowers were used, which was [-] cents. Excluding her labor costs, the total was [-] cents.

She has not found any similar products like balm on the market yet, so she can only refer to the rouge gouache for pricing.

The price of the most common rouge and gouache is [-] cents per box.

So, two hundred boxes is four thousand coins!
It’s not that I don’t know, it’s a shock!

Zhong Chuchu was shocked by this number. If it were sold at this price, it would be a profit of more than 40 times.

Moreover, the lotion is a completely cost-free business. In addition, the production cycle of the balm is short and the process is not complicated. Only she knows the alum used to refine the base oil, and she is not afraid of others copying it. It is simply a long-term business with huge profits.

Thinking about the flowers in Blue Star all year round, you can make balm with other flavors. In this way, it will be possible to make this business bigger and stronger in the future!

And there are perfumes and other things in her mall, which the woman doesn't like.

Thinking of this, Zhong Chuchu couldn't help but smile up to the sky.

After laughing for a while, Zhong Chuchu calmed down. As for the lotion she took out, she still separated the price from the balm. Fortunately, the boxes sent by Mo Yu were divided into several styles. Although the appearance was the same, some of them had the same price. There are some faint carvings.

Although the carving is shallow, there is still a big difference in the touch and the light.

These fifty boxes of lotion are made of boxes with some kind of pattern faintly engraved on them.

She looked at it carefully for a long time, but she really didn't recognize the variety of flowers on it. Maybe it was unique to this world.

These dozens of boxes will take the high-end route, and the price is yet to be determined.

It was still early today, so she planned to take some first to explore the market conditions.

I don't know how much time I will be delayed when I go out. For the sake of safety, I still send Dabao and Xiaobao to the old house.

When she led her child out, she also took the pork she bought last time with her.

When I bought it, I wanted to use it to make stuffing for steamed buns, but I didn't expect that there was no shortage of food in the past few days, so this piece of meat has never been touched.

To prevent it from breaking, she kept it inside the bracelet.

Let the two children take her to the old house today. Even if she doesn't come back at noon, the two children can still make some food.

She carried the basket and walked to the old house. When she passed Zhao's house, she saw that the red lanterns and red wedding couplets at the door had been taken off.

The courtyard was deserted and no one was seen.

She let out a long sigh, feeling quite sorry for this girl Zhao Mei.

He led the child to the door of the Lin family's old house. The door was unlocked today, and Mrs. Lin was feeding chickens in the yard.

"Why are you here?" Old Mrs. Lin put the grass in her hand on the ground with a straight face.

Seeing two children appear one after another from behind Zhong Chuchu, his face immediately changed, and his old face smiled so hard that his eyes were missing.

"Oh, grandma's weird grandson, you are finally here." Mrs. Lin said as she quickly wiped her hands on her apron again and again.

After a few steps, he walked to the door, holding one hand and leading the two children into the house.

Zhong Chuchu smiled helplessly: "Mom, I'm going out to sell some things today, and I want you to look after Dabao and Xiaobao for a while."

As she spoke, she handed over the pork she brought.

It’s actually pork!
Mrs. Lin narrowed her eyes and looked her up and down. Did she really make money in business?

She didn't believe Zhong Chuchu when she said she was running a small business. She had been her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for so many years, and she already knew exactly what kind of person she was.

But a few days ago, when the eldest daughter-in-law went out, she heard that Mrs. Zhong paid for someone to farm the land for her. She also heard that the fruits picked from the mountains were sold for a lot of money.

The eldest daughter-in-law complained at home at that time, saying that she was rebellious and that she didn't even think about her family when she was working to make money.She was dubious at the time, but now it seems true.

She didn't care about the money she earned. As long as she could raise her two children well and not reach out to the old house, she would be thankful.

"Put the children here, and I'll make stew for them at noon." Old Mrs. Lin's tone softened unconsciously.

As soon as he finished speaking, Mrs. Liu's voice came over: "Juan'er, what are you still doing? Why don't you bring the meat in quickly? Your brother wants to eat meat."

The old lady frowned, but she didn't scold him.

Seeing that her grandma didn't stop her, Juaner lowered her head and took the meat from Zhong Chuchu's hand with a red face.

"Thank you, Third Aunt." She said timidly, her voice as low as a mosquito.

Zhong Chuchu took everything in sight. She didn't say anything, she just told the two children to be obedient, and then left with the basket.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Today is not a market day in the town, and the vendors on both sides of the street are not around, but it is quite leisurely.

Only the shops on both sides of the road were open, and there were only a few people inside.

She walked straight to Jinglai Grocery Store, planning to discuss cooperation with the store manager Zheng.

Although it's a grocery store, most of the people who come here are women, so I think they can sell some ointments.

When they arrived at Jinglai Grocery Store, Wang Xiaoqiao enthusiastically led her to sit down, and politely poured her a cup of tea before going to the backyard to call her mother.

Zhong Chuchu didn't know why this girl suddenly became so enthusiastic, and thought she had met a happy event from above today.

Little did she know that shopkeeper Zheng had already said hello to her and wanted to make friends with her.

"Hi, it's Mrs. Zhong. You haven't been here for a while, but you're here to deliver fruits and vegetables today?" Shopkeeper Zheng arrived before he could.

The vegetables and fruits that Zhong Chuchu brought over last time were very popular. She was originally worried that she would not be able to buy them at a reasonable price, but she did not expect that the supply exceeded demand.

Zhong Chuchu stood up and said, "Shopkeeper Zheng, you are fine."

Shopkeeper Zheng smiled and said, "You're welcome. Let's sit down and talk."

The two sat down together.

Zhong Chuchu didn't waste any time and went straight to the point, taking out a box of wintersweet ointment from the basket and placing it on the table.

"Huh? This is it?" Shopkeeper Zheng asked doubtfully.

"This is a balm made from wintersweet flowers." Zhong Chuchu explained.

"What's the use? This is a grocery store." She didn't understand what this thing had to do with her.

Zhong Chuchu smiled and shook her head, looking disapproving.

"Shopkeeper Zheng, do most of your grocery stores have female customers?"

"Yes, but what does this have to do with your balm?"

Zhong Chuchu smiled and said nothing, just picked up the box on the table and opened the lid.

Immediately, a strong fragrance wafted out. The fragrance was penetrating, gorgeous but not vulgar. It made people feel relaxed and happy at first smell.

"The fragrance of wintersweet balm is exactly the same as that of wintersweet flowers, even more intense. This thing's function is somewhat similar to a sachet, but it is more precious than it. You only need to apply a little of this product on the wrist, and it can last for at least three hours. The scent.”
