The lucky girl in the village has a good way of making money.

Chapter 176 Shangyuan Lantern Festival
On the morning of the 15th, the Shiliu family, except for Li Rongzhang who was in school, including Mr. Li's father, Mr. Yuan and Sanni, plus Li Jizu and Li Jizhong, drove four cars into the city.

The bullock cart driven by Li Jizhong pulled up the shelves and a signboard made by the carpentry workshop.

Shiliu made an agreement with Li Jizhong. From now on, the work of delivering goods to the city will be left to their father and son. He can take Li Ronghuai or Li Rongshan. In short, he will have a companion and someone to look after him on the road. One drop per month. wages, plus thirty cash for food and drinks for each delivery.

Li Jizu also drove an ox cart belonging to Shiliu's family to pull the goods.

The other two mule carts were pulling people, one was driven by Li Rongzong, and the other was driven by Li Rongyu. Li Jihe was sitting by the door to assist him. He had just learned how to drive the cart in the past few days, so it was impossible not to keep an eye on it.

The shop found Old Man Song to find out the auspicious date for its opening, and decided to officially open on the 11th tomorrow. They went there today, just in time to watch the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival tonight.

After living for most of his life, this is the first time that Mr. Li and Mr. Yuan have come back to the city to watch the lantern festival, and it is the first time that Mr. Yuan has gone back to the city.

Both of them were very happy originally, but under this happiness, there was also a trace of unspeakable sadness, so they didn't mention it.

Along the way to the official road and past the strong wind, we met more and more people on the road. When we got closer to Luoshui City, there were even more people. These were all rushing into the city to watch the lantern show tonight.

The Lantern Festival Lantern Festival is the most lively time in Luoshui City at the beginning of the year. People from all over the country, whether they are near or far from the city, will come to the city to join in the fun. Now Luoshui City will also be open all night long at night. There is no curfew, and a side door will be left open at the city gate for people to leave the city at any time after watching the lantern festival.

Of course, only people from the villages near the city gate would rush home after watching the lantern festival, while those further away would find accommodation in the city.

They lined up to enter the city gate and went straight to Lingshui Street.

Li Jihe and the others saw their shop for the first time. They saw that the area was lively, and they turned right to the market. The location of the shop was also good, so they couldn't help but nodded and said to Shiliu: "Your adoptive father is interested, you can get this love." Make a note of it and honor your adoptive father well in the future.”

Pomegranate nodded in agreement, that's for sure.

At that moment, I let my father and grandma go inside to rest first, while they were busy unloading the goods and setting up the shop.

After they were placed, Pomegranate and Li Rongzong took the signs and headed to the street.

At the corner of the street, there was a failed old scholar who set up a stall to write letters for others and sell some calligraphy and paintings. He spent a hundred pence and asked the old scholar to help write the words "Xiahe Village Liji Specialty Shop" on the sign. A big character.

This is the name of the shop.

The old scholar is used to making a living by writing signboards for others. After writing the signboards, he does not forget to solicit business.

"Sir, you have to write the water sign for me."

The water tag is also a price list. Pomegranate heard that he could write it down, so he nodded, "I want it!"

The scholar held out a stack of red paper on which he and others wrote Spring Festival couplets and said: "The red paper contains sixty characters, and the pen has forty characters."

Pomegranate nodded and took another bunch of money and handed it over without hesitation.

Li Rongzong, on the other hand, was secretly stunned. Being able to read and write now is really beneficial. He could set up a stall on the street and help write things for people. He could earn two hundred dollars in a short time. Even if he had several customers a day, he could still make money. How much did it cost?

What he didn't know was that he was an old scholar who could usually read and write. For such a large amount of money, not many people came to him. The scholar collected the money and asked Pomegranate to dictate and write on the red paper:
"Lee's Specialty Shop
Today's price
One catty of pork floss costs 200 coins, and one tael costs 20 coins.
One catty of dried pork costs three hundred cents, and one tael and thirty cents
Three pieces of salted egg yolk

One jar of salted egg yolk sauce is worth two hundred words, and one jar is worth twenty-one words."

The old scholar started writing smoothly and smoothly. When he was done writing, he couldn't help but be curious, "Where is your shop? How long did it take to open it?"

Pomegranate smiled and told him the location and that it would be opening tomorrow, and asked him to come and support it when he had time. If it was convenient, he would also help promote it to the neighbors.

Seeing her sweet mouth, the old scholar couldn't help but agree, saying that he would definitely go over and have a look when he was free tomorrow. He had never heard of this kind of dried meat floss, but he had to go and have a look.

She was looking for someone to write a sign to advertise her shop, and Pomegranate was in a good mood.

When I returned to the shop, I didn't rush to hang up the sign. I found some glue and stuck it on the front wall.

Li Xiangli and Mrs. Song quickly swept and wiped the shop again and again. The whole shop looked bright and bright, just waiting for it to be opened tomorrow.

Of course, lunch was cooked in the shop's kitchen. I had some free time in the car this time, and I also brought some vegetables from my garden. I grew vegetables at home, and there were plenty of vegetables to buy in the village, so I didn't have to go to the city. Shopping for groceries.

After eating, Shiliu took Father Li and the others for a walk on the street, and on the way, they found an inn that was closer to the shop and booked two rooms.

There are only two beds in the shop. Even if it is a floor bunk, there are not enough quilts. It is still cold now, so I don't dare to pay attention to it. It is rare for me to go back to the city, and Pomegranate also lets my grandparents stay in an inn.

On the other hand, a room in any inn costs seventy or eighty coppers per night. Because today is a special day, twenty coppers is more expensive than usual, which is not cheap.

Shiliu thought that after the shop opened and stabilized, she asked Jin Yao, whom her adoptive father had told her, about looking at a house. If there was a house with a suitable price and beautiful appearance, she could buy one and have a place to rest when she came to the city. .

But just as the inn was about to be booked, servants from the Ding family hurried over, saying that Wang knew that they all came to the city today and asked them to stay at home.

Shiliu refused. There were so many of them and it was inconvenient to go to Ding's house. Besides, Xing'er had to be busy with opening business early in the morning.

Even then, we booked two rooms.

Dinner was cooked early. Except for Li Jihe, who was not allowed to go out to crowd because of his health, everyone else went out and went to the market where the most lively lantern festival was tonight.

Sanni let Li Jizhong hug her tightly. Li Rongzong and Li Rongyu also protected Old Yuan and Song. When they left Lingshui Street, the street was extremely crowded. There were so many people all the way. At the lantern festival, it will be dark, and lanterns are hung everywhere, bright as day and beautiful.

There were many government officials on the street to maintain order. Some people almost got squeezed and fell due to the crowd, but the government officials immediately came over to mediate.

You don't have to worry about any accidents when you go shopping in the lantern market like this.

It was the first time for the Song family and others to come here. They were dazzled by the excitement and novelty, but it opened their eyes.

Until late at night, thinking about the opening tomorrow, and Lao Yuan and the others were tired from walking, the group turned around and went back while shopping.

After returning to the shop, those who should be in the shop were in the shop, and those who were going to the inn went to the inn. They all took a rest early and did not delay opening the shop early tomorrow morning.
