Transmigration: The Peasant Makeup Artist

Not long after Li Mo returned home, Yang Lanhua and Li Xiaofeng came.

Last time they both took a box of balm and sold them. They sold it for 5 cents, and each earned a cent. Although not a cent, it was a net profit. They did everything. If I didn't do it, I just moved my mouth and got it. Is there something simpler than this.

Now both of them saw the viability of this business, and immediately decided to come to Li Mo again to get a few boxes and go to her family’s for publicity. This big box of 5 cents is so big that many people in her family’s family are willing to buy it. People in the natal village will also want to buy.

Li Mo took out the two newly made balsams. The two saw that they still smelled of chrysanthemums. They picked them up and smelled them and liked them very much. After thinking about them, one person took two boxes of rose incense and two boxes of chrysanthemum incense.

While it was fine in the afternoon, Li Mo found the vegetable seeds he bought in the town last time.

There has been no food at home. Occasionally, Zhao’s family picked it from the vegetable garden and gave it to their family. Li Mo had long wanted to get a vegetable garden to grow a la carte. However, things have continued since I bought it. Take time to plant.

Song Dashan took an axe and went to the bamboo forest to chop a lot of bamboo back. Then he inserted bamboos into the ground and made a large circle at the back of the house. Then he wrapped the bamboo with hemp rope to form a circle. A garden was created, and then surrounded by the thorns on the outermost side, ordinary people or animals could not get in, so the vegetable garden would be fine.

Next, Song Dashan divided the land in the vegetable garden into several pieces, leaving a small path between the pieces, and hoeing the other places with a hoe, and then pouring it with big dung, so that the land can be made It is fertile and can grow quickly after planting vegetable seeds.

Li Mo and Song Dashan spent a few days arranging the vegetable plots, then planted all the vegetable seeds they bought, and then waited for the seeds to germinate.

Looking at the vegetable garden he had put together, Li Mo felt that his family was thriving.

At this time, Li Mo accidentally heard Song Dashan talk about it. A few days later, it would be the biggest annual temple fair here.

People here hold a temple fair on April 4th every year. The venue of the temple fair is on Fahua Mountain. Many people choose to go to the Fahua Temple on Fahua Mountain to offer incense during the three days when the temple fair is held, and pray that their wishes will come true. .

Li Mo didn't want to miss this temple fair.

The reason why Li Mo didn't want to miss this temple fair was not to go to pray for incense, but to use this opportunity to make a good profit. The temple fair was held for three days. During these three days, not only ordinary people would go to the incense, but also the vendors who were doing business had been looking forward to it. In these three days, on the mountain roads and along the road, there were stalls selling themselves. These three days are often a good time for vendors to make money. Not only are the prices much higher than usual, but they are also sold very well. No one wants to miss this opportunity.

Li Mo also thought about it. This time she will make more balm to sell. When that time, many women will also go and sell it. It will definitely sell well. Even if there are other powder sellers, they will also sell balsam, but they are not as cheap as hers. Affordable, she believes her business will not be bad.

I thought that it was only a few days away and there were only a dozen boxes in stock at home, which was far from enough, so I had to make more balm before the temple fair as soon as possible.

First, make more wooden boxes.

I talked to Song Dashan about the idea of ​​going to the temple fair. Song Dashan pursed his lips and was a little worried. "This temple fair is on the Fahua Mountain, a dozen miles away from our side. Most vendors drove to the fair. Stall, but we don’t have a car. We don’t know when we are going to go. Can you come down?"

Li Mo didn't expect Fahua Mountain to be so far away from the village. If he only walked on his legs, he would close the stalls when he walked there. Even if he was in time, could he still do business when he was tired?

I only thought of selling balm before, but I didn't think about the distance. How good is this?

"Brother Dashan, how do people in our village go to the temple fair?" Li Mo asked.

Song Dashan replied: "In those days, Lao Zhu’s family would drive the donkey cart back and forth to pull the villagers back and forth, but it’s okay to go to the temple fair in Shangxiang. If you do business, you must do it before people arrive. Set up a stall, and the earlier you go to the stall, the better. It is impossible to follow the donkey cart in the village."

Li Mo also knew the truth. The donkey carts in this village weren't good, so would you really have to walk on your feet?

This problem could not be solved for the time being, Li Mo had to put it down and said to Song Dashan: "Brother Dashan, we will slowly think about the car. You first go to Uncle Zhang's house and order two hundred boxes. We must quickly make the balm. Come out. There are a lot of boxes. Please ask Uncle Zhang to hurry up. It's best to get it in three days. We can give Uncle Zhang more money."

Song Dashan nodded immediately and immediately went out to Uncle Zhang's house.

The problem of the box is solved. Next is the problem of the flower. Two hundred boxes of balm are to be made. The demand for this flower is not one or two points. It will not work if two people gather it for two days. Packing the box, time can't keep up at all. It's not enough to rely on her and Song Dashan. You must find someone to help.

Her production method is known to others except for herself and Song Dashan. Now if she asks someone for help, she will inevitably expose the raw materials and methods of her production. Then her way of making money will be exposed, and it will be difficult in the future. Earn this money.

After thinking about it, Li Mo didn't make up his mind to find someone to help.

It’s not that I’ve never thought of looking for Zhao’s family, but they live in the same village. The two daughters-in-law of Zhao’s family are still taking the goods to sell. Once their family knows how to make them, then who can bear not doing it by themselves and spend four cents. Buy from her? Even if they can't resist doing it by themselves, what about their family? Where's the maiden family? Not everyone can do it. People are too mixed and difficult to hold.

Li Mo feels that once this matter is not handled properly, the two families may have discord.

People's hearts are unpredictable, Li Mo can't bet on humanity, and doesn't want to gamble on the friendship of the two families for so many years.

Knowing Li Mo’s worries, Song Dashan thought for a while, and said the candidate in his heart: "Li Mo, what do you think of my sister and brother-in-law? Meizi has been upright and kind since she was a child, never coveting other people’s cheapness, and she treats me like this. My brother is sincere and will not do anything to harm us, and my brother-in-law is more honest and will not do that villainous act."

Not to mention Song Dashan, Li Mo really didn't think of Meizi and Tiezi, but now he thought that these two people were really suitable.

So Li Mo nodded immediately, "Okay, then I will ask Meizi and Tiezi for help later, and let their family come over tomorrow, and then stay here for a few days. People at the temple fair will also need help, and wait until the temple fair is over. Let Meizi and Tiezi go back."

Song Dashan agreed, and said, "I'll go with you. You only walked once last time and didn't know the way to Meizi's house."

Li Mo thought for a while and nodded.

The two of them retrieved Xiaobao who was playing outside, locked the door, and then rushed to Meizi's house with Xiaobao.

When I arrived at Meizi's house, I would like to ask her and Tiezi to help me. Meizi agreed without saying anything, and made an appointment that he would rush to Inahara Village tomorrow.

The three of Song Dashan's family hurried back.

On the second day it was lighted, Meizi and Tiezi came with a very excited little tree. As soon as the little tree arrived home, they immediately ran to Xiaobao. The two children were like the Long March meeting, not to mention how excited they were. .

Meizi looked at the two children and laughed: "While I woke him up this morning and couldn't get up, he said that he would bring him to his uncle's house to find Xiaobao. He immediately opened his eyes."

Li Mo laughed as he listened, children sometimes are so funny.

Li Mo made some porridge and steamed a few buns. The family sat together for breakfast. After eating, with two children, the group carried a basket and went to the back of the mountain where large flowers grow. go with.

Let the two children play by themselves while the four adults pick flowers in the back basket. Meizi and Tiezi are quick and easy people, and they are no slower than Li Mo and Song Dashan. The efficiency of four people being together is much higher. One point, in a short while, the four big baskets were full of dangdang. Song Dashan spread a layer of thatch on top of the flowers, and together with Tiezi sent the flowers in the four baskets back home, where Li Mo and the plums continued to pick. , Waiting for them to come back.

In this way, the four people were busy from morning to night. They ate some dry food and water at noon, and picked dozens of baskets of flowers. It was estimated that they could make two hundred boxes. Li Mo then greeted everyone to go home.

Back home, it was already dark. Li Mo took out two candles he bought from the town and lit it. He made some noodles with flour in the kitchen. Four adults and two children had dinner around the table.

On this day, everyone was busy and tired. After eating, they simply washed and slept.

The next day, the four adults worked together, washing the flowers, burning the fire, stirring and stirring, and dried for a day without stopping, and finally all the flowers they picked were made into balm, and there was no box to put it. Put it in a large clean basin, one with rose flowers and one with chrysanthemum. Just wait for the box to be packed tomorrow.

Several people were busy working for several days, and finally made two hundred boxes of balm before the temple fair. At this time, the car that had not been solved before also had a solution.

Song Dashan ran to the house of a person who usually sells candied haws in the village next door. There is a bullock cart in the house, and he usually drives the bullock cart to do business. This time I went to the temple fair and planned to drive the bullock cart. The candied haws did not take up space, so it happened to be able to bring their family. So Song Dashan discussed with them and gave the family ten cents a day. The three days of doing business brought their family with them. The family agreed without hesitation.

Knowing that the problem of the car had also been solved, Li Mo was completely relieved, and then just waited for the sale.
