Five days after the workshop's trial operation, the workers finally became proficient, and Lin Ping'an chose a good day to announce the official opening.

The official opening is different from moving into a new house. It just means setting off firecrackers and worshiping the God of Wealth.

After all, we are doing business, and we have to worship the God of Wealth to bless the business and keep the workshop safe.

Uncle He brought a few people over and also asked the chef from Guangyunxuan to come over and cook.

These people came to a small village and were a little disgusted.

When I saw Lin Ping'an's house, I wasn't too surprised.

After all, it's just a house in the country. The yard is huge, but it's not as good as their house in the city.

But when I saw the sweet potatoes in the front yard and the strings of tough vermicelli hanging in the backyard, I became interested.

"Is this vermicelli?"

"I've eaten hot and sour noodles before, and it seemed to be made from this stuff. I didn't expect the finished product to be like this."

"This thing is good. It's very tough. It's easy to store, not easy to damage, and easy to transport."

Several people were very shrewd and looked around the vermicelli again and again, their eyes sparkling.

Uncle He whispered to Lin Pingan, "These are a few businessmen. They have shops all over the world. As long as the goods are delivered to them, there is no need to worry about not being able to sell them."

This is also the reason why he brought these people here, just to let them see the goods.

After the visit, it was time to eat. There were several dishes related to vermicelli on the table.

Vermicelli stewed with chicken, ants climbing the tree, vermicelli stewed with cabbage, pork stewed with vermicelli...

These businessmen tried every dish and were full of praise for their food.

Vermicelli can be paired with vegetables or meat. It is a dish that can be eaten by both wealthy and ordinary families.

Moreover, this thing looks like it can be stored for a long time. It is also a good dish to buy some and store at home in winter.

After they had eaten, they had already made the decision to purchase goods, in large quantities.

When they left, they had already signed a contract, and each of them wanted 10,000 kilograms of goods.

Lin Ping'an now knew a lot of words from the children. After reading the contract, he was shocked.

Just seven people, that's 70,000 jins.

About five pounds of sweet potatoes can produce one pound of vermicelli. Adding water, labor, etc., the cost of one pound of vermicelli is about ten cents.

Lin Pingan assigned the goods to Uncle He, who then sold them to these people.

The price given to Uncle He was based on twenty cents per catty, making half the profit. Seventy thousand catties was a profit of seven hundred taels of silver.

Suddenly making a net profit of 700 taels, this was something that Lin Ping'an could not even imagine before.

Uncle He smiled and said, "Don't think you are making a lot. If you take these vermicelli out, they will sell them for a higher price."

If the vermicelli is sold outside, even if the price is higher, many people will definitely buy it.

In this world, some people are poor and some are rich, and there is always no shortage of people who are willing to spend money.

Uncle He added, "This 70,000 jins is just the quantity they ordered. I will order another 30,000 jins. You will speed up the shipment."

Having ordered 100,000 kilograms of vermicelli at once, Lin Pingan felt a lot of pressure, but he was also excited.

"Okay, Brother He, I'll go quickly and won't see you off."

Seeing that he finally looked high-spirited, Uncle He couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, I won't delay you anymore."

When he came out of Lin's workshop, he happened to see Lin Youfu, who was quarreling with the villagers.

Because he found someone from outside to take over his land, some villagers complained that he refused to find someone from the village. After a few words with him, he started to quarrel with them.

"Who do you think you are? I can plant the land for whoever I want. Do you need to worry about it?"

"Gungun, don't block the road. Don't say that we look after each other in a village. There's no need. When my Guangsheng students get their grades, you will naturally come to curry favor with me."

What he said was ugly and arrogant, and the villagers were even more angry.

But they didn't dare to offend him too much.

After all, Lin Guangsheng had been studying for so many years, and it seemed that he was indeed capable of passing the examination.

If Lin Guangsheng passes the exam and becomes an official, and then takes revenge on them, ordinary people like them will really be unable to resist.

Lin Youfu cursed and walked away triumphantly, not forgetting to despise them when he left.

"Some country folk still want to take advantage of me? Damn you!"

The villagers dared not speak out in anger, so they could only scold him secretly.

Uncle He walked over slowly and saw Lin Youfu's triumphant look, thinking that with such relatives, Lin Guangsheng would not be able to go far in the officialdom even if he was admitted to the imperial examination.

It would be nice if Lin Youfu didn't cause trouble for him.

Oh, is it really that easy to be an official?

When he returned, Lin Yiyue and others had just finished class. After Mr. Chen came out of the classroom, several children ran out of the house.

The fastest runner was Sima Qing. He took the lead and ran to the swing. He stood on it and started swinging.

Others came slowly and didn't catch it, so they went to the side to stretch their arms and legs. Some people practiced the boxing skills taught by Master Wu again.

Uncle He saw it funny and very pleased.

In the past, His Highness was very sick and always had bad luck. He would easily fall down even on flat ground.

Therefore, he never dared to run or jump. He always walked cautiously for fear of getting sick or having an accident.

Since coming here, his health has gotten better and better. Now he dares to run and jump. He is so lively that he doesn't look sick at all.

If those in the palace saw the changes in His Highness, they would definitely be surprised.

At this time, Lin Xiangxiang came out of the classroom.

There was a little ink on her face, probably from accidentally sticking on it while practicing calligraphy.

Lin Yiyue and others saw it and quickly got some water. They wiped her face first, and then wiped off the ink stains after her cheeks turned red.

Her face was flushed and her eyes were bright. When she saw Uncle He here, she ran over.

"Uncle He, I want to discuss something with you."

Uncle He knelt down and said with a smile, "What does Miss Lin want to discuss?"

Lin Xiangxiang took out two pieces of paper from his body and said, "I think the courtyard of the school is a bit monotonous. Can we get some shelves like this so that we can exercise on them after class?"

It was a drawing she made of modern fitness equipment.

There are single and parallel bars that can exercise arm strength, a climbing frame that can be used for leg presses, and a seesaw, which is fun to use for entertainment.

Uncle He looked at the strange-looking thing on the paper, and when he heard her explain its use, his eyes lit up.

"Miss Lin, this thing you mentioned is really good. I'll find someone to try it first and see if it works."

Thinking of the recliner Lin Xiangxiang designed for Ouyang Qing last time, he thought it was very good. These things should be good too.

Moreover, if this thing can really be used for exercise, can it be placed in military camps, palaces, and many academies?

Today's emperor has always advocated that scholars should have all six arts skills, but conditions in many places are very poor, and students don't have that much time to go horseback riding and archery.

But with these simple appliances, students can relax and exercise when they are tired from studying.

Uncle He was thinking passionately and had already thought of the benefits of these things.

But at this time, he suddenly calmed down.

If this thing is presented, will the emperor be suspicious of His Highness?
