Take Taobao to ancient times

At the beginning, when Lu Siyu calculated the share, he had already included the uncle and the second uncle, because he couldn't do heavy work, but seeing the uncle and the second uncle getting up early in the morning to work, Lu Siyu still I feel a little admired.

Not everyone can do mental work, and not everyone can do physical work.

Let Lu Siyu find a way to make money, he can turn several corners, but let him do physical work, he will definitely not be able to do it.

Because the uncle and the second uncle started to work early in the morning, and the tofu came out very quickly that day. After the tofu was ready, the uncle and the second uncle each carried a burden and walked to other villages.

But after that, Lu Siyu didn't make any more. After all, the sales volume of tofu is limited. There is no need to do too much inventory.

This time the second uncle was not as lucky as yesterday. It took a long time to sell a load of tofu, but when he came back, he brought back a lot of soybeans. The price is less than a penny.

Uncle's side is the same, the sales are slow, but the soybeans purchased are a bit too much.

Fortunately, Lu Siyu had explained it before, and they didn't care about whether they would lose money if they bought so many soybeans.

That night, Zhuang Jinhan didn't come again, but let Lu Youdi carry a piece of meat and brought a few words.

"Master Zhuang said that he was in a hurry, so he couldn't come here. Come back after those things are over. Xiaoyu, don't worry too much. Master Zhuang will do what he says, and he will definitely come again." Lu Youdi handed the meat to Lu Siyu conveyed Zhuang Jinhan's words at the same time.

"Brother Youdi, what are you talking about?" Lu Siyu chuckled, "Although I always call him Brother Zhuang, we all know that he is Young Master Zhuang, and it's not just a matter of his saying that he can't make it through. We can't let him be so big. The young master has been staying at my house."

Zhuang Jinhan's absence has no effect on him. Speaking of which, he is the one who gets the cheapest these days.

"That's true," Lu Youdi scratched his head, "Master Zhuang is a good man, but no matter how good he is, he won't always live in the village."

"Yes, just treat Young Master Zhuang as a passer-by."

The uncle and the uncle ran twice that day. The first trip was a whole hundred catties of tofu, but the second trip was only a few dozen catties. They rushed back in the dark when they were all sold out.

At this time, Lu Siyu had already closed the door to rest, and the two sides did not meet again.

In the next few days, although the food at Lu Siyu's family did not go back to before, the amount of meat did decrease.

If Zhuang Jinhan didn't come, no one would bring any more meat.

However, the four of them adapted quickly to this point, because they knew from the very beginning that Zhuang Jinhan would not stay here for a long time, and they would not think that Zhuang Jinhan would always bring meat just because he ate the meat bought by Zhuang Jinhan a few times.

Afterwards, Lu Siyu also went to the town, pretending to buy some onion, ginger, garlic and simple condiments. Fresh onions, ginger and garlic are better, and it is difficult to buy them on Taobao. As for the condiments, he can quietly replace them. Those bought on Taobao, as long as he occasionally goes to the town, no one will suspect that he didn't actually buy condiments in the town.

The Lu family's tofu business is getting better and better. Occasionally, some wealthy families will order tofu at the Lu family in advance, and then they only need to deliver the tofu at the appointed time.

These people are not short of money, and the most important thing is freshness. Therefore, every time these custom-made tofu are prepared and delivered immediately, they will never cut corners. There was one time when the tofu order was delivered at [-] o'clock in the morning. Lu Siyu had no choice but to get up early to make tofu.

However, most of them are at noon or evening, and they are more comfortable at this time. During this time, the life of the three families is very abundant.

For a whole month, the three families were busy making tofu. At the end of the month, the annual Spring Festival came.

Some families in the south will start the New Year on the 21st of the twelfth lunar month, and some people will start on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month. The 23rd of the twelfth lunar month is also called Xiaonian. Tear it off and cremate it, so that the Stove Lord can go to heaven to report to the Jade Emperor what happened in the past year.

On New Year's Eve, every household will paste a new portrait of the Stove Lord and enshrine it in the kitchen, hoping that the Stove Lord will bless the next year with peace and safety.

Lu Siyu actually didn't know what the function of the Stove Lord was, but since it was posted in the kitchen, he could only boldly guess that it was to bless the next year's food. After all, in ancient rural areas, it was a very important thing to have enough food luxury.

In modern times, it is actually not difficult to eat enough, but this habit is still kept in many rural areas.

Inviting the Stove Lord, worshiping the ancestors, and burning paper money, the continuation of the custom is sometimes far beyond people's imagination.

Lu Siyu lives in the modern age. Apart from being able to feel the strong taste of the New Year when he was a child, he feels that the taste of the New Year is getting weaker and weaker when he grows up. It is common to eat and drink, and he often has new clothes. The joy of New Years is gone.

In the past, he didn't know whether it was because he had grown up and couldn't feel the taste of the New Year, or it was because the taste of the New Year in this world was getting weaker and weaker.

But here, he could clearly feel everyone's mood.

Every household hung up red lanterns and posted couplets. Everyone's face was filled with joy. For this year, they were even willing to take out a lot of belongings for consumption.

In this case, the Lu Siyu family became a special existence.

"Recently, tofu is getting better and better."

"Yes, yes, many people were unwilling to spend money in the past, but recently many people are willing to buy after the burden has been lifted."

"Choose more tomorrow."

"Then do more tomorrow."

Listening to the conversation of several people, Lu Siyu couldn't help interjecting: "Isn't it the New Year?"

"It's not important to make money during the Chinese New Year. It happens every year. Making money may only happen once this year. You can't miss such a good opportunity." The second aunt said bluntly again. In her opinion, there is probably nothing more important than making money.

"Such a good opportunity only comes once a year, and the tofu won't be easy to sell after the Chinese New Year." The aunt was worried, and she was also afraid of missing this opportunity.

"These days happen to be the most profitable time." The uncle said slowly, unwilling to miss it.

"Otherwise, Xiao Yu, would you work harder?" The second uncle looked at Lu Siyu cautiously.

Lu Siyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said directly: "Actually, I have nothing to do. It's my uncle and my uncle and my wife who have worked hard, but after a year, do you really want to spend it in business?"

"Isn't there nothing to do, we are not tired, the work at home is done quickly, and there is no delay in making tofu." The second aunt said, thinking that I might miss this good opportunity during this time, I feel distressed, how can I unwilling to give up.

Still reluctant in the end.

Lu Siyu was able to roughly understand the thoughts of several people. For nearly a month before, he could sell an average of two hundred catties of tofu every day. If there was a big order, he would sell more. All the tofu made are sold out.

All in all, this month has earned nearly ten taels of silver, but this time it is not the three families who share it equally, but Lu Siyu accounts for [-]%, that is, six taels, and the other two families each have two taels, and the bulk is still with Lu Siyu. The money earned by the two families is similar to the money sold for charcoal before.

However, the uncle's family and the second uncle's family obviously prefer such a steady stream of money. Even if the total income is not much, they are very happy every day. Seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming, they will naturally not let go of this good opportunity.

This was Lu Siyu's first year after traveling, but because both of them planned to continue their business, he didn't say much, and he still got up every morning to make tofu as before.

The fact is as predicted by the two families. With only seven or eight days left before the New Year, many people's expenses are much higher, and they are willing to spend money on tofu that they would not normally buy.

Entering Xiaonian, Lu Siyu calculated, but on Xiaonian day, he sold [-] catties of tofu, which was equivalent to the amount sold in the past three days.

However, because the main force selling tofu is still the uncle and the second uncle, and the number of villages they go to is limited, if they can reach a few more villages, they will definitely sell more.

Obviously, Lu Siyu was not alone in thinking so.

The next day, Uncle Lu simply asked the village head to rent an ox cart, and at the same time, Uncle Lu also rented an ox cart from another village. Each of them drove an ox cart and started running around the entire town and even the villages within the county. It's near Lujia Village, and they can all run.

Focusing on the nearby villages, call from one village to another, and occasionally encounter some fish that slip through the net. If a cart is sold out, I will come back and pull it again. Sometimes I can run several times a day.

Even Lu Siyu was stunned by this kind of progress. Of course it wasn't because of the high sales, but because he didn't expect his uncle and uncle to be enlightened, and even took the initiative to rent ox carts to do business. They wouldn't do it, but this time they not only did it, they didn't hesitate at all.

On the second day of the outbreak, 1000 two hundred catties of tofu were sold.

On the third day, fifteen hundred catties.

On the fourth day, fifteen hundred catties.

On the 23rd, 24th, 25th, 26th, 27th, 28th, and 29th of the twelfth lunar month, a total of seven days, more than 16 catties of tofu were sold, and the profit exceeded [-] Wen, minus the rental fee of the ox cart and a part of the replacement cost of soybeans , In the end, the money in his hand was equivalent to [-] taels of silver.

Lu Siyu still gave them the portion belonging to the uncle and the second uncle according to the previous ratio, and evened out an extra two taels of silver, so that one family stuffed one tael, which was regarded as a hard-earned money for the two families.

Without Lu Siyu, even if the uncle and uncle thought of a way to sell tofu, they would not be able to make too much tofu. Even if they did, they might make less money selling it than what they got now, which is why Lu Siyu was willing to take it for himself The reason for the big head, the profit of tofu mainly lies in the cheap gypsum powder he can buy, and in the end the ratio of soybeans to tofu reaches one to five.

The income in seven days was 16 taels, which was more than the income in the previous month.

On the day of New Year's Eve, no business will be done anyway.

Uncle Lu and Uncle Lu finally had time to rest and rested.

"I'm used to being busy, so I'm really not used to taking a break all of a sudden." Uncle Lu said sadly, although the busy life before was tiring, it was also very fulfilling, and after taking a break suddenly, he felt a little flustered.

"Me too. I used to feel relieved when I took a break from farm work, but this time I feel free. It's really strange." Uncle Lu was also disappointed.

Lu Siyu laughed: "I hope that uncle and uncle will do what they say, and the profitable business will not just stop like this."

"As long as there is money to be made, it doesn't matter how tired you are, we are all up to you!" the uncle said, patting his thigh.

"It's okay to earn less, anyway, Xiaoyu is the one who is good at making money." The second uncle quickly agreed, with money in his hand, he also had the confidence to speak.
