If it's cheap, then they won't do this business.

Whether it's expensive or not, they can try making it and see.

However, they still can't monopolize this business; they still need to find someone to cooperate with.

Thinking about all this, Chi Qiao said, "Xiao Yu, let's put off the cement thing for now."

Let's make soap first. You can use half of the lard you have at home to try it out.

If we can make it, let's earn the money first.

Also, you said that after the seashell is calcined and ground into powder, it is also calcium, which is said to be quicklime.

If there's little plant ash and plenty of seashells, can it be used as a direct substitute?

Seaside areas are probably abundant with shellfish, right?

"It should be possible. I've never done it before, but that's my impression."

You'll only know the specifics once you try it yourself.

After all, as you know, anyone can talk the talk, but in reality, it requires a practical approach.

"Okay! Let's go out first, it'll probably be time to eat outside."

Don't say anything yet. Your older brother and I will try our best to get you what you need.

Let's try it inside, not outside. It's too conspicuous at this time.

Besides, I estimate that the charcoal kilns on the other side of Tanshan have all collapsed.

In our village, everyone's cellars have collapsed.

Only here, the house is mostly fine, and the cellar is perfectly good too.

Speaking of this, Chi Yu also found it very amazing.

In her opinion, her old house was not as sturdy as the ancestral hall.

As a result, the ancestral hall collapsed, but she still stood firm, which is somewhat mystical!

However, when she thought about how she and her sister could both transmigrate into books, what else was impossible?

Just wait and see how she and her sister lead their people onto the road to prosperity.

As for Qi Family Village, where that scumbag husband lives, let them starve!

Because he wanted to make cement and soap, Chi Yu didn't go out much from that day on.

The main problem is that the rain outside keeps pattering down, and everyone in the village is living in their tarpaulin sheds, just waiting for the weather to clear up.

Therefore, apart from going out to eat, she spends the rest of her time in the main room, or rather, in her private space.

As for the grocery store, it remained open as usual.

At that time, the general store only sold things like needles and thread.

Food items and alcoholic beverages have already been sold out.

After Wang Qiaoya and her mother-in-law had agreed that her younger siblings would build a wooden house in Chijia'ao and would not work for the time being, while they were learning to read and write with Master Shen, Shen Kai arrived.

He arrived on the fifth day of the second month, accompanied by Doctor Tao and ten cartloads of goods.

At that time, the rain had just stopped in Chijia'ao, and the roads were extremely muddy.

Every household, except for the boys who were learning to read from Master Shen, was busy building wooden houses or shacks.

Having already discussed things with her eldest son's family, Huang Dani was in a good mood recently, so when she saw Shen Kai leading the way, she smiled and went to greet him.

"Brother Chen Kai is here? What's the situation in the county town now?"

When you passed through Wangwanli, what was the situation there?

Because the weather had cleared up, Wang Qiaoya, who had originally planned to accompany her mother-in-law to dig for wild vegetables, looked intently at Shen Kai upon hearing this.

Since speaking to Chi Yu, she has stopped crying.

She can't bury her parents yet, so she can only wait until the weather gets better and the roads are easier to travel before she takes her younger siblings back.

Therefore, she was particularly concerned about Wang Wanli's situation.
