Chapter 0076: Finding a way to make a fortune for the whole family (sharing the era life with interstellar people)

While the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were talking, a familiar voice was heard outside.

Liu Guoxiang smiled and said, "Your father and the others are back. I wonder how the conversation went?"

As she spoke, she walked past her daughter-in-law, came to the kitchen door and looked out, and saw her husband and several uncles coming back with smiles on their faces.

"Baby's father, and his second, third, and fourth uncles, are you back?"

Liu Guoxiang immediately greeted his brothers and stepped aside to make way for the door, saying, "Come in quickly, come in and have some water."

"Don't worry, let's go home and have lunch first."

Yi Zhongyuan smiled and waved his hand, "Youngest, please go back quickly. Guoxiang is getting anxious waiting for you."

"Of course, the youngest and Kunika have always had a good relationship."

Yi Zhongju also smiled and walked directly through the kitchen door of the youngest's house and went straight to his own home. "This matter is big enough, it's normal for Guoxiang to be worried."

Yi Zhongqi smiled and said nothing, but he didn't stay for long and went straight to his main house.

Seeing his uncles walking so fast, Liu Guoxiang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "Why are you guys leaving so quickly? No one's arresting you."

"Hahahaha... If I don't move faster, I'm afraid you'll catch me."

As the brothers were talking, they were each scraping the mud off their shoes with bamboo sticks by the ditch outside their house.

Yi Zhongxiang also scraped the mud off his shoes by the dam first, and then went into the house under his wife's gentle gaze.

Seeing that his eldest daughter-in-law was cooking, he didn't say much. He walked straight through the kitchen and sat down in the main room.

Yi Rongquan quickly poured a cup of hot water for his father: "Dad, drink some water first."

"Dad, how was your conversation?"

Yi Rongqi came back from fishing and before he had time to change his clothes, he couldn't wait to go up to his father and ask what happened.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Wait until your dad drinks some water."

Liu Guoxiang raised his hand and slapped his youngest son. "Look at you, you're covered in mud. Go wash it off!"

Turning around, she saw her little daughter and two grandchildren huddled together like little kittens. She had no choice but to turn around and go to the kitchen to get some hot water for the three children to wash.

After finishing all this and returning to the main room, Yi Zhongxiang finished drinking his water and ignored his youngest son who was waiting for him to talk.

He waited until his wife, eldest daughter-in-law and second daughter finished cooking, eating and clearing the dishes before coming back.

Only after he glanced in the direction of his third and second brother's homes did Yi Zhongxiang tell them in detail about how he and several of his brothers had gone to the brigade cadres today to discuss setting up a brick and tile factory.

He said: "When the brigade cadres heard that we wanted to use our family's brick and tile making formula to build a factory in the village, they expressed their support and praise."

"They all said this was a good thing that would benefit both the country and the people. It would not only solve the villagers' employment problems but also increase the collective income."

"They didn't even try to force the price on the share allocation. In the end, our family invested in the formula and got 35% of the dry shares."

"Hey, that's not bad, it's half a percent more than the minimum of 30% we expected."

Yi Rongquan said happily, "Dad, you and my second and third uncles are really amazing."

"It's not that we are so good."

Yi Zhongxiang waved his hand, "Actually, some of the brigade cadres are quite honest and don't want to treat us unfairly."

"They also knew that without the formulas and brick and tile factory information we provided, our Tongxing Brigade wouldn't be able to run an industry."

"So he's quite generous to our family in this regard."

"The remaining 65% will be divided among the brigade, the commune, and even the district."

"The specific division is up to them to discuss with their superiors. We will not interfere."

"Anyway, Fourth Brother said he's carefully read the terms of the contract these past two days, and no one else can do anything about it."

"Still my little sister... woo..."

Before Yi Rongqi could finish his words, Yi Rongquan covered his mouth, blocking him from saying anything else.

Yi Zhongxiang looked at his youngest son with a warning, and frightened Yi Rongqi so much that he nodded repeatedly, indicating that he would stop talking nonsense.

Liu Guoxiang asked his youngest son, "Qiwen, have you not listened to what your father and I have been teaching you?"

"Mom, I remember."

Yi Rongqi replied weakly, "I...I was just a little too excited just now."

"Then don't participate in any important family meetings in the future, so you don't get so excited and say the wrong thing."

Yi Zhongxiang looked at his youngest son coldly, "Qiwen, you will be twelve years old after the New Year. Counting the year you were in your mother's belly, you will be almost thirteen."

"Are you a fool without a brain or someone who doesn't know the seriousness of the situation? You still act like you're three years old, and you're playing such childish nonsense with me?"

"Dad...I know I was wrong."

Yi Rongqi felt his father's inner anger and trembled unconsciously.

"I...I will try not to speak louder in the future. If I want to say something, I will think it over several times in my mind to make sure there is no problem before speaking out."

"You've said that more than once."

Yi Rongying reminded him, "I hope you won't get excited so easily."

"Dad, is there anything else?"

Seeing that his younger brother was so frightened that he was about to crawl into a crack in the ground, Yi Ronghua quickly called out to draw his parents' attention back, "Did the people in the team say anything else?"

Yi Zhongxiang glared at his youngest son again before continuing, "They also asked us what we thought about the location of the brick factory."

"We all discussed and estimated that it would be built near the reservoir in front of us."

"Because there is convenient access to water there, and there is a place opposite Datu with clay that is just right for making bricks and tiles."

"As for the brick and tile factory workers, our Yi family has reserved three spots. We'll see how to choose them when the time comes. The remaining spots will be chosen by the brigade."

"Anyway, we're just going to work and we're getting paid, and that's factored into our costs, so it won't affect our income too much."

The whole family laughed when they heard this.

Yi Rongquan: "Dad, when will we start building the brick and tile factory? How big can it be? How many people will be employed in total?"

"At the very least, it will take at least ten days. The brigade has to report to the commune and get permission before we can do it."

Yi Zhongxiang glanced at his second son and asked, "Why? You don't want to continue learning tailoring?"

"No, I'm just asking."

Yi Rongquan smiled wryly, "I still have to continue learning tailoring. After all, what I learn will be more respectable than being a brick factory worker."

He looked at his brother Yi Ronghua and said, "Brother, are you interested in working in the brick factory?"

"No, I can't handle it with my physique."

"Brother and Sister Mou can open a shop."

Yi Rongkun suddenly said, "Sister Mou's cooking is delicious. Why don't you open a shop on the street and sell food there?"

"No, no, my cooking skills are only good enough for my family, but I don't have the confidence to make it for sale."

Yi Rongkun rolled his eyes and smiled, "Sister-in-law, the pig cakes (a kind of fried noodle dish with thicker ingredients than fried dough sticks) you make are especially delicious. Why don't you make them specifically for sale?"

"You make it and I'll help you sell it."

When the audience in the live broadcast room saw this, they frantically posted comments: [Ahhh, the anchor is giving us benefits, right?]

【I want to eat, I want to eat, I want to eat. 】

[The host likes to eat it, so we want to try it too.]

[Yes, dear anchor, have your mother and sister-in-law cook and sell it to us. We promise to make it easy for you to digest.]

[Whether you want money or technological information, we can offer it to you in exchange. We guarantee you'll make a profit.]

Yi Rongying saw her little sister's clever expression and thought of her live streaming system, her eyes lit up: "Yes, my little sister can help sell it."

Yi Zhongxiang looked at his daughter worriedly: "Little sister, is this really okay?"

Liu Guoxiang also thought of selling things to that star through his daughter.

But when she thought of the good things those people brought out, she couldn't help swallowing.

She lowered her voice nervously and asked, "Little sister, is this too..."

She felt very embarrassed because she earned too much.

Yi Rongkun: "If you make something specifically for sale, you can set your own prices. You don't have to let them suffer a loss."

While answering her parents' questions, her mind was communicating with the system: "Tongtong, can viewers use money to buy the food made by mom and sister-in-law?"

System: "Yes, they use star coins to buy your things. I can help you exchange them into the currency you use here."

"What currency?"

It was the first time that Yi Rongkun heard this word, so he asked quickly.

“That’s the money you use here.”

The system patiently explained, "Currency is a general term for money."

"Is this okay?"

Seeing the reactions of their parents and second sister, Yi Ronghua and Mou Decong also understood what was going on. Their eyes lit up and they looked at their youngest sister eagerly.

"Little sister, if we really make money, Big Brother and Sister-in-law will split it with you in half."

Yi Rongkun blinked, "Hehe, okay, I promise not to let Big Brother and Big Sister Mou suffer any loss."

After thinking for a moment, she looked at her parents and said, "I can ask my eldest aunt, second aunt, fourth aunt, and my cousins ​​to make some delicious food, and I'll help them sell it."

"Anyway, there are many people who want to eat the delicious food here."

"this……"

Liu Guoxiang was also shocked by her daughter's idea. She looked at her husband inquiringly, "What do you think?"

"Each of us makes a specialty and sells it over there..."

At this point, she couldn't help swallowing her saliva, her voice trembling with excitement: "If this is the case, the income will be much higher than that of the brick and tile factory."

Yi Zhongxiang also reacted. He looked at the little girl hesitantly and whispered, "You can't help them sell it in my name."

"Just say your boss is out doing business and you can bring some to sell for them. Ask them to specify the quantity and the price per portion."

"This will avoid any further hassles later."

“This is OK…”

Having said this, several elders walked back home, and the whole family tacitly agreed not to continue this topic.

We plan to discuss the details of this matter when we have the chance.

"What are you talking about so excitedly?"

Yi Zhongju's voice came, "Looks like you've been talking here for quite some time."

"What else can I say? It's just about the brick factory."

Yi Zhongxiang and his wife hurriedly stood up with their children and grandchildren to greet their brothers and sisters-in-law, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, sister-in-law, come and sit down."

"Second brother, third brother, fourth brother, please do as you please."

"Ahhhhhhhhhh."

Yi Rongxin followed his father to his uncle's house. He was so happy that his teeth were showing and his eyes were wide open. He gestured quickly with his hands to greet everyone.

Everyone was busy too, greeting the elders and their cousins ​​who had come with them.

For a moment, the main hall of the Yi family was full of people sitting in the room.

Our ancestors were so perceptive.

[Ahhh, I really hope my ancestors can quickly make delicious food and sell it in the live broadcast room. I want it.]

[From what the host and his friends said, they want each family to cook a different dish. Wouldn't that be a real treat for us?]

[Don't overthink it. If every family prepares one type of food, they won't be able to make much to sell.]

[It depends on luck, not everyone will be able to grab it.]

"Wow, if that's the case, the Yi family doesn't need to work in a brick factory. As long as they have a delicious food they can serve, they'll be making a fortune."

[Didn't you understand what our ancestors meant? The one who will really make the big money will still be the anchor ancestors.]

[I am willing to let my little ancestor make money. ]

I do, too.

[I'm happy for my little ancestor to earn this money. She made us taste what real food is.]

The audience in the live broadcast room were having a great time, and everyone in the Yi family's main hall was also talking excitedly.

Everyone is discussing how to build the brick and tile factory.

"Sister-in-law, second brother, second sister-in-law, third brother, and the youngest and younger sister-in-law, you all know that I have many children. Can you give one of those three spots to my family?"

As he spoke, his eyes fell on his third son.

When Yi Rongyun heard his father pleading with his uncles for him, his face flushed red and he stood up from his stool awkwardly: "My dad got this place for me."

"Auntie, Second Uncle, Second Auntie, Third Uncle, Youngest Uncle, Youngest Auntie, please give me a chance. I will do my best and promise not to bring shame to you."

"Don't worry, Rongyun."

Before the other brothers and sisters-in-law could speak, Yi Zhongxiang spoke up, "Don't worry, Fourth Brother and Sister-in-law. Our children have better options. There's no need for them to do such strenuous work."

Not only Yi Zhongqi's family was surprised by his words, but the other three families also looked at him in surprise.

"Youngest, what do you mean by that?"

"Yeah, youngest, from what you're saying, is there anything better than working in a brick factory?"

"Youngest, don't try to fool us. In our area, having a handicraft is already great. What better choice is there?"

Yi Zhongqi looked at the youngest with hope in his eyes. "My third child couldn't find any other way out at the moment, so I wanted to arrange for him to work in the brick and tile factory. You..."

Yi Zhongju looked at the youngest worriedly: "Youngest, don't take on too much."

"There aren't many educated young people in our Yi family. Rong Yun is still not married at this age. I can understand why the fourth brother and his family have this plan."

"But you also said there are other options. Third Brother would like to remind you to think about it more."

Yi Zhongxiang could tell that every word his third brother said was for his own good, and he was deeply moved.

He looked at his brothers and sisters-in-law with a smile, and after a moment's hesitation, he said, "This new option is just a preliminary idea. I can't tell you the details right now."

"But if it succeeds, it will be a good thing for our Yi family and even the entire Tongxing Village."

These words made everyone in the room quiet down, and they all turned their eyes to Yi Zhongxiang.

Especially Yi Rongyun, who was about to start working at the brick factory, his eyes lit up and his lips moved but he said nothing.
