Li Yan told her mother about her conversation with her uncle today.

"Okay, you draw the drawing for me and I will make it for you." This was how the matter was settled.

After Li Yan returned to her room, she began to draw the design. In fact, this rabbit scarf is not complicated. There is a hole at the end for the other side to pass through. Although the style is simple, it looks very beautiful.

Paired with furry gloves, it is hard for girls to resist their love for such furry items.

During dinner, Li Erlang brought up the matter of fermented tofu.

"My Lord wants all 30 jars of fermented bean curd. The journey south is long, and we need to get it delivered before the festival. There's no time to lose!"

Speaking of fermented bean curd, Li Yan had an idea. Her family was already busy enough with the soy sauce business, and if they were to produce fermented bean curd on a large scale, they would probably not be able to handle it.

Li Yan proposed to expand a fermented bean curd workshop in the village and invite the aunts in the village to help.

"What if someone else learns this method of making fermented bean curd?" Li Xiaomei asked with some concern.

It is only a matter of time before someone discovers and learns it. As long as someone is willing to spend time and effort to study it, it is only a matter of time.

It's not that anyone can learn it. If you want fermented bean curd to taste good, the key lies in the fermented bean curd juice, which requires various spices to be boiled out. Even if others learn how to ferment fermented bean curd, there will definitely be a difference in taste.

Li Yan still has confidence in this regard.

"Don't worry, auntie. This is something that benefits all of us. Let the clan leader choose the person. If anyone deliberately leaks it, it will ruin other people's jobs, and the villagers will certainly not agree to it."

Li Erlang frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "If this thing is done well, it will benefit everyone. The only thing I'm afraid of is someone promising huge profits. It's not easy to prevent such a thing from happening, but Dad still supports your decision. If you're hesitant, you won't be able to accomplish anything!"

Li Yan nodded heavily. When it comes to ways to make money, she has many ideas in her mind. If she is afraid that others will learn from her, she will not do it. This is not her original intention.

The matter was settled. The next day, Li Yan would look for her grandfather and then go look for the clan leader. Let's not talk about this matter for now.

The next day, just after dawn, there was a knock on the Li family's gate.

Li Yan sighed helplessly and struggled to get up. Most of the people who came to sell soy sauce this morning were from villages far away from Lijia Village.

Now people in the neighboring villages and Lijia Village are accustomed to returning home that night and carrying the soy sauce back, and no longer come to bother the Li family early in the morning.

The person who knocked on the door this morning must have left home before dawn and just rushed to Li's house.

Even though she was sleepy, Li Yan still packed up and went out. Whether this business deal was successful or not actually had no impact on her, but for those who were traveling under the starlight, it was a matter of livelihood for the whole family. Li Yan could not and dared not be willful.

When Li Yan came out of the house, Li Erlang had already sent the man away.

Seeing that her daughter was still sleepy, she said softly, "It's still early, go back to sleep for a while, I'll be fine here!"

It's embarrassing to say that my daughter is the one who basically takes care of the family's livelihood, and I, as her father, am just a hands-off boss. If I can't do this little thing well, it would be really unacceptable.

Li Yan was indeed sleepy. Even after getting up, her mind was still in a mess. "Then Dad, you watch over me. I'm going to sleep for a while!"

At this moment, Li Yan looked like a sleepy child. On normal days, how could one see any trace of pretentiousness or laziness in her?

"Go." Li Erlang said softly, as if he was afraid that his voice was too loud and would wake her up.

After another sound sleep, Li Yan opened her eyes and it was already bright outside.

After quickly tidying herself up, Li Yan walked out of the room and saw Mr. Li talking to someone in the yard.

"You earned thirty coins for carrying this one jar? Then wouldn't you have earned sixty coins for carrying two jars?"

The middle-aged man scratched his head innocently and chuckled twice: "Hey, the price has been lower these past two days. If it was sold half a month ago, I would have made this much money from this jar!"

After saying that, he slapped Mr. Li in the face.

After the middle-aged man picked up the goods, he didn't bother to greet Mr. Li anymore and left in a hurry.

After Li Yan finished washing up and walked over from the well, she saw Old Man Li looking at the jars of soy sauce that filled the yard with a painful look on his face.

I thought to myself, 'Oh, how much money I lost!

Seeing his granddaughter coming over, Mr. Li asked doubtfully, "Is the price of our soy sauce too low?"

"Master, here's what I'm thinking: if we set the price high, fewer people will be able to afford it, and the quantity we sell won't be as high as it is now. Don't you agree?"

The original positioning of this soy sauce was to go for the common people. With so many people helping her distribute it, she had to give some profit to those who worked so hard.

If we sell 100 jars a day, we can make a net profit of 2 taels of silver every day, which is an astronomical figure for a farmer.

Mr. Li knew his granddaughter's words made sense, but the profit from selling this load of soy sauce was too good, wasn't it? If he weren't so old, he would have wanted to do this job. Why could he earn 60 cents a day?

However, due to the supply and demand market, the price of soy sauce is still a bit high. Once a few peddlers carrying soy sauce appear in that town, the price will naturally drop. There will still be some profit, but not as much as at the beginning.

"How about I let your uncle carry the soy sauce out to sell as well?" Old Master Li couldn't help but ask.

Li Yan spat out a mouthful of porridge in an instant.

I sighed in my heart, "How jealous his father must be!"

Old Master Li had a fierce face and said to his granddaughter, "Why are you making such a fuss? It's a waste of food!" He seemed to feel embarrassed as well and said it in a calm manner.

Li Yan, who had recovered, waved her hands hurriedly: "Don't let Uncle go, I have a job to hand over to Uncle!"

Seeing Sun's seriousness, Mr. Li immediately became interested: "Tell me quickly, tell me, what's the matter? Do you need my help?"

Old Master Li is enjoying himself very much now. When others see that he is so enthusiastic, he stands taller in the village. When he hears that there is work, he is very willing to come forward.

"I want to build a fermented bean curd workshop in the village. I'll ask the aunties in the village to help me. I'll also ask you to accompany me to the clan leader's house later!"

When Mr. Li heard this, he was both excited and proud: "Let's go now. I'll let your uncle look after this first!" After that, he couldn't wait to go next door to look for someone.
