What does it resemble?
Lin Yu suddenly remembered the Suzhou-style mooncakes she had eaten!
It's filled with fresh meat, and it crumbles when you eat it, but it's very delicious.
In addition, there are Cantonese-style mooncakes, which are sweet and filled with fillings such as lotus seed paste, egg yolk, and red bean paste.
There's also a less common type, which also has a puff pastry crust but incorporates lard. The filling is red bean paste, which is a bit greasy but very fragrant, and it's best enjoyed with tea snacks.
Looking at the calendar, there's only one month left until the Mid-Autumn Festival. Should we make something?
Actually, there isn't enough time.
Lin Yu was conflicted.
Lin Aiguo knew her worries and smiled, saying, "Making mooncakes? You can give it a try. There's enough time. With so many people in our brigade, we can make quite a few in a few days."
For their generation, there is strength in numbers, and nothing is impossible to achieve through human effort.
So Lin Aiguo immediately gathered everyone together, and several production lines came together to make mooncakes!
Due to time constraints, Lin Yu only chose to make fresh meat mooncakes and egg yolk lotus seed paste mooncakes.
Their earthen kilns need to be modified into ovens.
This matter will be handled by Lin Yuan and Li Dahui.
The product development was handled by Lin Yu, Grandma Lin, and Aunt Liang.
Once the steps and division of labor were determined, the entire workshop began to get started.
After two days of the mooncakes having absorbed the oil, Lin Yuan, Li Dahui, and Zhou Huanan went out to explore the market.
They only distribute their products in local communes and provincial capitals.
These organizations have been cooperating with them for some time and have great confidence in the workshop's products.
Moreover, mooncakes, a mixture of sugar and oil, were very popular in those days.
Their workshop's mooncakes don't require mooncake coupons, and many factory workers will buy a few to take home and try.
It must be said that the workshop's products have a great reputation, and many people will buy them a second time after buying them once.
Lin Yu arranged production, and the office arranged shipments. All the goods were shipped out just three days before the Mid-Autumn Festival.
I'm so tired I can't even straighten my back.
But the profits this time were substantial!
After deducting the workers' wages, the profits from this batch of mooncakes brought the workshop fifty to sixty thousand yuan in cash.
Their efforts were not in vain!
"Celebrating that we can finally rest!" Lin Yu and his friends often had gatherings at Xie Xinyu's place.
Everyone has been busy for a long time, and we haven't had a proper conversation in a month.
Ruyi sat in the stroller, babbling and talking to them by the table.
However, they couldn't understand it.
Xie Xinyu used her salary to buy fabric and make new clothes for Ruyi. Now that Ruyi is wearing them, she looks even cuter.
"I feel that life is getting better and better."
With this formal job, she was able to support her child and felt hopeful about life.
There was a knock on the door, and Lin Yu and the others looked out.
Xu Kunpeng greeted them, "Are you having a get-together?"
Although no one knew him well, they still spoke to him politely out of politeness.
He then said, "Comrade Lin Yu, I have something to say to you."
Lin Yu was somewhat surprised: "Me?"
She went outside, curious about what Xu Kunpeng wanted to say to her.
He handed her a small box of cookies: "Lin Yu, I got paid and bought these at the supply and marketing cooperative. Here, have a taste."
He still had what he thought was a gentle smile on his face.
Lin Yupi replied perfunctorily, "No need, I don't like cookies."
Xu Kunpeng handed it forward again: "Don't be shy, try it, it should be delicious, I can't bear to eat it myself."
Lin Yu was speechless: "No need, thank you for your kindness, but I got tired of these cookies when I was a child."
She said it expressionlessly.
These biscuits are from Haicheng; her grandparents used to buy them often when she was little.
And the price isn't very expensive either.
Xu Kunpeng had just received his salary, but he still said that he couldn't bear to eat it and gave it to Lin Yu.
It's fair to say that every word this person utters is carefully crafted.
He might have succeeded if the other party were Qiao Mingming, but Lin Yu always remained wary of him and naturally analyzed the purpose of his every word.
She wouldn't take his cookies.
After sending him away, Lin Yu returned to Xie Xinyu's house.
"So? Did Xu Kunpeng confess his feelings to you?" Song Meili's eyes sparkled with gossip.
Lin Yu rolled her eyes and told him about it.
"The kind of person he is is one who deliberately acts ambiguously without confessing his feelings, making girls misunderstand."
Lin Yu understood it very well.
Xu Kunpeng is the kind of person who seeks the greatest benefit at the lowest cost.
First, make some ambiguous gestures to make the girl feel that he likes her.
But he doesn't confess his feelings, leaving her hanging.
Finally, he should choose the one who will be most helpful to him to marry.
Xie Xinyu was somewhat surprised: "I didn't realize it when we were at work, but he's quite good at flattering people."
The older women on the production line were often amused by him.
You can know a person's face but not their heart; Xie Xinyu felt that her judgment of people was really bad.
Lin Yu asked about their work situation.
Xie Xinyu said, "Both Xu and Su were good; they didn't slack off."
She then recalled what she had seen, wondering if it was true.
After thinking about it, I still didn't say anything.
Xu Kunpeng felt that Lin Yu had humiliated him and was very angry.
"Pshaw, what's so great about it?"
He was holding the cookies when he turned around and ran into Su Qing.
"Did Su Zhiqing go to the county town?" Seeing her carrying a package, I knew she had gone to the county town.
When their family sends them things, they have to go to the county post office to pick them up themselves.
It seems that Su Zhiqing's family is quite well-off.
