Lin Jinyue couldn't help but think, "She's such a clever little devil."
She even thought of that.
Seeing the billboard that had just been put up and was already attracting a lot of attention, Lin Man and the others were shocked once again.
"This...this will work?"
Lin Jinyue said with a smile, "You should go back to making coconut oil. I've already figured out the sales channels."
Seeing how enthusiastically everyone was buying coconut oil, Lin Man finally understood: it wasn't that coconut oil wasn't profitable, it was that they simply didn't know how to sell it.
As soon as they got back, Lin Man and the others immediately started making coconut oil.
Lin Jinyue specially prepared a tool for scraping coconut meat. Li the blacksmith was highly skilled, and each of the five of them had one. They also had a special tool for crushing coconut meat.
Lin Man and his team really went all out to make coconut oil this time.
Lin Jinyue told them to make a little more each day. Every day, Lin Man and the others took turns going to town to sell coconut oil. Once they sold out, they would immediately come back to continue making it, without stopping for a moment.
As a result, even this amount is not enough for each day.
So, when Lin Jinyue asked him how much coconut oil he had left.
Lin Man was sweating profusely.
Lin Man was a little worried: "Tell me, cooking oil isn't something you can drink like an iced beverage, so why did you buy so much?"
Lin Jinyue comforted them, "Do as much as you can, but don't overwork yourselves. I guess some people are worried about the price of lard going up later, so they won't have to do so much later."
The main problem is that there's been some trouble with the semi-automated tools at Li the blacksmith's place.
They will still need to do it manually for the time being.
Doing it manually would be too labor-intensive.
Lin Jinyue knew the general principle of a meat grinder, but there were many details that she could only discuss with Li the blacksmith slowly.
I tried three times in a row and none of them worked.
She thought she would just supply it slowly like this, and if that didn't work, she would try to improve the stone mill and buy a donkey to pull it.
We can't keep making them work so hard.
Let alone supplying the neighboring counties, even the small Shawan County is in short supply.
However, although this business is profitable, Lin Jinyue doesn't plan to hire too many people to do it.
Farmland is of paramount importance.
Who knows what you fear most might come to pass?
Lin Jinyue originally thought that they would earn as much as they could, and at least their monthly share would be twenty taels.
Her billboard had only been up for three days when people came to Shawan County looking for her.
This time, it wasn't just Ji Zixuan.
Lin Jinyue happened to know everyone who came, including Manager Gao from Ruyi Restaurant, Boss Cen from Yipinxuan Restaurant, and Manager Gu from Sihai Restaurant.
In addition, there's Ji Zixuan from Dongshunlou.
People from several of the larger restaurants in Shawan County all came.
Lin Jinyue looked at Ji Zixuan, somewhat uncertain: "Did he bring the other managers with him to distribute the wine?"
Surely it's not like they're buying coconut oil?
Ji Zixuan didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "The wooden barrels and wine jars will have to wait for two more days. I came here today for the coconut oil."
Lin Jinyue remained silent.
As expected, what I feared most came to pass.
Four more came at once.
Lin Jinyue said somewhat embarrassedly, "I'm really sorry, we don't have enough to sell every day."
Ji Zixuan then said, "I can provide manpower."
Lin Jinyue shook her head: "How about this, we meet at Yunheji Teahouse in half a month. I'm working on something. If I can finish it in half a month, the supply of coconut oil can be greatly increased in the future."
These people wanted to say something more, but then another person arrived.
The four restaurant owners looked at Madam Li, who ran a rouge shop, with puzzled expressions on their faces.
Lady Li said to them, "When the shopkeeper sold coconut oil, he said that it could be used not only for cooking but also for skincare and hand care."
Lin Jinyue's answer remained the same: she couldn't supply that many at the moment.
Even after those people had walked away, Lin Man and the others were still in a daze.
This incredible wealth has finally come their way?!
Lin Jinyue was also troubled, so she went to Li the blacksmith's place to see if the semi-automatic blender was ready.
Li the blacksmith was also looking at the large sheet of iron with a troubled expression.
Seeing Lin Jinyue arrive, he sighed, "Does such a thing really exist?"
Lin Jinyue replied firmly, "Yes!"
She just doesn't know the specific principles behind it yet.
Lin Jinyue went to look at the large metal box. It seemed that softer things could be easily broken, and things like mangoes and grapes could be handled properly.
The coconut meat was too tough, so it just wouldn't work no matter what I did.
Moreover, Li the blacksmith pointed out a fatal problem: "Yueyue, this stuff can be used directly to make juice, but it's iron after all, so it's prone to rusting."
Lin Jinyue was in a real bind.
After a while, she thought for a moment, "How about we try making stainless steel first?"
They've even made semi-automatic juicers; the principle behind crushing coconut meat is similar to that of crushing fruit.
But it was just that tiny difference that caused Lin Jinyue to go bald for a long time.
She couldn't wait to unlock the villa and dismantle her meat grinder and blender to study them.
Lin Jinyue was just thinking about it; if all else failed, she would just use coconut oil for now.
I'm earning quite a bit now.

The next day, after practicing two sets of boxing with her brother, Lin Jinyue wandered around.
Then I saw a ship approaching the shore on the distant horizon.
The person who came down was Mr. Cen, the owner of Yipinxuan, who had been there yesterday.
Lin Jinyue looked at him warily, "There really isn't any coconut oil left. They just took all of it to town to sell this morning."
Boss Cen looked around and, seeing that there was no one around, whispered, "I saw everything."
Lin Jinyue:?
What did he see?
