Song Li went to Liu Gongan's house several times. Since drinking the red date and wolfberry tea that Song Li gave her, Feng Mei's complexion has improved a lot.
She was naturally plump and pleasing, and now she was even more beautiful.
"Ali, you're here. Come and see if I have become more beautiful these days?" Feng Mei pulled Song Li when she saw her.
"It's true. My sister-in-law has become much whiter and has a better complexion. Her face is white with a hint of red. She looks like a little girl."
"Hahaha, I'm an old woman now, I can't compare to the delicate and tender young girl. But it's true that I've become younger. Your brother Xuejun said that my skin has improved these days."
There is no woman who doesn't love beauty. Feng Mei has been holding the mirror and can't let it go these days.
"Ali, do you still have that red date and wolfberry tea? I want to buy some from you."
Feng Mei's change is so obvious that all her colleagues want it, and even her sister-in-law took a few packets from her to try. She came to ask for it yesterday.
Song Li blinked her eyes, curled her lips and smiled, "It's just a few packets of tea. If sister-in-law wants to drink some, I'll bring it to you next time. If I take your money, I'll be speculating and profiteering."
"Let's not talk about speculation and profiteering. Sister-in-law won't hide it from you. This red date and wolfberry tea is not just something I want to drink. My colleagues and sister-in-law are also thinking about it. Sister-in-law can shamelessly ask for one or two packets, but how can I take so much from you for free?"
Feng Mei is an honest person and does not want to take advantage of Song Li, but she also understands Song Li's concerns. The reputation of speculation is not easy to bear.
"Sister-in-law, let me tell you something. Your brother Xuejun is already busy. He's busy catching thieves, kidnappers, and swindlers all day long and has no time to take care of us."
Song Li got the information she wanted and agreed to her request, "Since sister-in-law said so, I will send you ten packs tomorrow."
"Okay, you count the money, sister-in-law will never let you down!"
A pack of red date and wolfberry tea costs two yuan, which is not expensive, and one pack can be consumed for half a month. Feng Mei's colleagues can afford it with a monthly salary of 20 to 30 yuan.
Even Feng Mei felt that her price was too low. A pack of products with such good effects would not be expensive at ten yuan.
This trip to the city not only allowed him to learn about the internal information of the public security department, but also helped him make a business deal. Song Li immediately notified Xiang Qian that the five-spice melon seeds could be sold.
The temperature in Heilongjiang Province in January has exceeded minus 30 degrees Celsius. There is several meters of snow on both sides of the street, and the howling north wind makes people shiver.
But this still can't stop the booming business.
As the Chinese New Year approaches, every family is preparing for the New Year.
Melon seeds are the most indispensable snack. During the Chinese New Year, if everyone visits relatives and friends, they will grab a handful, which means you have to buy more than ten kilograms.
In the past, they all bought them in department stores, but this year, five-spice melon seeds suddenly appeared and they couldn’t resist buying them after trying them.
Xiang Qian was more careful this time than when he was selling date cakes. Thanks to Song Li's "tipping off", he won over many younger brothers.
He distributed the five-spice melon seeds to these younger brothers to sell together, which not only divided their attention but also increased the sales speed.
Five thousand kilograms of melon seeds were sold out in just one week.
At the grocery store, raw melon seeds are 5 cents per pound, and fried ones are 10 cents, but Song Li's five-spice melon seeds are 50 cents per pound, which is five times more expensive than at the grocery store. Xiang Qian still gets a 20% commission, so Song Li gets exactly 4,000 yuan.
All her money now adds up to over ten thousand yuan. In the 1970s, it was rare to be a millionaire, not to mention that she also had the small yellow croaker given by Qi Huaiyu in her space.
Song Li thought that she would have to go to Beijing next year. It would be a waste to just keep the money there. She had to buy some real estate before the restrictions were lifted. She really liked the courtyard houses in Beijing.
After telling Xiang Qian that they would resume business after the New Year and let them have a good New Year, Song Li rode her bike to the department store.
During the Chinese New Year, the He family also has to prepare New Year’s goods.
Song Li bought whatever she saw, including rice, flour, meat, vegetables, fruits, snacks, and dried fruits and candied fruits. In addition to these, she also bought window decorations and couplets.
This is the first New Year after her time travel, and also the last New Year for her and her children. She wants to enjoy it well.
Qingqing had been looking forward to wearing small leather boots during the New Year. Song Li picked out two pairs of red lambskin boots from the space and prepared new clothes and toys for the two children.
The two children stayed at the Song family every day, and Song Li also prepared a portion for Xiaohua.
After returning home and putting down her things, she went to Old Song's house with the money and the gift for Xiaohua.
Song Laoer and his two uncles didn't take the roasted melon seeds matter seriously, and they never thought that Song Li would sell them for money, so when they saw the huge sum of four thousand yuan, they were stunned.
"Pear, what do you say...how much is this?"
Song Laoer stopped smoking his pipe and stared with his eyes wide open, shaking the pipe.
That's four thousand yuan. The Song family can't even save forty yuan a year. He can't even imagine saving so much money.
Song Li put a bunch of big unity on the table, "Dad, why don't you count them yourself?"
"No, no, no, I don't want to count. I will ruin this much money if I count it again." Song Laoer waved his hands repeatedly.
Song Chenglin was the first to react. "Little sister, you said all this money was earned from selling melon seeds. How did you sell them?"
Isn't the city cracking down on speculation and profiteering? His sister is really brave.
Song Li had already prepared her excuse, "I know someone who can sell everything to me."
"That won't work either. Don't do such dangerous things anymore."
Song Chenglin was worried about his sister, but money was not as important as his sister.
"Okay, I'll listen to Third Brother and quit before the New Year."
As for after the New Year, even if she didn't want to do it, Feng Mei's colleagues would have to come over.
The melon seeds were roasted by the two sons of Song Laoer, so the money should naturally be divided equally. However, the Song family has not yet split up, so the money should all be given to Song Laoer.
But they said they didn't want anything.
"We just helped fry it. The melon seeds and other ingredients are all yours. What do I need this money for?"
"That's right, little sister, take the money yourself. If you like to eat, go buy some delicious food."
Song Chengcai is an honest man and not good at speaking, but that's why Song Li feels that her family should help her.
Li Guizhi was so excited that she couldn't speak. That was more than a thousand yuan. She couldn't save up a thousand yuan in her entire life, and this idiot just said he didn't want it.
But Li Guizhi didn't dare to say anything. Her sister-in-law's status in the Song family was not comparable to hers. Moreover, she had discovered in the past two months that her sister-in-law had really changed. As long as you treat her well, she will treat you better.
Look, I just help take care of the child. She buys meat and brings snacks, and now she also bought clothes and toys for Xiaohua for the New Year.
Li Guizhi felt that even her own sister could not do this, so she must not anger her sister-in-law.
She watched with a worried look on her face, and the corners of her clothes were almost torn to pieces by her.
In the end, it was Zhang Xiu who spoke. They only wanted 500 yuan, the old couple would keep 300, and the second and third brothers would each get 100 yuan of the remaining 200 yuan, after all, it was their contribution.
Besides, if you have some money during the Chinese New Year, you can save more for next year.
Zhang Xiu was rarely generous. Although it was ten times less than the original amount, it was real money that Li Guizhi could get. She had no complaints and the smile on her face was almost reaching the back of her head.
