After the third year of junior high school, Song Li had some free time. He Linyuan took her two children to the creek to skate, while she stayed at home to make wine.
The good wine that I promised to brew for Zhou Shaoli must be arranged.
Song Li sorted out the supplies in the space. The most consumed item now was clothes. She prepared a set of clothes for each member of the Song family during the New Year, not to mention herself and her two children. But even so, she could not wear all the clothes in the space.
She thought of selling some of them after the New Year, as once the economy liberalized, these things would be worthless.
And as for the cosmetics, Feng Mei’s girlfriends will definitely like them.
In addition to the collected supplies, the land in the space was upgraded again, and now she has thirty square meters of land.
There were two jujube trees, two pear trees, two peach trees, and two apple trees each. Wild grapes occupied half of the land for making wine, various vegetables occupied one other land, and the remaining half was planted with medicinal herbs.
Song Li doesn't consume much medicinal materials nowadays. Currently, the most grown ones are wolfberry and ginseng.
This is a good thing. The space was upgraded twice in a row because of it. Moreover, Song Li grew a hundred-year-old ginseng. With time, she can also grow a thousand-year-old ginseng.
Looking at the fruitful space, Song Li felt full of satisfaction.
This is the guarantee for her to gain a foothold in the 1970s.
Although it has been several months since she traveled here, Song Li still feels uneasy. She has been living in a precarious situation in the apocalypse for too long, and she is always feeling a sense of crisis.
Especially since she was wearing a book, Song Li was very afraid that the heavens would automatically set things right, and then she, He Linyuan and their two children would be wiped out.
She would never allow it!
So she couldn't lie down, she had to at least stand higher to protect her family.
In less than half a month, she brewed peach wine, sorghum wine and ginseng wine. The ginseng she used was ten-year-old, which was enough to nourish the body.
She didn't plan to sell this wine, so she gave it to her family.
She also figured out the origin of the ginseng. The mountains behind Daxingtun were rich in resources, and the original owner was very strong and often went to places that others could not reach. She said that she had picked ginseng, but no one could verify it.
The wine is good and business is booming.
Feng Mei came in person. She was riding a bicycle with a thin layer of snow on her body.
Fortunately, she has been drinking red date and wolfberry tea these days, which has sufficient blood and qi to resist the cold, otherwise she would have caught a cold walking in the cold wind.
"Sister, how much wine do you have left? I want all of it!"
As soon as Feng Mei entered the door, she couldn't wait to ask Song Li that ever since she gave gifts to her good friends during the Chinese New Year, the phone at home had never stopped ringing.
Everyone who tasted the wine liked it and asked her where she bought it.
Even her eldest uncle Liu Xuemin asked her at a family dinner.
Feng Mei had never received such attention before. She was so happy that she came to Song Li to buy wine before the New Year was even over.
"There are still twenty bottles left. They were originally reserved for my family to drink. If I want them, I'll give them to you first."
"Okay, then I'll take them all."
Feng Mei was not polite at all and counted out ten big unity notes for Song Li.
Twenty bottles may seem like a lot, but each family only has one bottle. It would be great if the business could grow bigger.
She had to drink a glass of this wine every night, and if she had enough money, she would have kept all twenty bottles.
For the first time, Feng Mei felt short of money.
Song Li was also thinking about Feng Mei's abilities. She had a wide network of contacts and was good at socializing, making her the most suitable candidate for sales. Moreover, Feng Mei was originally a salesperson in a shopping mall. Once her winery was built, she would definitely recruit Feng Mei to be a top salesperson.
......
After finishing his work, Song Li went to the county town again. He gave the soap necklaces and other items in the space to Xiang Qian to sell, and then took the brewed wine to Qi Huaiyu and Zhou Shaoli.
Zhou Shaoli was fond of drinking. When he was young, he had drunk countless fine wines, but few of them were to his taste.
But no matter whether it is Songli wine, peach wine, sorghum wine or ginseng wine, every bottle is of top quality.
Zhou Shaoli tasted a cup of each and couldn't bear to drink any more.
"This is a ginseng wine. It tastes quite old. The little girl is really willing to spend money on it."
Ginseng can't be sold at a high price these days, but it's a good thing and a treasure that can be passed down to the family. Song Li actually decided to make some wine.
"No matter how good it is, it's just a medicinal herb. You and my master have suffered for so many years, and it's time to replenish your body."
Song Li's words made Zhou Shaoli's heart burn, and for the first time he felt jealous of his good friend.
"You're so lucky to have met Li Yatou."
Why doesn't he have this luck? Although he doesn't know medical skills, he is good at business. If he had met Song Li earlier, this little apprentice would be his.
Looking at Zhou Shaoli's grief-stricken expression, Qi Huaiyu's face wrinkled with smile.
"Huh! Are you jealous? Why don't you teach Li Yatou some real skills? Otherwise, I'm ashamed of you for just eating and drinking for free every day!"
They have been good friends for half their lives and understand each other best. Zhou Shaoli has attended a private school and studied abroad. He is a capable man who has seen the world. He has to seek benefits for his little apprentice.
Hearing what his master said, Song Li held his breath with excitement.
"Okay! If you're willing to get involved in this money-making business, then I'll teach you how to do business."
"I do!"
This is really like a pillow being given to someone when they are sleepy. With the reform and opening up approaching, it will be an opportunity for the vigorous development of individual businesses and private enterprises. Although she has the foresight and the materials, she does not know how to run a business.
When the end of the world came, Song Li had just graduated from university. She had no work experience and only knew the basics of business. Now that someone was willing to teach her, she must seize the opportunity.
"Okay, then you will be my disciple from now on!"
With two masters, Song Li's life became even busier.
In the morning, she took classes with her two masters, and in the afternoon she went back to cook and make wine.
The Lantern Festival arrives quietly in such busyness.
Song Li promised Qingqing to make a rabbit lantern for her and had already bought the rice paper and frame in advance.
It was also Song Li’s first time to do handicrafts. She learned from the reference book for half a day and then started working right away.
He Linyuan and He Mingze, the father and son next to them, had their own ideas, but Song Li didn't ask them what they wanted to do.
The rabbit lantern was simple, and Song Li made one quickly. It was just a bit rough the first time, and the rabbit ears were all different sizes, but it was enough to make Qingqing happy.
"Mom is so great. Qingqing likes this rabbit so much."
The little girl couldn't let go of the lantern. Song Li felt embarrassed by her daughter's support. Her craftsmanship was not even enough to fool a child.
When she looked at He Linyuan and his father, she felt even more inferior.
Mingze made a moon lantern. Song Li told him about the moon a few days ago, and the little guy was very interested. When he lit the lamp in the lantern, the shadow outside looked like the surface of the moon when it was full.
Song Li rubbed her son's head and praised him generously, "Xiao Ze is awesome."
Mingze pursed her lips and smiled shyly, "For Mom."
His mother bought him so many things, and this was the first time he gave his mother a gift.
Song Li was flattered. She hugged Mingze and gave him a big kiss. "Thank you, son. Mommy likes it very much!"
The mother and son were very affectionate, while the man beside them silently hid the lantern in his hand behind his back.
