Chapter 0091 The Best Excuse (Sharing the Era with Interstellar People
Liu Guoxiang and Yi Zhongxiang looked at each other. Although they didn't know why they were calling them, they still walked up quickly.
"Sister-in-law, second brother, second sister-in-law, third brother, fourth brother, fourth sister-in-law, what are you talking about?"
Liu Guoxiang and her husband came to the door of the fourth room and greeted them with a smile.
"It's nothing serious."
Fan Yadi took over the conversation, "You're still talking about your relatives."
"Yes, youngest brother, sister-in-law, is there really nothing wrong with your relative?"
Yi Zhongyuan said with a serious expression, "No matter what, we still have to be careful, lest if something really happens, it will be too late to regret it."
Yi Zhongju said nothing, just looked at the couple with a smile.
Yi Zhongqi's expression became even more serious: "Youngest, we've discussed it and decided we should ask you about your relative."
"After all, they are relatives you have never met. If they have any thoughts, you may not be able to tell."
"We hope you will be more cautious."
Liu Guoxiang's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, but he still kept a smile on his face: "Brothers and sisters-in-law, have you heard any gossip?"
"Zhongxiang and I can swear that they are really my long-lost relatives."
Yi Zhongxiang also laughed: "Brothers and sisters-in-law, you should know what my character is like."
"If we weren't sure, we wouldn't dare admit it."
"Besides, Guoxiang and I are usually more cautious. If they really have any bad intentions, we will find out in time."
"We know you won't lie."
Yi Zhongyuan said hurriedly, "I know you guys would be on guard, but he showed up suddenly after all. What if..."
"Nothing will happen."
Yi Zhongxiang interrupted his second brother, "Guoxiang and I believe they are relatives from Guoxiang's biological father's side. The token she brought out is proof."
The main reason was that he didn't want his two good children to be discouraged by his brothers and sisters-in-law's suspicion.
After all, they were sent by the higher-ups to protect their own family.
How can we let them be suspected and distrusted?
After saying this, Yi Zhongxiang felt that it was a bit too much, so he added: "But we also appreciate the concern of my brothers and sisters-in-law."
"We also know that my brother and sister-in-law said this for our own good."
"But, you can't be suspicious of two good girls just because of this, right?"
Seeing that the youngest couple was determined, the brothers and sisters-in-law didn't say anything more.
Fan Yadi nodded: "Okay, since the youngest couple said so, let's believe them this time. Don't let this little thing ruin everyone's harmony."
Although Ou Guiying still had some doubts, she did not say anything.
"That's right, youngest."
At this time, Yi Zhongju spoke up, "We are installing lights and repairing roads. Can we ask the villagers to help?"
"It's almost early spring. If we take people away to build roads, won't the sweet potatoes rot in the fields? When will we be able to plant the wheat?"
Xie Xingfang was even more worried about this. "I don't know how the public society will arrange it."
"Shouldn't I ask Sanyaoke about this?"
Ou Guiying looked at Yi Zhongqi and asked, "Why don't you find a chance to ask?"
"What are you asking? If there are any arrangements, the Three Biteers will come and inform you personally."
Yi Zhongqi always spoke to his wife in a strong tone, "Otherwise he wouldn't be able to accomplish anything."
Fan Yadi: "That's true. If there's any arrangement, why would the officials come to inform us? There's no need for us to overthink it."
"Youngest, do you have any source of information?"
Yi Zhongqi looked at the silent youngest couple and asked, "I see that you don't seem surprised at all about installing lights and repairing roads."
"What's so surprising about this?"
Yi Zhongxiang laughed and said, "Fourth Brother thinks too highly of us. Where can we get any news?"
Star Live Room audience: [Oh my, why do I feel like the old couple in the Yaozu family are hiding something from the other ancestors? ]
I feel the same way.
[Do you think that the ancestor surnamed Ran is really the cousin of Liu Guoxiang's ancestor?]
[No, no, have you forgotten what she said to the two old ancestors when she visited the host's little ancestor's house?]
[And that captain...is she the cousin that Ran Zuzong mentioned today?]
This question caused a moment of silence in the live broadcast room.
Long Zhentao: [Don't speculate, everyone will know soon.]
【Ah, hello, General Long.】
[Does General Long know something? ]
[Need to ask? Of course.]
[Alright, just listen to General Long, stop speculating, and continue watching the live broadcast.]
Yi Zhongxiang and his wife were not aware of the situation in the live broadcast room. He talked to several brothers and sisters-in-law and exchanged glances with his wife.
After getting a nod from Liu Guoxiang, he told his brothers and sisters-in-law something he had been wanting to talk about recently: "Brothers and sisters-in-law, I have something to tell you."
"Just tell me if you have something to say. Why are you being so shy?"
Seeing him like this, Yi Zhongyuan felt like laughing.
"That's right."
The couple followed their brother and sister-in-law into the house and sat down. Then he whispered, "Cousin Guoxiang brought me some news. I think it's very suitable for our family to make a fortune together."
"What?"
When the people in the other rooms heard what the youngest said, their brain radars instantly turned on.
Could it be that that person wants to deceive the youngest and the entire Yi family?
Everyone thought so in their hearts, but did not show it on their faces. They just waited for the youngest couple to continue.
Yi Zhongxiang looked at everyone's different expressions and laughed inwardly, but he told them the plan that had come to his mind after Ran Qiaojun appeared:
"It's like this, cousin Guoxiang said that they have been running around outside for many years, and there is a way to make money that is suitable for our family."
"Especially for people like us who can't read."
"oh?"
Everyone was surprised when they heard this.
To be more precise, they are not similar: "What kind of way to make a fortune? Can it be the turn of a rough guy like us?"
Although they have not read much, they know that there is no such thing as a free lunch in the world.
If there is, it is a trap and it definitely cannot be a good thing.
But seeing the youngest one so mysterious and happy, the others continued to ask questions.
"Yes, my sister told us to each family to make our best dishes, and they would buy them and sell them outside."
When Liu Guoxiang heard what her husband said, she knew that he was planning to use her cousin who suddenly appeared to find a source of food for the Star Direct audience.
So he immediately cooperated and took over the conversation, "My sister and her friends work outside, they know a lot of people and have a wide sales channel, so they asked us if we are willing to do it?"
"Making food to sell?"
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment when they heard this. "What good food can we make at home? Won't it go bad if we keep it for too long?"
"At the beginning, I made some things that can be stored for a long time, such as boiled eggs, boiled sweet potatoes, or dried sweet potatoes."
Ever since Yi Zhongxiang heard from his little girl that interstellar audiences have no resistance to the food of this era, he has been thinking about related issues.
After a slight pause, he continued, "In order to prevent you from worrying about not making money, Xiao Ran is willing to give us the money, as long as you make the food and pay according to your requirements."
"Don't worry that they will deceive you."
"Yes, yes, my sister also said that the cost of making food should be calculated carefully, including the wages you pay for the work."
Liu Guoxiang added from the side.
These are what Yi Rongkun said to his parents according to the system prompts.
"The selling price is the cost price plus the profit you think is appropriate."
Yi Zhongxiang nodded and said, "Then we will buy it from you at the price you give us plus profit."
"Xiao Ran also said that in order to avoid attracting too much attention, they would only take the food from my house, and leave the rest to Guo Xiang and me."
"If you brothers and sisters-in-law are willing to try, just make your specialties. You don't need to put too much in each portion, but it's best to make more."
“There are a lot of people waiting to buy food.”
“Of course, the best materials must be used.”
"For example, when making dried sweet potatoes, never use rotten sweet potatoes. Otherwise, I won't buy them no matter how cheap they are."
Liu Guoxiang: "We also need to ensure cleanliness and hygiene. We can't do such shady things."
Listening to the couple's conversation, everyone fell silent.
This... If I can really make food and sell it, the family will have some income.
But what if all the food is wasted? What will we eat?
Besides, who knows if this thing will last long?
What if it doesn’t last long?
The audience in the StarCraft live broadcast room was so excited that they went crazy: [Is the ancestor looking for food for us? Right, right?]
[Star God, are you two ancestors planning to have all the ancestors make food to trade with us?]
【What should I do if I’m looking forward to it? 】
[Hurry up and agree to it, ancestors, please agree to it. I promise that you will not suffer any loss.]
[Please, ancestors, please agree quickly. I really want to eat the dried sweet potatoes that our ancestors talked about.]
[Ahhh, are our ancestors preparing to give us welfare? Please, please agree to this quickly. I want it no matter what you do.]
[Please, ancestors from the other families, please don't doubt it, agree quickly, and decide what you want to sell to us. Please, please, please!]
…
Yi Zhongxiang was unaware of the madness of the audience in the live broadcast room. Seeing that his brothers and sisters-in-law looked hesitant, he did not urge them.
After all, no one dares to make a decision easily before understanding the market.
Even he himself still couldn't believe that his family could be connected with interstellar people more than three thousand years later because of his little girl's system.
What's more, no one has enough food now. If you can't make money, the whole family will starve to death.
After a slight pause, he added, "Of course, if my brothers and sisters-in-law are unwilling, we won't force them."
"After all, this is a risky business, and no one wants to waste their hard-earned food."
"It's just that Guoxiang and I think this is an opportunity. We don't want our brothers and sisters-in-law to miss it. We don't have to make the same things, so we don't have to worry about competing for business."
"If this happens, every family will have an additional relatively stable income, and the children will be able to live a better life."
"Besides, since Xiao Ran and the others have proposed this, I believe they will find a way to sell the food they make every day."
"As for whether it will last, who can say for sure? But it's always good to give it a try, right?"
"Anyway, they charge whatever amount you make, and the money is settled on the spot. Whether we make a profit or a loss has nothing to do with us."
"If they can't make money, they'll ask us to stop. Don't you think so?"
Yi Zhongxiang spoke sincerely, and his brothers and sisters-in-law couldn't help but feel a little shaken after hearing it.
Yes, it’s always good to try.
What if it really happens?
So, Yi Zhongju spoke first: "Youngest, you are right, I think we can give it a try."
"How about this? I'll make fried peanuts and sell them. How about half a pound per portion?"
"Anyway, I still have a lot of peanuts. I didn't eat or sell the ones I got two years ago, and I got a lot more this year. I'm going to give it a try."
"Third brother, half a pound of peanuts is too much. Let's make it two ounces."
Liu Guoxiang reminded.
She thought of the pancakes she had made at home a few times before, and each one was cut into eight pieces.
Two taels of peanuts feels like more than one-eighth of a pancake.
"Two taels?"
Yi Zhongju was frightened by her suggestion, "Sister-in-law, isn't this too much?"
"What can two taels do?"
"Yeah, this is too small."
Yi Zhongyuan was also surprised and asked, "How many peanuts are there in two taels?"
Although the others didn't say anything, they all looked at Liu Guoxiang with a look that seemed a little off.
"Isn't this portion too small?"
After a brief silence, Yi Zhongqi couldn't bear it any longer and asked Yi Zhongxiang.
The latter smiled and said, "Don't worry, brothers and sisters-in-law. The customers just want to eat something new. What they require is quality. A small portion and a large quantity will be fine."
"Because there are so many people buying, if each portion is half a pound, how many portions can your peanuts be packed into, brother San?"
After a slight pause, Yi Zhongxiang couldn't help laughing again, "If there weren't really not two peanuts in one ounce, I would have asked you to pack one ounce each."
"Is this... really appropriate?"
"suitable."
Yi Zhongxiang and his wife answered in unison, "Brothers and sisters-in-law, just listen to us. No matter what food you cook, the portion doesn't need to be too large, but the quantity must be large."
"Then, I want to try it too?"
Fan Yadi smiled and said, "I'm an expert at making dried sweet potatoes. I'll make dried sweet potatoes and sell them then."
"Can you sell fried beans? Or should I just sell fried beans?"
Xie Xingfang glanced at her husband Yi Zhongyuan hesitantly and said, "How many beans do we have? We can sell them to the commune, or to my younger brother's wife and cousin."
Yi Zhongyuan glanced at his brothers and hesitantly suggested, "How about if one family makes something, the other families can sell that thing to that family. That way, we can make more."
"You can also collect them in the village, other villages, or even communes."
Yi Zhongqi also said, looking at his wife and asked, "Should our family make something to sell?"
Ou Guiying: "What to do? They have already said that we can store a few things. What else can we do?"
"Anything is fine."
Liu Guoxiang reminded, "As long as it's edible, it's fine."
"Of course, it's best to have something that's easy to divide into small portions, like stir-fried fish or something like that."
"That's a huge waste of fuel."
Ou Guiying said dissatisfiedly, "Their food doesn't need much oil to be fragrant. It won't taste good without enough fish oil."
"Sister-in-law, I'm just giving you an example. You can also think of other foods, such as pancakes."
Liu Guoxiang smiled and said, "Besides, you use a lot of oil, so you should take the cost into account. This way, you don't have to worry about it if it's not used up."
"Fourth sister-in-law, Guoxiang is right. The cost must be taken into account. You can't use it for free."
Yi Zhongxiang also smiled. "Besides, if you don't want to use oil, you can make other dishes, such as stir-frying green peppers. One will count as one serving."
When these words were spoken, everyone present stared at him.
