Song Yuyan is safe and sound this time, all thanks to her friends and neighbors who are willing to speak for her. Although her neighbors follow the crowd, she still thanks everyone sincerely, and paid a lot of money for it , sent two eggs to everyone who spoke for her.

Don't worry about her missing something, after all, Miss Tang is afraid that someone will say something wrong about Song Yuyan, so she keeps watching quietly, and has already recorded those neighbors who have said good things for Song Yuyan.

Those neighbors got two eggs, which is not too little. After all, they can get eggs just by saying a few words for Song Dalang, which is already a profit.They were very happy, and felt that their relationship with Song Dalang had become much closer.

And Song Yuyan's friends, she would naturally thank them grandly.For those poor scholars who lack pens, inks, papers and inkstones, she gave them a writing brush and a piece of paper, which she made by herself.

As for Uncle 21 and Aunt Lie, they both yelled: "Thank you, we didn't do anything. The reason why you are fine is because you are upright. We don't want your things, otherwise we will look so vulgar!"

Song Yuyan had no choice but to help their shop think of ways to increase their turnover on weekdays.

Finally came Tang Zhi, Tang Zhi said: "I have not been of any help in this matter, so you don't have to thank me at all."

The neighbors all spoke up for Song Yuyan, but she couldn't do more for Song Yuyan. Thinking about it, she felt a little ashamed.

Song Yuyan said seriously: "If the little lady hadn't justified my name in front of the neighbors in the neighborhood, how would I have had the chance to change my mind in front of them? In terms of kindness, the little lady helped me the most. They were actually right, and the little lady said He is Song Yuyan's lucky star."

Song Yuyan also figured it out through this incident. Even if Tang Zhi spoke for the original owner in the previous life, her good words alone were not worth the evil words of dozens of neighbors. Therefore, Tang Zhi has always been the Tang Zhi with a sharp mouth and a tofu heart. , It is not because of her change that she has changed her nature.

After a lot of thought, she finally decided that after Tang Haogen's marriage was over, she would propose marriage to the Tang family... As a girl, going to another girl's home to propose marriage was quite a novel experience.

The next thing she has to do is probably to focus on making money. If there is no money, there is no bride price. She doesn't want Tang Zhi to be gossiped by neighbors.

Song Yuyan also thanked Qi Ru, although he didn't seem to help much, but he also attracted her many people who were willing to speak for her.

Qi Ru was very embarrassed, and said directly: "No need to thank you, no need to thank you."

Song Yuyan asked him why he came to visit the home that day, Qi Ru became more and more embarrassed, and it took him a while to explain the purpose of his visit.

He really came here for Shuxiu, because the rent of the place where he lives has risen. Originally, he only taught for half a day, and what Shuxiu received was enough for him to feed and feed. It is too big, and the rent has risen, so he has no choice but to charge more Shuxiu.

Song Yuyan felt that it was understandable for him to do so, but she would also think that Qi Ru's current focus was on studying, and as a teacher, he was not too responsible for the students.

She said: "Mr. Qi, has it ever occurred to you that traveling thousands of miles is worse than reading thousands of books? It's not that you want to go out and travel, but working behind closed doors is also a bad idea. Mr. Qi can communicate with people more on weekdays and learn from each other, and maybe he can gain more. "

The imperial examinations at this time are different from those in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The Ming and Qing Dynasties required memorization by rote, but today's Jinshi Department attaches great importance to poetry, Fu, and theory.Qi Ru can't write good poems by himself, and his understanding of Fu and Lun may also be insufficient.

Song Yuyan also used Du Yan and others as an example. With Du Yan's examples first, Qi Ru would not think that Song Yuyan was talking nonsense, but instead asked her seriously.

This was also one of the purposes of his visit. It was impossible for Song Yuyan to be recognized by so many scholars just because of her green bamboo carvings.He could see some clues from Sun'er's handwriting, and thought that Song Yuyan, who could teach Sun'er such tangible characters, should not be an illiterate and vulgar person.

Song Yuyan put forward her own opinion. She believed that Qi Ru could teach while reading without causing conflict between the two.

The "teaching" in later generations refers to social moral education, but here Song Yuyan slightly changed its meaning, to let Qi Ru participate in more poetry meetings, literary meetings, and outings, and he can also bring his own if it is convenient. A group of students, taking advantage of the gathering, such as the poetry meeting will inevitably gather a lot of poets, then Qi Ru can use this opportunity to make the group of poets also become teachers of the students.

This is a free teaching resource, so don't use it for nothing.Moreover, his group of students have basically learned to read characters after studying for so long, and they have also started teaching from "Tongmengxun" to the familiar "Primary School". .

This is a lively and active age, if you can take them out to "play", it will be easier for them to learn.

Qi Ru didn't take it seriously at first, until he heard Bing'er reciting "The Analects of Confucius", doodling on the paper while reciting.He asked Binger if he knew the meaning, and Binger could give a rough answer. He asked where Binger learned it from, and Binger said that it was taught by his elder brother.

Qi Ru was completely dumbfounded, thinking that Song Lufang was indeed a capable person with both talent and learning.Then the method she proposed just now must not be nonsense, these experiences must be accumulated from her daily dealings with people, and he should learn from them with an open mind.

So not long after, Sun'er ran back and said to Song Yuyan, "Mister said he would take us out for an outing."

Song Yuyan nodded: "Be careful, don't go to the water to play, don't eat food given by strangers, don't go with strangers."

Sun'er listened to her as if she was chanting scriptures, so she didn't mind nagging, and finally relayed these words to Bing'er: "Second brother went to Dabaoshan for an outing and didn't come back in the evening. Eldest brother is unreliable. Don't go to the water to play when you are alone at home. , don’t eat food from strangers, don’t go with strangers, got it?”

Cake: "..."

After Lou Gao and the others found out that Song Yuyan had almost been "framed", they dragged her out for a drink to calm her down.Song Yuyan went to Lou Gao for the sake of face, but he didn't drink any wine.

Lou Gao said: "I heard from Bai Can that you used to drink well, why did you stop drinking all of a sudden?"

Song Yuyan said: "I'm afraid I won't be able to find my way home after drinking at night."

Bai Can secretly whispered in Lou Gao's ear: "Actually, Miss Tang doesn't let him drink, so I only drink a few sips when we eat wine with him, and dare not go back until the smell dissipates."

Lou Gao was taken aback: "Isn't that right? Song Dalang is so strictly controlled before the two get married. If they get married in the future, what's the deal?"

Song Yuyan: "..."

In fact, it was not as exaggerated as Bai Can said at all. The reason why she had to sit for a long time after drinking before going back was because she wanted to wait for the alcohol to wear off before walking, otherwise she vomited halfway, which would be so embarrassing.

Although Lou Gao complained about this matter, he didn't force Song Yuyan to drink it. The relationship between him and his wife was there, and he put himself in the same way as others. Naturally, he also hoped that Song Yuyan's "family harmony".

Several people chatted about the wax garden while drinking.

By the end of July, the male larvae in the wax garden had already secreted a lot of white wax. From the outside, the wax garden looked like a layer of white snow was spread on the branches.People from Mingzhou who had never seen such a scene stopped to watch when they passed by, and then went home and told people that it was snowing in the "Sanguoshan Wax Garden".

Liu Chuo heard such rumors and wanted to run to see what was going on.Lou Gao's father, Lou Hao, knew what was going on, so he raised it with Liu Chuo.

Liu Chuo wondered: "Your son is actually raising white wax worms?!"

Now he wanted to see it even more, so he led everyone to the "Sanguo Mountain Wax Garden", and then saw a familiar figure - Song Yuyan.

Liu Chuo learned that Song Yuyan and Lou Gao made this wax garden... Bai Can had already been neglected by him, so he thought, Song Lufang is indeed a strange person, and any handicraft skills seem to be easy for him. It was easy to figure it out.

Tang Haogen also mentioned her paper making, Liu Chuo: "..."

It's a pity that there is no such department as the court general in the government office of the Mingzhou government, otherwise he would have hired Song Yuyan and asked her to vigorously promote these handicrafts.

Liu Chuo walked around the Wax Garden, and heard Lou Gao boast that the lighting conditions in Mingzhou would gradually improve in the future. He was also very satisfied, and encouraged qualified farmers to learn from Lou Gao and raise white wax worms.

Farmers: "..."

They really want to learn, but the problem is that they need to know how to raise white wax worms!It is said that when the number of insects increases, it will cause headaches for farmers, but if it is breeding, the high mortality rate will cause headaches for farmers.Except for the workers in the wax garden, no one knows why the Lou family can raise so many white wax worms.

They also tried to learn from people in the wax garden, but as a result, each worker was only responsible for a certain area, and they didn't know anything else.They also signed Lou's non-disclosure agreement, if it gets out, the consequences they bear may have them spend the rest of their lives in the wax garden.

It was Bai Can who thought of a business opportunity - the reason why no one in Mingzhou raised white wax worms before was because they didn't understand, and because they didn't meet the conditions.There are few ash trees in Mingzhou, and the ash trees in the wax garden are still transplanted from other places. However, according to the current development trend, the wax garden will inevitably expand, and there may be other wax households. Then the privet tree and the ash tree The trees are very marketable, why doesn't he plant some ash trees and sell them to the wax garden in the future?

Although he was only a lumberjack before, he also knew the technique of grafting. As long as he could find some branches of privet and ash trees, he could find a way to feed them.

He shared this idea with Song Yuyan, and Song Yuyan said: "It takes at least three years for the ash tree to grow enough to hang worms, and after three years, the market for ash worm breeding has just developed, and this business can be done."

Bai Can was greatly encouraged, but in order to plant ash trees, he had to have the capital to build an ash tree garden.At first, he felt that it was not good for him to leave Song Yuyan and Lou Gao behind, so he wanted to pull them to do it together.Song Yuyan said that he came up with it himself, so she would not run to share a share with him.

It was only then that Bai Can went to look for Lou Gao, but Song Yuyan mainly talked about the matter with Lou Gao back then, and Bai Can was not as good at fooling around as she was, and Lou Gao also wanted to see his plasticity again, so he asked Lou Gao many times. No answer.

Bai Can went to learn from Song Yuyan how to write a planning plan, etc. After he figured out why Lou Gao refused to agree, he specialized in this aspect, and listed many prospects for the planting industry: "In addition to Mingzhou, Hangzhou, Yue Few people in Zhouzhou, Wenzhou, Taizhou, etc. raise white wax worms, if we can spread the white wax worm breeding industry, why worry about our trees not being sold?"

Lou Gao said to Song Yuyan: "You taught him this. I have worked with him for a year, and I still don't know him well!"

Song Yuyan did not deny that Lou Gao agreed to Bai Can after the first batch of white wax was produced.

It was previously speculated that the wax garden could produce tens of thousands of candles, which were all estimated based on the number of insect eggs, but when the first batch of candles were produced, Lou Gao really felt that Song Yuyan said "the candle industry is sustainable." "That's right.

As long as there is a scientific method of cultivating white wax worms, it will not be difficult to increase the production of white wax, and the supply of candles will increase. As long as the price drops, they can enter the homes of ordinary people.

Lou Gao is a businessman, so he will settle this account.How many wealthy households can afford candles right now?Suppose there are 40 wealthy households in Mingzhou who buy a candle for [-] yuan, and they buy [-] candles, which is only [-] yuan.And if there were [-] candles, they would have to use them up.

In other words, instead of continuing to take the high-end route, it is better to increase production and sell it to ordinary people at a preferential price.We must know that [-]% of the people in Mingzhou are well-off and below. If the price of candles is not so high, many people will be willing to spend money on candles. After the cost is reduced, the base will be larger, and the profit will be even greater. many.

At the beginning of August, "San Guo Shan Candle Shop" opened, and candles from "San Guo Shan Wax Garden" were launched at the same time.

There are several kinds of candles. The most expensive one is white wax made of head wax. This kind of candle is white in color and has a smooth surface. best choice.

The second is the secondary wax with a slightly yellowish color. This kind of candle is cheaper than the head wax because of its not-so-good appearance, but even if it is the secondary wax, its brightness is not inferior to that of the head wax.

There are also cheap candles for weddings and weddings.

For the first two kinds of candles, there will be a shallow imprint under each candle, and the imprint is made of gold powder, which makes the imprint very eye-catching.And this imprint is the name of the candle shop, which is the trademark and anti-counterfeiting mark of the candle shop.

The last thing that attracts young men and women's favor is a kind of candle in a small bamboo tube. Various flowers and poems are engraved on the treated bamboo green, which looks exquisite and full of elegance.

The guy who sold this candle was trained and told the story behind the idea of ​​it. The general idea is that this candle is a poor scholar who met a rich girl who fell in love with him while attending the Lantern Festival. The two fell in love quickly. They fell in love, but the woman's family disliked the poor scholar, so they didn't want them to continue their relationship.

Later, the scholar could not see love, so he could only study while working to subsidize his family. Later, he went to work in a candle shop and accidentally knew that his lover's home would buy candles here regularly, so he came up with a plan. This candle is then engraved with poems or paintings on the surface of the bamboo to let the lover know his heart.

The family of the rich girl finally found out, and they were also moved by the scholar's affection, and said to the scholar, "I will marry my daughter to you when you pass the exam."

Later, the scholar worked hard to study, and he really got the honor in the exam, and finally married his sweetheart smoothly, and everyone was happy in the story.

The woman who always prefers this kind of object that is the most affectionate, after hearing the story behind it, immediately bought a lot of them back.

And the familiar Liuqing bamboo carvings on the small bamboo tube made the literati recognize at a glance that it was Lufang's work. They didn't care about the story behind it, they thought the candle was cheap because of these Liuqing bamboo carvings alone.

The rich second generation headed by Zhao Yu quickly sold out, and even urged the candle shop to release the second batch of candles quickly.The shopkeeper of the candle shop bit the bullet and went to find Song Yuyan.

Tang Zhi jumped ahead of Song Yuyan and said, "Her fingers are blistered, so she can't rush to work anymore. Besides, it's because your shop doesn't know how to do business! Can't you limit the purchase!"

The shopkeeper said: "It's useless, they can ask others to buy it for them!"

Tang Zhi taught him how to do business: "Why do you care who they let them buy? The more people they get to buy, the more lively the shop will be. If it is so lively, the people will think that the things in the shop are good, and they will definitely come in to join in the fun... "

Shopkeeper: "..."

He has been a shopkeeper for so many years, and for the first time, he realized that he is actually better at running a shop than a 16-year-old girl? !

Then the candle shop introduced a purchase restriction policy. It is this kind of artistic candle. One person can only buy two pieces, and they will only be sold out.

As a result, many people will find that the business of this candle shop is really booming. When they want to buy candles for weddings and weddings, they will go here to have a look first.

As the creator of this candle, Song Yuyan, after hearing Lou Gao fabricate a story about a poor scholar and a rich girl using candles to make love, she said: "No, don't talk nonsense, I have never done such a thing!"

Lou Gao said with a smile: "Although you made it for Mrs. Tang, your story is still not good enough. It doesn't have the plot that the common people love most, so I changed it a little."

Song Yuyan: "..."

Knowing that she has somehow become a wealthy woman, Tang Zhi: "..."

Forget it, how to make money is fine.
