My parents are both dead, I rely on fishing and farming to support my younger siblings
Chapter 492: The Method to Defeat the Enemy
Han Mei gritted her teeth and said, "I'll try to collect some money, maybe I can get 10,000 taels."
Han Mei didn't want to watch Song Mengyun make the money.
"Hmph! You are so cunning! Okay! Then let's do as you say, I will go and collect the money later, and we will go to make soap tomorrow!" Song Mengyun snorted coldly.
After the two of them had discussed it, they went to the Donghai Town Silver Shop together.
Here, Gu Lili replenished the warehouse with 5,000 bars of soap and then went to work in the fields.
But when he was harvesting rice, he was obviously absent-minded.
Although he had earned a lot of money today from the rewards, he was still worried about Yin Jiuchen.
"Li Li, you are so amazing! It's a pity that we were busy harvesting rice today and didn't see you being conferred the title of Princess in person!"
Aunt Zhang's words brought Gu Lili back to her senses.
Gu Lili shook her head and said with a smile, "Aunt, I'm just lucky, not as amazing as you say."
As early as lunch today, the news that Gu Lili was conferred the title of princess had spread.
So, when Gu Lili first came to the rice field, everyone stopped what they were doing and saluted her.
Gu Lili quickly asked everyone to stop being polite and reminded them to just behave as before without being too polite.
"Lili, you are a princess now, so don't go to work in the fields. I have never heard of a princess working in the fields." Aunt Zhang covered her mouth and laughed.
Aunt Zhang was thinking in her heart, Gu Lili is really a unique girl.
When most people become rich, they only think about enjoying themselves, but Gu Lili is different.
She did everything herself and didn't even have a maid by her side.
Gu Lili was worried at the moment, so she followed Aunt Zhang's instructions and went home.
The Fuso Kingdom has always been cunning. Gu Lili decided to think of some way to help Yin Jiuchen defeat Fuso and win the victory as soon as possible.
The tranquilizer gun is obviously not suitable for large-scale use. Not only is it expensive, it will also arouse suspicion.
Then there are the hot weapons, which Gu Lili does not want to bring to this era.
Gu Lili was lying on the bed, flipping through the Space Business Dictionary while thinking about how to deal with the situation.
Suddenly, the Kongming lantern came into Gu Lili's eyes.
Gu Lili jumped up immediately!
We have found a way to repel the enemy!
Gu Lili immediately conveyed her idea to Uncle Facai, and then went back to work in the fields.
Looking at Gu Lili who came back, Aunt Zhang was a little confused.
Uncle Fa Cai over there had almost collected all the blue crabs, and after receiving Gu Lili's instructions, he rushed non-stop towards the border between Nanyue Kingdom and Fuso.
Early the next morning, Han Mei and Song Mengyun came to get the soap with 25,000 taels of silver.
Gu Lili counted the banknotes and gave them all the soap.
Han Mei and Song Mengyun got the soap and left Gu's house.
He rushed to Beijing without even having lunch.
They planned to return to Shangjing as soon as possible and exchange the soap in their hands for silver.
To avoid long nights and many dreams.
However, when they returned to Shangjing, they were completely dumbfounded.
The soap that was once sought after by all the ladies and young ladies has become unpopular.
Because, there are only a few businesses selling soap in Shangjing now.
Everyone was scrambling to buy scented soap, and they didn't care even though the price of scented soap was many times more expensive than soap.
Of course, it’s not that no one is interested in soap, it’s just that the price can’t be sold at that price.
Previously, the Han family raised the price of soap tenfold, but now the price has dropped from ten taels, nine taels, eight taels to five taels, and no one is buying.
Song Mengyun and Han Mei were so upset that they could not even cry.
In the end, the two of them parted unhappily because of the soap incident.
Later, Gu Lili heard that Han Mei's soap finally made a loss of two taels before she sold it slowly.
However, Song Mengyun did not know how to adapt and remained determined not to lose money. In the end, thousands of bars of soap became heirlooms of the Song family.
However, these are all things that happened later.
Now Gu Lili is busy harvesting and drying rice all day and has no time to take care of other things.
Gu Lili was busy harvesting and drying the rice for more than twenty days, almost a month.
That day, after the last harvest of rice was dried, Uncle Fa Cai also came back.
Although Gu Lili's family has many houses, if they pile up so much rice, it will definitely cause a rat plague.
Moreover, the taste of rice changes as it is stored for a long time.
Therefore, after Uncle Fa Cai came back, Gu Lili paid the taxes immediately and "sold" 90% of the remaining money to Uncle Fa Cai.
It is said to be selling, but in fact it is just a disguised way of putting the rice into Gu Lili's space.
In the space, there is no need to worry about the rice being eaten by mice, nor does it need to worry about the rice becoming stale over time.
Whenever you need it, you just need to "buy" it.
After the rice is harvested, we start planting wheat.
This time, Gu Lili not only planted wheat, but also rapeseed!
This time, the emperor rewarded Gu Lili with 500 acres of fertile land. Gu Lili decided to plant 300 acres of land for wheat, 200 acres for rapeseed, and the remaining 100 acres, Gu Lili took advantage of Uncle Fa Cai's excuse and bought several thousand kilograms of potatoes for Uncle Fa Cai in front of everyone.
Everyone still came to help Gu Lili after finishing their own work.
As the amount of land increased, Gu Lili asked the village head to help find many people from neighboring villages to help.
Because there were so many people helping out, it was naturally difficult for Gu Lili's family to provide meals.
Therefore, Gu Lili added three cents more and worked at Gu Lili's house for a day, earning him twenty-three cents.
Although meals were no longer provided, the wages were increased.
People from the neighboring village even rushed to help Gu Lili's family farm.
It was far to go home for dinner, so they all brought their own dry food.
Everyone wanted to earn more money before winter so they could buy some thicker clothes for their family.
With more people helping, Gu Lili no longer had to go to the fields.
She just asked Wei Yin and a few secret guards and Li Tiansheng to watch them work, and she began to develop the formula of medicated soap.
After repeated experiments, Gu Lili has figured out the formula ratio.
There are enough people farming now, so Gu Lili's soap workshop became busy again.
Because more and more merchants were buying soap, Gu Lili reserved the previously expanded yard for making soap.
The room that was originally used for soap and maltose was now used specifically for making maltose.
Everything is going in an orderly manner.
The autumn wind gradually brought cool breezes, and the girls' school was officially built.
Gu Lili discussed with Lin Xiyao and Lord Lin and decided that since the school was to be built in Gu Zhuang, they might as well call it Gu Zhuang Girls' School.
This day was the day when the girls' school began to recruit students.
Early in the morning, Gu Lili and Lord Lin's family were already at the gate of the girls' school.
Seeing the plaque hung high on the gate of the girls' school, it meant that in the future, girls in Gu Zhuang and even the surrounding areas would be able to read.
