Crossing the famine, I am a poor fish, and my descendants have to work hard

It was almost 2 o'clock after we finished eating.

A few people decided to customize some money to ward off evil spirits and then went back.

The main concern is that the two pregnant women will be too tired.

Yasui Qian is a kind of evil-repelling pendant engraved with various auspicious words, similar to the circulating currency.

It can only be used for collection and wearing.

During the Chinese New Year, children will come to your house to pay New Year’s greetings, and you can give them some money to ward off evil spirits.

But the money for warding off evil spirits must be customized in advance. You can request the pattern and engraving yourself.

Several people estimated the number of children in the village.

I plan to order 40 strings, each string contains 5 pieces, one string for each child.

Based on the template, we selected some patterns with good meanings, and also matched them with "study hard", "make progress every day", "peace and joy", "success in everything", and "good health".

The shopkeeper said that I could pick it up in a few days and I just needed to bring the receipt.

40 strings of New Year's money cost 80 cents, and one string of money for evil spirits cost 2 cents.

It’s quite cheap.

Yes, if it’s more than a penny, it’s better to just give the money directly.

After ordering the money for warding off evil spirits, I went back.

After resting for a while at home, Qian Xiaohui asked Zhilan and others to come over to measure the size and get the cloth to make clothes.

Bai Wei and the other nine people were responsible for all the New Year's clothes and shoes for themselves and the men.

Zhang Qingyan is responsible for the family’s clothes and shoes.

Zhang Qingyan is currently in a research addiction phase, so this is a good opportunity for her to design.

Seeing that there was nothing to do, Zhao Yuanzhen started learning her archery again.

I haven't studied this for a long time since I injured my hand last time.

My hand has been healed for a long time, and I haven't had time to study.

Now that she had nothing to do, she started practicing again.

Now all the men in the family get up in the morning to practice sword-fighting, and the only female member who does it is Zhang Qingyan. Qian Xiaohui and Li Zhijuan have stopped practicing temporarily since they became pregnant.

I can finish learning the bow and arrow in two days.

After finishing her studies, Zhao Yuanzhen plans to install a few targets at home, and teach others while she becomes proficient in it.

I spent the whole time shooting arrows until dinner time.

Zhao Yuanzhen didn't plan to study in the evening. Although she wasn't physically tired, she was very mentally exhausted.

Zhang Qingyan is designing clothes.

I asked Lan Ying to prepare the bath water and planned to take a good bath to relieve my fatigue.

After taking a bath, I feel soft and fluffy.

She was lying on the bed in her inner clothes, leaning against a pillow.

Suddenly I wanted to make a facial mask.

I feel like I haven't really cared about my face since I came here.

Zhao Yuanzhen bought a ceramic bottle of mud mask.

She lay down, called Lan Ying over, taught her how to apply the mud mask, and then Lan Ying gently helped her apply it evenly.

Zhao Yuanzhen then taught her how to massage her head, shoulders, neck, arms, fingers, legs, calves and feet.

Lan Ying learned carefully and then gave Zhao Yuanzhen a 15-minute full body massage.

Zhao Yuanzhen felt so comfortable that she didn't want to move.

I asked Lan Ying to get some warm water, and then used a small wooden spatula to scrape off the mud film on her face, and then washed her face with a towel.

Then he taught Lan Ying facial stretching and massage.

Zhao Yuanzhen was lying down enjoying herself, and she felt dazed, as if something flashed through her mind, but she didn't catch it. She thought about it, but couldn't remember it. So she just continued to enjoy herself.

After finishing the facial massage, Zhao Yuanzhen washed it again with a towel and warm water. After applying the baby cream, she prepared to go to bed.

Lan Ying's technique is so comfortable that I feel drowsy now.

Today I will continue to finish learning archery techniques.

He also ordered people to make some targets.

In the afternoon, I will start teaching my children and grandchildren to practice archery.

The target for beginners is not that far away, only 20 meters.

Zhao Yuanzhen bought 30 of the most common wooden ox-tendon bows and bamboo arrows.

All men must learn, and women can learn on a voluntary basis. If they are willing to learn, they can come to class.

Although Qian Xiaohui and Li Zhijuan were pregnant and could not shoot arrows, they still came to listen to the theoretical class.

Zhang Qingyan and Lan Ying also want to learn.

Distribute the bows and arrows to each person, and return them after class. You can use them next time.

Zhao Yuanzhen started by explaining the theoretical knowledge of bows and arrows.

Including the fulcrum of the bow and arrow, how to exert greater force with the hands and fingers, and the experience of sight.

They were all taught one by one.

We made more than 20 targets, basically one for each person.

Everyone began to practice slowly according to Zhao Yuanzhen's teachings.

Zhang Xinbai, Zhang Xinnian, Zhang Xinshu and three others were practicing seriously.

When it comes to learning skills, they have always been serious and focused.

"Who among them is the best at swordsmanship?"

"Except for my aunt, Zhang Dao's swordsmanship is the best."

"Okay, I understand. Lan Ying, go call Zhang Dao over."

"Yes, ma'am."

"Hello, ma'am. What can I do for you?"

"From now on, you will be responsible for practicing sword skills in the morning and archery for an hour every day. You will be required to practice archery. You will record who practices and check it every day. For those who do not practice, you will be reminded for the first time, and you can directly record and report the second time."

"Zhang Dao understands. I will remember Madam's instructions."

Brother Zhang Xinbai and his three companions, things will only get busier and busier in the future, and some things must be diverted.

"Madam, I also want to learn swordsmanship. I hope you will grant my permission!"

Lan Ying suddenly knelt down and begged.

It's a rare opportunity to learn more skills, and she wants to learn them all.

"Well, sure. It's a good thing that you want to learn and love to learn. Just follow Aunt Qingyan to practice. Let her teach you."

Although Zhang Qingyan was the last one to learn, her swordsmanship is very good now. Moreover, her swordsmanship is steady and solid, which makes her very suitable for teaching others.

"Thank you, Madam. I will study hard."

"Well, Qingyan, you teach her swordsmanship in the mornings from now on."

"Okay, second sister-in-law."

Zhang Qingyan never expected that she would become a teacher.

Now the servants in the house have to learn to read at night, get up early to practice sword-fighting, and also take out an hour to practice archery.

Fortunately, it is winter now, and there is nothing to do at home, so it is not busy.

When spring comes in March and the ice thaws and the glaciers recover, we will start to get busy.

Fortunately, in more than three months, I was able to learn the basics of these, and I should be able to recognize the thousands of common words. I can't say that the bow and arrow hit the center of the target, but I think it can also miss the target. As for swordsmanship, no matter what I am assigned to do in the future, I can practice it as long as I get up early.

Ranged and melee now have skill points lit up.

Zhang Dao was thinking about the clocking in while practicing. He could understand the record of burning charcoal by the second young master. He asked the second young master to make a similar table. Write everyone's name on a wooden board with paint, and then change the date every day. Whoever practiced swordsmanship would punch a clock. This way, it would not be confusing and would be simpler and clearer.

The second young master recorded every carbon kiln in the same way.

Zhao Yuanzhen learned about everyone's archery skills for the whole afternoon. He corrected the postures of those who had them wrong and the fingerings of those who had them wrong.

They didn't disperse until it was almost time for dinner.

Before we left, I was taught a set of relaxation exercises for the whole body and arms, otherwise my arms would be sore when I woke up the next day.

After dinner, I took the pulse of both my daughters-in-law. Their pulses showed that they were both about two months pregnant.

Nothing unusual, everything is fine.

After giving a few more instructions, he went back.

Another person bought two cartons of milk.

Let Zhang Qingyan deliver it to each room.

When spring comes and flowers bloom, I will go to the mountains to "catch" a few cows.

Many dairy products can now be made openly.

The eight cooks in the house were well taught by Qian Xiaohui and Li Zhijuan, and they made many delicious snacks.

Sometimes people take away the snacks from Huabenpu to eat at home.

After listening to this, Qian Xiaohui and Li Zhijuan actively designed several cakes to be sold in the shop.

Finally, 8 kinds of pastries were decided.

From the eight-cent bean cake to the 200-cent honey-floating crispy flower, each has its own merits and characteristics.

There is a lot of brown sugar and white sugar collected in the space.

Zhao Yuanzhen found some time and went to the warehouse at home to place 50 kilograms of each.

After checking the warehouse, I found that the jujube, white fungus, bird's nest and peach gum were almost gone.

I bought 20 jin of Xinjiang jujube and 20 jin of Tremella from the mall. The Tremella in the mall is 5 jin per point. These are all artificially planted in later generations. They are relatively cheap.

I also bought a few pounds of bird's nest.

Peach gum is also very cheap, so I bought 20 kilograms.

These cost 38 points in total, which is enough to last for a while.

Bird's nest is more expensive, about 11 points per pound. But it should be cheaper than the bird's nest of Daliang Dynasty. Because she didn't know the exact price, the ones she ate before were bought by the servants.

Seeing that Tremella and Peach Gum were so cheap, Zhao Yuanzhen was wondering whether he should resell some Tremella.

The price of Tremella fuciformis in Daliang Dynasty was about 20 taels of silver per catty, and my own price was one point to five catties, which was equivalent to 200 coins per catty.

The benefits are more than 100 times.

I'll check the market tomorrow.

If feasible, build a Tremella fuciformis farm in the spring.

The Tremella fuciformis we cultivate ourselves not only has a high yield, but also grows large flowers. It saves us a lot of trouble compared to searching aimlessly in the mountains.

Although there are hot drinks in the Yinzipu in winter, the hot drink made of flower and fruit tea does not taste as good as the cold drink.

Maybe the two-story shop I bought before can be used to open a hot drink shop.

The cost of making your own Tremella fuciformis, bird's nest and dates is cheap.

You can grow your own dates and white fungus later.

Add milk.

There are also many dessert, milk tea and drink recipes that I know.

It feels doable.

In the past, I didn't dare to do these lucrative businesses, fearing that I couldn't keep them, but now my eldest brother is a third-rank general. If I want to touch her, I have to think twice.

The more I think about it, the better it seems. It would be best if I could open the business before the Spring Festival so that I can make a lot of money during the New Year.

Design the drawings first and decorate as soon as possible.

The shop is in the format of 16X10.

The two windows on the first floor are also made into floor-to-ceiling windows.

Then the side close to the north wall, except for the 2-meter-wide staircase on the westernmost side, was made into a 2X12-meter hot drink kitchen, and a bar was placed around the small kitchen.

Some glass can be installed on the side of the kitchen close to the bar, and more shipping windows can be made.

There are many big restaurants next to my shop.

The consumer group belongs to the middle and high end.
