Chapter 252 Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li want to eat for free
"That's a good idea. I think it's feasible!"

After a while, Xu Yuchang suddenly started praising with excitement.

Because at this time he had already thought of the same problem as Yi Zhonghai and others. If they really set up a honey lemon tea beverage processing factory in the old city, they would definitely need more workers. Then he would have the opportunity to stay in the city!
Hearing his words, Xu Laosan, Sun Jinda, Ma Hongjun and the other three nodded in agreement, and the looks they gave Li Guoqiang were filled with admiration and a hint of worship.

In fact, due to the poor spiritual life these days, it is easier to generate personality cult. In addition, with the various amazing abilities that Li Guoqiang has demonstrated along the way, it is normal that he can gain some little fans.

Li Guoqiang looked at Xu Yuchang and the others who all agreed, and felt a little happy in his heart. Then he quickly said, "Okay! Then when you go back, first report the situation carefully to the captain and the others. At the same time, I will also write a letter for you to take back.

If they agree, then I will go ahead with this idea.”

"No problem, leave it to us, don't worry."

When Xu Yuchang heard what Li Guoqiang said, he immediately patted his chest and made a loud promise.

When Xu Laosan, Sun Jinda and Ma Hongjun saw that Xu Yuchang had taken the lead again, they could not help but glare at Xu Yuchang with some dissatisfaction, and then hurriedly expressed their opinions to Li Guoqiang.

"Qiangzi, don't worry! When we get back, we will definitely explain this matter clearly to the captain and the others."

"Yes, it's such a good thing, I believe they will support you."

"In short, just go for it! All the elders and folks in Jinshanbao will support you to the best of their ability."

"it is good!"

When Li Guoqiang heard their words, he couldn't help but cheer.

It was worth it that he specially prepared so many good things to entertain Xu Yuchang and others.

With the support of Xu Yuchang and others, he can now start preparing to open a honey lemon tea beverage factory.

In addition, because the packaged beverage production lines of that year were still very backward, and the honey production was not large at the beginning, his idea was to combine the business methods of the herbal tea stalls and milk tea shops in later generations, and first set up a honey lemon tea making workshop, and then hire people to pull a cart and sell it from street to street.

In this way, we can not only reduce a lot of operating costs, but also quickly occupy the market.

The only thing that is uncertain is whether the industrial and commercial administration department will allow him to do so.

Although he had the collective endorsement of the Jinshanbao Production Brigade, this had never been tried before.

If that doesn't work, then he can only temporarily open an office to sell raw honey materials.

Xu Yuchang and others naturally didn't know about this. They were now full of trust and admiration for Li Guoqiang.

Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were calmer than Xu Yuchang and others. At least before they saw Li Guoqiang set up the beverage factory, they would not fully believe that Li Guoqiang had the ability to do so.

But even so, their attitude towards Li Guoqiang was much more enthusiastic than before.

Just like Yi Zhonghai, he originally wanted to take this opportunity to ask Li Guoqiang about letting the guests move into He Yushui's house, and by the way, point out why Li Guoqiang did not tell him, an old man, in advance before doing such a thing.

But now, he didn't mention a word, as if he had forgotten about it.

Soon, most of the pot of honey lemon tea was drunk by everyone. Then, Li Guoqiang gave the rest to Luo Huijuan and others who were busy in the kitchen. They each had a bowl to try, and the tea received unanimous praise.

Girls like Luo Huijuan and Pan Qiaoyan, in particular, showed great enthusiasm for honey lemon tea.

Li Guoqiang was not surprised by this. After all, this honey lemon tea would still be very competitive in the market even in the heyday decades later, not to mention in this era of material scarcity.

According to his estimation, if he really met some greedy girls, selling a bowl to them for two or three cents would not be a difficult task at all.

After all, at that time, the Arctic Ocean, which was called orange soda, was sold for more than one cent.

This is a pure natural healthy tea made with honey, tea leaves and lemon, so naturally it has to be sold at a higher price.

If it was sold too cheaply, someone might even suspect that he was using fake materials!
In addition, the honey production of Jinshanbao is indeed not very large nowadays, so it is even more necessary to go for the high-quality and high-priced route.

In fact, he only used about half a pound of honey, one ounce of tea leaves and half a pound of lemon to prepare such a large pot of more than 20 bowls of honey lemon tea.

If a bowl can be sold for 3 cents, that means it can be sold for 7 or 8 yuan, which is almost three times the income compared to simply selling honey.

In this way, even if the cost of purchasing tea and lemons is deducted, the extra profit can support at least dozens of workers, and even bring more generous dividends to the villagers of Jinshanbao.

What's more, Li Guoqiang's little world still stores tens of thousands of kilograms of honey, and with the passage of time, the amount will increase several times.

At that time, he could sell his own honey to the honey lemon tea beverage factory in the name of purchasing, thus achieving a win-win result.

You can imagine how amazing the profits that so much honey can bring are.

In his memory, there was once a village in this era that acquired more than 100 million wealth in the name of the collective.

And he has the protection of his father Jin, and knowledge that is decades ahead of this era. No matter what, he can't do worse than others.

Not long after, Sha Zhu suddenly came out of the kitchen and shouted, informing everyone that it was time to eat.

Immediately afterwards, Luo Huijuan, Pan Qiaoyan and others brought out steaming dishes one after another.

Looking at the shiny, delicious and tempting dishes, everyone forgot what Li Guoqiang had just said.

Especially Xu Yuchang, Xu Laosan and others, their eyes were wide open.

You have to know that for them who came from a small mountain village, the most sumptuous and best-looking meals they had ever eaten were only a pig-killing banquet in the big canteen when the village first started to have big pot meals.

I have never eaten a super feast like this one, with chicken, duck, fish, meat, eggs and shrimp, all of which are so delicious and exquisite!

[It's worth it! It's really worth it to follow Qiangzi to Beijing this time! With such a big table of food, even if I sold myself, I probably wouldn't be able to afford it! ]

As they expressed their feelings, their gratitude towards Li Guoqiang deepened.

In their opinion, they were all here to help, not guests, and Li Guoqiang could easily send them away with some cornmeal and some vegetables and tofu.

However, Li Guoqiang not only did not do that, but he also invited them to a big restaurant in Beijing to eat a special roast duck, and now he even invited a chef to come back and make them such an unimaginable feast. This made them feel that they were valued.

In order to live up to this attention, they all made up their minds that they must follow Li Guoqiang's steps in the future. Even if Li Guoqiang asked them to eat cow dung, they probably would not hesitate.

Seeing how moved they were, Li Guoqiang felt a little happy. Then he hurried into the house and took out the pure grain wine he brewed from his little world.

Although these wines were brewed for less than half a year, with the additional tenfold reward, they were directly aged for five years.

In addition, he has already improved his winemaking skills to the L6 level, using the ancient secret method to make wine.

When he took out the wine and before pouring it into the bowl, Yan Bugui sniffed hard, then stood up abruptly and came forward, his face full of excitement, obviously craving for alcohol.

"Qiangzi, what kind of wine is this? It smells really good!"

At this time, Sha Zhu suddenly came over and asked with a curious look on his face.

"Ah!"

Li Guoqiang saw that Yan Bugui and Sha Zhu, the two old drunkards in the courtyard, were attracted by the wine in his hand. He couldn't help but feel a little funny, and then he smiled and said, "I asked a friend who works in a winery to get all this wine. I only have this jar in my hand. It will be gone after I drink it!"

"Then pour it quickly!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Bugui immediately began to urge him impatiently.

Sha Zhu looked at Li Guoqiang suspiciously, as if he didn't quite believe what Li Guoqiang said.

After all, he knew how capable Li Guoqiang was. He had just returned from the countryside and was able to find a way to get so many good ingredients. It didn't make sense that he could only get such a small jar of good wine?

However, after asking about the origins of the ingredients before, he knew that if Li Guoqiang didn't want to tell, then even if he asked, it would be in vain. So he didn't say anything else, but directly took a large bowl and placed it in front of Li Guoqiang, then signaled Li Guoqiang with his eyes to fill it up.

Upon seeing this, Yan Bugui's eyes rolled and he hurriedly went to get himself a big bowl, as if he was afraid that he would not drink enough and would suffer a loss.

When Li Guoqiang saw this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes, then picked up the wine jar with some annoyance and filled it for the two old drunkards.

As a stream of clear wine flowed out of the wine jar, a mellow aroma of wine also spread instantly, making Xu Yuchang and others who were watching on the side swallow their saliva unconsciously, and then scrambled to stand up and step forward to share the wine.

After a while, half of the jar of wine was gone, and then Li Guoqiang stuffed the wine into Luo Guofu's arms, asking him to be responsible for pouring wine for the guests later.

Seeing this, Luo Guofu immediately turned into a bitter face. He was about to complain, but Luo Huijuan stopped him with a look.

With no other options, he could only obediently serve as a temporary waiter.

Soon, under the invitation of Li Dawei and Yao Meilan, everyone started to eat and drink. The chewing sounds and exclamations could be heard even in the front yard.

Therefore, the people who suffered the most were naturally Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li.

They smelled the fragrance in the air, listened to the hustle and bustle coming from Li Guoqiang's courtyard, and then looked at the small basket of mixed flour buns and two plates of cold dishes in front of them, and felt nauseous.

Yu Li tried to hold back, but couldn't help but nudge Yan Jiecheng with her elbow, then lowered her voice and said, "Hey, when dad comes back after eating, will he bring some leftovers back to our house?"

"How should I know that?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Jiecheng immediately rolled his eyes and said.

After saying that, he hesitated for a moment, then suggested, "How about you make an excuse that you have something to do at home and go to Qiangzi's house to look for our dad and see if you can get some food for him?"

"This"

Yu Li frowned, then said with some embarrassment: "This is not good! After all, Qiangzi only hired a few uncles from our courtyard, and even Shazhu was invited to help with cooking after we lent him the house.

Besides, I don't have much friendship with Juanzi, so why would she bring me food for no reason?"

"Harmful!"

When Yan Jiecheng heard Yu Li's concerns, he quickly said, "Just because you didn't have any friendship before doesn't mean you won't have any in the future! Besides, the Li family are all very proud people. When they see you coming to their house, they have to greet you well no matter what.

Then, if they ask you if you have eaten, just say no, and that's it!"

"cut!"

Yu Li rolled her eyes, then spat in a somewhat unpleasant tone: "It's so easy to say, why don't you go?"

"I"

Yan Jiecheng was slightly stunned, then quickly defended himself, "I'm a man, representing the reputation of our family. You can't let me bring shame to our family, right?"

Hearing this, although Yu Li was reluctant, she had no way to refute it.

However, when she thought about Li Guoqiang's home, where not only Yi Zhonghai and others were present, but also Xu Yuchang, Xu Laosan and other guests from the countryside, she couldn't convince herself to go over and have a free meal.

After all, she didn't want to embarrass herself in the countryside.

Seeing that Yu Li had remained silent, Yan Jiecheng suddenly realized what was in Yu Li's mind.

Then, just when he was feeling a little regretful about this, Yu Li suddenly touched his arm, and then gently raised her chin towards the three aunts sitting opposite her.

[Yeah! Why didn’t I think of that? ]

Seeing the old face of the third aunt, Yan Jiecheng suddenly felt enlightened, and then he hurriedly smiled and asked: "Well, Mom, why don't you go see my dad? If he drinks too much, you will suffer tonight."

"Yup!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Li quickly agreed, "Mom, I think you'd better go and take a look."

The three aunts: “.”
