My whole family has crossed with Goldfinger

Chapter 99No.90 Chapter Nine: Shop
With toothpaste and shampoo, Xu Yinyin began to study the prescription of soap.

Soap is easy to make.

After Xu Yinyin's research was clear, she asked old man Xu to buy the things she needed, and immediately started to do it.

Quicklime is added to water to obtain lime water, and then caustic soda is added to the lime solution for a chemical reaction, and the generated calcium carbonate will sink to the bottom, and the remaining solution is the lye needed for making soap.

Once you get the lye, you can start crafting.

This recipe can be made with both soap and scented soap, so Xu Yinyin decided to make both. Soap is convenient for washing clothes, and soap is good for washing hands and face.

For oil, use the simplest lard.

First heat the lye and lard together, and keep stirring during the heating process. After boiling, continue to heat with low heat to fully saponify the oil, and keep stirring during the process. This process takes a long time.

After more than half of the water has evaporated, it is poured into molds to cool and form. The molds are specially made by people in the village who know carpentry.

Adding salt before cooling can increase the hardness of the soap, and soap is produced after about an hour.

The two long and square pieces of white soap, about the size of a palm, made old man Xu smack his lips, "Is this soap? It's for washing clothes? It looks like a piece of lard!" It was the lard that made this shaped.

This used a lot of lard, and old man Xu still felt a little distressed, but when he heard his granddaughter say that this bar of soap would sell for at least twenty Wen, he quickly calculated the account in his mind, and then he fell silent.

Xu Yinyin experimented with two pieces, and then made the second pot, which made a big pot full.

Spices and flower petals were added to the pot, poured into round, flower-shaped, pumpkin-shaped molds, etc., cooled and formed, and it became a piece of soap.

"Is this soap? Can you wash your face?" Old man Xu looked at it, and was speechless in surprise. He obviously didn't buy dyes or anything. How can this soap be made in such a beautiful color?
He couldn't say it, he just felt that Si Ya's granddaughter was really powerful.

In my heart, I am more confident about opening a shop. His granddaughter moves so fast, so he can't be slow.

Therefore, in the early morning of the second day, when Xu Dajun went to the city, he also went with him.

Three of Xu Dajun went to school, one went to school, and the other went to work.

Old man Xu went to Fang's house.

Fang Changxu had heard Xu Dajun's words a long time ago, knowing that he would come to the city to see the shop today, so we went to order a mao early in the morning and came back.

Now he took old man Xu out together, to the street next to the market.

First, I ate a bowl of wontons alone, and walked around, but couldn't find a suitable shop.

Then I went to Yanglou Lane, which is usually very lively in the city.

When you arrive at Yanglou Lane, walk slowly from the end of the alley.

Fang Changxu happened to be in charge of this area in the yamen, and he knew a lot about these market conditions, and there were a lot of gossip.

"Hey, brother, look at this shop. It was vacated just two days ago. It can be rented or sold, and the location is good. There are quite a few people who have come to visit this shop in the past two days. They haven't talked about leaving yet. Let's take a look at this shop first. .”

Standing in front of a shop, Fang Changxu introduced to old man Xu.

This shop has only one facade, and the door is open at this time, for the convenience of those who look at the shop. There is a small corner yard behind the shop, with two small rooms, one for living and the other for kitchen.

The shop in front is not big, squeezed between two big shops, it is invisible at first glance, it is not enough to open a shop selling food, but it is more than enough to open a shop selling small things, with shelves on both sides of.

But this shop looked too crappy, old man Xu shook his head after looking around, not very satisfied.

"Then go to the next one."

"But next door to this shop is a teeth brushing shop, let's take a look first."

After walking half a street forward, we arrived at the house Fang Changxu mentioned.

There are two shops in this shop, but the front door is small, and it is similar to the one in the big restaurant.

There is a yard at the back, the yard is quite big, there are four rooms for people to live in, and there are also kitchens and huts.

Looking at it this way, it's not bad.

Seeing that old man Xu was satisfied, Fang Changxu immediately contacted the middleman in charge of the shop.

Everyone in China will say that when you come up, you will be so flattered that you will feel comfortable all over, and you will feel ashamed to open your mouth if you don't buy it later.

Old man Xu was almost dizzy by him, so he quickly stopped, "Just tell me how much the rent is?"

The middleman wanted to sell the shop, after all, he would earn more that way.

But after talking for a long time, the other party still wants to rent, so he can't turn down the deal, can he?

Immediately said: "So that the old man knows, the monthly rent of this shop is three taels. If you pay the rent for a year at a time, you can pay 35 taels."

"Three taels? There's nothing to talk about? Can't it be less?" Sun Tzu's estimated rent is almost two taels.

The middleman also wants to make this deal, and the price is also expected, but the reserve price is there, and there is not much less.

In the end, a buy-it-yourself price, two or eight dollars a month’s rent, any less is out of the question.

Old man Xu gritted his teeth and pondered for a while, and then discussed with Fang Changxu carefully.

Finally made a decision and settled here.

One is that the front of the shop has a large front door, so it is no problem to open a sanitary ware shop, and the other is that there are four houses in the backyard, and there is a well, so it is convenient for eating and lodging.

And the location is not bad.

Old man Xu was in a hurry to open the shop, and he also had a heart in his heart if he didn't sell the things made by Si Ya at home soon.

So, within a few compartments, the shop was settled.

The middleman handled things neatly, and with Fang Changxu watching, he quickly signed the lease document, stamped his fingerprints, and went to the Yamen to file for the record.

At the same time, Fang Changxu once again completed the formalities for old man Xu to open the shop, and he just waited for the decoration to be completed before opening.

He said it was decoration, but old man Xu felt that there was nothing to decorate in this shop. The front of the shop was selling groceries, and nothing had been done. The walls and everything were new, and they looked good. Once the items are put in, they can be opened immediately.

But he still has to ask his grandson's opinion on this matter, no matter how anxious he is, he won't be able to open it today, so he should not be in a hurry for a while.

After tossing and tossing for a long time, it was already past noon, and the two of them hadn't eaten lunch yet. When Xia Changxu took old man Xu back and had a drink together, old man Xu also waited for his grandson to come back from school so that he could tell him about the shop.

……

Xu Dajun's life in school today is not easy.

After the exam the day before yesterday, he knew he was done. After playing for a day, he came here today to wait for the sentencing. He was also mentally prepared to be punished.

But when the test paper was handed out, he was still dumbfounded.

Well, how should I say it?

In modern times, it would be a [-]-point test paper, and he only scored [-] points in the test.

He never thought that he could do so poorly in the exam!

In modern times, no matter how bad he was, he never passed the exam so poorly.

He didn't write the right questions at all, and at this level, if he had to take the county test for the merits of children, he would look in the mirror with a discredited face—looking at himself in the mirror.

In Mr.'s original words, there was no curse word, and there was no curse meaning, but he was so ashamed that he couldn't lift his face.

Failed my first exam at a new school, which was pretty embarrassing, to be honest.

Xu Dajun ignored Fang Zian, who was next to him biting the pen holder and gloating because he felt that he had someone to accompany him, ignored the burning sensation in his palm, and settled down to copy the book.
