Chapter 98

"Aunt Li, in fact, Mengyao is asking for something this time. If you insist on not accepting it, Mengyao really can't bother uncle and auntie for help. Besides, you have helped so much a few days ago, so I will accept the money." , and there are still many places that need my aunt's help in the future. When those flowers and trees grow up, it is inevitable to ask my aunt to take care of them. If my aunt refuses like this, Mengyao really doesn't know who to ask for help in the future."

Unable to withstand Qin Mengyao's repeated pleas, Aunt Li reluctantly took the silver in her hand.

"When I went out to dig shepherd's purse that time, I saw many rhododendron and peach trees in the field, which must be in full bloom now, so I wanted to ask my aunt to help me pick some, so I could try to make some essential oils. A few days ago Thanks to the locust tree in the yard, I managed to extract some essential oils, but I didn’t expect to sell them in the city today, so I wonder if I can pick some other flowers to extract some essential oils, so that I can subsidize the family.” Qin Mengyao described the idea in his mind in detail, and watched Aunt Li's reaction quietly from the side.

"There are indeed a lot of flowering trees in our village, so it's not a problem to pick some flowers back, but..." Aunt Li paused, glanced at Qin Mengyao, and hesitated in her heart.

"However, even if you really extract the essential oil, what if no one buys it in the future? Today's essential oil can be sold smoothly because you are lucky to meet a noble person, but there is no guarantee that you will meet such a buyer every time." Aunt Li said worriedly, and this is not what Qin Mengyao was worried about.

Extracting essential oils from flowers was originally Qin Mengyao's idea to make a living. After all, it would take at least a year and a half to wait for the potted plants to grow into shape, and there was no guarantee that the seedlings would grow into shape smoothly during the period.

Starting from nothing, the most fearful thing is to spend all your energy and get nothing in the end.And the possible risks are what Qin Mengyao is most afraid of. She only knew a little about the way of doing business under the influence of her parents before, but when she really took action, she realized that there were many difficulties.

And it is inseparable from money to support a family, eat, drink, and do everything. For Qin Mengyao, who has never lived in poverty, it is undoubtedly a huge challenge. Although the market here may not be very big, even if it is only sold a little bit, it can at least improve the current life.

The silver taels earned by Sophora japonica essential oil undoubtedly gave Qin Mengyao great confidence, so she came up with the idea of ​​making other flower essential oils.

But Aunt Li's words were like enlightenment, which awakened her brain, which had been burning like never before.In the environment of the ivory tower before, she only came into contact with professors and classmates, and had not really set foot in the society, so her thinking was unavoidably simple, and she couldn't help but get excited whenever she had an idea. However, Aunt Li graduated from a social university. In the mountain village, I have seen many people of all kinds, so I naturally know the hardships of life.

Seeing Qin Mengyao's silence for a long time, Aunt Li said again, "Mengyao, it's not that Aunt Li wants to hit you, but that business shouldn't be something we women do. Zhong'er's father often goes to the city to sell some mountain beetles. He must know more about business than this woman. Every time he comes home from the city, he always likes to tell some stories about the city, but every time he mentions women's business, he also likes to talk about it. Inevitably shaking his head."

Regarding these, Qin Mengyao heard Aunt Li mention them for the first time, so he listened attentively.

"To tell you the truth, two years ago, there was a strange woman in Pulan City who specialized in selling strange things. There were many colorful headdresses in the shop, and some cute little dolls hung on the wall. Even the shape of the earrings is weird. At the beginning, many women thought it was strange, so they went into the shop to look at it, but when they came out, their faces were painted like a vixen. I heard that the eyes would be surprisingly big, and the eyelashes would grow a lot... ..."

Isn't this something sold in modern boutiques? The more Qin Mengyao listened, the more curious he became. Thinking that this woman might have traveled through the same time as himself, he felt inexplicably excited and asked, "Then where is she now?" ?”

"Just one month after the woman opened the shop, a half-immortal came from the city and said that the woman was a witch," Aunt Li sighed. , without exception, became vicious, so after a few days, they were framed on the execution ground and burned to death. The shop she opened was also burned to the ground. Anyone who visited her The woman in the store came back to life after being performed ritual rituals."
