Chapter 184: Chapter 184 Helping Uncle’s Family 2_1 Chapter 184: Chapter 184 Helping Uncle’s Family 2_1 Seeing his decisive intention to start a business, Xia Ningxing truly thought he was a smart man, so she got straight to the point, “Uncle, you can start a business with fruit herbal liquor.”
“Ah? Fruit herbal liquor?” Upon hearing this, Uncle and the others present were all at a loss.
Of course, except for Lu Tingli.
“Bao’er, what is fruit herbal liquor?” Uncle Lin asked, full of curiosity.
He was not unfamiliar with liquor, but how to make fruit herbal liquor?
It was sothing he had never heard of before.
The others felt the sa.
Xia Ningxing explained, “Fruit herbal liquor, as the na suggests, is made by fernting fruits and dicinal herbs with alcohol, and it’s suitable for all ages to drink.”
“Most importantly, because of the dicinal ingredients, each type of liquor has different effects, like so can treat rheumatism, so can remove cold from the body, and others can beautify and nurture the complexion…”
Xia Ningxing talked on and on about many things.
Because she knew a lot of herbs, fruit herbal liquor was sothing she could easily make.
And she could also ensure others wouldn’t learn how to do it.
The Lu family had excused themselves before Xia Ningxing started speaking about this, after all, these were business secrets.
Although Xia Ningxing wouldn’t have minded them listening, they insisted on leaving, and since she couldn’t very well stop them, she couldn’t help but admire the Lu family’s integrity.
If it was anyone else, they might be all ears and ready to jot down notes, after all, who wouldn’t want to take on a money-making venture!
After listening to Xia Ningxing’s enthusiastic talk, Uncle Lin was so excited he could already imagine how wonderful this health-improving dicinal liquor would be!
He suddenly slapped his thigh and said, excited with spit flying, “I think it’s a go! Bao’er! Let’s do this! I see this is definitely going to make money!”
“Then, Uncle, I’ll write down the recipe for you,” Xia Ningxing nodded.
Next, Xia Ningxing wrote down the thod for making fruit herbal liquor, as well as everything needed, and handed the list to him clearly on a piece of paper.
This was simple; as long as he followed the recipe, he couldn’t go wrong.
“Uncle, here you go.”
Xia Ningxing wrote out ten different fruit herbal liquor recipes in one breath.
Uncle Lin hurriedly took them like treasures, carefully cradling the recipes in the palm of his hand, but when he looked over the materials and items needed, his face involuntarily changed.
Xia Ningxing caught his reaction, “What’s wrong, Uncle?”
“Bao’er, I, maybe we should forget about it…” His face instantly fell, and he chuckled bitterly, as if he was about to return the list.
“What exactly is it, Uncle?” Xia Ningxing couldn’t help but squint slightly, not understanding why he had changed his mind so quickly.
Uncle Lin’s face showed a hint of embarrassnt as he rubbed his fingers, awkwardly admitting, “I… I don’t have any money…”
He originally thought that starting a fruit herbal liquor business would at most cost a couple of thousand yuan, but to his surprise, the list indicated that costly dicinal herbs like ginseng and deer antler were needed, plus jars for the liquor. After estimating, he realized that to start this business, he would need at least thirty thousand yuan.
But his family didn’t have that kind of money; they couldn’t even co up with thirty yuan, let alone thirty thousand.
He had thought that if it were just a couple of thousand, they could scrape it together by selling whatever they had, but now, even selling the old house wouldn’t be enough to amass thirty thousand yuan.
“There’s nothing to worry about!” Before Xia Ningxing could say anything, Mrs. Xia imdiately said upon hearing this, patting her chest and generously offering, “Brother, if you really want to do it, I will give you the money!”
Thirty thousand yuan was but a drop in the bucket for their family.
She had initially wanted to have her brother help out in her place, but now she hoped more that he could start his own business.
Just as Bao’er said, what’s the use of working for soone else?
Besides, when her perfu workshop moved to Capital City, if he followed, he would inevitably have to leave his wife and children and their elderly mother behind, which wasn’t necessarily a good thing.
