The weather was so hot that Bai Qing felt like he was about to faint from the heat. He wanted to lie down on the bed and pretend to be dead.

No, the bed is even more hot at this time.

The ceiling fan above the head was spinning hard, making a squeaking sound like grinding teeth from time to time. However, in the face of this scorching reality, all its efforts were destined to be nothing but struggles.

I really miss the days of air conditioning.

In this day and age, air conditioning is definitely a luxury item, and ordinary people are simply not willing to install it.

Bai Qing has been staying at home like this for four or five days.

During the past four or five days, he ate and slept like this, and slept and ate. It was like hibernation... ah no, it should be said to be aestivation.

And it was precisely because of Bai Qing's previous results that Bai Yuejin and Zhang Fang had nothing to say, so they didn't care about it anymore.

Anyway, a holiday is a time to relax.

In addition, now that Bai Qing has obviously grown up and has his own ideas, they are happy to worry less.

I stretched a lot, then walked to the kitchen, took out an ice cream from the refrigerator, turned around, put on my slippers and went back to the sofa to sit down, but my mind had already begun to think wildly.

During this time, the family business was not particularly good.

After all, schools are already on holiday. Once the so-called main force of roasted gluten consumption stops, the business volume will show a cliff-like drop.

Although adults also buy some, compared to the number of students, they are just like a drop in the ocean.

Even though the night market has now reopened, Bai Yuejin and Zhang Fang still rented a place to set up a stall selling roasted gluten at night, but their daily turnover was as pitiful as a trickle.

It is not difficult to understand, after all, adults’ understanding of commodity prices is not as simple as students’.

In this year when prices are not high, spending five yuan is enough to fry up a dish with a lot of meat and quantity at the night market, which is enough for two adult men to drink.

And if the money is converted into roasted gluten, it's only ten skewers. Five skewers per person is not enough to fill the gap between teeth.

The economy is not going well right now. I don’t know how many workers have been laid off. They don’t even have food and clothing, let alone shopping for food.

After all, it is a snack that satisfies cravings. For adults, they can always resist temptation.

But even so, unlike making huge profits at school, you can still earn one or twenty yuan a day, which is much better than sitting around at home and living in vain.

What's more, compared with wages in factories, this kind of income is not small.

Looking at the sad faces in the community, running around looking for jobs, Zhang Fang and Bai Yuejin also felt contented.

However, Bai Qing felt that it was time to develop new products.

Baked gluten and other things will usher in large-scale development when school starts again. Before the market is saturated, it should be able to bring a lot of income to their family.

But Bai Qing is not satisfied with just making roasted gluten.

When he decided to start this business, his positioning on baking gluten was very clear. This was just a way to earn his first pot of gold.

After all, there is really no technical content in roasting gluten, and gluten is not a secret that will never be spread. With the development of information and more people becoming aware of this business opportunity and entering this market, the profits of roasting gluten will gradually increase.

decline.

More importantly, making roasted gluten requires relatively high manual labor. Even after hiring people, Zhang Fang and Bai Yuejin can focus on making semi-finished products. However, with their physical strength, there is still a ceiling in terms of output.

, and the height of this ceiling determines the degree of profit this industry can ultimately bring.

A few hundred thousand a year is as high as the sky, and it is almost impossible to make any further progress.

Unless Zhang Fang and Bai Yuejin are willing to publish the production methods and then hire people to make semi-finished products, this will accelerate the end of this industry's monopoly in the Tobu market.

After all, the gluten roasting industry is still too limited.

So in this case, what should new products and industries do?

Bai Qing didn't have a clue for a while. Sometimes, there were too many ideas in his head, which made it even more difficult to make a decision.

But one thing is certain, that is, the new industry is still mainly based on the student market. In this regard, he has already tasted the benefits of the gluten baking industry.

In this era when adults are eager to break a penny into two flowers, only students can easily open the pockets of adults.

Fortunately, Bai Qing is not in a hurry about the new industry. The baked gluten market is still in a period of vigorous development, and a larger profit storm has not yet arrived. The savings at home are not enough to support his continued efforts, so he also

It's just a habit to prepare for a rainy day.

Since I can't think of it, I'll think about it slowly.

After throwing the ice cream stick that had been chewed into pieces into the trash can, Bai Qing decided to go out for a walk. It was a holiday and it was not good to stay at home all day long.

But not long after he went out, Bai Qing couldn't help but regret it, because the sun outside really taught him how to behave.

He quickly ran to a supermarket and felt the coolness brought by the air conditioner. He wanted to stick out his tongue to dissipate the heat.

In 1998, supermarkets were still a new thing in Tobu. In addition, this was one of the places that was willing to turn on the air conditioning, so at this time, the supermarket was already crowded.

At this moment, a flash of lightning seemed to flash through Bai Qing's mind.

His mind moved subconsciously, but when he grabbed it again, he found that he couldn't find the flash of inspiration just now.

This made Bai Qingju extremely frustrated.

There was nothing to do anyway, so I just wandered around inside to see if I could find any discoveries that would help me regain my inspiration.

I have to say, looking at the prices above, Bai Qing was filled with emotion. Prices twenty years ago were really cheap. Of course, some rare things were really expensive, like some of the things he had become accustomed to in his previous life.

The fruits, at this time, were solemnly visited in a conspicuous place like tributes, and the prices marked on them were also astonishing.

But when he strolled to the snack area and looked at the simple packaging that was not dazzling at all, the spark of inspiration that had just passed suddenly burst out again, and this time, Bai Qing did not let it escape.

He finally thought of what he was going to do next. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but laugh at the surprised eyes around him...
