Lin Fang's eyes immediately lit up: "Brother, can we... Can eat mooncakes this year?" In previous Mid-Autumn Festivals, it was good to have enough food at home, and mooncakes were a luxury.
Lin Ye looked at his sister's longing eyes and his father's sad face, and the long-gestating plan in his heart finally took shape. He put down his chopsticks and said in a calm voice but with unquestionable power: "Dad, Xiaofang, this Mid-Autumn Festival, our family will not only eat moon cakes ourselves, but also rely on moon cakes so that our family can eat white flour steamed buns every day in the future!"
Lin Dashan and Lin Fang were both stunned and looked at him in disbelief.
Lin Ye's plan was even more shocking: "I plan to make mooncakes myself and sell them."
"Make it yourself?" Lin Dashan lost his voice, "How much flour, sugar, and oil will it take? And, can we make that thing?"
"I'll figure out the raw materials." Lin Ye was confident, "I have access to sugar, flour, and oil in the county to get some. We have peanuts, sesame seeds, and red beans in the mountains, and we can let Tiezhu and the others collect them. As for how to do it..." He picked up the mooncake mold he bought today and said, "We can try it. Even if we can't make it like the supply and marketing cooperative, as long as we put in enough ingredients and the taste is real, someone will definitely buy it. The key is that mooncakes are difficult to buy on the market now, they require tickets, and they are limited." He paused, looked at his father and sister, his eyes burning: "This is our best opportunity. I will invest all the money I saved before! Give it a try!"
