chapter 50

Hou Yongqing went up the mountain alone to pick wild vegetables, any edible mushrooms, fungus, jelly grass, wild peppers, garlic sprouts, as long as she picked them that were useful to her.

After picking up several large frames, she directly took someone else's ox cart to Shuiyunjian.

Bai Liyan had asked someone to buy the food back and put it in the backyard. Watching Hou Yongqing pick the vegetables back, he went out to help carry the vegetables back.

It was an elderly man who sent her back by car, and Bai Liyan grabbed some copper coins and handed them to him.

The old man thanked him gladly and drove the car away.

Before finishing the dishes, Hou Yongqing grabbed him and asked, "How do you count the wheat and rice?"

Bailiyan knew that she would ask, so he just replied, "Chen wheat costs five cents a catty, a total of three thousand catties, and rice costs four cents a catty, which is also three thousand catties."

In fact, he had already paid for the food, so in order not to make her suspicious, he lied that it was on credit.

Hearing Chen Mai's five cents a catty, Hou Yongqing immediately vomited blood angrily.

"The wheat we bought at home was only two pennies before, why is it five pennies now? And it's still old wheat? Didn't you say that you would buy the cheapest one compared with several others? Don't you think you bought the most expensive one?
Wheat is so expensive, wouldn't it be a disadvantage for me to sell it for such a small amount? "

Bailiyan knew that she would have such a big reaction, so he quickly comforted her and sat down, "I did shop around and picked the cheapest and good quality wheat to buy.

Wheat was indeed cheap before, but since you told others that the pasta you made was wheat flour, the price of wheat has risen, and the price of fine wheat flour has even reached six yuan, seven yuan a catty! "

Hou Yongqing stared at him blankly, "Is the culprit still me?"

"That's not true, the market, you are considerate!"

"I can't understand it, it hurts so much, I will raise the price to fight against them tomorrow!" Hou Yongqing roared directly.

Bailiyan frowned immediately when he heard this, "This is not good, and according to the price you set today, you can still make money. If you want to fight against those merchants, it will only be the common people who will suffer!"

"The common people do my shit, I'm not the emperor, I care about their life and death, I just want to make money!"

Hearing her words, Bailiyan stood up suddenly, and said angrily, "You are so worldly, cold-hearted, and selfish?"

He originally thought that she was just a little bit of a money fan, but in the face of righteousness, she still insisted on a little bit of conscience.

Unexpectedly, she was completely worldly!

"Hey! You only see through me now! I'm sorry to disappoint you!"

Hou Yongqing snorted softly and turned around directly.

Bailiyan squeezed the restless brows, and tried to calm himself down. After being with her these days, he could find that she was only very persistent in money. In fact, he could feel that her heart was not bad.

She's just... just because her mother's affairs are too sad, and she cares too much, yes, it must be like this!

Seeing her busy washing vegetables, Bailiyan walked over and couldn't help but said to her, "I have learned some medical skills before, and I can handle some rare and complicated diseases. Didn't you say that your mother is seriously ill? If it is possible, You can take me to see your mother, maybe I can cure your mother's illness..."

Hou Yongqing ignored him and continued to wash vegetables.

"Don't be so pessimistic. As long as your mother is alive, there will always be a way to treat her. Believe me, okay..."

Hou Yongqing didn't even lift his eyelids, and continued with the work in hand.

At this moment, Bailiyan looked at her unruffled eyes, a little unsure whether the fact that her mother was seriously ill was true or not...

Their family didn't seem to come from the capital city, and it was heard that her mother hadn't been with her since she was a child. How did she know that her mother was in the capital city, and also knew that her mother was seriously ill?

You know, he never told her family about these things at all.

Furthermore, if there is an urgent matter, foreigners can also go to the capital to stay for a period of time to visit relatives, there is no need to stay at the border for two years.

But no one in their family was in a hurry except this girl, which made him curious, what was this girl working so hard to earn money for?
He stepped forward and took the initiative to take over the work in Hou Yongqing's hands, helped her wash the vegetables, and looked at her with affection in his eyes.

Hou Yongqing lowered his head and didn't see his expression. He just shook his hands that were soaked in water, rubbed vigorously on his clothes, and then stepped forward to pick up a bag of wheat and took out a rolling pin to grind the powder.

In just a few days, people here have already made stone mills, and some people even use this kind of stone mills to help people grind wheat flour to make money.

Hou Yongqing doesn't need it, she can get finer wheat flour by grinding it casually.

After Bailiyan finished washing the dishes, he leaned over to help her make the dough, and in short, tried his best to show her presence in front of her.

However, Hou Yongqing didn't even look at him at all, instead he was thinking about his own affairs seriously.

Bailiyan felt a little frustrated, why didn't she look at him, hugging his thigh was much easier than earning money by herself.

Not being a demon anymore, Bailiyan helped Hou Yongqing with the preparations for tomorrow.

The noodles have to be woken up in advance, the vegetables have to be washed, and then wait until tomorrow to chop stuffing, stuffed buns, dumplings, and wontons.

Shuiyunjian has only been open for half a day, and the popularity of the business has already made many businessmen jealous. Seeing them busy inside, many people sneaked in to take a peek.

Bailiyan had a keen ear, and walked out when he heard someone coming.

These people were embarrassed to say that they wanted to steal the teacher, so they came over one by one and said they wanted to buy small materials.

I spent money and took small materials, but I didn't look at anything useful.

How are buns and steamed buns made?Why can't they try these two things at home?

And that jelly, why is it green?What kind of grass was used?Do you want to put something else in the grass?
Dumplings and wontons can be made, but the taste is almost the same as theirs, and I don't know what ingredients are put in their stuffing.

Could it be the little material in your hand?
But how is this little stuff made?

Open it up and see, chili, fish, and what is it, it looks like meat but not like meat, it smells weird, it looks like it's made of wheat, but how can it be drawn?
It tastes good though.

He tried putting some of this in dumpling stuffing.

the next day.

Hou Yongqing and Bai Liyan came to the shop early and were about to start work, but he didn't expect that the red silk was also hung up on the opposite side to open the restaurant.

It not only sells noodles, but also buys dumplings and wontons.

"Everyone come in and take a look. A bowl of my noodles is [-] cents, a bowl of dumplings is [-] cents, and a bowl of wontons is [-] cents. There are not many, first come, first served! Delicious!"

Early in the morning, the shopkeeper yelled at the door.

Hou Yongqing, who hadn't opened the door yet, was so angry that he almost strangled someone when he saw this scene.

Is it so cumbersome to open a restaurant in this dynasty?As soon as she made delicious food on the front foot, she was imitated by others, and it was a few pennies cheaper than her. Although there are not many people in the market, almost everyone rushed to his restaurant.

Seeing Hou Yongqing's furious hair stand on end, Bailiyan hurriedly pulled her back, "Don't worry about getting angry, they have limited knowledge, you still have a lot of advantages, come in and help, and try to grab the traffic!"
