I am Fugui

Chapter 21
It was already October, and a cold wave came from the north. Not only did it rain heavily, but the temperature dropped significantly.

It seems that there is no autumn in Yunxi County. As soon as summer disappears, you can smell the breath of winter.

Xu Fugui came out from Chen's house, wearing Chen Liping's thin clothes, and when the cold wind blew, he had goose bumps all over his body.

However, he was in a good mood, as if he had regained his lost strength, and recalled every detail of the meeting just now in his heart.

The roast duck in his hand was already cold, he came to a hidden alley, put the roast duck into the space, and urinated in the alley by the way.

"Hey, what are you doing! Who is this? Is this a place to pee? Where is anyone peeing outside someone's house? What's your name?"

A woman with a big arm and a round waist just came home with a vegetable basket. When she saw someone urinating outside her courtyard wall, she immediately put her hips on her hips and scolded her.

Xu Fugui put on his trouser belt shamelessly, laughed a few times, turned and walked out of the alley.

The woman had nothing to do with him, so she spat at his back, cursed a few words, and let it go.

Xu Fugui also wanted to find a toilet to urinate, but at this time in Yunxi County, there were no public toilets at all, and he had to find a hidden place to solve his urgency.

Humming a ditty and walking on the Qingshiban street, the rain had stopped at some point, but the white mist became thicker and shrouded Yunxi County tightly.

Xu Fugui tightened his clothes, and suddenly realized that he hadn't bought salt yet, so he went to the grocery store and bought two catties of snowflake salt.

After buying, he still had a lot of money left in his hand. It happened that there was a pork stall next to him. He rolled his eyes and walked over.

"How do you sell pork?"

When the butcher saw that there was a business coming, he got up quickly and said with a smile on his face, "It's all freshly slaughtered pork. The fat meat is [-] copper coins a catty, and the lean meat is [-] copper coins a catty. How much do you think?"

Xu Fugui clicked his tongue and waved his hands, "Forget it, it's too expensive, I might as well eat mutton."

Here, there are many more people raising sheep than pigs, so mutton is much cheaper than pork. "

Seeing that he was about to leave, the butcher quickly said, "How about 75 copper coins a catty for fat meat and 55 copper coins for lean meat? It really can't be less."

Xu Fugui was very entangled in his heart, he kept scanning the pork stall, and suddenly saw the pig's large intestine and pig's kidney, and couldn't help but think of the lo-mei he had eaten in his previous life.

After more than 60 years, Xujia Village has also developed. Although it is a village, it can be regarded as a small town.

A family started a lo mei business and sold it in the village with a small cart. At that time, Xu Fugui was full and the whole family was not hungry, so they went to try something new.

Unexpectedly, I became obsessed with lo-mei since then, and bought and eaten it every now and then. After getting acquainted with the boss of lo-mei, I gradually knew how to make lo-mei.

Yup!

Xu Fugui clapped his hands vigorously and almost jumped up excitedly.

He can make lo mei!

In the previous life, that family's lo-mei business could do so well, so there's no reason why he couldn't.

The main reason is that in his impression, no one in Yunxi County seems to be engaged in this stuff yet.

He seems to have found a way to make a fortune!

"Are you going to buy it or not?" the butcher looked at him and said impatiently. He was startled by clapping his hands suddenly just now.

"I won't buy it."

Xu Fugui grinned and left in a hurry. He wanted to see if there was anyone in the county who was making lo-mei. If not, he must seize this opportunity.

Lo-mei has actually existed in ancient times. After continuous development, it has become quite mature now, among which Sichuan stew is the most popular.

Of course, due to the condiments, the taste of this era may be different from that of the 21st century, but it doesn't hurt.

It took a lot of effort to go around the entire county, exhausted and out of breath, but very energetic.

No one really does lo mei!
He returned to the pork stall, pointed at the pig intestines and asked, "How much?"

The butcher looked at him strangely, "You say this is a big pig farm? You don't want to eat it yourself?"

Xu Fugui pursed his lips speechlessly, "Just tell me how much you want, and if it's cheap, I'll buy it for you."

The butcher rolled his eyes and folded his hands on his chest, "Well, if you buy me five catties, no, six catties of fat meat, I will give you this pig intestine for free."

Xu Fugui squinted his eyes, moved his finger to point at the pig kidney, "I'll give this stuff too."

The butcher shook his head, "That won't work, many people like to eat this stuff, and usually sell it for a silver horn, but I can give you the heart and lungs."

Xu Fugui thought for a while, then nodded in agreement.

Immediately, the butcher happily picked up the knife and cut a piece of fat and thin pork, which weighed six catties and seven taels.

"look?"

Seeing the butcher's smiling eyes, Xu Fugui rolled his eyes, "That's six catties and seven taels."

"Okay, six catties and seven taels, let me do the math, before eighty copper coins, six or eight forty-eight."

Xu Fugui interrupted him, "Isn't it 75 copper coins a catty?"

The butcher coughed dryly, "Hehe, yes, 75 copper coins a catty, I almost forgot."

"75 copper coins a catty, let me do the math."

The butcher first calculated half the salary by mouth, and then began to wring his fingers. After several times of calculation, he finally figured it out.

Xu Fugui gave him silver dollars, and after he got back the copper coins, he carried the pork and pig intestines and walked happily towards the rice.

The rice shop not only sells rice, but also sells various condiments. He is going to go back and try it out to see if the marinade tastes good.

Of course, rice line alone is definitely not enough to buy, and there are still a lot of condiments to be bought at the pharmacy.

In fact, the marinade is very simple, you can prepare the marinade at home, pepper, licorice, cumin, onion, pepper, ginger, soy sauce, star anise and so on.

And the marinade can be reused, the longer the marinade, the better the taste, but it is necessary to add some seasonings to maintain the taste of the marinade.

Xu Fugui bought a lot of condiments and prepared to prepare more marinade for the stall.

The cost of selling lo-mei is also low, no shops are needed, and the investment is good, so Xu Fugui did not ask Wang Wenchang for help.

Fortunately, today's roast duck didn't cost money, and the shopkeeper of Wang's restaurant gave him half a silver dollar more, otherwise it would not be enough to buy these things.

Once again, I spent a lot of money on my body, but my heart was full of passion, and I wanted to go home and try it immediately.

After making money, he must eat meat every day!

I looked up at the sky, it was covered with clouds and mist, it was already very late, and it was probably dark by the time I got home.

Not daring to delay any longer, he walked out of the county with his big and small bags, went to a place where no one was there, and put everything in the space.

Then he took off his cloth shoes, quickened his pace, whistled and sang messy tunes, and walked barefoot on the muddy road
