Portable Space: Small Peasant Girls Farm to Get Rich

Chapter 8 Shitianxia and Huibailou

Good night's sleep!
Liu Qingcao's biological clock woke her up early.

"hiss……"

sore……

Liu Qingcao was prepared, but the sudden discomfort also made her groan.

Gently raised her arms, moved slowly, enduring the pain, Liu Qingcao persevered, and slowly, the discomfort eased a lot.

Putting on his shoes, seeing that Liu Jiangbei was still sleeping soundly, Liu Qingcao quietly went to the kitchen to make breakfast.

For convenience, Liu Qingcao was left yesterday.

Liu Qingcao opened the pot, took out the roasted potatoes, and put them in the charcoal ashes. Soon, as the water in the clay pot boiled, the potatoes in the stove hole were also hot.

Liu Qingcao ate two, left two for Liu Jiangbei, and there are two more, Liu Qingcao is going to take them on the road to eat when she is hungry, and put a few potatoes in the firepit later, if she comes back late, Liu Jiangbei will also Not hungry.

Time was tight, Liu Qingcao quickly fired the pottery kiln, and when it was done, it was already daylight.

After Liu Qingcao woke up Liu Jiangbei to wash up, she gave him potatoes and told him to look at the house and pottery kiln, while she set off with two roasted potatoes, a bamboo tube of water, and a bag of potatoes.

Liu Jiangbei was more sensible than Liu Qingcao imagined, knowing that it was inconvenient for his sister to take him, so he didn't cry and waved her to come back earlier.

In my memory, the road to the town is very vague. Fortunately, there is only one road out of the village, and the village rarely goes out. Except for the old cow in the village who drives the cows to pull people out every day, they basically barter in the village. Yes, at most, let him help carry some things.

Along the way, Liu Qingcao didn't dare to stop, she was afraid that if she rushed to the town, the town would be scattered.

She didn't stop, and her eyes were looking around. Along the way, Liu Qingcao found a lot.

The villages in the direction of the town are richer, the land that can be planted is fatter and wider, the people are stronger, and the chatter and laughter are louder. Although the crops in the field are barely strong and the yield per mu is very low, but fortunately there is more land , can also be added.

Anyway, along the way, she has never seen a village that is poorer than theirs.

Liu Qingcao shook her head, sighed and continued walking, always thinking that there are troublemakers in the poor mountains and rivers, and she was a little worried about being robbed, but along the way, there are groups of people, in twos and threes, there are many people on the road, men, women and children are different , but they are all dressed in commoner clothes, each carrying or carrying or carrying, talking and laughing with each other.

Such a comparison made Liu Qingcao even more puzzled by the ethos of her village...

From the village to the town, it was a long distance of fifteen miles, and she would have to walk for an hour to get there.

Originally, two pennies could make a bullock cart, so it would be easier, but it is not easy to earn a penny in this place, most people are willing to walk, and she, let alone Liu Qingcao, now she has nothing. For a penny, it is impossible to ride a bullock cart...

If there are not many things, she is willing to walk back, unless she has a few dozen taels of silver with her, she can also consider going back by car.

At the entrance of the town, Liu Qingcao took a rough look. This town is a meeting place for many villages. The road surface is made of stone. After a long time, the road surface is also full of potholes. There are shops on both sides, some of which are made of blue bricks. , some use slate, some use wood.

The pavement is low and narrow, but most of them have a backyard. The yards are big and small. If you look closely, you will find that the yards at the two ends are small, the shop and yard in the middle are large, and there are tall buildings with wooden structures at the intersection of several streets.

Liu Qingcao, who has seen the bustling modern city, is not surprised, but if compared with the village, it is a sky and a ground.

Liu Qingcao walked around with the things in her hand, remembering the layout of the town in her heart.

There are small business activity areas in this town, including restaurants, noodle shops, grocery stores, grain stores, bookstores, clothing stores, yamen, academies, pawnshops, jewelry stores, restaurants, inns, etc.

Small but complete!

In the messy vegetable market, Liu Qingcao took a look around, and did not see any vegetable farmers selling potatoes, so she was even more sure that she was the only one.

"Go to the restaurant first to try your luck." Liu Qingcao quickly disappeared in the vegetable market and went straight to the restaurant. There are only two restaurants in the town, Shitianxia and Huibailou.

Both businesses are doing well. From Liu Qingcao's point of view, the two can stand side by side, mostly because of their different consumers.

Judging from the two names, Shitian mainly serves the rich, while Huibailou serves ordinary people.

To put it bluntly, it is a high-end and a low-end!
In order to get more money, Liu Qingcao took the lead in choosing Shitianxia, ​​a high-end game, that is, she wants to be the only one, and eat rare food, so that she can get more money!

If it doesn't work, going to Huibailou is also possible, but if that's the case, Liu Qingcao might break the balance between them in a short time...

There is a waiter waiting at the gate of Shitianxia, ​​Liu Qingcao thought for a while, and is still going to try his luck, if he doesn't look down on others, then she will be half successful, if she is blocked, she will turn around and leave , so as not to go to Huibailou, a conflict between the two families will affect her at that time.

Liu Qingcao stepped forward gracefully, sure enough, before she got close, the Xiao Er immediately glared at her viciously, and before Xiao Er opened her mouth to reprimand, Liu Qingcao turned and left.

Liu Qingcao: It really is not a good thing!

Liu Qingcao went far away, saw Xiaoer welcoming customers into the building, Liu Qingcao walked quickly to Huibailou, Huibailou did not welcome Xiaoer, there were many tables in the shop, and some of them were empty in twos and threes.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Liu Qingcao went straight to the cashier.

Sitting in front of the counter was an elderly man with gray hair and a beard, who looked gentle and easy to talk to.

"Uncle, I want to recommend a special dish to you, is it convenient for you?" Liu Qingcao stood on tiptoe, trying to expose her entire body.

When I went out this morning, I even tidied it up on purpose, but the clothes were too worn out, and she really couldn't change this, but fortunately, it looked a lot cleaner and tidier.

Ge Hongshan raised his eyes, saw a little girl, and asked with a smile: "Little girl, you are so young, what good food do you have?"

Liu Qingcao's eyes lit up, there's nothing wrong with this!

"Uncle, if you want to make this dish, you have to taste it before agreeing, but I can guarantee that this dish must be the only one here!"

When Ge Hongshan heard that he was interested, it had been three years since the last one came to buy the recipe, and it was because of this dish that the restaurant was brought back to life.

That is, this girl is only so big, can she do it! ?

But it doesn't matter if you try it, it's just a waste of some oil and salt.

"Little girl, how do you prove that your dish will satisfy me?" Ge Hongshan walked out of the counter, bent slightly, looked at the girl who only reached his chest, and opened his mouth.

Liu Qingcao grinned and raised her head to look at Ge Hongshan.

"Uncle, I don't have the recipe, but I can make it. I just need to borrow the kitchen. Is it convenient?"

Ge Hongshan was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, it seemed that he underestimated this girl, for being so polite at such a young age.

"There is a small kitchen in the store that specializes in ancestral recipes, complete with seasonings, and I will take you there."

After Ge Hongshan explained to his servants, he took Liu Qingcao to the small kitchen behind the restaurant.

The kitchen is not big, and all the items used are complete, Liu Qingcao silently gave Hui Bailou a good review in her heart.

"Little girl, I'll just wait here. Everything here can be used, but you must watch the fire." Ge Hongshan looked at the sworn Liu Qingcao, explained some things, and left the small kitchen, sitting next door Drinking tea in the room, waiting quietly.
