Chapter 6 Wild Vegetables for Sale

Chapter 6 Wild Vegetables for Sale
Brothers and sisters-in-law are all good at farm work.

After lunch, a group of people dug up [-] to [-] catties of wild vegetables in just over an hour.

Among them, shepherd's purse and gray vegetable are the majority. In fact, the most common vegetable on the mountain is bitter vegetable, but the taste of bitter vegetable is special, so the consumption is relatively small.

The whole afternoon, Zhao Wenmu and Zhao Jing stayed in the yard cleaning wild vegetables, and Zhao Wenmu also learned how to take care of the little girl at the same time.

For example, at this moment, the little girl suddenly started crying.

The young couple hurriedly stepped forward to check, and it turned out that it was pulled.

Zhao Jing took a piece of clean diaper, picked up the little girl and prepared to change it for her, but Zhao Wenmu opened his hands:

"Sister, let me come."

Although he is not very proficient, he took off the diaper for the little girl smoothly.

However, looking at his daughter's pink and tender butt, he found it difficult.

how to wipe?What to use?

Zhao Jing reached out and handed over a piece of warm and soft towel.

"Dip some hot water with a towel and wipe gently. The water temperature should not be too hot, as it will burn the baby."

"The towel should go from front to back like this, and these places should be wiped twice."

"After wiping once, wash it first, and don't wipe it repeatedly."

"Don't rub back and forth, it will hurt the baby."

"Don't push the baby's butt up too high, she will be uncomfortable..."

Zhao Jing speaks softly and delicately, it turns out there is so much attention to wiping the baby's butt.

With the movements of Zhao Wenmu's hands, the little guy seemed to feel comfortable, and his crying gradually became quieter.

Then there was a small "poof", and a small lump of golden poop landed on Zhao Wenmu's hand.

The little guy also giggled, completely unaware that he had done something bad.

Zhao Jing's expression changed all of a sudden.

She was afraid that Zhao Wenmu would get angry and lose his temper again.

Zhao Wenmu was also stunned.

After being stunned for a while, he suddenly burst out laughing:

"Girl, are you thanking Dad for giving Dad so many golden beans!"

He is really happy to live a new life. Right now, in his heart, his precious daughter smells good all over, even her papa.

Every scene of taking care of the baby will be the best memory in the future.

In the future, I can use this matter to tease my daughter, just think about it and be happy!
Zhao Jing looked at Zhao Wenmu in surprise, the young and handsome face was filled with the most sincere joy, is this really the little brother who doesn't touch the spring water with five fingers?
"I forgot to tell you. When the baby pulls, it usually pulls two or three times intermittently. It's all my fault."

She stretched out her arms to hug the little girl, and signaled Zhao Wenmu to wash her hands.

The little guy was still giggling in his mother's arms.

After laughing, he put his hand in his mouth and sucked vigorously.

The younger brother is not only not angry, but also knows how to joke around to adjust the atmosphere. I really hope that the younger brother can be like this in the future!Zhao Jing thought silently in her heart.

Zhao Wenmu came back after washing his hands, smiled and tapped Zhao Jing's forehead lightly.

"This is your punishment for not being good at teaching."

At night, Zhao Wenmu took over the task of taking care of the little guy as a matter of course, although Zhao Jing was still a little worried, whenever Zhao Wenmu got up to feed and change the diaper of the little girl, she would watch nervously from the sidelines.

Zhao Wenmu is not reluctant, he believes that in a few days, Zhao Jing will trust him even more.

After all, it was only the second night, and he was indeed not very proficient.

Early the next morning, Zhao Wenmu and his second brother Zhao Wenguang drove an ox cart into the city.

The bullock cart was slightly faster than Zhao Wenmu carrying the big back basket, and the two of them arrived at the area of ​​the sugar factory in about an hour.

The big yellow ox pulls [-] to [-] catties of wild vegetables, and there are two men, which is not difficult at all.

Even so, the two of them were walking along the way. The big yellow ox had a great effect on plowing the land and pulling grain, and the rural people cherished it very much.

Zhao Wenguang took out a cloth bag containing flour and spread it on the ground, and piled wild vegetables on it.

Green and tender wild vegetables, clean, without any impurities.

I arrived a little earlier today, and there were not many people on the street.

After a few minutes, the number of people gradually increased, and people gathered around one after another.

"Young man, I made the sauce according to the method you said, and the cold shepherd's purse is so delicious!"

"Yes, yes, I made steamed stuffed buns with shepherd's purse yesterday, and my father-in-law boasted that he hadn't eaten such delicious steamed stuffed buns with shepherd's purse in years!"

It turned out that it was the two elder sisters who brought me the first order yesterday. They thought it was delicious and came here to buy it early in the morning.

Zhao Wenmu had expected that wild vegetables are delicious and inexpensive, and have various effects, so it's no wonder there aren't many repeat customers.

This time, the two older sisters each ordered two catties of wild vegetables, and Zhao Wenmu greeted them with a smile and accepted the money.

Others also bought it one after another. Most of the family members of the employees are familiar with each other. The wild vegetables are delicious and good for health. It has already spread here yesterday.

Some rumors are even gossip, such as "Old Li said that after eating bitter vegetables and dipping them in sauce, he felt that his high blood pressure had indeed dropped", "Sister Liu's son grew a lot taller after eating gray vegetables", "Xiao Zhang My face looks better after eating gray vegetables"...

Once some words are passed on to ten or ten to a hundred, they gradually become more and more exaggerated.

The spiritual entertainment of the people in this era is still poor, otherwise, it wouldn't be so hot to talk about eating wild vegetables.

But this is a great thing for Zhao Wenmu!
He originally thought that it would take some time for the wild vegetable business to grow. As more and more people bought it, his reputation gradually improved, and the daily sales volume would also increase.

But I didn't expect that debut would be the pinnacle.

Zhao Wenguang was stunned!

He has always been amiable and eloquent. He has never seen so many people rushing to buy, and he can't speak anymore, just keep weighing dishes and collecting money.

He still can't believe that wild vegetables are so popular.

Although the whole family no longer doubted that shepherd's purse could be sold after eating the shepherd's purse feast yesterday, they never expected that the sales would be so hot!
In less than half an hour, the wild vegetables on the bullock cart were snapped up, leaving only two specially reserved baskets.

It was to be delivered to the state-run hotel.

As a result, more people did not buy today than yesterday!

"Young man, don't you still have two baskets in the car? Why don't you sell them!"

"Yes, yes!"

Some people have not bought it for two consecutive days, and they are already a little unhappy.

"Sister, those are reserved for the state-run hotel. They have prepaid yesterday, and I will deliver them to someone later!"

Zhao Wenmu hurriedly explained loudly.

You must explain the matter clearly, otherwise it will make a few customers angry and refuse to buy. It will be a minor matter, but it will be a major problem for them to report to the factory or the police and stop selling vegetables here!
"I'll come back at five o'clock tonight, and you can come back then!"

"Then can I pay you first, and you can keep it for me when the time comes, but don't have any more!"

Hearing that Zhao Wenmu said that he would come to sell wild vegetables at night, the elder sisters hurried to pay for the vegetables in advance, after all, the elderly and children at home were waiting to eat.

Zhao Wenmu didn't refuse either. He collected the money, borrowed a pen and paper, and wrote down all the vegetables and catties that so-and-so wanted.

Everyone was satisfied with this, and the brothers also breathed a sigh of relief.

Coming out of the area where the sugar factory belongs, Zhao Wenguang was still dazed:

"Little brother, all the wild vegetables are really sold out!"

Zhao Wenmu smiled, patted the bulging little cloth bag in his arms, and said in a low voice:

"Second Brother, do you believe me now? Do you want to do it with my younger brother!"

"I believe it! I believe it! Go home and dig wild vegetables!"

The two brothers did not go directly to the state-run restaurant, but went to the supply and marketing cooperative first.

Zhao Wenmu bought a pack of Big Chicken brand cigarettes produced by the state-run Quancheng Cigarette Factory, soft packs, one pack of eight.

Zhao Wenguang was very distressed when he saw it, and he scolded him for not knowing how to save money. How could such expensive cigarettes be afforded by peasants like them!
"Second brother, these cigarettes are for building relationships."

Zhao Wenmu explained with a smile.

Zhao Wenguang is not stupid, it can be said that he is very good at interpersonal relationships, and he understood after thinking about it.

The state-run hotel is on Guangyang Street not far from the county government, which is also the most prosperous place in Pingyang County.

At this time around 08:30, there were not many people in the restaurant.

In Zhao Wenmu's eyes, the state-run hotel was low and rustic, but in Zhao Wenguang's eyes, it was magnificent and magnificent.

He parked the ox cart not far from the entrance of the restaurant, timidly daring not to go to the restaurant.

Zhao Wenmu didn't make things difficult for his second brother, he asked Zhao Wenguang to wait for a while, and then walked into the restaurant.

"Comrade, do you want to eat?"

A little girl with braids came up to meet her, she seemed to be the waiter here.

"Comrade, hello! I made an appointment with Deputy Director Li Guofu to come over to deliver wild vegetables today, can you call him for me?"

When the girl heard Li Guofu's name, she nodded immediately, told him to wait here, and poured him a cup of hot water.

Then he walked quickly into the back kitchen.

After a while, she led a young man in a chef's uniform out.

Another acquaintance, Li Guofu's young apprentice Wang Youming.

In the previous life, the two were good friends who had gone through the same window together.

"You are Brother Zhao, right? My master went to the city for a meeting today, and he told me about the wild vegetables."

Wang Youming took Zhao Wenmu and his brother to the back door of the hotel, where they weighed the wild vegetables and unloaded them into the kitchen.

The total weight was more than 52 catties. Zhao Wenmu deliberately put on a little more, but did not charge extra money.

Then he took out two more cigarettes and handed them to Wang Youming.

This kid, like his master, likes to smoke.

Wang Youming thanked him and carefully put away the cigarettes, and he had to go into the kitchen later, so he couldn't smoke.

Big chicken brand cigarettes, usually I can't bear to smoke such good cigarettes, one can almost catch up with a catty of white flour.

"Brother Zhao, your wild vegetables look really juicy, without any weeds or mud!"

As an apprentice chef, he is really happy to see such wild vegetables.

After all, washing and picking vegetables is his job!

"Brother Zhao, Master said that we still need 50 catties of wild vegetables tomorrow."

After the transaction was completed, Zhao Wenmu was in a good mood. He believed that the amount of wild vegetables purchased by the state-run restaurant would definitely increase!
More small money is beckoning to yourself.

The two brothers did not go home directly, but first drove the ox cart around the city. Zhao Wenmu wanted to see if there were other places suitable for selling wild vegetables besides the sugar factory area.

After a lap, I have a rough idea.

After buying some eggs, cotton cloth, and candy at the supply and marketing agency, the two hurried home.

 (⊙o⊙) Wow, so many monthly ticket recommendations and comments!
