The lucky girl in the village has a good way of making money.

Chapter 55 Jiang’s murmurings

Pomegranate:.
Who said they only sell candy in Dafengji and Huangkou Town? They will go to the city tomorrow.

But she was the one who said it first. As long as the tribesmen are not afraid of losing money and don't blame them if they lose money, she will teach them how to make sweets.

What's more, it was my fourth aunt who came here. Over the years, except for the quarrels before and after the family separation, their family has always been pretty good.

And there is no reason to go back on your words. In this small situation, Pomegranate can afford to gamble.

Therefore, Pomegranate immediately said: "Fourth Aunt, I can teach you how to make sweets, but you have to make an agreement with my family first. First, I will tell you this recipe and you cannot spread it to others. Second, I will follow up on making sweets." Whether it sells easily or not, whether it makes a loss or not, or whether there is any trouble or not, it has nothing to do with my family. You can’t come to my house. I only teach you the recipe, but I am not responsible for helping you think of ways to sell it."

Without thinking, Mrs. Jiang patted her chest and promised, "Hey! Don't you know who the fourth aunt is? How can I cause trouble for you? If you don't believe it, I promise Brother Hua! I will definitely keep my word! I think about this candy myself. There is a way to sell it! There are regulations! My fourth aunt will not hide it from you. When the candy is made, I will ask your cousin, her aunt's brother, and her aunt's brother to help sell it on the streets! Just give him the hard-earned money!

I'm not stupid, how can I tell outsiders about this way of making money? At most, I just bring my parents' family together to do the work. As you know, there is no kudzu root in our village. Besides, I am also busy building a house. The stove and house in the old house are now separated. There is no other way, I can't carry this matter to my mother's family, other than this, just take it to heart! Don't let outsiders know a word! When Fourth Aunt makes money, she will buy you meat later! "

Pomegranate thought: Forget about buying meat, your family’s share of the meat from the New Year pig slaughter is still owed to our family. All you have to do is keep your quiet voice and sell the sweets you get, and I won't miss out on the share you earn anyway.

Jiang can guarantee Brother Hua, and Shiliu also believes that she is telling the truth. After all, how precious is Brother Hua to Mrs. Jiang?

Ever since, Pomegranate told Jiang the process and proportions of making sugar.

She spoke carefully, and Mr. Jiang also listened carefully and attentively. However, she never expected that Mrs. Jiang, being so big-hearted, would automatically say to the pomegranate, "Remember to grind the sugar into fine powder. Adding powdered sugar will taste better." It is more delicate so that the sugar produced will not have a grainy texture and affect the chewing texture." I ignored it.

She thought that the arrowroot powder would have to be ground finely, but sugar was just sugar, so why grind it into fine powder? What a waste of time? Just sweet enough!
As a result, the candies made by her mother-in-law looked decent and sweet enough, but they tasted not as good as the fructose sold by Pomegranate. People who are not particular about it are not particular about it, but people who are particular about it will not buy it again after eating it once. .

Business is not going well in the future, so I might as well sell them one or two cents cheaper than pomegranates.

But fortunately, I also made a fortune.

This is all something to say later. Now Jiang took down the recipe that Pomegranate told him, nodded like a pound of garlic, and praised Pomegranate a lot, not forgetting to praise Mrs. Song for her ability to raise children.

I have to say, among other things, Mrs. Jiang always said that Mrs. Wu was good at flattering people, and she herself could praise people for free with her mouth.

Jiang was very happy when he got what he wanted. Before leaving, he rolled his eyes and couldn't help but whisper to Shiliu: "Shiliu, are you curious why your eldest uncle and your third aunt didn't come? ?”

Pomegranate: Well, she’s a little curious, but she doesn’t need to ask. Fourth Aunt, aren’t you just waiting to tell me?

Sure enough, Mrs. Jiang immediately started talking, "Your third aunt also went back to her parents' house yesterday, and she was with me. I guess she also went back to her parents' house to talk about how kudzu powder can be sold for money. I'll wait for a while. My nephew came to tell me that her parents had gone up to the mountains to dig kudzu roots yesterday and today, but they were digging it home! I guess they wanted to make more kudzu powder and keep it in their hands so that they could be sold later. Where's the money!
Your third aunt is not as smart as me, but she just wants to make sweets. Her siblings are very busy, so it’s not easy for her to get involved in this matter. Furthermore, she just had a quarrel with your aunt, and she still I didn’t win the argument, so I even cried angrily when I got home! I must also be thinking about building the new house quickly and moving out early to save worry! "

When Shiliu saw her behind her back and said that she was smarter than her third aunt, she was very amused by the grudges between the two of them since they were daughters. How could this be grudges? It’s clearly a sisterhood!
She nodded, indicating that she understood. Jiang continued to speak, this time in an exaggerated tone. "You definitely wouldn't have guessed that your eldest uncle also went back to her parents' house yesterday! She was carrying a basket. Brother Hua has a good eye and saw that there seemed to be arrowroot powder in her covered basket!
Tell me, she didn't sell arrowroot powder to your family, nor did she come to you to tell you that she wanted to learn how to make sweets. Instead, she took the arrowroot powder to her parents' house. What did she want to do? Do you want to go back to your parents’ home to teach them how to make arrowroot powder? But arrowroot starch is made the same as sweet potato starch. Who doesn’t know how to make sweet potato starch? Need to be taught?
Anyway, I can’t figure it out, I think it’s quite strange. Don’t tell me, she left yesterday morning and didn’t come back until noon! You said her natal family is so close, why did she go there for so long? And the strangest thing is that this morning, she went back to her parents' house again! I just came back when I came out! It’s another day, I don’t know what to do! "

When Shiliu listened to Mrs. Jiang muttering about Mrs. Wu, her tone was completely different from that of Mrs. Huang. It was obvious that they were far away from each other, and she couldn't help but want to laugh. But did Mrs. Wu take the kudzu powder back to her parents' home yesterday? Have you returned to your parents’ home today? This is indeed quite strange.

Wu was a person she had watched for so many years. She was the kind of person who, as the old saying goes, has a sweet face but a bitter heart. A thing, in short, she is thoughtful.

I wonder what she wants to do now?

Therefore, she would rather deal with people like Jiang who can see exactly what they are talking about at a glance.

Pomegranate had some idea in her mind, but she couldn't care less about it at the moment. Tomorrow, their family would go to town to sell sugar, which would be a big deal.

After seeing off the Jiang mother and son, the family continued to race against time to make candies, and finally used up all the 150 kilograms of oranges they bought. Today, it was the dead of night again.

But Pomegranate's family didn't even bother to take a break, and continued to be busy packaging today's batch of fructose.

In three days, 150 kilograms of oranges, 24 kilograms of arrowroot powder, and eight kilograms of sugar were used to make a total of 6,000 candies.

When you go to town to sell candies, pomegranates are not just available in simple large and small packages.

She worked on the pattern, and in the past two days, she went to the ninth uncle's house in the clan to rush to work and made fifty palm-sized flower baskets specially used for packaging candies, using a hardcover route.

She also asked her father and eldest brother to do nothing for the past two days, so they were busy doing carpentry. They rushed out three wooden boxes of the same palm size. Because they were so pressed for time, the wooden boxes were divided into ten hours. In order to make it smooth and polished, I didn't bother to carve large patterns for decoration. Pomegranate suggested and simply carved a small peony flower on the surface.

As for the rest, they are simply wrapped in oil paper.

After doing all this, it was almost midnight, and the family could only lay down in their clothes and squint for two hours, and then got up.

When I brought so much candy into the city, I never thought that the pomegranates would be sold out in a day or two, so I had already planned for my family. This time when I went to the city, the sales would be about the same, and then I would go home.

Therefore, it will take at least three days. After all, it will take half a day to go to the city and sell the candy.

Therefore, the candidates to go to the city were Shiliu, Li Jihe, Li Rongzong, and Li Rongyu. The Song family's Li Xiangli and Li Rongzhang stayed at home to look after the house.

At this moment, the genius was bright, and the four people who entered the city walked out of the house in the dark with backpacks and baskets on their backs. Under the eager anticipation of the three people who looked after the house, they headed towards the entrance of the village step by step.

Enter the city!
