Chapter 37 You Are Not as Good as Me (Additional Update, Please Give Me Some Monthly Tickets)

For the next hour, the crowd was even larger than before.

Perhaps it was because around 11 o'clock was the peak time for people to go to the market nearby, and Yu Qiutang's worries were completely unnecessary. Not only was there only a few pieces of the magic tofu left, but even the yellow rats had already been caught.

One person took three at once and said he liked to eat them steamed the best.

When Yu Qiutang came, I finally felt relieved.

All things are difficult at the beginning, but with this good start, I believe there will be better prospects in the future.

If he could make the Shenxian Tofu into a "brand" and people would get used to it and would come to eat it every time they went to market, then he could find ways to expand the scale and accumulate tofu wood leaves.

The leaves begin to sprout in March each year and last until September, when they fall.

You can’t eat it in winter.

If the sales are good, you can pick all the leaves in autumn, dry them and store them, and then use them slowly in winter.

There is no difference between dry leaves and freshly picked leaves. The only difference is the water content, not the useful substances such as glue and starch contained in the leaves.

Of course, selling at the bazaar is only the first step.

In the future, his goal is to deliver this thing to restaurants and eateries, forming an industrial chain supply so that more people can eat it.

He only needs to supply the goods, so he no longer has to spend time on such things, and can let his third sister and two children do it as a regular delivery.

If he continued to set up a stall on the street, he could make some money. After all, he was a reborn person and could not waste all his time on this process.

If you want to do something small, you have to consider whether you should do it.

Just as I was thinking about it, I saw a familiar neighbor in the village stopped in front of the stall and said that he wanted me to keep a portion, but he thought it was inconvenient to take it, so he decided to come over and get it after buying other things.

And give the money first.

Yu Qiutang was polite and chatted with him while wrapping tofu.

At a corner not far from the street, Chen Meidi and Wang Chunhua were standing in the shade to cool off when they saw Yu Qiushi jogging back with a candied haws in his hand.

"What are they selling over there? Why are there so many people there?"

Chen Meidi asked casually.

There were a lot of things to do at home today, so Wang Chunhua went out a little late. She walked slowly along the way. When the sun was high in the street and people's faces were hot, she still forgot to wear a hat.

While taking a break, Yu Qiushi said he wanted to go in and eat some candied haws, so I gave him ten cents to buy some.

"It's my brother, selling the green jelly." Yu Qiushi stuffed the last candied haws into his mouth and said vaguely, "There are so many people buying it. I looked through the crowd and saw that there were still a few pieces in the basin. My brother made a lot of money."

"You said Yu Qiutang was selling that," Wang Chunhua stuck out her tongue and fanned herself with her hands, half-believing and half-doubting, "Are you sure?"

"I'm not stupid, how could I not recognize my brother?" Yu Qiushi rolled his eyes at his sister in annoyance. "If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself. But hurry up, or he'll be gone soon after he sells out."

"I'm not going. It's none of my business whether he sells it or not!" Wang Chunhua also rolled her eyes. Her movements were almost exactly the same as Yu Qiushi's. She learned this from their mother. Chen Meidi liked to roll her eyes when she was unhappy.

"That thing sells so well." Chen Meidi was also surprised.

"Who knows? It tastes really good, refreshing and cool, and it's the most comfortable in the summer. Now that I think about it, I want to eat it again. I ate a little yesterday, but it didn't satisfy my craving at all." Yu Qiushi licked his lips, and the corners of his mouth were all hot and sticky from the candied haws, like a lazy cat stealing food. "You want to eat shit? That's what people give to your father to show their filial piety. It's great to give you a few bites. You haven't eaten enough. If you want to eat, ask him. You are his brother, maybe you can get together?"

Wang Chunhua laughed at Yu Qiushi, which made Yu Qiushi very angry.

"Go if you want to. Do you think I don't dare? I will ask my third sister for it when I get home. She will definitely not stop me. Haha~" When Yu Qiushi said this, he suddenly felt that he had found a good idea and immediately smiled.

"Look at your character, can you be more promising?" Chen Meidi knocked on her son's head. "Now that we have separated, don't go to other people's houses for no reason. It's embarrassing to make people think that I asked you to go. "

"I don't feel ashamed. I'm not an outsider. Besides, I don't want to split up the family. It's you adults who forced me to do it," Yu Qiushi didn't understand what his mother meant and still insisted.

"I don't know why you guys want to force my brother to share the profits. If he were at home, wouldn't we have a share of the money from the sales? And we could all eat all the jelly we want."

"It's worthless!"

Chen Meidi took a look over there, walked out of the shade, and started walking forward. As she walked, she wondered what that thing was. It should be green, so it must have been added with some kind of grass juice. What exactly was it?

That light green and astringent taste seems like something I have never tasted before.

Also, why does it taste so tender and smooth? It feels like some kind of powder, but not quite.

I'll have to think about it carefully when I get back. I don't believe that if Yu Qiutang, who doesn't really cook, can figure it out, why can't I be able to do it?

snort!
When I make it, I'll sell it. It looks like the business is pretty good.

"Mom, I want to eat marshmallows!"

Yu Qiushi behind him had no idea that his mother was planning on the magical tofu. When he saw the cotton candy on the roadside, he pulled Chen Meidi to get some.

"Eat shit!"

Chen Meidi pushed her son away and said, "Just go away honestly. Take whatever you see. Did my money fall from the sky?"

"I want to eat."

"If you keep yelling, I won't bring you here next time and won't buy you anything," Chen Meidi looked at her son's chubby face and thought of Yu Xiaowei's frail appearance. She suddenly felt annoyed. "Why don't you look at Xiaowei and Yunyun, who are all helping to make money? You only know how to follow me around and ask for food. Aren't you ashamed?"

"Pfft~"

Wang Chunhua laughed when she heard this from the back.

My brother was humiliated, but for some reason Wang Chunhua seemed to be gloating over it. She said, "You kid, you've been arguing with me all day, so you got scolded."

"What are you laughing at? Look at what you look like. You are such a grown-up, but you still stay at your mother's house and eat and drink for free. You dare not tell anyone when you go out. How dare you talk about your brother? You are the same person, how can you be any better?"

"Haha~"

This time it was Yu Qiushi's turn to laugh.

"Still laughing at me, keep laughing, you are worse than me!"

After hearing this, Chen Meidi felt even more depressed. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Why did all the promising children come from other families? She had worked so hard, but these two unlucky children didn't make any progress at all.

No, she must find a way to get that method, so that she can have another way to make money. Thinking of this, she rolled her eyes, pulled her son over and said with a smile: "You want to eat cotton candy, mom will buy it for you, but you have to..."
