Reborn Farmhouse: Planting Fields, Flirting with People

Chapter 174 Sweet Potato Vermicelli (3)

Out of a deep-rooted knowledge of sweet potatoes, and fearing that shopkeeper Chen, a big man, would not understand these ways of eating, Mrs. Chen spoke disdainfully, and hurriedly said: "Even so, how delicious are sweet potatoes..."

It was reasonable for them to react like this. After all, the farmers in Lijia Village didn't bother to eat sweet potatoes, let alone the people in the city.

Li Mingyue explained with a smile: "I don't care whether the sweet potatoes are delicious or not. The sweet potato vermicelli tastes pretty good. If Shopkeeper Chen doesn't mind, can you borrow the kitchen and I'll make some dishes for you to try."

Shopkeeper Chen naturally didn't mind. After all, there were sausages and fried pork skins there, and the taste of the sweet potato vermicelli would not be that bad, so he was still a little bit looking forward to it.

Mrs. Chen was also very curious, and led Li Mingyue to the kitchen herself.

Li Mingyue soaked the dried vermicelli in warm water first, and then began to process the pork she brought over. She planned to make stewed pork vermicelli, and then make hot and sour vermicelli and cold salad vermicelli.

Li Mingyue moved swiftly, and within an hour, a table of delicious vermicelli feast appeared in front of shopkeeper Chen and Mrs. Chen.

Just smelling the fragrance caused people to move their index fingers, but the two of them were not polite, they took the chopsticks and started to taste the dishes.

Mrs. Chen is a person who loves spicy food, and the gluttons in her stomach have long been attracted by the hot and sour aroma of hot and sour noodles. Holding a small bowl of hot and sour noodles, she couldn't stop eating.Shopkeeper Chen is more fond of stewed pork vermicelli. The vermicelli is full of meaty aroma, delicious taste, smooth and chewy.

Seeing their eating like this, Li Mingyue knew that her business was done again.

In the end, shopkeeper Chen ordered two hundred catties of sweet potato vermicelli from Li Mingyue at a price of [-] Wen per catty.After all, the common people's idea of ​​cheap sweet potatoes is deeply rooted, and shopkeeper Chen dare not take the risk of ordering too many goods.

After agreeing on the date of delivery, Li Mingyue wrote the recipes of the few dishes she just made to shopkeeper Chen.Because of the hot and sour noodles, Mrs. Chen's impression of Li Mingyue changed a lot, she pulled her to talk for a while, and praised her for her good cooking skills.

After leaving the Chen family, it was getting late, the brother and sister didn't stay any longer, and hurried home on horseback.

On this trip, I ordered two hundred catties of sweet potato vermicelli and earned four taels of silver, but the harvest did not meet Li Mingyue's expectations.According to the previous ratio, one hundred catties of sweet potatoes can make about twenty catties of vermicelli.At least [-] catties of vermicelli can be made out of nearly [-] catties of sweet potatoes at home. Today, the mouth is worn out, and only one-tenth of them are sold.

Li Shou and Liu Shi were overjoyed, they didn't expect that these worthless sweet potatoes could be sold for a lot of money after such a mess.

You know, even if the five mu of land is used for growing grain, it can be sold for two taels of silver... Now that you grow sweet potatoes, your income has almost doubled by dozens of times.

With the order of two hundred catties, the Li family members were very motivated, and they worked even harder to make sweet potato vermicelli. The second batch of sweet potato vermicelli made a full four hundred catties.

For the convenience of delivering goods to the family in the future, Li Mingyue bought a second-hand carriage for five taels of silver and came back. Li Shou repainted it and it looked like a new one.

A strong bay red horse was galloping along the road with a cart of vermicelli. Li Mingyue leaned on the carriage and sighed to Li Mingzhi: "Oh, our family also has a car and a house."

"?" Li Mingzhi didn't understand what this meant, and was confused.
