Gourmet pastoral: the clever mother raises the cute baby

Chapter 42
"That can't be done. This fish can be sold for half a month at most. There are more and more jealous people in the village. In a few days, you can go to the village head's house and talk to see if there is anyone who wants to learn from the basket fish. You can come then Let's study at home, and each person brings fifty Wen, which can be exchanged for grain." Hearing what Gu Yunqing said, Tian Xiaoyu hurriedly persuaded, "It will take a few days for them to learn, and when they learn it, they will go to basket fish, fish If we can’t sell them at a higher price, our family’s fish selling business should stop.”

Gu Yunqing was still a little puzzled after hearing the first half of the sentence, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, he nodded in agreement, "Daughter-in-law, what you said is right, I listen to you, by the way, today's fish is fat Very soon, we sold more than 1000 Wen for all the money, and sold more than 200 Wen for the pine branches and cypresses just selling fish baskets."

But when I thought about it, if my business stopped, wouldn't that mean I would lose my livelihood?
"Daughter-in-law, if we don't sell fish, won't there be no work for money?" Gu Yunqing said.

Tian Xiaoyu frowned. In fact, it wasn't that she hadn't thought about this issue. After talking about it once before, she found out that when Gu Yunqing married his wife, he sold all the three acres of Susukida in the family. Selling, it's really worrying for a while.

Yuan Bao burped after eating the watermelon, and said to Tian Xiaoyu contentedly, "Mom, can you make me fried skewers tomorrow?"

The fried meat skewers are made by Tian Xiaoyu imitating the method of toothpick meat. Because there is no toothpick, the part that wears the meat is omitted. It is marinated directly, fried with meat, and then mixed with cumin powder. Seasoning such as pepper powder.

Tian Xiaoyu nodded in response, suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, thinking of a person, Spice?Thank you!

It has been less than half a month since I saw him selling fish last time, and the spice business should have had some effect, Tian Xiaoyu said confidently to Gu Yunqing, "Sir, do you still remember the shopkeeper Xie? Let's go to the grocery store tomorrow, and this new business will come naturally."

Although Gu Yunqing was confused, he still nodded in response.

In the end, the couple put together the family money and counted it again. The three big silver ingots earlier had been exchanged for broken silver. In the past half a month, they had earned more than ten taels from selling fish. Lin Lin finally counted and already had 40 taels of silver.

Although this money is not enough to build a house, it can take several years to eat, drink and spend carefully. After thinking about it, Tian Xiaoyu waved his hand and asked Gu Yunqing to buy a few acres of fertile land, and he would do it himself. use.

After waking up the next day, Tian Xiaoyu asked Gu Yunqing to send the Yuanbao to Aunt Ye's house. One was because of the bumpy ox cart, and the other was because of the hot weather. The Yuanbao was too small to withstand such hardship.

The two arrived at Qinghe Town and went straight to Sifang Store.

In the weather of June, the sun is getting hotter and hotter. Although it is early to go out, the sun is scorching hot now, making Tian Xiaoyu's forehead sweat profusely. Bamboo curtains to block the heat.

When Tian Xiaoyu and Gu Yunqing entered the grocery store, they found that Xie Shi was not there, so they had to ask the waiter in the store, only to find out that he had gone to the Zuixianlou in the town. A frowning woman walked out from behind the curtain door, and said with a sweet smile, "Who am I? It turns out that they are the couple from the Gu family. Our young master has been out for a while. If you two don't mind, follow me to the backyard and wait for a while."

Tian Xiaoyu looked up at the person who came, and it turned out to be the girl in blue. She looked at herself with a smile, but it always made Tian Xiaoyu feel awkward. If we're not here, then we'll come back another day." After speaking, he was about to pull Gu Yunqing away.

As soon as the two turned around, Xie Shi opened the bamboo curtain and came in. Seeing Tian Xiaoyu and the others, the joy in his eyes was ready to come out, and he hurriedly said, "Brothers from the Gu family and Mrs. Gu, are you here for the spices?"

"My husband has often come to town these past half a month, so I will come with him today. By the way, I would like to ask shopkeeper Xie, is the spice recipe okay?" Tian Xiaoyu didn't say that he came here for the recipe, otherwise This in itself reduces some of the priorities for business negotiations.

When Xie Shi heard it, he didn't know what she meant, so he quickly invited the two to the main hall in the backyard to discuss, this spice recipe is a fortune.

Xie Shi held the Guanyin tea, sipped it carefully, and said triumphantly, "Brother Gu, Miss Gu, I sold your spice recipe to Zuixianlou. Guess how many taels it sold?"

Seeing Xie Shi's appearance, Tian Xiaoyu had confidence in his heart. It seemed that this prescription must have sold for a good price, otherwise he wouldn't be so overjoyed, but he still smiled patiently and said, "Little lady can't guess." If you don’t want to thank the shopkeeper, just tell me.”

Xie Shi stretched out five fingers, gestured and said, "50 taels, this is just Fangzi's money. In the future, they will get all the spice supplies for Zuixianlou from my Sifang shop."

This time, Tian Xiaoyu couldn't stay calm anymore.A recipe recipe, bought for 47 taels of silver, resold it for a total profit of [-] taels!More than all of my savings!
Without waiting for Tian Xiaoyu to open his mouth, Xie Shi immediately said, "Since I have made money, I can't let you suffer. I will give you another seven taels of silver, okay?"

When Gu Yunqing heard this sentence again, he still looked at Tian Xiaoyu with a smile and indifferently, as if he was completely dependent on his wife, Tian Xiaoyu pretended to evade, "I'm afraid it's not good, it's a good deal. How can the water that has been spilled be changed?" In fact, I really wish that Xie Shi would give him the money quickly, so that he can buy candy for Yuanbao.

"You still accept it, the seven taels of silver is Xie's sincerity." Xie Shi asked Lan Yi to take out the seven taels of silver from the inner room and put it in the hands of Tian Xiaoyu and his wife.

Tian Xiaoyu didn't take it, but said, "Master Xie, do you want to do a long-term business with the little girl?"

"That's natural." Xie Shi replied hastily.

"Thank you shopkeeper, you don't have more than ten kinds of spices. When I sell out those prescriptions, how can we cooperate for a long time?" Tian Xiaoyu not only wants ten taels of silver, but also 100 taels of silver, but the salesman of Sifang Shop. channel.

People here don't know how to cook dried vegetables, and have never seen bamboo shoots before. Tian Xiaoyu believes that only she studies food carefully, and she will definitely make many different delicacies, and this place will become a channel for food to flow out.

The ancient grocery store was really miscellaneous, selling everything, including food and everything.

After hearing Tian Xiaoyu's words, Xie Shi couldn't figure out what she was thinking, "Then what does Miss Gu want to do?"

"If Shopkeeper Xie believes in my ability, then we can make a contract. I will ship the goods and you will be responsible for the sales. We will pay three to seven, and you three to seven." Tian Xiaoyu's words can be described as bold, but she has this confidence , Xie Shi will definitely agree.
