"What? It sold out after just a while?" The boy was a little unhappy.

"Master, I'm so sorry, it's the first time we've made this fried chicken, and we don't know if you like it, so we didn't dare to make more. If you like it, I'll leave two yuan for you tomorrow. See if it's okay." ?” Ke Shuisheng asked in a good voice.

Seeing that Ke Shuisheng had reached this point, the young man had no choice but to say, "Okay, then bring me two more skewers of croquettes, and I'll take them home for my wife to taste. Boss, you must give them to me tomorrow." I keep two pieces of fried chicken!"

"sure!"

Several vendors at the stall near Ke Shuisheng saw that their business was so good, some were envious and others were jealous, and they were hesitating whether they should also try selling croquettes?

When it was lunch time at noon, the number of people on the street gradually decreased. Ke Shuisheng looked at the sky and said to Ke Xisheng and the others: "It's lunch time, let's close the stall and go home."

"Uncle Shuisheng, isn't there still a dozen bunches of meatballs that haven't been sold yet?" Tongsuo asked.

"There are a lot of meatballs brought today, and there are fried chicken and potato chips. It's normal that these meatballs can't be sold out. It's the same for the remaining ones in the afternoon."

"OK then."

As soon as Ke Shuisheng and the others got home, Ke Hanxue opened the basket and saw that there were only some croquettes left in the basket, and asked happily, "Dad, are the fried chicken and potato chips sold out?"

"Yes, today's business is better than yesterday." Ke Shuisheng said happily.

"I knew I would sell a few more chickens, but I didn't sell any fried chicken this afternoon." Ke Hanxue said regretfully. Fried chicken is no better than croquettes and potato chips. It must be marinated one night in advance to taste.

"The same goes for selling croquettes and potato chips without fried chicken," Ke Shuisheng said.

"Father, this fried chicken is more profitable than meatballs and potato chips. I'll buy a few more chickens and marinate them in the afternoon."

Ke Hanxue divides a chicken into eight or nine small pieces, and when frying, coat it with more flour, and it looks like a big piece, so no customer thinks it is expensive.

Ke Hanxue thinks that if the fried chicken business is good, he can marinate the leftover chicken necks and feet, and sell them, so that he can earn more.

"Xue'er, the business of our stall is so good, I'm thinking about setting up another stall, anyway, we have enough manpower, so we can earn more if we can."

"Father, I heard Mr. Ge said that it might snow some days. I think it's better to forget about setting up a stall. When it snows, how many people will come out to go shopping? Now if you have something to make, make it first. Think of other ways when it snows."

"It will snow here?!" Everyone was shocked.

"If it snows, won't you be unable to go out?" Ke Shuisheng and Ke Xi have never really seen snow in most of their lives. They only know that it will be very cold when it snows.

"Yeah, Dad, we won't be able to support the stall at that time." Ke Hanxue said again.

"Then what should we do?" Ke Shuisheng looked serious.

Hearing that it will snow here, the members of the Ke Meng family also became worried. They didn't bring much clothes. If it snowed, the family would need a lot of money just to buy clothes. No, I still don't know where to squeeze out the money?

"Father, don't worry, I will find a way. If there is no other way, let's borrow some silver taels from Mr. Ge, and pay him back when we return to Shuihe Village." Ke Hanxue made the worst plan.

"Xue'er, you have to remember that we can't borrow money from Mr. Ge unless it is absolutely necessary, you know?" Ke Shuisheng said seriously.

"Father, I understand."

Hearing that it would snow, everyone felt uneasy.

At first, they just thought that the temperature here was dropping very fast. They had just arrived in Qingzhou City for a few days, and they had already changed from wearing two coats to having to add an extra coat. Only now did they know that it was going to snow soon.

Ke Hanxue knew that she didn't have much time to think of a way, and after her father and the others left the stall, she went to the street alone.

It is said that there are business opportunities everywhere, but Ke Hanxue searched the entire Qingzhou City and found no business opportunities. She looked up and saw that she was standing at the door of a tailor shop, and walked in after thinking about it.

As soon as Ke Hanxue entered this tailor shop, he saw two masters meticulously measuring the size of the guests with a tape measure.

When a waiter saw a customer coming to the door, he smiled and greeted him: "Girl, do you want to make clothes?"

"Let me take a look first." Ke Hanxue smiled lightly.

"Girl, the weather is getting colder and colder now. We have a new batch of wool fabrics in our store, which are just right for making jackets. Miss, do you want to consider making two jackets?" The little girl introduced enthusiastically.

"Brother, what woolen material, can you let me have a look?" Ke Hanxue became interested.

"Of course, girl, please." Seeing that Ke Hanxue was interested, Xiao Er hurriedly led her to a counter, and took out a few pieces of wool from the counter.

Seeing those fabrics, Ke Hanxue's eyes lit up. Isn't this just modern fur?And there are so many colors, it's just that the craftsmanship of this dynasty is underdeveloped, and the fur is not handled very well.

But even so, these furs are already very rare for the people here.

"Brother, how much does it cost you to make a woolen jacket here?" Ke Hanxue asked calmly, an idea was formed in his mind, but he didn't know if it would work?
"Girl, if you make such a jacket, it will cost about 80 taels of silver." These days, many girls have come to make this kind of jacket, and Xiaoer still knows the approximate price.

80 taels? !

Ke Hanxue's eyebrows twitched, 70 taels of silver in Shuihe Village was enough for their family's expenses for several years.

"Second brother, do you sell woolen bills here?" Ke Hanxue asked with a smile again.

"Sell it. This woolen material is sold for 65 taels of silver per horse. If you take it back and make it yourself, you can at least make two sets of jackets." Xiaoer replied.

"Second brother, I like this material very much, but I didn't bring so much money here today, I will buy this wool material tomorrow, okay?" Ke Hanxue asked with a smile, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw a pile of wool under the tailor's table. He then asked Xiao Er, "Brother, this wool is so valuable, what do you do with the leftovers from making jackets?"

Xiao Er followed Ke Hanxue's line of sight and said with a smile: "The girl is talking about those leftover materials. Those leftover materials are not enough to make a child's jacket. Who would want them? They will be taken away at that time. thrown away."

"Can't it be used to mend old jackets?" Ke Hanxue asked again, which is too wasteful.

Hearing this, the little girl re-examined Ke Hanxue from head to toe, and asked, "Girl, go to the street and see, is there anyone still wearing patched clothes?"
