Nongmen ruffian concubine: ploughing the fields, planting buns

Chapter 113 Small profits but quick turnover
"Okay, two pennies for a small bundle. After all, this is more expensive than shepherd's purse. For the same small bundle, Artemisia stalks can be fried with meat, and Artemisia leaves can be used to make glutinous rice cakes. It's not as strong as mugwort leaves."

Therefore, this counts as two dishes, and it is cost-effective to use one dish for two purposes.

"Okay." Manager Zhou readily agreed, which made Ding Shitou stunned for a moment. She was going to say a few more words, and this is the deal?
What she didn't know was that Qinfeng Restaurant's specialty was ancient style, and the wild food had a better market than other restaurants, and many rich people came here just because of its reputation. It is indeed easier to sell such dishes in Qinfeng than other restaurants.

And Ai Ye Baba is a seasonal snack that is about to be launched recently, and it will be a hot seller at this time of year.

The Ai Ye Baba in the restaurant is naturally not an ordinary farm craft, and there are many varieties, so the taste is naturally not so heavy.

If Artemisia chrysanthemum leaves can be substituted for Artemisia chrysanthemum leaves, wouldn’t that save trouble?

Fifty small bundles of a basket, earn a lot of money in a blink of an eye.

"Then let's go back and continue picking chrysanthemums. Uncle, let the kitchen try them first. I will try to sell these two dishes today. If I think it works, I can go to my house to receive the goods in the afternoon."

Ding Shitou collected the money and gave some instructions, and Manager Zhou agreed.Ding Shitou asked about dried fungus again, and learned that half-dried fungus is worth two renminbi, and according to the degree of dryness, it can be sold for four renminbi at most.

Of course, it is made of fresh fungus, not old fungus, that is to say, it should not be stored at home for more than half a year.

"Uncle, don't all the markets sell Wuwen?" Ding Shitou was surprised, because what Li Wen said was that it was easy to sell Wuwen.

"Five coins can be sold, but we are a restaurant, and the quantity of goods is not one catty, two catties, two hundred catties can be collected, but there is loss in storage."

"Uncle, all the fungus in my family are washed and then dried. They are very clean and their shape is well preserved. They can be sold in Liuwen."

"Purchasing along the street is a bit more expensive, but it's also hard work. If the price is right, I'm willing to send it all to Uncle."

Ding Shitou changed his mind and began to bargain.

"Siwen, I can still send a guy to pick up the goods. I'll order two hundred catties first, which is enough for you to dry for a month." Manager Zhou was unmoved, and instead analyzed the interests of both parties.

Although the price is not high, it saves the hard work and labor loss of going to the city, and it requires more goods, which is better than retail sales in the market. Ding Shitou naturally understands the principle of small profits but quick turnover.

"That's fine. I'll dry two hundred catties before the rain. I'll wait for my uncle to send a man to bring the baskets. A basket will cost eight cents." Ding Shitou didn't bother, and immediately agreed.

Knowing that bamboo shoots will not be harvested in the near future, Ding Shitou said his goodbyes and left.

"Boss, why did you agree to Siwen? I'm not afraid that Wuwen will not be sold on the street." Ding Dian asked a little puzzled.

"First, I don't know how the market is every year, but our village is rushing to pick fungus. Even if we can sell five cents or more, it will definitely take a lot of time."

"Second, when we have time to sell along the street for a day, we can pick a lot of fungus when we go up the mountain and go home. We can't compare with the villagers in terms of manpower. Now there are guys who come to collect the goods, saving us labor."

"Third, the price of Liuwen sells for [-] catties a day, and the price of Siwen sells for [-] catties a day. Which do you think is more profitable?" Ding Shitou patiently analyzed the pros and cons of the two, and he is also a disciple.

Ding Dian calculated with the formula, and his eyes lit up immediately.

"Use the time saved to go to the city to dry more fungus, and earn more."

The price of Liuwen is not cheap, and the transaction volume must be greatly reduced. Although Siwen is cheap, but the transaction volume is high, and the profit is actually more.

Ding Shitou smiled and nodded, and walked to the side door of the Zhao residence without knowing it.
