Chapter 8
Then chop the lean meat into minced meat, cut the tofu into cubes, fry the minced meat in a pan to give off fragrance, put it in water and boil it, then add the cubed tofu, put some salt, then add some wild onions, cook for 1 minute bowl.The combination of green wild onions and white tofu is really beautiful, and a clear and delicious tofu soup is made.

Tong Zhuzhu wiped off the sweat from her face, looked at the delicious dishes in front of her, and showed a satisfied smile. It would be even better if there was chicken essence, but I can study it slowly in the future.

Zhou Datou outside couldn't wait a long time ago, he had smelled the fragrance a long time ago, this time he rushed in, looking at the delicate dishes in front of him, his mouth was watering visible to the naked eye.

Seeing this, Tong Zhuzhu immediately handed him the chopsticks in her hand.

Zhou Datou first picked up a chopstick and braised bracken in brown sauce. A smell of bracken permeated his taste buds, and his eyes lit up. Is this still a bitter cat's mushroom?There is no bitterness at all, and the combination of pork belly and bracken is fat but not greasy. It is simply amazing, and it is a good dish to accompany wine.

Add another egg pancake, the aroma of wild onions and eggs is irresistible. As a businessman, Zhou Datou has already predicted that this dish will definitely be loved by children and women.

After drinking a sip of the fragrant tofu soup, I just feel that life is perfect.

Tasting one mouthful after another, when he saw that the plate was empty, Zhou Datou wiped his mouth with unsatisfied desire.

Seeing that he had finished eating, Tong Zhuzhu said, "How about it, shopkeeper? Can we talk about business now?"

Zhou Datou looked at the young fat girl in front of him and said, "Of course, what's your name, please? There are so many people here, why don't we talk in another place?"
"Miangui's surname is Tong, and his name is Zhuzhu. What is the shopkeeper's name?" Tong Zhuzhu asked.

"My name is Zhou Datou, and it is good for Tong girl to call me shopkeeper Zhou."After Zhou Datou finished speaking, he took Tong Zhuzhu and the three of them to the private room on the second floor.

In the private room on the second floor, Zhou Datou asked someone to serve tea, and Tong Zhuzhu drank it without saying a word.

Zhou Datou looked at the calm little girl in front of him and cursed secretly, what a little fox, he lost the initiative when he knew who would speak, and insisted on not speaking.

He had no choice but to ask: "I don't know what kind of business Miss Tong is talking about just now, can you explain in detail."

Tong Zhuzhu saw that the initiative was in her hands, she slowly put down the teacup and replied: "I will give you the method of processing bracken and wild onions for free, and you will buy all the bracken and wild onions I brought in the future? Sample?"

Zhou Datou thought for a while and said: "Yes, but you have to promise that from today on, you can't tell others about this method of dealing with bracken and wild onions, and it can only be used in our restaurant."

"I agree. I will only cook it for my family and will not disclose it to others. So how much are you going to buy this wild vegetable per catty, the shopkeeper?"

Tong Zhuzhu asked the shopkeeper to quote herself, because she wanted to test the shopkeeper's character, after all, she had a lot of recipes in her head.

"The bracken will give you three cents, and the wild onion will give you five cents. This is definitely the price of conscience. After all, the bracken will be all over the mountains and plains in two days. You have to wash and treat the wild onion like today before bringing it back. You have to deliver the goods before noon every day, and the payment will be settled on the same day," Zhou Datou said.

Tong Zhuzhu was very happy in her heart. The price was already higher than her estimated price. She thought it would be good if the bracken could give two coins and the wild onion could give three coins.

"Okay, I agree. If there is no problem, let's sign a certificate." Tong Zhuzhu quickly agreed.

Shopkeeper Zhou finished writing the document, Tong Zhuzhu showed the document to her second brother Tong Yi, because the original could not read and could only write her own name, it was taught by her second brother, the whole family only had her second brother Tong Yi and her younger uncle I went to school, but later I didn't go to school because I was poor.

Only then did Tong Yi realize that his little sister had really sold the item, so he quickly read the contract several times to confirm that there was no problem, and made two copies, and Tong Zhuzhu signed her name and stamped her handprint.

Shopkeeper Zhou asked Xiao Er to weigh the bracken and wild onion. Ten catties of wild onion cost 150 Wen, and fifty catties of bracken cost [-] Wen. Today they sold for [-] Wen in total.

Until they left the gate of the restaurant, Tong Xin and Tong Yi were still in disbelief that those things that no one wanted on the mountain could actually sell for the two hundred coins in his arms, which is equivalent to the money his father Tong Dahai helped in the town for a month. All the workers looked at their little sister in disbelief.

Tong Zhuzhu didn't care about the eyes of her two elder brothers, she dragged them to the rice shop, and only after arriving at the rice shop did she realize why many people here ate black-faced corn rice. Thirty Wen a catty, I can't afford it with the money in my hand.

In the end, I could only buy corn, and even corn cost 75 catties. It cost [-] Wen for five catties of corn, and [-] Wen for a catty of fat meat. In fact, she wanted to buy lean meat. My brother insisted that it was not a good deal, and the fatty meat could still be boiled in oil. Thinking of the poor stock in the oil tank yesterday, he compromised, and then went to the place where the seasoning was sold to buy fifty cents of salt.

When she passed the steamed stuffed bun stall, she remembered that she and her two elder brothers drank a bowl of corn porridge early in the morning, and hadn't eaten anything all day.

It cost another six renminbi to buy three meat buns and two bunches of candied haws. The 37 renminbi was only [-] renminbi.

The second elder brother Tong Yi saw that Tong Zhuzhu bought three and seven for a long time, but seeing that all she bought was what the family needed, he held back and said nothing. Watching her buy meat buns and candy here, I thought she was I was greedy for what I ate, so I couldn't help but say:

"Tong Zhuzhu, you are about to go home, why don't you buy meat buns for two cents each, you prodigal son."

Tong Zhuzhu rolled her eyes, her second brother was really arrogant and tough, she stuffed a steamed stuffed bun into his arms, and gave Tong Xin another one, and she ate it voraciously, and told them to eat quickly.

Tong Yi looked at the meat bun in his hand and ate it without holding back. After eating, he knew that he had just misunderstood the younger sister, and he was embarrassed to talk anymore.

Tong Xin only felt that his younger sister was capable, and she could spend the money she found on her own as she wanted, so she didn't bother to ask, so she started to eat it foolishly.

The three of them rushed back to Tongjia Village non-stop. When they got home, it was dark and exhausted. When they reached their door, they saw Wang Shi and Tong Dahai standing at the door.

Tong Zhuzhu's heart was very warm, and she felt that today's hard work was worth it.

After eating dinner, she felt alive. She told everyone how much she sold today and signed the contract. She wanted to hand over the remaining 37 Wen to Wang.

Listening to her good daughter's words, Wang's face was full of smiles, and she really felt that she was not in vain. Thinking that the family will have a daily income of several hundred Wen, she said happily:
"Good girl, you keep this money yourself. You earned it yourself. Mother doesn't want it. You will keep the money you earn in the future."
