Chapter 1 The Little Girl Selling Ice Bowls

Chapter 1 The Little Girl Selling Ice Bowls

Deling County, Yujiang Mansion, Xijiang Province.

The last rays of the setting sun gradually sank into the clear water of the Fanjiang River that traverses Deling County.As night falls, there are waves of sounds that are more noisy and lively than during the day.

Tonight is the Girl's Day of Qixi Festival, and the night market opened early.

The Great Xiao and Jianguo have lived for several generations, from the time when they were starved everywhere to the present bustling and bustling, a hundred years of vicissitudes have passed unknowingly.

Washe Goulan, colorful sheds and shops began to sell like songs.Pedestrians walking through the gradually brightening river of lights.

There are many painted boats on the surface of Fanjiang River, and the lights are colorful, as bright as day.The streets and alleys not far from the river are full of tourists.

"Ice bowl, cool and refreshing ice bowl!"

Amidst the rough cries of street vendors, there are tender, sweet and crisp female voices like clear spring water, which is refreshing.

"Little girl, what are you selling?"

Some people were attracted by the word "ice". On a hot day, who wouldn't want to eat something cold?
"Hey! I have all kinds of ice bowls!"

The little girl who was yelling at the booth was about ten years old, with a small round pink face, and a small dimple on each lip when she smiled, she was very cute.

"Do you want sweet-scented osmanthus sour plum soup, honey sand red bean ice, or mint mung bean water? I suggest you ask for a big ice bowl. I will pour a lot of lotus seeds, lotus root, mung bean and red bean, and sweet-scented osmanthus marinade, enough for your family." The child ate it!"

"If you're in a hurry, I have mung bean sorbet and red bean sorbet here. You can take them and eat them while shopping! Would you like two?"

The little girl looks sweet, has a sweet voice, and speaks sweetly. The white snow sorbet poured with sweet-scented osmanthus marinade in her hand is even more sweet and tangy, which makes people's index fingers twitch.

"how much?"

The person who asked the question was already hungry, but seeing such a big bowl of smoothie, he quickly calculated the approximate price in his mind.Certainly not cheap!
You know, in the past, apart from the royal family and the government, only a few rich families had ice cellars to store ice.Over the years, the life of the inland people has become richer. In summer, hawkers buy ice from government ice cellars to make cold drinks, but most of them are expensive.

Unexpectedly, the little girl smiled and said: "It's not expensive, the big ice bowl is fifteen yuan, the small ice bowl is ten yuan, and the ice cream is five yuan each!"

so cheap?

It seems that the ice bowls on the long street cost thirty cents for a small bowl!

So what are you waiting for, buy it!The whole family bought it, and even bought two ice creams before leaving.This kind of square ice cream, it seems that you haven't eaten it yet?
The darker the night, the better the business of the little girl's stall, the steady flow of customers, and the three sets of tables and chairs on the stall were never empty.

Of course, it is impossible for her to come out to do business alone, and there are two older boys who are helping to greet the guests, but the ability to attract business is far worse than hers.

"Tada, Tiantian!"

Gan Qiu wiped off his sweat, leaned into his sister's ear and said, "The box of ice cream has bottomed out, it's sold out!"

"Really?"

Gan Tiantian laughed in surprise, his eyes sparkled, and he quickly calculated what he had gained tonight.

150 pieces of sorbet, each can earn more than [-] Wen, and tonight just selling sorbet made half a tael!

And the big money maker tonight is still on the ice bowl side. Roughly, there are 2000 ice bowls sold, big and small.I can make a net profit of more than [-] Wen in one night. If there is a night market every day, the debts of the family can be paid off in a few days!

Thinking of this, Gan Tiantian couldn't help feeling a little proud.

In her previous life, she was a strong woman in the company. She was appreciated by the chairman of the company. She was about to get promoted and raise her salary. For some reason, he changed his body, and also changed his time and space.

When she became "Gan Tiantian" more than a month ago, she received all the memories of the original owner by the way.This little girl who has just turned ten years old is an orphan whose parents died—fortunately, she has two older brothers.

The Gan family used to be a well-to-do family in Deling County.Although there is no real estate store, his father Gan Wenfu has been working as a small official in the county government.Although he is not a serious official in the establishment and his social status is not high, his income is not too bad, and it is more than enough to maintain a family of several.

But after Gan's father contracted a serious illness last year, the family's expenses increased sharply, but their income was completely cut off.After dragging on for more than half a year and spending all of the family's savings, the father Gan, who was in his prime, left his three young children behind.In order to treat his illness and arrange funerals for him, the Gan family owed a "huge debt" of more than ten pennies.

The eldest brother and the second brother who are studying in private schools have to drop out of school and work to pay off their debts.After "coming" to this poor family last month, she also began to find ways to earn a little money to supplement the family.

She went to a dental office to find a job, but because she was young and a girl who didn't know how to sew, no one wanted to hire her at all.Let's start a small business. The family is so poor that they can't get rid of it. Where does the capital come from?
One day, she wanted to work in a restaurant, but accidentally found that the restaurant was selling ice bowls. Then she realized that eating cold drinks is also popular in this era, but the price of cold drinks is too high.

A small ice bowl sells for [-] Wen, and many ordinary households spend less than [-] Wen a day!It's really noble food.

Gan Tiantian remembers that in the world of his own dimension, people in the Tang and Song Dynasties had already mastered ice-making technology.Folk use of ice has been very common since the Song Dynasty.But in the Xiao Dynasty where she is now, if you want to make cold drinks, you can only buy ice bricks from the official ice cellar and make them. People don't know how to make ice.

Gan Tiantian, a science student, thanked his chemistry teacher [-] times in his heart, turned around and tried to find a bag of saltpeter in the bacon shop to make ice. Fortunately, this thing didn't cost a few pennies.

A few days ago, she and her brothers had only sold ice bowls at the market a few times. Although the business was good, it had only just paid off.What a character explosion tonight!
“It would be great if there was a night market every day!”

Looking at the ice bucket specially modified with cotton wool, which was empty at this time, Gan Tiantian only hated himself for underestimating the purchasing power of the people of Deling.

"Yes, yes!" Gan Dong, the second elder brother of the Gan family who was busy counting the money, nodded his head, admiring his younger sister's ability: "Fortunately, we listened to you and made twenty extra catties of ice bricks today."

"Oh, there are still few... The next night market will not be until the Mid-Autumn Festival." Although Gan Tiantian was happy, he was still quite regretful.

No way, it's not easy for her to think of such a way to make money, although it's not as profitable as other businesses... For example, at the stall selling sachets diagonally opposite, the proprietress counted the money and got cramps in her hands!
I heard that the incense shops in the city are sold out of stock today, this is Xiao Chao's most profitable business, a huge profit.

Xiao Chaoren's devotion to fragrance really opened the eyes of an outsider like her!
