Pinellia pastoral

Chapter 86 Sales
Ban Xia just followed Lin'an like this, turned around and hugged the jar, turned around and went to the guest room.

This time, she realized that the design of Jufeng Building is very ingenious.

Turning around here is not completely unreasonable, and the door that passes by can be disturbed as much as possible.

"Hehe, with so many rooms, it's really nice to not be able to hear any movement." Ban Xia had nothing to say.

Lin'an looked at her and smiled slightly, "No one."

"no one?"

"Our young master doesn't like to be disturbed, so we rented it out. Anyway, this place is not expensive, so it won't be disturbed by others, not to mention that this person needs to rest when he is ill." Lin'an took it for granted.

rest?Why do you come to the restaurant to rest? !Ban Xia rolled her eyes, originally thinking that she had some old friendship with him, and it would be fine to get by, but now she made up her mind to play it by ear later.

its not right?Ban Xia stopped in her tracks, "Since there is no one there, why is there still a candle in the guest room, you see it just went in and changed it."

Lin'an still didn't have any unnecessary reactions, "It doesn't cost much to light candles tonight, otherwise the whole building would be deserted, and I would feel uncomfortable just looking at it."

uncomfortable?Thinking that her family can't even bear to light the oil lamps, Ban Xia feels...too unbalanced!

Of course, this imbalance can only be reflected in the twitching of the corners of the mouth, and he smiled again, "Then, it's very bug-inducing, right?"

After speaking, I really wanted to slap myself.

Lin'an chuckled and didn't say anything more.

The place has arrived.

Soon, Ban Xia went in, holding such a jar, Lin'an took the jar again and handed it in.

Ban Xia stood in front of the table, and could only vaguely see a human figure inside, lying with no bones in his body, was this the person Su Youli was talking about?How could it be possible to chat with Su Youli all day with such an appearance?Amazing.

After a while, a calm voice finally sounded, "Is this what you said can be framed?"

Ban Xia cleared her throat, thinking that she is here to sell?And this is the most basic thing, and he answered solemnly, "This is not enough, but it is indispensable."

A voice from inside sounded, "It's not as fine as flour."

Ban Xia, who just opened her mouth to say something, was stunned by such words, but she warned herself that the most basic thing to sell, sell, is to have a thick skin, so she didn't care about it, "The main thing is stickiness, whether it's fine or not. Next."

"Oh?" There was finally a hint of interest.

Ban Xia was in a hurry, but his thoughts were not chaotic at all, "You must understand, my lord. If this is to be mounted well, it must be insect-proof and moth-proof, and it must be able to maintain its original appearance. It is better to be like glue paint. It is not as fine as flour, but it can be ground first, and then sift it into the water with the finest sieve."

After speaking, I saw that there were no words in it.

In fact, the scene inside is that the man muttered to himself, "Is it actually using a sieve?"

But Ban Xia couldn't hear it, she slandered in her heart, it was really not easy to make money, selling cassava flour by herself, and even being proficient in mounting pictures!
"I heard that you have a way to prevent moths from eating?"

Ban Xia laughed dryly, "Don't dare, I just heard someone say it, so I know some superficial facts."

"Then talk about fur."

I have to say that Banxia dislikes dealing with this person even more than the one in Yaoliao, and she doesn't know why she suddenly thought of that at this moment, so she attributed it to the fact that this person is not easy to serve. as far away as possible.

But I couldn’t leave at the moment, so I could only bite the bullet and tell what I knew, “First boil a pot of water with two taels of peppercorns, remove the residue for later use, then sieve the powder evenly with a small sieve, and let it float and sink naturally. Days, ten days and eight days in winter, after sex, add alum and bletilla striata, and it's almost done."

As for the details, Ban Xia really doesn't know.

But the person inside obviously didn't think so, "Will I get water or slag? How much alum should be added, three or five renminbi? Anything else?"

Pinellia was a little bit petrified, how could I know such details, but she was very calm, "Master, Banxia just wants to provide you with starch. If you have this, you must be able to do it yourself. This elegant thing in the literati world, you can do it yourself. Wouldn't it be more beautiful if you figured it out?"

I just want to sell some cassava flour, do you care so much?

These were the words in Ban Xia's heart, but she didn't say them out.

The conversation suddenly changed, "Are you literate?"

Ban Xia loses her temper, she just opened her mouth and said, "I understand."

"Oh."

Oh, there was a sound, and there was no sound for a long time, Ban Xia almost thought that he was going to fall asleep, and he didn't know whether he should leave while standing.

In the end, it was Lin'an who was waiting, and he carefully brought Banxia out, his footsteps were light, "My lord is asleep."

Really fell asleep?Ban Xia Fu forehead, this, this...

Can you just admit to being unlucky?
Lin'an didn't want to walk some distance, but stopped, "Young master said, you have to try this thing before you know it, so the method I mentioned to you can also send a batch first, and give a tael of silver a catty. "

One tael of silver, one catty!Pinellia is excited.

I wish I had discovered cassava later in the first place, so the cassava that is full of mountains will not be all money by then!
Soon he felt that it was impossible, Xin Taoist should not be too greedy, if it hadn't been discovered early, how could he make money, there was no money, and when Su Youli sprained his waist, he didn't have the confidence to let him go to Niuling to raise him Ah, and the most important thing, if the cassava is not eaten up, I probably can't think of a way to process the starch, so where is the money?

So it seems that he walked over step by step inadvertently, and it is not without reason up to this time.

"We can't take much at a time. If we need it later, we will bring another bag." Lin'an didn't know if he noticed the radiance on Ban Xia's face, so he added.

If it's really a matter of getting several carriages, it's not bad for so much money, but I don't know how to transport them back.

a bag?A sack? That's not too little.Anyway, if there are many, I don't have any.

Pinellia is still very acceptable.

Lin'an didn't say anything more, and made an appointment to send him here within three days.

He must be leaving again.

Pinellia was so excited, but she didn't forget the business.

Suppressing this kind of happiness, there is nothing more enjoyable than suddenly knowing one day that the dispensable things on hand are very valuable. On the premise that she wants to save money, she can't wait to get it immediately Go tell Su Youli.

But he also paused, and went to help in the kitchen by himself.

Start well and end well.

But Lin'an returned to the house, the eyes of the people inside were clear, and they looked like they were asleep.

"This girl can still read?"

Then, he asked Lin'an about the whole process of going to Su's house, but didn't say anything more.

It was Lin'an who mentioned, "Just now Banxia said that the young master is so delicate, and the teapot on the table is quite similar to her second uncle."

That teapot has already been cracked, and it was cured very cleverly. Her second uncle, a farmer in the country?
Laughed, thinking about the teapot, he didn't have much to say.

Ban Xia suddenly sneezed in the kitchen, sniffed and hurried out to wash his hands and face, for fear of being disgusted by the people in the kitchen, "I don't have a cold, but the nose suddenly itched just now, and I washed it clean."

"Little girl is quite sensible. Our boss has strict requirements on the kitchen, and everything must be clean. I heard that your family has four children. You are a neat person. You can ask the boss to allow you to come and light the fire." , can also have a wage." The simple and honest master said.

Ban Xia thanked her, but didn't continue to say, how much money can she make a month as a fire girl?This is not her goal.

But she knew that these people also had good intentions. After all, at her age, she couldn't help much in the countryside. If she could really earn 100 or [-] Wen a month, that would be a big income.

Others are familiar with each other anyway, no matter what they do, they are very fast. Before Banxia, ​​they just talked about how to make those things and made them. I don’t know how much better they are than hers, so they left without saying anything.

The more I thought about it, the more I realized, could this really be two taels of silver specially given by Wu Liangping?Otherwise it is unscientific.

Pinellia was skeptical, and went to have a meal with Su Youli and Yuan Guang.

Wu Liangping was on the sidelines, but Su Youli didn't dare to drink anymore, so he didn't try to persuade them. The two of them talked about what Su Youli said, such as the harvest of the fields, and the people who didn't have a separate family back then. How is the family at that time.

After dinner, it's time to say goodbye.

Only then did Ban Xia tell the story of her going to Lin'an just now, "One tael of silver per catty, just one bag, but we only have so much, it's really not easy to get it."

One tael of silver, only... Su Youli was staggering.

Ban Xia laughed out loud, "Father, we need to plant cassava first, so much cassava, it takes a year to plant, dig it back, smash it and boil it out to dry, every step of the way requires effort, and it may not be possible to grow much. , it’s normal to be more expensive, not to mention that Mr. Zhao’s family even pays for the hotel, so he still lacks such a little money?”

No matter what he said, Su Youli still couldn't calm down.

Pinellia doesn’t care about that much, she is willing to sell the cassava flour if they sell it, and I’m afraid there will be no such opportunities in the future, “By the time I have this sum of money, my brother and younger brother will be able to go to school. "

Yuan Guang was also a little excited, and the three returned to Dongwang Village with various thoughts.

After crossing the stone arch bridge, Ban Xia looked up at the undulating mountains, and let out a deep breath.

Looking at his yard again, he pursed his lips and smiled, and walked more briskly.

How happy it would be for Mrs. Li to know.

Unexpectedly, when they just entered the yard, they heard a burst of crying and cursing.

What is this fuss about?
With tears in her eyes, Yuan Chen came over and held Ban Xia's hand tightly.

Gu Ya'er often cries, but she doesn't care about it, it's okay to cry once, but Yuanchen seldom sheds tears, watching him shed tears but silently wiped them away, Ban Xia's heart melted away .
