Chapter 49 Selling cold shepherd's purse

In the blink of an eye, the house has been built for more than ten days. The foundation has been laid, and the bricks are being laid. It is estimated that it will be completed in another ten days.

And because Gu Liuyun came to eat at night, he either carried two pheasants or a hare. Even though the weather was getting colder and the prey was getting harder to find, he never stopped.

He Jinyi's family also saved more and more food expenses.

This day, He Lanshan looked at the big pot of shepherd's purse that she had picked.

Basically, every few days, the family would get a pot of cold shepherd's purse for the villagers who came to help, and they would eat it up every time. The colder the weather, the better the growth of shepherd's purse.

"Mother, tell me, should we sell some cold shepherd's purse?" He Lanshan looked at Zhao Shuangxi who came out to wash the cabbage and asked, her apricot eyes twinkled, thinking about her way of making money.

With the core of an executive, He Lanshan is really not used to eating rice at home every day.

"Lanshan, how can business be so easy? Look at the village who sell their own eggs and vegetables one by one, but they can't sell much every time." Zhao Shuangxi shook his head disapprovingly.

Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants are the lowest class, and ordinary villagers don't make much money at all.

He Lanshan didn't expect that Zhao Shuangxi would disagree on this matter. Maybe she didn't know how much profit the peddler made. white-collar workers earn more.

She hugged the shepherd's purse bowl and approached Zhao Shuangxi, trying to persuade her, "Mother, you see, although this is a wild vegetable, everyone likes it when we make it cold."

"Silly girl, you don't need money. If you want money, you don't want to cut the meat." Zhao Shuangxi nodded He Lanshan's forehead to see that the little girl was still too young.

"Mom, didn't Dad say that the people in the county are rich. They eat meat every day, and meat is not a rare thing for them. The roads in the county are all cobblestone roads, and they are not all wasteland like ours. There are wild vegetables everywhere, maybe this is rare!"

Holding the shepherd's purse, He Lanshan nodded and preached to Zhao Shuangxi.

Zhao Shuangxi felt that what He Lanshan said was reasonable, but he hesitated to take the first step.

She worried: "Then if we are going to set up a stall, why don't we get a small cart, and we need to buy oiled paper to pack it in. If we can't sell it, it will be thrown in our hands."

"Mom, you don't need those."

He Lanshan and Zhao Shuangxi analyzed it carefully again. Those who are going to the county now are either from the county or from the village.Basically, everyone in the village brought bowls, including He Jinyi, when he went to the county town. Sometimes he asked people for saliva, but the people in the county town took them only a few steps away when they went home.

Moreover, the cost of this cold shepherd's purse is not high. Shepherd's purse is something that grows on the wasteland, and their cost is just some seasoning.

While Zhao Shuangxi was still hesitating, He Jinyi didn't know where to come out from, and clapped his hands in agreement, "Lanshan's idea is good, it's a way of making a living anyway."

"Oh, just fool around with the child!" Zhao Shuangxi shook his head and said.

"This is not nonsense, let Lanshan make a bucket of cold shepherd's purse tomorrow, anyway, Liuyun will bring back prey every day, so I will go back to the county every day to sell it."

As He Jinyi said, He Lanshan nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, thinking of going with her.

"I don't care about you!" Zhao Shuangxi went into the house seeing that he couldn't be persuaded.

All afternoon, He Lanshan was digging shepherd's purse outside, because she didn't know how the cold shepherd's purse business was doing, so it couldn't affect He Qinfeng, who was trading pigweed for sweet potatoes.

When I get the shepherd's purse back, I'm going to try some.

Although Zhao Shuangxi said to let them do it, but he was afraid that He Lanshan would be scalded, so he also helped boil the shepherd's purse.

"Mother, although the shepherd's purse cold salad we made is delicious, I think it's not enough to sell it. We need to add more sesame oil, crushed sesame seeds, and crushed peanuts. It would be even better if there was chili sauce."

He Lanshan thought to make it more complicated and taste better, so it would be difficult for others to learn.

"All right, all right, my little ancestor, mother will get it for you." Although Zhao Shuangxi was not optimistic about this business, she still actively went to help He Lanshan collect these things.

Soon Zhao Shuangxi spent money to buy these things.

The improved version of shepherd's purse salad was ready, and Zhao Shuangxi tasted it with a chopstick.

"Mom, how does it taste?" He Lanshan stared at her, not daring to blink her nervous eyes.

"Lanshan, this is too delicious. The original shepherd's purse cold salad can only be said to be refreshing, but now it is indescribably delicious. If you eat this girl, you can eat two big black-faced steamed buns."

As Zhao Shuangxi said, he picked up another big chopstick, chewing hard on his cheeks.

He Lanshan curled her lips into a smile, it seemed that this would be all right.

"Girl, how can these sesame seeds and peanuts be used as seasonings? They taste good." Zhao Shuangxi asked curiously.

"I ate it in my dream, and I thought it was delicious, so I asked my mother to make it out and try it." He Lanshan saw that last time she talked about the Bodhisattva, Zhao Shuangxi and the others believed it, so now she also casually talked about it. One sentence.

Sure enough, Zhao Shuangxi didn't ask any more questions. She thought that it might be the Bodhisattva who blessed their family and wanted them to have a stable and profitable business. Lanshan is a lucky child.

"Okay, mother's meeting, tomorrow morning when mother gets up to do it, you can sleep peacefully." Zhao Shuangxi patted her chest and said wrap it on her body, He Lanshan nodded in satisfaction.

Early the next morning, when He Lanshan got up to eat breakfast, He Jinyi had already gone to the county seat with Zhao Shuangxi's cold shepherd's purse and a roe deer that Gu Liuyun had brought back last night.

There was a bowl of cold shepherd's purse dug out on the dining table. He Lanshan ate it with sweet potato porridge, and thought it tasted the same as what she made yesterday. Zhao Shuangxi is a smart person.

For the next few hours, He Lanshan felt anxious like never before.

Although selling mad dog's brains is the first pot of gold, but now it is a business, strictly speaking, it is the first step of starting a business. She didn't go anywhere all morning, just waiting for He Jinyi to come back.

It was still after noon when He Jinyi came back.

He was carrying a basket on his back and a wooden barrel in his hand, which was used to hold the cold shepherd's purse.He Lanshan wished she could see how much cold shepherd's purse was left in the barrel with her clairvoyant eyes.

"Sold out!" He Jinyi said relaxedly, and put the wooden barrel in his hand on the ground, and the empty barrel collided with the ground and made a "bang-dang" sound.

"Father, it's really sold out, you didn't lie to me, did you?"

"real."

He Lanshan was still skeptical, thinking that He Jinyi was consoling herself by throwing away her shepherd's purse salad and lying to herself.

"Really! You see, this is the money I earned today. A total of 23 bowls were sold."
