General, Madam Called You To Farm

Is there any in town? asked a cook.

No, said the master.

Where's Fucheng? Shopkeeper Sun asked.

The master shook his head: There is no Fucheng either. This kind of salted egg is eaten by the dignitaries and nobles in Beijing, and ordinary small states are not allowed to sell.

That's not right. Shopkeeper Sun wondered, This stuff is only sold in the capital. Could it be that the girl bought it from the capital?

——

Today's stall is late, and the regular customers are anxiously waiting.

Are you floating? Jinji has already sold two pots!

Shen Chuan said sullenly.

Su Xiaoxiao asked, Hey? Why did you come here today?

Passing by. Shen Chuan said.

Oh. Su Xiaoxiao wrapped five egg yolk pastries and handed them to the aunt in front of them, Your dessert, one hundred cents.

Egg yolk cake is expensive, ten cents more expensive than wife cake and chestnut cake.

Here, the list. Shen Chuan handed her the list that he had been carrying all the way.

Su Xiaoxiao was surprised: Did you make a special trip to send me the list? Actually, we don't have to. After we finish the business here, we will go to the academy to get it ourselves.

Shen Chuan said angrily, I told you that I was passing by, and I just brought it to you!

Su Xiaoxiao asked, You're a little angry today, and you're having trouble with the dean again?

Shen Chuan was told the central matter and sighed: He has to let me go to Fucheng to study after the spring, I don't want to go!

This is a family matter of the Shen family, and it is inconvenient for Su Xiaoxiao to talk about it.

Here you are. Su Xiaoxiao gave him a family photo of dim sum, I don't charge you for it.

Why? Shen Chuan asked.

Comfort you. Su Xiaoxiao said seriously.

Shen Chuan: ...

Shen Chuan coughed lightly: I'm a big man and need your little girl to comfort me? Give it!

He threw a small piece of silver to Su Xiaoxiao, No need to look for it, I'm happy today!

He's going to lose his dad's fortune!

Violent defeat!

Shen Da Gongzi, who had lost his fortune, swaggered away.

Su Xiaoxiao handed over the money to Su Ergou for collection: Do you understand?

Su Ergou shook his head.

I don't understand, I don't understand why her sister didn't want money, but Young Master Shen gave more money instead?

Su Xiaoxiao patted him on the shoulder: Learn slowly.

The flow of people on the street was obviously much lower than that of the previous days. In addition, they came too late, and many guests waited for a long time, thinking that they would not show up today.

Sister, today's sales are a bit slow. Su Ergou said.

It's okay, it's normal to have ups and downs in business. Su Xiaoxiao's mentality is very good, probably really fat, not in a hurry.

She earned 45 taels from selling recipes, and 32 taels of consultation fees from Young Master Xiang, so she no longer had to worry about starvation in the short term.

However, the business always has to grow slowly, and if she wants to expand the scale of production, she has to invest more capital.

In addition, the family house is also old.

This house was built when Mrs. Chen and Dad Su got married. More than ten years later, the walls were cracked, the roof was hairy, and the wind and rain leaked.

She plans to put building a house on the agenda after the spring.

After such a calculation, the money earned has to be spent again before it is warmed up.

Just as he was thinking about it, Shopkeeper Sun walked over to Jinji with his hands behind his back.

Yo, Miss Su, come to set up the stall again.

He came to the two of them, glanced at the snacks in Su Xiaoxiao's tray, and said with a smile, Business is not very good today.

Su Ergou had a bad look at the shopkeeper Sun who had forcefully bought their formula: Why are you here again? I warn you, there is no formula to sell to you! I won't sell it in the future!

I'm not here to buy the formula, I'm here to get your money back!

What's the money back? You took all the recipes, you don't want to deceive us!

Su Ergou understands the tricks of deceiving people too well.

Shopkeeper Sun took out a piece of formula from his wide sleeve, brushed it in front of Su Xiaoxiao, and said, You sell fake formulas to me! Even if you make trouble at the yamen, you don't take care of it!

Su Xiaoxiao said: I said it myself, you write it yourself, unless you made a mistake, there will never be a problem with the formula.

Shopkeeper Sun said, But the desserts I made according to your recipe are different from the ones you sell!

Su Xiaoxiao looked puzzled: Really?

Shopkeeper Sun beckoned behind him, and a guy trotted over with a plate of egg yolk pastry.

Taste it yourself!

Shopkeeper Sun said.

Su Xiaoxiao opened the egg yolk cake: No need to taste it, it's really different from what I made.

Shopkeeper Sun said coldly, You admit it!

Su Xiaoxiao said: But I also made it strictly according to the recipe. It's not the recipe. It's because you bought the wrong ingredients. No wonder I!

Shopkeeper Sun gritted her teeth secretly, this girl is really not easy to scare...

Ordinary people were questioned like that, and they panicked and lost their minds, but this girl was unbelievably calm.

Is she really a teenage village girl?

Su Xiaoxiao said sternly: Manager Sun, everyone opens the door to do business. If you are really humbly asking for advice, I can tell you a favor. If you want to blackmail me and deceive me, I advise you to die! I will sell you. The recipe is not afraid of you. I set up a stall in front of your Jinji, and I did steal some of your business. Everyone looked up and didn’t look down. Try it!

In business negotiations, one is to be thick-skinned, and the other is to have a strong aura.

It doesn't matter whether you have it or not, it is enough for people to believe that you have it.

This is the experience that Shopkeeper Sun has cultivated for decades, but it was easily grasped by a little girl.

Needless to say, shopkeeper Sun is really impressed with Su Xiaoxiao at this moment.

Of course, with a bit of gnashing of teeth.

Shopkeeper Sun said without a smile: Okay, as long as you are willing to say where you bought your ingredients, I will believe you.

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows: Is this your attitude to ask for help?

Su Ergou: Why does it sound like what my brother-in-law said?

Shopkeeper Sun: ...

Shopkeeper Sun exaggeratedly smiled and said, Excuse me, Miss Su, where did you buy your salted egg yolks?

Don't tell him it's the capital, if this girl has supplies from the capital, are you still worried that he will cut off the flour in this town!

Su Xiaoxiao said calmly: Oh, you said that, I did it myself.

Shopkeeper Sun was stunned for a moment: By, by, by yourself?

Su Xiaoxiao spread his hands: Yes, you can't do it? It's not difficult.

Shopkeeper Sun almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood.

It's not difficult what it is, the cooks in the town will all come and beat you to death after hearing what you said!

Su Xiaoxiao said generously: For the sake of our cooperation, if you want the salted egg recipe, I can sell it to you at a low price.

Their Kam Kee sells dim sum, not ingredients, so who wants a salted egg recipe!

According to this, do they have to grind their own flour, fry their own sesame oil, grow their own star anise, and dry their own peppercorns?

I also bought the recipe for white sugar and official salt together, and it worked together.

Well, that's not far from death.

In short, Kam Kee does not make its own ingredients.

Shopkeeper Sun said reluctantly, I don't want the recipe, but if you have any salted eggs on hand, you can sell them to me.

Su Xiaoxiao sighed: Well, although the method of salted eggs is not difficult, it is very troublesome. I only made a few of them, and I can't use them myself. How can I sell you more?

Shopkeeper Sun gritted his teeth: The price is easy to negotiate!
