The happy little days of the Ye family

Not long after Ye Donglin left, Father Ye came over with the pig heads and pig guts that he had cleaned at home.

Although Ye's father's braised pork shop is not big, there are many varieties of braised pork in it.

There are braised pig heads, braised pig offal, braised pig trotters, braised pork ribs, braised eggs, braised duck and braised vegetables.

Braised duck and braised vegetables are divided into spicy and non-spicy original flavors.

Father Ye was worried that Wang Chunyu would be too busy alone, so he came to the grocery store to have a look.

At this time, there were only two or three women in the grocery store buying vegetables and grains, and Wang Chunyu was very agile and could still keep busy.

Father Ye saw that there was no need for help at the grocery store, so after saying hello to Wang Chunyu, he went back to make braised pork.

Most of the people who came to the grocery store in the morning were women. In addition to buying vegetables, they also bought grain. Some also brought some dry goods such as dried bamboo shoots and dried mushrooms.

Two kilograms of red dates and brown sugar were also sold, and most of the sour beans and bamboo shoots brought by Wang Chunyu were also sold.

The vegetables and fish he brought were all sold out. Wang Chunyu counted the money at the counter and found that a total of 380 wen was sold in the morning.

Ye Donglin has calculated that the profit of grocery stores is generally about 76%, and the profit in the morning is about [-] yuan.

This profit may not look like much, but it is only half a morning's profit. If it were a whole day, there would be more than 100 yuan in profit.

Wang Chunyu locked the counter where the money was placed and cleaned the place where vegetables and fish were originally placed.

After selling out the vegetables, the grocery store became a little deserted, with only one or two people visiting occasionally.

Most of what I buy is salt, vinegar, rice wine and other seasonings, or grains and other things that are used every day.

When the smoke started to rise on the street, almost no one came to the grocery store. At this time, the Yejia braised pork shop next door was doing good business.

The freshly baked braised pork has a very rich flavor, and you can smell the aroma of the braised pork from a few streets next door.

Yejia Braised Pork Shop has a wide variety of items. The more expensive ones include braised pork head meat and braised pork ribs, while the braised vegetables, braised eggs and braised pig offal are all very cheap.

You can choose what you want, and it's up to people to be rich and frugal. There are a lot of people coming here to buy braised pork.

If there are guests in any house, they will come over and buy some braised pork. There are also some women who are lazy or cannot cook and often come over to buy braised dishes.

Wang Chunyu saw that no one came to the grocery store, so he simply went to the braised meat shop to help.

Wang Chunyu often cooks and has pretty good knife skills. He helps cut the meat at the table, while Father Ye weighs and collects money.

Later, when it was time for dinner, there were even more people at the braised pork shop. Many students from the college next door came over to eat braised pork rice.

Now that the weather is getting hotter, Father Ye made a big pot of mung bean soup while cooking braised pork. Everyone who came over to eat braised pork rice received free mung bean soup.

As soon as Wang Chunyu put the food on the table, he heard the boy at the next table complaining that he was tired of eating braised pork every day.

If it is really easy to get tired of eating braised pork rice every day, we should develop more new dishes.

However, Wang Chunyu didn't say much, and planned to go back and research some simple dishes that could be sold at the braised pork shop.

Wang Chunyu didn't know if he could research it. He was afraid that if he revealed it, everyone would be happy if it was done.

Ye Donglin came out of the grocery store and not long after he walked to the official road, he met Tang Xiaojing, who was also going to the county.

The two brothers happened to be company and went to the county together.

It was already late when the two of them arrived outside the city gate. There were very few people entering the city at this time, and most of them were waiting to leave the city with large and small bags.

There was no need to queue even if there were only two people, so I quickly paid the entrance fee and entered.

Ye Donglin wanted to go to West Street and Chenjiapu Cloth Store to purchase goods, while Tang Xiaojing wanted to go to Wangjia Pharmacy. The two of them didn't go along the way, so they left separately after entering the county.

When Shopkeeper Wang saw Tang Xiaojing's beaming smile, he knew that there was something good again and his wallet was about to gain weight again.

Shopkeeper Wang very enthusiastically invited Tang Xiaojing to his exclusive small room. Before Tang Xiaojing could stand firm, Shopkeeper Wang took the basket behind him.

The ordinary herbs used above were casually thrown aside by Shopkeeper Wang, and then Shopkeeper Wang saw the dendrobium at the bottom of the basket.

"This dendrobium is of good quality."

Shopkeeper Wang happily took out the dendrobium, but he didn't expect that there were quite a few old Polygonatum and Polygonum multiflorum under the basket.

"You're so lucky, kid. Where can you get so many medicinal materials of such good quality and age?"

Tang Xiaojing smiled honestly and said: "I was lucky yesterday. These herbs were collected in the next town."

Although Tang Xiaojing had a good relationship with Shopkeeper Wang, he had no intention of revealing Xiaogu's affairs to Shopkeeper Wang.

Not only shopkeeper Wang, Tang Xiaojing had no intention of letting the fourth person know about the existence of Xiaogu.

Tang Xiaojing could only say that they were recovered elsewhere, but shopkeeper Wang just asked casually and didn't care about the origin of these herbs.

Shopkeeper Wang was very satisfied with the dendrobium brought over by Tang Xiaojing and said cheerfully:

"The branches of this dendrobium are so thick and the medicinal effect is very good. I paid 17 taels and 5 yuan for this dendrobium."

Tang Xiaojing said with a smile: "Brother Wang is fair in dealing with things. I will do as you say."

Shopkeeper Wang took out the polygonatum and polygonum multiflorum from the bottom of the basket and carefully checked the age and efficacy of these medicinal materials.

Shopkeeper Wang took the four largest Polygonatum japonicas and looked at them carefully in his hands.

"These four Polygonatum japonicas are 4 or 960 years old. Polygonatum odorata with such an old age is not common. They are priced at [-] per plant."

Then I looked at the remaining smaller ones. In fact, they were not old, and the efficacy was still very good.

"These two trees that are about 10 years old are priced at 800 yuan each. The remaining four trees that are seven or eight years old are priced at 4 yuan each."

Finally, there are two Polygonum multiflorum trees. “These two Polygonum multiflorum trees are of good vintage and medicinal effect, and they cost 650 yuan each.”

The prices given by shopkeeper Wang are actually concocted prices.

These medicinal materials were simply processed by Tang Xiaojing and had not yet been prepared. Tang Xiaojing took advantage of them, so he naturally had no objection.

Shopkeeper Wang was in a very good mood and took out the abacus and fiddled with it.

Shopkeeper Wang looked like he was doing nothing, but he was actually very cautious in doing things. After calculating twice and getting it right, he said cheerfully:

“黄精加上何首乌一共是9两540文，石斛17两5钱，那一些寻常草药就算你20文好了，总共27两60文。”

Shopkeeper Wang took out two silver ingots worth ten taels, and some broken silver and copper plates. After counting them twice, he gave the silver to Tang Xiaojing.

Tang Xiaojing trusted Shopkeeper Wang very much and put the money given by Shopkeeper Wang into his wallet without counting it.

Then Tang Xiaojing brought two large baskets from the ox cart.

One basket contains dried mushrooms and bamboo shoots, while the other basket contains bacon, including cured chicken, cured rabbit and cured pork.

The piles of dry goods and bacon are enough to feed shopkeeper Wang and his family for two to three months.

Shopkeeper Wang took the two baskets with a smile and joked:

"Assuming you have a conscience, it seems that those albums of mine were not given away in vain. But there are so many good things, so be careful that you won't be able to enter the room when you go back at night."

"Qingqing has a broad mind, so he won't be so stingy. Besides, it was Qingqing who took care of these things." Tang Xiaojing said cheerfully.

Although Ye Qingqing is a small money fan, he is still quite generous. In this regard, he is very compatible with Tang Xiaojing.
