Walking into a cesspit, the best evil widow wants to stand up

Chapter 643: Salt-baked chicken in short supply

Soon it was mid-December in the Gregorian calendar, and the weather was getting colder. The hatchery stopped hatching chicks, and all the 12 chicks that had been hatched previously were distributed.

The remaining people who have not raised chickens are still taking a wait-and-see attitude. They are afraid of losing money and want to see if others can make money by raising chickens. They will then make a decision when the time comes.

It only takes 21 days to hatch a batch of chicks. Shen Ping is not in a hurry now because most of the people in the village who are willing to raise chickens have basically got the chicks.

Shen Ping did not force the remaining people. Even to make money they had to rely on others' lobbying again and again. Shen Ping did not want to say anything more.

She knew that facts would prove everything. The more she urged them to raise chickens, the more they would think that you were profiting from it and taking advantage of them.

And the most important thing is that the weather is getting colder and colder. Even if the chicks are hatched, they need to be kept warm, otherwise they will freeze to death in such a cold weather.

After careful consideration, Shen Ping decided to stop hatching chicks.

That evening, Shopkeepers Hong and Niu and a few others came to the Kaoshan Village Inn one after another and stayed there as if they had made an appointment.

"Oh, what a coincidence, Manager Hong, how come I meet you again this time!" Manager He finished his meal, picked his teeth, turned his head and saw Manager Hong.

Shopkeeper Hong came in from outside with a servant, looking exhausted.

"Manager He, what a coincidence! This time, you came earlier than me! Hahaha..." Manager Hong also saw Manager He at this time and greeted him warmly.

"Hey, where's Shopkeeper Niu?" Shopkeeper Hong looked around and asked, "Is he not here yet?"

"Ha sneeze~Ha sneeze..." A sneeze sounded from outside the door.

Then, a rough voice laughed and said, "It turned out that Shopkeeper Hong was talking about me. No wonder I sneezed so much."

Cheng came out of the cafeteria and saw Shopkeepers Hong and Niu. She greeted them with a smile: "Hey, gentlemen, do you want to eat or stay in the hotel?"

"I want both~"

"I want both~"

Shopkeepers Hong and Niu said at the same time. After that, they looked at each other and laughed again.

What a coincidence! Last time, the three of them arrived on the same day and stayed in the same hotel. I didn’t expect that they would meet together this time.

"Donghua, hurry up and cook some side dishes!" Cheng shouted towards the dining hall, and then raised her voice again: "Ban Bench, tie up the horses of the masters and feed them some good hay."

"Oh~Okay!"

Donggua and Banben responded promptly.

Shopkeeper Hong nodded. This innkeeper was very capable, warm and considerate.

"Manager He, Manager Niu, it's a rare occasion that we get together again. It's really fate that we meet here. Let's sit together!" Manager Hong took the initiative to invite them to sit together.

Shopkeeper He and Shopkeeper Niu looked at each other and smiled: "Hahaha~ That's exactly what I was thinking."

"Gentlemen, come! Have some tea first."

Cheng served tea to everyone and then retreated.

After a while, Donghua cooked some home-cooked dishes, including scrambled eggs with leeks, spicy and sour shredded potatoes, stir-fried pork with garlic, Kung Pao chicken, and pork belly with black fungus.

In addition to the three shopkeepers, there were several other servants. The three shopkeepers asked them all to sit at the table. After a whole day's journey, everyone was hungry. So they did not bother to be polite and after a few more pleasantries, they started to eat.

After a while, everyone finished their meal. Shopkeeper Hong burped and was still not satisfied: "Alas, it's a pity that we don't have the salt-baked chicken today."

When talking about salt-baked chicken, everyone started talking.

"That's right, the chicken is salty and tasty, even the bones are included!"

"My family still wants to eat the chickens we brought back last time. I didn't expect that the packaged chickens didn't taste bad at all after being delayed on the road for so many days!"

"That's right, I was worried that it would go bad, but the smell didn't change at all. I even used it to entertain customers. They all asked me to bring a few back for them and gave me a deposit in advance!" When he said this, Shopkeeper He's face was full of smiles.

This time, he made up his mind that in addition to the soap and chili sauce, he would also buy a batch of salt-baked chicken and braised pork.

Shopkeeper He told the other two shopkeepers about his plan, but he didn't expect that they had the same idea.

"It seems that great minds think alike! Hahaha~" Shopkeeper Hong laughed heartily.

"Oh! But I don't know if Madam Shen has any goods!" Shopkeeper Niu interjected.

Speaking of this, they just remembered that the last time they came, Madam Shen didn't get much. Even if they wanted to purchase more now, they didn't know if there was any stock?

Cheng happened to hear this, so she came over and said with a smile, "Sirs, you haven't been here for a while, right?

I have good news for you. My wife recently opened a new cooked food processing shop. Business is booming. During this period, many people came here to get salt-baked chicken. It is selling very well!"

When the shop owners heard this, they were overjoyed. They didn't expect that Madam Shen would act so quickly and actually open a cooked food processing workshop. People with brains are different.

If it wasn't already dark, the shopkeeper would be eager to get the goods.

After dinner, several shopkeepers went upstairs to rest, each with their own concerns.

What they were worried about at the moment was that they had just heard from Cheng that the salt-baked chicken was selling well. Now they started to worry again, fearing that they would not be able to get the goods by then.

What's more, there are two other shopkeepers who have the same idea as him.

That night, the shopkeepers did not sleep well, and they got up early the next morning. While having breakfast downstairs, the shopkeepers met again.

"Manager Hong, why are you here so early? Why don't you take a rest for a while?" Manager Niu greeted him as soon as they met.

"Shopkeeper Niu, it's the same for us~" Shopkeeper Hong said politely, and then Shopkeeper He came down, and everyone smiled knowingly.

When the workshop opened, several shopkeepers took chili sauce and soap, and then asked for salt-baked chicken. This time, each of them wanted to order several hundred chickens.

But unfortunately, there are not many stocks in the warehouse. There are only dozens of them left. What you fear will come true!

"I'm really sorry, shopkeepers. There are only dozens of chickens in the warehouse right now. Why don't you wait a little longer?" Shen Ping said embarrassedly.

"Alas!

Shopkeeper Hong sighed, "I wanted to go back earlier, but I didn't expect to be delayed again."

The chili sauce and soap were available, but the salt-baked chicken had to wait. The shopkeepers were helpless. Although they knew that time was money, the sooner they could go back a day, the sooner they could exchange these things for silver.

But there is no way, if you want salt-baked chicken, you have to wait.

"How about this, three shopkeepers, I'm really sorry, but I will pay for your stay at the inn today!" Shen Ping said this to dispel their concerns, and also because she wanted everyone to cooperate happily and didn't want to lose the big picture for the small.

"That won't do!" Shopkeeper Hong glared, "We came here to buy your goods to make money, it's not reasonable for us to stay in your hotel and let you pay for it. But just because of what you said, I will wait a little longer, Shopkeeper Niu, don't you agree?!"

Shopkeepers Niu and He also nodded in agreement.
