Traveling through farming with the system, I cooked delicious food in ancient times
Chapter 116 Pastry Workshop 2
The soil and hot springs in the cave can indeed promote the growth of fruits and vegetables.
The cucumber seedlings and zucchini seedlings planted last time have all grown up and yielded a good harvest.
Mao Xi carried a basket of cucumbers and zucchini down the mountain. He passed Brother Chunsheng's paddy field and saw that he had begun sowing rice.
She entered her personal space and checked the jasmine rice seeds she brought back from Nanzhou last year. She gave some to Chunsheng and asked him to sow them together.
"Ah Shu, are these seeds you left from last season too?"
"Brother Chunsheng, these are the seeds I brought back from Nanzhou. Jasmine rice is delicious when made into clay pot rice."
"Thank you Ah Shu, you always bring back so many unique seeds and seedlings. Remember to call me when you need help planting rice!"
Brother Chunsheng is very diligent, and he basically does all the work in the fields alone.
Mao Xi brought some freshly picked fruits and vegetables to Aunt Shen's house. She wanted to invite Aunt Shen to work in a pastry workshop, which would make more money than doing farm work and sewing at home.
"Auntie, would you like to work in my newly opened fruit cake workshop?"
Aunt Shen admits that she is not good at cooking and is a little modest: "Ah Shu, I am an old woman who only knows how to make simple pastries. If I really want to go to your bakery, I'm afraid I don't have the skills, right?"
"How could it be? Auntie, the yam cakes you make are delicious. My workshop mainly sells vegetarian cakes. The recipes are very simple. There are two helpers in the workshop. From now on, my mother will be in charge of the workshop. The salary is twenty taels per month. How about the silver?"
Aunt Shen felt that the monthly payment offered by Mao Xi was good, so she agreed.
"Then you can go back and talk to Brother Chunsheng, and you can come to the workshop tomorrow."
Mao Xi brought the fruits and vegetables back to Liuxiang Snacks and asked Xiaoqing to make some cold cucumbers as an appetizer. When she didn't see Lou Lan'er, she asked, "Xiao Qing, where is Sister Lan'er?"
"Sister Lan'er took the food from the store and went to Mr. Qi to paint today."
"Do you have any paintings you have painted before?" Shu Xi asked.
"No, Sister Lan'er just went to see Mr. Qi today."
Mao Xi had originally intended to match up so that they could have a chance to be alone together.
She told her mother about the idea of inviting Aunt Shen to the fruit cake workshop, and Mrs. Chen was very supportive.
"I'll go over and watch the workshop then." She has almost learned the skill of making cakes from her daughter.
Mao Xi plans to take on some custom-made butter cake work in the future and leave the rest to Chen.
While the mother and daughter were discussing, Ah Su, the assistant cook of the fruit cake workshop, hurried over: "My boss, someone from the street department is here. They said that the carriage outside our workshop blocked the market, and they will be fined money."
There was a carriage parked at the door of the fruit cake workshop, with two horses leading at the front.
The fruit cake workshop is next to the market. The road is relatively narrow, and the carriage at the door takes up half of the road.
Moreover, the workshop is newly opened, and there are many good people doing business. Many vendors who carry burdens like to set up stalls near the workshop. Today is also market day, so it will be jammed.
Mao Xi and Asu rushed back to the workshop and saw the boy from the street department holding a stick and rushing the vendors nearby to clear the way.
When he saw his boss returning to the workshop, he stepped forward and shouted: "Hurry up and take the carriage away from the entrance of your workshop. How congested is this market? Otherwise, I will fine you money!"
Mao Xi saw a man who looked like a butler sitting in the workshop, and stepped forward to greet him: "Hello, distinguished guest, can you take your carriage to the wooden archway at the entrance of the market? There is a lot of space there, but the road here is narrow. I'm afraid it will affect everyone." In and out.”
The steward stood up and ordered his servants to move the car away.
"Dear guest, do you want to order a butter cake?" Shui Xi stepped forward and asked.
"I heard that for the magistrate's birthday last time, I got a custom-made birthday cake from your shop?"
"Exactly, because the butter cake is inconvenient to transport, it requires two people to make it on site."
"That's no problem. In five days, our young lady will be getting married. We specially ordered a butter cake. It should be more festive and have a big red 囍 character on it."
Seeing that the visitor was from a wealthy family, Mao Xi took the opportunity to sell a double-layer cake: "Do you want a single-layer cake or a double-layer cake?"
"Can it be made double-layered? Are there any reference products?"
Mao Xi shook her head in embarrassment, but she promised that she was definitely happy.
"Shopkeeper, it's settled. My master is the general leader of all the guilds in Kaitang County. He is in charge of the rice and wheat shop, the cloth shop, the lumber shop, and the wine shop. If this business is successful, I will ensure that you will have a lot of money in the future. !”
After that, the housekeeper left a deposit of 200 wen, and also paid two taels a day for the work fee, promising that a carriage would come to pick him up that day.
After seeing off the housekeeper, Mao Xi called the cook Ah Su to her side: "If I'm not in the workshop in the future, and there are guests like today who come with carriages, you can help lead the carriages to the wooden archway first, so as not to worry about it. The people from the street department came to drive people away again.
My mother will come to the workshop tomorrow. If you have anything to tell her, don’t panic! If you want to order a cake, please ask me to come directly to Liuxiang Snacks. "
"Okay, boss." Ah Su returned to the workshop and continued busy making vegetarian cakes.
Mao Xi regretted that he was greedy for the cheap rent of this workshop and did not consider the issues of customer parking and street management.
She went to the wooden archway again and checked around it. Fortunately, there was a small open space next to the archway, and there were no other shops nearby, otherwise the street department guy would have to drive the car again.
Mao Xi found the guy from the Street Department and apologized to him for the parking outside the workshop that affected traffic today.
"Brother, today is my problem. If guests' cars come in the future, I will ask them to park at the wooden archway."
"It's good that the road is open, otherwise I will be deducted from my wages, and you can't park for too long at the wooden archway. If you have more customers in the future, you might as well rent a parking space specifically for guests to park, which saves me coming here. Clear the way.”
"Okay, okay." Mao Xi responded with a smile.
This little brother is usually a bit arrogant. With the order stick in his hand, he often acts arrogant when he sees stalls and passers-by blocking the road.
The nearby vendors hated him and ran away early every time they saw him patrolling to clear the way.
Nanquemen's officialdom is broad, so Mao Xi plans to move the custom-made cake business to Liuxiang Snacks. After all, he is here, and the Liu family's fruit cakes are still mainly workshops. After all, the reception capacity is limited.
After arranging things for the fruit cake workshop, Shui Xi prepared to go to Qi Rui's painting academy to check the progress of his promotional posters.
The street clerk had just finished clearing away the street vendors in the market and was about to patrol the bridge.
Suddenly, a projectile came from nowhere and hit his back.
"Ouch!" The little brother shouted again, and he was hit by a bullet in the butt.
The little brother rubbed it and looked around, but saw no one. He thought it was another little kid who was causing mischief, so he stopped pursuing it.
Xiaodouzi and Xiaopang were hiding in the corner of the shop, holding slingshots over their mouths and laughing secretly.
"Little fat little fat, I hit his butt, who told him to go to my sister's shop to cause trouble, huh!"
Xiaodouzi said proudly, but at this moment, his sister Miao Xi was already standing behind him, akimbo staring at him.
