Chapter 36 Dried Sweet Potatoes

Because the dried tofu sold well, Liu Siniang took her children to make more dried tofu at home.

Dried tofu can be eaten in hot and sour noodles, and you can also buy it and make it as a cold dish. Many people are willing to take another portion home after eating hot and sour noodles to add to their family's dishes.

After a few days, some people who liked dried tofu went to the market to buy vegetables and came here specifically to buy dried tofu.

Lin Xiangxiang thought that someone would definitely imitate, and was afraid of being overtaken by others, so he made two brands at home. One brand said Ping An Hot and Sour Noodles, and the other said Ping An Dried Tofu, and placed them in front of the stall to mark them.

Liu Siniang thinks this is good.

"Peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, meaning, and it happens to be the same as your father's name."

Lin Ping'an felt embarrassed: "Don't people always call them Lin's snacks or something? Isn't it too weird for us to write our names directly?"

Lin Xiangxiang smiled and said: "Dad, there are so many people with the surname Lin, who knows which one belongs to our family? It's easy to distinguish them by using the name, it's easy to pronounce, and it has a good meaning."

Several children also agreed, so Lin Ping'an had no objections.

"Okay, just take these two signs with you."

He put up a sign, but no one paid attention at first. After a few days, everyone knew whose house it was. When talking about eating hot and sour noodles and buying dried tofu, they always said they bought Ping An's house, which is easy to remember and listen to.

During this period, the courtyard wall of their home was repaired, and they were no longer afraid of people standing outside the courtyard and peering in, so they took the opportunity to make more vermicelli.

Anyway, this stuff can be stored for a long time once it's ready. Make more and save it to avoid having to wash and freeze the sweet potatoes when the weather gets cold.

The people in the village just watched their house smoke all day long, and they didn't know what they were busy with.

Some people know that their family is doing business outside, and they think that this business is really booming. You see, they must have cooked a lot of food by burning the fire all day long.

Some people are envious and others are jealous, and want to go in and have a look. The door is closed, so they can't force it to see, so they can only continue to be curious.

Because there are a lot of vermicelli made, firewood is not enough.

Liu Siniang asked Lin Guozi to help collect firewood. The money given was the same as selling firewood in the county town. He didn't have to go to the county town to sell it. He could collect three more bundles of firewood a day, making much more money than before.

In fact, when Liu Siniang found Lin Guozi, she felt pity for the child at first and wanted to help their family.

The second thing is that this kid knows how to repay kindness.

I just gave him some food before, but the next day he put a bundle of firewood at the door of the house.

You know, the old man took their flesh and still scolded them, but he was worse than an outsider in comparison.

Lin Guozi made good firewood and tidied it up neatly. With him helping to collect firewood, Liu Siniang was no longer so tired.

At first, she was reluctant to spend money, but her children persuaded her, saying that making money is to make her life comfortable. If she makes money but is reluctant to spend it and becomes ill, then what is the point of making money?

Liu Siniang thinks it’s right, isn’t making money just to live a good life?

If in order to make money you only suffer hardships but no happiness, then what are you doing to make money?

Spend money, spend money, and make cotton-padded jackets, trousers and quilts for the children first, so as to save them from shivering in the winter.

During this time, Lin Xiangxiang’s dried sweet potatoes were finally dried.

After experiencing a semi-failure the first time, I steamed it three times and dried it three times for the second time, and finally it was edible.

The whole family gathers together to eat dried sweet potatoes in the evening.

"This dried sweet potato is very sticky and sweet. Children and women should like to eat it." Lin Ping'an said vaguely while chewing on the dried sweet potato.

He also likes it, but he is a man and is not that interested in sweets, so he just thinks it tastes delicious.

But Liu Siniang liked it very much, and so did Lin Sihai and others.

"If you sell this, it will definitely sell well."

For children at home, one stick will last them a long time, and it is sweet. Children love all kinds of sweets.

This is different from ordinary sweet potatoes. It doesn't become a sticky mass in your hand. You can't stop eating it as a snack.

Moreover, dried sweet potatoes can be stored for a long time and can be kept as a snack at home and eaten anytime.

In addition to making dried tofu, my family also started making dried sweet potatoes.

Not all sweet potatoes can be used to make this kind of dried sweet potatoes, and you have to choose among the sweet potatoes you buy.

Their family bought so many sweet potatoes that the whole village simply didn’t have enough sweet potatoes, so they started buying them from other villages.

The villagers' relatives are basically from nearby people, and they grow similar crops.

Lin Ping'an's family said they could collect sweet potatoes from their relatives, so they rushed to tell each other.

Some relatives grew more sweet potatoes than they could eat at home. They wanted to sell them in the county but couldn't get a high price. They were worried about whether the sweet potatoes would rot at home. At this time, people from Wangniu Village came and told them that they quickly packed up the things. Pack up and come over.

I heard that Lin Ping'an had made a fortune in business, so he bought a lot of sweet potatoes and came home.

The prices given are very fair, similar to those in the county, and they don’t have to travel so far, which is a good thing for them.

Everyone swarmed over, dragging the sweet potatoes, and when they saw other people coming, they all left quickly, fearing that the Lin family would not want them after they had harvested enough sweet potatoes.

When they arrived at Lin Ping'an's house, it was Liu Siniang who took care of the house with her children. Lin Sanchuan invited everyone in, weighed themselves in the front yard, and figured out the weight. A little doll carved in pink and jade next to them counted the money for them.

This child is holding a big jar, which contains strings of money. She does calculations very quickly, not missing a single copper, and she can count money faster than many adults.

Everyone was surprised and thought that the two children of the Lin family were really interesting, especially the little girl. She was able to calculate accounts at such a young age, and she was able to calculate such complicated accounts.

Someone wanted to test her and said deliberately: "Child, my sweet potatoes are 523 kilograms per car and 471 kilograms per car. How much are they in total?"

Sweet potatoes cost one penny per pound, so there is no need to calculate other accounts, just add the pounds together.

This account is not difficult for adults, but it is not easy for a five-year-old child.

Lin Xiangxiang looked up and smiled.

"Uncle, you miscounted. There are six bags of sweet potatoes in your cart, which are ninety-two catties, seventy-eight catties, eighty-three catties, eighty-five catties, eighty-nine catties, and ninety catties. The total is five hundred and seventeen kilograms, not four hundred and seventy-one kilograms."

After finishing speaking, he counted out the money again: "Including the cart of 523 kilograms, the total is 1,040 yuan. Here is the money. Please take it."

The man was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that he could add it to his miscalculation without lying at all.

At this moment, he felt that the child was a bit stupid, so he did the calculation again and found that he was really wrong.

But then, when he looked at Lin Xiangxiang's sincere eyes, he suddenly felt that what he was thinking was too dirty.

Hey, what are you stupid about? Isn’t it just the ability of a child to make a big business?

He was just stupid.

See if a child can calculate accounts accurately and be a childlike child. Everyone will be willing to come here to sell sweet potatoes and eat at his stall.

This is really smart people.
