daily struggle in ancient times
Chapter 42
Just after the Lantern Festival, Huo Chengcheng took Xing Li and Gu Hongzhi on their way to Qingyuan County in the early morning of the second day.
Wei Yun originally wanted to get up early to see him off, but the two of them messed around until midnight last night, Huo Cheng was full of energy, but he passed out from exhaustion.Huo Cheng felt sorry for him, and he was not willing to wake him up after all.
Aunt Huo originally wanted to say a few words, but seeing Wei Yun's exhausted look and the marks on his neck that couldn't be covered by the collar, she didn't say anything.She is not a little girl who doesn't care about people, and she still knows about this kind of thing. With Huo Cheng's physique, Wei Yun is also working hard.
If Huo Cheng wasn't sent off, Wei Yun was completely lost. He was so distracted all day long that he couldn't keep his spirits up when he did anything.
Although they haven't been married for a long time, Wei Yun has already gotten used to the feeling of being with Huo Cheng. The two of them spend most of their time together, and Huo Cheng dotes on him very much. Once he is alone, he feels uncomfortable. Nothing is right.
But Huo Cheng has ideas, vision, and courage, which is different from those people in the village who guard the land and settle for the status quo.I'm afraid there will be many days like this in the future, he has to get used to it as soon as possible.
For this reason, Wei Yun thought about his previous thoughts again.
He had discussed with Huo Cheng that the people in the village were no richer than those in the city, and they were more willing to keep a few pennies in their hands, and it seemed to be terribly difficult to spend them.
That being the case, Wei Yun thought about exchanging things for things, and he was unwilling to pay money, but rich people were still willing to give food to children in exchange for a few mouthfuls of food.
Expensive things are not easy to exchange, but there is still a market for evaluation houses such as chestnut cakes and hair cakes.
A catty of wheat costs twelve cents, and Wei Yun plans to lower the profit a little bit. One catty of wheat is exchanged for four pieces of hair cake or two pieces of chestnut cake. As for the red bean cake, Wei Yun does not want to add it for the time being.
This thing is like bacon. Northerners don't like rice, so it's easy to accept pasta such as chestnut cakes and hair cakes.However, the sticky and soft taste of hair cake varies from person to person. Therefore, red bean cake is far less popular than the above two.
Moreover, although the size of a piece of red bean cake is about the same as that of chestnut cake, its thickness is less than half that of the latter, and the actual price is much higher, so Wei Yun plans to put it aside again.
But before that, Wei Yun planned to send the things promised to the young master.
Han Pingji didn't lack anything, and Wei Yun couldn't come up with anything too novel. It happened that Young Master Han liked to eat, so he could only put more effort into it.
Aunt Huo's steamed stir-fry is a must, so Wei Yun specially asked Aunt Huo to make more.
To make this thing, you need to boil the meat first. The broth is made by Wei Yun with the big bones and the best five flowers and slow fire. After adding spices to taste, it becomes the best assistant for making stir-fry.
The vermicelli dried by the farmhouse is firm and smooth. After cooking, it is mixed with dried sweet potato powder and broth. The pork belly and deboned meat that have fully absorbed the delicious broth are also chopped and added, and then added with onion, ginger, garlic and other spices. Mix it into a dry and wet raw stir-fry, put it on the pan and steam it until it is cooked, and the stir-fry is completely finished.
It requires a lot of things to make, and it is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Generally, the big guys basically don't make it except during the Chinese New Year.
Young Master Han is the young master of a wealthy family. Aunt Huo also hoped that the Han family would be able to support her family in the future. When she heard that it was for the Young Master, she naturally agreed and picked the best ingredients to make two big pots with all her heart. come out.
The finished stir-fry was dark brown and exuded a strong fragrance, which made the two children salivate.Wei Yun’s stir-fried dumplings are mediocre. Brother Wei has never eaten such delicious stir-fried dumplings before. The first time he ate it, he was amazed. The stir-fried dumplings have also become one of his favorite foods.
Although Aunt Huo also steamed a lot during the Chinese New Year, there is no one in the family who does not like to eat.
Especially at night, the whole family gathers around the small iron pot on the stove. After the pork belly is exuded by the heat, add seasonings and sauces, put thinly sliced stir-fried piles, stew slowly over low heat, and the meat and stir-fry The flavors of the duo permeate each other and achieve each other. The taste is so wonderful that people want to eat it after eating it.
In addition, stir-fry and all other meat and vegetables can be mixed, which will not take away the original flavor of other foods, but also enhance the flavor of the whole pot.
Therefore, within less than five days, the stir-fry was completely wiped out by the family. Although the two children were reluctant to give up, they also knew that this kind of thing would not be done normally, and it gradually faded away after thinking about it for a few days.
But today, Aunt Huo steamed two large pots again, and the whole yard was filled with the salty and delicious smell of stir-frying, and the greed that the two children had suppressed for a long time was completely drawn out.
Wei Yun was amused by the two of them salivating. After entrusting the brothers of the Hu family to deliver the food for the young master, they steamed a lot with Aunt Huo overnight, and gave the two children a delicious meal in the evening. Stir-fried pork belly in a pot.
Wei Yun has not been making cakes for a day or two, and people in the village have heard about it for a long time, but the cakes are a bit expensive, and no one is willing to buy them.
Now that Wei Yun has released the news that he can exchange wheat, many people are ready to move.
Wei Yun didn't wait long before welcoming the first customer of the day, who was the one who said he wanted to buy red bean cake during the Chinese New Year.
As soon as he heard that the cakes made by Wei Yun could be exchanged for wheat, Da Nuo immediately went home to discuss with his mother. Da Nuo's father is a well-known chef in all villages and towns, and every family in the nearby villages would come to him for weddings and funerals.
In addition to the ingredients left over from making the table, the host family will also pay a lot of money, so although their family is prosperous, they are not as busy as other families. no.
Wei Yun's cakes are naturally affordable for his family, but there are many children in the family, and the brothers have not yet separated. Although [-]% of the money earned falls into his own hands, but the whole family lives, your family It is inappropriate for my children to eat cakes and my children to eat noodles.
But if Da Nuo Niang buys one for each of her nephews, she is absolutely unwilling.
Her man's skill was also learned by himself after asking the master for many years, and the family didn't contribute much.Originally, it would be a disadvantage to hand over the money to Gongzhong Wucheng, but if you buy cakes for several nephews, you will be completely taken advantage of!
She won't do it!
Therefore, no matter how much trouble Da Nuo made, she would not let go.
The old couple in the family knew it well, but it was hard to say anything. The big naughty mother is not easy to get along with, otherwise she wouldn't be able to have private money in a fair manner, and the money earned by the other houses would have to be paid.
Although everyone will secretly hide a little bit, but to put it bluntly, wouldn't the big naughty girl not?After all, no one would ask the owner to verify how much money was given, and it was all the mouth of the big coward.
The old couple was reluctant to spend the tens of renminbi to buy cakes for the children, but they were willing to exchange a few catties of wheat for one piece each.So when there was a big fuss, the old couple hurriedly agreed.
This is the scene where the two of them come to Wei's house to exchange cakes.
This can be regarded as the first business deal, Wei Yun still attaches great importance to it, and picked up six pieces of hair cakes according to the wishes of the big naughty girl, and added some cut corners to add to the hair.
While waiting for Wei Yun to weigh the wheat, Da Nuo Niang looked around and asked Wei Yun in a low voice: "Da Chengjia, do you have your chestnut cake and red bean cake? How do you sell them?"
Wei Yun nodded, put down just enough wheat, and opened the other two baskets on the table. The oily and crispy chestnut cakes and the white and soft red bean cakes were neatly stacked in the baskets.
"Chestnut cake costs six yuan, and red bean cake costs five yuan."
Da Nuo Niang couldn't help clicking her tongue. Although the price is a little lower than that in the town, it's not cheap, and it's almost as good as dim sum shops.
After all, she still loves the child. After so many days of trouble, she had no choice but to buy two chestnut cakes and two red bean cakes, one for the child and one for her own man.
The couple obviously earn the most, and they also have some money in their hands, so that their son can eat better, but now they even have to sneak around to eat an extra egg.
Da Nu took the red bean cake and couldn't wait to eat it. A small piece of cake was eaten up in a few bites.Although Da Nuo Niang felt distressed, she looked at her son's gluttony and bought two more yuan.
Wearing thick clothes in winter, she put the chestnut cake and red bean cake in her arms together with the paper bag, and she couldn't see anything from the outside, so she led Da Nao away.
It was like a signal that the two of them came to exchange cakes. People came to the door one after another, and Wei Yun exchanged five deals in one morning.
Although the red bean cake was never sold again, it was the least made, and the remaining five or six yuan could be completely consumed by the family.
Compared with the daily sales volume of the brothers of the Hu family, these five transactions are naturally nothing, but it also proves that this idea can be realized and not illusory.
The cakes made by Wei Yun taste good and use a lot of ingredients, and soon gained a firm foothold in the village and the surrounding villages, and can do eight or nine transactions every day without talking.
In addition to wheat, Wei Yun also collected some mountain products, such as mushrooms and chestnuts, and even a lot of jujubes.
Most of these things are used every day. Although the Huo family has a little hoard, they are almost used up.It takes money to go to the city or talk to the villagers, but if you change it, not only does it not cost money, but it is also cheaper than buying it directly.
Wei Yun's small business was in full swing in the village, and Huo Cheng and the others also arrived in Qingyuan County after traveling for seven or eight days.
In the past few days, many things brought out from home have been sold in the villages along the way one after another, but a lot of other miscellaneous things have also been added.
This kid Huo Cheng is very clever. When he encounters things that are cheaper than Ping County on the road, he will buy some. When he arrives at the next place, he will sell all the things that can be more expensive than the original price. Some places price things lower.
He buys and sells like this, so the journey will not be too fast, but the big guy is willing.
Although they can't make a lot of money in this way, they still keep making small money. On average, each person earns more than a dozen cash a day, and everyone is very happy.
Huo Dayong and the others finally understood why Huo Cheng said he wanted more.
Although the road to Ping County was relatively peaceful, there would always be some concerns about their frequent transactions.
But there were four of them in a group, all strong laborers, and one of them was fierce enough to stop a child from crying. After teaching a few little thieves a lesson, all the way was peaceful.
The city walls of Qingyuan County were clearly visible, and the eyes of several people couldn't help but shine.
Running a business is really tough. These old men are indeed a little tired. Now that they have reached their destination, they are not unhappy.
With Huo Cheng's performance at the bottom of the road, the few people who were still suspicious about this business now only have expectations.
Even if the bacon business can't be done, there are always other businesses to be found. This time, I can't lose money!
