With so many fish, only the few people in the village can buy them, and they can't sell them all.
Li Qingshan simply said: "After lunch, we will continue to work on the road. I will drive the mule cart to the county town to sell. You go and come with me."
Li Qingshan picked two from the large pile of alive and kicking fish The heavy crucian carp, smiled and said: "If you sell the money, you will share. I will take these two fish home and make soup." These
fish must be less than a hundred catties. If they are sold, they will be more than two worthless crucian carp thing.
The other six people all said no when they heard the words.
"Why are you polite?" Li Qingshan was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something and turned back, "By the way, by the way, I would like to ask if the people in your area sell mountain buffaloes. If you want to sell them, we can sell them together. It's gone."
Early on, Liu Yu helped Uncle Li and Yang Qiuqin sell wild vegetables at the stall, and other people in the village gradually knew about it.
Some quick-witted people came to the door and asked if they could sell eggs, duck eggs or side dishes for them, and any money would do.
Cong Chunhua wanted to agree, but was stopped by Liu Yu.
It's not that I find it troublesome, nor that I don't want to help. But once you open your mouth, it's okay for someone like Yang Qiuqin who is right-minded and thinks about others, but if you meet a person who is not right-minded, you will weigh the things he gave you, and you will pay according to the price he set, but in the end Because you always have to give some profits to customers when doing business, and the total amount sold is only a few pennies away from what he calculated, so he may think that you secretly paid the money.
Obviously helping the other party with good intentions without saying thank you, and making myself feel ashamed for nothing. Therefore, Liuyu rejected such a request from the very beginning.
However, the mountain and water buffalo Li Qingshan mentioned this time does not matter, it is directly sold to the county pharmacy, and the price is dead and alive, there is no such thing as bargaining for less money, so that you can do good things with peace of mind.
People in the village who got the letter all brought the wild cattle they caught in the mountains early in the morning to Li Qingshan's house.
The mountain water buffalo is also called the big-tooth beetle. There are always many on the mountain after the summer rain. Its lifespan is only one day. It can be fried and eaten, and it can also be used as a medicinal material for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.
Regardless of its small size, it hurts to bite people with big teeth. It is called a longhorn because it can fly.
So many mountain and water buffaloes were sent to my yard, it would be bad for one of them to fly out a few startled willows, Li Qingshan will wait at the entrance of the village on the sidewalk, and there will be many people, so it can be regarded as a witness .
Liu Yu couldn't help laughing as he saw that he had just dealt with one after another.
This man is soft-hearted.
Cong Chunhua and Mrs. Guan also picked up a lot of good things on the mountain, including ground vegetables and various kinds of mushrooms that they often eat here, and the fragrant nests with strong fragrance are the most.
For lunch, I ate hand-rolled noodles, and the soup below was stewed with fragrant nests, which was very rich.
The toppings on the noodles are sautéed wok'er minced sauce, which is spicy and enjoyable, with a strong mushroom fragrance, making it a perfect accompaniment to rice.
"When the pig is slaughtered tomorrow, cut some pork belly and mince it to make sauce with Xiangwoer, it will be more delicious!" After
Cong Chunhua finished speaking, she said to Li Qingshan: "Your grandma and I haven't found hazel mushrooms yet, you can go later When I was in the county town, I went to the dry goods store to see if there was anything for sale, and I had to look out for it when I bought it, so as not to mold or get bitten by insects." "I still have to buy the ones that smell good!" Making chicken stewed mushrooms is a
must
. She walked halfway yesterday and talked about it when it rained, and she wanted to go up the mountain to try her luck to see if she could find Hazel mushroom. Sure enough, things that haven't arrived at that time will not be easily found even if they exist.
Li Qingshan took it easy to remember that after eating, he drove the mule cart to the entrance of the village. Daniu Erniu and others were already waiting at the entrance of the village.
Li Qingshan took a closer look, didn't they use all the bathtubs at home?
"Brother, I don't have many other things. After thinking about it, Xiao Wuyi and I decided to use this thing!" There is a
fishing net tied on the top of the bathtub, and he is not afraid that the fish will jump out. Li Qingshan patted the heavy bathtub. Tong Tong said: "Okay! Not bad!"
The villagers who were waiting here early for fear of missing the time also swarmed up, Li Qingshan took out the cage with a cover brought from home, and called two regular sellers from the crowd. People who can calculate things count together with him, and write down the amount of each household.
Because there were too many people to sell, Li Qingshan picked a man with the surname of Wu to join them, both surnames, so it would be more appropriate.
Shanshui buffaloes are sold to the drugstore in the county for a penny each, and it will be better to distribute them directly to the villagers according to the number.
The one hundred catty fish was sold for more than 700 Wen, Li Qingshan didn't want this money, the other six men could each share more than 100 Wen.
The man surnamed Wu who went with him was so greedy that his eyes were red, his mother used to say that Li Qingshan's life was bad, and she didn't ask him to play with Li Qingshan. Just ask, who else in the village can compare to Li Qingshan?
If you don't play with him, can you get this money if you don't play with him?
The man surnamed Wu started to make friends with Li Qingshan all the way, asking how much Li Qingshan earns in January now.
In short, it's very senseless.
Li Qingshan winked at Erniu, who was a chatterbox, and Erniu put his arms around the man surnamed Wu, and pulled him aside to chat about "life".
However, the news spread quickly, and in the evening, many people in the village knew about the men who went fishing with Li Qingshan, and they made more than a hundred coins in one go.
"This family is really a fortune!"
"Where is the brother Yu who is married? Could it be a koi!"
Anyway, many people in the village have made up their minds to make friends with Li Qingshan's family.
Daniu's husband also went back to Lianian's house to pick some cherries and sent them over. "It's a little sour, but I still feel good after eating it. It's sweet and sour, and it's okay!" Liu Yu thanked
.
Da Niu Fulang said again: "It's really thanks to Brother Qingshan, otherwise he would never even think about earning more than a hundred coins in his life!" "Where is it?" Liu Yu said: "
This fish was originally We all caught it together, that's what Brother Big Niu deserves."
"Hey! Your family just likes to do good deeds without leaving a name? If Brother Qingshan chose the right place and helped drive the mule cart to send the fish to the county. That fish died a long time ago, so why sell it for any money!"
Now, no one in the village knows that Mrs. Shun tells everyone that Liu Yu is the best little brother he has ever met.
There must be something going on here, but outsiders don't know that's all.
Liuyu smiled, and cut a large piece of jelly for Da Niu Fulang, "It's newly made at noon, you can mix it at home.
" Yue bought it from Liuyu, so he knew the price. It was because he thanked others for sending things to their door, so how could it be easy to take their things in the end.
Da Niu Fulang refused, but was forced by Cong Chunhua, "If you want to ask your aunt to deliver it to your home later, just take it to me honestly!"
Da Niu Fulang refused but finally accepted it, thinking Then he has to go back to his mother's house to talk about it, and bring more jelly noodle business to Li Qingshan's house.
After the big cowboy left, Liuyu scooped up water to wash the cherries.
When I ate the first one, my teeth were really sore, but I didn't feel so bad after eating the second one, and I could taste a little sweetness.
Liu Yu put the washed cherries into a small basket that could be drained, and took them to the kitchen for Old Madam Guan and Cong Chunhua to eat.
The two of them refused to eat the second one after eating the first one, because their teeth felt sore.
Willow fish suspiciously fed it to Li Qingshan who came back from the mountain to collect firewood. Li Qingshan grinned sourly the moment Li Qingshan bit it open.
In the evening, I made stewed chicken with mushrooms. I used hazel mushrooms that Li Qingshan bought from the county. Although the dried hazel mushrooms are not good-looking, they are more fragrant. After soaking and stewing with chicken, it is a masterpiece.
The chicken is soft and rotten, the soup is rich, and the special fragrance of hazel mushrooms is incomparable to all mushrooms. I was afraid that it would not be enough to eat, so I added some jelly and the thin egg skin of Congchunhua. These side dishes are enough to absorb. Soup, the taste is not lost to chicken.
Liu Yu ate two and a half large steamed buns in one meal, and when night fell, Li Qingshan helped him to take a leisurely walk in the yard to digest food.
Then the weather got better again, even hotter than before it rained.
The shop also began to sell jelly and salted duck eggs. The salted duck eggs were bought more at one time from the peddler, which was about three renminbi each. Everyone agreed, and gradually they sold, and at least a dozen of them were sold a day.
As for jelly, a catty of peas is ground to make more than three liang of powder, and ten times the amount of water is added to make jelly that is more than three catties. The unmixed ones are only sold for two pennies a catty, and those that need to be mixed are only an extra penny.
Because it is too cheap, there are still a lot of people who are willing to try something new on the first day.
This business is simply huge profits!
The hotter it will be in the future, especially after the fall, the more it should be sold. Cong Chunhua seems to have seen a lot of money coming to her.
It was only the first day that the business of selling jelly in the shop was so good, and Liu Yu couldn't help being unhappy. After being happy, he thought of a very important question, "Can the mother and eldest sister be busy?" At first, only braised pork was sold
. And marinated green beans, these two things were prepared in the morning, and then I watched the shop sell them. Speaking of which, the cold pork head meat was a bit busy at the time.
But although it is not difficult to make jelly now, eight out of ten people who buy jelly want cold salad, and there are so many people who buy jelly. If it is just the two of them, they must be very busy.
"Indeed." Li Qingshan gulped down the lukewarm water brought by the willow fish in one gulp, then wiped his mouth and said, "After I sold the meat, I was busy just peeling and patting garlic for quite a while."
Originally prepared for the whole day, it was sold out at noon.
The business was so good that Cong Chunhua was reluctant to come back, and said that she would make some more in the afternoon and save them for sale in the evening.
Li Qingshan had to take care of the pigs and was afraid that Liuyu would be worried, so he came back first.
The old lady Guan at the side just wanted to say that she would go to the shop to help, but then she remembered that she had to teach three girls how to embroider in the morning, so she couldn't leave at all.
But even if she could go away, Li Qingshan would not let her go, because she had been ill a year ago when she was old, and running back and forth in the hot summer would inevitably be tiring, and it would be bad if she got sick again. Secondly, Liu Yu is pregnant, even if it is convenient to move now, there is no discomfort, just asking him to be alone at home, Li Qingshan is not at ease.
Similarly, Li Qingshan also felt sorry for his mother, so he had already thought of a countermeasure, "During the wheat harvest period, I plan to hire someone from the county to work in the shop, and I will only work in the two hours of noon and Shenshi."
After the wheat was harvested and the millet was planted, he had to be free, so he stayed in the shop to help out.
"Well, that's good." Seeing that Li Qingshan had finished washing his face, Liu Yu handed over the cloth to wipe his face, thought for a while and said: "Now there are more things to do than before, so I will add more to the monthly money for eldest sister." "
Yeah " Li Qingshan nodded, after washing his face, he felt relieved from the heat, and a smile appeared on his face.
