Chapter 6 Opening

After sending away Widow Zhang, the two men finally started their first day after settling down, which was also the first day of the Song Dynasty.

After tidying up himself, he took out a golden bean from the woman's purse yesterday, and carried a bag of copper coins on his back, and the father and son went out to buy.

The two of them had already discussed what they were doing. The cross talk must not be thrown away. However, the store is not big and there is no way to dine in, let alone open a teahouse. Therefore, the cross talk can be used as a means to attract customers, but it cannot be used as a master. They wanted to run a business, so the two decided to sell ramen noodles.

There are not many noble people in the southern city where they are located, especially along the river. They all rely on the Bianhe River to eat. Haha, they can’t afford a little bit of high-end food, but they can still eat a bowl of white noodles every now and then. my own.

As for the ramen, they didn't dare to say how it tasted. After all, they were not professional cooks, but at least it looked intimidating!
People in the Song Dynasty have never seen noodles flying up and down in the hands of the cook, flying like dragons and phoenixes, and finally throwing out the unique skill of hair thickness. With this skill alone, no one should worry about buying it.

Walking on the street, the father and son were secretly surprised by the depression of Bianjing. Although the most dangerous time had passed yesterday, there were almost no shops open for business on both sides of the street. The doors of every house were closed, and there was almost no one on the road. No, the festive atmosphere of the New Year is gone.

Although the most dangerous day has passed yesterday, it is obvious that the people are still worried. No one knows what these soldiers will do today, and no one is open for business.

There were only three or five beggars on the street, lazily leaning against the wall. It was more like waiting to die than begging. Seeing this, Sun Chunming couldn't help but tighten the sword in his hand, but those beggars didn't seem to be. He didn't mean to grab money. The way he looked at the father and son looked more like they were looking at fools.

Because there are really few open stores, the father and son walked half of the southern city to buy all the things. When people in twos and threes on the road saw the father and son buying so many things in large bags, they all had the same reaction: this People are not stupid.

These days, it's too late to sell things for money, who the hell would buy things at home?How did such a fool survive in this troubled world until now?
The father and son didn't care about those jokes and their voices, who knows who is stupid, usually a big bowl that costs five cents a penny, they can get it done for one penny, and they bought more than 300, and it only cost three hundred coins. I thought I had to spend a golden bean today, but it turned out that I didn't spend any money at all and everything was solved.

When they got home, the father and son saw the scene outside, guessed that there would be no business even if they opened the door, so they simply closed the shop and concentrated on practicing ramen. It is more than one meter long, and this craft may not be able to work in the 21st century, but in the Song Dynasty, it is also a wonder.

In the evening, the father and son ate a lot of ramen and simmered a pot of bone broth, and then went to bed.

Another night of silence.

the next day.It was also the second day after the establishment of the Great Song Dynasty.

For two consecutive days, there was not a single bit of chaos on the streets, and the people couldn't help but start to have hope in their hearts, especially after hearing that none of the nobles in the North City died these two days, and those who should be officials will continue to be officials. , What should be done, continue to do things, it seems that it is no different from before except for a change of emperor.

During the 50 years of troubled times in the Five Dynasties, there were five dynasties and five dynasties, but we have never encountered such a situation. Could it be that Zhao Kuangyin is truly unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness?Could it be that this time, there was really no massacre of the city?

With this in mind, many shops opened their doors today to test the waters, especially those shops serving the nobles in the North City. For two consecutive days, the nobles went to court as usual.

The northern city is so open, what are you afraid of in the southern city?Regardless of who is the emperor, life has to go on as usual. The wives and children are still waiting to eat, so many men have left the house and continued to work, and the order on the street has restored a little.

Oh, I can’t say that everything is as usual, there are still some changes. For example, at the corner of the Bianhe Wharf, the most prosperous Cao’s biscuit shop has changed its shopkeeper unknowingly, so many people come to buy biscuits The old customer shouted disappointment, and took a closer look, isn't this the two father and son who talked about cross talk on the pier before?
I saw that the father directly put the noodle table outside so that everyone could see it. He rubbed a ball of dough in his hands, and it stretched out after a while, and it stretched after a while after flying up and down. The noodles were long and thin, and the two-foot-long thin noodles were closed in the hand, stretched out, and thrown onto the noodle table vigorously, but the noodles did not break, on the contrary, they were stretched even thinner. The sound of gasping for air-conditioning.

Passers-by saw this trick, and all of them stopped and looked at it. Who in the north has never eaten noodles, but they have never heard of this way of eating noodles. What kind of taste does such thin noodles taste in their mouths?

After a while, Sun Chunming stretched out the dough, put it into a large pot in the house and boiled it, then kneaded another dough and continued to stretch it out.

Sun Yue cupped his hands all around and said: "Everyone, there are no sesame cakes today. My father and son bought this store. They have nothing else to do, but this soup cake is a masterpiece. It costs ten yuan a bowl. Guaranteed It’s strong and delicious, but who wants to buy a bowl and try it?”

Everyone looked at each other and said, "It's not cheap to be obedient."

You must know that this is Nancheng, and a bowl of soup cakes usually only costs about two cents. It’s hard, haha. Two cents can fill your stomach. Who would spend ten cents?
Upon hearing the price, most people left.

The father and son are not in a hurry, most of them have left, but there are still some leftovers. Although the ten yuan a bowl of soup cakes is quite expensive, it is by no means unaffordable. There are not too few people who want to try the craft of stretching noodles in the air.

Sun Yue grinned and began to collect the money, and within a short time, more than 100 Wen was collected. It happened that the noodles in the pot were cooked, and they were poured into broth, radishes, green onions, and chopsticks. Serve the noodles to the guests one by one.

People in Nancheng seldom have dine-in places to eat. Kuhaha is not so particular. He squats down with a big bowl and eats. When he eats one by one, all his eyes light up, and they all give thumbs up and praise again and again.

Ramen pays attention to one clear, two white, three red, four green, and five yellow.

But after all, this ramen is something that was only available in the Qing Dynasty more than 1000 years later. I don’t know how much better it is than the soup cakes in the early Song Dynasty. The noodles are perfectly blended, the meat is fragrant but the taste of the noodles is not overwhelming. It is no wonder that you are not surprised when you eat it for the first time.

Just like that, there was a long queue at the door of Sun Yue's small shop in a short while, and Sun Yue collected money softly, and Sun Chunming was sweating profusely in the winter, and couldn't even lift his arms , just opened the drawer and looked at the copper coins lying quietly inside, and they all showed happy smiles again.
