Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

Chapter 936 Harvesting Dried Vegetables

Cuifen opened her hand and took Geng Ming from Mother Lin's arms.

Looking at her son sleeping soundly, Cuifen said with red eyes: "Gengming, you play with Grandma Lin and your brothers and sisters for a few more days. When you return to Beijing, your parents will take you home."

Hearing his mother's voice, Geng Ming opened his hazy sleepy eyes, put two lotus-jointed arms around Cuifen's neck, and said in a sweet voice: "Mom and dad, have a good trip, Geng Ming will Be obedient and don't cause trouble to Grandma Lin and Aunt Wanning."

Cuifen put a link on Gengming's forehead, took her luggage, and left with three steps.

Director Sun's car was waiting at the intersection, and he took Cuifen and Gengming straight to the train station.

In the blink of an eye, it’s the fifth day of the first lunar month.

This day is the day when the Lin family worships their ancestors.

"Aning, you are in a special situation this year, so don't go up the mountain. Lin Anquanquan and I will take the children to worship."

"Mom, wouldn't it be inappropriate if I didn't go?"

"What's inappropriate? No matter how important it is to worship the ancestors, it's not as important as the living people. Besides, it's not just for this year. You can go again next year and the year after that. Listen to mom and don't be stubborn."

It is an established rule in China that you cannot worship your ancestors when you are pregnant.

Some people believe that pregnant women will offend their ancestors and ruin their home's feng shui.

But Lin's mother was worried that she would treat Xu Wanning badly when she went to worship.

This love came from the heart, and Xu Wanning had to accept it.

While Mother Lin was taking Lin An and Lin Quan to the back mountain to worship, Xu Wanning called her brothers over, "I'm going to the village later to collect some dried beans, dried potato clips and the like from the villagers. You guys Come with me, otherwise there are too many things for me to carry alone."

"It's okay to be with you, but Aning, what do you want those things for?"

"Of course I did! Although you are tired of eating pork stewed with vermicelli and boiled vegetables during this period, there is something special about dry beans and dried potatoes mixed with sun-dried vegetables and boiled in a hot pot. By then Just divide it into two parts, send one to the restaurant, and keep the rest for our No. 2 store, which is also a special feature of Tonggushabu."

Xu Wanning went directly to the captain and asked him to pass the message to her.

"You want dried beans? I have a lot of them at home. I'll ask your aunt to fill two bags for you later, and you can just eat them."

After thanking the captain for his kindness, Xu Wanning explained: "Captain, you know that I opened a restaurant in Beijing. People in Beijing have eaten dried vegetables from our province, so I want to buy more and take them with me. Beijing City, firstly, it can enrich the menu of my restaurant, and secondly, it also allows one of the characteristics of our Black Province to go out and let more people know about our Black Province."

Hearing this, the team leader hurriedly said: "If that's the case, then I'll shout with the loudspeaker and ask everyone who has dried vegetables to bring their own dried vegetables to gather at the brigade headquarters. By the way, Wan Ning, what kind of dried vegetables do you want?"

"How many kinds of dried vegetables are there in total?"

“The most common ones are dried beans and dried potatoes. In addition, there are also dried eggplants, dried radishes, dried bamboo shoots, dried plums, dried cucumbers, dried sweet potatoes, dried potherbs, and dried shiitake mushrooms. These are almost all in our village. It’s in every household.”

"Are there even dried pickles?"

Aren’t the ingredients for braised pork with pickled vegetables already here?

Although she can also make dried pickles, it takes too much energy, so she has never done it.

But since the folks had it ready-made, she collected a little more and went back to teach the chefs how to make braised pork with pickled vegetables, which is another major feature of the restaurant.

"Let's see, dried plums and dried plums are relatively difficult to make, so I charge them at one cent or two kilograms, followed by dried mushrooms, dried bamboo shoots and dried eggplants, which cost one cent or three kilograms. As for dried Beans, dried potato slices, dried radishes, cucumbers, and sweet potatoes are all priced at one cent and five pounds. Captain, what do you think of this price?"

how about it?

Of course it’s great!

Shiitake mushrooms can be picked in the mountains, or if not, you can grow them yourself. However, because mushrooms can taste like meat and absorb moisture easily, the price is definitely higher than that of cucumbers.

As for sweet potatoes, as long as you are not a lazy person, just growing them on your own land can be enough for the whole family to eat and there will still be leftovers. It only takes a little work, but Xu Wanning can make money by selling it. This is simply a great thing.

Therefore, after the brigade captain spread the news to the villagers through the loudspeaker, within a short time, people carrying large sacks arrived at the brigade department door.

"You go in line behind me, I got here first!"

"I was obviously the one who came first. Didn't you see that my pockets are all in front of you? You were obviously the one who jumped in line!"

"Hey, what are you going to sell?"

"Of course it's dried pickles, dried shiitake mushrooms, and these are the three most valuable!"

Xu Wanning looked at the noisy crowd and felt her head hurt.

When the captain saw this, he scolded: "Please be quiet! Anyone who chatters again will take back all their belongings, not a single thing!"

After all, money is very powerful. After the captain roared, the scene suddenly became quiet.

Xu Wanning asked her brothers and sisters-in-law to stand in a row.

Everyone is also holding a wooden board with the name of a dry dish written in pencil on it.

"Did you see the boards they were holding? If you want to sell anything, just queue up in front."

"What is written here? I can't understand a word of it."

"There are four words written on this wooden board. It should be Xuelihonggan, right? But my family doesn't have Xuelihonggan. Oh, what a pity!"

Only then did Xu Wanning realize belatedly that most people in the village were illiterate, and she still took it for granted.

"You follow my orders and line up!"

The captain stood up and pointed at Xu Wanning who was sitting on the stool first, "What Wanning sells here is dried pickles. If you want to sell dried pickles, come here and line up. Here are dried xuelihong, dried shiitake mushrooms... "

With the captain guiding the way, the team gradually separated.

But some people encountered a little trouble.

"Captain, I brought several kinds of dried vegetables, how should I line up?"

"You don't have to queue up, just let your sacks queue up! Whatever is in the sacks, just queue up in that queue!"

"Captain, how many kilograms of dried vegetables does Wan Ning collect? The queue for dried beans is so long, will they stop collecting them when they reach our place?"

Xu Wanning replied: "No, I will collect as much as you have. If you still have dried vegetables at home, you can put the sacks here and line up, and go home to get them quickly. I want them all."

All these three words are the most beautiful words to the villagers of Dajiang Village today.
