He was betrayed at the beginning, from a cake seller to a wealthy person

Lu Yan and Lu Sheng also drove away happily in a donkey cart.

This banquet was really well done. Mr. Song, the old man from the shopping mall, could tell by looking at the expressions of the four of them that the matter was probably done. The matter that had been bothering him for a long time was solved. He was really overjoyed and gave it to the two of them. He received generous gifts, gave him a red seal, and also gave Lu Sheng several sets of the Four Treasures of the Study.

The two opened the red seal in the car and found a fifty-tael silver note inside.

Fifty taels! This is fifty taels!

Lu Sheng and Lu Yan fell into great ecstasy.

"Great, great, my plan to open a shop can be advanced." Lu Yan muttered.

"You want to open a shop?" Lu Sheng asked, "Where? In the town?"

"Yes." Lu Yan nodded.

"I suggest you don't." Lu Sheng said.

Lu Yan frowned: "Why?"

"I'm going to end up taking the county exam in February, the government exam in April, and the college exam in August." Lu Sheng said slowly, "Aren't you going to follow me? I'm admitted to the county school, why don't you come with me? Going to the county seat?”

Lu Yan's eyes narrowed, yes, she didn't expect this. If Lu Sheng really succeeds, she will definitely follow him to the county seat. It has been less than a year now, and it is really not worth renting a shop for her.

But if you just sell lotus leaf buns with everything, the money you make is really not much. Lu Yan doesn't plan to touch the fifty taels of silver, and plans to use it as her own reserve. When the time comes, we will go to the county town together. Not only will we need money to open a shop, we will also need to find a place to live, and we will also need Shu Xiu to go to school in the county.

With the current income of five or six taels a month, it is still a bit nervous to support Lu Sheng in his studies. Today's county schools are different from the compulsory education of later generations. They also require education, which is almost twenty taels a year. It turned out that Lu Sheng had planned to study on his own after passing the exam and not go to the county school. Lu Yan was firmly opposed and had to go to school.

But I can’t think of anything to add. She has a good business selling lotus leaf cakes, and no one has copied hers. Theoretically, this is unreasonable. In fact, she knows it because her freshest food is stewed rice, but the starch is unique to her. Without starch, even if someone Even if you want to learn how to beat them to death, you can't figure out how to do it. I can't make stews or stew meat with this kind of flavor. I can only make vegetarian pancakes. It's uncompetitive, so I might as well not put in the effort.

So even though this doesn’t seem complicated, it’s still very difficult. If it's something else where you can tell how it's done at a glance, a group of imitators will probably appear within a few days.

Moreover, Lu Yan has always been itching to make pancakes, fruits, egg-filled pancakes and so on, but those things have to be made freshly, which is impossible without a store. It is not impossible for her to make a charcoal stove every day, but it is too troublesome.

Lu Yan was deep in thought all the way, her thoughts drifting to nowhere. Lu Sheng ignored her and drove the donkey cart forward. Now they had reached the entrance of the village.

There was another group of people sitting at the entrance of the village. When they saw Lu Sheng and Lu Yan driving back, they started to murmur again.

"This girl bought by Brother Sheng's father seems to be a bit powerful. Last time I went to his house to ask Brother Sheng's mother to make needlework. She said she was setting up a stall in the town to sell food."

"I see that she leaves early and comes back early every day. How much money can she make just by staying there for less than two hours?"

"Who knew that she would buy big and small bags at home every day if she couldn't make money?"

"Don't tell me, Brother Sheng seems to have gained some weight recently and is not as skinny as before."

"It really is."

Everyone was talking aimlessly, chatting without knowing where they went, but the village chief's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Sun, really took it to heart after hearing this.

These words had no impact on Lu Yan and Lu Sheng at all. The two of them got fifty taels of silver today and were very happy. Lu Yan decided to have a nice meal to celebrate in the evening.

When Lu Yan went back, she caught a chicken and slaughtered it. She killed the chicken neatly, plucked the feathers, opened the chicken and marinated it. She turned to Lu Sheng and asked Lu Sheng where they could buy wine.

Eating fried chicken without drinking beer is really something missing.

Lu Sheng said that there was a brewer in the village, so the two simply walked there.

There were not many types of wine in the wine shop, and the current sorghum wine had a very low alcohol content. Lu Yan picked a few and moved back a jar of wine with about ten degrees of alcohol content. She also bought a jar of rice wine for pickling things to remove the fishy smell.

When the chicken was almost marinated, Lu Yan took it apart into several parts. The chicken rack, chicken legs and wings were ready to be fried directly. The chicken breast was cut into small cubes to make chicken popcorn. The chicken head, neck, chicken feet, chicken heart and gizzards were marinated directly. , the bits and pieces in the belly were taken out and prepared for catching fish.

The most important thing about fried chicken is coating it with flour. There is no scaling powder, so you have to rub it yourself if you want to get the scales. After mixing the flour and starch, add some water, rub out the scales, coat the marinated things in starch, then coat them in the rubbed flour, fry them twice, until they become golden and crispy, and the kids next door will be greedy for them. Cried.

fried chicken

When Boss Lu came home, dinner was ready. Lu Yan made a whole chicken feast at home, including braised chicken feet, fried chicken racks, fried chicken popcorn, fried chicken legs, fried chicken wings, and a jar of very low-alcohol wine.

Lu Yan took a piece of chicken popcorn and threw it into her mouth. The familiar deep-fried texture made her cry. Lu Sheng liked the fried chicken rack the most. Although there wasn't much meat, the fried chicken rack was sweet and salty. It was the first time for Lu Sheng to taste such a strange taste, and he couldn't stop eating it.

Two fried chicken legs were given to Boss Lu and Mrs. Xu. While eating, Mrs. Xu sighed that she had gained weight after eating so much that she couldn't move.

"It's good to be fatter. My goal is to make you all fat." Lu Yan said happily, "Look at Lu Sheng, Lu Sheng is also fat."

Lu Sheng has indeed put on a few kilograms of meat and is no longer as skinny as before. However, what Lu Yan wants most is to make Lu Sheng grow taller. The time is still short and it is difficult to tell.

Lu Sheng and Lu Yan started to discuss business matters again while eating.

"That's pretty much the number of people buying your food. If you add more varieties, you may not be able to attract more." Lu Sheng analyzed while eating a chicken rack, "I think we have to start somewhere else."

Lu Yan: "Plus selling twilight food?"

Lu Sheng nodded: "You can also make snacks. Your chicken rack is very good. I think it's okay."

Lu Yan: "..."

She knew that Lu Sheng would start wondering if he could sell something just after eating it.

However, she does plan to open a dusk food stall, and is still considering what she will sell.
