The escape system takes me to dig for treasures

Chapter 317 Should the price increase?

"Let's go back to the pig farm to eat. Let's take a break for a while. I don't worry about Awen and Awu and the two boys up there."

With that said, Zhang Sheng left first.

His wife took the prepared food in the kitchen and greeted Jiang Li's family. The mother and daughter followed Zhang Sheng back to the pig farm.

Homemade bacon is on sale, naturally because my family also likes to eat it, and there is bacon on the Jiang family’s dinner table today.

It was Jiang Chunhua's first time to eat it. When Zhang Sheng's wife was cooking, a scent wafted out. The first dish Jiang Chunhua put on the table was bacon.

"Eh? Why is this dish still a little sweet?"

Today, Zhang Sheng’s wife cooked bacon and stir-fried cabbage. She fried it first and then added the cabbage to cook it. The bacon was a little red in the middle and tasted a little sweet and salty, so it went well with rice.

"Is there sugar in here?"

Jiang Chunhua was surprised.

In this dynasty where there was not enough food to eat and meat was not available, sugar was a very precious thing, and sugar was actually put into the meat.

Thinking of what Zhang Sheng had just said to Jiang Li, no wonder they were selling so well and they were willing to put in the seasoning.

Jiang Chunhua was not surprised that Jiang Chunhua could eat it. She nodded with a smile and asked Jiang Chunhua to take some with her when she went back.

After lunch, Zhang Sheng drove a carriage to pick up Jiang Li not long after. Jiang Songshu, who was almost moldy at home these days, also went with him.

The group of people did not rush to check out the shop, but found a familiar restaurant.

This restaurant also bought bacon from the Jiang family yesterday, and they are quite familiar with Jiang Songshu.

Zhang Sheng parked the carriage and found Jiang Li and Jiang Songshu. Jiang Songshu was already chatting with people in the restaurant in the lobby.

Zhang Sheng approached and listened for a while before realizing that the shopkeeper was not there.

No wonder these guys dared to chat with Jiang Songshu.

The restaurant business seems to be okay today, but it seems like there is some hot topic today, and people at different tables are whispering to each other.

Just as he was thinking about it, the waiter who was talking to Jiang Songshu looked at Zhang Sheng and said, "They are probably talking about the collapse of a dam in the east of Liaocheng. Our shopkeeper is not here today because he rushed home to take a look. ”

Jiang Li and others looked over at once, but they had not heard the news.

The waiter continued: "After the dam collapsed, many villages in the east part of the city were flooded. It collapsed in the middle of the night last night. Many people were asleep. The villages close to the dam probably didn't even react. It was flooded.”

This happened without warning, and the death rate for such a nearby village would be very high if it was flooded.

After hearing the news, everyone's faces suddenly became much heavier.

"So how are you doing at home, the shopkeeper?" Jiang Songshu asked with concern.

The clerk pondered for a moment and said: "Our shopkeeper's house should be some way away from the river, so it shouldn't be serious. However, our shopkeeper is worried and wants to bring all his family members to the city."

Jiang Li and the others had a rough idea, but the other guys didn't know either. They had to go to various shops to have a look, so they didn't stay any longer.

Before leaving, I asked the waiter how many kilograms of bacon he bought at the restaurant yesterday and how the guests reacted after eating it.

Speaking of this, the waiter smiled and said, "Everyone likes it quite a lot. It is different from the salty bacon that we usually eat. Your bacon is a little sweet, and the guests like it quite a bit. Wait a minute. I will go there later." Check it out."

The waiter was very enthusiastic. After he finished speaking, he ran to the kitchen to have a look and asked the chef's opinion.

This guy was the shopkeeper's brother-in-law. He had some ideas, so he said to Jiang Songshu: "If you still have bacon, please send another ten kilograms over. Anyway, this bacon is durable and contains a lot of salt. If you can't sell it, Can I return it if I sell it?”

Jiang Songshu looked back at Jiang Li, saw Jiang Li nodded and said, "You can retreat, as long as there is no movement, you can retreat."

Zhang Sheng on the side went to make arrangements.

The situation in the city is similar, and a few people have stopped going to other restaurants to inquire about information. The Jiang family has shops in various areas as a base. If a nearby restaurant wants to order meat, ask someone to go to the nearby shop to explain it, and it will be raised the next day. Zhang Sheng from the pig farm will arrange for someone to deliver it.

The group went to the shop in the south of the city. When they got there, it was very lively. Many people were buying braised pork and vegetables, and some were also buying bacon.

The Jiang family's braised pork and bacon are now made from pigs from their own pig farms, and are not affected by the price of pork outside. The braised pork still costs thirty-five cents per pound, which is only five cents more expensive than raw pork. money.

The price of pork at some pork stalls has even risen to thirty-five cents per pound today, so Jiang's deli shop was surrounded early in the morning.

I have been busy from opening the shop in the morning until now.

Chengnan shopkeeper Zhenzhu and his clerk Ba ​​Mao didn't bother to have lunch, but it was useless no matter how many customers they had. They had been selling all morning, and by this time all the goods in the shop were sold out.

Pearl could only say to the big guy who didn't buy anything: "They're all sold out. There's really no more in the store. Please come back tomorrow!"

People who didn’t buy it shouted: “Will it still be the same price if I come back tomorrow?”

"Will there be any bacon tomorrow?"

People are mainly afraid that if they come back tomorrow, the price will go up.

Pearl looked embarrassed, "We raise our own pigs, that's why we sell them so cheaply. If our own pigs are gone, if we want to buy them from the pork stalls, the price will naturally increase. Today, the pork stalls sell all the pork It’s thirty-five cents per pound, so there’s nothing we can do if the price goes up, right?”

What's more, now that a flood is about to happen, I'm afraid I won't be able to buy this pork even if I want to buy it later.

Everyone looked at each other in confusion, and those who didn't buy it had a look of pain on their faces, feeling that they had suffered a heavy loss.

It was useless for everyone to stay in front of the stall, and in the end they slowly dispersed.

Pearl and Balmao were so hungry that their hands and feet were weak. When they looked up, they saw Jiang Lei and others standing not far away.

I suddenly panicked and thought about whether I had said anything wrong.

But Jiang Li and others looked as usual.

Jiang Lei asked, "You haven't eaten yet, right? Go eat first!"

"Master, where are you? Have you eaten? If not, let's buy it together!"

Pearl made way for Jiang Li and others to enter the small shop.

Jiang Li said bluntly that she had already eaten.

Pearl then tilted her head and told Bamao, who then ran to buy some steamed buns.

Without waiting for Jiang Li to ask, Pearl reported the situation in the shop today, and also explained the reason for the scene that just happened in the shop.

"Are you saying that the price of pork in the city has risen to thirty-five cents a pound?"

Jiang Li asked.

Pearl nodded affirmatively, "When we came here to open the shop this morning, we went to buy breakfast on the way. This is what a pork stall next to us said."
