The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm
Chapter 25 Talking about business
A few people who had never been to such a place looked around. The room was separated by an antique screen, so people who entered could not see directly inside. In front of the screen was a low table with a big-bellied, tall-footed vase on it, with a few forsythia flowers in it.
Going around the screen, there is a round table and several solid wood chairs inside.
The shopkeeper extended his hand forward and said, "Please take a seat."
"You can call me Shopkeeper Liu. Today I ate the dish Xiaoni made with tofu. The chef and I both think this can be added to my family's recipes."
"We can also sell soy milk and tofu pudding on your behalf. I'm thinking of opening a breakfast shop in addition to lunch and dinner."
"So, I want you to send me two buckets of soy milk, two buckets of tofu pudding, and tofu every day. Send me ten pieces tomorrow to see how they sell. If they sell well, I'll increase the quantity."
When the family of four heard the news, it felt like pie in the sky had fallen on them, and they were so surprised that they couldn’t express it in words.
"In addition, the chef and I have seen the methods of making the two dishes, green onion tofu and spicy tofu. According to the price we charge for recipes in the past, there are two ways."
"One is to buy it out for five taels of silver, and the other is to split the profits. For every dish you sell, I'll give you two cents."
"I will charge the original price for soy milk and tofu pudding, and I won't bargain with you."
Ni'er did the math in her mind. Ten blocks of tofu were worth thirty cents, and she could still make another ten cents after deducting the cost. Based on the flow of people in their family, the demand for tofu would be even greater in the future. If she bought it out, it would be inconvenient for her to get the money from the system herself, so she chose to share the profits.
There is no problem with the money for soy milk and tofu pudding.
However, I have to study every day, and my mother is getting heavier and heavier, so she probably can't do the following work. My father is also busy working in the fields, and Niu Li is still young and can't be relied on. It seems that I have to think of a way to hire out the job of grinding soy milk.
The whole family is now looking at Nier, and Nier is now the backbone of the family.
The shopkeeper also understood the situation, but he still looked at Niu Lao San politely, and was actually waiting for Ni'er to make a decision.
After thinking for a while, Nier said, "Manager Liu has a noble character. It's really admirable. He has already learned how to make these two dishes, but he still paid us. No wonder your business is so prosperous."
Shopkeeper Liu didn't expect that a countryman who was supposed to be illiterate would say such a thing. He couldn't help wondering, "Has the little kid ever been to school?"
Nier smiled and said, "I help out at a doctor's home. Sometimes I go on his visits and occasionally I can hear and learn a little."
Shopkeeper Liu was very surprised that such a young girl could actually know medical skills, so he wanted to give her a try.
Shopkeeper Liu put his hand on his short beard and said, "I have a request, could you help me?"
Nier knew that this was a test for herself, and it was a good opportunity to test the knowledge she had learned. "Please go ahead~"
Shopkeeper Liu pointed to a fish tank outside the door and said, "There's a koi fish in there these days, and it's got some white sores on its body. Can it be cured?"
Niu Laosan and Yan Zi looked at each other and saw the disbelief in each other's eyes. Doctors treat people, how can they also treat fish?
And that fish must be a rare species. What if it died from the treatment?
Besides, Ni'er had only been studying for a short time, and her family was just ordinary farmers. She definitely couldn't afford to offend someone who could open such a big restaurant.
Nier felt two gazes directed at her, so she put her hand on her mother's arm to reassure her, "I'll go take a look first."
After hearing the symptoms described by Manager Liu, Ni'er felt that it was very similar to the situation she encountered a few days ago. That patient also had some skin problems, and some parts had already ulcerated. The master said that animals and humans have similarities, so why not take a risk and give it a try.
Several people gathered around the fish tank, in which there was a red koi. It was a little different from the others, as you could clearly see the white part of its body.
It swims very slowly, and sometimes you can't even see it moving. You can feel its life slipping away. If it doesn't get treatment, it will probably die soon.
Shopkeeper Liu sighed, "I've consulted many people these days, but they all said it couldn't be cured, so I thought I'd give it one more try. Don't feel burdened, just give it a try."
Lao San and Yan Zi breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this. Then, seeing that Ni'er was very calm and composed, they felt relieved.
Nier observed for a while and said, "Is there a separate basin? Take this fish out to prevent it from infecting other fishes. Give me a towel."
Put the fish alone in a basin and wrap it with a towel to prevent it from slipping. The fish seemed to understand that it was for treatment, so it did not struggle and let Nier do what she wanted.
Nier first pulled out the broken scale. Perhaps because it felt pain, the fish shook slightly, but soon calmed down.
I went to the kitchen and got some purslane and dandelions, washed them, squeezed out the juice and filtered it.
A small portion of the juice was poured onto the fish's wound, and even the water changed color.
Nier raised her head and said, "Manager Liu, pour this medicine on the fish's wound three times a day. You don't need to change the water. Wait until the wound is completely healed and then put the fish back into the fish tank."
Manager Liu took the potion with both hands and said with admiration, "This child will definitely have a great future."
"By the way, Manager Liu, I want to ask you about something." Ni'er thought that Manager Liu must be more well-informed than the average person, so she might as well take this opportunity to ask him today.
"Excuse me~" I unconsciously started using honorifics in my speech.
"Are there any places around here that can teach children as young as five or six?"
Shopkeeper Liu glanced at Niu Li. He should have enlightened this child. Although the child did not speak much, there was a cleverness in his eyes, just like his sister. "There are two private schools in the town, very close to each other. Rich families nearby will send their children there."
"One school is dedicated to giving children of four or five years old an education. If they want to continue their studies, they will be accepted by another private school. The teacher of the private school is a scholar named Li, and the annual tuition fee is two taels of silver."
The third brother realized that it was Ni'er who asked Niu Li about enlightenment, and that he, as a father, was actually worse than a child.
When he heard about the two taels of silver, the third brother felt that the burden on his shoulders became heavier.
Yan Zi frowned slightly. She would have to embroider more insoles in the future, but today's ones have not been sold yet.
Niu Li didn't know how much two taels of silver was. He only knew that it was a word he had never heard of before and it should be a very large amount of money.
Nier can afford two taels of silver a year, but if she has to go back and forth to the town every day, the fare will be a huge expense, and she is also worried about sending such a young child to school alone.
Nier continued to ask, "Manager Liu, is there any other private school for children besides this town? I am worried if I have to go back and forth every day."
