Chapter 22 Selling Braised Pork Rice
When others saw this, they asked, "Is it really so fragrant? Is it better than the meat in the restaurant?" The child testified loudly, "It's true, it smells very good. If you don't believe me, just try it and you'll know." Seeing that the woman also nodded, everyone was convinced.
"Give me one!"
"I want one too, with two boiled eggs."
"I want one with a boiled egg."
Shen Lianxin responded enthusiastically, her heart was filled with joy, and she had sold more than 10 portions in a short while. The surrounding vendors had already bought what they wanted to eat, and the remaining ones would probably not be bought. She was busy for a long time, collecting money and serving food at the same time. Although she was a little tired, the joy of making money was nothing compared to this little bit of fatigue.
The crowd dispersed, and Shen Lianxin finally got a break. After a while, the gate of the academy opened, and the students took a break at noon, and walked out in groups of three or four. The vendors immediately became enthusiastic, "Inkstone, inkstone, the best inkstone, come and see, the ink ground from this inkstone is so black!"
"Purse, purse, pure hand-embroidery, exquisite purse, beautiful and inexpensive!"
"Look at this pen, young master. It's made of the finest horsehair and costs only one ounce of silver. The writing with this pen is silky and vivid. I guarantee you'll pass the imperial examination."
Shen Lianxin sighed in her heart, what a worldly atmosphere. At this moment, she felt as if she had really integrated into this world and became a member of it. Shen Lianxin silently opened the lid of the bucket and let the aroma of meat drift out. Several young people dressed as students came over following the aroma, "It smells so good, auntie, what is this?"
Auntie? Thank you! Shen Lianxin complained in her heart, feeling unhappy, but it was right for her to call her that. She was already the mother of four children, and people of similar age in the village also called her auntie. But when she was really called that, she still felt a little bit unable to accept it.
Shen Lianxin didn't show it on her face, but showed a kind smile, "Braised pork rice, freshly cooked, especially fragrant. Would you like to try one?"
"It smells so good. How much is one serving?"
"20 cents, plus 3 cents for a braised egg."
The student in front of him didn't look more than 13,4 or 20 years old, but he spoke politely. He was wearing a moon-white gown that looked a little worn from washing. When he heard the price of cents, he frowned and hesitated.
"Li Xinghe, can't you even afford a 20-cent portion of braised pork rice? Why are you still studying when you're so poor? Just go home and farm!" Three people came later. The man in the middle wore a long satin gown with a gold-threaded pattern and a fan in his hand. The two men next to him were also dressed in extraordinary attire. The three of them formed a group and made fun of the scholar named Li Xinghe.
Li Xinghe clenched his hands, "A frog in a well cannot talk about the sea, and a summer insect cannot talk about ice!"
Shen Lianxin raised her eyebrows, and the man who made the sarcastic remarks angrily asked, "What did you say?"
Another young man in a black gown came over, smiling, patted Li Xinghe on the shoulder and said to the man, "Wang Dazhi, he said he has nothing to say to people like you. Hahaha!" He laughed wildly as he spoke.
Wang Dazhi said angrily, "Zhao Zhiting, don't be so arrogant. Don't think I'm afraid of you just because you have someone in Beijing."
Zhao Zhiting swung his folding fan and looked at him sharply. Wang Dazhi was so scared that he immediately shut up and stammered, "You, you, you, why are you staring at me? I, I, I won't bother with you. Let's go!" After that, he called his two followers to leave.
Seeing the people walking away, Zhao Zhiting said to Li Xinghe, "Brother Xinghe, do you want to eat this braised pork rice? I'll treat you, boss, two servings."
"No need!" Li Xinghe refused flatly and left alone. Zhao Zhiting scratched his head awkwardly and explained to Shen Lianxin, "He has such a bad temper. Boss, give me two servings with eggs."
Shen Lianxin knew that he was not trying to explain to her, but was just trying to hide his embarrassment. She took the 46 copper coins with a smile and started to get her meal.
After a busy period, Shen Lianxin's meal sold well, and there was not much left. The students also returned to the academy. The elder brother who was selling pens next to them started to talk, "You new here don't know, the scholar named Li Xinghe is amazing, I heard that he is very good at studying, and he passed the examination to become a scholar at a young age. But his family is not well off, his family is a farmer, and he studied in this academy, and the teacher exempted him from tuition fees."
Shen Lianxin became interested when she heard the gossip, "Oh?"
Seeing Shen Lianxin's interest, the eldest brother spoke more excitedly, "But, this child has a miserable life. I heard that his family is extremely poor. Although he is exempted from paying tuition, he still can't even get enough money for food. Sometimes he only eats one steamed bun a day. How pitiful!"
Poor students, quite interesting.
The brother selling pens came over and looked into Shen Lianxin's bucket, "Wow! They're selling well. There aren't many left. Why don't you take a look and give them all to me. I'll buy some and bring them back for my kid to try."
Shen Lianxin readily agreed, "Okay! I'll give them all to you. You can also take the two braised eggs? I'll close the stall and go home."
"Okay!" There was enough meat for one and a half servings. Seeing that Shen Lianxin was happy, the eldest brother agreed with a smile.
Shen Lianxin packed all the food for the pen seller. One box didn't fit, so she packed two. It was time to close the stall.
Shen Lianxin came to the stall of a lady selling purses and spent 300 coins to buy a purse in the shape of a little rabbit that she liked. She used it to hold some pocket money, otherwise it would be too much trouble to take it out of the backpack every time.
Shen Lianxin pushed the cart away, and put the cart and bucket into the space when no one was around. Today was going well, and her braised pork rice was selling quickly, so she could still make it back to the village in time. But it was not easy to come here, and the round trip was 2 hours, which was 4 hours. Sitting in the ox cart, Shen Lianxin's butt was numb, so she had to do more things before going back.
After making up my mind, I found an inn to stay in.
Shen Lianxin ordered a pot of tea and started counting money in the room. She cooked 100 braised eggs and sold them for 300 coins, and sold a large bucket of meat for 2300 coins. Adding it all together, it was 2600 coins. The meat was from wild boars that she hunted for free, but it was impossible to hunt wild boars every time, so according to the price of pork at 35 coins per catty, the total cost was nearly 1200 coins. So the profit from this braised pork rice business was only 1100 coins.
As a rural person, earning more than one tael of silver a day is already very good, which is the harvest of most families in half a year, but Shen Lianxin is not satisfied. Her home is far away, and it is too troublesome to go to the city to sell braised pork rice. Moreover, the meat is still the same as it was just out of the pot after sitting in the car for so long. After a long time, it is inevitable that someone with ulterior motives will find the flaw.
After thinking for a while, Shen Lianxin decided to buy a shop in the city. With the shop, she would have a place to stay in the city, and she wouldn't have to carry so many things back and forth, which saved her a lot of trouble.
When buying a shop, you have to consider the business. Making braised pork rice is not enough. In fact, she is a typical foodie in modern times. She has children at home and doesn't want to eat out all the time, so she will think about making it herself.
Her favorite foods are barbecue and hotpot. Who doesn't like these two things?
