cool summer [farming]

Everyone was amazed, and saw the crowds in front of the stall, so they lined up dubiously. If they could really bring them back, they could buy more for their family members.

Fu Juyan and the others were very busy, Wei Qingning only learned a little arithmetic, and it took a long time to count every time he collected money, especially for those repeat customers who wanted to buy again after eating.Baiwen people are used to stringing them together, and there are very few ten-wen strings, so they have to count them one by one.Seeing that he was sweating profusely from counting, Fu Juyan was afraid that he would suffer from heat stroke, so he quickly served him a bowl of porridge, and told him not to count those who had a penny, even if they couldn't count.

Wei Qingning didn't want to eat that bowl of porridge, so she gave it to Sister Cui and asked her to pack it for the guests. It was thirty cents!

The loose money just listened to my little dad, took a quick look at it, and put it in the wooden box that held the money.Wei Qingning pursed his lips. In the future, he not only wanted to study hard, but also to learn math well, so that he could help little daddy.

The food at the small stalls decreased at a very fast speed. Fu Juyan and the others didn’t make much porridge, and there were only about thirty skewers of candied haws. When the congee was sold out, half of the cold cakes were still unsold. Everyone in the queue was very sorry. After all, women and children ate more cakes, and men were keen on cold porridge.

Even so, giving one of the two cold cakes quickly caused the number of cold cakes to drop rapidly. In the end, seeing that there were no more cold cakes, those who hadn't bought them were anxious, and even clashed over it.

It turned out that the person in front ordered three packs at one go, that is, thirty, and gave him another ten yuan. The cold cake that was originally worth a hundred yuan was reduced by nearly half, and the rest of the queue were all eating and coming again Rearranged, they don’t want one or two. People dressed like this boy asked for half of it in one go, but they didn’t offend the people in the queue behind. It’s already gone. Everyone understands that one person can take less. It's better than waiting here for a long time and returning empty-handed, but this person bought so much with his mouth open, how can he tell the people behind him not to worry?

This boy is also in a dilemma, his young master has been weak since he was a child, and he can't stand extreme cold and heat, and he can't eat iced food at this time, but this summer is extremely hot, how can he bear it if he doesn't drink something cold?Today, he was ordered by his wife to find some warming and cooling things for the young master, and he happened to see this place. He curiously bought an iced porridge and drank it. It was warm in the mouth and not irritating. It doesn't stimulate the stomach and intestines like eating ice water, but the cool feeling has been covering the whole body from top to bottom, and even the mouth is cool, and I am shocked to heaven!This can be regarded as finding the right thing for the young master!So he hurriedly lined up again, but in the end there was only cold cake left, and this cold cake was also refreshing, only one bite or two was enough, so he had to order several packs, planning to give his wife and young master a taste.If it is suitable, I will come here to buy it in the future.

So the boy was reluctant to give up the cold cake, "My young master didn't have dinner, so if I eat this cake to my heart's content, I'm afraid I'll use more of it."

Seeing this, Fu Juyan rounded up the situation and said: "My little brother, is this cool cake really cool? It's better not to eat too much. Just one packet is enough. This thing in my house has the effect of refreshing the brain. I'm afraid of you My son eats too much and can't sleep at night. Since you are in the queue, it is of course up to you how much you want to buy, but it is more than half of the day, it is best not to leave this kind of pastry overnight, it is better to buy two packs first, your family After you eat it, you feel good, so just buy it again, my little stall will come here at this time every day."

The boy hesitated for a while and finally agreed, Fu Juyan asked Sister Cui to wrap it up for someone, seeing that the boy was not domineering, he only paid for one bag of cold cakes, and the other bag was considered a gift.The boy left happily.

In this way, many of the remaining people did not buy it, so Fu Juyan had no choice but to ask people to come back at another day, and said that there would be discounts every day for the first three days. Everyone had heard Fu Juyan's words that they would come every day, so they had no choice but to Forget it, thinking about coming back tomorrow.

When everyone was gone, the few people who were so busy sweating profusely breathed a sigh of relief. When they saw the money box that Wei Qingning was holding, their hearts started pounding again. Wang Dashi swallowed and stammered: : "This, yes, yes, how much?"

With a flushed face, Wei Qingning handed the box to Dad with both hands: "Daddy, I can't count the odds and ends. There are a total of [-] strings of hundred-wen copper coins, [-] strings in total."

"Boom", that was the heartbeat of everyone present except Fu Juyan, Wang Dashi was so excited that his face flushed, "This, this, post it! I made more than ten taels this day! Just, just Such a short time of work..." These ten taels of silver are enough for an ordinary family to spend for a year, and they can earn it easily, no wonder he is so excited.

These words spoke out the aspirations of the people present. They made more than a dozen taels in such a short period of time, and they basically didn't spend any capital. This is a net profit!The faces of the children were flushed with excitement, and Ge Zhengxiu also had a smile in his eyes, looking at the smiling Fu Juyan.

Fu Juyan coughed and said, "Calm down, it's only the first day that you're like this, do you believe that there will be more people coming here tomorrow? It's all a trivial matter, just follow the master and wait to make a lot of money!"

Everyone suppressed their excitement and nodded desperately, believe it, why don't you believe it?If they were asked to come, they wouldn't dare to sell a piece of pastry for twelve cents, and there would still be people vying for it!

Wang Dashi was a little worried, "You Yan, is this porridge and pastries a bit expensive?" .

Fu Juyan reassured him, "Brother Dashi, if you think about it this way, things are rare and expensive. Our cold cakes may not be available everywhere. Just for this uniqueness, how much is it worth? These two explanations How many can be found in the whole country that can compare to food in summer? Those who can afford ice are all wealthy families, and ordinary people can find it? Not to mention that they can be bought with money, let alone the price. I can't afford it, these people," Fu Juyan said to himself, "Brother Dashi, just wait, before Mint is discovered, you will only be scrambled for these two things."

These Wang Dashi also understood that he was a little uneasy after making so much money all at once. Hearing what Fu Juyan said, he let go of his heart and just scratched his head and smirked.

Finally Fu Juyan made a final decision, "Okay, let's pack up and find somewhere to eat."

When it was said that they were eating, everyone felt hungry, so they hurriedly packed up their things, and one of them took some back to the place where the ox cart was stored, put everything away, and then looked for a place to eat.

Fu Juyan asked Ge Zhengxiu the biggest restaurant in the county directly, and dragged them in regardless of everyone's objections.

None of the children had eaten in the restaurant, and they seemed very reserved. Fu Juyan was already hungry, so he directly called the waiter to report the names of the dishes. Before everyone could react, they ordered a table of dishes.The food was served quickly, and by the time everyone came back to their senses, Fu Juyan and Ge Zhengxiu, who had been acting very calm, had already had their first bite.

Everyone didn't eat lunch. They have been busy until now. They are tired and hungry. They have already arrived here, and they don't care much. They finished this luxurious meal while feeling distressed.

When paying, Fu Juyan asked Xiao Er to pack two simple dishes, and bought two small snacks here, intending to take them back for the sister-in-law and aunt to eat.

This meal cost a total of two taels of silver. From Fu Juyan's point of view, the food in this No. [-] restaurant is just the same, but since this place is so popular, the price is still very fair.Wang Dashi and the other children didn't think so. They hissed in unison, thinking, Ju Yan (aunt) (little dad) can not only make money, but also spend it!

It was getting late after dinner, Fu Juyan originally wanted to go shopping again, but he had to rest his mind, and followed the crowd back home, just in time to get back when it was dark.

As soon as I entered the village, I met a few women. I saw them driving an ox cart. In addition to two small tables, there were two old old pottery pots and some dishes in the cart. I couldn't help showing disdainful eyes. Once in the county, they brought back some dishes. Looking at the two tables, I don't know where to get the junk!

A good-natured woman shouted: "Zhengxiu's family! Where did this come from?"

Ge Zhengxiu glanced at her indifferently, the ferocious scarred face and the coolness in his eyes made the woman take a step back, and when she was far away, she broke her mouth: "What an air! The whole family is poor!"

The women around did not dare to speak, but they had the same expression on their faces.

Fu Juyan was very satisfied with Ge Zhengxiu's handling. He sat on the side and watched Wei Qingning count the money inside, "How is it? Have you counted?"

Wei Qingning said obediently: "After counting, little daddy, there are a total of fifteen pennies and four hundred coins, and a few pieces of silver, worth two taels."

Fu Juyan said "Yes", he paid for the food spent today, and the money in it was useless, he thought it was too troublesome to exchange two taels of silver for two guinea.

When they got home, Yang Qiaorong and Aunt Wang were waiting at the door, helping to unload the things, both of them were hesitant to talk, Fu Juyan smiled and asked everyone to go to the main room, and motioned Wei Qingning to open the box. Lai put it on the table in the main room, a hanging of copper coins inside caused the two people to exclaim, Wei Qingning said the number just now again, the two people were naturally ecstatic and unbelievable, and they just calmed down The Wang Dashi who came down were excited again.

Ge Ziming even chattered about what he had seen and heard today with his mother and Grandma Wang, saying that the cold porridge and cold cakes on the stall were all being rushed for by everyone, those people lined up in a long line, and some hadn't eaten yet. Wait, there will be more people tomorrow!Both of them laughed from ear to ear at what he said.

After everyone calmed down, Fu Juyan concluded: "Today's trial sale is quite satisfactory, but we need to think about the packaging of cold porridge, find some cheap packaging, and sell it after packaging. The manpower needed It’s less and easier. There is no need to increase the price of porridge, lest everyone think that we sit on the ground and raise the price, and the table is still there. If you want to sit and eat the porridge, you can sit and eat it. Everyone makes it at home every day, and two people go to the booth You can leave as soon as it’s sold out, there’s no need to carry clay pots and bowls and chopsticks.”

Everyone thinks this is good, but the packaging is difficult. There is no porridge packaged for sale here, but a small shop is opened for people to eat it. Although they sell it in oil paper today, it is very good, but At this time, ceramics were not cheap, and a bowl cost eight cents, so they couldn't always give away bowls for nothing.
