Master is not to be provoked

After entering December, the snow is getting heavier every time.

When he got up in the morning, Ke Muai cooked porridge and boiled eggs, and Jing Yunsong helped him.

"Mumu, actually you don't go to school, you don't have to wake up so early like me, you can sleep in." Jing Yunsong took out a stack of frozen bowls from the cupboard, and poured the freshly heated water in the pot Unfreeze, "Those who don't go to school sleep until noon."

"I'm used to getting up, and besides, it's already nine, it's freezing, how can I go to school without eating in the morning."

"I can go to the chess and card room to eat, just let my mother make it for me."

"Pull it down, you said that a few times ago, you didn't have any food in the end, and you were hungry until noon. Your mother, if you can find a way to coax my father to drive you to school, Amitabha is the only one who can count on others of what?"

As Ke Muai spoke, he cooked the porridge and put out a large bowl for each person, with two boiled eggs and the fried cowpea dried with meat made last night. It tasted sweet and delicious.

After eating, the two washed the dishes. It was not yet full light outside. Jing Yunsong picked up his schoolbag and hugged and bid farewell to Ke Muai: "I'm going to school. You can catch up on it when you go back. The kang will be hot again. Yes."

After sending Jing Yunsong away, Ke Muai started to pack his things, first went to the space to get mushrooms, this time he took not ordinary mushrooms, but all Hericium erinaceus, in the past three months, Beiyan Mountain was almost wiped out by him , and went into the space to search again, and picked a mountain of mushrooms, most of which were sold in the market. A whole box.

Ke Muai took out the steelyard and put each catty into a plastic bag. After filling ten bags, there was still a lot left.

He also took out five four flat wooden boxes specially ordered by the carpenter in the town, and put ginseng, deer antler and cordyceps into them.

Naturally, these things were still placed in the space, and a pack of mushrooms was put in a sack outside, carried on the back of the body, and the door was locked, stepping on the snow that had not entered the calf, step by step towards the town.

His goal is not Shiqiao Town, because he will be seen by Ke Yongli who sent Jing Yunsong to school. The small mountain bag can only be reached.

The snow in the field was thicker than that in the village, and some of it didn't reach his waist. Ke Muai took out a poplar board from the space, lay on it, and paddled on the snow at a very fast speed.Originally, he had to pass a small river on the way. He originally planned that the river would freeze and he could step on it, but it was completely covered with snow. He couldn't find the exact location of the river, so he rowed across the snow.

Because I was afraid of missing the bus, I took a lot of time in advance. When I arrived at Caoting Town, I waited in the snow for nearly half an hour. I took a minibus and drove to the county. It was already noon when I arrived at the county town. First find a leeward place, enter the space, drink a bowl of hot meat porridge to warm up your body, and then walk to the soda factory with a sack on your back.

When I arrived at the soda factory, I said to the person watching the gate: "Is your factory manager there? The New Year's deliverer is here."

The gatekeeper of this house is an old man with a good attitude. Seeing him in rags, wearing cotton hair, carrying a torn sack, and his little face flushed from the cold, he didn't kick him out immediately, and asked jokingly, "What are you doing?" What kind of New Year gift can I give? It can’t be the God of Wealth, right? It’s not yet the Western New Year, so it’s too early to give it to the God of Wealth.”

According to the Chinese tradition, on New Year’s Eve, the God of Wealth is to be greeted. Usually, the God of Wealth is greeted. A frame is made out of a straw, and a picture of the God of Wealth is glued on it. Then, pig’s head bean buns are offered, wax is burnt and incense is lit, and firecrackers are set off to welcome the God.

Years ago, there were people who gave portraits of the God of Wealth door-to-door, not mentioning the price, but only asking the head of the household to reward him with his heart, usually fifty cents, or one or two yuan. There are often people who are so stubborn that they will not leave unless they buy one, so they are called those who want a small amount of money.

Ke Muai rubbed her hands, opened the sack, and took out a bag of mushrooms: "I'm not the kind who asks for small money, what I give is real New Year's goods. These are Hericium erinaceus mushrooms, which I picked on the mountain. We often say that monkey head bird's nest is monkey head bird's nest. The monkey head inside is this thing. It is very expensive. It is not uncommon to get one or two. It is not easy to get a catty like me. Take it out and give it to the city The gifts given by the leaders are better than tobacco and alcohol, as well as ginseng, deer antler, and cordyceps. You can call your factory manager and ask him if he wants any.”

The old man was taken aback by what he said. Seeing that what he was holding was really Hericium erinaceus, he picked up the phone on the desk and told them the factory manager.

It just so happened that the factory manager was having a meeting in the workshop today. Soda is not easy to sell in winter, and he was studying how to expand the market. When he received this call, he heard that there was a shop selling New Year’s goods, which turned out to be expensive supplements. This is just right, quickly ask the secretary to preside over the meeting on his behalf, and run to the gate by himself.

The director of the factory is younger than Ke Yongsheng. He looks less than 40 years old. He also wears suits and leather shoes, and his oiled hair is meticulously combed.After entering the door, he took a few glances at Ke Muai: "Are you the kid who sells mushrooms?"

Ke Muai was a little speechless, feeling that this title was similar to the little girl who sold matches and the little girl who picked mushrooms.

He handed over the mushrooms, and the factory manager took a look at them, and it turned out to be the best Hericium erinaceus mushrooms: "I also have ginseng, deer antler, and cordyceps, all of which are picked from the mountains." He put three wooden boxes together Once opened, the box is made of high-quality elm wood, with names engraved on the lids. After opening, the inside is covered with red cloth. In the first box, two ginsengs are placed side by side, and the second is more than 20 Chinese caterpillar fungus. There are deer antlers on the two back ones. Although they look rough, they look pretty good.

"How do you plan to sell these mushrooms and antlers?"

"Mushrooms cost 200 yuan a catty, and velvet antlers cost 500 yuan a catty."

"200 yuan per catty!" The old man watching the gate was startled. Now that RMB is valuable, a bottle of soda is only [-] cents. This catty of Hericium erinaceus can be exchanged for a thousand bottles of soda!

The factory manager was also a little surprised: "You want 200 yuan a catty for this thing? And why is that deer antler so expensive?"

Ke Muai said: "Look, uncle, these are all newly produced mushrooms this year. As I said just now, one or two mushrooms are not uncommon. What's rare is that I sell them by the catty. They are all dried. You can count it out, add some other dishes, you can fry two dishes per catty, and this velvet antler is also freshly cut sika velvet, you can take it home to honor your parents, or give gifts to the leaders, especially the elderly in the city The old boss, that’s something to be particular about. It’s so old now. Chicken, duck and fish meat roll off the stage, and savage poisonous snakes climb up. What they eat is a novelty. You send two catties of monkey head, a pair of velvet antler, and two catties Tea is better than giving you two bottles of Moutai and two Hongta Mountains. Giving cigarettes and wine is so vulgar. It’s written on the pack that tobacco and alcohol are harmful to your health. Giving monkey heads and velvet antlers is giving you health. Definitely be happy."
