"Got it, got it." Zhang Zhenwen packed up everything, led Zhang Wuliang around the store, and pointed out to him exactly where the things were: "The things in the shop are just like this, just like what you had before. Nothing has changed, if you can't find anything, just ask Huzi."

Zhang Wuliang nodded: "Okay, I see."

"That's fine." Zhang Zhenwen went back to the room to pick up his things: "Then I'll go first."

"Let's go now?" Zhang Wuliang followed behind and asked to stay for a while: "Why don't you leave after lunch."

Zhang Zhenwen put the burden on his back: "No, the sun will be poisoned after eating, why not go back and eat, and there will be time if you walk faster on the road."

"Okay." Zhang Wuliang helped him carry another bag and sent him to the door: "Be careful on the road, come back early."

Zhang Zhenwen took the burden in his hand and showed him a meaningful smile.

Zhang Wuliang is in a bad mood: "Don't just stay at home for a month!"

Zhang Zhenwen patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Don't worry, don't worry, it won't be very long, hahaha" Then he laughed and walked towards the city gate with his bag.

Amidst his thunderous laughter, Zhang Wuliang's heart trembled, and he felt that he was not at ease at all, okay?

I don't know what bad idea this person has in his heart.

When Zhang Wuliang turned around and returned to Baiyufang, Chen Xiaonian had already packed the room and was preparing lunch in the kitchen. Zhang Wuliang leaned against the door frame. Chen Xiaonian raised his head and smiled at him when he felt the movement. Zhang Wuliang unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth: Forget it No matter when he comes, with this person in front of him, he can stay here for as long as he wants.

Zhang Wuliang stood at the door and watched Chen Xiaonian busy for a while.Then he turned around and went to the counter, ready to take a look at the accounts of the past few days to find out the business situation in the store.

The account book is recorded in the form of a table, so that the accounts of the past few days look clear at a glance. Seeing the account book full of Arabic numerals, Zhang Wuliang once again praised himself for teaching Zhang Zhenwen modern mathematics. It is simple, convenient and easy to learn. People who have never learned it I still don't understand, the ability to keep secrets is top-notch, how great!

The income and expenses of these few days are quite large. In order to prevent mistakes in mental calculations, Zhang Wuliang pulled the abacus by the counter to count.

This abacus is still left by the old dumpling shop, Zhang Wuliang doesn't know how to make an abacus, compared with the abacus, Zhang Wuliang feels that his vertical calculation is faster than the abacus.

He put the abacus back into the room, but Zhang Zhenwen took it out again, presumably for the purpose of displaying it there, as a pretense, Zhang Wuliang didn't think that Zhang Zhenwen would plan the abacus.

Regarding the abacus, Zhang Wuliang only remembers that the upper five is the lower one, and the upper one is "five" and the lower one is "one".

As for the specifics, he doesn't know, but now that he doesn't have pen and ink, he can barely remember the number with an abacus.

When Zhang Wuliang was still in the store, he remembered all the accounts in the store. On the first day, he paid a lot of money. In order to open up the market and attract customers, he actually didn’t earn anything. There was also the rent for the oil, salt and sauce shop. When it came down, fifty articles were posted upside down.

Fortunately, after the price recovered, it also started to make a profit. In the past ten days, the gross profit of Baiyufang has reached [-] Wen.That's two taels of silver. After deducting the daily cost, Zhang Wuliang did a rough calculation and it was about [-], [-], or [-] a day. This shop is really making money. No wonder the second brother was happy when he left. of it.

While Zhang Wuliang was doing the accounting, several customers came in one after another, and Hu Zi received him. He bought some bean products and left.

Zhang Wuliang explained to them one by one that the original shopkeeper had returned home, and he would replace him for a few days, and the rules of the shop would not change until the store was changed, so they went home with confidence.

Zhang Wuliang shook his head amusedly, he just stayed home for a few days and these people even forgot about him.

As noon approached, there were fewer people coming to buy things. Zhang Wuliang sat behind the counter with his abacus, thinking about his future plans.

At this time, Wu Maoqian's voice came: "Huzi, isn't it your turn to cook today? Why are you here? Where are the mosquitoes? Is the meal ready?"

Hu Zi shook his head, he felt that only the last question was the one his elder brother wanted to ask the most: "Brother Liang brought Fu Lang here today, Brother Wen came home, and Brother Chen is making rice."

Wu Maoqian didn't notice Huzi's strange name: "Then I'll wait inside for a while." Then he pulled a bench from the side and sat down, crossing his legs and looking around.

Since Wu Maoqian started eating and drinking in Baiyufang, he went to the store to report at noon. His small stall was placed under the corner of Baiyufang, and Brother Zhou next to him would help him to see it. At a glance, it is enough for someone to shout at the top of his voice, he can hear it anyway.

Wu Maoqian glanced over the counter inadvertently, and landed on the special sauced tofu under the counter, thinking that Huzi would take some back when he came home later. He likes to eat all kinds of new tofu from Baiyufang Sauce tofu, delicious!

Zhang Wuliang rested his hands on the counter, resting his head like this, watching Wu Maoqian's gaze lingering on all kinds of tofu in his house.

Zhang Wuliang didn't remind them, and the two of them just fought like this. At this time, Chen Xiaonian appeared and successfully rescued the two boring people.

As soon as Chen Xiaonian came out, he was startled by the figure at the door, and after a closer look, he found that Wu Maoqian was squatting there, Chen Xiaonian breathed a sigh of relief, looked at him and said, "Brother Wu is here too, have you eaten yet? let's eat together."

When Wu Maoqian heard that it was time to eat, he jumped up from the bench happily, and walked excitedly to the kitchen: "Really? That's great, let's have dinner."

Then he turned his head with some doubts: "Brother Nian? Why are you here?"

Huzi raised his forehead, he already knew what he said just now, the eldest brother guessed that the only thing that was automatically blocked was "the rice is being cooked".

Zhang Wuliang came from behind, slapped Wu Maoqian on the head, and said angrily: "Not only Xiaonian is here, but I am also here. I really don't know if you are deaf or blind? Such a big man Can't you see people in front of you?"

Wu Maoqian covered his head and laughed: "Hey, you are here? Where did you go just now? Why didn't I see you?"

Huzi silently covered his face.

Zhang Wuliang laughed angrily: "I'm just sitting at the counter."

"Ah..." Wu Maoqian showed the original expression: "So it's you, I thought it was a mosquito, by the way, where is the mosquito?"

"Going home" Zhang Wuliang replied angrily.

"Oh." Wu Maoqian nodded to show that he understood: "Then shall we have dinner?"

Zhang Wuliang: ...

Chen Xiaonian laughed happily at the side, seeing Wu Maoqian's eagerness to get into the kitchen immediately, he held back his smile and nodded: "The meal is on the table."

Wu Maoqian ran into the kitchen excitedly, and Huzi also nodded to Chen Xiaonian and walked in. Chen Xiaonian looked at Zhang Wuliang and said, "Brother Zhang, go and eat, I'll watch in the store for a while."

Zhang Wuliang frowned: "Can't you eat any more?"

Chen Xiaonian nodded honestly: "It's a bit nauseating from the oily smoke, it will be fine later."

Zhang Wuliang walked over and patted his head: "I was negligent, I will cook for the next few days."

Chen Xiaonian raised his head and was about to say something, but was interrupted by Zhang Wuliang: "Aren't there grapes in the clay pot? I'll get some for you to eat?"

Chen Xiaonian swallowed: "Okay..."

After Chen Xiaonian ate a few grapes for an appetizer, he actually ate some food.But in Zhang Wuliang's eyes, a little cat food is not enough to fill him up, but Chen Xiaonian really can't eat anymore.

Zhang Wuliang had no choice but to set up a stove and use an earthen pot to stew a can of porridge for him to eat when he wanted.

Zhang Wuliang looked at the white porridge that was tumbling in front of him, and suddenly missed the preserved egg and lean meat porridge he had eaten before.

He came out of the kitchen, looked at Chen Xiaonian and asked, "Xiao Nian, do you know who can make preserved eggs?"

Chen Xiaonian looked at him suspiciously: "Preserved egg? What kind of egg is that?"

Zhang Wuliang thought for a while: "It's preserved eggs."

Chen Xiaonian still shook his head.

"Is there no one who knows how to do it?" Zhang Wuliang asked: "It is to marinate duck eggs into yellow transparent and black transparent eggs with beautiful patterns on them, have you seen them?"

Chen Xiaonian shook his head: "I have never seen the kind of beautiful duck eggs you mentioned."

Zhang Wuliang thought for a while and then asked Hu Zi, "Have you seen it in the town?"

Huzi shook his head honestly.

Zhang Wuliang suppressed the excitement in his heart, he just knew there was such a thing, he had never done it himself, and he didn't know if he could make it.

He looked at Huzi and asked, "Where can I buy duck eggs in the town?"

Huzi shook his head: "I don't know the details, the villagers who come to buy vegetables in the morning may sometimes bring some."

Zhang Wuliang nodded: "Then I'll go and have a look tomorrow morning."

Chen Xiaonian listened from the side, thought for a while and said, "Brother Zhang, do you want to make preserved eggs?"

Zhang Wuliang nodded: "But I don't know how to do it specifically, let's try to do something first."

Chen Xiaonian nodded, he thought for a while and said, "Actually, there are some duck eggs at home."

"Huh?" Zhang Wuliang remembered that his family also raised ducks: "How many?"

Chen Xiaonian thought for a while: "When we left, there was still a small basket, about thirty or forty."

There are not many, Zhang Wuliang thought for a while: "I'd better go and see tomorrow, if it can be made, the demand will be great."

Chen Xiaonian nodded half understanding.

Making preserved eggs requires not only duck eggs, but also plant ash, quicklime, soda ash, tea leaves and salt.But now Baiyufang has nothing but tea and salt.

Plant ash is good. If there is straw in the backyard, it will be good to burn a pile later. I am afraid that quicklime and soda ash must be bought at the pharmacy. I wonder if the pharmacy will give you the amount he wants?

Zhang Wuliang touched his chin and thought for a while, then showed a smirk.
