​Transmigrated into Ancient Times to Sell Desserts

Liu Yimian was sent away by Ji Wei himself, the school building was also furnished, and he even made favors, entrusted Lin Tai, Lu Yushu and others to take care of Liu Yimian when he had time, it can be said that everything has been taken care of.

Logically speaking, he should be relieved.

But on the way back, I just felt something was wrong.My heart felt empty, as if something was missing.

He didn't react all the way, until he went to the shop on North Street and was ordered by Zhao Hu, and he finally understood.

"Brother Ji, what's wrong with you? It's like losing your soul?" Ji Wei took this one afternoon, lost that one, yelled outside to entertain guests, and almost forgot to collect money several times.If the guests were not very honest, I am afraid they would have lost a lot of money.

Zhao Hu saw it all, and when he was free, he sat side by side with Ji Wei on the stone steps, and couldn't help but speak out.

"Is there?" Ji Wei turned to look at Zhao Hu.

This person who is full of energy on weekdays can really be said to be clear at a glance if he becomes fatigued.

Zhao Hu has worked with Ji Wei for a long time, and he rarely sees him in such a lost state, coupled with his straightforward temper, he really can't complain.The relationship with other people is not as close as he and Ji Wei, dare not tell the truth, and only he can sit down and chat with Ji Wei.

"Look for yourself, how many times have you undercharged in the afternoon? When you went to check the batter, you didn't even notice that the sugar was under weighed. I'm afraid something will go wrong." Zhao Hu stared at Ji Wei for a long time, and suddenly said, "Didn't you send Xiao Liu to the county school in the morning? How is it?"

"I'm a vulgar person. I've never been to a place that feels like a scholar." Zhao Hu thought for a long time, but couldn't think of a suitable word to describe the county school. He rubbed the back of his head embarrassedly, Han Han said.

"County school, you can see students holding books and reciting books everywhere, and the fragrance of pens and inks can be seen everywhere. It is a very cultural place." Ji Wei only needs to think of Liu Yimian who came out from there, and he will also become a romantic scholar. His face is unconscious He showed a few smiles, diluting his sadness.

"That's right!" Zhao Hu clapped his hands suddenly.

"what?"

"It must be that Xiaoliu is gone, you miss him." Zhao Hu smiled, showing two rows of shining teeth, his eyes narrowed into a slit, "Xiaoliu just left in the morning, and your soul is gone this afternoon." Fly with him, brother Ji, brother Ji, I really didn't see it!"

After Zhao Hu pointed to Ji Wei and said this, he stood up from the stone steps, leaving Ji Wei alone, and went into the backyard to get busy.

"I miss him?" Ji Wei said to himself.

"Impossible, I've only been back for less than two hours, how can I think about it."

"But……"

Ever since he came to this strange place, he opened his eyes and saw Liu Yimian.The two of them depended on each other and never separated for more than a day.But now, he sent Liu Yimian to a place far away from him, and I'm afraid we won't be able to see each other often in the future.

I'm used to having him by my side, but suddenly he's gone, I really can't get used to it.

Ji Wei sighed, and patted his cheek hard to wake himself up, "He is going to school, you have to be more aggressive, how can you be so decadent? It's really useless!"

*****

Ji Wei's pastry shop is called Weijue.

At the beginning, it was unknown, not even as famous as its owner, Ji Wei.

But since the mooncakes became famous on the day of Mid-Autumn Festival, it has become more and more fierce, and everyone in the whole North Street knows the name of delicious taste.

Now half a month has not yet passed, there are already customers from the four streets, east, west, north and south, rushing here through the revolving door, queuing up in a long line, just to buy some food that cannot be seen elsewhere.

With such a famous name, Ji Wei spent a whole day making four [-]-inch big cakes, cut them into one-eighth size, packed them in exquisite cartons, and sent them to famous families in Changliu Town. Go, don't worry if no one wants you.

When the other party heard that this was a new pastry delivered from "Wei Jue", he was overjoyed at that time.I feel that they didn't order anything, and when Weijue came out with a new product, they turned around and asked someone to come to taste it for themselves. With such a good face, it was treating them as honored guests.

As soon as I ate the cream cake again, I was astonished.

Regardless of whether anyone in the family has a birthday or not, they all borrow the name of the birthday and send someone to Ji Wei's shop to order a birthday cake.

It's just that this birthday cake was a high-end custom route from the beginning, and it's not something that anyone on the street can afford.

Ji Wei is well versed in the principle that hope is the most precious thing, and he directly released the rumors that one birthday cake order was received one day, first come, first served, and the last one had to queue up, which was postponed on a daily basis.As for the price of the birthday cake, it varies from one tael to three taels of silver depending on the size, material, and style.

For this reason, every time Ji Wei makes a cake, he has to draw it on the spot for the promotion, and finally make it into an album and copy it several times.When someone customizes a cake, it will be sent to him to choose and order.

This one-stop door-to-door service from ordering to delivery is a sales method that has never been heard and seen in this small Changliu Town. careful thinking.

Therefore, the launch of the birthday cake suddenly became popular in Changliu Town.

As long as it is a big and respectable family, when entertaining guests, they will put birthday cakes on the table to show off their appearance.

But behind the more prosperous business, problems came one after another.

Among them, the weaning of ewes caused Ji Wei the most headache.

Although not all of them were weaned at once, such a trend has been shown now.

The goat milk delivered every day is constantly decreasing, and it has long been unable to meet the needs of the store.But one of the most basic raw materials of Ji Wei's pastry is milk. Without milk, it is difficult to form biscuits or cakes.

Regarding this matter, Ji Wei is not unaware.

Physiological weaning cannot be controlled by manpower, so it is impossible for Zhao Zizi to save money, so Ji Wei can only think of other ways to discuss with the shopkeepers of grocery stores in various streets to find milk sources together.

It's a pity that milk sources are easy to obtain, but a large and stable milk source is even more difficult.

Like Zhao Laizi, he can circle a small hill and raise hundreds of lambs at a time. Looking at the entire Changliu Town, he can't find a second one.

Most of the mutton business was done by Zhao Laizi alone.The people on the other side just sip the soup and pick up some leaks, they can't make much money, and there is no one to support them at all.

What's more, mutton is more expensive than pork, and fewer people can afford it. Except for a small number of people who buy mutton from Zhao Zizi's family, most of the mutton is sold to other towns, and even sent to Qingcheng.If even Zhao Laizi can't supply it, it will be even more difficult to replace it with someone else.

Zhao Laizi's ewes are weaned, and Ji Wei's shop can't keep going.He was so anxious that he couldn't sleep at night, he was so busy that he didn't touch the ground, for several days, he ran around looking for people during the day, and slept in the back room of the shop at night, never even returning to the old house in the West Lane.

But even so, I still haven't found a suitable family.

"Zhao Hu, send someone to deliver this cake." Ji Wei took the time to finish today's cake order, and found an empty space to sit.

The weather is hot, and the temperature of the bread kiln is extremely high. He has only made cakes here for more than half an hour, and his hot hair is stuck to his forehead, as if he was fished out of the water.

Ah Qiu carried a kettle and a tea bowl, and shuttled among the men to deliver water.

Turned around, just stopped to rest, swept to Ji Wei who was sitting on the ground in front of the house, ran towards him immediately, poured a bowl of water to him, "Brother Ji, drink a bowl of water."

"Thanks."

"Do you want to take a rest? It's so hot, it's not good if you get heatstroke."

"I have rough skin and thick flesh, so I can't do it." Ji Wei drank the water and handed the large enamel bowl to Aqiu.

"Mianmian is not at home, and you haven't returned to West Alley for quite some time." Ah Qiu squatted beside Ji Wei, counted with his fingers, and lived in the back room for five days anyway, "This place is simple and simple, and you can live there for a while." It's just a few days, long-term stay is not suitable, brother Ji is better to go home and rest. In case you get tired and fall ill, there is no one around you who can take care of you."

"I'm a big man with good hands and feet, so I don't need anyone to take care of me? What's more, you can live in it, so why can't I live in it." Ji Wei stood up, patted the little cockroach under him, and let him Ah Qiu sat down.

"Your face is pale, and you sweat a lot. You should take a good rest than me. Sit down."

Ah Qiu also felt that his footsteps were weak, and he sat on the twig without any further excuses, feeling a little embarrassed, "I had nowhere to go, if Brother Ji hadn't taken me in, I would have lived on the street, so I have no right to dislike me ?”

Speaking of this matter, I have to mention the dispute between Mao Lintie and Ah Qiuchu when he came to help the North Street shop.

Mao's house was on the other side of East Street. It wasn't too far to go to North Street, but it was definitely not close either.

Regardless of Mao Lintie's objection, Aqiu resolutely ran from home to North Street to work, had a falling out with Mao Lintie once, took the wages and did not even return home, and lived in the room behind the shop to make ends meet. sleep.

After a few days, there was no one in the house, and Mao Lintie couldn't bear it any longer. He came to beg Aqiu to go back, but he didn't dare to yell and scold him at will. He even lowered his voice by three degrees on weekdays. He often catches fish and shrimps for Ah Qiu, and buys pork to please him.

Since then, Ah Qiu's life at home has really been nourished a lot.

"It can make you husband and wife more harmonious, such small things are not worth mentioning." Ji Wei looked Aqiu up and down, and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, you seem to have gained some flesh these days, and the food seems to be good. "

Ah Qiu looked down at his abdomen, feeling a little distressed, "I don't know why, the weather is hot recently, I don't have much appetite, but I still gained a lot of meat."

"It's good to grow some meat, too thin and easy to get sick."

"Don't laugh at me, the meat has grown a lot, and my family should dislike me."

"After the last time, Brother Mao still dares to despise you?"

Ji Wei blinked at Aqiu, and joked, "It is not advisable to be thin and healthy. It is best to be healthy. Look at Mianmian's fragile appearance before. I specially raised some meat for him. I don't know how these days Did it fall..."

As soon as the words were spoken, Ji Wei fell silent.

It's fine if you don't mention it, but as long as you think of the young man who has been away from home for many days and has never seen each other, the emotions that have been suppressed in the past few days burst out of the shackles in an instant, and weigh heavily on Ji Wei's heart.

He sighed unconsciously, feeling a little melancholy, "It seems like it's been more than a month since he left."

Aqiu, who was sitting next to him, was startled, looked up at the sky, counted silently in his heart, and finally said for a long time: "But Mianmian just went to the county school to study for less than ten days, you remember wrongly."
