Ginger's grocery store

Chapter 3 The First Delivery

In the combined decades of life before and after, Jiang Yuan has never been teased by a beautiful young lady. He was embarrassed and didn't know where to put his gaze. A blush appeared on his shy face, and his clear and lingling eyes were everywhere. move.bookmark our website

Seeing Jiang Yuan's shy look, Zhu Niang laughed so much that her branches trembled, "What a cute little brother, he's still a baby, why don't you stay today." The finger lifting Jiang Yuan's chin moved down, Landing on the neckline of Jiang Yuan's T-shirt, hooking the edge of the neckline, Zhu Niang said seductively: "My sister will teach you how to be an adult."

Jiang Yuan was even more embarrassed, and grabbed two hands in the void with no place to rest, "Sister Lao is concerned, if you are a handsome guy, you are still the one in my heart, you don't need to force me to stay overnight, I will stay by myself Yes. Adults, you know."

Zhu Niang shrugged regretfully, and let go of the fingers hooking Jiang Yuan's neckline, "It's a pity, you will never have the chance to try my sister's eighteen martial arts in your life."

After being free, Jiang Yuan jumped off the high stool as if his ass was on fire, and stepped back a few steps, "I appreciate Zhu Niang's kindness, haha, I appreciate it." Weeping in his heart, he really wanted to post on the Internet immediately Help: There is an unrestrained employee who just wants to flirt with me, what should I do?

It's not that Zhu Niang really wants to do something shameful with Jiang Yuan as an adult, but she just wants to see Jiang Yuan's funny reaction.He knocked on the edge of the counter with a cigarette stick in his hand, and the fine ash fell down in a flutter, dissipating into nothingness in the falling midair.After extinguishing the cigarette rod, Zhu Niang tied her long hair loosely behind her head with the cigarette rod behind her backhand, and scooped up her free hands to her side, and a fat cat that wanted to escape fell into her arms.

Zhu Niang scratched Da Jin's chin and stroked his chubby belly. The loveless Da Jin pleased her and let out a provocative laugh.

Seeing Dajin being touched by Zhu Niang, Jiang Yuan, who was standing by the shelf, gave him a sympathetic look, but it was a pity that he was powerless to help, let Dajin Yihu take on this heavy work.

It was already seven o'clock when Jiang Yuan came out from the backyard, and another 10 minutes had passed after the fight just now. At this moment, his internal organs were singing empty plans, and he was thinking about what to eat. The way to solve his hunger in Kunwuju before was to order takeaway , but although the takeaway tastes good, it always gives people an unhealthy feeling of heavy oil and salt, and you will get tired after eating a few meals.

The blue calico door curtain beside her was lifted, and Cangguan Xiaoman floated out quietly, with a sleepy expression on her transparently white face, she said faintly, "I'm hungry."

"Sister Xiaoman is hungry, good news, when was the last time you were hungry?" Zhu Niang, who was sitting on a high stool with her cat in her arms, turned around, the concave "S" shape was just right and perfect, a natural beauty This has a spokesperson.

"20 years ago." Xiaoman's erratic voice sounded faintly again.

"It's been so long." Zhu Niang sighed, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, there was an impenetrable depth at this moment, emotions came and went quickly, and soon disappeared without a trace. "Order takeaway, order what you like."

With a sullen face, Xiaoman said grimly, "I don't want to eat takeaway."

"Meow, I don't want to eat either." Da Jin raised his paw in protest after being touched all over.

"That's difficult, I don't know how to cook." Zhu Niang said the truth.

Afterwards, Jiang Yuan, the new shop owner who has no sense of presence and has always been a wallflower, was stared at by three pairs of eyes, and the pressure was a bit high.Forget it, he was hungry anyway, "I can cook, where is the kitchen?"

"Follow me." As if waiting for Jiang Yuan to say this, Xiaoman immediately opened the door curtain, and changed his attitude of being mourned to actively lead Jiang Yuan.

Lowering his head and walking under the door curtain, Jiang Yuan thought he would see the soft white fog again, but he didn't want to step into the kitchen.The kitchen is big, and the windows are bright and clean, but it's dark outside the window and you can't see any scenery.The kitchen still retains the old style, no range hood, no natural gas stove, no induction cooker... only the old rustic stove that Jiang Yuan had seen in his grandmother's house, with dry firewood piled behind the old stove.

There are cutting boards, kitchen knives and other things on the long table in the middle of the kitchen. There are three large jars near the window, one filled with water and two filled with rice noodles.

There is a cabinet on the wall of the window, and through the hollow carved cabinet door, it can be vaguely distinguished that there are dishes and other things inside.

There was a vegetable basket on the long table. The fresh shepherd's purse, Malan heads, wild onions and other things in the basket looked so familiar. They were obviously picked by Jiang Yuan when digging the ground and piled up together. On the side, I forgot to take it when I came out.

The gloomy expression on Xiaoman's palm-sized face remained unchanged, but the longing revealed in his round eyes couldn't be concealed no matter what.Jiang Yuan couldn't help laughing, she was about the same age as her own sister, so what if she died a hundred and eighty years ago, she was still a girl of sixteen or seventeen.

"The ingredients are not complete, so let's eat simple tonight. How about noodles with shepherd's purse and boiled Malan head in cold water? I think there are eggs, so scrambled eggs with green onions will be fine." Jiang Yuan has already sorted out the messy dishes Wild vegetables stacked in a basket.

Xiaoman looked at him, nodded in a daze, and said blankly: "You and the boss are like each other. For a moment, the boss is the boss, and no one else can imitate it."

The boss that Xiaoman is talking about is the predecessor that Dajin said, the former owner who was a stunning and beautiful person, who has been guarding Kunwuju for nearly 500 years.In comparison, Jiang Yuan, an insignificant mortal, is indeed very inconspicuous, and cannot be compared with that person.

Jiang Yuan asked: "What kind of person is he?"

"The boss is the best person in the world. He is as gentle and elegant as a beautiful jade. He is respected both for his character and talent." Xiao Man moved a chair from nowhere and sat on the side, propping his head and looking at Jiang. Yuanhe noodles, wake up noodles, crack eggs, "The boss can also cook, it's delicious. After the boss is gone, I can't eat anything."

"Then try what I made." Jiang Yuan is optimistic by nature, and he can survive even the greatest difficulties. Now he is just being ignored by the shop assistants everywhere. He doesn't care. After a long time, he will know Jiang Yuan He will also be a qualified Kunwuju master.

"Okay." Xiaoman said in a weak voice, she was a ghost, and her tone could not be relaxed.

After the dough wakes up, it can be rolled into dough and cut into noodles. Sprinkle white (flour) on the slender noodles and shake it off a few times to prevent the noodles from sticking.At this time, the hot water in the pot is also boiling, and the noodles can be served.

The old stove Jiang Yuan knows how to cook. He used to cook for his grandmother when he was a child. He learned his cooking skills from his grandmother. After rebirth, he has never visited his elderly grandmother.In her previous life, she was hit by the death of her daughter, son-in-law and granddaughter one after another. The tough grandmother survived and accompanied Jiang Yuan through the darkest period of her life.

Later, he was disfigured and thrown abroad. I really don't know how he lost his grandmother.

Ahh, I cannot think.

Jiang Yuankuang shook his head, and once again, he would never let the tragedy that happened in the family happen.

Da Jin once said that Kunwuju is in the five elements and is detached from the five elements. The red dust in the world will change the moment he becomes the master of Kunwuju. In Kunwu Residence, you can influence the fate of your family.

There is a lot of floating powder in the hand-rolled noodles, and the soup will become cloudy and sticky after being put into the water, which will affect the taste, so Jiang Yuan also boiled water in another pot, put soy sauce and fine salt in the water, boil it to get the most original soy sauce For noodle soup, when eating, drizzle salad oil on the soup surface and sprinkle with chopped scallions.

The green part of shallots is put in the egg liquid and scrambled eggs.

After blanching, Malantou has a strange taste, which will be unaccustomed to those who taste it for the first time. Jiang Yuan chopped garlic, added sesame oil, sprinkled salt and sugar, and the taste is fresh.

"Wow, it looks delicious." Xiaoman leaned over and lowered his head to smell the aroma of the food, "It smells so comfortable."

"It sure doesn't taste bad."

Xiaoman took a pair of chopsticks out of the chopstick holder, put a pair of thin noodles into his mouth, chewed carefully, resisted the urge to praise, wrinkled his slender eyebrows, and said against his will: "Well, the taste is not bad, it's not as good as the one made by the boss. I think what you make will be delicious. It must be the rice noodles left by the boss, so the taste is as good as the one made by the boss. It's pretty similar."

I was so hungry that I couldn't help but ate several mouthfuls of Jiangyuan noodles after they came out of the pot. Hearing Xiaoman said that the ingredients used were old products from 20 years ago, the noodles in his mouth almost squirted.I chewed it again nervously, but I couldn't taste any rotten or musty taste. The fresh one seemed to be ground into flour from wheat that had just been crushed from the ground.

I feel comforted in my heart that Kunwuju is different.

The food was served outside and ate with everyone. Although Zhu Niang and Da Jin didn't say anything, judging by the speed at which they ate, they were very satisfied.

Halfway through eating, Xuanjian, who was quietly sitting on Jiang Yuan's earlobe, suddenly made a movement, flew up to the open space, hung in mid-air with his mouth facing down, his body became bigger and bigger, from the mung bean-like earrings It became a large black hole with a diameter of nearly two meters.

Rumbling--

An undercurrent and dull sound came from the Xuanjian, but a moment later, a lump-like thing fell down, hit the ground and jumped twice, then calmly remained motionless.This seemed to be a signal gun for the beginning, and a large number of "seed players" rushed in behind, scrambling to get out of Xuanjian.

An inch-long iron rod, a zhang-eight Fangtian painted halberd, a pearl the size of a longan's eye, a tattered array flag with the word "Ming" barely visible, a pile of bluestone bricks that I don't know what they are... soon A mountain was piled up on the ground, exuding cool water vapor.

Xuan Jian shrunk as if hiccupped, and then shrunk again, and flew to Jiang Yuan's ear, rubbed him affectionately on his face, and then stuck to his earlobe, looking like a dead thing again.

"Jiang Yuan saw the things on the ground, right? This is the first time Xuanjian spit out something after you entered Kunwuju. These are the goods of Kunwuju. The third test of your probationary period is to be able to quickly identify What are the names of these goods, where they come from, and what are their functions." The shopkeeper god beast took the opportunity to teach the intern shopkeeper, "For this, you have to memorize all kinds of ancient books, and I have prepared them for you..."

Zhu Niang sneered, "Oh, you prepared it?"

Da Jin jumped, "What's the matter, what's the matter, I also gave a lot of references, okay?"

Jiang Yuan didn't know what charade they were playing, but it definitely had nothing to do with his test.

"The book list has been made for you." Da Jin didn't focus on what he had prepared, "You follow the book list, and I will check it every once in a while. The book list is in the drawer under the counter. help yourself."

Jiang Yuan searched under the counter according to his words, and he found a hidden small drawer. When he opened it, there was a roll of cloth inside. After opening it, an excellent thin gold body appeared in front of his eyes. Jiang Yuan secretly praised: good words.

The good characters were covered with four or five meters long cloth, and Jiang Yuan felt dizzy when he saw it. My God, he wanted to read so many books——"Shan Hai Jing", "Huai Nan Zi", "Bao Pu Zi", "Huang Di Nei Jing", In addition to familiar ancient books such as "Compendium of Materia Medica", there are also "Chinese Folklore Classics of the [-]th Century", "The Origin of Totems and Chinese Culture", "Sun Worship", "The Great Dictionary of Chinese Mythology"... What are these?

Do you need to learn about ancient and modern times and understand the millennium?

All the books on the book list are as tall as Jiang Yuan.

Zhu Niang leaned over and stroked the corner of Jiang Yuan's twitching mouth, "Poor baby, it's not easy to be the master of Kunwuju."

Jiang Yuan took a deep breath, rolled up the cloth and said, "Give it a try, you won't be able to pass and go back to your hometown." It's just talking, Jiang Yuan is not someone who gives up lightly.

"Hehe, if you don't pass, you will die." Da Jin didn't like to hear dejected words.

Jiang Yuan said mournfully, "I'm not very smart, I can't remember what to do, and it's hard to find all the books."

Da Jin jumped up and waved his paw heavily and gave Jiang Yuan a hairy chestnut, "He is not healthy and his brain is not good. Why did Xuan Jian fall in love with you? Are you a pig!! I am so angry, please read the book carefully." , click the bibliography on the silk book with your finger, and this book will appear on the silk book. I will check once every five days, if you can’t recite it, hehe, you are finished.”

The atmosphere was a little stiff, and the "ding dong" sound from the computer broke the dullness in the grocery store.

Zhu Niang went over to look, "A customer asked for a piece of nuts from Deng Lin. It is an urgent item and needs to be delivered. The delivery address is very close. It is in the community near the south gate of the University City."

When it comes to urgent delivery, I have to introduce the sales method of Kunwuju. Kunwuju uses a combination of online and offline methods to sell goods. Previously, Hu Meili came to buy breast wraps, which was the sales model of offline physical stores. Zhuzhu/Zhu Niang is responsible for the online shop that is Online.

There are two ways of online delivery. Ordinary items are delivered by human courier, and urgent items need to be delivered to the door by the clerk in person. For urgent items, you have to pay double the price.Not only is the customer urgent so it is called urgent, but also the customer's location is special and must be delivered by the clerk.

Before sending urgent mail, it was usually the other two employees who hadn't shown up, and Dai Jin and Zhu Niang would also help.

"New boss, you can deliver it today, anyway, you have to go back to school, drop by." Zhu Niang stuffed the packed package into Jiang Yuan's arms, "Delivery delivery is also your test."

"The courier is delivered to the customer's hands quickly and well, and it is well received, so I will open up an acre of land to you." Da Jin looked at Jiang Yuan with an expression of earning money.

Jiang Yuan hugged the package, what else could he do, if he wanted to be a good shopkeeper of Kunwuju, he had to bear all kinds of heavy responsibilities.

…………

……

There is no room for Jiang Yuan in Kunwuju, and he is still a third-year student. He has a dormitory in the school. Every night before the gate of the dormitory area closes, he must go back. Today is only more than two hours earlier.

Raising your legs high and stepping over the threshold, you will see a tall pagoda tree. In the night, the branches stretch out to the sky like claws and claws. It is dark and frightening.

What was even more frightening was that an old man fell asleep leaning against a tree trunk, with leaves falling between his shoulders and hair. He did not know how long he had been sleeping here.

The old man is a locust tree spirit and an employee of Kunwuju. So far, Jiang Yuan doesn't know what role he plays in Kunwuju.

"Goodbye Uncle Ghost." Jiang Yuan said politely, even if he didn't get a response, he left with Da Jin on his shoulder.

Behind him, Uncle Ghost nodded his head, as if responding, and also as a normal physiological reaction when dozing off.

"It's the first time to deliver the goods. In case you, a lazy and underdeveloped guy, never return, I will follow with mercy." Da Jin put his own weight of dozens of catties on Jiang Yuan's shoulders. , the long fluffy tail flicked back and forth behind him, and his amber eyes looked curiously at the unchanging and ever-changing scenery around him. What a strange thing, it is truly miraculous.

"Then please trouble Mr. Jin." Jiang Yuan found a shared bicycle, scanned the QR code and unlocked it, and collapsed. Taking advantage of the opportunity, he took off the big gold that was pressing on his shoulder and put it in the basket of the car, along with the courier box.

Looking at Da Jin who couldn't fit in the car basket, Jiang Yuan was silent, "Nine of the ten orange cats are fat, and one is super fat." Da Jin must be dyed, he must be a big cat with white hair Orange cat!

With Dajin in the car basket, Jiang Yuan felt that the center of gravity of the front of the car was unstable and he couldn't hold it down. It shook several times and adjusted several times before it was considered stable on the road.

The address given by the guest is the south gate of the school, and the old street is the north gate of the school, one south and one north, it seems that it is good to cross through the school.In fact, there is a big lake in the middle of the school. It would be better to walk along the road outside the school wall than to ride around the lake to the south gate.

This is the old campus of Nanzhou University. The new campus was completed in the suburbs five years ago, and most of the departments have moved there. I heard reliable news that when Jiang Yuan graduates this year, his Faculty of Arts will also move. to the new campus.

The surrounding environment and the old campus complement each other. It is the old town of Nanzhou City, with old streets, old alleys and old buildings. A casual scene is full of the style of the last century.Time has slowed down here, and everything still looks like it was decades, hundreds of years ago.

Jiang Yuan was not slow, and soon approached the south gate. The feeling of this area is completely different from the old street at the north gate. Old bungalows and exquisite gardens used to be a concession, but now they live in well-off families.

"No. 18 Youyi Road, Huang Mansion."

Jiang Yuan looked for it according to the address.
