If there is one of the hottest businesses in Wanghai Town recently, it must be the mobile fan stall in Linjiazhuang.
The price of a pound of vermicelli is 38 cents, which is naturally too high for ordinary people to afford. But for gentry, landlords and rich farmers, it is an acceptable price.
People in the Tang Dynasty loved to hold various banquets and poetry gatherings when they had nothing to do. Naturally, there was a lot of demand for dishes.
The price and positioning of Sweet Potato Vermicelli are just right enough to enter the door of wealth and ordinary alleys.
In addition to selling in bulk, Linjiazhuang's fans also sold them to restaurants and inns in Wanghai Town and Xiaoxi Town through Sun Chueyao and his men, starting from twenty kilograms and priced at thirty-five cents per kilogram.
Compared to selling in bulk, large orders from restaurants are obviously more worthy of the effort.
Linjiazhuang easily opened the door to the market by using the marketing strategy of buying fans and giving away recipes.
Especially the steamed scallops with garlic vermicelli, which not only sold vermicelli, but also turned scallops that had little sales in the market and were usually picked up by children from the sea to feed poultry into a popular item!
Lin Wanwan, who had already prepared the recipe when she came up with it, naturally reminded the fishing clan members to catch scallops.
In the past, shellfish were not sold at high prices, and they still accounted for their weight. Sea dwellers did not like to fish for them.
But this time, after being sold by Linjiazhuang fans and the new dish "Steamed Scallops with Garlic Vermicelli" launched by major restaurants, scallops suddenly appeared on the dining tables of the Chinese people.
Because everyone had no idea about shellfish in the past, there are a lot of shell resources on the offshore seabed, and scallops are no exception.
The fishermen in Linjiazhuang took the big target specially built by Uncle San, put on the trawl net, drove the boat a few nautical miles offshore, and fished out the trawl net and the big target. They could catch tens of thousands of them in one net!
The sale of scallops is a popular choice among fans. Because of the large quantity, they cannot be sold at a high price.
But if you can't catch scallops, it's a no-cost business. As long as you drive a boat and fish with a little effort, you can exchange for money. What don't the sea dwellers want?
At first, Linjiazhuang was the only place selling scallops at the fishing boat pier that had the most goods. Gradually, the wind started to blow.
What the Chinese people lack most is the speed to follow the trend. If you can exchange money, everyone will definitely pay attention.
Soon, there were so many scallops on the docks and in the market that you could buy a pound for a penny.
Because it is so cheap, many ordinary people have begun to buy it. If they can't afford the popular new dish Steamed Scallops with Garlic Vermicelli, they can just eat a scallop.
Three thousand catties of fans may sound like a lot, but in fact they are not sold at all in the market. They are all sold out in a few days. The biggest customers are restaurants and noble houses.
After selling out the sweet potato vermicelli, it was naturally time to divide the money again.
This time the money was divided in direct proportion to the sweet potatoes brought out by each family. Each household could get anywhere from two to three and a half guan, which really made people happy.
Those families whose houses were blown down by the hurricane and who were temporarily living in makeshift thatched houses immediately started planning to build new houses.
The green brick houses of the "demolished households" in the village are the most enviable thing.
Compared to the stone houses with poor lighting, rustic shapes and low roofs, the blue brick houses are much classier!
The shadow caused by the hurricane dissipated in an instant because of the hot sales of sweet potato fans.
The entire Linjiazhuang is now full of energy, looking forward to making another fortune from cotton and then starting to build new houses together!
Lin Wanwan, the person who taught the women in Linjiazhuang how to make sweet potato vermicelli, once again received a great boost in her clan's prestige.
When the fans in Linjiazhuang were almost sold out, the sale of fans also began to appear in Xiaoxi Town.
This time, of course, it was Xiao Chong who taught me.
The reaction of wealthy businessmen was not slow. Although they did not catch up with the sweet potato seedlings provided by the county government on credit, they could buy them with money!
As for how to make fans, it's too easy to steal it, just bribe a few people - because Xiao Chong didn't consider the issue of confidentiality at all when he taught it to the common people.
Xiao Chong is the head of a county, not a village chief or clan leader. All the people in Luang County, whether rich or poor, are under his rule.
Although he will not cater to the squires, nobles and wealthy businessmen like others, there is no reason to suppress them. Otherwise, where will he go to gather wool and cut leeks in the future?
Recently, the county government has taken preventive measures before the hurricane and disaster relief measures after the hurricane, and now coupled with the spread of sweet potato fans, Xiao Chong's reputation in Luang County is unprecedented, and more and more people are setting up longevity plaques for him.
Xiao Chong came to Luan County as the county magistrate in just one year, but he already gained such prestige among the people that he had to say something strong.
The Wang Dudu of the Yuezhou Dudu Mansion (who also serves as the governor of Yuezhou and the governor of the Tang Dynasty. It is very common for the two governors to become one). Looking at the "war" report handed over by Xiao Chong, he couldn't help but sigh that the Xiao family is indeed a famous family.
The direct descendants are all so outstanding!
This Xiao Chong is clearly the hidden dragon in the abyss, Tengbi Jiutian!
Mrs. Wang, who brought snacks to Governor Wang, had been listening to her husband recite the name "Xiao Zifang" recently, and she couldn't help but feel moved when she thought that she still had a 28-year-old daughter who was not married.
If you miss such a quick son-in-law riding a dragon, there may not be another one.
Being able to marry an outstanding member of the Lanling Xiao family is definitely a sure thing.
The prefecture of Yuezhou is in Kuaiji County, one day's journey from Luan County. If you hurry up, you can get there in half a day, and it is not difficult to contact him.
But, how should we do this beautifully and safely?
"Husband, is this Xiao Zifang engaged?"
Governor Wang raised his head and looked at his wife in surprise, and said: "I don't know whether she is engaged or not. I heard that she has not married yet. What, do you want..."
Mrs. Wang smiled: "I have been hearing you praise this Xiao Zifang, husband. He must be a very outstanding young man. I thought, wouldn't it be a good match for our Huan'er?"
Hearing this, Governor Wang touched his beard, his face showing deep contemplation.
Lin Wanwan returned to modern times after finishing her business in Luan County.
Because she has stayed in Datang for a long time now, the time difference between modern times and Datang is getting bigger and bigger.
I obviously stayed in Luang County for many days and did a lot of things, but when I returned to modern times, time had only passed not long ago.
Every time she returns to modern times, Lin Wanwan has to look at the calendar to calculate the time, so as not to get confused.
After arriving at the company, Lin Wanwan discovered that Han Qingxue had returned to work today. It had only been less than half a month since her operation.
Lin Wanwan didn't want her to come back to work in the company so soon. After all, ectopic pregnancy surgery was very damaging to her vitality, and she should take a month's rest. On the contrary, Han Qingxue's career ambitions suddenly exploded, and she had to cancel her sick leave and come back.
Lin Wanwan advised her not to be brave. If she felt unwell, she could continue to take sick leave and go back to rest.
