"We have also thought about it. Your uncle Wujin can't stop driving. If we don't make money, he can still work and he won't be unable to eat. The chickens and pigs in the family also need someone to take care of them. Besides,
Your Uncle Wujin has to eat when he comes back in the evening, so Lanhua has to stay at home. It’s just me and Shitou to set up the stall, and I’m afraid we won’t be able to do it.”
"It just so happens that my brother from my mother's side has a lot of strength, and my father and eldest brother at home are also busy. I plan to ask him to help!"
"Aqiu, didn't you say that the jelly can't be left overnight and must be made and sold on the same day? I got up early and Shitou and I were preparing to set up the stall, so I asked my natal brother to come back so that we don't delay things!"
"In this way, we can do business one day plus one night, and we can also make more money."
Manju said and smiled again, "Although it is harder, as long as I can earn money, I will earn enough money as soon as possible. When the time comes, I can rent a small shop. That will be much better. In short, there is no business."
Isn’t it hard up front?”
Song Qiu couldn't help but sigh in his heart as he listened.
After thinking for a while, he said: "Since we have to sell it at the night market, let's sell another cold shrimp! Just make it with the jelly every day. The jelly is directly mixed with seasonings. The cold shrimp is also simple, just scoop it out and add it.
Just brown sugar water. You guys also had it last year, Aunt Manju. You just need ice cubes. I’m familiar with the market. It only costs 250 yuan to buy the cheapest ice cube. It can be used all the time. And ice cubes are
Twenty cents a piece is enough to use at most two pieces of ice a day."
The left and right ones are also served with jelly noodles. If you add some cold shrimps, it can be regarded as more food and more income.
She promised that the hot and sour noodles, jelly noodles, and cold shrimps were the first in Baishui Town, and the jelly noodles and cold shrimps were currently only sold in her tea shed, so the business would definitely be good.
"Okay! Then we will sell these three kinds of food!" Man Ju is also full of confidence. She will not talk about hot and sour noodles. She has never seen jelly before, but the cold shrimp she had last year was so delicious.
Food is always easy to sell!
If it were her, she would buy it!
"Yesterday we rented a stall with the clerk in charge of the market and the night market. We also rented two rooms in the courtyard, one for living and one for storing things. We will go to Baishui Town later.
Go there and buy a small pot, bowls and chopsticks, etc., and then we can officially open the stall!"
Song Qiu nodded, "Then let's talk about the purchase now."
"Let's talk about hot and sour noodles first. The price of vermicelli here is thirty cents per catty. Sauce, red oil and vegetable buns are available in large and small portions. Like other vendors who specialize in hot and sour noodles,
It is bought in small portions. A jar of sauce is 40 renminbi, a jar of red oil is 100 renminbi, and a package of vegetable wraps is 15 renminbi. This amount can roughly serve fifty or sixty bowls.
One pound of vermicelli can be used to cook eight bowls of hot and sour vermicelli. Calculated as fifty-six bowls, if you get seven pounds of vermicelli, the purchase price will be 365 Wen."
"If you sell a bowl for eight cents, fifty-six bowls can be sold for four hundred and forty-eight cents, making a profit of eighty-three cents!"
"This is also the purchase price and profit of other hawkers. I told Shitou first that I will give you a profit on the purchase price. You can't make any profit from the thirty cents per pound of vermicelli, so I really can't give you much, at most.
One penny, you can order more sauce and red oil, I’ll give you thirty-five penny for the sauce, and eighty penny for the red oil.”
"In this way, for every fifty-six bowls you sell, you can earn one hundred and fifteen cents!"
"As for the cold shrimps, I will give you two cents per catty for the purchase price. One catty can make three bowls. You can make the brown sugar water yourself. One catty of brown sugar can make a lot of brown sugar water. A bowl of cold shrimps is sold for three cents, and it can be halved.
earn."
"There is only one jelly left, and I will give you a purchase price of two cents per catty. The main seasoning is red oil. The remaining soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, etc., you can buy it yourself. I will teach you the amount of seasoning. I plan to
If you sell a bowl for five cents, you can do the same. In this way, you can make a profit of two cents per bowl."
"Since you plan to go out to the stall the day after tomorrow, I will tell the inn to prepare it tomorrow. It will be dark the day after tomorrow, so you can come and do it."
Man Ju and Zhou Shitou both listened attentively. After Song Qiu finished speaking, he stopped and nodded: "Okay! That's really troublesome for you, Ah Qiu!"
Man Ju smiled, "I'm still saying the same thing. When I make some money, I'll ask Shitou to treat you to dinner!"
The stall was to be set up the day after tomorrow, and time was still tight. The two of them didn't want to delay, so they quickly got up and left to go to Baishui Town to buy things.
Song Qiu nodded and sent the two of them out, "You have time to come over tomorrow and I'll teach you how to make seasonings and cook hot and sour noodles!"
…
The Zhou family was also determined to do a good job this time. To this end, Manju gritted her teeth and took out five taels of silver as capital, bought a set of household items, and rented a stall for a month.
Just do it. On the second day, I came to work with Song Qiu step by step. After watching how to cook the hot and sour noodles, mix the jelly, and boil the brown sugar water, I went back to drive the oxcart with great interest and a little nervousness.
Went to Baishui Town.
Of course, I also took away the vermicelli that came in.
On the first day of the stall, they decided to go with the whole family.
On Friday, I was one step behind. On the second day, when the sky got slightly brighter and the jelly noodles and shrimps were ready at the inn, I took him to Baishui Town.
…
Here at the inn, the weather is starting to get warmer, and vegetables and meats must be kept in ice. She has bought enough ice cubes. From now on, she will buy ice cubes every day and start selling cold shrimps and iced fermented glutinous rice.
, plus a new food jelly.
Wait until the watermelon comes out later, and then serve the iced watermelon.
Everything is done step by step and in an orderly manner.
And these days after moving into a new house for the first time, I feel pretty good.
I live in a big house, and the suite has a lot of space. I can plan or think about things in the study, with a large arched window on half the wall open, and outside the window is a piece of freshly grown pomegranates.
The desk is covered with a carpet. I sit cross-legged behind the desk and look at the scenery outside the window, which is comfortable and pleasant.
In the afternoon, you can also stroll to the small living room on the third floor and sit on the Arhat couch with old Yuan to talk and talk.
In the evening, when the lights were turned on in the living room, we had dinner at the round table in the side hall.
After dinner, I accompanied Mr. Yuan to visit the vegetable garden and garden, and then strolled back to the courtyard of Sijin embroidery building.
Living such a day is very comfortable and stable.
But to support this kind of comfort and stability, abundance is indispensable.
So Song Qiu made plans and put the trip to Qingping Mansion on the agenda.
Move towards your career!
The most important thing in her career ambitions, which requires time and energy, is the service stack.
This is also what she wants to do most.
So, on the second day after Grandpa Song Qiu celebrated his life sacrifice, the sky was slightly bright, and a carriage, watched by Old Yuan, slowly descended the gentle slope and headed out of the village.
