"Yes, yes, why don't you want this good thing? You, Brother Da Niu, can only go to the town to make some money during the Chinese New Year, and you are at home the rest of the time! But Xiaoci, you are too real-minded. We hire people in the village for ten cents.
That's enough!" Jiang Guirong said with heart and lungs!
Although there is a crazy rumor in the village that the Dashan family sold Ganoderma lucidum and got eight taels of silver, they still have to save some money!
Jiang Ci smiled and shook his head,
It’s only twenty cents a day, which is just a drop of money for her!
Then he walked from the house to the yard: "Grandma Qiao, you raise so many chickens at home, do you also store a lot of eggs?"
"Yeah! But these people don't have enough food to eat, let alone chickens, so I've been saving these eggs for half a month, and there are only about 60 of them. I'll sell them in the town after a few days when the eggs reach 100!"
Then Qiao Huirong secretly grabbed a few eggs from the kitchen, and looked at her daughter-in-law specifically to make sure she wasn't looking in her direction before stuffing them into Jiang Ci's hands: "Xiao Ci, take these five back and eat them first.
!If you don’t have enough, come see Grandma Qiao again.”
Jiang Ci pushed back: "Grandma Qiao, what I mean is that the eggs you saved don't need to be sold in the town. I just want to use the eggs to make some food. You can sell them all to me! Just follow the price of one egg in the town.
Eggs are 2 cents, please help me deliver the eggs to my house, and I’ll ask my mother to get the money for you!”
Qiao Huirong tried to persuade Jiang Ci, but Jiang Ci refused. Jiang Ci had a firm look on his face. In the end, Qiao Huirong had no choice but to agree. After Jiang Ci left,
As soon as Qiao Huirong entered the room, she suddenly saw a bowl of meat on the table. She immediately caught up with Jiang Ci and said, "Xiao Ci, you forgot the meat!"
"My mother asked you to bring this to Grandma Qiao. This meat is brought from the mountains. It's not worth much, so feel free to eat it!"
Just when Qiao Huirong wanted to make further excuses,
Wu Niu has poked his little head out of the house: "Milk! This meat is so delicious~"
Seeing the greedy look on her grandson's face with his nose raised, Qiao Huirong's heart suddenly softened.
Jiang Ci smiled, said hello to Qiao Huirong and left.
After returning home, Jiang Ci worked hard for a while and finally gathered the materials.
And Guixiang, who had just paid 130 yuan to buy eggs, was trembling with distress at this moment: "Xiao Ci, our family can't eat so many eggs!"
"Mom, if we want to eat, we should wait until I go up the mountain to find wild eggs. The wild eggs are a little small, but they have high nutritional value! I want to make these domestic eggs into preserved eggs!"
"Preserved eggs? What are preserved eggs?" Qian Guixiang asked with a question mark.
"You'll know when I do it!" Jiang Ci raised his eyebrows.
Preserved eggs mixed with tofu, preserved eggs in cold salad, preserved cucumber eggs, preserved egg and lean meat porridge...these dishes are long-lasting dishes on people's dining tables.
And now, it wants to be the first to earn the first pot of gold from preserved eggs.
Jiang Ci poured water into a large pot, then put quicklime in and stirred;
After the lime is stirred evenly, pour in the plant ash, yellow mud and salt and continue stirring. After it cools down completely, add the eggs into the pot.
Dip the eggs in the pot with lime paste, use a wire to make a circle and fish them out. This will make the lime on the surface of the eggs more even and the color better.
Then put the egg covered with lime paste into the sawdust, covering it with sawdust, and do not let the lime be exposed.
After finishing all this, Jiang Ci carefully placed the eggs covered with sawdust in a clay pot, and finally sealed them.
The whole journey takes less than half an hour,
"Is this...is it done?" Qian Guixiang was a little unbelievable,
"Yeah! Leave it for about 7-10 days and then you can eat it!" Jiang Ci put the pottery pot in the kitchen casually, and then went to the courtyard to teach Xiao Yunduo how to prepare the medicinal ingredients!
Qian Guixiang looked at the clay pot that had lost its paint. It contained her 130 pieces of silver. If Xiao Anzi accidentally tripped and fell, all the eggs would be broken.
So Qian Guixiang carefully moved the clay pot to her house secretly.
This was the first time in her life that she had seen so many eggs! They were all her own, so she had to protect them well.
"What is that you are holding in your hand? Like a treasure?" Shen Dashan looked at his wife's mysterious look and couldn't help but ask!
"What does it mean to be like a treasure? This is a treasure! Anyway, don't worry about it!"
………………
At 6 o'clock the next day:
Jiang Ci, Shen Shuan and Daniu pushed the cart into the town. As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the town, they met the Lan Yin trio again!
"Sister! Have you bought a scooter?"
"Well! It's more convenient to have a car!"
After that, Daniel pushed the trolley to the stall on East Street and found that there were already about ten people waiting there.
"Oh, you're here! Come on, come on, give me four pounds first, I'm going to go to my parents' house!"
"Hey! Why should I serve it to you first? I came earlier than you, so you should serve it to me first!"
"If you are quarreling, go to the back and quarrel! Don't delay me from buying chestnuts! My old lady likes to eat roasted chestnuts without eating!"
These dozen people had a quarrel over sugar-roasted chestnuts.
Daniel was so shocked that he was numb! How could the townspeople with such high eyes appreciate the craftsmanship of their farmers? And they were willing to wait for them on the roadside just for the sake of food?
When he was about to ask Jiang Ci, he saw that Jiang Ci had been held back by a man in silk who looked like a steward.
Da Niu let out a breath of air-conditioning. Did he read it correctly? The steward in this town, who was so awesome all day long, actually talked to Xiao Ci with a smile on his face, as if he was discussing something?
Looking at the three brothers who had just met at the entrance of the town, they seemed not surprised at all by this situation. Not only did they set up the stall skillfully, but they also chatted skillfully with those waiting.
Daniel instantly felt that his world had been overturned.
He only heard his mother say that Xiao Ci was doing well in business in the town. He thought that her mother was exaggerating at the time. But now it seems that that was not an exaggeration. That was modesty!
Just when Daniel was repairing his world view,
Jiang Ci had already discussed the fruit business with others, and the person who came was surprisingly the housekeeper who came to buy apples and strawberries yesterday.
He looked anxious: "Girl, do you still have the strawberries and red apples sent by your relatives at home?"
"Red Fuji apple!" Jiang Ci pointed out!
The housekeeper was enlightened: "Yes, yes, they are red Fuji apples and strawberries. To be honest, girl, I brought these two fruits back yesterday, and all the owners in the house were not satisfied! So I want to find the girl."
Order some more fruit!”
Jiang Ci slightly curled her lips, not surprised at all. Strawberries and apples are popular tastes. Very few people who have eaten them don't like them.
What should I do if I love eating? Of course rich people will try their best to get it!
This just suits her heart, because she originally used the name of "Fruit Limited Edition" to seduce big customers~
However, Jiang Ci still pretended to think about it: "My relatives in the capital know that I want to sell those fruits, but they got a lot for my family two days ago. I wonder how many do you want, housekeeper?"
When he heard that there were more, the butler's eyes became even more eager: "Our old lady is celebrating her 70th birthday tomorrow, and we are inviting many guests, so we would like 300 jins of strawberries and 400 jins of apples. Do you know if there is a girl?"
