88 Chapter 88
The next day, Gu Manniang and Tang Tiezhu got up early, ate the breakfast prepared by Gu Zhaodi, and went on the road with the chestnuts fried in the evening.
Today, I still borrowed the ox cart of the Li Zheng family, and there is no way who let this village only have such an ox cart for the Li Zheng family. Today, Tang Tiezhu went to Lizheng's house to take the cattle cart as soon as he got up, and when he came back, his face was not very good-looking, and Gu Manniang didn't ask when he saw it.
When he left the village, Tang Tiezhu suddenly said, "Manniang, our family should buy a cow." ”
Tang Tiezhu's words made Gu Manniang stunned for a while, "Why did you suddenly say that you want to buy cattle?" "Buying cattle has always been a planned thing, but this is just a plan in Gu Manniang's heart and I haven't told Tang Tiezhu, I didn't expect Tang Tiezhu to suddenly come out like this today.
"It's not sudden." Tang Tiezhu paused for a moment and continued, "In the future, we will often go to Fucheng, and we will definitely not be able to do without cattle." It's not a problem to go to Lizheng's house to borrow cattle often. ”
Hearing this, Gu Manniang nodded knowingly. No wonder Tang Tiezhu went to borrow a cow and came back with such a stinky face today, thinking that the Lizheng family must have an opinion on their family often borrowing cattle.
Although every time she borrowed the cattle of the Li Zheng family, Gu Manniang gave things to the Li Zheng family when she returned the cattle. But this cow is not their own after all, if they go to Lizheng's house to borrow it once or twice, Lizheng's family must have no opinion, but like Gu Manniang, they borrowed it every few days, which is a good relationship, and there will definitely be some opinions in their hearts.
"Okay, let's go buy cattle after selling chestnuts today." Gu Manniang nodded in agreement. Anyway, this cow will have to be bought sooner or later, so it's better to buy it back early, and you don't have to trouble Lizheng's house every time.
When Tang Tiezhu heard that Gu Manniang agreed to buy the cow, his mouth couldn't help but open. If he has a cow in his own family, he doesn't have to suffer from other people's idleness.
Gu Manniang and Tang Tiezhu came to Fucheng, first went to the grocery store where they sold dry goods last time, and let the shopkeeper taste their fried chestnuts, and the shopkeeper tasted it and felt that it tasted okay, so they weighed three catties with Gu Manniang and were ready to try to sell it to see if they could sell it.
After that, Gu Manniang and the others went to the Welcome Building, originally to deliver dried mushrooms and fungus.
When the chef in the welcome building saw Gu Manniang and them, he was stunned for a long time. Gu Manniang thought that the chef had forgotten them, so she couldn't help but remind them a few more words.
The chef had forgotten about them, he just didn't expect Gu Manniang to come and sell things again so soon. Looking at the things in the baskets they carried, the chef couldn't help but wonder if there were a lot of mountain goods in the mountains now, otherwise someone like them would carry so many things in two days.
There are not too many chefs, so I just want them all. The business of their welcome building is good, plus these mountain goods are seasonal things, and they are basically gone in winter, so buy more dry goods at this time, and they can be used in winter. It won't be wasted anyway.
Gu Manniang and Tang Tiezhu were very happy when they saw that the chef had accepted their things very happily. Gu Manniang saw that the chef was so happy to buy things, so she couldn't help but bring the home-fried chestnuts to the chef. I hope that the chef can see it, and I hope that the chef will buy all the fifty catties of chestnuts they brought today.
"You made it yourself." The chef tasted one and felt that it tasted pretty good.
Gu Manniang hurriedly nodded, "This is indeed our own hype." As you know, last time we came to you to sell chestnuts on our backs, and you don't need too much in the welcome building. We still have hundreds of pounds at home, and we finally picked them off the tree, so we can't put them at home and rot. So when we went back, we tossed the chestnuts, what to boil, fry, fry, fry...... It took a lot of effort to finally think it was more delicious to stir-fry. ”
Tang Tiezhu glanced at his face and heartbeat, but he felt that Gu Manniang's words were too exaggerated, what did she have there, fried, fried, fried. She fried it directly, and didn't do anything else at all. However, Tang Tiezhu is not stupid, so naturally he will not be stupid to dismantle Gu Manniang's platform.
The chef listened to Gu Manniang's words, but he didn't take it seriously at all. He said that this fried chestnut is not very delicious, he only tasted one and knew how to make it, and guaranteed that it would be much more delicious than this when the time comes.
Gu Manniang is not professional, and there must not be much with a professional chef. So, the chef didn't take it to heart at all. In the end, I bought two catties for the sake of Gu Manniang's new method of chestnuts.
This raw chestnut is twenty-five wen a catty, this cooked Gu Manniang sells for thirty-five catty, and the extra ten wen is naturally a processing fee.
After coming out of the welcome building, Gu Manniang's whole person was not good. Thirty-five pounds of chestnuts are more expensive than meat. Originally, she was quite confident in her burning chestnuts, but when the welcome building only sold two catties, Gu Manniang had no confidence at all.
Thirty-five pounds of chestnuts are more expensive than meat. If you can afford to eat, this must be a rich person, and a poor person like Gu Manniang must be reluctant to spend dozens of dollars to buy these things. With this money, it is better to buy a pound of meat and go back to fight a dozen tooth sacrifices.
Originally, Gu Manniang planned to take this thing to the Yingbin Building, after all, the people who came to the Yingbin Building to eat were not bad for these two dollars, but unfortunately in the end, they were not able to do what Gu Manniang wanted. People don't buy it, how is it good.
"Manniang, where are we going to sell chestnuts now." All Tang Tiezhu could think of was carrying chestnuts and selling them on the street like others.
Gu Manniang glanced at Tang Tiezhu, "You and I take some alone, and we will sell them separately." Saying that, Gu Manniang gave one-third of the chestnuts to Tang Tiezhu, and said, "You don't have to ask people to buy a pound before you sell it, if people want to sell it for one or two or two, you can also sell it, one or two or two dollars." "In this era, a pound is sixteen taels.
Thirty-five wen to buy a catty, must be reluctant, but spend a few dollars to buy one, two, two or two, I believe that someone will still buy it.
"Also, if someone wants to taste it, you can also give them one to taste, but not too much." It's okay to give someone a taste, but if someone wants to take advantage, that's fine. She worked hard to get things out, but she didn't want people to eat and drink in vain.
"But what if I don't weigh it?"
Hearing this, Gu Manniang couldn't help but pat her forehead with her hand, how could she forget such an important matter, how could she do business without saying anything.
There was no way, Gu Manniang had to spend money to buy a small scale. This so-called nickname is something that weighs more than ten catties. It's not the big name that butchers use to weigh pigs.
