Chapter 53: A rake

Seeing that Jiang Xiaohu led the Yao family over, Zhao Siniang said: "Since everyone has arrived, now I will talk about the business situation of the shop today." Today, a total of 52,263 yuan was recorded, and the cost was deducted 280 yuan, which means that the net income was 42,987 yuan! ”

Although everyone has long known that because of the reward of five taels, the money earned today is definitely considerable, but when they heard Zhao Siniang report a net profit of nearly five taels, everyone still couldn't help cheering.

"Not only that, but our homemade sweet potato flour was also sold for 20 catties, 3 cents per catty, and 60 cents." Zhao Yongzhong added.

When Zhao Siniang heard this, she secretly screamed: My father! You don't have anything to mention about sweet potato flour?

"This sweet potato can't be eaten and eaten, and it can't be sold, and it looks like it's going to spoil in the cellar. Yang said with a happy face.

"Originally, I was going to make this sweet potato flour to make sweet potato noodles, but who knew that it could be sold for money alone!" Jiang also rejoiced.

"Mention this sweet potato noodle ......"

Zhao Siniang kept staring at Zhao Sanniang, and when she saw her open her mouth and said the words "sweet potato noodles", she hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter if this sweet potato noodles are made one day earlier or one day later, as long as the sweet potato flour is preserved, even if it is made in a few months!" But this sweet potato can't wait, and if you put it in the cellar for a day, it will be more bad. I think let's put down other work in the next few days, and hurry up to make powder! ”

"Well, this matter really can't be delayed, so we have to hurry up! Powder one day earlier, peace of mind one day earlier! Yang was the first to nod in agreement, and the Jiang sisters also agreed.

Hearing the sound of approval, Zhao Siniang hurriedly invited the merit and said: "In order to make the sweet potato flour out of the family as soon as possible, I also specially ordered two clay pots today. Now we don't have to worry about the lack of cylinders at home! ”

Seeing that everyone praised Zhao Siniang for considering it comprehensively, Zhao Sanniang pursed her lips and thought: Obviously, my sister was wandering around outside and delayed going home to make sweet potato noodles, for fear that I would say her, so I pulled it to the sweet potato flour. It's good now, not only is she not going to have a good time.

Seeing that Zhao Sanniang was not convinced, Zhao Siniang decided that the wicked person would sue first, and said, "Second sister, I heard that most of the sweet potato flour sold today was filtered by you?" ”

Zhao Sanniang was stunned, then nodded and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Not filtered enough ......"

"You're going to talk! In order to filter the sweet potato pulp, I specially found a sieve with the thinnest sieve eye and filtered it back and forth three times. What does that mean meticulous? Before Zhao Siniang finished speaking, she was unceremoniously interrupted by Zhao Sanniang.

Zhao Siniang touched her chin and forced herself to calm down: "That is, the filtered sweet potato pulp is not soaked in the water tank for long enough." I just said, how did it take only two or three days to make sweet potato flour? That's too fast! Second sister, I taught you how to distinguish between soaking in sweet potato pulp, did you really do it? ”

"This ......" Zhao Sanniang was a little anxious, in order to make sweet potato noodles as soon as possible, she didn't completely follow the steps taught by Zhao Siniang, and pushed her mother and aunt to reduce a few links in the middle.

Zhao Siniang's eyes lit up, and she was secretly happy in her heart, and then taught her a serious lesson: "Although we are still the first to make this sweet potato flour in Youzhou, it is not difficult to make it, and today I also told the shopkeeper of the restaurant about this method, and I believe that other families will make it one after another in the near future." It is said that "if you are not afraid of not knowing the goods, you are afraid of comparing the goods", this comparison, I am afraid that people will know that our sweet potato flour is made by cutting corners. Second sister, don't you know that the sweet potato flour made by our family, whether it is color or fragrance, is not as good as the sample that my master gave me! ”

In fact, Zhao Siniang would go to see the production process of sweet potato flour from time to time, and she had long known that Zhao Sanniang and the others did not completely follow what they taught. She didn't care about it in her heart, after all, it was not worth making anything as coarse grains in the future, so she turned a blind eye and didn't bother to correct it. And at this moment, she suddenly brought it up in a fake way, completely deliberately finding fault.

"Yue, this is what you are doing wrong! One thing, either don't do it, or do it well! How can you be lucky and fool if you think you can fool it? Cutting corners is not our character! Old Man Jiang scolded sharply.

Jiang's, Jiang Yue'e, and Zhao Sanniang were all so said that they couldn't raise their heads, and they all bowed their heads to admit their mistakes, saying that they would not dare to make mistakes in the future.

Zhao Siniang originally just wanted to take the opportunity to get out of the predicament, but she didn't expect her grandfather to take this little matter so seriously, and would teach Zhao Sanniang and them so harshly. Speaking of which, we can earn a hundred taels of money today, all thanks to my mother's rush to make sweet potato flour! If it was two days later, how could our meatballs happen to be tasted by the distinguished guests in the town, and how could the shopkeeper of the restaurant be so happy to give a high price of one hundred taels? It is estimated that when it drags on, the shopkeeper is willing to pay for the buyer's son! ”

Yang listened, clapped his hands and smiled: "This can be regarded as a crooked hit!" Don't blame them, old man! ”

Old Man Jiang's face softened slightly, and he said, "Don't mention this matter for the time being." Speaking of this one hundred taels of silver, Yongzhong, you still have this money, I can't take it! ”

Old man Jiang said as he took out the silver ticket that his daughter and son-in-law had forced into him from his arms and handed it to Zhao Yongzhong.

"Father-in-law, didn't you say that you should use this money as your capital? What are you going to do for me? Zhao Yongzhong hurriedly excused himself and resolutely refused to accept it.

Old Man Jiang shook his head and said, "If you have the capital, those five taels of silver are enough!" This one hundred taels was obtained by Siniang from the seller, and it should belong to your family. You have just been separated from your family, and have you only been given four acres of land? Let's use this money to buy some more land! Also, although you have been given one room, but when the children are older, one room is not enough, and you have to build two more. If you have the money, let's go build a big house with blue bricks! ”

Zhao Yongzhong's family looked at each other, and said in their hearts: Where did you get a room? That's just a lie to you two elders! They don't even have a place to build a house in Zhaojia Village.

Zhao Siniang knew that the private money was hopeless, and she was thinking about how to use the money all afternoon to suit her own heart, and not be opposed by everyone. After thinking about it for a long time, I still think it is best to build a house in Jiangjiatan.

So Zhao Siniang first told the truth: "Grandpa, tell you the truth!" Our family has no house to live in Zhaojia Village. ”
