Chapter Eighty-Seven: Deliberation

Nowadays, pastries are used for gifts, or snacks for the rich to entertain guests, how can ordinary people have so much spare money to buy pastries to eat? And the more delicate the pastry, the more expensive it is. Therefore, all pastries are made as delicate and beautiful as possible.

Shu Jin made this out, just looking at the appearance, really, not very beautiful......

Although, you can smell the sweet fragrance of dates from a distance.

"Is this ......," Chai Yanfeng asked.

Shu Jin slice a slice with a knife and put it in her mouth to taste, and she was quite satisfied with the taste:

"This is date cake." As he spoke, he cut another slice and handed it to Chai Yanfeng.

The entrance is soft and glutinous and sweet, with jujube fragrance and milky fragrance filling the mouth. Chai Yanfeng had to admit that this taste was really good.

"It's delicious."

"Yes, it's not bad." Shu Jin also nodded and asked, "You say, how about selling this in the town?" ”

As he spoke, he walked to the kitchen, took out the remaining syrup and brown sugar, scooped a small spoonful of syrup and handed it to Chai Yanfeng.

"You try this again."

Chai Yanfeng took it and put it in his mouth: "It's so sweet, like caramel candy, but it's a little different from what you usually eat." ”

"This is made from the beet I said, and this one, after a long time, it will be like this." As he spoke, he showed him brown sugar, "This can also be eaten." ”

Chai Yanfeng pinched a little brown sugar and put it in his mouth, which was also very sweet.

"This, jujube cake, looks average, but it's really delicious. If you go to the town to sell it, you should be able to sell it, but the price needs to be pondered. This candy has a special taste and can also be sold for money. ”

"Yes. I thought so too. I've seen all the pastries in Yuping Town, ranging from dozens of dollars a pound to a few taels of silver. Although this jujube cake is called jujube cake, it is mainly made of milk and flour. If the sugar is used for the kind of caramel that I bought, it will be expensive, but I use the syrup I just made homemade, which has a special taste and low cost. I bought two catties of dates that day, but now I don't use half a catty, but I use almost half a catty of milk. ”

Shu Jin was calculating the cost, "Oh yes. And four eggs. If it is calculated only according to the cost of this time, not counting sugar and firewood, today's jujube cake costs less than 25 yuan. ”

"This is something that has not been done before. Moreover, the taste should be considered medium to high. Even if it is calculated at a pound of fifty yuan, you can earn it, in addition. This big piece of pastry you made today. Gotta have three pounds, right? Chai Yanfeng listened to Shu Jin's words, nodded, and followed the calculation.

Indeed, the jujube cake is steamed in the pot, because the egg whites are swollen, and the water vapor is infiltrated, which is soft and glutinous at the same time, but also very pressing. If it's takeaway. With such a piece, there should be no problem at all in netting dozens of dollars.

For Shu Jin. It is true that you can make a lot of money by going up the mountain to catch snakes, digging herbs and picking wild fruits, but she does not reject the steady and risk-free way of making money like pastries.

"I'll make some other dim sum, but now I don't have the ingredients and I don't taste good. Also, I'm afraid the cost is much higher. ”

In the past few days, Shu Jin has been thinking about all kinds of food and snacks he will make, for the time being, among the pastries, this jujube cake is the most cost-effective.

In fact, Shu Jin thought that if he wanted to make money, it was best to open a shop in the town.

She can cook a lot of food, although she has not practiced it for years, but there are some things that, once learned, will never be forgotten. What's more, she grew up under the influence of her parents since she was a child. Many things are engraved in her blood and bones, and she has not moved for many years, but it is just because there is no condition to eat as she wants in the last days.

Now, she still has dozens of taels of silver in her hand, which sounds like a lot, but if it is used for life, how long is it enough? After experiencing the end of the world, Shu Jin is not like others, she is used to getting by and seizing the time to enjoy the days, but she can't help but think about the long term, she prefers to hoard things.

Enough money, enough food, and a stable life can give her a sense of security.

Now, she still has a disabled "husband" to raise, even if she doesn't have deep feelings for Chai Yanfeng, this man is still happy with her at present. If he had been so obedient, she wouldn't mind spending more time with him.

Shu Jin actually considered opening a shop in the town to sell some food and pastries that other houses in the town did not have, but in the end he temporarily dismissed the idea.

is only a few dozen taels, and if it is really used to open a shop, it is really stretched: the store needs to be rented, the shop needs to be repaired, all aspects of the relationship need to be touched, the introduction of ingredients, and the sales of food, all of which have to be thought up by herself.

Just talking about pastries, now she only makes one date cake, and she doesn't need many utensils. But if you want to get something else out, it will cost you money. For example, pastries need to be baked. Then she needed a baking stove; Pastry needs styling, she needs dim sum molds; In addition, there are many things that are not available in today's era, but they are indispensable materials for making pastries, and she has to think about them.

After all, fifty taels of silver is far from enough.

"Since that's the case, it's better to try to make this jujube cake and sell it first. If the wind evaluation is good in the future, then consider doing something else. Chai Yanfeng heard Shu Jin's words, and also nodded in agreement.

He is also a cautious person, so he will not approve of Shu Jin's adventure.

"By the way, then you say, what should these fifty taels of silver be used for?" Shu Jin also nodded when he heard Chai Yanfeng's words, and asked instead. She already had an idea in her heart, but she wanted to hear what Chai Yanfeng had to say.

"I've also thought about it, if this money is stored in Zài's hands, we won't need so much silver on weekdays. As you said, it's better to take it out and make money with money. Chai Yanfeng said, "If you open a shop, I'm afraid the money will not be enough, and we don't have so many things to sell now." Opening a shop is also a waste. ”

Chai Yanfeng paused, and when he saw Shu Jin nodding, he said his thoughts: "It's better to use these silver taels to buy land." ”

Shu Jin's eyes lit up when he heard this. The two of them have the same idea!

She has already understood that now, this great performance country is the prosperous scene of the founding of the country not long ago, and it is hard to govern. In the past, people were displaced due to war, the population was plummeting, and the land was idle, but now is the time to encourage agriculture and multiply.

At this time, buying land is not only less tax, but also the price of land is more favorable. According to the price of land today, one acre of high-quality fertile land near the town is about seven or eight taels of silver. Fifty taels of silver, you can buy a lot of land! (To be continued......)
