Chapter 503: Wealth

The second is to ask for pink...... On the dinner table of Lian Man'er's family, cold salad is often used instead of dipping pickles. For example, if you shoot cucumbers, if you want to make cucumbers delicious, it is best not to use a kitchen knife made of steel, which will damage the fragrance of cucumbers. The effect is best when you shoot it with a bamboo knife. There are also tender cucumbers and dried tofu cut into thin strips to adjust the taste, which is very refreshing to eat.

To make coleslaw in summer, it is indispensable to make garlic puree.

Lian Man'er thinks that adding garlic is not only for the taste, but also for the purpose of sterilization. Speaking of garlic, I have to talk about another dish that Lian Shouxin likes to eat very much, that is, steamed eggplant.

Choose a long and smooth tender eggplant, when cooking or cooking, add a curtain drawer to the iron pot, spread the curtain cloth, and then spread the washed eggplant on the curtain cloth and steam it over fire. In order to prevent the taste of the eggplant from losing in the process of steaming Chapter 503 Fuye System, the stem of the eggplant cannot be removed.

When the eggplant is steamed in this way, the color of the skin will become very light, and when you tear it open, you can see that the inside is already soft. Steamed eggplant and dipped in the prepared soy sauce sauce are quite delicious.

However, Lian Man'er doesn't like to eat this dish very much, she likes eggplant marinated in garlic. The same is to wash the eggplant and steam it in the pot, but it can't be so bad, just cook it. Then the eggplant is broken, the eggplant is smeared with garlic and fine salt, and then put it in a jar of pickles, spread it layer by layer, and place it in a cool place to pickle.

You don't need to marinate for long, and you can eat it. For breakfast, I eat fried dough sticks with soy milk from the tofu factory, and this pickled eggplant tastes the best. The fritters are made by Lian Kee himself, and a new guy is hired to fry the fritters, so every day or two, Lian Kee will fry the fritters and sell them, and sometimes he will fry some glutinous rice fried cakes with bean paste filling, and the sales are also very good. So buy fritters and fried cakes. Lien Kee will be served a plate of home-made side dishes, including eggplant.

In fact, the greasy food is a perfect match with this pickled and refreshing side dish.

At this time. New potatoes also came down.

There are also many ways to eat potatoes Chapter 503 There are also many rich industries, the simplest is to wash the potatoes, boil them in the pot, and then remove the skin, mash the potatoes into mashed potatoes, or just dip them in sauce and eat them. Even the Man'er family harvested the potatoes, but they were all small first. Either the potatoes are flawed in appearance or injured when digging are eaten, and those potatoes with large heads and smooth skin are stored.

Those potatoes can be stored for more than half a year and eaten until the beginning of spring next year.

In addition to boiled potatoes, cold shredded potatoes are also very popular with the family, put more vinegar, and eat it very appetizing in summer.

And this season. On the dinner table of the Zhuang family in Thirty Miles of Yingzi, the most common stews are usually potatoes, beans and eggplant as the protagonists. You don't even have to put meat. Just add a large spoonful of meat oil when stewing, and the pot will be fragrant, and if you add some vermicelli to it, it will be even more delicious.

The children who are growing their bodies hardly know what the bitter summer is, and this season's melons and vegetables feed each of them strong and strong.

Xiao Qi didn't gain weight, but just watched his body and smoke. Dahua was already a fat cat, and Da Fat and Er Fat also took off the smell of milk and grew into two strong half-sized dogs. Spent most of the day on the other side of the river, guarding the fish pond.

And when Lian Man'er put on the dress that was still suitable for last year, her figure was not fat or thin, but the cuffs were obviously shorter, the pants exposed her feet and necks, and the skirt was not long enough.

"It's like a crop in the field. I snuck a long strip at night. Zhang smiled while changing the clothes of several children.

This summer, on Lian Man'er's manor, the lotus pond has become the most attractive scene.

In the early morning and evening of summer, Lian Man'er likes to go to the other side of the river, walk around the lotus pond, and close the lotus leaves in the lotus pond, or the lotus flowers that are in full bloom or budding. And the clear night of the full moon is the most beautiful time for the lotus pond. The lotus leaves and lotus flowers in the moonlight, adding a hazy beauty that is not available during the day, the face is full of water vapor and the light fragrance of lotus flowers, the ears are the sound of frogs, and the heat of the day is swept away. In Mr. Lu's words, "...... Cleansing the mind can make people forget their worries......"

This lotus pond is not only loved by the Man'er family itself.

There are elegant people from nearby villages and towns, or looking for Goro, or trusting love and trustworthiness, to come to the lotus pond to enjoy the scenery. As long as it is a serious person, this kind of request, Lian Man'er rarely refuses. Next to the lotus pond, in the pavilion they built for Mr. Lu, two poetry meetings were really held, and Wulang and Xiaoqi naturally participated, which made the two brothers, especially Wulang, make more friends who read.

There are also large families who see that this fish pond and lotus pond are prosperous, and they have the heart to follow suit. Wang Ju's family is already looking for a suitable place to dig the lotus pond. One day, Wang Youhuai also came to Lian Man'er's house with Wang Youheng and told Wulang that the lotus root that would be planted at that time would be bought from Wulang.

The business of the fish pond has continued, and the lotus pond has finally reached the harvest season.

Fresh water chestnut and fresh lotus pod are ready to be marketed.

Naturally, the family had to sit down and discuss.

"How should I set the price?"

Fresh water chestnut and fresh lotus pod are rare in Jinyang County, and their sales target group is also very clear, that is, the rich and gentry of Jinyang County.

"This lotus pod still has to be sold leisurely," Lian Man'er said, and he had to leave some to sell the dried lotus seeds when the time came. "Scarcity is expensive, and we can't set the price low."

The wealthy families and gentry in the county could eat dried lotus seeds brought from the south, but they could not eat fresh lotus flowers.

"How about 30 yuan per lotus pod?" Lian Man'er thought about it and said. She still remembers that in her previous life, when this season came, she could see the vendor carrying a basket to sell fresh lotus pods, and they were selling them. It is said that in the southern water towns, the price of fresh lotus pods is not high. But in the northern cities, the price of fresh lotus pods is fifteen yuan a piece.

At this price, there are many people who buy it, just to eat a fresh one.

Even Man'er now plans to sell fresh lotus flowers, but also to sell a fresh one. Most of the lotus pods should still be kept, and the lotus seeds will be dried and sold later.

"What about the water chestnut?" Even Shouxin asked again.

Water chestnut is not allowed to grow too old, fresh and tender water chestnut is delicious to eat raw, when cooking rice or porridge put a few grains of water chestnut rice, can make the whole pot of rice and porridge fragrant.

"You can sell as much water chestnut as you can, let's talk about selling by catty, let's set 20 yuan a catty first." Lian Man'er said. This is the price of fresh water chestnut with skin. In the future, the price of peeled water chestnut rice will naturally be higher.

Even the lotus pond of Man'er's house, because of those who watched the scenery, and because of the poems they wrote. It's already famous. This has created a lot of convenience for the sale of fresh lotus pods and fresh water chestnuts. Lian Shouxin just used a car to pull fresh water chestnuts and fresh lotus canopy to send some to the restaurant, and then went to the market in Jinyang Town, the big market in two or three nearby towns went to the big market twice, and then went to the county town, and the one who took the initiative to order came to the door.

In addition to restaurants and large households, there are also a number of hawkers among the orderers. These vendors bought fresh water chestnut and fresh lotus pods from the lotus pond, and carried baskets or picks to the streets. Sell the water chestnut and lotus pod at a price of two or three cents to make a profit. The target sales group of these hawkers are mostly those small families who have some money to spare. These people don't buy more at a time, that is, they try a little. The hawkers are also very flexible, for example, fresh water chestnut does not have to be sold in whole catties, people pick a small handful, and they are willing to sell. Not only is it convenient for everyone, but they also make money because of it.

"Fresh water chestnut. Fresh lotus seeds, water chestnuts and lotus seeds from the lotus pond of the Imperial Gift/Stone Archway Lianjia ......"

For a time, the streets and alleys of the town. You can often hear such cries.

Lian Shouxin and Wulang also went to Fucheng and sent a cart of fresh water chestnuts, fresh lotus canopies, and the fattest fresh fish picked in the fish pond to the Shen family.

The Shen family did not price the things, but returned with a lot of gifts, and said the date, and asked Lian Shouxin to send another car. It is said that those ladies of the Shen Mansion are very fond of fresh lotus pods and fresh water chestnuts.

"Is the sixth master at home?" Lian Man'er asked Gorou.

"At home,...... The sixth master is normal for fish, and he likes fresh lotus seeds and water chestnuts. Gorou said.

Fresh lotus seeds and fresh water chestnuts are eaten in this summer. Not to mention the taste and fragrance, it is also the best way to clear the heat and cool off.

"What about Chubby?"

"He likes them all." Gorou smiled, "He also complained to me, saying that he couldn't go out at home, and he especially wanted to see what our lotus pond was like now." …… I also asked about Big Flower, Big Fat and Little Fat ......"

Even cats and dogs asked, this Shen Xiaopang is really. Lian Man'er couldn't help but laugh.

The fish pond and the lotus pond were sold for some time, and that evening, the family sat down to clean up the accounts.

"Carp sold for 1,200 catties, grass carp for 800 catties, crucian carp for 400 catties, silver carp for 700 catties, silver carp for 600 catties, and Gui fish for 300 catties...... Lian Man'er summed up the accounts recorded every day, "The total income is 57 taels and 8 yuan in silver." ”

Lian Man'er took out the accounts of digging lotus ponds and purchasing fish fry, and calculated the costs of fish ponds and fish farming with Xiao Qi. In the end, it was concluded that most of the costs were spread out among these incomes, and their net income was still forty-eight taels.

In the fish pond, half of the fish have not been sold, so you can imagine how much even the Man'er family will earn after those fish are sold.

"What about this water chestnut and lotus canopy?" Zhang asked.

Lian Man'er and Xiao Qi turned over the other two accounts. Fresh lotus pods were sold for a total of 1,000 pieces, and fresh water chestnuts were sold for 1,500 catties, and the total income was 52 taels of silver. The cost of digging the lotus pond and the cost of taking care of it have been amortized into the income of the fish pond above, and only the cost of lotus root seeds and water chestnut seeds needs to be subtracted, which is the net income they get from the lotus pond. Lian Man'er calculated a net income of forty-two taels of silver.

Because the cost of the fish pond and the lotus pond are amortized in these two incomes, then the money from selling fish, lotus seeds, water chestnuts, chicken head rice, and especially lotus roots in the future will be completely pure income.

The lotus root is not sold at all, and the lotus leaves in that pond can also be sold to the pharmacy. The family's eyes lit up when they thought of the possible figures.

"I didn't expect that this fish pond and lotus pond are really making money." Lian Shouxin sighed.

"Of course." Lian Man'er smiled and nodded. As a landlord, it is not enough to just farm the land, only the continuous development of the side business, in order to bring rolling financial resources......
