076 Rich and free
The elegant face of the shopkeeper Liu was full of astonishment, and the little girl in front of her looked like an ordinary and honest child, how could she come up and climb the relationship like this?
"Shopkeeper Liu may have forgotten that half a year ago, you invited me and a pair of younger siblings to eat meat buns for the first time in my life." Yun Ying was sincerely grateful to the kind person in front of her, and thinking of the satisfied smiles of her younger brothers and sisters at that time, Yun Ying still felt satisfied.
It is also common for the shopkeeper Liu to see who gives a few meat buns on weekdays, and he can't remember who Yunying is for a while; But he is a businessman, and he knows that the little girl in front of him can bring benefits to Zhenweiju, and this is enough.
Yun Ying was also looking at the shopkeeper of the restaurant in front of him, who was more like Mr. Academy than Mr. Academy, and heard that he and Second Uncle Liu were brothers, but no matter how you look at it, you can't see the similarities between the two.
"Haha, what are you two looking at? Yunying girl, this is what I told you about Uncle Liu, don't call it Liu Da Shopkeeper, it doesn't sound pleasant. "Liu Er's shopkeeper thinks it's very interesting, there is a big one and a small one in front of him, and they look different from each other, but they look at each other the same. He turned around and pulled the shopkeeper Liu to sit down at the table, "Big brother, come and taste it, what's the difference in this taste?" β
At the same time, Yun Ying prepared a small bowl of bean pepper separately, and the bean pepper with hot oil and other condiments smelled appetizing, and it was accompanied by a bowl of tender bean curd, which was the best way to maintain the freshness and flavor of the bean ban.
Liu Da shopkeeper looks Sven, and the action of eating is also Sven, everything is tasted lightly, but the bright color between the eyebrows is getting worse and worse, and when he has to eat the original tender bean curd, he can't help but hit the table and praise: "Plant beans under the south mountain." Frost wind old pod fresh. Grind the jade milk, steam and boil to make a clear spring. The color is crisper and cleaner than the earth, and the fragrance is stronger than the chalcedony. The taste is more than beautiful, and the five foods should not be passed on. β
It seems that this tender bean curd without any seasoning processing is the most suitable for the taste of sour Confucian literati like Liu Da's shopkeeper, and the spicy tofu just now did not get such high praise from him. Yun Ying doesn't know poetry, and she doesn't have that kind of vassal elegance, she only knows that the business of this bean pepper is about to be.
Sure enough, after waiting for the shopkeeper Liu to reminisce, he took the hot towel prepared on the table and wiped his hands, and turned to Yun Ying with a "please" gesture.
The kitchen is certainly not a good place to talk about things. The group of three moved to the rest room next to Liu Er's shopkeeper's kitchen. With Liu Da's shopkeeper here, Liu Er's shopkeeper could only tell him: "You don't want to treat Yunying badly." β
provoked the shopkeeper Liu to glare at him, "When have you ever seen me cheat?" "He's all rich and noble people who come to eat, a child like Yun Ying. Let him pit him, he is embarrassed to do it.
Liu Er's shopkeeper smirked. took the gourd scoop in the house to take care of the flowers and plants that he had neglected for a long time. The ears were erected high, for fear that Yun Ying would accidentally be caught by his shrewd big brother who was called the "silver fox" in those years.
His careful eyes were all seen by the shopkeeper Liu, but he didn't expect his stubborn and almost paranoid younger brother to become more and more naΓ―ve after a few years of dormancy. He shook his head slightly, and then asked Yun Ying seriously: "Yun Ying, how much do you think is appropriate for you to give you this secret recipe called watercress chili?" β
He heard that Liu Er's shopkeeper bought Yun Ying's 600 catties of chili peppers and 12 secret recipes for 500 taels before, and he felt a little lost, but then after promotion, he found out that there were huge benefits. "Poisonous red fruit" is not a special product of a hundred families, the county seat of Asahi City and the border city can still find a lot, after a resale of the treasured house of the whole Tengyun Dynasty at least more than 10,000 taels; So I didn't plan to bid myself this time, I wanted to hear how Yunying wanted to sell?
"Douban chili, I don't plan to sell secret recipes." This is something that Yun Ying planned before she came, and everything else is easy to imitate, but this moldy Douban method is remembered in his heart, and it is even more difficult for others to imitate it. The Guan family's residence is extremely remote in Lijia Village, and it is no problem to gather two proper people to make douban sauce, and anyone will do the step of pouring chili peppers and stirring after mold becomes sauce, so she only plans to be responsible for the level of moldy watercress.
"Oh?" Shopkeeper Liu raised his eyebrows in surprise, but he felt relieved when he thought about the results of the investigation that Liu Er had said, "Then you...... How do you want to sell it? "The two brothers of the Liu family both feel that there are countless capable people in the world, why can't others if the two of them can retreat to such a remote place as Baijiaji? After discussing, he also stopped thinking about continuing to investigate Jia's identity.
It's also a shame that they didn't continue to investigate, otherwise the strange thing that Yun Ying's little Lori body contains an otherworldly soul might be exposed. Yun Ying listened to Liu Da's shopkeeper's question, and hurriedly explained the last point of the production process of the bean pepper, and suggested very sincerely:
"We don't have Hu Dou, the raw material for making bean paste this year, if Uncle Liu can help me buy as much as I want, I will help you make fifty percent of it into bean paste for free, and the remaining fifty percent will be arranged by me." Yun Ying guessed that this year's Hu Dou was the first year that the merchant in the capital ate crabs, and there would definitely not be too many, all she wanted was seeds, whether it was Xishan or those sandy lands downstream, she could try to plant some. The season in Lijia Village is somewhat similar to the south where she stayed in her previous life, after the rice is harvested, she can plant a stubble in the fertile fields, and then a stubble in the mountains before the beginning of winter, and next year, her bean paste will start to be produced in large quantities.
Yun Ying's request was not too much, and the shopkeeper Liu agreed without hesitation, and proposed to go to the capital to buy the planting method of Hu Beans by the way, so that Yun Ying could avoid detours when planting; Yun Ying also provided a proposal for the shopkeeper Liu to sign an exclusive acquisition with the merchant in the capital, as for whether the shopkeeper Liu had the financial resources to acquire and whether he was willing to gamble, Yun Ying did not say deeply.
After listening to this, Liu Er's shopkeeper admired the two of them and reminded Yun Ying: "Yun Ying, you have given me all the 600 catties of chili peppers this year." β
Yun Yingwan smiled: "Indeed, our family only has less than two hundred catties left, at first I thought that the rest would be sold to you, but now it is not enough." But people can't be greedy, let's plan again next year. β
Shopkeeper Liu smiled and wrote the sales agreement and the precautions for both parties, and praised with a smile: "Yunying is right, the second brother is too heavy on weekdays, and he is not as good as a little girl." Before reading the agreement to Yun Ying, Shopkeeper Liu made another suggestion: "Since this watercress pepper is to be sold as a condiment, it must be a catchy name." The name of Zhenweiju should not be too much, it is better to call it 'Yunying Douban'. β
Yun Ying waved her hand again and again, "Don't use my name." She didn't plan to be eaten as a meal in the future, thinking of the prestige of the Douban pepper named after the place name in her previous life, Yun Ying also picked it up and used it, "This Douban is made in Baijiaji, why not call it 'Baijiaji Douban'?" It's nice and catchy, and it's good for people to know that there is such a place. β
The name is just a code name, at this time, no one knows how popular "Baijiaji Douban" will be in the future, and the three of them discussed some precautions, and some of Yun Ying's suggestions called Liu Da, who was once called the "silver fox", also sighed to himself, but fortunately, there was a Jia Shi who never went out in front of Yun Ying, no matter how early she was, it was attributed to Jia Shi afterwards.
In this way, Yun Ying was temporarily vacant before waiting for the next batch of beans to arrive. Before Hu Dou was unsure, she couldn't discuss with the Jia family about finding someone to help, let alone asking Guan Ping to find Village Chief Li to plant Hu Dou in the field; There is no need to be frightened all day long, and there is no need to think about what to do, Yun Ying, who is newly promoted to the daughter-in-law of the Guan family, has been idle at home for two days, giving up the ideal of becoming an embroidery master, and is willing to go to Xishan to find out if there are any other surprises.
Guan Ping once said that the other side of the West Mountain used to be the training ground of the border city, and the large beasts on the mountain were basically hunted down, at least his father had only bumped into a wild boar for so many years, and he didn't even see the shadow of the wild boar after that. Of course, Guan Ping didn't dare to say with certainty that there was absolutely none, but he repeatedly told Yun Ying about the scope of his activities.
Jia Shi knew that Yun Ying had a piece of chili pepper in the West Mountain that sold for a lot of money, and also knew that there were still many chili peppers in the field that had not been collected at home, so she could only walk around at home with a cane, and she couldn't help Yun Ying with any favor, so she could only be doubly good to her, and every day Yun Ying went up the mountain, she would change her way to make something delicious for Yun Ying to take, so as not to delay Yun Ying by rushing home for dinner at noon.
Xishan is actually cooler than staying at home, Yun Ying is equipped with the smoked snake and rat poison powder that Guan Ping bought from the town hospital, a sharp firewood knife pinned to her waist, and a one-meter-long bamboo pole in her hand to choose a new path to explore; This is the third road that has been explored along the valley of the pepper field, and Yun Ying has also made a lot of gains in the past few days, finding a few pumpkins and a lot of flowers and plants that can either improve the environment or can be used medicinally.
Now that she has money and leisure, Yun Ying has also begun to slowly regain her love for flowers and plants in her previous life, and there are a few more smiles, gardenias, impatiens, and daylilies in the small courtyard of the Guan family, whether they are fragrant or half-blooming or persuasively blooming flowers, which make the smile on Jia's face a little more, and also add countless courage to Yun Ying to go up the mountain alone.
Today's luck is also good, only a few steps Yun Ying smelled a strong floral fragrance, you don't need to look at her to guess that this fragrance comes from Huang Jiaonan, every summer in her previous life, this smell will be emitted on the street where she sits in the odd job flower shop, refreshing.
Following this taste, Yun Ying unconsciously walked out of the range of the big trap laid by Guan Ping, and did not find that she was climbing up the steep mountain road step by step, and soon passed the position halfway up the West Mountain. She just kept thinking, how big can the yellow horn tree that she has not seen after walking so far be, and how many flowers can bloom to fragrance so far? (To be continued......)
