Chapter 151: The First "Merchant"
Zhang Mei came back with a cart full of fish heads, Zhang Laosi was also very generous, and asked Zhang Mei to try to see if he could succeed first, if he succeeded, it would not be too late to give him money, if he didn't do well, then the fish heads of the first few times would not need money.
Zhang Mei knew that Zhang Laosi deliberately took care of her family, although these fish heads were not valuable, she still accepted them gratefully, no matter whether she could succeed or not, she owed him a favor.
Zhang Mei dragged a cart of fish heads home, so many fish heads are piled together, the fishy smell is very big, but this is the guarantee of future life, don't take care of the fishy smell, as long as you can make a living of money, who cares about the fishy smell.
The three children, who were helping to peel the shells, were called back to help clean the fish heads. The four of them were very fast, cleaned the gills, salted the fish head with salt, and then wrapped it in a layer with the rice flour they bought, put it in tea seed oil, and fried it over low heat.
Don't look at Zhang Mei's series of actions are simple, which involves all kinds of things, thanks to what someone has done, ordinary people in other parts of the Ming Dynasty buy salt, or the price is high, especially this white and crystal salt, which is not consumed by ordinary people at all.
But in Zhangjia Village, this kind of clean salt costs 50 wen a catty, which is simply the price of cabbage, and the price of salt is high, on the one hand, it is the problem of road transportation, on the other hand, the businessman has to earn huge profits from it, which will lead to the high price of salt.
Zijian doesn't want to loot the people's wealth from the salt, so this kind of high-priced salt in other places is just the cost price here, and the miscellaneous salt purchased from Liu Zhen was bought for fifty yuan a pound after purification, Zijian This is definitely a conscience price, due to the cheapness of salt, the demand for salt in Zhangjia Village has soared.
The fish head was fried in small heat, and the junior next to him was already hungry, biting his fingers and pleading.
"Mother, can you give me a meal!"
Zhang Mei: "Take it, I really owe you." Although the words were not good, the eyes revealed a caring look, although the two women next to them did not speak, they also looked at it with blank eyes, the eldest daughter is only thirteen years old, they all belong to children, and it is normal to be greedy.
Zhang Mei: "It's okay for one person, and these still have to be sold for money." ”
"Thank you, mother!"
"Thank you, mother."
Seeing the three children eating with fish heads, Zhang Mei couldn't help but be happy in her heart, she was a woman's family, it was not easy to feed the three children, and she could have today's day, or benefit from the chief.
Zhang Mei has a name in her heart, knowing that she can have a full stomach one day, it was brought by the chief, and before the chief came to Zhangjia Village, what kind of life everyone lived, who didn't have a number in their hearts.
Put the fried fish head in a clean vine and carry it to a place where there are many people.
Knowing that Xiao San is a bold character, Zhang Mei said, "Xiao San, you beckon the guests to come over, and then give you fish heads when you go home." ”
followed the lively little three, after eating the fish head on one side was not enjoyable, and when he heard that his mother gave him fish head again, and he was more courageous than some children, he agreed to come down, and Zhang Mei taught him a set of rhetoric.
"Delicious fried fish head, delicious fried fish head, uncles, aunts come and take a look!"
This set of rhetoric, Zhang Mei used to see the hawkers in Zhangjia Village say it, so she changed it and made Xiao San shout.
The immature children's voice soon attracted the people in the vicinity.
These days, the people who help to do things have some money in their hands, it's hard to say, but on average, they have three or four hundred copper coins, as the so-called money is heroic courage, and having money is great, seeing that there is something to buy here, they surrounded it.
The most are those boring children, who originally went to help peel the shell, but so many people are working, and they have already finished their work, and they are doing nothing.
Surrounded by a large group of people, Zhang Mei was a little nervous, this is the first time this kind of thing!
As for the heartless junior, he shouted even harder.
When a man comes out, Zhang Mei looks very unfamiliar, it shouldn't be from Zhangjia Village, if it's from this village, even if he doesn't know him, he is more or less familiar.
"Shopkeeper, what are you doing, how did you buy it?"
was called the shopkeeper, Zhang Mei was very embarrassed, she was just a hawker, and she knew that this was someone who gave her face.
Zhang Mei: "Guest, you see, this is fried fish head, it is a good food, you can try it." The price is not expensive, this palm-sized fried fish head is two pennies a piece, and the small one is a penny. ”
Zhang Mei's positioning of the fried fish head is very clear, that is, it is cheap, it can be so cheap, or because this fish head is actually not wanted, she just processed it, and he thought it was expensive.
When the man heard this, he picked up a small fried fish head and ate it, because the fish head was fried and the bones clicked when chewed.
Everyone looked at the man, waiting for what he thought.
"Hmmm! This is good, bring me five, and it will be a glutton. ”
The man used to be a homeless person in the county, came to work here, earned a lot of copper money, he has changed himself into a new linen clothes, is currently a road repair worker in the Eighth Bureau of China Construction, has a stable job, because he is afraid of hunger, although he can eat full, but he is used to eating in his mouth when he is fine, and after seeing the fried fish head, it is his appetite.
With the first person taking the lead, other greedy people stepped forward one after another to buy one or two to nibble.
"Little San, this is your family!"
So many people came to buy things, there was no need for Xiao San, Xiao San squeezed out of the crowd, and saw Zhang Liuzi, two of them playing from childhood to adulthood.
Xiao San straightened his small breasts, "Of course, it's the fried fish head made by my mother, it's delicious, wait for you to come to my house to eat for you." ”
Zhang Liuzi is about the same age, and when he is greedy, he naturally can't escape this temptation.
"What are so many people doing over there, Li Hu, go over and take a look."
Zijian had just returned from the seaside, and the cement had already been burned, because he had kept the price of salt very low, and the demand for salt had increased rapidly, and now the family would not be as stingy with salt as before.
Salt consumption is so fast, and there will be more and more people, Liu Zhen can no longer meet the demand for boiling salt by seawater, so the schedule proposed by seawater salt, Zijian took a few people to ride to Liu Town, found people who are familiar with the seaside, checked the place suitable for building a salt farm, and when he came back, he saw a group of people surrounding, not knowing what to do!
Li Hu came over and ate something in his hand.
"The chief, a woman in Zhangjia Village, took back the fish head that Zhang Laosi didn't want to fry and sell to the people. Do you want to give it a try? ”
Li Hu knew the chief's character, told him about it, and handed the fish head in his hand to Zijian by the way.
Zijian got off the horse, took the fried fish head and chewed it, the other tastes are average, but the white meat of the fish head is very tender and refreshing.
"Let's go, go over and have a look."
This is the first hawker to take the initiative to do business, Zijian wants to go over and have a look.
"Little Liuzi, why are you here!"
Zhang Liuzi, who was hiding on the side, Zijian saw it at a glance.
Zhang Liuzi stepped forward and greeted respectfully, "Hello teacher!" ”
Zijian and his entourage came over, the surrounding people got out of the way, and looked at Zijian with respectful eyes, their life changed is this person, and they are respectful to Zijian from the bottom of their hearts, just like a person who can change your fate, you will also be respectful to him!
The two vines were filled with fried fish heads, and to Zijian's surprise, the vendor was a woman.
"Chief, good lord!"
Seeing Zijian coming, Zhang Mei was a little stammered, this is a "big man"!
Zijian: "Hehe, don't be nervous, I just stopped by to see so many people watching the excitement, the fish head is doing well." Bring me a few. ”
The first "businessman" to appear, Zijian naturally has to take care of it, and there is no discrimination against businessman Zijian, but he has to do things within the scope of his regulations.
Zijian cultivates his own merchant group, businessmen are an indispensable group, without them, the circulation of goods in the society will lack vitality, and the businessmen Zijian dare not use them, they are too smart, smart but the foundation of a country is lost, so he would rather cultivate businessmen slowly.
With someone's leading demonstration, it is equivalent to making a big advertisement for Zhang Mei's fried fish head, and the fried fish head of the two vines was quickly sold out.
"Little San, the teacher is looking for me, I won't go to your house anymore."
Xiao San: "When did you go with the chief?" ”
Zhang Liuzi touched his head and smiled embarrassedly, "Last time I had a problem with the teacher, he accepted me as a disciple, I'm leaving." ”
After speaking, he ran to catch up with Zijian in front.
