Chapter 11 Zhumen's wine and meat stink
After Uncle Wei left, someone came over tentatively to try it, and Liu Hai simply took out a piece of walnut cake to crisp it, and gave people a bite whenever someone came over.
This method is not bad, after all, the people of the Tang Dynasty are simple.
Even if there are occasional people who don't like to eat, but because of the soft mouth, you can buy two pieces more or less. No matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat, and slowly the inside of the basket is also beginning to bottom.
It's just that I have never encountered someone like Wei Shuhuan who was as generous as he was and bought so many walnut cakes at one time, which really disappointed Liu Hai.
But just like that, Zhang Da was already very surprised.
It's only been about half an hour, and it's almost sold out. Although he didn't calculate the amount of money specifically, how to calculate it would cost more than 100 yuan, after all, when the two of them came out, there were more than 100 walnut cakes in the frame, and they grabbed a handful for Grandma Wang, and it was estimated that there would be more than a dozen, so let's not count them for the time being.
But if the rest can be sold out, it will be nearly 200 yuan, which is a lot of money.
After all, although this is a skyrocketing price, it doesn't cost twenty yuan to buy a chicken, which is just a matter of selling for a while, and even before using oil, you can earn ten chickens?
Liu Hai didn't know what kind of worship Zhang Da had in his heart, he just stared at the remaining walnut cake in the basket in a daze, what he said just now has been said, and now he remembers that the preservation of vegetables in the Tang Dynasty was not very good, especially at this time, vegetables are basically only eaten by large families, if you want to make three-color hair cakes, you have to think of another way.
Among the three colors, yellow is not necessary to think of additional methods, after all, corn itself is yellow. In the Tang Dynasty, there were two ready-made vegetables that could make these two colors, that is, red cowhide cabbage and sunflower cabbage, red cowhide cabbage was red stem and red leaves in winter, while sunflower was green, and the taste itself was not heavy.
Red cowhide was introduced to China during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, but it is also common among the people, and it is suitable to make this.
Based on the principle of the three primary colors, if it is more laborious, it is not particularly difficult to make colorful hair cakes directly.
Sunflower was less common in later generations, but it was eaten more in the south. But in the Tang Dynasty, it was a common vegetable.
Thinking of this, Liu Hai turned his head to look at Grandma Wang.
"Granny Wang, do you know where to sell sunflower and red cowhide cabbage? I want to buy some and plant a little bit this year. ”
Grandma Wang glanced at her bangs in surprise and said with a smile.
"My family originally planted it last year, but it was not well preserved, and I am afraid there is no place to sell it at this time."
Liu Hai sighed secretly, it seems that this year we must build a vegetable greenhouse, otherwise it will be difficult to get anything. But if you want to build a vegetable greenhouse, the most important thing is that there is no plastic, and if you build a greenhouse, the cost will be higher.
Speaking of which, it still has nothing to do with money.
You still have to make a lot of money before you divide the land, no matter what you want to do, you can't do without money.
Zhang Da thought about it, and hurriedly walked over and patted Liu Hai's shoulder.
"Brother Liu Hai, if you want red cowhide vegetables and sunflower vegetables, I have them at home, and there are many of them. As much as you want, I'll go straight to the house and get it later, and I'll make sure I have everything. ”
This is really a pillow if you want to sleep, bangs were shocked, and he quickly turned his head and looked at Zhang Da with some excitement.
"You really have these two dishes at home, don't lie to me."
Zhang Da patted his chest and said confidently.
"Of course I won't lie to you, last year I planted all these two vegetables in the field, and there was no food at all. Even if there was a big drought, I didn't lose much, but I didn't sell it out, and I saved it with great effort, just waiting for it to be sold last winter, and it could be sold for a good price. It's a pity that there are really few people who can afford vegetables, and there is no shortage of these two dishes in large households. So there is still a lot left in the house, and I'm worried! ”
Bangs can barely hide the excitement on his face, as long as there are these two dishes, don't say it's three colors, even if it's colorful, it's easy to do.
Just to do colorful, the taste is probably a little complicated, may not be able to make many people like, or the three colors have their own taste, can be a little safer, but also more like the buyer.
"Go back and tell you Aya, don't worry about it first, I'll buy it for fifty yuan first, half of the red cowhide cabbage and half of the sunflower cabbage. I'll give you twenty wen first, you brought it from home, and I don't need your help here, and I'll go back when I buy good things. ”
Zhang Da glanced at the money in Liu Hai's hand, and reached out to touch his head embarrassedly, his ears were a little red.
"Brother Liu Hai, I'll bring vegetables from home first, and it's not too late for you to give me the money, anyway, I believe you."
After saying that, he didn't even dare to look at his bangs, so he ran back directly, which made his bangs a little stunned and laughed dumbly.
I didn't expect this Zhang Da to be bullied when he treated the original owner.
Now that he has changed his core, he somehow looks like a simple teenager.
It seems that Zhang Da's nature is not bad, maybe he just can't get used to the cowardice of the original owner, plus he has a crush on Ayu, so he repeatedly bullied the original owner, and when he found that he had changed as a person, he became honest, but he was a good boy who could be trained.
After Zhang Da left, all the walnut cakes in the basket were finally sold, Liu Hai breathed a sigh of relief, said goodbye to Grandma Wang, and walked towards the rice grain store. If he wants to make a hair cake, he still needs to buy some white flour and sugar, which are necessary ingredients.
But before that, Bangs went to buy a chicken first.
At this time, chickens were really not very valuable, and to be more precise, chickens, ducks and geese were not meat at all in the Tang Dynasty.
Therefore, it didn't cost much to buy a chicken, and Liu Hai specially picked a big and fat one, which cost fifteen yuan.
He didn't buy the oil first, after all, the ancient oil price was really expensive, and the chicken he bought could squeeze out the oil itself, and he could use this method during this time. Not only can you use this to replenish Ayu's body, but also save a sum of expenses.
After walking for a while, Liu Hai involuntarily stopped outside a large rice grain store.
He stood in the doorway, saw the tall sacks piled up inside, and though he hesitated, he stepped in.
Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road.
Even if the grain in this rice grain shop is for the entire people of Chang'an, they can eat for a month, but people still freeze to death every day.
In fact, Liu Hai is not a cynical and angry youth, but this incident made him instinctively a little uncomfortable, after all, he is also one of the people who is about to starve to death, how can he not pay attention to his own life?
The guy from the rice grain shop was half-napping on the counter, when he heard footsteps coming in, he was excited, and hurriedly walked over.
