Hawthorn has the effect of appetizing and strengthening the spleen, invigorating blood and removing blood stasis, and belongs to the fruit that can be used in medicine. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Because there is a saying about sour children and spicy women in China since ancient times, women like to eat sweet and sour hawthorn after pregnancy, regardless of whether they will give birth to a man or a woman in the future, let their husband's family be happy for ten months.

Of course, pregnant women themselves can also be expensive for ten months.

The rich lady who ordered hawthorn in the fruit Liu family probably thought so, but unfortunately had a miscarriage, so that the hawthorn was stagnant, and the Liu family shop operated by a small capital was pitted.

In view of this, Xue Zong decided to help!

The most direct way to solve the problem of unsalable goods is to increase market demand, hawthorn is not a necessity of life, and it has no ability to affect the hawthorn market in Bianliang, Tokyo.

So the only feasible way is to pack, the hawthorn is sold in a different shape, throughout the ages, what is the best derivative of hawthorn?

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Xue Zong's mouth, quite confident!

Early the next morning, Xue Mengshi prepared breakfast for the two children and went out, and the newly completed embroidery had to be sent to the silk shop, and by the way, he received the next work.

There was no one at home, so Xue Zong went directly into the kitchen, and it took half a day to find half a jar of granulated sugar, which was slightly rough in texture, as if it was still a little damp.

But it seems to be my grandmother's treasure, and I don't want to drink it, and my family is poor, so it's not easy to buy some sugar.

Xuan was poured into the pot by Xue Zong very defeated, lit firewood and added water to melt sugar, and then found a few bamboo sticks to string the cleaned hawthorn.

Yun'er's eyes widened on the side, and she asked curiously, "Brother Zong, what are you doing?" ”

"Eat well, you'll know later."

"Well, good!"

A little gluttonous cat.,It's a foodie potential.,If it goes on like this,Lori can be a little chubby girl......

Xue Zong shook his head lightly, and concentrated on the pot table, the sugar had all melted, and the water had almost evaporated. Seeing that there were already dense small bubbles in the pot, I picked it with chopsticks and was already able to pull out long sugar threads.

It's time!

Xue Zong immediately put the skewered hawthorn into the pot and turned it quickly, so that the hawthorn was evenly coated with a thin layer of sugar water.

Then it was placed on the cutting board to dry for half a quarter of an hour, and when it was picked up again, the red hawthorn fruit was wrapped in a layer of shiny sugar and fat, and the simple version of the rock sugar gourd of the Great Song Dynasty was born.

Xue Zong took one bite first, because of the lack of some materials, although there were some fly in the ointment, but the taste was already good.

handed a string to Yun'er, the little girl licked it lightly, then bit off the hawthorn, and after eating three in a row, she shouted: "Brother Zong, it's delicious!" ”

"It's delicious!" Xue Zong put a few strings of rock sugar gourds into the frame, washed the pot and stove cutting board, and said, "Let's go to the fruit Liu's shop, does Yun'er know how to go?" ”

Through rebirth, although he inherited his previous memories, it was somewhat chaotic, and Xue Zong couldn't help but worry about getting lost in Bianliang City, Tokyo.

"Yes!" Yun'er grinned, then took the copper lock, asked Xue Zong to lock the door, and stuffed the key into the stone crack at the door.

"Put it here, Grandmother will find it when she comes back!"

Xue Zong smiled lightly, he had done this in his previous life, but he didn't dare after the theft in the community later. People often say that when the ancient folk customs were good, the roads were not left behind, and the doors were not closed at night, and they did not know how the security and folk customs of the Great Song Dynasty were?

In fact, there is nothing to worry about, the Xue family is poor and white, what is there to steal?

Go out and see five big willow trees lined up in turn, the origin of the alley name is clear at a glance, wait out of the alley, turn a few intersections, and see the rippling blue waves of the Bianhe River in the distance.

The riverside is still peachy and willow green, the river is full of painted boats and cargo ships, and the street markets on both sides of the river are also very lively, and the flow of people is bustling.

"There is a wharf over there, there are often many boats moored, Xiangguo Temple is over there, but it is lively...... Yun'er pointed to the west and said: "There is the state bridge over there, the wide road is the royal street, there are often long hats and robes, and there are people with long beards who ride by, let's not go around......"

"Yun'er is so smart, she knows so much!" Xue Zong couldn't help but praise.

"It's all Brother Zong, you taught me?" Yun'er waited for her big eyes, but it was a little strange.

Xue Zong laughed twice, he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, how could he forget this stubble, it was really ......

However, after hearing Yun'er's words, Xue Zong also had a trace of doubt in his heart. Yujie is the central axis of Tokyo's Bianliang, the Bianhe River is the traffic artery, and not far from the opposite bank is Xiangguoji Temple, which is a famous scenic spot and commercial center, and the scenery on both sides of the Bianhe River is beautiful.

Then the geographical location of Wuliu Lane should be very good, which is equivalent to an excellent location within the second ring road of the capital in the future. The Xue family has a few rooms and a small courtyard in this area, if this is placed in the next generation, it will be worth eight figures to split the second generation.

However, there are few princely residences in the vicinity, and there are few deep mansion compounds, mainly ordinary low-rise houses, and there is no sign of demolition at all.

Seems a little out of the ordinary, huh?

Regarding this issue, Xue Zong was a little puzzled for the time being, and only after a while did he accidentally figure it out.

The shop of the Liu family is not far from the Bianhe River in the bazaar, a small storefront room, more than half of which is counted as a warehouse, and there are stalls facing the street in front, which somewhat occupies the meaning of the road, but it seems that it is not illegal in these years. Guozi Liu and his wife were busy decorating and weighing catties, while their son Liu Bing stood aside and shouted to solicit customers.

"Brother Zong'er, Yun'er, why are you here?"

"Uncle Liu, Aunt Liu, Brother Bing is good!" Without waiting for Xue Zong to speak, Yun'er rushed to greet her, like a little sweet mouth.

Xue Zong asked, "Uncle Liu, Aunt Liu, is business okay?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay, the weather is good today, there are many people watching the willows along the river, and they can all sell some fruit." Guozi Liu said: "Although Brother Zong'er is fine, but in the end, it is thrilling, you should rest at home for a few more days, how did you get here?" ”

"Uncle Liu is worried, don't worry." Xue Zong said with a smile: "I came here to send some food to Brother Bing, and I also invited Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu to try it." ”

As he spoke, Xue Zong handed over the three strings of rock sugar gourds respectively.

"Brother Zong'er, what is this?"

"Just taste it!"

"Sweet!" Liu Bing licked his lips first, and when he bit down again, his eyes lit up, and he said in surprise: "Hawthorn? ”

Xue Zong nodded and said: "Uncle Liu, yesterday I heard Brother Bing say that your hawthorn has a lot of inventory, and it is a little unsalable, so I thought of a way to make the hawthorn look like this, I don't know if it is good to sell?" ”

After eating two fruits, Liu nodded again and again: "Sweet and sour, it's very good, maybe it's a good idea." ”

"Well, I don't do much, can you try sell a few bunches, see how it works, and then make plans?" Xue Zong is not in a hurry, and it is the last word to be tested by the market.

"Okay, but what's the name of this thing?"

"The hawthorns are in strings like gourds connected one by one, and the outside is coated with sugar...... Sugar gourd? Xue Zong looked at Liu Bing, who was eating fragrantly, and said with a smile: "This sugar looks like ice crystals, why don't you call it a rock sugar gourd!" ”

"Good!" embedded Liu Bing's name, Aunt Liu was naturally very happy.

The name was happily decided, and the rock sugar gourd was also inserted in the most conspicuous position, and the customers who came to buy the fruit were curious, and some people would ask a few questions, but no one bought them for the time being.

This made Xue Zong very hurt, after thousands of years of actual proof, the rock sugar gourd tastes good, and it is deeply loved, and it will never be unattended.

It is a matter of publicity, and new products need to be publicized and word-of-mouth......

Xue Zong immediately took the few rock sugar gourds, took Yun'er and walked to the crowd by the river in the distance, and distributed free tastings.

Of course, it must be selectively distributed!

Yun'er was in charge of selling cuteness, and went to those young men and women to try it, and a sister called it very sweet; Xue Zong was in charge of playing handsome, selectively finding a group of children, giving them rock sugar gourds, and teaching them to sing.

After a while, there was a children's song on the bank of the Bianhe River:

It is said that the ice gourd is sour, and it is wrapped in sweetness in the acid

It is said that the ice gourd is sweet, but it is wrapped in sour

The sugar gourd looks good and it is worn on bamboo sticks, symbolizing happiness and reunion

Connecting happiness and reunion in a string, there is no sorrow and no trouble......
