Xiuchun and Xiaocui thought about Yuan Dongchu's sales ability, but in the eyes of the steward, it was just a matter of listening to a few more words, and it was not a big deal. But if the wild vegetable practices of these country girls are really meritorious, and the dishes they make can make the master happy, the master will appreciate him more.

"Is it a recipe? Let's hear about it. The steward said.

Yuan Dongchu spoke: "Wild vegetables just taste poor, but they are very good for the body, just ask Lang Zhong about this." If you use the right cooking method, the slightly worse taste can not only be improved, but also become a unique taste......"

Yuan Dongchu opened the conversation box and first introduced the efficacy and practice of wild vegetables.

These words have been said repeatedly by her for the past month, and they are constantly improving.

It can be said that her wild vegetable marketing skills have improved every time. And this time, it is the most convincing so far.

The steward asked about the price of wild vegetables, and seriously compared with Yuan Dongchu twice about the method of stir-fried shrimp with garlic salad purslane and spring bamboo shoots and shepherd's cabbage, and paid for the dishes quickly, a total of 12 Wen.

Then, according to the established routine, Yuan Dongchu said: "If you don't set off for the time being, you can make wild vegetables to taste first." If we are satisfied, we will be able to deliver some later, and perhaps more wild herbs to make and store even more delicious. ”

More how? Didn't you say it all at once? The steward immediately heard that Yuan Dongchu's words were not interesting.

He also asked meaningfully: "Listen to this girl, do you have other methods of wild vegetables?" ”

Yuan Dongchu smiled and curtled his knees back: "Yes, but it depends on whether the wild vegetables are suitable for your family's taste." ”

The steward thought for a moment and said, "Purslane salad with garlic should be done quickly, right?" ”

"It's a quick dish." Yuan Dongchu replied.

"You wait here for a while. Okay, I'll have someone call you back, and by the way, I'll return your basket. The steward beckoned to the servant, and took the wild herbs gathered in a basket and went on board.

Yuan Dongchu exchanged a knowing smile with the three of them, and also turned around and waited at the edge. There was a big rock there, and the three of them could sit and wait at a leisurely pace.

As soon as he took a few steps, two people approached him.

Yuan Dongchu looked at the dress and demeanor of the two, this is to collect money.

Yuan Dongchu and the three stopped.

Selling things on the docks, especially when outsiders do business at their own docks, they have to pay protection fees...... Phew, it's a string again...... It's not called a protection fee, but it's always a matter of paying money.

"Foreign, huh?" A stocky man asked.

"Yes, we are from Yanpu Town downstream." Yuan Dongchu replied.

"Did you pay the money?" The sturdy one continued to ask.

Xiuchun, who collected the money, immediately took out the money bag he was holding in his hand and asked, "What we are preparing, how many documents do we have to pay?" ”

The leaner man looked at the three of them a few times and sneered, "How many Wen? Your wild vegetable business is doing well, and no one else can interfere except you. Such an exclusive sale, only a few pennies? What about sending Hanako?! ”

Yuan Dongchu took the money bag from Xiuchun's hand, and reached out to grab the twelve copper plates, "We sold wild vegetables just now, and we only got these twelve wen, how much did the eldest brother say we should pay?" ”

Seeing these twelve copper coins, these two people were obviously stunned for a moment, is this really these?

Speaking of which, this situation is not surprising, if it is a very profitable business, it is the adults of the three of them who come forward, and they will never let the three little girls do it.

But the two of them didn't give up, and the sturdy man asked, "I see, the three of you have sold wild vegetables but don't plan to leave, what are you going to do here?" ”

When the words came out, he suddenly felt a blessing, "Ho! I was almost deceived by you, you stay here, you must wait for the reward! If the nobles on the ship are satisfied with eating wild vegetables, and a little change is revealed between their fingers, it is also a great amount. ”

It's just that when it comes to the satisfaction of the noble man eating wild vegetables, his tongue is obviously a little knotted, and it seems that even he, the person who speaks, does not believe that this kind of thing will happen.

Xiuchun is straight, and he is so angry when he hears it.

If it weren't for the fear of being known that their wild vegetable business was really profitable, she would have really questioned: there are more people selling food at the docks everywhere, how much money can be sold, that is people's ability. I've never heard of an unexpected share of the sale to be paid for the dock silver!

Although she couldn't say this, she couldn't hold back after all: "Two big brothers, we stay here and wait to get our basket back." I just said that if the nobles on the ship feel that the taste of wild vegetables is acceptable, we will pick some nearby and sell them to them. ”

The two sneered: "A young girl, but her mind is not small!" I am not satisfied with getting a reward, and I still want to dig wild vegetables in our field and get another one. Is Shuitang Town so easy to take advantage of? Leave the money behind and get out of here! If we can sell wild vegetables, we will find someone to dig them up and sell them ourselves! ”

These two people are obviously the wharf forces of Shuitang Town, the kind known as the head snake. This kind of force exists in all docks, but Yuan Dongchu is not afraid of this.

The reason why the terminal can operate smoothly is because it is under the jurisdiction of the government.

Although the wharf forces are tacitly approved by the government, their operation also needs to meet a delicate balance.

The buyer of wild vegetables will never be a silent and small people.

Just like the passenger ship in front of him, it is not ordinary people who can rent such a ship.

It can also be seen from the words and deeds of the steward just now that the identity of this family is not simple, unlike the housekeeper of a wealthy family in a small place, who is ignorant and scolds people at every turn.

The powerful family bought some vegetables from the vendors, and before the money for the vegetables was settled, some people made it difficult for them to oppress the vegetable sellers under their noses...... Don't the powerful lose face?

Yuan Dongchu was sure that even the head snake with the power of the dock would not dare to do anything to the three of them at this time and in this place.

"In this case, let's take back the basket and leave, hoping that the two eldest brothers will be accommodating." Yuan Dongchu said.

She hadn't planned to dig wild vegetables again, and what she had just said to the steward was just a pretext to lead to more wild vegetable practices.

As for whether there was any reward, she believed that these two would never dare to stay in front of the steward of the big ship and monitor the steward's words and deeds.

Moreover, they also have precautions against taking bounties.

In the past, they received rewards, in order to prevent being seen, when handing over the money, Yuan Dongchu negotiated with people, Xiuchun and Xiaocui would stand in different positions, using their bodies to block the sight of outsiders.

After the settlement is clear, the three will leave by boat as soon as possible.

Unless there is a special reason for the operation of passenger vessels along the river, it will not be difficult for them to sail at the wharves, which is the most basic rule for the normal operation of the river.

As long as you go back to Yanpu Town, it will be your own territory, and the safety will be much better.

"Leave the money bag and get out of here, who knows if you got back only the basket, or if you want to get something else in our town......" The stout man was about to continue, but was stopped by his companion and gave him a look.
