Chapter 9: The Beginning of Business
I haven't eaten meat for a long time, and Yang Cui dreams of braised pig's trotters, braised pork ribs, and braised pork.
Is it possible that I will not eat pork in the future?
Yang Cui decided to raise pigs!
Of course, she didn't want to raise pigs herself, after all, cleaning the pigsty was not an easy job.
Yang Cui thought of her uncle An Dafu's family.
Just do it, and after breakfast in the morning, Yang Cui went to Anjia Village.
For Yang Cui's arrival, the An family was very surprised.
"Uncle and aunt, I'm here today to talk about business."
"What's the matter?"
"I once saw some records about pigs in books, saying that in some places, pigs can be raised to two or three hundred catties, and pork can also be used to make a lot of delicacies."
An Dafu Wen and his wife were shocked, and their faces were incredulous: "There are still people who eat pork? Can you really raise two or three hundred catties? ”
"Of course it's true! And the fat on the pig's body, you can refine oil, oil can be fried, in short, the pig is full of treasures, now no one raises pigs, I want to build a pig farm, be the first person to eat crabs, can my uncle and aunt help me? ”
An Dafu: "How do you want us to help?" ”
"Then I will definitely not let you help in vain, I have two sets of plans here, one I pay to buy piglets to build a pigsty, you help me raise, I give you wages, you and your aunt and a month a tael of silver, but I don't have so much wages for you now, I have to wait until the end of the year to sell the pig to have money, but I can write an IOU for you, two, do not pay wages, directly calculate dividends, I pay for the method of raising pigs, you contribute, when the pigs are slaughtered, the whole pig will be sold to me according to eight cents a pound, and the money from selling pigs will be four or six cents, you six and I will four."
Wen was curious: "Do you have that much money?" ”
"I have the money to get out of the piglets and build the pigsty, but if I want to divide the money, I have to wait until I sell the pork, I am very confident, my uncle and aunt can think about it, and then give me an answer in two days."
"How much can you pay?" Wen asked again.
"Uncle and aunt have already said that I still have the money to buy piglets and build pigsties, so you want to do it together."
"But didn't you say that all the money was lost?"
Yang Cui didn't answer, and her impression of Wen's became worse in an instant, how could anyone keep asking how much money people had? It's so uninteresting.
Yang Cui said: "You are my elders and relatives, I just looked for you for the first time, pigs, I must raise them, if you are not optimistic and do not participate, I will also go to find others to do it together." ”
It's really not good, raise it yourself! I can't go on anymore, and I can't still dislike this and that.
Wen was a little unhappy, feeling that Yang Cui didn't tell her the truth, and answered the question lightly.
An Dafu is thinking about the feasibility of raising pigs that Yang Cui said.
"Uncle and aunt, you discussed first, and after thinking about coming to Ji'an Village to find me, while the sun is not poisonous, I will go back first."
"For such a big matter, we have to discuss it, you can bring some plums back to eat." An Dafu used a basket to fill Yang Cui with some plums and peaches.
On the side of Anjia Village, almost every household has a few plum trees and peach trees.
Seeing these fruits, Yang Cui suddenly had an inspiration, maybe these things can be used!
"Uncle, I won't take the peaches and plums, you ask Xiaohai to send twenty catties of each to my house, and I will buy them at the market price."
"What to buy? It's not worth much, Xiaohai will send something to your sister. ”
"Okay, it's not enough at home, I'll pick some more." An Xiaohai is very refreshing.
"Thank you, uncle, and Xiaohai also thank you."

After Yang Cui left, Wen was not very happy, and complained to An Dafu: "This Xiaocui has a lot of strange eyes now, and he still hides everything from us." ”
An Dafu: "What do you want to say?" ”
"Didn't she lose her money? Where did the money come from to buy piglets to build a pigsty? I don't think she lost her money, and when I asked her just now, she didn't tell me the truth. ”
When An Dafu heard this, he said angrily: "Will you tell others how much silver your family has?" ”
"Are we someone else?"
"You don't think about what you have or don't, but now you still think about whether you want to raise pigs for her."
"Can you make money? No one eats this thing, even if it is raised to two or three hundred catties, no one eats it, and it is a waste of money to delay the effort, it is better to keep it and live a good life with that money, what are women tossing these for? Finding a good man to marry is the top priority. ”
An Dafu fell silent.
After leaving Anjia Village, Yang Cui went to the county seat, and she had to prepare some materials.
Yang Cui plans to make some dried perilla plums and perilla peaches and ginger, which are the best to eat this season.
Yang Cui bought six jars, two catties of sugar and two catties of vinegar, spent more than 500 yuan, and went to buy a grass carp.
Yang Cui put the rock sugar, rice vinegar, and fish she bought in the jar, so that others could only see the jar.
Got on the mule bus back to the village, and sure enough, I met two more people from the same village, and when I saw Yang Cui buy a few cans, I couldn't help but inquire again, and Yang Cui prevaricated with pickles.
When he returned home, An Xiaohairen had already left, but Yang Cui saw plums and peaches in the house.
After the meal, she took the second and third girls to pick perilla in the mountains.
When they came back, the mother and daughter were carrying three baskets of perilla.
After drinking a sip of water and resting for a while, Yang Cui took them to wash peaches and plums, cut peaches and plums, and were very busy.
By dusk, six jars were full, three cans of perilla peach ginger, and three cans of perilla dried plums.
"Mother, can these really be sold for money?" Erya was very excited.
Sanya has an inexplicable trust in Yang Cui: "My mother said yes, definitely yes!" ”
"I'll definitely find a way to sell it! Exchange it for money and buy delicious food for our two and three girls. ”
The dried perilla plums should be dried in three days, and the cans should be opened and dried to eighty percent before they are completed, and the perilla peaches and ginger should be marinated in the jar overnight, and they can be eaten the next morning.
Early the next morning, Yang Cui took out perilla peach ginger, and the mother and daughter tasted it themselves.
"It's delicious!" The second and third Ya exclaimed.
Yang Cui also tasted it, the taste was really good, she took out a bowl for the two little girls to eat, and she took the rest to the city to find buyers, and the target customer was the restaurant.
At this time, Yang Cui found that she didn't even have a decent dress, and she was afraid that she would be blasted out if she didn't go in.
Yang Cui came to the ready-to-wear store with her things first and bought new clothes, the material is not good, but it is not the worst, and people look more energetic after wearing it.
Yang Cui also inquired with Buzhuang about the situation of the largest restaurant in the lower city.
Subsequently, Yang Cui came to the largest restaurant in the county - Stargazing Building!
"Guest officer, please inside, what do you want to eat?" Xiao Er was extremely enthusiastic.
Yang Cui looked up and down at the largest restaurant in the local area, well, the antique building, the decoration is luxurious, and now that it has just arrived, the seating rate has reached seventy or eighty percent, and the business is hot.
