Chapter 44: Selling Vegetables
"Mother, you still sell me." Huang Xiaosan looked at Jiang Nuan sincerely, "This is simpler!" β
He knows best that he is two pounds, and this one really can't be done.
Even if you learn Jiang Nuan's cooking skills, you can't do it.
The chef of the restaurant is only three taels of silver a month.
"It's not worth so much silver if you sell it," Jiang Nuan said with a poisonous tongue, "Don't worry, I will definitely let you do it." β
Huang Xiaosan wanted to say something, but Jin came over with a basin, "Mother, second sister-in-law, Xianggong, it's time to eat, come and clean your hands." β
"Eat first, if you have anything to say, you will talk about it after eating." After Jiang Nuan finished speaking, he took the lead and walked over.
The food in the county town is better than that of the Huang family, a bowl of millet porridge with peanuts and a plate of stir-fried cabbage.
I don't know if it's because there is no pollution, the cabbage is particularly delicious, sweet and silky, and has a unique fragrance.
It doesn't taste crispy, but a little soft and glutinous, but, unexpectedly, it meets the taste of ginger warmth.
"Jiaojiao, do we still have cabbage at home? Turnips will do the same. She suddenly thought of a way to make money.
"Mother, we have almost eaten cabbage, only five or six, and there are more radishes, about 100 catties."
"Do other people have it? Let's buy some and sell them as side dishes when the time comes. β
Hearing the word selling money, Huang Xiaosan immediately came to his senses, "Mother, there are a lot of cabbages left in the building, otherwise, let's buy it." β
In the autumn, Wuweilou entered two thousand catties of cabbage, and after the opening of the whole building, the business of Wuweilou was sluggish, and the cabbage was left and kept in the cellar.
Jiang Nuan stopped his chopsticks and turned to Huang Xiaosan, "How many of you have?" How is it sold? If it is appropriate, talk to the gold shopkeeper, our family wants it all. β
"I'll ask." Huang Xiaosan put down the dishes and chopsticks, and didn't ask Jiang Nuan what he wanted the cabbage to do, and ran out directly.
"Mother," Xie Shi's eyes were shining, "You want to make side dishes, will you take me with you?" β
"Definitely bring," Jiang Nuan explained, "I want to make some spicy cabbage and sour radish, this one needs to be prepared, and the whole family has to go out." β
"Mother," Kim asked tentatively, "I can also join us?" β
She is the daughter of the golden shopkeeper, so she should be avoided.
However, the thought of being left out by his family makes me feel uncomfortable.
"Of course," Jiang Nuan said with a smile, "This is a major event in our family, so it's good to get involved." β
There are many ways to make money, but there are not many that cross the road without being eye-catching.
The conditions of the Huang family, Jiang Nuan knows in his heart that it is urgent to make money to improve his life.
She had the ability, but she couldn't explain where the money came from.
Besides, it is not a good thing to suddenly get rich, only by walking steadily step by step, can we go more steadily and further, and will not be overwhelmed by a storm.
"Well, thank you," Kim smiled happily, "I'll definitely do things with my heart." β
"Well, I believe."
Jin's eyes, who were fed a bowl of chicken soup, instantly lit up, and he couldn't wait to immediately roll up his sleeves to prove himself, "Mother, look good, I will definitely be able to do a good job." β
"I'm definitely better than you," Xie said, not to be outdone, clenched his fists, "Look, I won't give you a chance." β
Rub!
The two stood up together, glanced at each other, and both saw the raging flames of war in each other's eyes.
Seeing this, Jiang Nuan couldn't cry or laugh.
Two bear children, don't let people eat well?
How adult, as naΓ―ve as seven or eight-year-old children, Jiang Nuan feels that the little five are more mature than them.
"Sit down for me," Jiang Nuan patted the table, "Eat well, the rice is cold." β
Huang Xiaosan ate half of it and ran out, and the two of them didn't eat either, and it is estimated that half of these meals will be left.
Can't waste food, it's not that I'm short-tempered, and after comforting myself, Jiang Nuan continued to eat breakfast slowly.
After breakfast, without waiting for Huang Xiaosan to come back, Jiang Nuan excused herself to go out and start her vegetable business.
"Mother, where do you want to go? I'll be with you. Xie Shi spoke softly.
"No," Jiang Nuan refused, "Jiaojiao, the third daughter-in-law is still young and has never been in Huangjiakou, you should tell her about the situation in Huangjiakou carefully today, lest she go back and catch the blind." β
"Mother," this made Xie a little reluctant, "These things will be the same in the future." β
"It's different," Jiang Nuan shook his index finger, "Understand it early, digest it early, be good, take good care of the third daughter-in-law for your mother, and your mother will go out for a while, and I'll be back soon." β
didn't wait for Xie to be coquettish, Jiang Nuan slipped away directly.
She went out and noticed that there was no one and hid directly in the space.
Xie Jiao chased after her, looked at the surrounding group, and didn't see a figure, so she had to go back.
Jiang Nuan entered the space, plucked a bamboo basket of green vegetables, and wrapped himself tightly in a headscarf before coming out.
Sharp eyes glanced around, and when they saw that no one was there, they quickly slipped out.
No, she couldn't explain the extra dishes at all!
Jiang Nuan walked out with a basket of vegetables, and in an instant, he became the focus of everyone.
"Good watery greens, the wax moon hasn't passed yet, why are there greens?"
"No, there is still mud on the roots, just pulled out of the ground, fresh, I want to buy some."
"I also want to buy it, I have eaten cabbage and radish for a winter, and I have long been tired of it, so I can finally change the taste."
"You can pull it down, there are such fresh vegetables before the winter is over, rarer than gold, that is what we can eat?"
"How do you speak? What if people are willing to sell it cheaply? After the man finished speaking, he walked towards Jiang Nuan, "Auntie, how do you sell this green vegetable?" β
Jiang Nuan looked at the visitor in confusion.
She doesn't know how to sell it!
This was the first time in two lifetimes that I had done business, and I didn't know what to do at all.
There are no greens at this time, how does she know the pricing?
"Or," Jiang Nuan cautiously tested, "You say a price?" I'll see if it's appropriate? β
Hearing this, the man's eyes moved, and he said tentatively, "How about a tael of silver?" β
Hearing this, Jiang Nuan took a deep look at this shabby and unattractive man.
Unexpectedly, this person is quite rich.
Feeling Jiang Nuan's inquiring gaze, Song Fu smiled bitterly, and was really dissatisfied.
Also, he is indeed a little unkind, and the price is lower.
Thinking that the old lady at home loved these fresh things the most, he was ruthless, and he raised the price.
Jiang Nuan was about to agree, but he heard the man say in pain, "Three taels of silver, no more." β
Song Fu looked at Jiang Nuan aggrievedly, "Auntie, I can only contribute so much money, an eighty-year-old mother to support, and an eight-year-old ......."
"Okay," Jiang Nuan interrupted him directly, "I agreed, pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other." β
"Really?" Song Fu asked incredulously.
Then, he hurriedly took out three taels of silver from his sleeve and handed it to Jiang Nuan, grabbed the bamboo basket, and ran away.
