Chapter 179: A gentleman loves money and takes it in a proper way

Such days have passed in a few months.

Foods such as hot pot, spicy hot, and steamed vegetables are worthy of being tested by modern people, and finally bloomed all over the country, and even went abroad and bloomed all over the world.

In this medieval era, when there were no chili peppers, the spicy tang of the three friends conquered the people of Chang'an with its unique taste of spicy and fragrant, and became the hottest streetside novelty in Chang'an City at the beginning of the year.

Think the first day of opening is a market?

Then the next day, the third day...... Until a month later, there were more diners every day than the day before, so that the three friends knew what the real market was.

However, this business is too good, how others don't know, Liu Chenxing is laughing when he sleeps to make a lot of money, but he is so tired that he doubts his life.

Malatang, the stall is out at noon every day, and the stall is closed at the beginning of the year, and the business hours are equivalent to 11 o'clock in the morning to 3 o'clock in the afternoon in modern times.

Don't look at the daily work time is only two hours, four hours, but you are really busy with your feet not touching the ground.

In order to spend the afternoon study time selling Malatang, Liu Chenxing has to get up at least Yin Zheng every morning, that is, get up at four o'clock in the morning and start reading and practicing in the morning.

An hour later, almost seven o'clock in the morning, Uncle Liu gave a lesson to their brothers and sisters, and then after the class at half past nine, they had to rush to the stall immediately, burn the firewood to boil the red and white pots, and arrange the ingredients of the various shabu-shabu pots one by one, it was almost noon, and the diners came one after another.

Finally busy to close the stall, and when the pots and pans and seasonings were collected and put away at Xue Yuan's residence, the drumming of the night ban began, and their brothers and sisters didn't even have time to drink saliva, so they had to rush back to Yongchongfang before the last drum fell.

Twilight eats a casual deal in the kitchen, and then still can't rest.

The West Market opened in the middle of the day, and when she went out of the stall every day, Liu Qingshan was the first to rush into the West Market, buy all kinds of ingredients, and then use a horse to carry the ingredients directly to Pingkangfang, leaving half of the ingredients for Xue Yuan's maid Ah Zhen to deal with, and half of the ingredients were taken home together when the stall was closed, and their brothers and sisters dealt with it at night.

Pingkangfang has a large flow of people, and as the popularity of Malatang gradually opens, the supply exceeds demand every day, and the ingredients they sell every day have also expanded from 150 catties to 200 catties.

Therefore, every night, their brother and sister have to process at least 100 catties of ingredients, and they will never be able to run away for an hour.

However, two hundred catties of ingredients sounds like a lot, and according to the large portions, it is only more than three hundred and thirty bowls.

They have a total of ten tables, four seats at one table, seven or eight seats in a crowd, according to each table is full, and everyone orders a dish, it will be over seven or eight times, and it is really sold out in less than two hours a day.

As a result, Aunt Liu's spicy tang became a limited supply.

She didn't want to do hunger marketing, and it turned out to be hunger marketing.

As a hot pot lover, well versed in the charm of hot pot's spicy and fragrant fragrance, Liu Chenxing actually started from the intention of selling Malatang, and he already had a prosperous business in his heart, but it was not good to say that it was not good, and he still had to have a plan for the worst.

Now, after a month of doing it themselves, the three of them have a split account.

One or two dishes can be sold for two and a half yuan, and now two hundred catties of vegetables a day can be sold out every day, which is equivalent to earning five thousand wen every day, and thirty days a month is 150,000 wen, one hundred and fifty yuan.

At the beginning, the three of them only invested a total of forty-five yuan, and now they have already earned back the capital, and even everyone has made a lot of money, Liu Chenxing dares to let go, she can't always do it herself, after all, she still has to take the imperial examination.

All of this was also planned for a long time, and it was all planned when she was recuperating from her injuries in the Wei Palace, and the person who could let her go was Cheng Lan's family next door.

Although the Cheng family is a native of Chang'an, but in addition to a self-occupied house, there is no permanent property, but the population is quite large, the old couple and two sons who married daughters-in-law, and Cheng Lan, the unmarried daughter, has seven adults, from the beginning of the willingness to earn Uncle Liu's food expenses, they know that life is tight, after all, the Cheng family's father and son are all wine doctors, and they can't earn much money.

Sure enough, a pair of Cheng family members proposed to hire a woman in the family to clean up the daily ingredients, and they immediately agreed, and asked if there was a shortage of people at the stall.

In this way, the daily washing of vegetables was done by the women of the Cheng family, and the work of entertaining guests on the stall also added Cheng Lan's two sisters-in-law, plus Azhen, and the three of them were completely liberated from selling Malatang.

As for the purchase of ingredients, they also said hello to the store, and they arranged for someone to send them over, so that Liu Qingshan would have less errands to buy every day.

Of course, in addition to Xue Yuan's close life, he has to go to the stall every day to have a look, and Liu Chenxing still has to go to the stall every once in a while.

And without these trivial things, Liu Chenxing only felt light, and now she only needs to sell the house given by "Li San", and she can prepare for the exam with peace of mind.

This morning, Uncle Liu gave a lecture in the courtyard as usual.

After class for a while, Liu Chenxing got up from the straw mat under the tree and said, "Uncle, I want to sell the house given by Li Sanlang." ”

Liu Wensu was about to go to the kitchen to serve today's lunch after finishing the lecture, when he heard Liu Chenxing's words, he stopped at the moment and said: "Ah Xing, that is the house of Pingkangfang, and the Sanjin mansion on the left is the residence of the Guozi Supervisor Lin Sai Wine, if you can live next to Lin Sai Wine, it will be of great benefit to you." ”

The words were all about the good of the house, but the tone did not mean to dissuade, and even the tone and face were full of smiles.

Liu Chenxing saw that Uncle Liu also approved of her selling the house, so he also laughed and said bluntly: "Although the house is hard to find, Li Sanlang and King Wei are too deeply involved, and the assassination on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month shows that King Wei has many political enemies." ”

"Anyone who has a way can know the original owner of the house, if I want the house, what if I am regarded as the king of Wei?" said with an embarrassed smile, "Of course, I'm soft-spoken now, and I guess no one will take a fancy to me." But be careful to sail the ship of 10,000 years, right? And I don't want to owe people for nothing. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Chenxing's eyes rolled, and he said quite proudly: "So, I plan to sell this house, and then donate all the money to the temple, so that I don't owe anyone!" ”

Looking at the little niece's smug expression, Liu Wensu's smile grew.

In order to protect his political position, and to protect himself from being controlled by others, Pingkangfang's house said no, don't want it, this choice between caution and willingness, not everyone can do it, but his little niece, who is only fourteen years old, has done it.

Thinking of this, Liu Wensu nodded approvingly: "Okay, Uncle will handle this house for you." It's April now, and the Yongzhou State Exam is imminent, so you can prepare for the exam. ”
