Chapter 4: Chopping Hands
With a huge amount of money, Jin Se came to the lively West Street to find the materials he needed after inquiring about the princess.
This is the most lively street in Yangcheng, where merchants from the north and south gather, and there are people of all colors and languages on the street.
Jin Se looked left and right curiously, and the delicious baked cakes that had just come out of the oven were fragrant and fragrant to her nose. Jin Se is hungry. She hadn't eaten since last night until today.
Mutter...... The stomach crumbled at the right time.
"Boss, how do you sell baked cakes?"
"5 Wen one, you want a few."
"Get me one." Jin Se took out a string of money, counted out 5 wen, and bought delicious baked cakes. The food I ate early in the morning was exceptionally delicious.
Jinse resisted the urge to buy another one and looked down the street for what he wanted to buy.
A moo reached Jinse's ears, and she hurriedly searched around. The effort paid off, and she made her way through the crowd to the place where the cow barked. A cow and a few lambs graze slowly in a shed.
"Little girl, are you here to buy sheep? My lamb is the cheapest on West Street. It's best to buy it back to produce milk. The woman who sold the sheep said enthusiastically.
Jin Se fixed his eyes and saw that the cow was a good cow, strong and powerful. But it wasn't the kind she needed: "I'm sorry, I'm going to buy cows." ”
"Cattle are also sold, and this is the best ploughing cattle. I'm fed the best feed. A cow costs only 20 taels, and you can go out and inquire. Who's cattle are cheaper than mine on West Street. The woman patted the cow proudly.
"People in our village rent my cattle. If it weren't for my son going to school, I wouldn't be willing to sell it. ”
Jin Se smiled bitterly: "Auntie, your cow is very good." But that's not what I'm looking for. ”
"What about the sick cow you want to eat? That's a matter of luck, the cow is a farmer's treasure. It is illegal to slaughter cattle in private. ”
The woman misunderstood that Jinse bought cattle for food.
"No, no, I'm going to buy milk." Jin Se said amazingly, this is something that everyone has basically drunk in modern times. It was a strange thing in ancient times.
The woman was stunned: "Oxen are not used to plough the fields and hoe the fields to pull carts, how can anyone drink milk." The milk of the ploughing cows is fed to the calves. She picked up a lamb and said, "You should buy a lamb, goat's milk is delicious." The elderly and children love to drink it. ”
Jin Se only shook his head: "No, I inquired before I went out." There are nomadic merchants on Daxi Street who come here to do business, do you know where? ”
If she can't buy milk, how can she carry out her business plan?
"Big sister, you're looking for a nomadic merchant, I know." The cute little sister in the robe approached Jinse. She smiled slightly, revealing two beautiful tiger teeth.
Under the guidance of the little girl, Jinse finally found the nomadic merchant.
"Tana, you're running around again." The tall man took the little girl into his arms, rubbed her hair, and gave her to her mother.
"Abba, I didn't run around. This sister is looking for a nomadic merchant. Tana pointed to Jinse.
Only then did the man see Jinse: "Distinguished guest, I am Bayar, the lion of the grassland. What goods do you need? ”
He placed his right hand in front of his heart and bowed slightly.
The first time he was saluted, Jin Se stayed in place in embarrassment. She had no choice but to clasp her fists with both hands and salute back: "Hello big brother, my surname is Zhuang, Zhuang Jinse." Do you have any milk? ”
"Milk? Cow's milk, right? "Bayard clearly didn't expect anyone to buy milk.
It won't be without! When Jin Se saw that Bayar's face was wrong, his face turned white with fright. If she couldn't buy it here, she had to go back and learn how to buy wine.
"Hahaha, yes, yes. I didn't expect someone to buy milk in this small place in Yangcheng. Wait a minute, I'll get it for you. Bayard turned to his horse, untied a horse's skin, and handed it to Jinse.
When the lid is opened, the milky aroma is overflowing, and the familiar taste seems to bring Jinse back to modern times. "This is it!" Jin Se shouted excitedly.
"Big brother, how much? I bought it. Jin Se excitedly wanted to pay for it.
"I'll send you! When we make a friend. Bayard waved his hand.
Jinse didn't expect Bayar to be so polite, so he gave her the milk. "You're welcome, big brother, I really want to buy it. Sell me as much milk as you have!" ”
It's about her future, and she has to get the deal done.
"This ......," Bayard looked at his wife, "it's not that I don't sell you. We didn't have much to bring with us when we went out in the morning. ”
"Brother Bayar, I buy milk as raw materials, and I want to buy more." Jinse explained.
Hope was just around the corner, and Jin Se didn't want to give up just like that. "Okay, I see. Having cows at home to produce milk, how much do you need? ”
It's a bit of a difficult question, and she doesn't know how many raw materials she needs to prepare to do business. If you buy too much, you will say that you can't buy it all, so you will smash it in your hands. If you buy too little and don't sell enough, you can only stare dryly when you sell out.
Now I can only take one step at a time, and try a small amount first.
Jin Se held his chin and thought for a while: "I also have to see the situation first." She pointed to the leather bag in her hand, "So that ten bags of milk will be delivered to the dealer's tavern in the south of the city tomorrow morning." I can pay a part of the deposit upfront. ”
"That's fine!" Bayar nodded, "One bag can hold 1 catty of milk, 9 Wen." Ten catties of milk are a total of 90 Wen. ”
"Yes." Jin Se took out the money and was ready to pay, but it was not expensive to pay more than 1 tael. She was ready to bleed.
He stretched out a finger: "You are the first customer in Yangcheng to buy my milk, you can give me 80 Wen." Half of the deposit is paid, 40 Wen. ”
Jin Se gave Bayar ** at a price of 80 yuan, ten catties of milk. Her ancient business ambitions have kicked off today.
After buying the milk that he had been thinking about, Jin Se bought new signs, tables and chairs on West Street, and added a lot of items to his home.
The rhythm of buying and buying can't stop at the beginning. was about to chop his hands, and Jin Se saw that his silver was missing 10 taels. But happily, everything is ready.
The pure milk bought by the herdsmen, the tea leaves in their own jars, and the large jars of sugar. Standing in front of the kitchen cauldron, Jin Se made another difficulty.
She's never done anything like it. The light fire has used up all her luck. No matter what, let's talk about it first!
I grabbed a small handful of tea leaves, and the Zhuang style cooking was all based on feeling. While the tea leaves in the pot were not paying attention, he quickly dug up a spoonful of sugar.
Tea leaves and sugar are mixed together, and puffs of green smoke immediately rise from the pot. No, there was less sugar, so Jin Se hurriedly added another spoonful to it.
The tea leaves are wrapped in sugar water and turn dark brown in a short time. Jin Se grabbed the spatula and kept stir-frying, seeing the trend of green smoke getting bigger and bigger. The smell of burnt paste permeated the entire kitchen.
