But how easy is it to do this? If you want to sell a bento, you must have the ingredients. Not only are vegetables and meat coarse and fine grains indispensable, but also the people who are always on guard against the inspectors and find a temporary foothold for themselves in the county, which is also convenient for the time to get off work, and a bunch of pots and pans have a place to store.

At the end of the day, you have to have money! It is far from enough to rely on the dozens of yuan given by his father Shui Daquan, at this moment, Shui Yao is thinking about how to get more profits on this small potato.

After going around the backyard and looking at the big and red tomatoes that were growing, Shui Yao had a flash of inspiration, picked a few and rushed to the kitchen.

I saw that she boiled a pot of water numbly, and then put a cross knife on the washed tomatoes, took them to hot water and scalded them, and with a light hand, the tomato skin was all peeled off. After that, Mizuhara cuts the tomatoes into pieces the size of a little thumb, adds the chopped onions, and puts them in a pot to make tomato sauce.

As the temperature of the firewood gets warmer and higher, the tomato chunks gradually turn into thick juice, and large bright red bubbles bubble up in the pot. When the time is almost up, Shui Yao sprinkles white sugar, adds a little fine salt, and the tomato sauce is ready.

There are very few snacks for children in this era, and Shui Yao feels that they are too pitiful when he thinks about it. In fact, potatoes are really a treasure, not only in every household, but also very full.

In terms of practice, steaming, cooking, roasting and frying can be everything. The reason why she makes a lot of tomato sauce is because tossing toast with fried potatoes is absolutely delicious. After all, in the era when she lived, the scene of children lining up in a long line to buy "crazy little potatoes" was too sensational, if this thing was taken and sold, Shui Yao believed that it would not be long before the start-up capital for selling lunch boxes would be eight or nine.

The next day, Mizuhara divided the potatoes from the ground into one slice, while she cut the other into evenly sized hob pieces, blanched them and fried them in lard. The flakes were sprinkled with salt and paprika, while the chunks of potatoes were coated in the tomato sauce she had prepared in advance. When the strong fragrance swept through Shui Yao's nostrils, even she, who had lived for decades in her previous life, was still so hungry that she couldn't wait to swallow her tongue.

On Sunday, in addition to boiling tomato sauce, Shui Yao used the rest of the time to fold a lot of small paper packets, and then put the potatoes into different paper packets. This time, the two flavors were added together to make a hundred bags, and a basket full of them was placed.

The next day, when Shui Yao sent his younger brother to school, Shui Yun clearly felt that the back basket on his sister's body looked very heavy. Thinking of the packets of crispy potato chips that Shui Yao gave him some time ago, Shui Yun's greedy hala almost flowed out.

"Sister, what do you have in this basket? Why don't I carry it for you? ”​

Looking at Shui Yun's radiant eyes full of longing, Shui Yao could also figure out with his feet that his potato chips were remembered by his younger brother again. Thinking that the effect of the marketing strategy that he half-sold and half-gave away last time seemed to be good, Shui Yao smiled slightly, and took out two packets of potato chips from the back basket and handed them to Shui Yun.

"Wow! Sister, you are too godly! Is this red also a potato? Give me two more packs! ”​

After saying that, he couldn't wait to tear open his pocket, took two pieces of potatoes and hurriedly stuffed them into his mouth.

"Wait a minute, don't worry. Yunyun, you can taste this red potato first, if it is delicious, you can go to the class and talk to your best classmates, our potatoes have a new taste. ”

Since I took the first sip of Shuiyun, I was impressed by the sweet and sour taste. He hadn't eaten potatoes since he was so old, and it turned out to be sweet and sour, and it was no exaggeration to say that this was even better than the crispy potato chips made by his sister before.

So, Shui Yun kept eating one bite after another, and he didn't even bother to answer Shui Yao's words, so he had to nod like a chicken pecking rice, and when he arrived at the school gate, Shui Yao handed Shui Yun a few more bags of potatoes and sent his younger brother away.

After Shui Yun left, Shui Yao found Li Xuemei standing opposite the school. Seeing that Shui Yao had just given Shui Yun a lot of potato chips, and then contacted her with such a big basket on her back, Li Xuemei laughed out loud, and her words were full of mockery.

"Yo, you little girl still dare to come? What did I tell you last week? The most important thing to be a man is to know each other, weigh and weigh how many pounds and taels you have! Now that basically no one buys your things, what are you still making a fuss about? ”​

As soon as Shui Yao heard it, he knew that Li Xuemei wanted to be crooked again. She must have felt that she was young and ignorant, and she made such a big basket of things that she could only give to her family to eat.

This kind of imagination made Shui Yao feel amused: "Eldest sister, who do you say is not self-sufficient?" Don't be too busy mocking, the best is yet to come! Don't forget, it's only Monday, and the game between the two of us won't really end until the end of the week. When the time comes, there will be a verdict on who will win and lose, so don't be too happy! ”

After speaking, Shui Yao no longer paid attention to Li Xuemei, who was muttering non-stop, and found a place not far from the school gate to put the back basket on the ground, took out a few packets of samples of two different flavors of potatoes, and put them out.

Sure enough. After a while, a large number of students came over one after another. When they saw the potatoes in front of Shui Yao, as if they had seen a new continent, they all felt very novel, and they asked in a chattering voice.

"Beautiful sister, what's this red thing? How much is a pack? ”

Shui Yao saw that the attention of these children was really attracted, so he picked up a bag of potato wedges and handed it to the skinny little boy, saying.

"Little brother, this is called Crazy Little Potato, and it is not the same flavor as the potato chips next to it! You can buy it and try it first. The price is the same as potato chips, a small pack of four cents, if you buy three packs, give your sister a dime. ”

After hearing this, the little boy directly asked for two packets of crazy little potatoes, and by the way, he took another bag of potato chips, and handed Shui Yao a dime.

"Sister, I'm sorry, I went to buy potato chips over there for a cheap time. But if you try it, it's not as delicious as yours at all. Don't worry, I'll be here for you in the future. I'll buy this potato wedge and try it first, and if it's delicious, I'll let my classmates come! ”​

"Thank you."

Listening to the little brother's words, Shui Yao felt very warm in his heart. With the little boy's lead, business has done a lot better. Especially this crazy little potato, there are quite a few elementary school students who show quite a high level of enthusiasm. So, nearly a hundred packets of potato chips were sold in less than half an hour.

On the other side, Li Xuemei saw that the scene on Shui Yao's side was so exciting, and her eyes were about to pop out in shock. She really couldn't figure it out, obviously last week, her business was still in full swing, and Shui Yao was deserted and no one cared about it. But why, after only two days, why has everything changed?

Seeing that in the blink of an eye, Shui Yao's big basket of things had all been sold, and Li Xuemei's heart was burning like a fire, and she was getting more and more anxious. So, regardless of the student's resistance, he reached out and stopped a child who was in a hurry to go to class, half coerced and half coaxed.

"Kid, haven't you always liked Auntie's stuff before? Why don't I see you buy it today? Look at how good Auntie's potato chips are today, a bag is only three cents, buy a pack and take it away! ”

But what Li Xuemei never expected was that the little boy didn't even listen to her words, and ran away directly.

"Hey! Don't you run......"

Seeing that no matter what she called, it was useless, Li Xuemei couldn't wait to bite a mouthful of silver teeth, at this moment, seeing Shui Yao's face full of smiles, the resentment accumulated over the days could no longer be suppressed, Li Xuemei rushed towards Shui Yao with a "rub".

"You damn girl, don't get fucking complacent too soon! The old lady warns you, don't make a fool of yourself here, and make some messy tricks! ”

Shui Yao saw that Li Xuemei had been carried away by jealousy at this time, her eyes were red, and her hair was almost standing on end. The whole person is like a defeated hen, spewing ~ fire everywhere, and I can't wait to immediately burn Shui Yao, a thorn in the flesh of the eye, into ashes!

"Yo! Li Xuemei, you don't have to pick thorns here! It's because your own things are too unpalatable to sell, and you're like a flamingo, who are you scared of? It's embarrassing to be here, it's really disgusting! ”

Shui Yao has always thought that he is not humble or arrogant, and he is a generous person, and he used to value harmony in the business field, and he was kind to others, and he could not have conflicts. However, Li Xuemei is really too deceitful. There is a saying that "you can't bear it, you don't need to endure it anymore", she Li Xuemei ran to her head and, so what's the point?

After being angry, Li Xuemei couldn't say anything angry, choked for a long time, and had to point her finger at Shui Yao and warn: "You little girl, don't you just have shit luck today?" What's the big deal? Bah! Look at your pride, I can't wait to poke a hole in the sky! Wait and see, you won't even be able to cry in a few days! ”

Shui Yao looked at the angry Li Xuemei, and didn't take her insignificant warning to heart at all, just thought it was a Chinese pastoral dog barking: "Yo, let's go?" You can't sell so many potato chips, I think you have to feed your pigs, dogs and chickens for a long time, right? Don't let these beasts eat and be silent early in the morning, delaying you to do business again! ”
