When building the oven, she divides the baking space into layers, and when the time comes, you can directly put the mud baking tray on it, and it doesn't matter if it's thicker, you don't have to worry about hanging on the side.

Three more ovens were built, so that four could be baked at the same time.

The capital is far away, so take it with you more at a time!

In addition to selling in her shop, she also has to go to some people and sell them in the capital.

In this way, you can get the most benefit before other dim sum imitations in the capital!

These are not difficult points, she is confident in her moon cake recipe, and she is even more confident in the craftsmanship of these moon cake sisters, but there is another difficulty in this, some troubles.

That's how to get to the capital.

It is said that it is close to the capital, even if it is a carriage, it will take half a day, unless you leave in the middle of the night, and it will be morning when you arrive in the capital.

If you can shorten the distance before drying, it can save a lot of trouble.

She thought about it carefully, except for making modern things, such as bicycles, but this is too difficult, especially the chain, and the technology here may not be able to build it...... Then, we can only find the right solution from the existing life experience!

She thought about it, there is another way to get into Beijing quickly - by water!

The waterway is not only convenient for transporting goods, but more importantly, the distance is short, the speed is fast, it saves time, and people are comfortable to sit.

The only means of transportation they have is ox carts, and if they go in the middle of the night, people can't sleep, and they can only carry a limited amount of things.

In the memory of the original body, there is a big river in the capital, which crosses the capital, and it is not clear where it flows.

So she planned to ask her father, preferably by water.

She asked a few uncles to help dry the oven with firewood, layer the first one with mud, and then make some baking trays that match the size of the oven, so that you don't need an iron baking tray when you turn around, and it is easy to take it out.

After explaining, Tian Qingan went to the small courtyard, her father was not there, and she would not be able to come back after a while, she was waiting next to her, and by the way, she picked up tools and made four doors, so that she could block the heat at the door of the stove and do an activity, which was laborious, but this one can be opened and closed at will, which is very convenient.

As soon as I made a father, I came back, and the rest was handed over to Liang Zi and them.

The father and daughter sat down at the door, Tian Dazhuang took out an oiled paper bag from his pocket and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Dad, where does the river in the capital go? Far from us? ”

"You mean the Jinshui River, right? After flowing out, it is connected with the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, not far from us, and it is only half an hour's road to the north...... Why do you ask this? ”

Tian Qingan took out a piece of peach mud mooncake, "Dad, you taste it." ”

"What's that called?"

"Mooncake...... Is it tasty? ”

"Delicious...... You came up with it? ”

"Yes, Dad's Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, we plan to go to the county and the capital to sell this kind of moon cakes, plus there are only three ox carts in Shangtian Village, too few, not much at a time, I thought, if I can take the waterway to sell more...... There is no such moon cake in Beijing, and this new moon cake will definitely sell well as soon as it comes out! ”

"The taste is really good, a peach smell, delicious!"

"You don't look at what it's made of, the filling inside is peach puree, and the outer skin is white flour and pumpkin puree...... Don't talk about this, Dad, what do you think of taking the waterway? ”

"Yes, this is very cheap, it's fast, it's an hour and a half to the capital, do you want to sell it when you want to? I thought about saying hello to the boatman as soon as possible, and also, in addition to the moon cakes, the ox cart will have to be transported to the boat at that time, and the waterway will not enter the gate of the capital, and there is still a long way to the market, and how to eat at noon, what if it can't be sold...... Have you thought about all of this? ”

"Okay, we'll go in the morning and come back in the evening, but this will have to charter a boat, which may be a bit expensive...... Therefore, this time the whole village may have to mobilize to go to the capital, in addition to moon cakes, cold skin and skewers can also follow, and I will ask Aunt Chen if she would like to go together. ”

"How much are you going to sell this mooncake?"

"Sold in bulk, it's going to be cheaper, five hundred wen a catty, put it in our shop, divided into stalls, the cheapest five taels, the most expensive one hundred taels!"

"Why don't you just be a bandit!" Tian Dazhuang said angrily.

"Dad, don't think it's expensive, you'll know why when you get back!"

After that, he hurried out of the small courtyard, if she said to her father like this, the ingredients must not be the same, for example, a pound of five hundred wen, the filling in it must not all use peach puree, so how many peaches is enough?

You can have half of the winter melon and half of the peach puree, the cost has come down, the price is low, and the ordinary people in the capital can also taste it!

The crust is made of white flour, although she thinks it is more delicious to add some pumpkin, but it can't stand the ancient white flour is much more expensive than pumpkin.

And if you sell it in the shop, in addition to the best filling, you have to buy some honey, and there is the crust, in addition to pumpkin, you can also use sweet potatoes, and the pattern is naturally better, which is not sold pound by pound, but boxed!

Why can moon cakes in the previous life be sold for hundreds of yuan for four yuan, there is neither gold nor jade in them, there is no difference from the bulk ones in the supermarket, at most the taste is more delicate, but there are still so many people to buy them?

One is of course a gift, and the other is packaging, moon cakes are actually not valuable, what is valuable is those packaging!

She could have followed this idea and made some beautiful box packaging.

It's a pity that she remembered it too late, otherwise they could have made the boxes themselves and painted them sooner...... Now it's too late, either you won't be in the gift box tomorrow, or you'll have to order some boxes.

However, this is for more than twenty taels, like five taels or ten taels, they can make their own.

After talking about the number of moon cakes and the requirements again, Tian Qingan returned to the small courtyard.

Let Liang Zi and the seventeen of them put aside the tasks assigned by their father first, and make wooden boxes in a unified manner.

She painted five types of boxes on the spot, clamshell, slide, top and bottom separate, combined, and hollow.

Draw the general shape, carve it to her and Feiying, as for the graphics, auspicious, I want to go, if I can't think of it, I will go to the other side to find Tian Qingyang and ask him to help paint, she also reminded by the way, "Feiying, your carving style is rough, if you want my eldest brother to help you paint, it's best to focus on natural scenery, don't talk about flowers, birds, cordyceps!" ”

In addition, the five styles of boxes have four patterns each, and the number of moon cakes in each different pattern is also different, so it is necessary to carve out a concave and convex position at the bottom of the box in advance, one position is a moon cake, a minimum of four pieces, and a maximum of twelve pieces.
