Seeing this conch, it is more or less clear. I was surprised that I could eat this.

"This big brother, this is not a snail in the field. If the snail is so large, the shell is thin and the color is light. This one is an iron snail, which is still a little different from a field snail. This tail is also clipped, and the cleaning is very clean and absolutely hygienic. "Du Yi didn't want to be known on the first day, it was a snail in the river, so he automatically called it an iron snail.

And in front of everyone, he picked up a river snail, sucked it lightly on that head.

The text that took the snail, learned from Du Yi's appearance, and ate the meat into his mouth.

"Well, yes, that's good. How to sell it at this price, give me a catty. With this, it tastes good. ”

The people around me were waiting for the person who tried to speak, and when they heard this evaluation, they were also a little moved. The smell wafted in waves, and it was really tempting.

Du Yi was thinking about how to sell it at the time, and he didn't think about it that much. Liu Shi thought that Du Yi said that he didn't think much about selling it to the restaurant. At this time, the two of them had nothing to pack for the guests, so they began to worry.

Liu Shi was a little embarrassed, discussed it with Du Yi, and said: "Everyone, because this iron snail is extremely troublesome to deal with, the price is not sold by catties, but sold in this bowl." A bowl is filled and the price is five cents. But we didn't have any extra bowls with us today, so I'm afraid we'll have to take your things and come and load them. ”

"I said sister-in-law, you are a businessman, and you don't have to pack things. Don't you want to do our business? If we go home and get the bowl, it will take a lot of time. ”

"That's right, big sister, you can buy some oil paper and come back to install it for us, it's okay to do business."

Liu nodded, and immediately said, "Then please wait a while, I'll go buy oil paper." ”

Today, they really didn't think about it well, and the oil paper must be bought. Even the people who sell steamed buns only need to wrap them in oiled paper and give them to their customers. Why didn't they think of it before?

"Go, we're all waiting for you. When the time comes, sister-in-law, you have to count us cheaper. ”

In the surrounding crowd, some people began to shout, asking Liu to sell it cheaper at that time.

Liu had already walked away, and Du Yi smiled: "If you buy two bowls at that time, it will be cheaper for a penny." After all, this is a small business, and it is really time-consuming, laborious, and fuel-intensive to do. Today is indeed our family's negligence, and I ask for your bearing. ”

"That's a penny, it's a penny if it's cheap." Hearing that it could be cheaper, the people around him also readily agreed. Not for anything, just for the smell of something that tastes delicious.

Du Yi thought that it would be better if there was bean paste to fry, but unfortunately there was no one at home. However, she made up her mind in her heart that when she finished selling these things, she must go to the grocery store to see if there were any of them.

"Please give way, let go!" Liu came back with the cut oil paper, but there were more and more people around. "樂" Wen "Xiao" said|

The proprietress of the noodle stall next door had a smile on her face. While everyone was waiting for Liu, those who had not eaten were all at her noodle stall and ate a bowl of noodles with meat foam.

This business is much better than it used to be. Therefore, when I saw Liu's gaze, there was also a hint of eagerness.

"Yo, sister-in-law is back. If we don't come back, our saliva will be dripping all over the ground. In the diligent waiting of everyone, it can be regarded as the return of the Liu family.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. Well, I'll give you a little more of today's bowl. ”

Liu's words are the favorite of many diners. Give a little more, the price is still the same, who is not rare?

"That's good, big sister, bring me two bowls." The first taster had not yet spoken, and when the time came, the man next to him spoke first.

As the two women were busy, when the crowd dispersed, there was not much snail left in the urn. The noodle stall next door is full of business because of Du Yi and his wife.

"Mother, why don't we go and eat a bowl of noodles, there are fewer people here, and there are not many left. Let's send it to the tavern and see if we can sell it. ”

Before Du Yi came, he told Liu that the goal of the two was still in the wine shop. The reason why I sell iron snails is to make a little money, and secondly, to be able to catch up with the wine store and prepare for the family's wine.

Liu nodded, and just when he put it away, he saw someone come over directly: "Are you selling that iron snail?" ”

The person who came was a woman in her early thirties, slightly chubby, slightly taller than Lee's, and had a shrewd face.

"Yes, I don't know if this eldest sister is going to buy it?" With a smile on his face, Du Yi asked the man who was obviously not a few years younger than Liu.

Xu was because she was called young, and when the woman heard Du Yi call her sister, a smile spread on her originally shrewd face.

"I'm the proprietress of Ho Kee Liquor Shop, and I just opened the door early this morning, and I heard that you have something to drink. Can I go to the shop? ”

Doy glanced at the crowded streets, and had to nod. If you're hungry, then wait a little longer, it's important to make money.

Ho Kee Liquor is located in the center of Crescent Town, close to the Yamen. The entire restaurant is elegantly furnished and divided into two floors. As soon as you enter the store, you will be greeted by a faint smell of sake.

"Come with me, two of you!" The proprietress of Ho Kee Liquor did not take Du Yi and Liu to the second floor, but went directly to a quiet room in the backyard.

"My surname is Cao, and my husband's surname is He. It's the proprietress of this Ho Kee wine shop, as for the title, it's up to you. Let's talk about the important thing first, I wonder if you two can take out the snail with the wine for me to taste, and then let's talk about the price? ”

Ho Kee Wine Store not only sells wine, but also food. The second floor is a private room, which is specially reserved for large families, and the first floor is used by small people. As for this backyard, it is for the housekeeper and the chef of the store. However, the two largest rooms will be vacant for the main family to entertain guests.

Whoever comes to Ho Kee Wine Shop, there is no one who does not buy wine. He remembers the rules of the wine shop, order wine first, then order food.

"This tastes really good, I don't know how much silver the big sister is going to sell? How long can it be provided for our home? ”

He Cao's family is also a down-to-earth person, although his family is wealthy, he also knows the things in the field, and when the weather is colder, I am afraid that there will be no more. Therefore, I was not polite at this time, and asked directly.

Liu glanced at Liu Cao's, then looked at Du Yi, and said directly: "Don't hide it from the eldest sister, this is a river snail, also called an iron snail." You also know our climate, and in another ten days and half a month, I'm afraid it will be gone. That time will not be until at least after May next year. But these days, we can still provide it. I'm sure you also understand the retail prices on our side. Just in case you name a price that you're happy with, we'll discuss it again. ”

Liu was smart and didn't directly say the price herself, and it was impossible for her to show the low price first.

"In this way, I will give you a pound of six cents, and you should not be too little, how about we take a large discount? Then you will not have to set up a stall and be exposed to the wind and the sun. ”

The bowl that Du Yi brought today is not big, and one and a half bowls can be filled with one and a half pounds. If it is calculated according to the price of a bowl of five cents before, now it is not cost-effective to pay six cents per catty. But He Cao is right, at least they don't have to set up stalls, and they don't have to be afraid of not being able to sell.

"That's it, eldest sister, how to do this snail, I believe you are a clever person, and you can see it clearly. How about we provide snails and you make them yourself? I'll sell this snail directly to you for five cents. Of course, I have to tell you about this detailed method, otherwise the taste may be different. In fact, there is still a lack of a seasoning, and if there is, we can sell it at a higher price in the future. "Du Yi doesn't want to be so troublesome, the family still has to fry these snails, how troublesome, it is better to teach this He Cao family directly, and earn personal favors by the way.

After all, her biggest goal is not this. She wanted to make her own wine, and when the time came, she wanted to put it here and sell it on consignment. How much you sell, how much you give.

"Is this true?" He Caoshi felt that it would be better if Du Yi taught it directly. After all, the taste of this conch is excellent, but the girl in front of her said that it lacks a taste.

When the time comes, you will know how to do it, and you can fry it in your own wine store, and you will not lose much if you sell it today, and it will be fresh.

"Really, but the conch these days must be provided by our family, the price of one pound and five cents. Let's write in black and white, and the deed is the basis. ”

"Okay, refreshing. However, the snail is cheaper. After all, you have less oil and salt, and you will pay four cents for a catty? ”

When Liu heard that a pound was less than a penny, he disagreed at the moment. With a flicker of eyes, he said, "Big sister, this price can't be lower, and it's just a matter of the past few days." After waiting for a while, I still don't want to eat yet. By the way, our family is brewing a new variety of wine, if the eldest sister is interested, after a month, you can come to our house to talk in person, and you will definitely be satisfied. ”

Seeing the order of Crescent Town today, Liu was a little uneasy. She didn't want Doe to linger in the town any longer, for fear something would happen that would catch her off guard.

If you sell wine now, it is best to let this proprietress go to their Liujia Village directly.

He Cao's eyes were full of doubts, the two people in front of him were obviously dressed as village women, but the momentum was the opposite. It's like everyone coming out of the house.

Even if I didn't believe it, I believed it by looking at the smell wafting from the tip of my nose.

"That's it, the price is as you said. As for the wine, it was too cold a month later, so could it be brought forward? "He Cao is afraid that it will snow when the time comes, and the road will not be easy to walk.

"Well, in another twenty days." Although Doe knew that it was better to have a longer wine, she was completely unfamiliar with the climate here.

But those twenty days are almost enough. As for how much it will sell for at that time, that's another story.

After the three of them negotiated, the contract was made in black and white, and Du Yi wrote down the method of doing it. turned to take He Cao's out again, saying that he wanted to find a satisfactory bean paste in person. Wait until tomorrow to bring a new snail over and show you how to do it yourself.

And the rest of the river snails, He Cao's is very generous and directly counted as one hundred and fifty Wen, which can be regarded as a confession.

After going around, I still found douban sauce for Du Yi. After He Cao and Liu each bought some, they dispersed.

Du Yi muttered secretly in his heart, although the ancients were stupid? In addition to the chicken essence and monosodium glutamate, all soy sauce and vinegar are available.

Who said that the ancients were bad at cooking? Just the women's family in Liujia Village has good craftsmanship. Although she hasn't eaten it, Liniang at home is a typical representative, and the food is fragrant.

"Yiyi, do we need to buy something to go back?" Liu carried more than 300 texts in his arms, and his heart was very happy. In the end, it is still not in vain, and there will be income in the next few days.

"Mother, I want to buy a small iron pot or something." Doe still didn't give up and wanted to do soap. The candles are not allowed to be sold, so she can make some of her own household products. And soap can be used too, right? It is still necessary to take this opportunity to investigate the market first.

"Then let's go get something to eat first, and then let's go shopping." Liu felt sorry for Du Yi and still had an empty stomach, so he pulled Du Yi directly to the noodle stall next to the snail before.

"Sister-in-law, you can be regarded as here. I saw you had stood for so long and hadn't eaten. I wanted you to come over for a bite to eat, but you left again because of something. Thanks to you, my business is so good today. These two bowls of noodles, even if I invite you to eat them! ”

Before Liu and Du Yi could get closer, they were pulled by the proprietress to one of the tables. Immediately afterwards, two bowls of noodle soup were served, and there was a lot of meat foam on them.

"How can this be done, big sister, you are out to do business, and it is not easy." Liu said with a disapproving face.

And Dui seems to have no heart and lungs, so he will eat it first. She is really hungry, how can she have so much strength to speak, and it is not too late to talk when she is full.

Originally, these two bowls of noodles cost ten yuan, after all, a lot of meat foam was added, and one bowl was divided into enough. But the proprietress was forced by Liu to the end, and she still symbolically received a bowl of money.

After eating and drinking, Du Yi thought about the soap, and pulled Liu Shi to go to the iron shop to order some things she needed to prepare. Considering that the weather was getting colder and colder, I bought some more while cotton was still cheap. Before leaving, Doe also asked the proprietress to give them some tampons that didn't have much effect on them.

wait

When Du Yi and his mother went out of town, the people on the ox cart had already arrived, and they were waiting for the two of them. しw0。

When the ox cart drove to the fork in the road between Liujia Village and Crescent Town, Du Yi saw a person lying in the grass in front of him from a distance. However, because the grass was so dense, she couldn't see it very clearly.

It stands to reason that her personality tends to be cold, and she has never been concerned about this kind of thing. But for some reason, there was a voice in her heart, calling her to go over and take a look.

Although Du Yi has a cold temperament, he is also a casual person. Suppressing the unexplained pain in his heart, he stopped the ox cart, and ran towards the grass with courage.
