Chapter 22: Repeating the Old Trick
Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin disappeared for a few days, and the people passing by at the entrance of the village couldn't see them coming out, so they simply went directly to other stalls.
Seeing that they hadn't appeared for several days, Aunt Lin thought that they had completely lost their skills, and she was secretly proud in her heart.
As a result, she was not proud for two days, and Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin appeared with oden.
The original method of oden is a bit spicy and not suitable for eating in the morning.
In order to cater to the tastes of the villagers, she deliberately readjusted the taste.
The oden brought by Liu Qingshao became popular all of a sudden, they had never eaten such a peculiar food, and the price was cheap, they liked it very much.
Seeing this, Aunt Lin was angry and itchy!
She thought that Liu Qingshao had been completely trampled under her feet.
Who would have thought, but in just a few days, she actually thought of a new trick.
Aunt Lin Sanjiao planned to repeat her old trick and send someone to lower the price to grab business, but the guests were already tired of eating cold noodles and knife-cut noodles, even if she charged less than one penny per bowl, no one still wanted to patronize.
On the contrary, Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin were surrounded by guests.
"Slut!" She was so angry that she rushed over and directly tore up their stall.
"Auntie, don't worry, what she can sell, we can also sell!" Following Aunt Lin's doglegs, she whispered a few words in her ear, and she immediately changed her mind.
"That's a good idea, you can do it right away!" After Aunt Lin had a countermeasure in her heart, she was no longer in a hurry, but sat next to her and drank tea leisurely.
The next day, Aunt Lin asked the chef to start making oden, wanting to steal Liu Qingshao's business.
However, the oden seems to be simple, but the ingredients are also very ordinary, and you can buy them casually, but they tried to make it a few times, and the taste was not satisfactory.
"Dongjia, the food she sells tastes extremely special, I have carefully observed it, the secret should be in the soup!" The chef's oden is like an ordinary boiled dish with a variety of seasonings, and although it is not unpleasant, no one will want to buy it.
This time, the price of Liu Qingshao is not high, and if they reduce the price, they will lose money.
Aunt Lin glared at the chef angrily and said, "I can't do such a simple thing, I never raise waste in my shop, you get out of me!" ”
She angrily drove the chef away, but she was still resentful.
Oden and barbecue made Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin both earn a lot of silver.
Others don't have a recipe and make it taste so bad that they can't steal their business at all.
Xiao Hanyin finally felt at ease!
Liu Qingshao took him in and regarded him as a relative, and he wanted her to live a better life.
It's a pity that he is not as proficient in eating as Liu Qingshao, all he can do is to share more for her......
A few days later, they were going to build a road in the town.
When the term of office of the previous prefectural magistrate expired, he was transferred to another place, and the new prefectural magistrate decided to build a road because he wanted to benefit the people.
This time, the road he was going to build happened to be the road leading to Nanshui Village in the town.
The road was wide, but it was potholes, and it was impossible to get off during the rainy season.
After Liu Qingshao heard about it, she quickly had an idea in her heart, but the time was not ripe, and she did not tell Xiao Hanyin what she was thinking about.
The people who came to build the road were all young and middle-aged people, and they worked hard, so the wages were good.
During this period, Liu Qingshao has been setting up a stall at the entrance of the village, and after the road construction workers smelled the fragrance, they came over curiously to try the oden and barbecue she made.
However, these things are okay for tooth sacrifices, and for their coolie sellers, they can't eat enough at all.
"Girl, I see that you set up a stall here every day, can you make some food and sell it?" After eating the food she made a few times, the foreman could no longer eat anything from other stalls.
Liu Qingshao not only cooks well, but the ingredients are also very special, and those who have eaten it have become repeat customers.
The workers who built the road had money in their hands, so they wanted to eat something delicious with oil and water.
"I only sell oden and barbecue every day, and I don't prepare meals for the time being!" After Liu Qingshao heard his words, she suddenly had a thought in her heart.
However, she did not show it.
"Girl, I don't like you saying that my brothers have eaten what you have made, and they all think it tastes very good, and I wonder if you can prepare lunch for us every day?" After thinking for a while, the foreman finally said what he was thinking.
"You mean let's prepare an extra lunch?" Liu Qingshao's eyes lit up.
"That's right, we will pay for the salary, but the oil and water must be sufficient!" They are young adults, and they eat a lot of food.
"Okay, I'll be sure to prepare!" Business was delivered to the door, how could she refuse.
"That's it, you cook a meal tomorrow, and if it suits everyone's taste, we'll give you a deposit directly!" The foreman was a straightforward man, and he did things neatly and neatly.
"Okay!" After the matter was finalized, Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin became more and more busy.
After they set up their stalls, they immediately went to the town to buy ingredients.
There are at least two dozen of those who build roads, and it is very time-consuming and labor-intensive to prepare their meals, but as long as they can earn money, Liu Qingshao is happy.
Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin bought a bunch of ingredients, but it was not easy to get them back, so she directly found an ox cart.
After the two of them went back, they began to pack up the ingredients, there were too many meals, and if they didn't prepare in advance, they wouldn't be able to make it tomorrow at all.
She had processed all the dishes, it was already late, and Xiao Hanyin had already been boiled hot water by her.
Liu Qingshao is a person who loves cleanliness, this is a habit she used to develop, she has to bathe twice a day, after all, people who do food business pay attention to cleanliness.
However, after she came here, the conditions were much worse, but she still maintained the habit of bathing every day, and Xiao Hanyin was the same.
In the past, he was a beggar, sleeping in the open every day, and he couldn't even eat and wear, let alone have hot water to bathe.
At that time, he went directly to the river to clean, but in order to avoid some trouble, he rarely showed his plastic surgery in front of others......
The next morning, Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin went out as usual.
The oden they sell is doing very well and there are many people waiting for them every day.
Although the stall is small, it earns a lot of money every day.
After closing the stall in the morning, they immediately rushed back to cook and deliver it to the road builders.
The people who built the road used to eat steamed buns, and they had long wanted to eat a good meal.
However, none of them are from the village, so they can only buy food outside with silver.
"The taste is excellent, the girl's craftsmanship is not inferior to the chef of the restaurant, from today onwards, you will send us lunch at this hour every day, and I will settle the meal money on the spot!" The foreman was in a good mood as he ate her cooking.
The braised pork made by Liu Qingshao is very delicious, fat but not greasy, and there is a dish of steamed pork, which is full of weight.
They were just right for an adult man.
After they were full, they all had the strength to work harder and harder......
The foreman was very happy, and was very happy when he gave the money, and told her to bring the food on time tomorrow.
Due to the extra income, Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin were busy and had no time to take a lunch break, but they were still very energetic.
Liu Qingshao and him did not spread this matter.
As the days passed, the news that they were delivering food to the road builders was finally spread.
The gentleman of the private school in the village directly found Liu Qingshao.
"I heard that Miss Liu is delivering food to those who are building the road?" Mr. Private School gets straight to the point.
"That's right, I promised to bring them lunch every day!" Liu Qingshao did not hide the matter.
Since the gentlemen of the private school know about it, it must have spread all over the village.
There have always been no secrets in the village, after all, she sets up a stall at the entrance of the village every day, and many people know her.
If someone inadvertently reveals the news that she is going to deliver food, it is normal.
"The children in our private school, every day when they have lunch in the private school, they have been talking about how delicious the food you make, and now they have no intention of eating, for the sake of the children's body, I want to cooperate with Miss Liu!" Mr. Private School directly stated the purpose of his coming to her.
"I wonder how Mr. wants to cooperate?" Do you want her to cook meals and send them over every day?
There are mothers-in-law in private schools who have special practices, and they will not let the children out easily.
If something happens to them, the private school will definitely be in trouble, so they are very strict.
However, children love to eat and make trouble, and after they have eaten what Liu Qingshao cooks, they can't eat the food cooked by the private school mother-in-law at all......
"I think you can come to our private school and cook for the children, and I will give you silver every month!" Mr. Private School said.
"I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't promise you this, I have to bring food to the road builder every noon!" Liu Qingshao shook her head and refused.
The monthly silver of the private school is not as good as the income of her and Xiao Hanyin for a day.
What's more, Liu Qingshao prefers unrestrained days, even if it is hard every day and goes out to set up a stall alone, she feels satisfied......
"Just make lunch, and I'll pay you on time!" He was also told by the students in the private school that there was no way out.
The cooking skills of the rice cooker are average, and if there is no Liu Qing and Peony Zhuyu in front of her, the meals she makes can still be eaten.
Nowadays, children's appetites are picky, and they are naturally not satisfied with those boiled dishes.
"Sir specially came here, I shouldn't have refused, but now I am really lacking in skills, what do you think if you provide your own ingredients, and I provide the ingredients you need every day?" Liu Qingshao thought of a compromise.
Those children like to eat what she makes, and Liu Qingshao is happy in her heart.
They are children, and when they are growing taller, if they can't eat the food they want every day, it will easily affect their body.
"Okay, Miss Liu is really transparent, she can come up with such a way!" Mr. Private School agreed without saying a word.
In this way, they solved the problem of the child's pickiness in eating, and Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin could earn an extra amount of silver, and both parties were very satisfied.
Half a month later, Liu Qingshao already had more than 100 taels of silver in his hand.
She began to think about rebuilding the house.
They didn't have any money in their hands before, so Xiao Hanyin originally planned to ask someone to renovate it, and wait until autumn to start repairing the house.
However, Liu Qingshao didn't want to do this, she decided to wait until she earned enough money, and then according to her plan, she would build a house she liked.
This house was built by the original owner's parents, and although it was her home, she had no sense of belonging......
So, after they prepared the ingredients for tomorrow that night, Liu Qingshao began to discuss with him about building a house.
"You want to fix the house now?" Xiao Hanyin frowned.
"What, don't you want to?" Liu Qingshao thought that he would definitely agree with his idea.
