Chapter 12: Making Breads and Selling Bread
There was silence for a moment, and no one spoke.
"Uncle Li Zheng, you can be a witness, starting today, the second room of the Li family will sever the relationship with the big house, and in the future, it will be starvation to death, illness or death, and old age and death will not get along! As for my mother, although she has been divorced by my father, I will still support her every month. Li Youqing said with red eyes.
He really despaired of his big brother.
Li Yan felt sorry for this crying man and nodded.
The two people in the big house are also made, and the old and dead people who are good as a good family do not get along.
"Don't worry, I know it all!" Li Yan said.
Li Yougen has already been so frightened by the turn of events that he doesn't dare to speak, why did his father only leave a letter of resignation for Li Youqing? Also, how can he calculate the second room when he has no mother to contain the second room?
Do they really let them provide their own reading for Xiaohuzi? Where did he go to get a hundred taels of silver?
"It's okay to break off the relationship, you have to finish your responsibilities as the second uncle of Xiaohuzi!" Li Yougen rebuked angrily.
"Ten taels of silver! Not even one less copper plate is enough! ”
Chaolu turned around and pulled out a copper plate from his pocket.
"Uncle is really daydreaming, otherwise you would have given my dowry and my brother's money for marrying a wife? Let's just ask for a nine-two-nine-dollar nine, this copper plate is extra, I'll give it to you for my father! Chaolu's words not only said that Li Yougen was shameless.
I also told everyone that not only does the big house have children to raise, but also the second room, and there are two children!
What's wrong with reading? No money is no money, you can't help but support your own children for your children, right?
Everyone watched the play and dispersed.
Wang's family had no reason to stay here, so they all left.
Only Wang Guizhi blushed angrily and stared at Li Chaolu from afar.
Li Youqing returned to the house, so angry that he didn't say a word. Liu Qing wiped her tears and cleaned up the dishes for the evening.
The only thing that hasn't been affected is probably Chaolu, and after the separation, the two of them will be entangled with each other, and sooner or later they will have to break off the relationship. Otherwise, you have to tie the second room to the belt of the big room's trousers, and support the little tiger who doesn't know when he will come out for the rest of his life?
Li Youqing is honest, but not stupid.
What Uncle Niu brought back was still good news, which was enough to make the second room with a gloomy atmosphere a little more comfortable. More than 20 bamboo weaves were sold, except for those for Uncle Niu, and the second room earned 110 Wen.
With nearly one hundred and fifty wen earned in two days, Chaolu said her thoughts, she wants to sell cakes! She has loved cooking since she was a child, and in addition to practicing, she also cooks. She was proficient in even the food of the Gentiles, for she had a Gentile master.
"Selling bread? What kind of bread to sell? Liu Qing asked.
"Let's make a simple leek cake first! When we have popularity and customers, we will slowly make other cakes. Chaolu explained.
"According to the price of 20 wen for a pound of flour and 30 wen for a pot of tea oil, we will use two catties of flour tomorrow to make 200 leek cakes. If we could sell all those loaves, we would earn a hundred and fifty dena. Chaolu simply calculated the account and told it to the stunned father.
"Okay! Dad listen to you, I'll go to your Uncle Ge's house to get two catties of flour. Li Youqing slapped his thigh and went out with enough money.
"That'...... Mother will cut leeks for you, and chopped green onions. Liu Qing carried the basket and went to the vegetable garden.
Chaolu sat on the chair with satisfaction, seeing that the family trusted her enough and had no reason to support her, and her heart was even happier.
The menu was changed for dinner, and Asaro made a few cakes according to her own ideas.
Cut the leeks finely, mix them into flour and puree, brand them into a round flatbread in tea oil, and sprinkle the chopped green onions when they get out of the pot, and the fragrance makes your mouth water.
But what they didn't know was that the most important thing was to scoop out the only bowl of spiritual spring from the bag, and Chaolu added the water to the water of the noodles.
When Chaolu entered, the little snake was lying on the edge of the only little spring, half-squinting, and did not react much when she saw her come in and take away a little spiritual spring.
Instead, Chaolu took the initiative to tell it that he wanted to use this spiritual spring and flour pancakes to sell.
The little snake was not surprised at all, but had an expression that you had finally done it.
Those jet-black eyes stared at Chaolu as if they were shining.
"Well, when my health improves, this water will become more, and you can get a little more then."
Chaolu thanked him, and when he came out, he added a few spoonfuls of water to the little snake in the rest, so that it could rest well.
Only when the little snake is in good health, the spiritual spring will gradually become more and more, and its functions will become more and more extensive.
About now, this spiritual spring can only make the taste of the cake different from that of ordinary cakes, and it cannot have other outstanding effects.
"Daddy, brother, come and have a taste."
Each of them took a piece of bread, and the three of them endured the burning sensation and stuffed the disease into their mouths.
Immediately captured by the aroma that penetrated into the nostrils, and after eating the whole cake in one go, he stared at the pot reluctantly. Li Chaoyang has a great appetite, and after eating, he stretched out his hand to Chaolu, and wanted to eat again.
Chaolu had no choice but to give him the piece of bread that he had left for himself.
Li Youqing and Liu Qing were completely relieved. Such a pie does not make money? Whose bread makes money?
"Let your brother go with you tomorrow to protect your safety, and your father and mother will be relieved. In case of... If you can't sell it, take it back, and let's eat it! Li Youqing said in a low voice, in fact, there were a lot of redundant words in the back, he said to play, and Liu Qing glared at him.
It is too much to discourage children and say this.
"Okay, it's good to have my brother go. Then tomorrow I'll ask Uncle Niu to give me a ride, and by the way, ask where to sell more. ”
Early the next morning, the brother and sister followed Uncle Niu's mule cart to the town together.
On the way, Uncle Niu tasted a bite of the leek cake handed over by Chaolu, which was originally used as a breakfast cushion to cushion his stomach. As a result, they were instantly amazed by this seemingly simple but extraordinary cake, which was even better than what they had eaten in the town. No wonder this Li family girl is so confident that she wants to go to the town to sell cakes.
"There are a lot of porters at the docks, you can go there and have a look, most of those men haven't eaten breakfast."
"If you don't sell out at noon, you can go to Jiqing Street, where many vegetable farmers don't go home at noon, and they will eat some cakes sold on the street at noon." Uncle Niu thought that he didn't spend money to eat a delicious cake, and it was still good to give some good places to sell.
When he arrived in the town, Uncle Niu found an acquaintance to store the mules, and carried the burden through the streets and alleys shouting and selling some gadgets.
Chaolu took her brother and found a place where people don't show people and people come and go. A little farther away are some men who work hard to move goods, and there is an embroidery workshop nearby, and there are some well-dressed embroidery girls in and out.
This is a good place, Aruru thought.
"Sell bread! Farmer's white-faced farmer's leek, not fragrant, no money! Asaka learned from the hawker and began to shout.
"Sell! Sell Cakes! Li Chaoyang shouted after him.
A woman passing by stretched her neck and sniffed the bread in the basket of morning dew to see the color of the bread.
After a while, a well-dressed woman came to ask how to sell the cakes with the newly bought vegetables in the basket.
"A copper plate and a cake." Asaka replied.
"Your bread is not big, how can you sell a copper plate? Count the eldest lady taking care of your business, can you give me two copper plates? The eldest aunt smiled, thinking that this girl was not deeply involved in the world at first glance, and her cake was branded out of the oil that had not been mixed with water, and when she passed by, she smelled a burst of aroma, and she drooled greedily.
