Chapter 032: The inn business is poor

At the beginning, Ning Yuxi was rich, and many contradictions could be solved in the Ye family.

Ye Leek also felt that she had to make more money, so that she could live a little better in this era when the time came.

"There has been no rain in the past half a month, but I didn't expect it to rain just yesterday, and the mountains are not wet or wet, and the plums have found so many red mushrooms, which are really capable." Ye Ying smiled and praised her sister.

Ye Mei is sixteen years old this year, she has been engaged to the second son of the Qiu family, a large duck farmer in the village, and she will be married at the end of the year.

"Well, I also stumbled upon a place where red mushrooms grow. We'll look for it tomorrow morning, sister, when these red mushrooms are dried, put them in your store to make soup and sell them, so that you can have a signature dish in your store. ”

Simply selling dried red mushrooms, even if they are in good condition, they are only two taels of silver, but if they are made into soup and sold in Ye Yingna's inn, the price can be increased several times.

The red mushrooms they picked last year were sold for a full ten taels of silver from Ye Ying, so this time she also planned to give the red mushrooms to Ye Ying.

"Alas, I'm afraid Sister Meizi won't be able to help you this year, my mother-in-law's inn is in a hurry because of its business, and it can't make ends meet, so my mother-in-law plans to resell the inn after a while."

"Why! Didn't you hear you say that the inn business was okay some time ago? ”

Ye Ying's inn is at the foot of the West Mountain in the town, in front of which is the official road to Chong'an County, there are many merchants and tourists in the past, and there is a hot spring house on the West Mountain, although it is not as prosperous as the town, but the business of the inn is still good.

"Because the entire 300 acres of mountain land with hot springs in Xishan were bought by a large family in the county, and outsiders were not allowed to go up the mountain again, and the hot spring pavilions opened on it were bulldozed.

And the shopkeeper of our inn has an urgent matter at home, quit his job and went back to his hometown of Yuezhou, plus the recent hot weather, in the past it was the hot spring off-season, and most of the past merchants and tourists also chose to live in the town, even the original chef Chef Liao did not stay, your brother-in-law's cooking skills are average, how can the business be good! ”

"Uncle Nan, aunt ......"

Before she finished speaking, she heard someone coming outside, and Ye Ying glanced back.

A young man of seventeen or eighteen carried a bundle of firewood into her yard, and without waiting for a few Ye family members to speak, he put it on the corner of the wall, wiped his sweat with the cloth towel on his shoulder, and his honest face was full of smiles.

"Auntie, this is the pine wood you wanted."

Xiao Liang smiled and narrowed his eyes, "Chenglin, it's hot and drink a bowl of water before leaving." ”

"yes, okay."

Xiao Liang walked to the kitchen and poured out some water from the crockpot on the table, and soon brought out a large bowl and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work, drink saliva first." ”

"Thank you, auntie." Li Chenglin took the bowl, raised his head and drank all the water, wiped his mouth and smiled.

"Sister Yingzi, do you still need someone else to send your firewood?" Ye Leek Ya asked curiously, the third uncle's family is not without strong labor.

"This is pine firewood, not for cooking, but for my father to go eel fishing at night for lighting. Because my father and eldest brother are busy working in the field these days, I asked Brother Cheng Lin to bring a bundle to my house by the way. ”

"Oh." Ye Leek Bud understands that pine burning is not easy to extinguish because of pine oil, and it is good to use it as torch lighting.
