Chapter 355: A Little Try

When the two sisters returned home, Tang Xiaofu said that she still had to buy coke, and asked Tang Xiaolan to close the door and sleep well, I am afraid that she will be busy at night.

After Tang Xiaofu left, Xiaolan obediently closed the door and slept on the bed board in the middle room.

Tang Xiaofu was very familiar with Wuhan because of his previous life, so he quickly found the railway family area that the old man said, and asked people about buying coke, which was not at all like what the old man said, and someone would sell you coke as soon as he asked.

People in the city are still not as honest and simple as people in the countryside.

Tang Xiaofu was leaving dejectedly, and an aunt ran to her, pulled her to a secluded place, and asked mysteriously: "Girl, are you really here to buy coke?" ”

Tang Xiaofu nodded, and at the same time guessed the purpose of this aunt blocking her, and hope rose in her heart.

The aunt said, "I have a lot of coke at home, what price do you buy?" ”

Tang Xiaofu knew where the price was, so he asked, "What price do you sell?" ”

The aunt said: "Sell from 100 catties, 10 yuan per 100 catties!" ”

Tang Xiaofu calculated, ten yuan should be considered a very high price at that time, and it was worth one-third of a young worker's monthly salary, so she wondered: "I want it for a long time, this price is too high, I can't afford it." ”

The aunt thought for a long time, and then said, "Then nine yuan, no less." ”

Tang Xiaofu didn't bargain anymore, now is not the best time to bargain, buy it at this price first, and then ask the aunt how many catties there are at home.

The aunt stretched out three fingers: "Three hundred catties, can you swallow them all?" ”

Tang Xiaofu saw that she was a little anxious, so she changed her mind and decided to push the price down a little more, so she pretended to think about it in her heart for a long time, and said: "If I only buy 100 catties, it will be according to the price you said, but if I want to buy them all, it will be 25 yuan." ”

The aunt thought that she could get rid of all the coke in the family with only two dollars less, and she was quite happy in her heart.

Besides, if the coke at home is not disposed of, the children at home should not be allowed to pick up the small pieces of coke left over from the unloading and unloading to sell for money, so they happily agreed. And also responsible for home delivery.

Tang Xiaofu was waiting outside the railway dormitory, and after about half an hour, she saw the aunt pedaling a tricycle out of the dormitory with great difficulty, and asked Tang Xiaofu to come up, and she picked her up.

Tang Xiaofu looked at the aunt who was struggling to step on it, and said, "Auntie, I'll just run with it." ”

The aunt pulled too many goods, and she couldn't ride fast at all, so Tang Xiaofu could keep up with it at a trot.

There was a door in the backyard of the house Tang Xiaofu bought, so she took her aunt directly to the backyard, directly unloaded the coke into the yard, and after unloading the coke, the aunt said that the car had 100 catties of coke, and asked Tang Xiaofu to give her nine yuan first.

These cokes have not been weighed in front of Tang Xiaofu, whether it is enough to weigh Tang Xiaofu has no bottom in her heart, and she can only gamble on the character of the aunt, so she gave the aunt nine yuan, and the aunt went back to tow the second car.

Tang Xiaofu began to boil the pig's large intestine and pig's feet in water first to remove the peculiar smell, and then began to marinate.

When the marinade is almost done, the stove is sealed, and it is slowly heated over low heat to absorb the flavor, and the mother-in-law and mother of the neighborhood continue to come to ask Tang Xiaofu if she is braised meat at home, it is so fragrant!

Tang Xiaofu smiled perfunctorily, "Yes." ”

As soon as Tang Xiaofu came back, Xiaolan got up, sliced eggplant potatoes or something according to what Tang Xiaofu said, and put them on skewers.

The aunt sent all the three hundred catties of coke, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, and the number of pedestrians on the street had increased significantly, and the sun had not yet set at that time, but it was already the end of the crossbow, and it was not much sun, and the sidewalks of the street were planted with tall plane trees, and the shading effect was very good, so there was no sunshine on the street, so Tang Xiaofu and Xiaolan began to go out together.

First move the barbecue grill out, then bring the large pot of vegetables with clothes to the barbecue grill so that you can wait for the barbecue, and then the two sisters bring out the stove and the big sand hanger together, and a large pot is filled with many washed and clean leafy vegetables.

As soon as the two sisters were busy, they didn't have time to straighten their waists, and someone asked them: "What is cooking in your big sand hanger?" ”

"Malatang." Tang Xiaofu replied, in fact, the ingredients in it are very different from the spicy tang she said she ate in her previous life, alas, whatever, as long as he can sell it to make money.

"How did you sell it?" The customer's throat moved several times, probably swallowing saliva, because the spicy tang was so fragrant and mouthwatering.

When the spicy tang was just cooked, the two Tang Xiaofu sisters also swallowed their saliva, and simply bought two steamed buns, and one of them had a bowl of spicy tang as if they had eaten dinner.

"Five cents a bowl." Tang Xiaofu said.

A braised egg can be sold for a dime and a half cents, and a bowl of five cents is not expensive, but I don't know if I can make money, because Tang Xiaofu doesn't know how much coke is used to cook a spicy hot man, and this cost is a little difficult to calculate.

The customer happily asked for a bowl, and stood at the door with a bowl and ate it all, shouting that it was delicious, spicy and enjoyable, and it would be nice to have a bottle of cold soda.

Then, one after another, people came to buy and eat, Tang Xiaofu asked Xiaolan to sell Malatang, and she went to the barbecue.

There are many kinds of barbecue such as baked potato chips, grilled tofu, grilled eggplant, grilled leeks, and baked beans.

After a while, the aroma of five-spice powder filled the air, and many people came to ask how much these barbecues cost a string, Tang Xiaofu replied with a smile: "A dime for vegetables, and a dime for tofu is a bunch." ”

Although a pound of vegetables is sometimes only a dime a pound, a pound of vegetables can wear a lot of vegetables for barbecue, so a dime a bunch sounds cheap, but it is actually very expensive.

But the problem is that no one has ever seen that vegetables can be roasted and eaten, and they are so fragrant, so the foodies who want to eat do not care about the price, it seems to be a little expensive, you buy three skewers and I buy five skewers and eat it, it is hot, spicy and fragrant, it is really delicious.

Officially started to sell at half past five, and it was sold out before nine o'clock, the two sisters have been hand and foot, and their waists are almost tired.

Tang Xiaofu thought that she would go back early tomorrow morning and get some more pig's feet.

When the two sisters closed their stalls, many neighbors came to inquire about how much they earned, and when they were doing business just now, they sat at the door with a small stool and watched.

Tang Xiaofu said with a smile: "The profit is very thin, earn a living expenses." ”

After closing the stall and cleaning up the door, Tang Xiaofu closed the door, and then turned off the electric light in the first room, so that people outside could not see the light, and they would think that her sisters were asleep, and they would not come to ask questions again.

Tang Xiaofu brought the stove to the backyard and put it hot at home.

The two sisters washed the pots and pans, Tang Xiaofu put a large pot of water on the stove and boiled hot water with the embers, her sisters waited for a while to take a bath, and then the two sisters sat on the bed board in the middle room and began to count the money.

Almost all of them are dimes and molecules, and there are some of them, but there are very few of them with large denominations like two pieces.

Tang Xiaofu bought more than 200 vegetable barbecues, sold more than 100 tofu barbecues, which sold for 40 yuan, bought dried tofu for 6 yuan, and used a quarter of the plate carbon, and the cost was calculated at 2 yuan, so the net profit was more than 30 yuan.

Tang Xiaolan's twelve braised pig's feet were sold for a total of twenty-four yuan, and Malatang sold more than 100 bowls, with a total of more than 50 yuan, and only used a little coke, so according to the cost of coke, Tang Xiaolan should have made a net profit of more than 40 yuan, and the two sisters earned a total of 80 yuan, although it was less than the income from the stall, but it was already very profitable in the summer.

However, Xiaolan didn't think she made that much, because vegetables were not included in the cost, and she only earned sixty yuan when she was full, but sixty yuan is a lot.

The two sisters couldn't sleep with some excitement, after taking a bath, Xiaolan was considerate of her sister's discomfort, so she had to rush to wash the clothes and dry them in the yard, and the two of them still lay on the bed board and talked for a while before falling asleep, they were so tired that they slept very deeply, even if they were bitten by mosquitoes, they couldn't wake up.

The next day, the two sisters got up before dawn, rushed back to the countryside by the first bus, and when they arrived in the town, Tang Xiaofu asked the owner of the meat stall to leave the pig's intestine or something to her as usual, she came to buy it later, and then the two sisters hurriedly went to the field and found Fang Wenjing, Xiaolan excitedly told Fang Wenjing that she made a lot of money last night, and Tang Xiaofu handed Fang Wenjing fifty yuan, and thirty yuan was not paid, so she kept it to expand her business.

Fang Wenjing said in surprise: "I really didn't expect that vegetables can make so much money!" ”

Tang Xiaofu said: "In the future, my mother will not sell the vegetables, we will make spicy hot or roasted vegetables by ourselves, and make more money, fifty catties of vegetables a day may not be enough, my mother will take the time to go to the house of the two uncles, let the two uncles also sell the vegetables to us, if it is not enough, we will buy Aunt Wang Kui's." ”

Fang Wenjing was overjoyed: "Okay, I'll go after hoeing the grass of these few acres of land." "Put the money Tang Xiaofu gave her close to her.

Tang Xiaofu said again: "I also want Cousin Fang Ming to make a special trip to deliver goods to us in the future, otherwise my sister and I will be too tired to run around like this." ”

Fang Wenjing smiled and said that she would mention this matter when she went to her uncle's house later.

Tang Xiaofu asked Fang Ming's cousin to bring a sack of crayfish when he came, as well as snails and palm-sized crucian carp.

Fang Wenjing obeyed Tang Xiaofu's words, and she could make money by listening to her anyway, so she agreed.

Tang Xiaofu and the two sisters hurriedly went back, picked a lot of vegetables and a pot of vegetable oil and left, and then went to the town to buy the things they needed to buy and rushed to the provincial capital by car.

Fang Wenjing was very distressed when she saw that her two daughters were working so hard, but she couldn't help herself.

After hoeing the grass in the field, Fang Wenjing went home, changed his clothes and hurried to Fang Shoucheng's house.

Because of the late departure, it was not until one o'clock in the afternoon that he arrived at Fang Shoucheng's house, only the old lady was at home, and the rest of the people were all working in the fields.

The old lady was surprised why Fang Wenjing came at this time.

Fang Wenjing told the old lady that her two daughters had bought a house in the city and set up a night market to sell snacks.

The old lady patted her thigh in disbelief and said, "Oh mom, why didn't I see that this girl Xiaofu was so shrewd and capable before, and she could bake vegetables and sell them!" I'm going to call Xiao Ming to come back, catch fish and shrimp, and tell Xiao Ming to take them to the city with vegetables early tomorrow morning. "As he spoke, he was about to go out.

Fang Wenjing asked embarrassedly: "Auntie, is there any leftover food at home, I came all the way, and I haven't eaten lunch yet~"

The old lady patted her head: "I patronized and went happily, so I forgot to ask if you had eaten, so I will go and cook for you." ”

went into the kitchen and made a bowl of egg fried rice for Fang Wenjing.

When the two sisters returned to the provincial capital again, a neighbor came to her and handed her a bunch of new keys, saying that an officer drove a truck at noon and brought a few soldiers to her house.

Tang Xiaofu took the new set of keys, said thank you to the neighbor, opened the door and wanted to go in, the neighborhood gossiped about who the officer was, Tang Xiaofu said: "An Uncle Lei Feng." ”

There are many shrewd people in Wuhan, and when they heard it, they could hear that Tang Xiaofu was perfunctory to them, so they all dispersed with interest.

When the Tang Xiaofu sisters entered the house, they saw that there was a five-drawer cabinet and a set of tables and chairs in the outermost room, and there were two large beds in the middle room, and the big beds were covered with brand-new mats and brand-new mosquito nets.

The two sisters looked at each other and smiled, and they would never be bitten by mosquitoes again when they slept at night.

Between the two large beds is a small desk, and against the wall is a row of wardrobes.

Tang Xiaolan smiled happily and said, "This is like a home." ”

Tang Xiaofu felt that those furniture were very familiar, and after a closer look, this ...... Isn't this Leng Chenxu's furniture, why did he drag it all to her house?

The two sisters smiled and walked to the backyard, ready to wash their hands and faces, cool and cool, the road was dusty, their bodies were covered with sweat, and their hair was stuck to their faces very uncomfortable.

When passing by the kitchen, the two sisters were surprised to find that there was a basket of eggs on the stove, and there were two packets of longan and two packets of brown sugar on top of the eggs, which were probably brought by Leng Chenxu.

When I went to the yard, I found that there were two hens in the yard who were dying in the sun with their wings and feet tied.

…… This is also Leng Chenxu's masterpiece?! Why do these things give the impression that they are given to women in confinement?

Tang Xiaolan said meaningfully to Tang Xiaofu: "Captain Leng is really good to my sister. ”

Tang Xiaofu laughed dryly, washed her hands and face, and suddenly felt a lot cooler.
