Chapter 67: Open Source
This Aunt Song was even more unpopular than the eldest grandmother back then, Cuili remembered it and scolded again. After scolding, he said awkwardly: "What do you want me to do?" That Wang Zhenniang is stupid, she is used to her as if she has taken ecstasy, how can I get through her! ”
"Wang Zhenniang is not in a hurry here, as long as you stare at that Chen Ju and don't make any trouble, if she wants to mess up this pot of porridge, you can quarrel with her, and I will naturally hear the quarrel."
"Hmph," Cui Li rolled her eyes, "You're not using me as a gunman, you're using me as a bell!" ”
Yan Lingxi grabbed a handful of sesame candy for Cuili, sent it away, and fell asleep by herself.
When I woke up in the morning and went out of the tent, I saw five or six people guarding the door, all with smiling faces, and some of them holding a piece of bread or something.
When they saw Yan Lingxi coming out, they all surrounded him.
"Lingxi, my aunt will say a few words to you." Xu Lanhua leaned forward affectionately, "You have a good brain, I heard that the deal between Xiaoshu and An Laohei was all thought of by you?" Tell your aunt what kind of business I can do? ”
Listening to her speak, several people next to her who were embarrassed to speak also echoed: "Lingxi, what about you look at me?" ”
Xu Lanhua smiled strangely and heartily: "You said that it's really okay to do some small business on the way to escape the wasteland, at least it's better than digging grass roots, isn't it?" It's just an aunt who is a rough person, and she can't do anything, and she hasn't figured out what she can do when she goes home and thinks about it for several days, so give your aunt an idea! Didn't you eat it in the morning, did you? Oh, it's still hot! ”
She stuffed a bowl of vegetable porridge into Yan Lingxi's hand, and someone stuffed the cake again.
Yan Lingxi looked at the things in his hand, haha, and pushed them all back: "You take the things back, whether you can do business or not depends on your own ability, I'll help you think about it." ”
When she said this, everyone happily agreed.
After asking carefully, this Aunt Xu of Orchid Xu really has no skills, she has never learned anything, and her temperament is rough, and she can't do very well like straw weaving female red, and she can only do housework.
He Dakang and He Erkang brothers also know a little carpenter work, but they have already asked Chen Xiaoshu to take the lead, and it is not good to rob people.
Chen Qiucao is a young daughter-in-law, and the female celebrity has good skills, but no one needs this on the way to escape from the famine, and it is difficult to say whether the clothes are torn or not, and she is useless.
There is also Chen Xiaoyu, she is fifteen this year, and she has not yet left the cabinet, so she can't go to the street to do business, she is asking for her mother's idea, and the two of them depend on each other, and they are about to be unable to live.
The two brothers of the He family had better say that Yan Lingxi had already had this intention: "You two go to Zhou Qingshi and partner with him to make some sticks or something, if you can defend yourself, he can tell you how to do it." ”
Earlier, Zhou Qingshi led people to make a batch of them for the village guards, and he was familiar with them, but it was a pity that this dynasty was strictly managed, from knives and guns to animal clips, everything with sharp and sharp blades was restricted from being bought and sold, and it was not something that could be sold casually, and they could only make some sticks.
Sticks are also enough, long, short, double-cut, telescopic, and someone will be willing to buy them in this troubled world.
Chen Qiucao asked her to make the curtains, which were the curtains of the carriage. The wind and sun were blowing along the way, and the draperies were easily damaged. And Yan Lingxi gave her a simple picture, there is a buckle that can seal the carriage, so that the wind will blow away, and people can sit in it much more comfortably.
Chen Xiaoyu and his wife gave Xu Lanhua a hand, and Yan Lingxi taught them to make a meal.
"You boil the corn thoroughly, then you drain it and dry it, and then you cook it, and you boil it and you do it three times, and then you fry it in a pan. The yellow cake produced in this way can top four or five catties of ordinary grain for one catty. This yellow cake can also be sandwiched with meat and vegetables, eat a small piece, and you won't be hungry for half a day. ”
This was the easiest way they used to make rations, and if they were in a hurry and there was not enough food and grass, they would use it.
Although the yellow cake is hard and has a hard taste and some teeth, it is full of burnt grain and full of food, which is much better than many military rations.
When she said it, Chen Xiaoyu and Xu Lanhua listened very carefully, nodding their heads incessantly, and finally the two of them chattered away, for fear that they would not be able to remember.
Yan Lingxi didn't care about it anymore after saying a few words to them, and within a few days, he saw that their stalls in the team were all up.
Except for Xu Lanhua's yellow cake business, other businesses sell things that are easy to take, and at this time, a few are placed on the vacant seats of the board car, or directly hold the hand and shout, and from time to time passers-by buy one or two.
When they walked for a few more days, and when they arrived at the foot of Fucheng, it would be even more lively.
The procession stopped at the city gate to rest, and those who had stalls put up their stalls, some took a small bench and put goods on it, and some spread rags on the ground.
Along the left and right sides of the convoy, this stall slipped away.
Yan Lingxi walked around, and many families later thought of the way to make money on their own, those who can make food, those who can make gadgets, and those who sell shoe soles, those who sell money bags and purses, and the most outrageous two jars of wine that An Dahei didn't bring when he left home, and asked her daughter-in-law to take them out and sell them.
As soon as the wine jar was opened, the fragrance overflowed, attracting people who had no spare money to take a look at it and drool when they smelled it.
At the foot of this city, there are rich people coming and going from time to time, which is much stronger than on the road, and it is estimated that there will be some progress.
Yan Lingxi led the group of four to pack up and enter the city, first, to resell the goods, and secondly, to see how the gate tax of this city gate was.
Now that the world is in turmoil, especially in the northern part of them, it is impossible for the guards of this city gate not to suck a mouthful of blood.
Xiao Chenxuan saw that everyone had gone, and he was also clamoring to go. Yan Lingxi didn't take him with him when he entered the city last time, he was obedient, but he didn't bring it this time, he couldn't stand it.
He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had been in town!
Yan Lingxi sorted out the little baggage, and looked at Xiao Chenxuan beside him anxiously begging, if this was not for his childhood education, I am afraid that he would have been so anxious that he would have spun and jumped on the ground.
"Okay, but you can't wander around when you enter the city, you can only follow us, you can go wherever we go, promise?"
Xiao Chenxuan nodded.
Yan Lingxi is relieved of him, he is already well-behaved compared to other children, and he can do what he promises.
This time when she entered the city, she poured all the goods out of the mall, and there were also a little furs or something scattered along the way, all of which were put together, and those who crossed the bright road were on the top, and those who were bought in the mall were below.
There are a lot of things, and each of the six people carries a burden.
It is still the same procedure to enter the city gate, and the money can only be passed after verifying the identity and then paying the money. Yan Lingxi and the others were lucky, they just heard that the city gate tax was also two yuan, and before they decided whether to pay it or not, there was a sound of horses' hooves galloping behind them, and a team of people and horses rushed over.
