Chapter 17 Preparing for the opening of the business
"You guys look at the shop here first, and my mother will go to Renyazi to buy a few people and come back."
Ning Dahai heard that he wanted to buy someone back, and immediately disagreed: "Mother, you don't actually need to buy someone, our family is enough, it's not a waste of money to buy someone." ”
Zhao Xiaohua also nodded: "The sea is right, mother, why don't we buy it, we can work hard." ”
"Of course my mother knows that it's okay for us as a family.
But the lotus pregnancy needs to be taken care of by adults to avoid accidents, the adults in the family are the three of us, and the other children, although they can work, but how much can they do.
Besides, our store also needs to be watched, otherwise what if someone breaks in in the middle of the night, you can tell me if you need someone.
Do you want someone in our family to watch here, don't you worry about his safety in your hearts, don't you think cranky at night? ”
Listening to my mother's analysis, it makes sense.
Ning Dahai was the first to say: "Then mother, you can buy a few people back." ”
Zhao Xiaohua thought about it and agreed.
Then Su Lanxi went to Renyazi to buy people.
Renyazi is a middle-aged woman, wearing colorful clothes, and the powder on her face falls down as long as she smiles.
"This guest is going to buy people back, and I have everything here, strong men, handsome, young, everything."
"These young guys are quick with their hands and feet."
He threw his handkerchief and said, "Okay, I'll go and bring someone." ”
After a while, more than a dozen young men came out: "Guest officer, look at these things, your looks are all passable, and your hands and feet are also sharp." ”
Su Lanxi looked at these children, almost all of them were fifteen or sixteen years old, and they looked quite pitiful.
Su Lanxi picked four energetic children and bought them back.
Su Lanxi looked at the four children and asked what their names were.
"What's your name?"
One of the four children came out and said, "We don't have a name, please give it a name to our master." ”
The other three also said, "Please give the master a name." ”
stains, why does this master sound so uncomfortable.
"You don't have to call me master, just call me the host.
If you have a name, you will be called Jiuguang, Jiuyao, Jiurun, and Jiukuan from left to right, and your surname will be Yun. ”
The four children knelt down and thanked them: "Thank you for the name." ”
After the name was given, the deed of sale of the human tooth was also brought.
"This is the deed of sale of the four of them, you are good, a total of forty taels of silver."
stains, this ancient human life is really worthless, one person is only ten taels.
"It's forty taels."
Ren Yazi took the money and said with a smile: "Thank you, guest officer." ”
After that, Su Lanxi took them back to the store.
"I'm back, it's the one I bought."
When the people in the store saw Su Lanxi coming back, they all gathered around.
"Mother, is this the person you bought, this is also a child."
Jiuguang disagreed when he heard that they were children: "This sister, although we look like children, we are all fifteen or sixteen years old, and we can work." ”
Hearing that he was fifteen or sixteen years old, Zhao Xiaohua felt that this child was pitiful, but she was pitiful in her heart, and she listened to her mother-in-law no matter what she did.
Su Lanxi saw that the child was called the wrong one and quickly corrected it: "Ahem, this is my eldest daughter-in-law, the one over there is my eldest son, this is the eldest granddaughter, and this is my adopted child." ”
Ning Yanming, Ning Xiaoxue greeted the four children: "Hello! ”
Jiuguang saw that he was wrong and hurriedly corrected: "I'm sorry, madam, the slave is wrong." ”
When the children of the owner greeted them, they were a little frightened: "The minions don't dare." ”
It was the first time for Zhao Xiaohua to hear someone on the side call her Mrs., and she was inevitably a little overwhelmed.
The children looked at such a humble four people, and they felt very uncomfortable.
Su Lanxi hurriedly came to the rescue: "Okay, you don't need too many rules here, you don't need to call yourself a slave, just call me."
Let me state that as long as my hands and feet are clean, if I find someone eating inside and out, I will buy him to the dirtiest place, you know? ”
The four children listened to Su Lanxi's cruel words and hurriedly said: "Slave ......, we will definitely not betray the owner, we must work hard." ”
Su Lanxi said that he was very satisfied: "Well, this is about the same, the sea, there is still a cold skin left in the bucket, it is all made for these children to eat, remember to work after eating." ”
Ning Dahai heard that he wanted to make cool skin, so he hurried to do it.
He said that why did his mother leave a dozen cool skins, it turned out to be this thing.
When the four children heard that there was food, they were very moved: "Thank you, host." ”
"It's okay, no thanks, you finish eating these cold skins, let's go buy ingredients, you remember to look at the store."
The four of them said in unison: "Got it, owner." ”
Four people went out to buy groceries, and four children gobbled up in the store.
Ning Yanming went back first and told his family, go back later, don't worry.
For breakfast, I sell Hu spicy soup, soy milk, tofu brain, soy milk, fried dough sticks, xiao long bao, and that's all for the time being.
At noon, I sell dry pot fat sausages, fried vegetables, sweet and sour pork ribs, garlic and white meat ......, that's all.
It will not be sold at night.
To make soy milk, I wanted to sell beans, so I went to the grain store and bought forty catties of beans, and bought a bunch of vegetables for them to transport back to the store.
"You take these fifty wen first, I will not come back until the day after tomorrow, you remember to eat by yourself, find a house to sleep in the backyard, and buy all the bedding. In the few days you are away, remember to clean the shop, and tomorrow the carpenter boss will send twenty steamers. ”
The four children were very moved when they heard that Su Lanxi had bought so many things for them: "Thank you, the owner, we will definitely clean the store." ”
After Su Lanxi left, several children gathered around to discuss: "The owner is so good to us, we have food and accommodation before we work, but it is much better than other people, we must work hard and repay the owner." ”
Jiukuan was a baby-faced, very cute to look at, and said with wide eyes, "Mmmm, we must work hard." ”
Su Lanxi went home and began to teach Zhao Xiaohua to make Hu spicy soup.
"Xiaohua, come on, time is pressing, let's come and experiment and cook."
Zhao Xiaohua listened to her mother's urgent voice, and hurriedly ran to the kitchen: "Hey, mother, I'm here." What's the matter in such a hurry. ”
Su Lanxi said solemnly: "I will teach you to make a delicious soup for my mother today, you have to learn it well." ”
Seeing that her mother was so serious, Zhao Xiaohua also began to cheer up her spirit for this thing to do.
"The name of this soup is Hu Spicy Soup, and it is a very delicious soup, but you have to be careful not to add too much or too little to its ingredients.
If you eat more, it will be unpalatable, and if you eat less, it will be tasteless. ”
Zhao Xiaohua strictly remembered what her mother-in-law said: "Well, I remember, mother, when will we start doing it." ”
"Let's get started now."
