Chapter 8 The current task is to make money
Lu Yu looked at her in surprise, these ingredients that Heng Qiao said are all medicinal value, and they are for the treatment of dysentery, how can she, a girl who dropped out of school before finishing high school, know how to know medical skills? This girl is not at all the same timid, although she is dark and thin, she looks resolute and does things quickly, especially those clear eyes, shining, revealing strength and wisdom.
Liu Yumei scolded Hengqiao again, and Lu Yu hurriedly helped her speak: "Aunt Yumei, Sister Qiao's recipe is good, making medicinal porridge can not only treat the villagers, but also earn a little money." ”
Heng Qiao shook off Liu Yumei's hand and said disgustedly: "Whoever is like you knows how to cry!" Does crying solve the problem? You hurry up and prepare the cauldron and firewood, I want to boil porridge. ”
After she finished speaking, she said very apologetically to the seventh uncle and seventh aunt: "Seventh uncle and seventh aunt, I'm sorry, I'm bothering you tonight, I will convert the cost to you tomorrow, I will rent those old houses with you tomorrow, I want to find someone to repair it, and move in as soon as possible." ”
The seventh uncle and the seventh aunt looked at each other, and the seventh uncle said: "That old house can also be inhabited, I will find someone to repair it tomorrow." ”
"Okay, I'll pay for the repairs." Hengqiao readily agreed, "I'll pay you thirty yuan a month for the rent, and I'll increase the price for you in the future as the market improves." ”
Liu Yumei was so anxious that she looked at her, pulled her aside and reprimanded: "It's a problem to eat now, where to make so much money to pay the rent!" I'm not in good health right now, and I can't afford to go out to work! ”
Heng Qiao said lightly: "You don't care! Hurry up and help me make a fire, I want to make porridge. ”
She squatted on the steps to soak japonica rice, wash snails, the heavy rain stopped, and the summer heat in the countryside faded at night, with a hint of coolness, which was extremely comfortable.
Lu Yu helped her wash the old ginger and asked suspiciously, "How can you make medicinal food?" ”
Hengqiao smiled: "I went to school." ”
She looked up at Lu Yu and sincerely requested: "Maybe the villagers won't believe that my snail porridge can cure diseases, the first day of business trouble you help me stand on the platform, you can rest assured, the quality and efficacy are absolutely guaranteed!" ”
Lu Yu looked at the porridge she prepared with his own eyes, and of course he believed her. He nodded in agreement, looked at the time and said, "It's seven o'clock, I'll go door-to-door to say a word, and come over at nine o'clock to eat snail porridge." ”
"How much do you think a bowl is appropriate?" Heng Qiao asked.
Lu Yu calculated the cost for her, a pot of porridge cost about seven yuan, which can produce fifty bowls, and a bowl of three cents can cost fifteen yuan.
"Okay, then three cents a bowl, tell everyone, it will still be served tomorrow morning."
"Okay."
"Don't forget to let them bring their own dishes and chopsticks!"
"Great!"
Lu Yu went out, and Heng Qiao hurried to make porridge. The pot of the seventh uncle's house is quite big, very good, after she put all the ingredients in the pot, let Liu Yumei burn the fire. The Lu family has ready-made coriander, white radish and rock sugar, and she also boiled a pot of rock sugar radish and coriander soup in a small pot, ready to give it to the feverish child for free.
"After a while, the water will boil, you can take out some of the fire, boil the small fire, don't be confused." She told Liu Yumei.
"Don't worry, I'll make porridge." Liu Yumei listened to her settling accounts with Lu Yu just now, this pot of porridge has money to be made, and she is in a much better mood.
Heng Qiao took advantage of the fact that it was okay at this moment, borrowed a flashlight from Uncle Seven, and asked him to lead him to see the old house of the old foundation.
Part of the old house has been demolished, and there is still a kitchen, a main room, and a side room. The kitchen has a stove and a few old iron pots, which can still be used for washing. There is also a set of tables and chairs, which can be used for the time being, and there are two old beds in the room, which can still be used if you do a little hygiene, but now the problem is mattresses and quilts, and there is nothing.
Making money is the first big thing she faces now.
