"Lady, you are really business-minded." Yue Lingjun couldn't help but praise.

If it were someone else, they would have been eager to hold the secret recipe in their hands, and they would never have thought of it so far.

"It's okay, it's okay." Shen Yingniang said modestly, "It's just a few more steps." ”

Twenty meters away from Shen Yingniang's house, people from Huangjia Village gathered.

They all carry tuition fees in their arms, you look at me, but they don't dare to take the first step, as if the first person admits defeat.

"What to do? Do you still pay the money? Someone in the crowd asked.

"It's too expensive! Two taels of silver, I only saved so much money all year round. People from poor families couldn't help but complain, "Why don't we talk about bargaining again?" Maybe she'll agree! ”

"Huh! You're thinking it's beautiful. Huang Dazhou, who was the first to apologize today, couldn't help but break the cold water, "If you send your daughter to learn art, the master will ask for five taels of silver to apprentice money, and half of the income in the first two years after learning will have to be taken away from your daughter." Shen Yingniang only needs us two taels of silver, you are still too expensive, believe it or not, people directly regret not paying us? ”

"Yo! Some people were frightened in the afternoon, even their bones were soft, and a big man actually apologized to a child, but he really had face, and now he is still teaching people here, playing majestic, it's really interesting. "The people of the Huang Dashan family couldn't help but have a strange aura of yin and yang.

"You guys!" Huang Dazhou's face turned pale, and he shook his hand and walked towards Shen Yingniang's house, "Forget it, you can say whatever you want, I'll pay the money, when the time comes, I will learn before you, make more money, don't regret it!" ”

He left in a rage, but he didn't expect what kind of waves these words caused in the crowd.

Those who were still waiting and hesitating before made up their minds at once and followed in his footsteps, for fear that they would be left behind one step later.

Shen Yingniang and Yue Lingjun were talking in the courtyard while waiting for someone.

Seeing that no one had come to the door for a long time, she was ready to wash and sleep, Yue Lingjun was locking the door, and there was a knock on the door, "Lady Yue, I'm here to pay the money." ”

Yue Lingjun looked back at Shen Yingniang, Shen Yingniang nodded at him, he opened the door, Huang Dazhou saw him and scratched his head, "I came to learn to make dim sum from your daughter-in-law, and your daughter-in-law agreed." ”

"Come in." Shen Yingniang beckoned, "My husband collects the money, you just give the money to him." ”

Her voice fell, and an army of money paid poured in, "I, I, we will pay too." ”

In an instant, a large group of people poured in the courtyard, but fortunately, Shen Yingniang had expected it, and it was so noisy that she couldn't even hear her voice. Fortunately, Shen Yingniang had expected it, took out a gong from under the stone table, and struck it hard, the courtyard instantly quieted down, and a pair of eyes fell on her.

As a person who has seen a big scene, even dozens of pairs of eyes Shen Yingniang is not afraid, she stood there quietly, raised her voice and said:

"Let me make it clear first, the two taels of silver are just tuition, not including the cost of materials for making dim sum. You can choose to bring your own materials, or you can choose to buy them from me, and you can give me the money. The people who have paid the money, each family can only send one person to come to me to learn to make snacks, and after completing the study, you can't teach it to your family without my permission, otherwise it will be a breach of contract, and you will pay me a hundred taels of silver. ”

After she finished speaking, the courtyard became quieter, and the sound of breathing could be heard.

"Shen Yingniang, what do you mean by this?" Huang Dashan roared angrily, "First said that he wanted to teach us to make dim sum, and then he said that he would collect money, and now there is no material fee, and he can't teach it to his family, aren't you playing with us?" ”

The others also thought the same way, and they all glared at Shen Yingniang fiercely and echoed Huang Dashan's words.

"Shen Yingniang has to be a person with a conscience, how can you make that black money? If you do that, we won't learn from you. ”

"Are you trying to get revenge on us? In any case, everyone is a villager, and don't pay too much attention to money, so as not to hurt the love between the people in the village. ”

In the face of many accusations, Shen Yingniang's back was still straight.

She glanced around lightly, and said unhurriedly:

"The dim sum in my shop is cheap for ten cents a catty, and the expensive one is five hundred wen a catty, and you can only buy dim sum a few times for two taels of silver.

I'm already a conscience price, is it possible to make dim sum materials, do you still want me to come out? Do you touch your conscience and see what you don't want to go? Two taels of silver is equivalent to giving you a secret recipe for nothing, and you still want to teach these to your family without my consent? Or sell to someone else? It's too beautiful, isn't it? ”

After she finished speaking, the people in the village fell silent.

Indeed, Shen Yingniang was telling the truth, but she didn't let them take advantage, they felt very uncomfortable.

"I said ugly things in the front, if you want me to teach you to make snacks, you must listen to me, and you have to sign a contract or you have to talk about it! Now if you want to pay the money, give it to my husband, and come to my house tomorrow, if you don't want to, go now. ”

Shen Yingniang is using this as a pilot to explore a new way out, but she is not a fool and lets others take advantage of her.

The scene was at a stalemate, and Yue Lingjun stood in front of Shen Yingniang, enveloping her with his body, revealing a silent guard.

Shen Yingniang looked at his back and felt reassured.

After a long time, Huang Dazhou said with difficulty: "Okay! I'll pay for it, but you have to teach us unreservedly, and don't hide it. ”

Shen Yingniang smiled, "Don't worry, I will definitely have no reservations." ”

Seeing her promise, Huang Dazhou took out two taels of silver from his arms and handed them to Yue Lingjun, and said meaningfully: "Everyone is a villager, you don't see you when you look up, you have to leave a line for everything." ”

"Yes." Shen Yingniang responded and wrote down his name on the pen at the same time.

After Huang Dazhou finished paying the money, he was about to leave, and Shen Yingniang called out to him, "I forgot to say, as long as you learn to make dim sum from me, you can choose to enter my store to do things after passing my assessment." ”

Huang Dazhou's eyes lit up, and a smile bloomed on his face, "Okay, good, that's good." ”

He left happily, and the rest of the villagers looked at each other and swarmed forward, clamoring for payment.

You must know that the money given by Shen Yingniang's shop is not ordinarily high, even the shopkeeper has one or two a month, if the people of their family go in, it will be an iron rice bowl, and they will be guaranteed in the future.

In the middle of the night, sending the last person who signed up to leave, Shen Yingniang collapsed on the bed tiredly, she never thought that writing was so tired, but it was all worth it.

The next day, Shen Yingniang got up early, prepared breakfast, and after the family ate casually, she asked Yue Lingjun to take Chang'an Changle to the county seat.

Today she is going to start a class to teach, I am afraid that there will be too many people, and Chang'an Changle is not used to it.

But Chang'an Changle didn't want to leave here, and hugged Shen Yingniang's thighs and coquettishly, "Mother, we're not afraid of those people, just let us stay here?" Besides, we can also help and watch if those people are lazy! ”

Shen Yingniang disagreed, "There are too many people, what if you are bullied?" You're all my little darling, and I don't want to see you wronged. ”

Changle held his face stupidly, "It's okay, mother, we are not afraid of being wronged, as long as we can be by my mother's and father's side." ”

These words hit Shen Yingniang's soft heart, and she smiled and nodded, "Okay, you can stay." ”

Changle glared at Chang'an, Chang'an was beaming in his heart, but there was not much fluctuation on his face, but he gave her a thumbs up more than once behind his back.

With Yue Lingjun's help, Shen Yingniang prepared the tools and materials needed to make snacks and put them on the makeshift board in the yard.

Then she asked Yue Lingjun to go door-to-door to inform the people who came to learn to make dim sum what things to bring, and when she was done with all this, the time came.

Looking at the girls dressed simply and capably, the smile on Shen Yingniang's face deepened.

"Today we are going to learn to make mung bean cakes, but before we learn to make dim sum, I want to look at your hands, and you will stretch out your hands."

Shen Yingniang's prestige spread all over the village, and although these girls didn't like her, they also knew that they couldn't afford to mess with her.

They obediently stretched out their hands, but they didn't understand why Shen Yingniang wanted to look at their hands.

Shen Yingniang shuttled through the crowd, picked up their hands and looked at them carefully, and after reading them, she walked to the board, and the expression on her face became serious.

"We make dim sum, do you know what the most important thing is?"

The girls were silent.

They hadn't made snacks, so how did they know that?

Shen Yingniang raised her eyebrows, "If you answer correctly, you will be rewarded with a penny." ”

With money as bait, they scrambled to answer.

"Heat!"

"Appearance!"

"Is it delicious?"

“……”

They gave a lot of answers, but none of them were on point, Shen Yingniang kept shaking her head, her face became more serious, she pressed her hand down, signaling them not to answer again.

"It's clean." Shen Yingniang unveiled the final answer, and saw that someone was very unconvinced, she continued, "What we make is the entrance of things, if it is not clean, the guests eat vomiting and diarrhea, our reputation will be ruined, and no one will come to us to buy snacks, and even lose money, do you say that cleanliness is the most important?" ”

The girls suddenly realized.

Truly.

They used to buy candy people outside, and after eating, they had diarrhea, and they wanted to scold the candy seller to death, if it wasn't for the candy seller's new place, they would definitely have to lose money if they couldn't find it.

"You're right! We agree! ”

Shen Yingniang nodded, "Then take a closer look at your hands now to see if there is mud in your nails, whether they are still stained with unwashed oil, whether they are black and white?" ”

After being reminded, they looked down at their hands, and their faces turned red with dirty hands.

Her hands are so dirty!

Even if there is mud in the nails, the palms of the hands are stained with black pot ash.

Shen Yingniang didn't say anything, just reminded: "Now you line up one by one to wash your hands with the soap corner I bought, and then check in groups of ten people in pairs." If there is anything that has not been cleaned, I will return the money to you, and you will not use me to learn dim sum in the future! ”
