Chapter 68 The opening of the shop is auspicious
Two days later, Ye Jing's noodle shop opened, and Yuqing took the time to paint a few propaganda posters. Although there were no firecrackers and no prior publicity, the opening day of the shop was full of color.
Originally, it was a cake shop, and the exterior wall of the shop is covered with festive pictures, white-skinned buns, dumplings like ingots, round pies and small wontons. It immediately attracted the attention of passers-by, and when I arrived at the shop, I saw the steaming new pasta, and I immediately had an appetite.
Many people buy a steamed bun and eat a bowl of hot meat-stuffed wontons, which saves money and fills up. If you are in a hurry, you can directly pinch a few big buns and eat vegetables and rice while walking. Or a few baked oily pies, although the vegetable filling is better than being baked with oil, and it is fragrant in the mouth. As a result, the aroma spread almost all over the imperial city, and the prepared noodles and fillings were sold out in half a day. The shop was hung with a sign that it was closed, and many of the diners who came here made an appointment to come early tomorrow.
"Eldest son, Aunt Biscuit has been making pasta for ten years, and business has never been as good as it is today, although I am tired and happy."
"Yes, this is nothing, my aunt is much more tired than farming in the countryside. Eldest son, you are really a business brain. It seems that people from the restaurant also came to buy steamed buns and dumplings today. ”
"Well, if they can buy from us in large quantities, we can make it easier. My sister said that this is not a technical thing, and what we sell is a fresh one. When there are more people imitating us in the future, the business of the shop will not be as hot as it is today, and at that time, we will be able to wholesale pasta to restaurants. Ye Jing said happily.
"Eldest son, when the time comes, we just have to do it or sell it, of course, we will have no worries."
"It's just that this season is the time when there is a shortage of grain, and the price of rice and noodles in the grain store has risen again."
"Aunt Biscuit, my sister also said yesterday about this, now we use a mixture of coarse noodles and fine noodles, and we can make coarse noodles separately in the future, and put some effort into the filling, so that the cost is a little smaller. After the beginning of spring, we can also make wild vegetable filling, and for those who are rich, we will launch pure thin noodles and pure meat filled pasta. Let our shop be aimed at ordinary people and take into account the crowd with a lot of money,"
"Young master, Miss Zhuang is the smartest, as long as you can earn more money, it's not a problem to be tired." Xiuxiu finished the account and said.
"Xiu, this is all in line with the previous ten days and eight days of our shop." Aunt Biscuit said, looking at the strings of copper plates.
"Mother, although the shop is not ours anymore, we also earn no less wages, and the eldest young master is a good owner. Young master, these copper plates still have to be exchanged for silver at the bank. ”
"Sister Xiu, you're right. Today's business is very good, and everyone is rewarded with ten copper plates. Sister Xiu, you go with me to buy noodles and vegetables, cakes, auntie, auntie, you stay in the shop to tidy up the tables and chairs. ”
"Thank you, eldest son!" The aunt looked at the ten copper plates given by Ye Jing, and couldn't help complaining in her heart about her daughter Huaihua, if she was willing to come, the two of them would have twenty copper plates. Alas!
The garland is following Yuqing to do the ring at this time. In the morning, Ye Jing, who went to the imperial city to open a shop, sent away, and Yuqing and a few beggars went to the back mountain to hunt. Although I didn't want to bring the women in the villa with me this time, there were still a lot of people who knew Xin'er.
"Miss, the nasty people in that courtyard are also here." Garland looked at the seventh aunt who walked at the back and no one cared about it. Since she was kicked out, the Garland family really treated her as a stranger, and they also spoke with Yuqing's name.
"It's really her, it's not safe for her to go up the mountain alone, you wait here, Miss Ben persuades her to go back."
"Miss is kind-hearted, and she doesn't know how to appreciate her when she is the kind of person who cares about her." Garland muttered.
"Seventh uncle, you didn't have a companion to come alone."
"Yes, can't you come alone, I have hands and feet, and you have to take care of it on the mountain of the villa."
"Seventh uncle, we won't stop anyone who comes to hunt in the mountains, but this season is also a time when it is difficult for wild beasts to forage for food, and it is not safe for one person. Also, the owner of the farm doesn't want to see what happened last time happen again. Looking at the appearance of the seventh uncle, Yuqing simply said it bluntly.
"You don't have to worry about life or death, you six courtyards would rather help the countryside buns than help the relatives surnamed Ye." The seventh aunt wanted to spill and shouted again.
"Seventh uncle, life is lived by yourself, as you said, you have hands and feet, and others can't help you for a lifetime. My aunt works in my house and earns a monthly profit, and no one cares about this. ”
"It's a white-eyed wolf, like I don't care about them eating. Who's going to slap you in the face, owner, I'm not going back. You don't have to waste my time. ”
"Miss, there are a lot of white-eyed wolves fed by chickens, ducks and fish in this world, and a few ghost uncles are waiting for you." Garland led the big red horse over and said coldly, and at this moment someone shouted.
"Miss Ran, the wild boars have come down."
"Everyone pay attention to safety, Seventh Uncle, you can't do it if you don't listen to the owner of the village, you are single and pay attention to your own safety." After Yuqing finished speaking, he turned over and rushed to the mountain.
"Master, for the kind of person who doesn't know what to do, it's a waste of saliva to say more. There were a dozen wild boars coming down, enough for these people to have a good year. The soul pen said in Yuqing's divine consciousness.
"It's you again, don't go too far, just don't hurt people."
"Master, they are all confused now, it's up to who has the ability to kill them." Yuqing was talking to the soul pen, and the wild boar that was withdrawn to attack the soul had already caught fire with the hunters.
Although the boar has no attack power, it is not easy for these women to kill the boar. Halfway up the mountain, several women surrounded a wild boar, sticks and kitchen knives were in battle, the women's shouts and the howls of the wild boar echoed in the mountain.
The situation on the Ghost Boss's side was better, but he only killed two wild boars. Yuqing gave the mechanical horse an order at full speed, and saw that one person and one horse rushed into the middle of several wild boars. Yuqing flipped his sword and killed three wild boars in the blink of an eye. Seeing that there were still a few dizzy wild boars, Yuqing stopped killing. Looking back at the women who fought against the wild boar, my heart was filled with endless emotion. The troubled times have turned these women into butchers, and those who once didn't even dare to kill chickens and ducks now dare to kill wild boars. Fortunately, the women came in groups, and after half an hour, they really killed a few wild boars.
Look at those women again, they are all extremely embarrassed. The bun was disheveled, the clothes were torn, and there were scrapes on the hands and faces, but everyone was smiling.
"Miss Ran, these wild boars are too hungry to run, and they have finally been killed by us. A few of us went back, and this wild boar was enough for us to have a good year. An aunt said contentedly.
"It's okay, let's go back, it's too late for the family to worry."
"Master Yuqing, it's good luck to come with you, we came here once two days ago, but we caught a pheasant. Today's harvest is big, and this wild boar can be exchanged for some silver when it is killed. After the New Year, it is the Qingqing Festival, and a few of us will freeze the pork when we go back, and then sell it when we go back. An aunt also said with a smile.
"On the Green Day, the owner of the village forgot about it."
"Miss Zhuang, I heard that during the Qingqing Festival, people from the imperial city also came, so maybe you can meet the person you like when the time comes." A sister-in-law joked.
"Yes, Ye Xuan and Zhen'er have already discussed this matter, and there will be no fewer people going to our villa when the time comes. Let's go, go back and kill the pigs and divide the meat. ”
Soon, several groups of people were almost gone, and the ghost boss and several people also dragged three wild boars down the mountain, and Yuqing who saw them were all amazed.
"Miss Ran, I wanted to wait for you, but the wild boar came down. It took five of us big men to kill three wild boars, and one of your young ladies killed as many wild boars as we did. In the future, you will also teach us kung fu, how much game will have to be raised in such a big barren mountain. ”
"Third Uncle Ghost, you learn kung fu to kill beasts to satisfy your appetite, this Miss Ben can't teach you, your ideal is too much."
"Miss Zhuang laughed at me for being a ghost, and I also had a fire burning in my heart, so I used the beast to practice my hands, both meat and kung fu to kill two birds with one stone."
"Ghost San'er, you're a bit serious, we should go down the mountain if we drag the wild boar. Miss Zhuang Owner, you didn't run into trouble when you went to the Imperial City this time, did you? ”
"Yes, Miss Zhuang, it's been a few days since you came back, and it's inconvenient to ask you in the villa, the new emperor didn't embarrass you, right?" Ghost Er asked after the words of the Ghost Boss.
"Fortunately, I finally walked out of the palace. The emperor also issued a holy decree, and in the future, our villa will be called back to Ye's villa. The original reward was in the air, but the plague was controlled, and it was finally in vain to go to the palace. "What Yuqing said is simple, but it is not so simple to listen to the ears of the ghost boss. They also revere the righteousness of Miss Zhuang in their hearts, she really only thinks about the people and thinks about the great cause of Yan Kingdom. How could the dog emperor not be difficult to be their apprentice. I just don't know how the owner got out.
"Miss Zhuang, it's a good thing to be able to get out of the palace. In the past few days that you have been away from the villa, Ye Xuan and Zhen'er have been busy with the Spring Youth Festival. In addition to Miss Childe's blind date, this Qingqing Festival is also the largest market every year. If the owner doesn't object, my brothers and I also want to go to the market to make some pocket money. The ghost boss said a little worriedly.
"Uncle Ghost, this is a good thing, even if you don't want to go out, the owner of the village will also send you out. The lodge is full of young girls, and it is always necessary to ensure their safety. That day, the boys all went out and left the matter of guarding the gates of the villa to the boys. There's nothing worrying about having my kung fu master with you, ghost uncle and uncle, it's better to bring back your aunt and aunt. Yuqing joked.
"Miss Zhuang, how dare you say anything, but this is to our hearts, we used to beg for food and think that those were dreams, but now with the owner, it is different. When the recipe on the side of the dry well is built, we will also become a family with a person who knows the cold and the heat, and the second half of our lives will be complete. ”
"Ghost three, you can also say anything, Miss Zhuang should laugh at us for being disrespectful." Ghost Er said very embarrassedly.
"Uncle Ghost Uncle, you are not old and you are in the prime of life, you will work hard that day, Miss Ben will help you marry a daughter-in-law." Yuqing smiled until her expression was serious.
A total of six wild boars were dragged back to the lodge, and it was just after noon to see the hour. After the wild boars were disposed of, the pigs were left in the water to prepare dinner for the children and beggars who were eating together. I also gave the ghost boss some copper plates, which was regarded as a reward for the hard work of hunting in the mountains. Yuqing gave half a tael of silver per person, which was regarded as the hard work of helping to kill the pigs.
"Miss Zhuang, we don't want this silver, we are the Zhuang soldiers to help the villa hunting, and helping Miss Zhuang's pig killing is something we are willing to do, how can we ask for extra money." The ghost boss took the lead in resigning.
"Uncle Ghost, I'll take it for you, and buy some gadgets for the Green Festival." Ye Xuan laughed.
"Yes, these girls we went out that day still need your help to take care of them." Zhen'er said sincerely.
"Then we'll take it, Miss Zhen'er, even if you don't say it, we will ensure that you go out happily and come back satisfied and safely." The ghost boss said that he and a few beggars were collecting the wild boar meat into the storeroom.
"Owner, if you don't plan to sell some pork, those who haven't gone hunting will definitely buy it and keep it for the New Year." Watching Yuqing put the pork in a bag and put it on horseback, Zhen'er couldn't help but ask.
"These are all left for Ye Jing's noodle shop to make meat filling, and some gifts for the New Year. Jing'er is less than ten years old and has to support the sixth courtyard, and I, as an older sister, can not help much. By the way, save some stomach during the Chinese New Year, I'm going to send you pork. ”
"Master Yuqing, it's better to fold it into silver, the pork can't reach a few pieces in our mouths." Ye Xuan said with a bitter face.
"Ahh Look at your bitter and hateful face, is there something going on in the yard? “
"She's been urged to marry by her mother, and her in-laws have already found it."
"Zhen'er, what you said is true, that's a big deal, wait for me to send the pork back and talk about it well."
Ye Xuan was really driven crazy by her mother, this time she was arrested by the court patrol, everyone learned a lesson, but she was inspired differently, and when she came back, she said that she had found a man for Ye Xuan as the head of the guard. Just this morning, when Ye Xuan went out, she was nagged by her mother's ear: "Xuan'er, don't be confused, although the other party died and left two children, but there are dozens of people under his hands, and the size is also a court official, you are married to a new string, and the big one is also a dead man." When the time comes, I will see who dares to arrest me casually, I expected you to take care of the silver in the villa, but it turned out that my mother couldn't spend a copper plate. It's better to be an official wife at a lower price, and your mother can also get a little light with you. “
"Mother, I don't want to be a stepmother, there is a dead person above, I am also a little person, so it is better to enter the palace to draft a little wife for the emperor."
"Confused, there is such a good opportunity, the owner will leave it to you, besides, how can the emperor's little wife be so good, it will be difficult to enter the palace and want to get out of the palace, no matter how beautiful you are in it, how much strength can your mother's family get."
"Mother, you are always selfishly thinking about your own interests, but you have ever thought about whether your daughter will be happy in the second half of her life. If the head daughter of the guard doesn't marry, she just won't marry! “
