76 Daddy Lin and Aunt Lin sell konjac tofu
Lin Qianqian looked carefully at the atlas in the book, trying to understand the working principle of the stone mill.
The stone mill is usually made of two cobblestones, the mill is two layers of the plane, the junction of the two layers has a texture, the grain enters the middle of the two layers from the hole above, moves outward along the texture, and is ground when rolled through the two layers to form a powder or pulp.
Underneath the mill is a slightly larger chassis than the mill, and there is a shallow ditch around it, and after the powder or slurry from the stone mill flows out, it collects into the stone ditch, and then flows down the stone ditch to the barrel and basin and other containers underneath.
The principle of this is simple.
Lin Qianqian searched in the memory of the original owner, and found that the memory of the original owner had no impression of such a thing as stone grinding, and he didn't know if there was no such thing as stone grinding in this era, or if the original owner was too lonely and unheard of to see it.
She didn't want to delve into this problem, so she would go to the county tomorrow to find out if there was such a thing as a stone mill.
With a stone mill, the process of mashing konjac into a puree will save a lot of manpower and time, and the efficiency of making konjac tofu will be greatly improved.
Lin Qianqian found what she needed, and the sleepy insect also came up, she blew out the candle, felt back to her house, hugged the new quilt, and fell asleep contentedly.
When the sun crept up to the top of the mountain, the Lin family woke up.
Last night, Daddy Lin went to the mayor's house overnight and pushed the wheelbarrow.
Several people worked together to carry a few buckets of konjac tofu onto two wheelbarrows, and the family pushed the two carts and set off towards Dachun County.
Since there are a lot of konjac tofu that need to be carried today, and it takes two cars to transport it, Lin Qian asked Father Lin and Aunt Lin to go with him last night.
Daddy Lin pushed a car, and Aunt Lin was helping by the side.
Lin Mingming was pushing another car, and Lin Qianqian was next to him to assist him in pushing.
The dragon and phoenix twins jumped up and down behind, and when they went uphill, the two of them obediently came to help push the cart.
After the group arrived at the vegetable market in the county, it was still early, and there was already an endless stream of people lingering in the vegetable field.
They came early, and yesterday's prime position has not yet been occupied.
The place Lin Qian looked for was a temporary stall, there was no fixed stall owner, and whoever came early would occupy a stall, which was an unwritten rule.
After Lin Qianqian instructed everyone to put things in order, he immediately shouted.
"Selling konjac tofu, selling konjac tofu, three pennies a piece, one piece of three pennies, one piece has almost a catty, enough for two people to eat a full meal, men eat strength, women can beautify their faces, children eat to grow their bodies, and the elderly eat body sticks."
"Sell konjac tofu, sell konjac tofu, the most authentic konjac tofu produced in Quxi Village, a piece of sanwen money, a piece of sanwen money, fried and eaten, cold salad, stewed meat, braised and steamed and stuffy, everything is OK, it's not delicious, only you can't think of it, come and take a look, take a look, after this point, it's sold out, and you can't eat it today."
......
Lin Qianqian's shouting words were novel and chic, not only passers-by, but also stall owners selling things nearby all cast their eyes, and everyone looked at her with a smile.
The dragon and phoenix fetuses are not idle, one person carries a tray, and when he sees people, he lets people taste it, and when people taste it, they keep selling their konjac tofu.
"Auntie, this is the konjac tofu made from the secret recipe left by my ancestors, eating this can live a long life and prolong life, but it is delicious, the price is not expensive, you have to get a big piece of sanwen, if you want it, buy it quickly, it will be sold out when it is late."
"Grandma, this is suitable for you to eat, you see, it is very soft and fragrant, you can eat it without teeth, you have no problem eating it every day, it is better than big buns and steamed buns, and it is more fragrant than noodles and white rice, I don't believe you can taste it."
......
Many people began to taste it driven by curiosity, and after they ate it, they found that the thing was really delicious, and then the price was quite right, so many people had the desire to buy.
Lin Ming was standing in front of several wooden barrels, and when someone stepped forward, he immediately greeted him warmly.
"Auntie, how many pieces do you want? Is three pieces enough? If it's not enough, let's get another piece. "This is for an aunt.
"Uncle, when you look at your family's population, how can two yuan be enough, at least four yuan." This is said to an uncle.
"Grandma, look at your old teeth and mouth so good, your body is so good, you can definitely eat one piece at a meal, and you can eat another piece at night, plus your grandchildren at home or something, six yuan is just right, come on, you take it, charge you eighteen yuan, no more, no less." This is to an old woman.
"Oh, uncle, you want eleven pieces, you wait, I'll do the math...... Eldest sister, eldest sister, eldest sister, how much does eleven dollars cost? Lin Mingming loaded konjac tofu for an old man, but when it was time to collect the money, he got stuck, and hurriedly ran to Lin Qianqian and pulled her back to settle the account.
"Thirty-three cents." Lin Qian said reflexively, and after she finished speaking, she began to shout loudly again.
Everyone was so busy that their feet didn't touch the ground.
Only Father Lin and Aunt Lin stood stupidly with a helpless expression.
So many people gathered around to see konjac tofu, and people kept asking.
"Uncle, get me two pieces of konjac tofu, six cents, isn't it?"
"Auntie, come on, come on, put these three pieces for me, these three pieces look bigger."
"Auntie, I'll take two yuan and give you six yuan, you can take it."
.......
"Huh? Oh? Well? Father Lin and Aunt Lin were stunned, they didn't know how to deal with this chaotic scene at all.
There were so many people around them, and they felt so many pairs of eyes staring at them.
They involuntarily pull their clothes and comb their hair, for fear that others will laugh at them.
Today, before Lin Qianqian went out, he specially told everyone to put on new clothes and wash their faces and hands.
Father Lin and Aunt Lin have probably never been so clean in their lives.
They're so clean, they shouldn't be laughed at, and they feel like they're looking at them like monkeys.
In the interval between Lin Qianqian's shouting, he sighed in his heart when he saw Father Lin and Aunt Lin cowering.
She put down her shouting work for the time being, and stood in front of the stall while talking to Daddy Lin and Aunt Lin while dealing with the guests.
"Dad, mother, you don't know how to count, you don't know how to collect money, you can help Xiao Ming to help, fill the guests with konjac tofu, and let Xiao Ming look at the money you collect, or let Xiao Ming collect the money directly."
"Xiao Ming, you are responsible for collecting the money, how many pieces did your father and mother put on the guests, you just look at the dots and take back the copper plate."
.....
Father Lin and Aunt Lin nodded.
"Uncle, I want two pieces of konjac tofu."
"Uncle, uncle, I want two pieces."
......
A young woman shouted a few times in a row, but Daddy Lin seemed to be still sleepwalking, hanging his head, and no response was made to anyone who called him.
