The shopkeeper of Sifangzhai took Ning Changrong and the recipe he gave to the dim sum master behind him to check, and after the other party confirmed that there was no problem, he was relieved.

After the handover, Ning Changrong said again, he had sold the county lieutenant's steward, but he made it at home and would not sell it out.

The steward of Sifangzhai shook his head with a smile, "I really can't see that you are a peasant man." "It's so shrewd. The money has been handed over clearly, and the deed has been signed, even if he minds, what can he do?

It's really tangled, people still sell it first, and his transaction request is generated later.

"If you're not in a hurry, Brother Evergreen will sit here for a while, and I'll let the dim sum chef borrow it for the kitchen, and let you taste whether our pastry is different from yours."

Ning Changrong knew that the other party was still not at ease, one hundred and fifty taels was not a small amount, so he simply sat down and waited together.

In a few moments, the pastry chef brought out the pastry.

The craftsmanship is really good, no different from what they do, and the shopkeeper of Sifangzhai is relieved. If the recipe he bought for one hundred and fifty taels can't be used, how can he explain it to the owner?

After selling the recipe, Ning Chengrong didn't plan to continue to come out before the New Year. It's time to get ready for the New Year, and the things at home that should be tinkered with have to start getting up.

Anyway, it's the first New Year in ancient times, and you still have to pay attention to it.

After going to the fang market to sell the pastries he brought, Ning Changrong took another pot of oil home, without bringing a container, and spent an extra three dollars to buy an oil pot, he estimated that the amount of oil used during the New Year must be very large, and the oil at home may not be enough.

I also exchanged all the one hundred and fifty taels of silver tickets into silver and carried them in the back basket, and returned home in horror all the way, the silver tickets were convenient, but the scene of the last years of this dynasty was still solid silver, who knows when this silver ticket will become waste paper?

……

"What!? One hundred and fifty taels?! "Ning Qingxi and Wang Xiujuan didn't expect Fang Zi to be able to sell for so much money. In fact, in Ning Qingxi, it would be good to be able to sell it for fifty taels of silver.

After all, that little steamed cake doesn't look difficult.

But Ning Qingxi didn't know that the expensive part of this recipe was not the difficulty, but its uniqueness. Even if this recipe is not difficult, people will not be able to study it for a while.

"Great, now the family finally has a bottom." Otherwise, it always feels empty, as if the family will collapse if something happens, and Wang Xiujuan is still afraid of the matter of conscription when she first came.

If the cow wasn't really too cheap, they would have bought it or picked up a big leak, and she would never agree to spend all the money. At this time, she has money in her hands, and she is not panicked, so Wang Xiujuan pondered what it would be to buy more at home, and if the house was repaired, there was no condition before, but now that she has money, she can't wronged herself.

Speaking of conscription, it seems that these people should also come back, and it has been almost two months. Originally, it was said that it was forty days of forced labor, but the officials of other families would definitely not release them on time, and they would generally delay it for a few days. But now it's been half a month, and I don't know what's going on, and there is no news of coming back.

said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, Wang Xiujuan only talked about it in the morning, and in the afternoon, those people who went to serve in the village came back.

Wang Xiujuan's family went to see it, or the village chief brought people back, when they went, if these people were bamboo poles, then only skin and bones were left when they came back, some people were still lame, holding their arms, and there was a faint cry in the crowd, just when Wang Xiujuan's family was puzzled, Mrs. Ding pulled her son over with red eyes, obviously just cried. Her son Ning Miao's eyes were sunken, and the bones on his face were only covered with a layer of skin, and the invisible places on his body were estimated to be about the same. But compared to the others, he is better limb and came back alive.

Wang Xiujuan's family only learned from Mrs. Ding that five of the people who went to serve in the conscription this time could not come back, and it was the parents and relatives of that family who were crying in the crowd. This time, the working hours of the imperial court were relatively rushed, and the people who were recruited were carrying stones down the mountain day and night, and the people on the mountain kept mining stones.

In ancient times, there were no tools to blow up mountains, and they were all mined by humans.

That's why they came back later than usual, day and night in the mines, and the overseers often whipped them, and many people died, and then they had to make up for all the work they hadn't done.

Mrs. Ding wiped her tears and said, don't look at his son, he doesn't seem to be injured, but there are whips on his back and legs. But I finally picked up a life and came back.

Wang Xiujuan and Ning Qingxi went back first after hearing this, and this incident was too shocking for them.

"Milk." Although those people who died did not get along with Ning Qingxi, in her memory, she could still find what those people used to be.

"Sissy, don't be afraid, our family will always be together." Wang Xiujuan saw that Ning Qingxi was wrong, and hurriedly hugged her.

"Milk, I'm not afraid, our family will definitely be able to live well here, we still have a golden finger!"

Ning Qingxi suppressed the fear in his heart, and began to think about what weapon to use again, this court that had suffered a thousand knives was unreliable. Their family can only protect themselves!

Ning Changrong went home after watching Ning Daniu, and before he sat down, he began to complain constantly:

"In ancient times, conscription was actually a very common thing, but there had never been such a large mortality rate before, at least in the memory of the old people in the village, at most they came back hungry, and the more unfortunate thing was that they were missing arms and legs, and the most serious thing was that they died one or two. It's the first time it's so miserable. Fortunately, our family had the money together at that time. ”

Ning Changrong complained and scolded the court, and when he finished speaking, he found that the ancestors and grandsons on the opposite side did not speak. When I looked up, I noticed that the atmosphere in the house was a little wrong.

"What's wrong?"

Wang Xiujuan shook her head, "I just didn't expect these people to have such a miserable life, and it was a little difficult to accept at first glance." ”

Wang Xiujuan was still glad when she thought of Mrs. Ding telling her, as if her son was so hungry that he didn't miss an arm or a broken leg, even if he had whiplashes all over his body, this time he might greatly consume his life, but it was already a great blessing to finally pick up a life and come back.

The atmosphere between the three of them was a little heavy for a while, until a voice broke it.

"Is anyone home?"

The three of them glanced at each other, Ning Changrong got up and went out to entertain, and the Ning family was still at the entrance of the village. There were only three of them in the house.

"Yo, is that you?"

The person who came was the merchant that Ning Changrong called home before.

The young merchant grinned: "I want to get some chilblain cream again this time, do you still have it at home?" ”

Ning Changrong warmly welcomed him to sit in the front yard and brought a glass of water, "Yes, how about it?" I didn't coax you, did it, it sold well, did it? ”

The merchant took the water and thanked him again and again.

When he heard Ning Changrong talk about business, the merchant's eyes lit up, "This thing is really easy to sell, many people can't afford the ointment in the county in winter, so they scraped together the money to buy it for me to buy chilblain ointment for the family." ”

"Do you still have one? This time I'm going to take fifty bottles. ”

In fact, in the first village where the merchant went, all the chilblain cream was sold, but his other goods were not sold out, so he had to go on. As soon as the things were sold, he immediately turned back, and he didn't even come home to buy the money he had just earned, and he was also going to take two bottles home for his family.

Ning Changrong asked him to try it, and his hands didn't itch after a day.

Ning Changrong asked him to sit down first and went to pick up the goods himself. Pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, when Ning Changrong delivered the goods to the door, the Ning family came back. In addition to Li Dafeng, it is estimated that he is still chatting with others.

Ning Qingxi looked at Ning Changrong who came in and asked, "Dad, who is it just now?" ”

"The merchant, the person who sold chilblain cream to our family, sold it well, and came to get fifty bottles, which should be able to sell a lot this winter, and you should be able to earn a few taels of silver for this chilblain cream."

Her grandmother's recipe had just earned one hundred and fifty taels of silver, and Ning Qingxi felt as if she had floated, and she couldn't look down on these taels of silver anymore.
