Before the second oven was ready, they ate up a few chicken cakes with the charred skin peeled off.

The dog kept licking his fingers, and looked at Li Xiaoyue with a blank eye, "Grandma, the dog still wants to eat it." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Goudan smelled the fragrance from the bread kiln, and immediately ran over, squatted on the edge of the oven, and twitched his nose vigorously to inhale the fragrance.

When the incense burned to two-thirds, Li Xiaoyue opened the door of the furnace and took it out to see that the brown skin was golden yellow after it was poured down.

Liu Changle exclaimed, "Mother, this time is just right, fragrant and sweet." ”

Li Xiaoyue chuckled, "One person can only eat one piece, and the eldest girl and the dog egg are half a piece each, if you eat too much, it is easy to accumulate food." I'm going to send the rest to your grandfather, uncles, and cousins. ”

She was able to live comfortably here, in fact, thanks to the help of her mother's family.

The remaining raw materials can still be made sixteen, and Li Xiaoyue directly put two chicken cake mold trays into the oven.

This time it took a little more time than the last time, and when I took it out again, the baking was a success.

The basket was covered with a cage cloth, and sixteen pieces were placed, "Changhuan, send it to your eldest aunt." ”

The rest is to be shared among your own family.

Zhou Xiaohua grinded in the backyard for a while, and when she came back again, the chicken cake was ready.

She reached out and grabbed half of it, just like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit, she ate it in a few bites.

She still wanted to steal food, but was caught by Li Xiaoyue, "It's not much, I have to leave some for Changfu Cuihong." ”

Zhou Xiaohua's eyes rolled, "Mother, I have eaten everything I made today, will I still do it tomorrow?" ”

"Do it next afternoon, when you come to beat the egg liquid, I will give you an extra piece to eat." Li Xiaoyue can only lure this daughter-in-law with a hob meat character.

Zhou Xiaohua didn't see the benefits before, and she didn't want to do it, but now she knows that this thing is so delicious, of course she wants to learn, and she can eat more, "Thank you, mother, I will do it well tomorrow afternoon." ”

Cooking at noon, the sister-in-law was not at home, Zhou Xiaohua performed very well, competing to help make lunch.

Li Xiaoyue is responsible for frying, Zhou Xiaohua and Liu Changhuan are responsible for playing and cooperating tacitly.

Li Xiaoyue had just delivered the meal to the table under the grass shed outside, when Liu Changfu, Wu Cuihong, and Brother Li came back.

When Wu Cuihong saw her mother-in-law, she swept away yesterday's frustration, her eyes were red with excitement, and she stuffed all the money full of purse into her mother-in-law's hand.

"Mother, the ten stoves that were pulled out in the morning have been sold, and all the honeycomb coal has been sold. Many people don't buy it, give us a deposit, and let us send it to our home! ”

Li Xiaoyue smiled, "Isn't that good?" Don't cry, I said to take you to a good life, and I will never break my word. By the way, when selling stoves, did you read the notice and ask them to press their fingerprints? ”

Wu Cuihong nodded again and again, "I read it, the other party understood, and pressed the handprint." I've sorted it out, mother, take a look. ”

Li Xiaoyue held the purse containing money in one hand, took the notice with the other, and nodded in praise.

"Yes, big brother, you will take Changfu to be responsible for the delivery in the afternoon. Looking at Dian Changfu, this child is irritable and irritable, and I don't feel at ease when he goes out to do things. ”

Brother Li was worried that things would not be sold, and he was embarrassed to accept the wages given by his sister. Now that the business is good, my sister's family has another way to make money.

"Xiaoyue, don't worry, I'm watching. Changfu is more mature than before, and it will be better in the future. Brother Li praised and hoped that this eldest nephew could support the family, so that his sister could be more relaxed.

Li Laohan was also quite happy and relieved to learn that the stove and honeycomb coal were easy to sell.

Li Laohan didn't want to be tired of his daughter, so after noon, he took his son and grandchildren home for dinner.

When Li Laohan ate the chicken cake at home, he was very shocked, his daughter was really good, and it was actually better than the pastries in the county seat.

Sister-in-law Li praised, "Dad, our sister Xiaoyue has used her brain to do business, that is, she is smart." ”

My sister-in-law has always been clever, but most of them are calculating, and they don't have much to do.

When Brother Li heard his wife say about his sister, he reminded him loudly, "Don't say a word, my little sister is still good, and the chicken cake made will give more than half of our family." ”

Sister-in-law Li smiled and nodded, "Well, I won't talk about it in the future." Dad, you eat. ”

"Eat it too." Li Laohan smiled, "I really didn't expect those pulverized coal to be so profitable, it is estimated that every household in the town will use stoves and honeycomb coal in the future." ”

When Brother Li heard this, his eyes lit up, "Dad, you're right." It's really much better than burning firewood, and it's convenient. When the town is sold out, we will go to the county seat to sell stoves and honeycomb coal. ”

"Don't rush, take your time." Li Laohan smiled, "After Xiaoyue takes Changhuan to visit Gongsun's Mansion, I will slowly expand the business in the county." ”

Li Laohan is really happy for his daughter.

In the afternoon, Liu Changfu and his uncle drove two ox carts to the town to deliver goods, making three trips back and forth in one afternoon.

Li Xiaoyue and Li Laohan went to Old Man Zhou's side and ordered 200 sets of stove accessories.

"Dad, why don't we do business together? I think it's a bit too little to pay my brother and nephews. Li Xiaoyue saw that her mother's family was doing her best, and she couldn't help but repay her mother's family more.

Li Laohan waved his hand and took a resolute attitude, "No, this is your family's unique business, and the Li family is not involved." One person is paid fifty yuan a day, and the salary is very high. If you want to honor me, it's not the same thing as business, don't mix it up. ”

Li Xiaoyue shook her head and smiled, "Hey, I know you don't want it, then I won't take you with you this time for the honeycomb coal business, next time, I think of a good idea, let's join forces and do a big deal." ”

"Okay!" Li Laohan did not refuse this time, "If you want to help, just say." ”

Li Xiaoyue's eyes lit up, and she thought that there were not many cotton seeds, and there was not much cotton harvested this year, but the frontier was close to the nomads, and there was not much else, just a lot of wool.

Although it is late spring, winter in the northwest is early, and the days are starting to get cold at most five months.

Keeping warm is imminent, and it's also good business.

"Daddy, can I get a bag of wool?" Li Xiaoyue thought of using wool to spin yarn and make a sweater.

In her previous life, she remembered that a classmate's hometown was in the grassland, and her family opened a handmade wool workshop, and she remembered it all by processing wool with ancient methods and finally making wool textiles.

Maybe it's her golden finger of crossing, those things are very clear in her mind, and even some tools, she can draw.

"Okay!" Li Laohan didn't ask a word, and directly agreed, "I'll get it for you in the next few days!" ”

"Ouch, Dad, why didn't you ask this time?" Li Xiaoyue turned her head sideways and looked at her old father.

The old father smiled, "Don't ask, I'm old, I can't keep up with you young people, give you a hand, work hard, and I'm waiting for you to take me to make a fortune!" ”

Li Xiaoyue smiled: "Thank you Daddy for trusting me." ”

"By the way, there are at least four gifts for the Gongsun family, are you ready?" Li Laohan asked, the day after tomorrow is the day after tomorrow is the day to go to Gongsun's house, and he cares about it very much.
