Chapter Ninety-Five: Lively
Tea is not expensive, two pennies a bowl, if sugar is added, a penny a bowl.
But anyone who comes out to see the excitement, the family has some foundation, if they can't eat, how can they have the leisure to come out to see the excitement, so there is no shortage of money to buy tea.
There are more shrewd people, who suddenly discovered the business opportunity, quickly went home to get pots and pans, and learned from Yuemingzhu's family to sell water.
They don't have wild chrysanthemums, and it is impossible to put tea leaves in them, so they can only put water in them, and at most put some sugar in them, but the taste is far from being comparable to chrysanthemum tea.
But the advantage is that it is sold cheaply, three bowls for a penny.
In fact, this is really quite cheap, and it is only when there is no shortage of water in Moon Shadow Village that it can be sold so cheaply, and a bowl of tea can even be sold for four or five cents a bowl at many intersections.
If you are greedy, you will buy clean water.
The disadvantage is that it is too cheap, who can dry the three bowls of water in one go, of course, you can also find someone to partner with, and everyone can buy it together.
Mrs. Wang didn't care about this at all.
Moon Shadow Village is not her family's, the water is not her family's, everyone can sell it, and besides, her family eats meat, and she has to let others drink soup.
For her family, selling tea is also a matter of convenience, mainly selling other goods.
Like melon seeds and peanuts, they are necessary for watching a play, otherwise it will be boring, a small bag of ten cents, and a bunch of them will be sold in a while.
There are also moon cakes, as soon as you open the oil paper bag, you can smell the fragrant aroma, many people rushed here, they were a little hungry, hooked by the fragrance, and immediately wanted to buy a piece to taste.
The moon cakes are made of real materials, they are really not cheap, and the current food price is expensive, so the price is ten cents each.
This price has scared off many people, just such a small piece of dim sum, the asking price is so high, not so solid people are only willing to buy a piece for their children to try, after all, it is a rarity.
Those people from the town and county are much more generous, and they don't care about these small amounts of money at all, they just buy and buy.
Tofu and soy products are raw, raw is not very tasty, and you can't smell the fragrance, some people ask curiously, but no one buys it.
Now the family is a little anxious, what can I do, today tofu and soy products are the most important.
Yue Mingzhu put on a hat when she found that there were a lot of outsiders, and there were always people in the province staring at her.
She also noticed this situation, so she came up with the idea of asking her two sisters-in-law to hurry home and make some cooked food with tofu and soy products.
The two sisters-in-law are neat people, so they immediately put down their work and went home, anyway, everyone in the family is here today, and there are enough people.
With the cooperation of each other, the two of them quickly made it, holding two large pots in their hands, which were in full swing, and the fragrance was wafting ten miles in the wind.
People were immediately attracted by the aroma of the food.
Because of the limited time, I made some home-cooked dishes, mapo tofu and fried tofu with leeks, but the color was bright and freshly cooked, which was very attractive.
These dishes are for people to taste, they are only tasted and not sold, and they are limited, and everyone cannot eat more.
Who doesn't love a free tasting, so the atmosphere is very lively.
Some people didn't have enough to eat, and wanted to fish in troubled waters, so they pretended to have tasted it and tried it again, but Mrs. Wang found it at once.
Mrs. Wang has a special magical advantage, as long as she has seen people will never forget it.
I have to say that the advantage of the old lady, Yue Mingzhu is really envious.
Because Yue Mingzhu is a relatively face-blind person, as long as it is not so distinctive, she rushes past her eyes and can't remember that person's face at all.
Mrs. Wang went to that station like a personal scanner, and caught several people in a row, but today is a good day, her own family is doing business, and she is angry and wealthy, and Mrs. Wang does not give people a faceless.
When everyone saw that this old lady was so powerful, they all stopped thinking about taking advantage.
After tasting it, everyone thinks that the taste is very special, especially in the current drought and shortage of vegetables, it is good to be able to add fresh food.
Immediately began to buy tofu and dried tofu, and some people were worried that they would not be able to buy it, so they were a little anxious.
Qiu Shi shouted loudly like a loudspeaker: "Don't worry, don't rob, this is all made by my workshop, tomorrow the workshop will be officially opened, and then it will be sold in the town and county, you don't need to buy too much, especially tofu, it's easy to spoil if you can't eat it." ”
Everyone is still enthusiastic, as if what they buy is what they earn, and Qiu Shi's voice is about to shout that it doesn't work.
In the end, it's rotten, whatever, it's a good thing to rob, it looks lively.
In order to let everyone learn how to do it, the sister-in-law even demonstrated the stir-fry method of tofu and dried tofu for everyone on the spot, and everyone praised the atmosphere.
Such a fresh recipe, if it is sold to a restaurant, how can it be sold for a few taels of silver, and now teach them for free, not everyone can do it.
In the midst of the hustle and bustle, it was not long before the sacrifice began.
The village chief stood on a high platform built in the village many years ago for sacrificial purposes, and said a few opening remarks, mainly to thank the people from other villages for coming from afar, and I have to say that the village chief still has two brushes.
Then he led the group to kneel down in the direction of Moonshadow Mountain, chanting aloud the sacrificial words that had been passed down over the years.
The gist of the sacrificial words is to thank the Moon God for his kindness, to protect the Moon Shadow Village, and to protect the villagers with abundant food and clothing, as a villager will never forget, and is willing to do his best to worship the Moon God from generation to generation, and pray that the Moon God can always protect this land.
Then he repented, to the effect that the villagers were mortal in the flesh, and many times they would be ignorant and make mistakes, and they would ask the moon god for forgiveness.
Speaking of emotion, the villagers wept one after another, and even choked up, and it was difficult to suppress their feelings.
Moon Pearl was shocked, the power of this belief was really powerful.
The sacrificial words are very long, and then they become scrappy and lively.
Although we are ordinary and ignorant, we will strive for self-improvement, support ourselves and our families with diligent hands, ask the moon god to bless us from catastrophes and disasters, and bless everyone with peace and security.
At this point, the sacrificial words are over.
I have to say that not everyone can be the head of Moon Shadow Village, first of all, you have to be able to memorize this large list of sacrificial words.
Speaking of this village chief, he was also very proud, but the old village chief looked at him differently when he saw that he was memorizing the sacrificial words well, so that he later focused on training.
Next up is the main event – the sacrificial dance.
Moon Mingzhu had already been waiting under the high platform, and under the gaze of everyone, she slowly climbed the stairs.
The skirt is flying, but Yuemingzhu walks very steadily, without the slightest intention of tripping because of the length of the skirt, and even because of the use of a little light work, the whole person looks light and beautiful.
Everyone couldn't take their eyes off it, and they felt that their eyes were not enough.
At this moment, a melodious flute sounded, and the villagers followed the voice.
