Chapter 46: Breakthrough
Chen Mo picked up two pieces of fat and plump braised pork and sandwiched them into the steamed buns that had just come out of the pot and were still steaming.
The juice of the braised pork soaked into the steamed buns, which made people swallow just by looking at it, and Chen Mo ate it clean in just three or two bites.
"Let's eat something simple at noon, I bought two elbows, and I'll stew them for you later."
Zhao Yu smiled and brought a large bowl of stewed lamb chops, as well as a small plate of raw garlic moss mixed with sesame oil and salt.
Chen Mo nodded, and first took a bite of garlic moss, which was fresh and refreshing, and released a little spicy taste of garlic in his mouth, which was the most greasy.
"Stop being busy, let's eat together." Swallowing the food in his mouth, Chen Mo beckoned.
"There's still soup in the pot, I'll have to look at it." Zhao Yu didn't sit down, turned around and walked back to the kitchen.
After a while, a crockpot was brought in, and in it was a bowl of milky white chicken soup, and there was a layer of yellow chicken fat floating on the soup, and at a glance it was known that this chicken was an old hen.
"There happened to be someone selling old hens on the street tonight, so I bought one, and this soup is fresh." Zhao Yu looked proud, obviously very confident in his craft.
She first used chopsticks to tear apart the rotten old hen that had been thoroughly stewed, and then brought a porcelain bowl and a wooden spoon to serve two bowls of soup each.
"Here, you eat more." She handed Chen Mo a bowl of chicken soup with more meat than soup.
"You eat too." He took it with a smile and tasted it carefully, the chicken soup was mellow and delicious.
Chen Mo loosened his belt and feasted, first eating a large bowl of braised pork and then sixteen steamed buns.
Nibbled on a small pot of lamb chops, and finally drank a few bowls of chicken soup, and after eating this meal, he only felt his throat be oily.
The wisps of qi and blood power in the dantian were constantly transformed, pouring into the Mortal Pearl.
After eating, Zhao Yu made a pot of tea and sprinkled some sugar, the tea and white sugar were all just bought, it seems that she is reluctant to use these on weekdays.
"I've made a lot of money doing business during this time, and this is a dividend for you." Zhao Yu took out the silver money that had been prepared from his arms.
She didn't forget that when she was doing business, Chen Mo's money was not lent to herself, but counted as a shareholding.
What's more, if there was no Chen Mo, her business might not be so good.
"So much." Chen Mo was a little surprised, most of the small bags of money that Zhao Yu took out were copper plates, but there were still a few pieces of scattered silver taels, which probably added up to more than one or two.
You must know how long she has been in business, and now it has been less than two months, and she has made two clothes for herself during this time, even if the clothes are made by her own hands, but it costs four dollars of silver to buy fabrics alone.
The meals that I came to eat twice later, just calculated the cost, and had to cost three or four dollars of silver.
In such a situation, there can still be so many dividends, so looking at this time, Zhao Yu has earned at least three taels of silver, which can be said to be quite rich.
"Well, take care of a brother in a military camp with you, and often come to my stall to eat, and for your sake, no one in the town dares to provoke me."
Zhao Yu smiled slightly, what she said was right.
Many soldiers in the barracks knew that Chen Mo's daughter-in-law had opened a small food stall in the town, so as long as they ate, they were willing to take care of the business.
Zhao Yu will also give them some extra side dishes, or put more oil when stir-frying.
But this is not the main thing, most of the soldiers in the camp go out of the camp and rarely go to eat, and the tavern casino is the most popular place.
The most important reason is that she is the wife of Chen Mo, and Chen Mo is the adopted son of General Sun.
has this relationship, whether it is the head catcher in the town, or the idler splashing skin, who dares to come to her to fight the autumn wind.
Others have to spend money up and down to do business steadily, and most of the hard work to earn a silver or two will be stripped away layer by layer.
And she can keep in her own hands if she earns as much as she earns, and no one dares to attack her idea.
It is precisely because of this, as an outsider, that she can set up a stall in the town, otherwise an outsider wants to do business here without a relationship, and I am afraid that the stall will be lifted on the first day.
"Let's take this money first, and when I come back for dinner later, it will still cost money." Chen Mo smiled.
The feeling of having a home is indeed different from before, he used to come to town in a hurry to eat, and then left after eating.
Now there are places where you can pause and rest, and Zhao Yu can also help herself with laundry, saving herself from wasting time.
Not to mention that as her business grows, she doesn't even have to spend money to eat.
In this way, you can accumulate qi and blood faster, and the extra money can be used to buy decoction.
When Chen Mo returned to the town this time, he also planned to find a crude medicine shop and buy some decoctions to replenish qi and blood to speed up the accumulation of qi and blood.
He still has some money now, and after killing the Taoist in Tsing Yi, Chen Mo got a lot of silver, plus the silver given by his father-in-law when he ransomed Zhao Yu before.
He now has nearly fifty taels of silver on hand, which is not a small amount, it is enough to drink the health decoction for a period of time.
"Okay, then I'll take it first." Zhao Yu didn't shirk this, and explained with a smile, "I also made you a new underwear, you can go back and try it." ”
"I'll go back and try again, do you know which crude medicine shop in the town is more reliable, and I need to use some decoction to practice martial arts."
Compared with herself, Zhao Yu has been in the town for a longer time and is more familiar with this place, so it would not be wrong to ask her about this matter.
"Hmm. Then you go to the pharmacy of Liu San and Dr. Liu in the west of the town to get medicine, his family is a land-sitting household in the town, and he will not cheat people. ”
Zhao Yu is very familiar with this, because some medicinal herbs are not only medicinal herbs, but also spices used in stewed meat.
After getting the name of the store, Chen Mo left immediately, chewed the red ginseng slices after a while, and walked out of the pharmacy with a slight pain.
Without him, this medicinal material is too expensive, Chen Mo prepared three pairs of blood-tonifying decoction with He Shou Wu as the main medicine, each of which was one and two silver.
I also bought a whole concocted red ginseng, and this red ginseng alone costs ten taels.
These things can be saved for about a month.
If it is released, it will last for up to ten days.
It can be seen from this that it is not unreasonable to be poor and rich in military affairs.
As the ginseng pieces concocted with brown sugar were swallowed by him, Chen Mo could sense very clearly that the power of qi and blood transformed by red ginseng was constantly pouring into the Immortal Pearl.
At this pace, even if you can't be reborn before the exam, then you can definitely take the exam.
When I went home with the decoction I bought, the three pairs of decoction were handed over to Zhao Yu, and these decoctions were boiled for one or two hours.
Wait for yourself to take a break every time, and then go home and drink this decoction.
As for the red ginseng slices, whether they are eaten directly or soaked in water, they have an effect, and they can be taken to the barracks to eat two slices a day.
Although the effect is not as good as that of decoction, it is better than convenient and cheap.
Stable days always pass very quickly, and as soon as half a month passes, Chen Mo's greedy wolf seven killing fists naturally usher in a breakthrough.
After another three or five days passed after the breakthrough of the boxing method, Chen Mo went to his father-in-law, preparing to ask his old man for a copy of the internal qi cultivation method.
His dantian internal qi has accumulated a lot of money now, but because he has never had an internal qi cultivation method, he can only watch the internal qi in his dantian.
Only when he had a true internal qi practice to refer to and explain in detail could he begin to experiment with these powers.
