Author: Next door Lao Huang 007
Song Chuyun came to make trouble. The male protagonist wanted to save people, but the female protagonist solved it herself and mocked the male protagonist.
In the previous life, Ai Tuan was a snack eaten in both the north and the south. It was mainly popular around the Qingming Festival. Firstly, Ai Tuan could be preserved after being prepared to meet the custom of eating cold food during the Qingming Festival. On the other hand, it was because of the You can pick moxa balls to make moxa balls around the Qingming Festival. But in fact, sage grass can grow until October or even November in northwest my country. During this period, it can be used to make moxa balls.
Ai Tuan is popular in both the north and the south, but different fillings are incorporated in different places, which fully reflects the local culture, soil and food habits.
Because the diet in the north is usually salty, dim sum fillings are usually sweet. Ai Tuan has sesame peanut filling, bean paste filling, candied date filling, etc.
The food in the South usually tends to be sweet, so dim sum fillings are often salty or salty-sweet. For example, salted egg yolk meat floss filling, various meat fillings, etc.
Songjiazhuang belongs to Kangpin County, which is located in the northwest of Daliang. Yiren deliberately chose sweet fillings that people in northern my country would like in her previous life as the first step to test the waters.
"How is it?" This is not the first time Yiren has made Ai Tuan. She was a food blogger before writing the book, and she had done it when she was filming videos. However, in modern times, the materials are all available, and once you buy the ingredients online, the taste is very different. However,
In this era, she had to discover and make all the raw materials by herself, and she was still worried about the taste. So she looked at Aunt Li nervously.
Aunt Li was burned until her eyes filled with tears. After a long while, she said: "It's delicious, it's delicious. It's better than the town... no, it's better than the expensive snacks sold by the snack shops in the county!"
Yi Ren smiled reassuringly: "Auntie, I want to make this Ai Tuan and sell it in the town and county. What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Aunt Li changed her smile from just now, became a little worried, and asked: Yiren, there are many dim sum shops in the town and county, with high, high, and low-price dim sum, and people are used to it.
Is this... called Ai Tuan?
Seeing the lady nodding, Aunt Li continued: "I just saw that your moxa dumpling contains rice flour and glutinous rice flour, as well as sugar, sesame seeds, lard, etc. The cost is high, so you have to sell it at a higher price.
Can you outsell them?"
"Mom, Yinyin wants to eat too!" Before Yiren could answer Aunt Li, Xiaotuanzi stood up from the threshold, regardless of the heat, and ran towards Xiangxiang on his short legs. "What is this?"
Yiren broke off a small piece and blew it to cool down before feeding it to Xiaotuanzi.
"Auntie, you just tasted the taste, what do you think?" Yiren picked up two more moxa balls, put one in Auntie Li's hand, and prepared to try the other herself.
"That's good! It's so good! It's so delicious that I'll bite off my tongue!" Aunt Li smiled and ate the moxa ball in her hand in two or two mouthfuls.
"How to sell dim sum in the county?" Yiren wanted to set a price for Aituan. In addition to the cost, she also had to refer to the prices of other dim sum on the market. But she had never eaten dim sum in the city since she came here, and the original owner even said
Needless to say, she was so poor that she couldn't even eat. How could she have money to eat snacks? So she thought about asking Aunt Li.
Aunt Li thought for a while and replied: "Last year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, my family bought some snacks. They were about the same size as your moxa dumplings, but they were flat and cost about three copper coins each. Rice flour was used to eat them.
It’s made, but it’s very well done. The snacks in the county are larger in size and taste more oily. I think they contain lard, but they’re expensive! They cost five or six copper coins each!”
"Auntie, I'm going to price this moxa dumpling at ten copper coins each!" Yiren saw Aunt Li's mouth wide open in shock, and explained briefly: "This moxa dumpling is a unique thing, no one can make it except me, and every year
It can only be made from March to August, and you can’t eat it at other times if you want.”
"Isn't this too expensive?" Aunt Li was shocked, ten coppers! A strong laborer can earn thirty or forty coppers a day, which is not bad! "Yiren, this little thing, ten coppers, really
Will anyone buy it?"
"I'll buy it! It's so delicious, of course I'll buy it!" Xiaotuanzi, who had finished half of the Ai dumpling, held up a small piece in his hand and jumped on his feet.
Yi Ren touched Xiaotuanzi's head and said to Aunt Li: "Let's try selling it first. In order to prevent Ai Tuanzi from selling, we will do some trial sales first, and then pay a deposit to make a reservation! This way we won't worry about the backlog.
That’s a problem. I don’t believe that something unique in the world will not sell well!”
When Yiren said this, her eyebrows were dancing, as if Song Yiren, who used to be timid and weak, had been transformed into a confident and arrogant person, as if she had also been infected by Aunt Li.
After confirming that the quality of the Ai Tuan was good, the price was initially determined, and the two children, San Mao and Si Mao, also came over.
"Sister Yiren!" During this time, the two boys have become familiar with Yiren, and they also understand Yiren's character. She is not a harsh person, and her personality has become lively.
"It smells so good, sister Yiren!" Si Mao, who is young, still doesn't understand the ways of the world. After hearing what his brother said, San Mao quickly pushed his brother and stopped him from saying anything else.
The two brothers work at Sister Yiren's place and can earn four or five copper coins a day, and they are given even more coins when roasting seeds and nuts. Sister Yiren also gives them food to eat, which is already good. You must know that the two boys at home also
Just drink some wild vegetable paste, that's not enough, just half a bowl for each person. But here in Yiren, they can drink brown rice porridge and fragrant egg pancakes. How can they ask for something that smells so delicious again?
?
Yiren picked up two moxa balls, handed them to the two boys, and said concisely: "Eat!"
Si Mao reached out to take it, but San Mao slapped his hand. San Mao glared at Si Mao fiercely, and Si Mao lowered his head, not daring to reach out and take it.
Yiren sighed in her heart, Qiu Shi really taught her younger brothers extremely well! She took Sanmao's hand and forced the moxa ball into his hand. "You two will tell me if it tastes good after you eat it. It's for me to try."
The food is not given for free!"
After hearing this, San Mao reached out to take it. Only when Si Mao saw that his third brother had taken it, did he dare to take it.
When the two children took a bite, the sesame and peanut filling inside came out and it was very fragrant.
"Don't just eat it, tell me, is it delicious?" Aunt Li felt distressed. These two boys had devoured the twenty copper coins. She laughed and scolded the two boys.
The two brothers didn't bother to reply, they ate hungrily and could only nod fiercely.
Yiren couldn't help but feel pity in her heart: Si Mao was only seven years old, and San Mao was only thirteen or fourteen years old. They were still very young children in modern times. Here they had not read any books, but they had to contribute a lot of labor to the family!
"Don't be in a hurry, eat slowly, wait until you're done eating!" Yiren touched Si Mao's head. San Mao was so big that she accidentally discovered that it would be embarrassing for her to touch her head.
"You just spoil them!" Aunt Li said and stood up. "I'll go home and pick up the two monkeys at home, and then take them up the mountain to collect goods!"
"Auntie! Take some back to feed your sister-in-law and children!" Yiren took the basket selling cakes, put a few moxa balls on them, and handed them to Aunt Li.
Aunt Li waved her hands repeatedly: "This one costs ten coppers, how expensive it is! Don't let your children waste it!"
San Mao and Si Mao were stunned for a moment when they heard that the green dumplings in their mouths were actually worth ten copper coins, whether they ate them or not.
"Hi! Auntie, that's the selling price. It's just a taste of our own stuff! Let the children and sister-in-law give you some suggestions." Yiren pointed at San Mao and Si Mao: "You two eat quickly, Auntie, don't do it either.
Scaring the kids!”
