Chapter 76 Side dishes in winter are really profitable
Getting up early, Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu first went to the wholesale market and bought a large bag of Chinese cabbage and a large bag of chrysanthemum. They took it back here, opened it, tied it into bundles with straw, and put them in a big basket.<
/p>
When the handlebar car arrived, I loaded two large baskets of side dishes onto the car. To prevent the side dishes from freezing on the road, they were also wrapped in a thick layer of straw mats.
Fortunately, the cold has not yet arrived in early November of the lunar calendar. When we arrived in Qingping County, except for a few leaves on the outer layer that were frostbitten, the insides of the side dishes were still fine. Lin Xiaoman thought that he would have to buy two quilts to surround the outside.
.
Lin Daqiang was greeting customers in the store when he saw Lin Xiaoman coming over and helping to carry the basket, "Xiaoman, what's in the basket?"
Lin Xiaoman smiled, "I'll add some food to the store."
When he took off the straw mat on the basket and saw two baskets full of emerald green side dishes, not only Lin Daqiang was shocked, but the diners were also shocked.
It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten such beautiful side dishes. It’s so tempting to look at it.
As you can imagine, side dishes like this won’t be cheap in this season, and may be more expensive than meat.
Lin Daqiang asked: "Xiao Man, how do you sell this dish?"
Lin Xiaoman picked up a bunch of side dishes with thick wrists and said: "Fifty yuan per bunch."
Some people think it's expensive, but others are relieved. You can eat green leafy vegetables for fifty cents in the winter. I think it's worth it, but it's not that worth it. It's expensive, but it's not something you can't afford if you try it.
So, I had to pluck this one, and I plucked that one, and the bottom of the basket of cabbage was quickly reduced.
On the contrary, chrysanthemum chrysanthemum, no matter how Lin Xiaoman recommends it, people who have never tasted it are reluctant to try it.
Lin Xiaoman had no choice but to ask someone to wash two bundles and eat them himself. He thought that he would send more cabbages in the future, but he would not give away the chrysanthemums if they could not be sold. A bundle of small vegetables sold for fifty cents, and Lin Xiaoman received three
Ten cash or twenty cash is considered the store's income, and Lin Xiaoman will not share it separately.
Not seeing Lin Erlai, Lin Xiaoman asked Lin Daqiang, "Uncle, where is my uncle Erlai?"
Lin Daqiang sighed as soon as he heard this, "Didn't this mean that we have opened two more stores, and the people who use them are not from our village? The materials used there are more expensive than here, but the money they make is not as much as here. I guess it is
If someone has a wrong idea, let him keep an eye on it to see who has dirty hands and feet."
Lin Xiaoman was a little worried, "Second uncle has trouble with his legs and feet. Will he suffer a loss if he goes alone?"
"It's okay. I asked two people to follow him. If it doesn't work, I'll transfer some people from the two stores here, and then pick a few smart people from the two stores here to take charge."
"This is a good idea. People in your village know the basics, so you can rest assured."
Although people in my own village will inevitably have small thoughts, they all live in the same clan. As long as they don’t want to be kicked out of the clan, they will not go too far if they have small thoughts.
Besides, there is a certain number of ingredients and dishes, and the difference is not too big. It is easy to find out if you want to play tricks.
After the Chinese cabbage was sold out, those who had not bought it bought a bunch of chrysanthemum vegetables to try, and found that they were tender and delicious, so a basket of chrysanthemum vegetables was sold out by the evening.
In the next few days, Lin Xiaoman would buy two baskets of Chinese cabbage and one basket of chrysanthemum vegetables for Uncle Shi to take to the city.
Someone in the village knew that Lin Xiaoman's side dishes were selling well, and they also got some cabbage seeds to plant at home. After Lin Xiaoman found out, not only did she not object, but her side dishes were not planted in the houses of the residents. Those people planted them directly in the houses of the residents.
In my room, I smell the fragrance of dung all day long, and I don’t know if my nose will malfunction after a long time.
Seeing the rich ingredients in the hot pot over there, Lin Xiaoman was anxious to plant sweet potatoes and potatoes next year. Not only would there be high-yield food to eat, but he would also have a reason to produce sweet potato vermicelli and potato vermicelli.
.
Afraid of heavy snow and road closures, Lin Xiaoman directly asked Lin Daqiang to get a few large vats of hot pot ingredients. The amount of hot pot ingredients was not reduced until the hot pot ingredients were enough to last until the Chinese New Year.
After Lin Daqiang and Lin Erlai sorted out the accounts of the past few months, they sent Lin Xiaoman's share home first, leaving enough for the daily turnover of several shops, and then set aside a spare amount for the clan, leaving the remaining money.
They were all strung together into fifty coins, and distributed according to the number of people in each household in the village.
Fifty Wen doesn't seem like much, but some people have more than a dozen people in their families, and the ones they get are hundreds of Wen. For a while, the people in the village are happier than during the Chinese New Year.
Originally, there was a drought and a bad harvest this year, and every family was worried about how they would survive the coming year. With this money, and the income from making kang boards and making kang boards, they will be able to have a good year in the coming year.
Some people take advantage of the good weather and go to the city early to buy New Year goods, but most people are afraid that next year will not be good, so they are still willing to save their money.
After entering the twelfth lunar month, there were two consecutive heavy snowfalls. The road out of the village was blocked. Lin Daqiang was sealed in the county. The snow removal and road clearing in the village were all arranged by Lin Youwang.
Originally, the old man was old and in poor health, otherwise he would not have given up the position of clan leader to Lin Daqiang so early. But after being busy for the past few months, he was cheerful all day long, ate better than before, and was more energetic than before.
Many.
The east side of the village was well arranged by him, and the west side of the village was managed by officials, which was actually more orderly than the west side of the village. When the snow was not being removed, the villagers stayed at home on the kangs and did not want to go out.
Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu, siblings, apart from watering the side dishes every day, spend most of their time there selling hazelnuts and mountain products.
It's cold and the stall can't be set up, but they have added a lot of friends, and the brothers and sisters can deliver goods to your door whenever needed.
Aunt Qi's farmhouse also bought a lot of goods from them, and they often visited Aunt Qi's place. Lin Xiaoman learned cooking skills from the master chef.
Knowing that she was the adopted daughter of the proprietress, the master taught her seriously, and Lin Xiaoman also studied seriously. In one month, her cooking skills improved by leaps and bounds. After learning some dishes from the videos, Lin Xiaoman is confident that with her current cooking skills, she can start cooking here.
A restaurant is no longer a problem.
Lin Xiaoman hired a tutor to come to his home in the evening and teach his siblings English, Chinese, and math starting from primary school knowledge. Now they have learned third grade knowledge. He is trying to learn fifth grade knowledge before the spring starts, so that they can still learn it when they have nothing to do.
Self-study.
It was the end of the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye. Lin Xiaoman bought a big fat pig in the village, asked someone to kill it and keep it for the New Year, and gave half of the pig to Aunt Qi.
Aunt Qi was surprised after eating it, "Xiao Man, where did you buy this pig? It tastes better than the stupid pigs we raise in our villa."
Lin Xiaoman knew that the stupid pigs raised by Aunt Qi's villa mostly eat vegetables and grains, but they also often feed them some ripening feed in order to be released a few months earlier. Naturally, the taste is not as good as that after raising it for more than half a year.
, even pigs that have been eating only wild vegetables and bran for more than a year.
But she couldn't say it. She rolled her eyes. People here raise pigs and feed them some feed in order to make the pigs grow up faster. Can she buy the piglets here and raise them over there to grow up and then send them over to sell?
