glutinous rice
"Sister, do you want to try the nutritious and healthy ?" Yao Yi saw Zhang Yue curiously looking at the things on the stall, so she asked.
"What is this! How can it be purple rice?" Zhang Yue saw Yao Yi asking himself, so he stepped forward and curiously pointed to a sample prepared on the table and asked.
"This is called . It is made of and black rice, brushed with sauce, and wrapped with fried dough sticks and other things. It is nutritious, delicious and easy to carry!" Yao Yi introduced.
"Really? Then make me one!" Zhang Yue was already curious about this , but when he saw what Yao Yi said was so exciting, he became even more excited.
"Sister, what do you want to add? There are fried dough sticks and fried eggs."
"What's the difference?"
"The fried dough sticks are 25 cents each, and if you add a fried egg, it's 30 cents each!"
"Then make me a Sanmao!" Zhang Yue felt that since he wanted to eat, he didn't mind spending an extra five cents, so he said boldly.
"Oh, okay, sister, do you want something sweet, salty or spicy?"
"It's salty, make it spicy!"
After confirming Zhang Yue's taste, Yao Yi dried the gauze that had been soaked in water and spread it on the wooden board. He quickly scooped out about two taels of rice in the wooden bucket with a wooden shovel and spread it flat on the wooden barrel.
Brush a layer of soybean paste with peanuts on the gauze, sprinkle some fried diced pickled cabbage on top of the fried eggs and fried dough sticks, roll up the rice ball from the edge and tighten it tightly.
"Okay, sister, please take it!" Yao Yi smiled broadly and handed the packed to Zhang Yue, who had been staring.
Maybe it's because of the new stall, or maybe it's because of the new things, or maybe it's because Yao Yi didn't dare to cook more on the first day he opened the stall. Anyway, before half past eight o'clock, all the half buckets of rice prepared by Yao Yi were bought.
Yao Yi packed up the things in the stall, and then moved everything with Yao Feng to the stall of Yao Jianguo and his wife with some difficulty.
"Is this sold out?" Yao Jianguo felt a lightness in his hand as soon as he took the barrel, and he asked in surprise.
"Well, the few we made today are all sold out!"
"Dad, when we sold out, there were still a few uncles and aunts who didn't buy anything, and... they asked us to make more tomorrow!" Yao Feng reported proudly because he helped pack the bags.
"How is business going?" Li Mei asked curiously after seeing off the customers.
"Well, I didn't expect how good it would be!" Yao Yifu replied.
"How much did you earn?" Li Mei was curious.
"A total of one hundred and thirty-two dishes were made. Twenty-three of them with fried eggs cost six yuan and ninety cents, and the remaining one hundred and nine were twenty-seven yuan and twenty-five cents. After deducting the cost, I bought
Mi is...all today's net profit is twenty-one fifty-four cents." Yao Yi announced after taking out his notebook to write and draw.
"So much? Isn't this more than what we earn from selling vegetables?" Li Mei silently calculated her income this morning.
"It's higher than our income this morning!" Yao Jianguo echoed.
"Actually, I think I can let my father look after the stall alone, and my mother and I sell breakfast together!" Yao Yi has observed that since it is now 1987, many people think that the factory is stable, so those who do breakfast business are not special.
There were many, and there were few varieties. She didn’t think back to the era she lived in, when there were seven or eight varieties of sesame seed cakes for breakfast, so she felt that selling breakfast was more profitable than selling vegetables.
"Here, if we also sell , the market is only such a big place..." Yao Jianguo hesitated.
"It doesn't have to be near the market. It would be nice to have a light bulb factory, a cloth factory or a steel factory that are some distance away from the market." Yao Yi expressed his thoughts.
"The flow of people there is okay, but there are already several restaurants buying breakfast!" Yao Jianguo said worriedly.
"Then let's just do what others don't have, right?" Yao Yi said nonchalantly.
"But I don't know how to make breakfast!" Li Mei said quickly when she saw that the two of them had already made plans.
"Mom is so stupid, she doesn't know how to learn!" Yao Feng saw that the adults were discussing in a lively manner, and the others interrupted.
"Haha... Xiaofeng is right, we can learn if we don't know how. We didn't know how when we set up a stall, but we know much more now than we did then, right?" Yao Jianguo laughed.
"Okay, let's observe for a few days to see how the early business goes!" Li Mei also nodded.
Early the next morning, Yao Yi and his brother came to the place where they were yesterday. After setting up the stall, Zhang Yue, who had bought yesterday, trotted over.
"Oh, little boss, you're here, make me ten fried eggs, three salty ones, five spicy ones and two sweet ones!" Zhang Yue took a breath and said his request in one breath.
came out.
"Okay sister, are you bringing this for your family?" Yao Yi asked curiously after hearing this big order.
"Five are from my family and four are for my colleagues. You don't know yesterday...so they gave me full authority to buy them today!" Zhang Yue, a talkative person, told Yao what happened after returning yesterday with a smile.
Yi told it once.
"Then thank you sister for the recommendation, so I can add an extra fried egg to the sister's alone!" Yao Yi said in return.
"Really? Then thank you, little boss!" Zhang Yue actually didn't care about the fried egg, but Yao Yi's attitude really helped her, and she said without being pretentious.
"Sister, go slowly!" Yao Yi handed the packaged to Zhang Yue with quick hands and feet.
Maybe Zhang Yue had a good start today, or maybe it was because of the curiosity of those who didn't buy anything yesterday. At about nine o'clock, Yao Yi still sold more than half of the rice than yesterday.
"I made a net profit of thirty-five yuan and seventy-two cents today!" Yao Yi told him about today's harvest.
"Observe for another week. If the business is still good, go out and sell breakfast!" Yao Jianguo said firmly.
"Okay, that's settled!" Li Mei gritted her teeth and made up her mind.
Although the next few days were not as popular as the next day, the prepared items were basically sold out every day. However, the closing time of the stalls was delayed to varying degrees, but generally every day it was sold out.
I have a net income of about thirty yuan.
"Is this really okay?" Li Mei looked at the coal stove, the pan and the spread dough... and asked worriedly.
"Okay, just do it like you do at home!" Yao Yi said confidently to Li Mei, who had been practicing for three or four days.
"Mom is the best! Come on!" Yao Feng also praised.
"Okay, if it doesn't work, let's just eat it ourselves. Don't put too much pressure on yourself!" Yao Jianguo comforted.
"Okay, then I'm leaving!" Li Mei received encouragement from her family and pushed firmly towards the seat chosen by the family of four.
Although he said he was full of confidence in Li Mei, Yao Yi was still a little worried, so when he steamed rice last night, he deliberately steamed less rice so that before eight o'clock, Yao Yi took Yao Feng with him.
Let's walk together to the light bulb factory where Li Mei sets up a stall.
"Brother Wen, is it really okay for you to be like this? How about we take you back!" Jiang Dong looked worriedly at Han Wen, who was leaning against the wall with his teeth bared and rubbing the purple and blue wound at the corner of his mouth.
"No, you can go back!" Han Wen waved his hand and said nonchalantly.
"But you..." Thinking about the fight just now, when Han Wen tried to save his back and legs and was hit hard with a wooden stick several times by the other party, he couldn't bear to go back alone.
"Let's go, stop whining!" Han Wen raised his feet and endured the throbbing pain in his legs, striding toward the light bulb factory with a strong breath.
"Sister, what is this brother doing?" Yao Feng came to the light bulb factory for the first time. Along the way, he looked around curiously and asked some strange questions. It was inappropriate to see a person sitting on the curb, grinning.
Han Wen was rubbing his legs, and he was aroused to ask Yao Yi next to him curiously.
"You must be tired from walking!" Yao Yi glanced at Han Wen's appearance and knew that this man must have been injured in a fight, but adhering to the principle of doing more than doing less, Yao Yi did not intend to tell the truth.
"Then why don't I feel tired when I walk? This brother is so weak!" Yao Feng nodded and sighed.
"Well, Xiaofeng is very good, very good! How about we hurry up!" Although Yao Yi felt that Han Wen probably didn't hear the two people talking so loudly, she still took Yao Feng and left quickly just to be on the safe side.
Well, Han Wen didn't expect that he just didn't want to go back with injuries all over his body and be questioned by his grandparents. He wanted to sit down and take a rest to pass the time, but he didn't expect to be surrounded by a skinny little girl and a little girl.
The kid was laughed at.
"How is business today, Mom?" Yao Yi asked after seeing off the last customer.
"These factory workers are really rich. They made fifty or sixty egg pancakes this morning!" Li Mei laughed and told her today's results.
"Originally, I came to make one by one, but then some people were anxious to go to work and didn't want to wait, so I took advantage of the lack of business and made some and put them on the side of the pot to heat."
"Mom, you are so smart!" Yao Yi affirmed.
"Mom is awesome!" Yao Feng clapped his hands and praised with a smile.
"Then, if I can give birth to children as smart as you two, can I still be stupid as a mother?"
After dinner, Yao Yi and his family gathered together to count the money they earned today. After deducting costs, they made a total of sixty-eight yuan and forty-three cents. Among them, Li Mei earned at least fifteen yuan on her first day at the stall.
Money, and because Yao Jianguo lost a few customers today at the vegetable stall, he made two or three yuan less than usual, but in total, it was still more than ten yuan more than usual.
"Although it's a bit hard work, the income of nearly 70 yuan a day is something I couldn't even imagine before!" Yao Jianguo counted the money and put it away, and said with emotion.
"Yes, if this happens every day, our family will soon become a household worth ten thousand yuan! Then we will return home in fine clothes!" Li Mei thought of the majestic appearance of the ten thousand yuan household in the next town when she returned to her hometown during the last Chinese New Year.
road.
"Mom and Dad, I'm going to school in more than a month, and my family's income will definitely be reduced by then." Although Yao Yi doesn't want to pour cold water on this momentum, he still has to face the reality.
