Before Ning Laosan even got close to his wife, he couldn't help but want to tell her how popular it was to sell cakes in town this time.
However, as soon as the words came out of his mouth, Ning Pengpeng coughed hard and choked them back.
Ning Laosan could only wink at Wang, who was looking at her with a look of disbelief, and said that the two of them could have a good talk after they returned to the house.
Ning Pengpeng didn't want to watch the lawsuit between the couple, so she sat down on the long stool in the middle of the living room, poured a large glass of boiled water, and drank a full glass, only then did she feel that she was alive.
coming!
No, she can't do the work of running to the market every day.
Don’t make too much money by then and risk your life!
Anyway, the third child went with me to sell pastries this time. Let him take the fourth child with him tomorrow to supervise each other, so there should be no problem.
However, yesterday I used more than half a pound of brown sugar to make about a hundred pieces of cakes.
Even if I make all the two pounds of brown sugar today, I estimate that I can only make about 400 pieces.
Calculated based on three yuan and ten cents, you can probably earn about 1,300 cents. After deducting the cost of peas, red beans, mung beans, glutinous rice and brown sugar, as well as the wages for those who sell pastries and make pastries at home, the net profit is
It is estimated to be more than 900 texts.
In fact, the most expensive thing about a carriage is the horse. After all, the horse has to be transported thousands of miles away from the north. Dahuaishu Village belongs to the south. If you buy a horse, you will have to spend at least dozens of taels.
Coupled with the frame, it's another sum of money.
In fact, it is better to buy a horse-drawn carriage than an ox-cart.
After all, cattle can still go to work in the fields.
Of course, in Ning Pengpeng's eyes, this cow has other uses.
However, a calf costs at least a dozen taels of silver.
If she really wanted to do that, cows would definitely be indispensable.
Therefore, these days, she has to try to earn the money to buy cattle as soon as possible.
With a "pop" sound, Ning Pengpeng put the hollow cup on the table, and then said to Ning Laosan and Wang.
"Go, wake up Xiaosi, and then take out all the beans at home. Since the families have been separated, I won't take yours for nothing. I will give you eight cents for each item."
When she first heard Ning Pengpeng's words, Mrs. Wang couldn't help but glance at Ning Laosan. They had just separated their families. Why did they take the food they had just received?
When Wang heard the next sentence, his face immediately lit up, but he did not forget to reply politely.
"Mom, there are so many heretics. If you want this, a daughter-in-law should be filial."
Ning Pengpeng glanced at her and said angrily.
"Don't give me nonsense, if you say that again, I will take it seriously!"
Hearing what her mother-in-law said, Mrs. Wang didn't dare to say anything. She quickly let out a sigh, quickly returned to the house, and took out all the beans she had just divided up the day before yesterday.
When Qian saw it, she was immediately eager to give it a try, but yesterday she said she would not participate in the pastry business, and now she is selling beans for money. I wonder if her mother-in-law will scold her?
"Ms. Qian, the same goes for your house. If you have any beans you are willing to sell, just take them out and I will charge the same price as the third son and others."
Ning Pengpeng glanced at her, then looked at the row of carrot heads at the door of the second room, and said angrily.
"Hey, okay, Mom, thank you, Mom."
When Mrs. Qian heard her mother-in-law's words, she felt as if she had been forgiven. She nodded her head repeatedly, barely even kneeling down to kowtow.
The grains stored at home were not much, and the total amount was only about 100 kilograms. After being divided into six parts, the family only had less than 20 kilograms.
Yesterday, I used up almost ten kilograms of my portion.
Now if we make it again, if we add the beans from the second, third, fourth, and third families, plus the youngest daughter’s portion, it will be about ninety kilograms, which is enough for two days at most.
Therefore, Ning Pengpeng asked Ning Laosan to go to the village to collect beans, peanuts, and eggs first, and he took Xiaosi and Wang to soak the beans and glutinous rice first.
As for the peanuts, wait until she gets the sugar first and then make them delicious.
Anyway, I’m going to do it later, so I’ll collect some and save them later.
It would be even better if we could take the opportunity to squeeze out peanut oil.
However, this meal must be eaten one bite at a time. The small goal now is to buy a bullock cart first.
The same goes for sugar cane. Ning Pengpeng feels that the reason why people in the village don't know how to make brown sugar is that as a modern person, she takes it for granted that everyone knows the recipes for making sugar.
.
In fact, in ancient times, no matter what kind of recipe it was, it was a secret recipe that was not passed down by a certain family.
Therefore, it is normal for Ning Laosan not to know how to make brown sugar.
Likewise, this also reminded Ning Pengpeng.
Although she has mastered knowledge that people today cannot know, this knowledge cannot be exposed all at once.
Today, the Ning family is just a farmer in the village!
If she carelessly uses various modern prescriptions, what awaits her may not be the gold and silver treasures, but jackals, tigers and leopards.
After all, whoever sees a child holding a big gold brick and strolling openly on the street will not harbor evil intentions?
So, set a small goal first and take your time.
Ning Laosan went out and actually received one hundred catties each of peas, red beans and mung beans at the price of five cents per catty.
The peanut kernels collected directly from peanuts cost fifty kilograms at seven cents per kilogram.
After all, most of them are planted in a ridge on the small plot of land in front of the house, fried during the Chinese New Year, and given to the children as snacks.
As for glutinous rice, not many people grow it, because it can be made into rice dumplings and is a grain like rice, so the price is much more expensive. Even if it is thirteen cents per catty, you only get eighty catties.
In this way, more than two taels of silver were directly spent.
As for the eggs that cost one penny for two, I bought a basket of them, about sixty of them, but it only cost thirty penny.
Compared to that two taels of silver, it pales into insignificance.
Wang and Qian didn't expect that their mother-in-law would accept so much glutinous rice at such an expensive price without blinking an eye. They immediately thought of the few kilograms of glutinous rice they had received and regretted not taking it out before.
As if aware of their inner thoughts, Ning Pengpeng asked Xiao Si to put the prepared pea yellow into the well.
"If there is not enough glutinous rice in the future, if you are willing, we can charge the same price."
After saying that, he motioned to the third child to move all the miscellaneous grains into his house.
"Okay, mother."
Mrs. Wang responded vigorously and vigorously, as if she had been beaten to death.
"By the way, Mrs. Wang, from now on Xiaosi and I will have meals for Youxi, so you can cook them! Don't worry, I won't let your work go in vain."
After locking up the food, Ning Pengpeng thought for a moment. She was already tired from making these pastries every day. She would not be happy if she had to cook and serve her cheap son and daughter.
Thinking of the stir-fried leeks with eggs made by Wang's before, although there was not much oil and water, it tasted good, so he spoke to her directly.
