"Girl Yun, you are too modest. The little fairy is not as good as you!" Mrs. Ma was the first to join in. Seeing everyone laughing, she pretended to be angry and said, "Why, do you think what I said is wrong?"
"Yes, yes, my sister-in-law is a little fairy!" Xu Dashu was the first to respond, making everyone laugh again!
Yun Xi took out a handkerchief from his sleeve. Yes, that's right, it was the handkerchief used to turn fruit candies before. Now it contains bean sprouts, half soybean sprouts and half mung bean sprouts! "This is the business we want to do.
!”
Liu Sanye picked one up, looked at it, smelled it, and asked doubtfully: "Are these bean sprouts?"
Others also stepped forward to take one. Some of them had seen this thing before, but the rhizome was not so long!
"It's bean sprouts, one kind is soybean sprouts and the other is mung bean sprouts!" Liu Xingzhi explained: "Yunxi found a small cup to distribute these on the day we first arrived. Today we went to talk to Hu Ji Restaurant and the other party was willing.
Charge it for fifteen cents per pound!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked. This thing is made from beans. Beans only cost a pound, but it is twice as expensive to turn into bean sprouts. Even if a pound of beans can only make one pound of bean sprouts, it is still half the profit!
Yunxi waited for them to finish their discussion and explained: "You usually rarely see bean sprouts in winter, and you rarely see such long bean sprouts, right! What I want to tell you is that as long as these bean sprouts are taken care of well,
, one pound of beans can produce twelve pounds of bean sprouts, one pound of bean sprouts costs fifteen cents, and twelve catties is one hundred and eighty cents. After removing the cost, you should be able to earn one hundred and seventy cents!
The shopkeeper will order forty kilograms first. If the sales are good, he will sell them to six stores in the capital together, and we can earn one or two pieces of silver a day! Although the income is not much, it is quite hard, but with these, how much can we do?
Save some!”
Everyone looked at Yun Xi, blinked, and blinked again. Did they hear it correctly? There is one tael of silver a day, which is not much? Could it be that they heard it wrong. In fact, it is not one tael, but one penny.
?
Seeing them like this, Yunxi thought they were too few, and said sheepishly: "Of course, this is just one of them. Before the Spring Festival, we will sell braised pork and fermented bean curd for a period of time, and we also need to prepare some greenhouse vegetables. There are so many additions."
Get up, the income should still be good!"
Liu Sanye opened his mouth, and then found his voice after a while and said: "Since the third grandson's wife has proposed this business, let's see if we can do it?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment. If you have money, you don’t want to make money. Are these people drifting? Of course they make money. If you make more money, you will have the opportunity to renovate your brick house next year!
"Do it! I'll do it!" Liu Yi nodded quickly, "I can make tofu, I can help with this!"
"I can grow vegetables. My third nephew-in-law, I can be responsible for the greenhouse vegetables!" Liu Erbo said.
"I've done it once before. Why don't you leave the bean sprouts to me?" Mrs. Liu hurriedly raised her hand. She would support her daughter-in-law's ideas no matter what!
"Then let's do the braised pork!" Xu Dashu and others said in unison.
"No, Brother Liu Guo and Er Bo are responsible for the braised pork. You guys follow me!" Liu Xingzhi suddenly spoke up. Seeing everyone looking at him, he explained: "On the one hand, we have to help my wife's senior brother sell cotton.
, we also need to collect some soybeans and the like. We need soybeans to grind tofu and make bean sprouts. What we have in hand cannot last long! In addition, we can go up the mountain to hunt some braised pork, but that is too slow.
In cold places, once it snows, we may not be able to hunt. If the braised pork business is good, we may have to collect some pigs! In addition, we have limited radish and cabbage, so we need to collect some and make some pickles for the winter. Listen
It’s said that it won’t start to warm up here until at least March, so it’s better to prepare early while it’s not snowing!”
When everyone heard this, it made sense. They didn’t have a vegetable plot, so they had to buy it. The colder the weather, the harder it was to get these things, and the prices were correspondingly higher!
"Okay, let's get moving. In addition to the time to prepare things, others have to continue fencing and other things. After the snow, there is less food on the mountain, and wild beasts are likely to come down to look for food. We have to be careful!
"
Yun Xi thought about it and said, "Then we have to buy a bullock cart. We can't just lean on our backs after collecting the things!"
Liu Xingzhi took out the eighty-two-seven dollars from selling the furs, handed it to Liu Sanye, shook his head and said, "I thought we would push it by manpower first, and then buy a bullock cart after making money. Here.
Before, we had better save a little!" After all, if you are not familiar with the place and don't have money, you will easily panic! And they can't be too ostentatious, as they can easily arouse people's jealousy!
Yun Xi winked at him and indicated to her that she had money here, and if she had an ox cart, it would be much easier to haul things. At worst, she could just pay her back when she makes money later, so why suffer this!
Liu Xingzhi shook his head slightly. Seeing him like this, Yun Xi sneered in his heart, this is a typical example of saving face and suffering. That's all, if he wants to run away, then he can run away, it's not her who suffers anyway!
After everyone discussed the details, Yun Xi began to teach Mrs. Liu how to scald the skin of beans with hot water. The skin of mung beans is hard and needs a higher temperature, while the skin of soybeans is softer and the temperature can be lower. Soak them in this water temperature first.
Overnight, when the skin of the beans cracks, you can take them out and place them on a sieve.
During the day, Old Man Liu made several sieves, which were just in use. He spread the beans into a thin layer and then covered them with a thin quilt. Yunxi took out some of the ones used by children from the supermarket in advance.
The small quilt is not only clean, but also just right to cover.
When growing bean sprouts in winter, one must pay attention to the water temperature, and the other is the frequency of watering the quilt. Yun Xi handed over the key points to her, and the rest was to prepare the slate. Only by pressing it with heavy objects can the bean sprouts grow.
Stronger.
As long as the temperature is maintained well, it can be sold after four days. However, because they have to sell it every day, they need to soak some every day, which is not an easy task.
Mrs. Liu asked Mrs. Li's mother-in-law and Xu Jun's wife to help. They all took turns staying up late to water the water, otherwise it would be difficult for one person to bear it.
As for greenhouse vegetables, it is much easier. First of all, spinach and other vegetables are cold-resistant. You only need to build some wooden shelves and put them in the room, and plant the vegetables on the shelves. However, because the room is limited, the shelves must be built with at least three layers.
Make sure you plant enough.
Tofu curd can only be made after the tofu is made. Before making it, Yun Xi first gave Liu Yi the method of making dried tofu.
To say why she did this, she had to thank a classmate in a certain dormitory who had strange hobbies. Not only did she have a plant planting encyclopedia, but she also had several books such as "An Encyclopedia of Food Methods". These books not only teach cooking, but also
