Chapter 194 Buy, Buy, Buy Chickens
"Sister, what's delicious?"
Guyu came running over and shouted from a distance.
A three-year-old kid followed behind.
After that, Miaomiao, Goudan, Maowazi, Niudan and other children came over.
She kept calling out "Sister Xiaoman, Sister Xiaoman".
Lin Xiaoman asked a group of kittens to wash their hands and gave each of them a Qingming fruit. "Don't run around after eating. Just play near the yard and don't go to the river. Got it?"
"Sister, I'll watch over Lidong and just play nearby."
Lin Xiaoman expressed his doubt, "Guyu, I think Lidong can sit still longer than you."
Lin Guyu stuck out his tongue, smiled like a mouse stealing oil, and ate the Qingming fruit in small bites.
While eating, he flattered her, "Sister's cooking is delicious."
As soon as these words were spoken, they aroused the envy of Goudan, Maowazi and others.
Guyu's pride suddenly rose up.
She just has an enviable sister!
"What a greedy little cat."
Lin Xiaoman smiled and joked and went in.
At this time, Lin Chunhua had already steamed the second pot of Qingming fruit.
One pot after another, by the time the beggar's chicken was ready, the Qingming rice cake was also steamed.
"Xiao Man, we won't be able to carry so many things later, right?"
Lin Chunhua was worried. Even if she could pick it up, what if the sticky Qingming rice cakes stuck together?
If it doesn’t look good, it won’t be able to sell.
Lin Xiaoman had thought of it a long time ago, and asked his aunt to ask his cousin Zimao yesterday.
"Don't worry, I called for help."
When the two of them had packed their things, Li Zimao arrived by chance.
He put down the backpack, which was full of duck eggs.
Li Da's wife saw Li Zimao sweating all over and praised Li Shan's wife, "Your child is really hardworking. Did he carry him all the way here?"
"Oh, sister-in-law, please don't say that. Our Zimao is just strong, but he is not as promising as your second son. According to the schedule, I have been in Lin'an Prefecture for one or two days, right?"
"I guess so. Alas, a mother worries about her child even when he is far away. My heart is really beating fast. Fortunately, the head of the family went with him, otherwise I would not be able to sleep well."
Lin Xiaoman was forced to listen to the ancient version of Versailles.
She had only one thought: all of these people could go to Lin'an Prefecture, but she could only go back and forth in Dayi Town. How annoying!
With Li Zimao acting as manpower, Lin Xiaoman was as light as a swallow and soon arrived at Ruyi Restaurant.
I happened to run into the young master.
When the two greeted each other, they each saw something in each other's eyes.
Lin Xiaoman thought to himself, it’s stable, it’s stable, the young master is interested in beggar’s chicken.
Can she sell the house again?
Why did they sell the house directly this time instead of trying the cooperative model of sausage and preserved eggs?
Beggar's chicken, no matter how nice it sounds, is not much different from roast chicken.
The sausages are stored for a long time, which gives them time to be prepared, and the seasonings are mixed into the meat, so most people really can't guess what ingredients she used.
The key to making preserved eggs is alkali, which is not difficult to master.
But beggar's chicken is different. An experienced chef can figure out the marinade she made after a few attempts. It would be better to sell it for free and buy a favor from the young master.
Only when there is give and take, the cooperative relationship will be deep!
In order to promote cooperation, Lin Xiaoman directly put a beggar chicken in a basket and went upstairs.
The young master didn't bother to be polite with Lin Xiaoman. He washed his hands and started tearing it apart directly.
He also did not forget to ask Lin Xiaoman and Lin Dajiang to sit down and eat.
He also asked his most proud shopkeeper Tong to sit down and enjoy the meal.
The four of them ate a beggar's chicken, and in the end the young master was still not satisfied and even licked his fingers.
After he finished doing this, he realized it was indecent. He looked around and fortunately everyone was concentrating on eating PUBG and no one noticed his action.
"Hehe, beggar's chicken is indeed delicious." The young master praised it to hide his guilty conscience.
Lin Xiaoman humbly asked for advice, "Young Master, you also think it's good, will it sell well?"
They are doing big business, unlike her who is just doing small business.
She sold ten beggar chickens every day, and Lin Chunhua thought she was very impressive.
For the young master, that amount would just be enough to fill the gaps between his teeth.
If he wants to sell them, he will sell hundreds or thousands of them.
It is not enough to sell the Ruyi Tower in Guangdayi Town, the one in Lin'an Prefecture also needs to be sold.
Last year, the young master made a fortune from Pickled Fish and Ruyi Grilled Fish, and he opened three more Ruyi Restaurants in Lin'an Prefecture.
This time, he took a fancy to the roast chicken again.
After tasting it, it was indeed delicious.
He was not a man who would procrastinate. Since he had decided to do something, he had to do it quickly, accurately and ruthlessly, so he directly offered a sincere price of one hundred taels.
In addition, Lin Xiaoman was asked to supply live chickens to Ruyilou.
Lin Xiaoman nodded in agreement readily.
The young master didn't even blink and directly gave one hundred taels. He was really generous.
At noon, Lin Dajiang and his companions went back to Shanglin Village first, while Lin Xiaoman and Lin Chunhua stayed behind to teach the cook how to make beggar's chicken.
Lin Xiaoman was also thoughtful enough to prepare lotus leaves for the young master.
The young master took a look and said, "It seems that the price of lotus leaves in the lotus pond will increase in June this year."
The person who learned how to make beggar's chicken from Lin Xiaoman this time was an old acquaintance of Lin Xiaoman.
Isn’t it the culmination of what I learned from her about making jelly?
"Master, thanks to the young master, I am going to learn skills from you again." Dacheng said naively.
“It’s all cooperation~”
Lin Xiaoman felt that it was good to have an acquaintance, as it would allow Dacheng to continue his studies, proving that Dacheng was reliable in the eyes of the young master.
One learned attentively, the other taught attentively, and the two of them cooked two beggar's chickens on the spot. In the end, the young master ate half of it.
The rest was given to the waiter on the scene.
Lin Chunhua followed behind Lin Xiaoman to teach others how to wrap yellow mud. She was considered a half-master and was given a big chicken leg.
It’s worth mentioning that there is a certain ratio between yellow mud and water. If it’s too thin, it won’t be able to wrap the meat, and if it’s too thick, the meat will be too dry.
Lin Chunhua was very happy. After learning for just a few days, she could become a master to others.
Especially, you can eat the beggar's chicken that you have been craving for. It is worth it.
Although she no longer had the chance to earn the ten cents a day, she was still happy because she could go back and raise chickens with her grandmother.
Xiaoman said that she would sell the chickens to the young master in the future.
That's a constant source of money.
What the old man said was true. Now she believed that Xiaoman was indeed a blessed person.
Look, Xiaoman was very silly before, and Shanglin Village was extremely poor.
Now Xiaoman has become smarter and is helping every household in Shanglin Village to make money.
What is this if not a lucky star?
Lin Xiaoman didn't know that Lin Chunhua had thought so much in her mind. She just felt a little guilty because she was asked to help with the work a few days ago, but she had no work to do after just a few days.
Unexpectedly, Lin Chunhua didn't mind at all and felt that earning a hundred copper coins was already very good.
After returning to Shanglin Village, Lin Xiaoman told the good news to his four aunts. He sold the live chickens to Ruyi Restaurant and asked them to raise more chickens.
I also talked to my aunt and asked my uncle to help catch another 200 chicks.
Lin Chunhua also asked Lin Xiaoman's uncle to take care of the fifty chicks.
On the second day, four men from the Li family entered the village, and the backpacks on their backs and the baskets in their hands were filled with chirping sounds.
The villagers saw a lot of furry yellow little chicks!
The Lin family bought chicks again?
Bought it not long ago!
"Didn't the Lin family just buy chicks not long ago? They're buying them again!"
"What's this for? Could it be that Lin Dajiang's eggs are not enough? Is business so good?"
"You know what? When Dajiang moved to a new house last time, there were preserved eggs at the buffet. The taste was weird at first, but it got better and better as time went on."
"Who would buy preserved eggs? They are so expensive. We can't even afford to eat eggs."
"Of course it's the rich and powerful. I heard that the young master of Ruyi Tower sells preserved eggs exclusively to the rich men in Lin'an Prefecture, and it is said that they even sell them to the capital. Think about it, doesn't the opera say that ordinary people in the capital are rich as hell?"
"That's impossible? We all have two eyes and one nose. Why are the people in Beijing richer than us?"
"Ah! What are you talking about? Lin Dajiang's family bought chickens again, and I asked someone to buy a few more."
"Why buy so many? Chickens and ducks consume a lot of food. The Lin family buys chickens for eggs. Why do you buy chickens? Are you going to starve for a year just to sell a few eggs?"
"How about we go and ask around?"
"Come on, let's go ask. There were so many chickens and ducks last year, and so many more this year. I saw they bought more than a hundred last time. They were all chirping. I saw them passing by. There were three big baskets. Taohua's eldest brother brought them."
"Taohua has a really good fate. She has even brought her mother's family back to prosper." A fat lady said enviously.
Laizi's mother next to him disagreed, "Then don't you see who was always bringing food to Taohua and her kids when they were starving? It was their brothers from your mother's family. Why don't you help your brothers from your mother's family when you are rich?"
A group of people walked towards the end of the village.
The noisy villagers rushed to the Lin family's courtyard and happened to meet Li Taohua counting in the yard.
Several baskets of chickens, how much does it cost?
The villagers were jealous.
"Taohua, why did you buy so many chicks again?"
This time, Li Taohua deliberately did not avoid people when buying chicks.
Xiaoman said that they told the villagers about the situation, and it was up to them whether they wanted to raise chickens or not.
After all, it takes food to raise chickens, and it takes several months to wait for them to lay eggs and sell them, so this period of time is difficult.
And they can't guarantee whether they can be sold for money in the end.
Li Taohua counted by herself and took the time to answer: "Isn't it that Ruyilou has a new dish called 'Beggar's Chicken' that needs adult chickens? We plan to raise more."
"Really? We have several chickens at home. We started raising them last May. They are getting fat. I wonder if Ruyilou will take them in?"
"Taohua, how many chicks have you bought this year?"
"I think there are several hundred of them?"
Li Taohua was counting chickens. The chicks were easily restless, so she didn't go back for fear of counting wrongly.
The villagers thought that Li Taohua was unwilling to reveal it, so they whispered, "I think there are three or four hundred of them."
"How much food does it take to raise so many chickens?"
"They make a lot of money selling breakfast and sausages throughout the year. Besides, food is a waste, but eggs and chickens can be sold for money, so they don't lose money in the end!"
"How about we buy a few more?"
Laizi's mother nodded. She wanted to buy it in her heart. After all, Lin Dajiang never made a loss in his business. But she was still very cautious in her words, "I'll ask Laizi later and see what he says."
"Yes, your Laizi also worked for the Lin family before. Why don't you ask him to find out?"
Laizi's mother hastily refused, "I won't get involved in this kind of thing."
Only after Li Taohua counted the chickens and paid the money did she come around to paying attention to her fellow villagers.
"The young master said that if beggar chickens sell well, he will definitely order the chickens we raise in Shanglin Village first."
What if it sells well? What if it doesn't sell well?
Some people who were already eager to buy chickens started to think about it again.
"Taohua, raising chickens consumes food. If you can't sell the chickens, won't you be left with nothing?"
Li Taohua sneered in her heart, "Aunt, it's up to you to raise the chicks or not. The money is in your hands. Could it be that someone has robbed your money and forced the chicks on you?"
After saying that, he covered his mouth and smiled.
But I was thinking to myself, it’s a good thing I did as Xiaoman said.
I haven't even bought any chicks yet, but I'm already worried about not being able to sell them.
If you’re worried about not being able to poop before you’ve even eaten, then just don’t eat!
Li Taohua doesn't tolerate these people.
Love to raise it or not!
After saying that, he and his brothers took the chicks, locked the door, and walked towards the chicken coop.
As soon as Li Taohua left, the villagers also dispersed.
They walked in groups of three or five, discussing in low voices whether or not to follow the Lin family in raising chickens.
Those who are more calculating have already planned to buy a few more chicks.
I was still hesitant and asked others whether they wanted to buy it.
Those who are afraid of losing money will decide to watch others raise money first, and then follow suit next year if they make money.
This made the villagers of Shadi Village very happy.
In previous years, the chicks could not be sold, and the people had to go from street to street to sell them in various villages. This year, they don’t have to go out at all. People will come to buy them just by sitting at home.
The key is that we haven’t sold enough!
Even those that haven't hatched yet have been reserved.
People in Shadi Village were strolling around happily.
Whenever he met someone, he would praise the daughter of the Li family for her promising future.
He also told the villagers not to sell all the chicks, but to raise a few more for themselves.
Didn’t you see that the Lin and Li families caught hundreds of them?
Let those two families make big money, and the others have less ability, so they can just follow behind and pick up the leftovers and make a little money.
I don’t ask for great wealth and honor, I just hope that every child in Shadi Village can have new coats to wear this year.
-
The bold ones will be starved to death, and the timid ones will be starved to death.
Li Erli modified the place where the Lin family originally raised rabbits and turned it into a chicken coop, making it look quite presentable.
I turned around and bought forty chickens.
Lin Chunhua persuaded her family to catch fifty chickens.
Linzhuang's wife was not very happy. How much food would this cost?
When the two children, Yaowen and Yaoguang, went out, they took away most of the money in the family.
Whether you are poor or rich, you have to bring more money with you, otherwise you will be outside crying out to heaven and earth but no one will help you.
However, her father-in-law still has the final say at home, so she can only feel uncomfortable.
Yaoshu is already ten years old. I wonder if his father-in-law will agree with what I said to him last year.
But the chicks have already been caught, so we can’t go back.
Linzhuang's wife was worried that Chunhua would not take the seriousness of the matter seriously and that it would be bad if she killed the chicks.
I can only take the trouble to give instructions from the side.
He also called his youngest son, "Yaoshu, do you want to study?"
"think."
Linzhuang's wife nodded and motioned for him to look at the chickens surrounded in the yard.
"Go, dig up some wild vegetables. If you come across any earthworms, dig them up and chop them up to feed the chickens, okay? When you've saved enough money, mom will ask your grandpa to let you go to school."
