MTL - Rebirth Married The Control Group Fulang-Chapter 45
Zhang Fangyuan was in the meat market until the beginning of the afternoon, so Ji Houhou took the hot food in the restaurant and prepared to go to see Xu He's achievements today.
But he had just come out of the restaurant, and before he had time to go there, he saw someone coming back with a basket on his back.
"hungry?"
Zhang Fangyuan went to pick up Xu He's pannier hanging on his shoulders, and when he picked it up, he found it was light: "Yo, there are a lot of sales."
Xu He let him take the basket, and hugged the food box instead, and the two exchanged things tacitly. Xu He felt relaxed on his back, and felt even more relaxed in his heart. The warm food box was hot and his heart was hot: "It's all sold out."
"So fast!" Zhang Fangyuan's eyes lit up: "This is not much faster than selling pork!"
Xu He just laughed and didn't respond to his jokes.
"Hungry, eat."
Zhang Fangyuan laughed, and hurriedly followed Xu He's footsteps. The two returned to the stall and stuffed the basket behind the stall, and took a piece of white gauze to cover all the meat on the stall, and the two of them delivered the meat together City, go to the gazebo outside to eat.
It became more and more difficult to eat in the hot meat market, and the butchers rushed outside, and some of them went home to eat when they saw that there was no business. The stall is so empty, I am not afraid that someone will dare to go in to get things.
There may be thieves who dare to go in places like the vegetable market, but there are definitely no thieves who dare to enter the meat market. A group of butchers with knives and sticks don't know if they are still there.
The two ate lunch early, and first occupied a small table in the gazebo. Seeing Zhang Fangyuan setting out the meal, Xu He was not in a hurry to eat, but counted the money first.
It's a heavy bag, and it's much easier to take it out. He buried his head and counted one by one, a total of four hundred and eighty characters.
Xu He calculated again, leaving aside the cost of oil paper, seasonings and meat at the stall, it was about 178 yuan, and there were 300 yuan left!
Even though he was a quiet person, Xu He laughed at this time, he can earn so much money in a day! In the past, when the market for vegetables was good, it was only a few dozen pennies a day, but this has increased many times.
The higher the investment, the higher the return.
Xu He decided to go home and pay more! Wait, but you have to buy a livestock at home to have these things. He turned back subconsciously, and the cabbage that Zhang Fangyuan had picked up almost hit him in the face.
"Be careful!"
Xu He opened his mouth and ate the food: "There is still half a pig's head left at home, so there are not many things that can be marinated at night. If you go to other stalls to buy pig offal, it will be expensive."
"That's right! Our pigs are bought at the price of woolen pigs, so the profit should be more than three hundred!"
Zhang Fangyuan saw that he was completely stuck in making money and couldn't get out, so he put his money back into his pocket: "Eat first. There are other stews on the stall. After eating, go back and choose." Is it all right?"
Xu He nodded, and then picked up his chopsticks to eat. The two of them ate a simple lunch, a small cabbage, and the bamboo shoots, peppers, and radishes that Xu He had soaked earlier, and brought some to eat. Zhang Fangyuan ate two mouthfuls of crispy radishes, leaned in front of Xu He and said, "Chef Xu is earning money now, shouldn't the villain's wages also go up?"
"Huh?" Xu He heard that the light of earning money suddenly faded in his eyes, and he suddenly became cautious: "Why do you want to increase the money? Is there anything you want to buy?"
Zhang Fangyuan didn't mean to ask for money, but he just wanted to ask for ideas when people were happy. He was about to open his mouth, but he didn't expect the person to think for a while, and said solemnly: "Yes, next time you want to buy something, I will give you more." You have five cents. You can spend whatever you want."
"..."
On the street, you can get ten pennies a day when the market is good.
Seeing the words understanding, accommodating, and generous written all over Xu He's face, he was unable to speak.
"What's the matter? Don't you think it's too little?"
Zhang Fangyuan immediately squeezed out a smile: "How come! I'm too happy to be happy." Whose married man can freely control five cents like him!
"Actually, it doesn't matter whether the money goes up or not. I have food, clothing and housing at the moment. What matters is that I have to buy everything I need at home. Should we buy it..." Zhang Fangyuan moved closer and blinked his eyes.
Xu He paused for a moment with his swollen face after eating. He naturally knew what Zhang Fangyuan wanted to buy. After earning money, he was indeed much more patient and generous than usual: "How much?"
Zhang Fangyuan frowned slightly, and stretched out five fingers.
Xu He's eyes widened suddenly. The thing obviously touched his blind spot of knowledge. Although he didn't know the market, he also knew that it couldn't cost five cents, and even the small porcelain vase that contained the things cost more than five cents.
But fifty coins is really too expensive, how can this ordinary people afford it. No wonder some people don't want to marry a younger brother to pass through the family, but there is such a layer of hidden feelings in it.
"So expensive?"
Zhang Fangyuan coughed dryly: "Or you can go buy it."
"I don't mean that, you just get it from the money you sell the meat."
How does he know that thing, he doesn't know the good or the bad, he can't know the goods, let alone, it is impossible for a little brother to jump into the flower building, what does it look like when people see it, and besides, the fish and dragons are mixed, no matter how you find someone to buy it Knowing: "Just buy one this time."
Seeing that Xu He agreed, Zhang Fangyuan hadn't had time to be beautiful yet, so he couldn't help but said, "Why!"
Xu He was also in a hurry: "Buying a few at a time, wouldn't it be a day's money for nothing!"
Zhang Fangyuan swallowed, without blushing and heartbeat: "But the more you buy, the more you can benefit. Two are three cents cheaper, and four are eight cents cheaper!"
Xu He was slightly moved.
"It's necessary to use the left and right. Buying more at one time will not only save you money, but also save you running around again and again. Although it is open to do business, but people always remember their faces in the past and tell jokes secretly, right?" Zhang Fang Yuan took advantage of the victory to pursue, and after finishing speaking, he magnified his move: "Why don't you go! I'm stupid and I don't know how to bargain. You can tell if it will be cheaper."
Xu He's ears turned red, and he said quickly: "Forget it, I-I can't buy everything. You will buy more things and you will bargain after you practice. You can buy as you see."
"Okay then." Zhang Fangyuan said as if he was in danger, "Don't blame me if you pay too much."
Xu He nodded, holding the rice bowl and looked around again, seeing that there was nothing around, let alone paying attention to the two of them, so he finished the meal in peace.
After eating, Zhang Fangyuan returned to the stall happily, but Xu He changed his joy of earning money and was a little hesitant, and occupied Zhang Fangyuan's recliner when he returned to the stall.
The chair Zhang Fangyuan still looked cramped when he sat on it, but Xu He looked very spacious when he sat on it, and it was not too much to sleep on it.
"No one comes to buy things now. I'll go out for a while and come back soon."
Zhang Fangyuan was afraid that people would change his mind, so he took the money back to the stall and wanted to run outside. Xu He turned a blind eye, as if he didn't know what he was going to do: "You go."
Seeing the people leave, he picked up a fan and slapped the flies. He searched for some dried wormwood to burn tomorrow to drive away the mosquitoes to get rid of the fishy smell, and searched for the leftover meat on the stall. All that is sold today are fatty meat and streaky pork belly. The pork offal is still there, small intestines, pork livers, kidneys...
Xu He saw that only the small intestines of pigs could be marinated, and nothing else. In addition, he also took a fancy to the pig's feet, pig's tail, and pig's tongue, and it can also marinate pork ribs on the outside!
Today's vegetarian dishes are also easy to sell. Even if the stewed pork has changed the style and taste, the dish is also simply changed.
Nowadays, cowpeas from the earlier crop have grown in the village. The light bean-green cowpeas have long, thin roots and are the most crispy. They are suitable for soaking sour cowpeas in the sun, and are also suitable for cooking and cooking porridge.
However, the cowpea is tender, and people in the village will feel that they will be reluctant to pick it if they eat it before it is mature.
The cowpeas in their family were ordered a little late. After the poles were erected, they are still blooming and producing stalks. They are not half as thick as a little finger, and the cowpea taste has not yet grown even though they are willing to pick them.
It's not a problem, if you give some money to pick some in the field, the villagers will be happy to keep it. In addition, the spring bamboo shoots used today can be replaced with square bamboo shoots. The stewed bamboo shoots with small roots are better than spring bamboo shoots. I have a few catties at home, so you don’t need to look for them.
It's a pity that there is no fresh fungus. Several guests said it was delicious. It seems that at that time, we can only use the dried fungus saved at home and then use it.
He was satisfied when he saw that there would be more waiters at the stall tomorrow, and secretly thought that he could go home as soon as possible.
In the past, he was the one who persuaded Zhang Fangyuan to set up a stall before going back, but now that the sun was setting westward on Qingyao Peak, he urged people to go back. For this reason, Zhang Fangyuan also promised that if he met an old man selling fish on the way out of the city, he would buy a fish and go home.
Xu He also agreed to cook the fish with the leftover crispy pickled radish from lunch today.
When the two drove the carriage back to the village, half of the sky was dyed by the sunset glow, and the evening breeze was blowing. Zhang Fangyuan raised his feet and pulled the reins loosely, thinking about the good fortune at night.
"Why does the village look busier than before?"
Zhang Fangyuan raised his neck when he heard the sound, and it was true that the Hu's courtyard at the entrance of the village was noisy.
"Go and have a look?"
Xu He wasn't a fan of spectators, but the carriage still had to pass by other people's houses.
The horse passed by, Zhang Fangyuan saw the yamen servant with a knife on his waist at a glance, he didn't need to go, he knew what was going on: "The tax collector is here."
"Which family? Go home and prepare, pay the population tax and corvee tax!"
The two of them hadn't opened their mouths yet, but the yamen servant stopped them first.
"This year, corvee tax and poll tax will be paid together?"
Zhang Fangyuan sat on the cart and asked.
The yamen servant looked Zhang Fangyuan up and down, and was slightly dissatisfied with his attitude of not getting out of the car to talk to him respectfully, and said sharply: "The imperial court's edict is like this, and I can't agree with you and other small people. Let you go back and prepare So get ready, why talk so much!"
Zhang Fangyuan is not a good-tempered person either, he turned his head and wanted to go back, but Xu He grabbed his wrist: "Understood Jun, let's go back and prepare money and taxes."
The yamen servant was only slightly satisfied: "Come back, how much should be paid by then, and how many people are in corvee, there are records here."
