The Big Farmer of Time Traveling
Chapter 036 Doing Business
When eating in the evening, Lin Ancheng was thinking about jelly, and acted a little absent-minded. The youngest Lin gave him a few glances, pointed at Sang Sang, and said that Zhou Xiaozhu didn't teach the child well, and the meal didn't taste good at such an age.
Zhou Xiaozhu is not a good-tempered person. He was so angry with the youngest Lin for some reason, and he really didn't want to hold it back, but he thought that his husband would only come home once a month or two, so it would be difficult to make a fuss at the dinner table, so he could only bear with it. Stay silent.
Seeing that Zhou Xiaozhu was too scared to speak, the youngest Lin was very proud. Everyone came from mud-legged backgrounds, and it was because Zhou Xiaozhu's father was lucky enough to be the accountant of a pawnshop in the county. The son moved to the county seat, and usually came back to show someone that he looked down on the farmhouse.
The youngest Lin's idea greatly wronged Zhou Xiaozhu. If Zhou Xiaozhu really looked down on the farm family, would he help Li Xiu every time he came back?The Zhou family only moved to the county seat ten years ago. Zhou Xiaozhu also grew up in the countryside for more than ten years, and he is not good at work outside the house.
Regardless of the atmosphere of the meal, everyone finished eating.
It's strange to say that the Lin family had a talented man, but the old man Lin and the youngest Lin didn't take it seriously. When building a new house, they used the excuse that Uncle Lin didn't come home often, and there was no room for Uncle Lin and his wife in the new house, so every The next time Uncle Lin and Zhou Xiaozhu came back, they still lived in the same old house as Erfang.
Lin Xiazhi just thought it was funny to make such an arrangement, because a Taoist priest treated his own son and grandson like this because of his lies.
When it was getting dark, Lin Xiazhi asked Lin Chengzong and Lin Ancheng to call the adults who were still busy back to the old house. After everyone came back, Lin Chengzu took the initiative to guard the door of the old house, so as to inform everyone as soon as possible.
You don't need an iron kitchen knife to cut jelly, you can just use a clean thin wood slice. Lin Xiazhi didn't use a kitchen bowl, but used bamboo knots.
Usually, when villagers want to make things with bamboo, they would cut down the thick bamboo on the mountain, which would leave a lot of bamboo knots, and the Lin family was no exception.
However, some bamboo joints were cut too hard to hold things, and eight suitable bamboo joints were found through patchwork.
A small pot of jelly was divided into eight portions by Lin Xiazhi, only Lin Ancheng's portion was smaller, and everyone else was full: "Everyone, come and try, this is my new food made from sweet potatoes today."
"What's this?" Everyone looked at Lin Xiazhi and gave them something puzzled. Lin Xiazhi hadn't poured seasoning on the jelly yet, so the jelly looked nothing special and didn't smell very good.
"Don't worry, I still have something to use." Lin Xiazhi turned back to the room and took out the seasoning bowl.
A little seasoning was poured into each bamboo joint. As soon as the smell of the seasoning spread, everyone smelled the fragrance, and immediately looked forward to the things in the bowl.
"Ah, take out the brown sugar that my uncle bought, and put brown sugar for Zong'er and An Cheng." Lin Xiazhi was worried that the seasoning would be too strong for the children.
Li Xiu was a little hesitant, brown sugar is expensive, if Brother Xia can't eat this, wouldn't it be a waste of brown sugar.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I think Brother Xia's food is good, so you can bring out the brown sugar." Zhou Xiaozhu is quite optimistic, and his mouth is watering just by smelling it.
Lin Xiazhi taught everyone to gently stir the jelly so that the seasoning would be evenly coated on the jelly.Lin Xiazhi was the first to take the first bite. On this hot summer evening, eating such a mouthful of cold jelly made me feel refreshed from body to heart!
With Lin Xiazhi speaking, everyone began to try to eat.
The first bite was a bit cautious, but the smooth and tender taste of the jelly and Lin Xiazhi’s special seasoning instantly conquered the mouths of all the people present. No one commented, only the sound of eating jelly was left in the room.
"This is life!" Lin Xiazhi finished eating first, and he sighed contentedly. These days, he ate whole grains and his throat hurt, but today he was finally able to eat normal food.
Immediately after Lin Xiazhi, the others finished eating one after another, even the condiments in the bowl were eaten up. Only Lin Chengzong and Lin Ancheng ate slowly, and there were still some in the bamboo joints.
"Brother Xia, this is too delicious." Zhou Xiaozhu said first, "It's really unexpected that this kind of smooth and tender food is made of sweet potatoes. The cold dishes I have eaten before have no taste or texture. It can’t compare to tonight’s... it’s called jelly, right? It’s perfect for summer! Did you use a different topping?”
"I'm new to this food. I can't eat jelly and toppings anywhere else." Lin Xiazhi looked smug, and it was his talent to succeed once, "Brother hasn't eaten yet, Daddy, how about you go over and change it?" Brother?"
"Okay." Lin Huzi agreed.
When Lin Chengzu came in, the smell of spices in the room was still there, and he seemed to be hungry again after he had just had a full meal.
Several other people looked at Lin Chengzu's jelly, and regretted eating too fast just now, and now they can only watch Lin Chengzu eat.
After Lin Chengzong and Lin Ancheng finished eating, Lin Xiazhi asked Lin Chengzong to take his younger brother to the door to play.
"Brother, how does it taste?" Lin Xiazhi asked Lin Chengzu who had finished eating jelly.
"It's so delicious!" Lin Chengzu's comments were also very high, the bamboo joints in his hands were also clean and there was nothing left, if not for so many people present, he would even want to lick off the remaining bits.
"Daddy, Ah, Uncle, Uncle, Big Brother, do you think the jelly I made can be sold on the street?" Lin Xiazhi opened the window to let the smell out of the room.
Lin Xiazhi has been thinking about ways to make money for a long time, but he has never figured out what kind of snacks to start with. This successful attempt made him sure, and he will sell jelly in summer.
"For money?" Zhou Xiaozhu slapped his head, yes, of course such delicious jelly can be sold for money.
When the smell in the room was almost gone, Lin Xiazhi went to call Lin Huzi in, and everyone discussed the matter together.
"However, today is the first time I do it, and there are still some areas to be improved. It will take some time before I can actually sell it in the county." Lin Xiazhi paused and continued, "It's summer now, and I will send the recipe as soon as possible. Try it out, let’s go to the county together to do a small business, my father and my mother make jelly at home, and my brother and uncle sell it in the county. The initial idea is that we can make two flavors, one is the spicy one we eat Yes, one is the sweet one that Zong'er and the others eat, and the money they earn is [-] cents, what do you think?"
"Brother Xia, you came up with this recipe, are you really willing to share it with everyone?" Zhou Xiaozhu hesitated, this opportunity to make money is so rare, he was very moved by what Brother Xia said, but Fang Zi was the second brother As a family, they joined to take advantage of it.
"Uncle, let's not talk about the relationship between our two families, just take a look at my family's situation. Zong'er has to go to school. Dad and Ah Mo can let them do things, but they can't go out to do business. I'm not in good health. Big brother can't set up a stall in the county alone." Lin Xiazhi analyzed.
Everyone felt that what he said made sense, and it was indeed the case. If Lin Chengzu had Fulang, the whole family would be able to do well. In the current situation, Zhou Xiaozhu really had to help.
"Uncle, uncle, Brother Xia is right." Lin Chengzu spoke in agreement.
Lin Chengzu has the final say on Lin Erfang's situation now, Lin Huzi and Li Xiu have no opinion, and they are willing to listen to the eldest son.
Zhou Xiaozhu looked at Uncle Lin, they still had Uncle Lin to make the decision.
Uncle Lin was also very moved, but he thought the same as Zhou Xiaozhu, since Brother Xia came up with this recipe, then it belonged to the second brother's family, and they took advantage of the second brother.
"Brother Xia, since the prescription you said just now has not been finalized yet, then let Uncle Lin think about it." Uncle Lin was still struggling, and he wanted to discuss it with Fu Lang in private.
Uncle Lin's reaction was in Lin Xiazhi's prediction. No matter what Uncle Lin thinks now, he will definitely persuade Uncle Lin's family to set up a stall together in the end.
In such an era when news is not circulated, if there is a recipe that makes money, the family will definitely keep it under wraps so that no outsiders will know about it.But Lin Xiazhi is different, he has a lot of recipes in his mind, after the jelly is released, Lin Xiazhi will find a way to gradually restore other snacks from his previous life, only his family must be short of manpower.
Thinking that it would not be easy for my uncle's family to come back, I took the time to discuss other matters as well.
Lin Xiazhi said: "The partnership doesn't matter in advance, what preparations do we have to make to be a food stall, do you know?"
Lin Xiazhi's question came out, but everyone present was from a banker's family and didn't know how to do business. They looked left and right, but they didn't know what to say.
It was Zhou Xiaozhu who broke the silence. His father worked as a bookkeeper in a pawn shop in the county town. Their family moved to the county town first, and they knew a little about setting up stalls and doing small businesses in the county town.
"First of all, we have to rent a booth in the county seat. The booth fee is not expensive. We have to inquire about the exact amount. If you are willing to give the yamen servant a little favor, you can find a good location." Although Zhou Xiaozhu had never done business, But listen to what others have said.
With Zhou Xiaozhu opening up the chatterbox, others expressed their opinions one after another.
"We rented a booth, and we still need to prepare enough bowls and chopsticks, as well as tables, chairs and benches. I don't think there is a need to prepare a stove for selling jelly, but only a large basin for jelly."
"The guests ate jelly, and we have to have water to wash the dishes, so we have to be near a house with a well."
……
As soon as the discussion started, everyone's thoughts were mobilized. Before the prescription was fully settled, the enthusiasm for making money burned up.
Seeing everyone's eyes shining, Lin Xiazhi secretly made up his mind to research the prescription as soon as possible.
In fact, there is still a worry that Lin Xiazhi didn't bring it up. With Lin's youngest temperament, how could he allow the second and third families to make money alone, but this is not a big problem. He basically figured out how to deal with grandpa and youngest , not afraid of them making trouble.
Zhou Xiaozhu is not a good-tempered person. He was so angry with the youngest Lin for some reason, and he really didn't want to hold it back, but he thought that his husband would only come home once a month or two, so it would be difficult to make a fuss at the dinner table, so he could only bear with it.
