Seeing that the other party was dressed in a blue cloth coat and came down from the train station, Zhang Xiulan guessed whether it would be worth this money, "If there are children at home, it is good to buy them back and make snacks." ”"Bring me ten."
The man didn't feel sorry for the money when he arrived, and directly asked for ten.Zhang Xiulan took out a piece of oiled paper and wrapped it in the past ten younger brothers, and did not forget to tell the other party after receiving the money, "My family is at the last one on this street, and I made it on the first day today, there is only this one flavor, and there will be other flavors in the future, and the eldest brother can buy it at home at any time if he wants to eat it." ”Zhang Xiulan is worn, which makes people feel sympathetic, and the bangs that cover her face look honest, and what she says is also true, which makes people feel comfortable when they buy things.There was this one who came forward to inquire, and there were also people coming from all around, less one, more than ten, half a pot of shortbread was sold out before the train station, and there were still some that were not bought.Zhang Xiulan said to go back and get it immediately, twenty catties of noodles are an average of one pound of noodles to make twenty-five shortbreads, Zhang Xiulan also has nearly five hundred, and the big pot she bought can hold more than 100 at a time, Zhang Xiulan tossed back and forth four times, and the shortbread made was sold out.In the end, she didn't sell five of them, and went to Gao Yunbao's house, just Gao Yunbao's daughter-in-law was at home, Zhang Xiulan handed over all five shortbreads, Gao Yunbao's daughter-in-law looked like an honest person, and she refused to ask for it until Gao Yunbao sent coal back to someone else's house, so she let her daughter-in-law accept it."
Sister, you're too polite, I've heard of it, your shortbread is two cents a piece.We are all in business, and we know that this money is not easy to earn, so you can just keep it and sell it. ”"Big Brother Gao.If you hadn't helped me ask for a wooden board to make a panel, I wouldn't know what to do, and how could I sell it if I couldn't make shortbread?
Besides, this thing is made at home, and I feel sorry for the money when I eat it myself, I have to be busy, and you and your sister-in-law will also go over and sit when you are free. ”With the experience of the last time, Zhang Xiulan has thought about it this time.No matter where you go, you have to make a few capable people.If there is really anything, you can't see death without help.She thinks this Gao Yunbao is real, she can hear him speak half the street in her voice, and he is enthusiastic, and the old man often says that people with a loud voice are more straightforward.There are not so many bends in the mind.Before going home, Zhang Xiulan went around to the supply and marketing cooperative, and this time she asked people to send a bag of noodles to her home, and bought some green onions, and bought two catties of cotton, and bought two meters of silk cotton cloth, the cloth is two pieces of three cents and six meters, three pieces of cotton, two cents and five pounds, plus a bag of white noodles and a bundle of green onions, a total of thirty-six yuan and three cents.When she got home, Zhang Xiulan closed the door.I counted the money, and I got ninety-eight yuan for selling shortbread today, plus seventy-eight from before.Excluding the rent and the expenses of the past few days, I still have ninety-four yuan, six cents and six cents in my hand.Zhang Xiulan kicked the money and ate the last shortbread left in the house, and then she was busy shouting again, selling it like this, and removing the capital of 500 shortbread.can still earn 80 yuan, and she can save thousands of yuan a month.saw hope, and Zhang Xiulan was full of energy.Today, I sold it all day, and there was also the first day when everyone felt fresh, so they would come to buy it, and it would be so good in the future, so she still made five hundred shortbreads, and they were all busy, it was the second half of the night, Zhang Xiulan glanced at the cotton and cloth on the kang, and it seemed that she could only find time to make quilts again tomorrow, so she and Yi on the kang for another night.The next day, she threw away the old pot of shortbread to sell at the train station, this time it was not as good as yesterday, and it seems that there are not many people who take the train here now, Zhang Xiulan made only half of the five hundred shortbreads sold, and she took the remaining half of the pot to her home.When passing by Xu's house at the corner of the street, when she saw Old Man Xu looking over, Zhang Xiulan called Uncle with a smile, and Old Man Xu stopped her with a smile, "Girl, why do you sell these shortbreads?"
”Sold it for a day yesterday, this town is so big, Zhang Xiulan doesn't believe that he doesn't know, and then look at his appearance, he knows that he is a bargain.Zhang Xiulan glanced behind him, the house was only four walls, and it would take at least half a month to build it, so she had an idea, "Uncle, my shortbread costs two cents a piece, if I buy more than a hundred, I will have a dime and a half, you see that your family is building a house, this shortbread is hungry, why don't you have some?"
Moreover, this is a noodle made with oil, which will not be bad for four or five days, and can be eaten slowly. ”Obviously, Old Man Xu wanted to take advantage, and before he could bargain, he let Zhang Xiulan's words be gagged, a hundred?
That's fifteen yuan, who can spend fifteen yuan to order a snack together?
Old Man Xu smiled gurglingly, "Look at this condition, where can you eat this snack and spend so much money, and the guests in the past will spend this spare money in order to cushion their stomachs." ”Without saying much, Xu Laohan shook back to look at his house, and no longer paid attention to Zhang Xiulan.Zhang Xiulan smiled faintly, didn't say much, took the basin and went home, not long after arriving home, Gao Yunbao's daughter-in-law came, Zhang Xiulan hurriedly pulled people to sit on the kang, "My family is only busy making shortbread every day, and I don't have time to clean up the house." ”Gao Yunbao's daughter-in-law's surname is Song, Song Xiaohua, usually known in the town is called Xiaohua, and her mother's house is in the forest farm below."
Sister, I heard that you didn't sell well today, so come and take a look, don't worry, we can't sell it, you can follow the set, go to sell it below, there will always be someone to buy."
Song Xiaohua doesn't seem to move around usually, and it seems that she has a lot of courage to say these words.Zhang Xiulan gratefully took her hand, "Sister-in-law, thank you so much, otherwise I would really be here to sell it every day." ”As if encouraged, Song Xiaohua was not as nervous as she was just now, and her words became calm, "Our ten forestry bureaus come to us every Sunday to catch the market, their own market is Monday, if you want to earn more, go to their market on Monday, otherwise we can wait until our Sunday market."
There is a carriage every day to the Forestry Bureau below, and it is a dollar to go back and forth, which is the Xu family who lives at the entrance of this street, and their family has a carriage, but which Forestry Bureau to go to every Monday depends on the number of people to decide which one to go to. ”"I've written it down, it's really troublesome for my sister-in-law today."
Zhang Xiulan saw that Song Xiaohua was leaving, so she went to pick up shortbread.Song Xiaohua hurriedly refused, "You can't ask for it, you sent five yesterday, and you just came here again, even if I don't tell you this, you will know in a few days, and this will not help you anything." ”The two shirked for a while, Zhang Xiulan's mouth was powerful again, and Song Xiaohua could only take five shortbreads with a red face before leaving.Zhang Xiulan went back to the house and counted that she had sold more than 200 today, earned 45 yuan, and put the rest on the board before returning to the kang to make quilts.Most of the quilts in rural areas are three catties of cotton with four catties, cotton is too expensive, Zhang Xiulan is reluctant, only made a two-catty quilt, and it is also simple, only the cotton is evenly spread on the cotton cloth, and the other half of the cloth is folded over and covered on it, and the two-meter cloth is not cut, so that only three sides are sewn, and a few rows are simply included in the middle, even if it is done, there is no quilt cover.Today is Thursday, and there are still two days left before the market in the town, Zhang Xiulan decided to sell them in the town for the past two days, and she is not making shortbread, so she should rest and wait for Saturday night to make more and make everything that will be used on Sunday and Monday.In this way, after making the quilt, Zhang Xiulan lay down directly to rest.In the past two days, the quilt has not been covered, and Zhang Xiulan has not frozen, and the shortbread needs to be cooked, and the pot is connected to the kang, so that there is a lot of fire, and the kang is hot.At night, she is covered with clothes and cotton clothes worn in winter, and it is also warm, and there is a quilt cover tonight, Zhang Xiulan took off her coat, and shrunk in the quilt in her autumn clothes and pants, more than one meter and six tall, covered with a one-meter quilt, it is indeed not big enough, but as the weather gets warmer and warmer, there is no need for a quilt, and it is not too late to say it when it is cold.On the third day, there were fewer people buying shortbread than on the second day, only more than 150 were sold, so that there were still 50 left, which were left to be sold on the fourth day, and they were sold out in just one morning, and when she came back in the afternoon, Zhang Xiulan began to make shortbread wholeheartedly.This time, she also made a green onion flavor, and she went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy a pound of sugar, and also made a candy heart, plus another salt, so that there are three flavors.Zhang Xiulan has been busy since the afternoon, and she didn't rest for a moment, and she was busy until almost dawn, and then she finished work, only to see that in addition to the panel, the oil paper on the kang was piled up with shortbread.Today is a Sunday market, the sky is bright, someone rushed to occupy the place to set up a stall, Zhang Xiulan has someone in front of the ground, she is not in a hurry to sell, but from south to north to look around, before returning home.There are three companies in the set that sell biscuits, and they also sell sugar and twist flowers, but there are no shortbreads, Zhang Xiulan has a plan in her heart, and when she goes home, she wraps a few shortbreads in oiled paper and goes out, and returns to selling biscuits."
Big brother, do you want to sell some shortbread?"
Zhang Xiulan is also unwilling to make a little money, and now she has a little surplus in her hand, so she wants to make it bigger, while taking out one of the shortbreads and handing them over, "Big brother, you can taste it first." ”The other party is a sweaty man in his forties, his home is from the Forestry Bureau below, and he pulls small goods to catch up with the market all year round, and when he sees the shortbread handed over by Zhang Xiulan, the yellow ones are as if they have been fried, and he can't help but have an appetite.When I take a bite, it is full of crispy and delicious than twist.Now that the family conditions are good, they can afford to buy a two-cent twist flower, let alone the shortbread in front of them."
What's going on?"
The woman next to her asked her man, took the shortbread in his hand and took a bite, and swallowed it in a few bites, "This thing is good, this is ......"
"Shortbread, I have relatives in the south who taught me to make it, I make it more, do you want to ask my eldest brother and sister-in-law wholesale and retail?"
”The two of them have been selling small odds since they were young, so they naturally know that this is a good thing in Zhang Xiulan's hand, "How did you approve this thing?"
”(To be continued) ps: Thank you for the two sachets of Sha Baobao. .........
