My whole family is dancing

Chapter 283 A Hopeful and Prosperous Year

In the last few days of the year, there is an endless stream of believers who come to offer incense and pray for blessings. Taoist temples hold fasting sacrifices in these few days, and the ninth day of the first lunar month is the birthday of the Jade Emperor. It can be said that it is very busy to hold fasts on important days.

"Little uncle."

"Uncle Fu'er."

"Uncle, you are here~"

Bai Fuer walked in the Taoist temple, and the Taoist priests showed great enthusiasm for her arrival.

Baifuer did not disappoint them, and soon communicated enthusiastically with the believers who came, and the Taoist temple got a lot of money for sesame oil.

Bai Fuer, who was sleeping at night, still posted a lot of big seals in the house, just in case.

What she didn't know was that after the last incident, the Taoist temple again carefully inspected, repaired, and updated the gods and Buddhas enshrined in the Taoist temple. save money.

It is impossible for ordinary Xiao Piao Piao to enter the Taoist temple now.

Baifuer is busy, and Xiao Li's snack business has also sprung up. Thanks to the shop has some repeat customers, Baifanger made a sign and hung it at the door. After a while, regular customers will know that there is brown sugar in the shop. .

Brown sugar is a good thing, but good things are not cheap, "is it free to taste?"

It can be said that ninety-nine out of [-] people who are curious and onlookers don't know what brown sugar tastes like.

Bai Fang'er said with a smile: "Auntie, what is the price of brown sugar, where can I get it out for free tasting, it's a small business, I can't afford it."

No one refuted this.

"Daughter-in-law of the Wu family, just tell me how to sell it, and my aunt has to figure out whether she can afford it. If it's possible, let's come and make it sweet for the elderly and children at home during the Chinese New Year."

"Yes, just tell me, if my aunt gets scared, she will leave by herself."

After saying this, the onlookers all laughed.

Bai Fang'er also laughed and said: "The aunts are all people who live a good life, so they might not be scared. Today we launched brown sugar glutinous rice balls and brown sugar hair cakes, which cost fifteen yuan and are more expensive than maltose. If you want Aunts who have a fresh taste can invite them inside."

The price was actually cheaper than everyone expected, and many people entered the door cheerfully, "We can't afford the brown sugar that sells for two taels outside, but it's okay to have a taste of it for fifteen cents."

When I entered the gate, I saw that the tables had been set up inside, and the people who came in were all familiar women, and everyone was not uncomfortable, so they sat down cheerfully, and someone asked, "I think it's all Fifteen Wen and two, can I get one of the same?"

As soon as she suggested it, everyone thought it was okay, and if it didn't taste good, it could save fifteen cents.

Mrs. Li took Yang Lin's daughter-in-law, Zhang Luo, to this stall, and there was nothing he would not agree to. The glutinous rice balls in the pot were already ups and downs and began to roll, and there was a stack of bowls beside them. It came in handy.

The size of the glutinous rice balls is not small, mainly because peanuts are added inside. These people took a bite carefully and their eyes lit up immediately. They immediately started to eat in small bites. Those who were still full of food and had big wallets ordered another one, which was not so big. Some of them tasted the fat cakes. They were sweet and delicious, and they stopped eating after only one bite. They wanted to keep it and share it with their family members.

"This hair cake is big, I think it's worth it."

"Aunt Baijia, do you still have this? I'll go back and get a bowl later, and let the family members taste it too."

The business is good, Mrs. Li smiled from ear to ear and nodded repeatedly. Seeing that there are all female relatives here, she said mysteriously that brown sugar can relieve the pain of her sister-in-law, and finally said:
"I was skeptical at first, but it happened that someone in the family had a stomachache. I used that brown sugar to cook a bowl of egg brown sugar water. After eating it for a while, it became much better and smoother. This brown sugar is the best thing."

The people present nodded repeatedly, and some people really felt a little more comfortable in their stomachs. Xiao Li felt that it was very likely that they drank the hot soup made of glutinous rice balls. How could a glutinous rice ball have such a big effect?

But she didn't say anything, and just said that brown sugar is good.

"I don't hide it from everyone. If there is a well-informed aunt, she will know that our Baijia has opened a brown sugar workshop this year. This brown sugar is made by my family. Those big merchants all get the goods from my house."

"You may not know that this brown sugar is very heavy on the scale. It doesn't look like a big piece and it weighs a catty. How much can you make into glutinous rice balls? If it weren't for our own brown sugar, we wouldn't be able to sell it at such a price."

The people below looked suddenly enlightened, Xiao Li began to introduce the various benefits of brown sugar, and there were more and more people watching below. If Baifuer was here, I am afraid that her aunt would become a counterfeit drug seller host.

In the end, under Xiao Li's extravagant publicity, the retail price of brown sugar was set at [-] yuan and one tael, and many women bought a tael on the spot, mainly to cook sugar water for drinking when they went back.

Even if Xiao Li's stall is well established, even if it is five hundred Wen a catty, she sells it for 81 taels now, and she earns three hundred Wen per catty, that's fine.

What she didn't know was that these were all made by failure or mixed with broken pieces. They belonged to second-class brown sugar and were not worth five hundred yuan at all.

The busy days passed quickly, and everyone from Bailihui to Baiyegen was busy, because Baiyegen was going to help feed the rabbits and play with the boys in the village.

On the afternoon of the New Year's Eve, the entrance of the village became lively, and Bai Lihui returned with the men who danced Duangong in the village.

The money has been distributed a long time ago, and now all of them have bulging waists, carrying wine, meat and snacks in their hands. As soon as they returned to the village, the children in the village greeted them excitedly.

Every household in the village is full of laughter. Some people have earned a few taels of silver just by dancing Duan Gong this month, and some have earned a lot of money by harvesting sugar cane for a month. Bai Changqing said, let alone earn ten taels of silver.

It can be said that the people of Wenchang Village had their first prosperous year in so many years.

What made them even more happy was that most of the sugarcane in Wenchang Village was still in the field, which would bring them another fortune after the year.

After Zhang Xianyu was busy delivering the third batch of brown sugar this year, the brown sugar workshop also closed the door. A large log was added to the stove and pressed with tongs. He ordered people to check occasionally to ensure that the fire was not turned off.

This afternoon, hundreds of families were busy hanging lanterns and posting couplets, the chatter and laughter in the kitchen never stopped, it was extremely lively.

In the evening, the whole family had a reunion dinner together. Originally, Bailichang's family was going to come, but they lived in a new house this year, so naturally they wanted to make the new house lively, so they didn't come.

After eating, the whole family sat down one by one under the eaves, preparing for the year-end inventory. Before they could speak, they laughed cheerfully. When he laughed, everyone laughed too. It is really hopeful and prosperous this year.
