Chapter 318
On successive sunny days, the popsicle business should be in full swing. When she returned home and saw Aunt Zhang Qi was a child, Ding Xuewei's first reaction was that something had happened.
"It's okay, but someone started to sell it. Let's make a calculation and retire." Aunt Zhang Qi explained.
It turned out that another team selling popsicles appeared in the city early this morning. The popsicles in this team were not only bigger than those in the village, but also cheaper.
Although, bare popsicles are tasteless, but they can't stand the price advantage of five cents a piece.
It is better for a family to eat one each than to watch one eat.
"Their saltpeter was bought from Lu County. When they went to Lu County, Lu County had just announced the news of ice production, and the price of saltpeter hadn't risen much."
The original price of saltpeter is only more than 100 yuan a catty. In addition to the loss of saltpeter and wood, it is manpower to make ice. The price is five yuan, and there is at least a profit of three yuan.
In terms of individual profits, the difference is not much, but overall, the gap is large, and they sell much more than the village!
"You, Uncle Qiao, are also a bold master. When you found a problem, you made a decision and went directly to their boss, and then sold the caramel at the original price..."
Speaking of this, Aunt Zhang Qi kept giggling as if thinking of something about Coke.
Uncle Zhang Qi waited tolerantly for a while without seeing her refrain, and then continued: "Your Uncle Qiao wanted to bring peach jam back and make peach juice for the children later, but the boss actually asked about it." , When he asked, your Uncle Qiao sold the peach jam, not only that, but also ordered five thousand catties to go out. The price is eight cents per catty."
The peaches in the village are wool peaches with cotton pulp, which are not heavy in water. One and a half catties of peaches can be used to cook a catty of peach jam. With the addition of labor and firewood, the cost of a catty of peach jam is only four renminbi.
During this period of time, the price of peaches is higher than in previous years, two pennies per catty!
The food that was originally planned to be saved for the children has now been sold for money, which will not make Aunt Zhang Qi very happy!
"There are already enough dried fruits, and it is a good thing that the remaining peaches can be sold."
"That's what everyone thinks." Zhang Qi nodded and turned around. He fetched two purses and handed one of them to her first: "This is your bonus."
"Divided?" Ding Xuewei was not polite to him.
"Divided, sold less on the first day, earned about 130 taels, more than two taels for a family, and fixed the amount after the second day, six taels for a family, and this amount for the next four days, a total of 34 Twenty or seven dollars."
"These days, the saltpeter has lost nearly ten catties. Originally, we planned to buy it to make up for it, but we couldn't find it after searching all over the city. In the end, we made up the money according to the intention of shopkeeper Wu. According to... what he bought before The price has been made up! And the money for the peach jam has been collected in the village, and there is no share." Speaking of shopkeeper Wu, Zhang Qi expressed gratitude and apology.
It was because they didn't want to delay others for too long that they ended the business so decisively.
"Xuewei, let's not do Xue'er's business, can you turn it over to shopkeeper Wu?" Zhang Qi asked nervously.
They all returned the saltpeter, what else could she say?
Ding Xue nodded slightly, as for shopkeeper Wu's feelings, she naturally didn't need to say anything.
As soon as he saw the broken silver, he knew that he didn't let himself pay for the loss, so Ding Xuewei didn't say anything, and put away the purse with a natural expression.
"This is the money you borrowed earlier." Zhang Qi calmed down and presented the big purse containing the capital. This purse belonged to Ding Xuewei.
No matter how good the idea is, it must have capital, and the one who can take out 2 taels for them to stock up on candy is the little girl in front of her.
She took out the 2 taels without hesitation, and the village dared not insult her with silver. There was not even a penny in the purse.
"The village chief knows you are busy, so let me return the money to you first."
Ding Xuewei was not hypocritical, and counted the bank notes in front of the four members of Zhang's family: "Start making sauce tomorrow?"
"Decided to do it the day after tomorrow." Zhang Qi gave her a self-experienced look.
Ding Xue nodded slightly: "There will be a lot of people tomorrow, and I really need a lot of help."
I cooked a lot of peach jam before, and basically picked everything that had matured at that time.
The weather is hot these days, and the peaches should have ripened faster, but the rest are late-growing fruits. Not only are they oversized, they are not comparable to the first batch, but their maturity is also inferior. After the past few days, they have basically entered the ripening stage , Even if you cook the sauce the day after tomorrow, you have to choose carefully.
If she needs help, Ding Xuewei doesn't need to say it at all. Another reason why she will stop the business so decisively today is that she will receive it in the village tomorrow!
Early the next morning, when she and Zhang's couple arrived in front of the wooden house, almost everyone in the village had arrived.
Seeing that something was wrong, Mrs. Li came to have a look. When she heard that she was going to entertain the squires in the city, she immediately put on her airs and ordered everyone around.
Compared with before, she is no different now, but looking closely at her eyebrows and eyes, one can find that she has shown a little kindness towards Ding Xuewei.
This is to find out that the two daughters-in-law are actually the most unreliable, and come to win her over... Hey~ naive!
When someone showed off the demeanor of being a housewife, Ding Xuewei naturally couldn't be petty and care about others, and let her do what should be handed over to her.
When the first batch of guests arrived, Ding Xuewei followed An He and old man Ding, and the crowd gathered more and more.
After cruising through the high-yield crop area, the crowd gathered in the sweet potato fields.
The five acres of sweet potatoes cut in early March have been excavated, cleaned and weighed.
"How much?" Tang Ming, the magistrate, asked like the official who was in charge of excavating the records.
The officer replied loudly: "My lord, at present, a total of five acres have been excavated, which are 240 four, 670, 430, 93, 96, and finally, 96. This acre has some deficiencies that were excavated before.”
Five acres, and the harvest per acre has exceeded previous expectations.
Not to mention the first time he heard about the production of sweet potatoes, it was the magistrate who already knew it by heart. Ding Xuewei and others were all surprised.
-
"This is impossible!"
-
"how is this possible!"
-
"At least nearly eight thousand!"
-
"Are my ears crossed, I can't hear clearly, how can I hear eight thousand, nine thousand, seven thousand?"
-
"A few thousand catties, not to mention the high ones, is just one penny per catty, which is eight taels of silver. If we can harvest again in spring, even if it is only half, the value of the annual yield per mu will be around 12 taels!"
-
"12 taels, what kind of astronomical figure is this, it's impossible, absolutely impossible, it must be a mistake, it must be a mistake, there can't be so many, absolutely, absolutely impossible!"
After the silent silence, disbelief and suspicion erupted one after another. People who were originally extremely interested in sweet potatoes, a high-yield crop, voiced their doubts.
Daily shout, ask for tickets, ask for collection...
