Chapter 146 Yuba Bean Sprouts Are Ready

Eight taels of silver, which exceeded Qiao Mai's expectations.

All the copper plates and silver pieces in her hands add up to less than 40 taels, and now she needs to spend eight taels of silver to buy a sheep that is only used for milking...

She was a little bit reluctant.

The past few days have been full of fish and meat. The family has [-] acres of land and claims to be the richest man in Anping Village.

But now, she is even reluctant to buy a sheep worth eight taels of silver...

Qiao Mai once again had a deep understanding of his own poverty, and the sense of urgency returned before.

"This... shall we buy it after we harvest the wheat?" She asked Qiao Changshun for his opinion.

As for the [-] mu of wheat, except those who pay the tax, they keep their own food, and the rest can be sold.

"Okay." Qiao Changshun had no objection, he could estimate the money in Qiao Maimai's hands, and he was reluctant to spend eight taels of silver on a sheep.

Both of them were reluctant, so naturally they didn't buy it.

Qiao Mai and Qiao Dami explained, and Qiao Dami nodded understandingly, "I'll buy it later!"

I can't eat milk steamed buns for the time being, but it doesn't matter, I will definitely be able to eat them in the future!

So the family of three left Bailu Town, and when they got home, Qiao Changshun took Qiao Dami to wander in the wheat field, while Qiao Xiaomai made bean curd sticks at home.

She soaked soybeans yesterday, and they are ready to use now.

Grind the soybeans first, then pour them into the pot and start cooking. When the soy milk is almost boiling, turn off the heat. After a while, the soy milk in the pot gradually solidifies, and a piece of bean skin appears on the top.

Take out the bean skin and put it in the sun to dry. After drying, it becomes yuba.

This is a troublesome job. After a piece of bean curd has solidified, she needs to heat the soy milk, then turn off the heat, and wait for it to congeal. After the bean curd is curd, she will dry out the bean skin and continue to reheat it until the soy milk in the pot is used up.

This job has no technical content, but it is really cumbersome.

It is precisely because of this that the price of bean curd sticks has always been quite high, especially this kind of handmade ones, which can be sold for dozens of yuan per catty in future generations.

For three days in a row, Qiao Xiaomai had been concentrating on making bean curd sticks, and the bean curd sticks needed to be dried in the sun. Therefore, when she needed to go to Zuixianlou to pick up chicken feet, Qiao Maimai could only bring the three catties of bean curd sticks she made on the first day.

But her bean sprouts are finally ready to be sold.

These days, her room and Qiao Changshun's room were filled with bean sprout wooden boxes. This time she went to town, she brought a total of [-] catties.

The rest, she plans to sell in the village.

When he arrived in the town, Qiao Xiaomai went to Zuixian Tower first.

After taking more than 500 chicken feet, ten chickens and ten ducks, Qiao Xiaomai laid out the yuba and fifty catties of bean sprouts.

"Shopkeeper, these bean sprouts cost two cents a catty, you can ask the chef to fry them."

"This is bean curd stick, one tael of silver per catty. It needs to be soaked in water first, but it tastes very good."

Shopkeeper Zhou stroked his beard, his eyes turned back and forth on these two foods.

A penny is a catty.

One tael of silver is one catty.

This difference is too big.

"Why...the price difference is so big?" Shopkeeper Zhou asked.

"Because one is easy and the other is troublesome."

Moreover, neither of them has any technical content.

Ordinary people may not have the patience to study it, but people like Zuixianlou Jiweiju are definitely interested in studying it.

Especially yuba, this is actually very simple, if one day people from Zuixianlou and Jiweiju accidentally make it, then she won't be able to sell it for money.

So, taking advantage of the only one now, she can earn as much as she can.

 Ask for a ticket, ask for a ticket~!I decided, starting tomorrow, to be a regular updater...
