There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 149 A Big Way to Make Money (Part [-])
Cai shopkeeper's eyes lit up immediately when he saw two hares in a cage.

Seeing the half-bucket of shrimps and eels again, shopkeeper Cai's brows immediately flew up.

As for the wild duck and the thick and long black-tailed snake, they were both what he wanted.

The group of people who came today seemed to be from the official family, and they were generous in their offerings, and the dishes were all expensive.

He's about to make a fortune.

"Business manager Cai's business is very good today. There are quite a few people sitting early in the morning." Li Jiaoniang said with a smile.

When talking about business again, Luo Cheng always listened to Li Jiaoniang and never talked too much.

However, he did not stay idle, but watched the people eating and the carriages and horses with vigilant eyes, listening to their conversations.

Shopkeeper Cai was very proud when he heard Li Jiaoniang's praise, but he still said modest words, "Oh, Mrs. Li, if you came to the market when you were not going to the market, you wouldn't say that, you don't go to the market During the day, I was here from morning to night, only mosquitoes came, but no one was seen."

It means that my business is not good, so don't exaggerate the price of the goods, I will lose money to death.

Li Jiaoniang heard too many false self-effacing words from businessmen, so she just smiled and didn't follow suit.

She took a piece of paper from the old cloth bag she carried on her shoulders and handed it to shopkeeper Cai, "This is today's goods, we weighed them, the big gray rabbit weighs five and a half catties, and the little gray rabbit weighs four catties and three taels. The snake weighs one catty and nine taels. Two rice field eels add up to three catties and six taels. The total weight of these shrimps is seven catties and nine taels. The wild duck weighs two catties. I also wrote the price on it."

The price she quoted was lower than the retail price.

Shopkeeper Cai bought a lot, so he had to make some money, otherwise, he would go to the market to buy it, or go to another place to buy it.

The consumption in the tavern is limited, and if I buy too much from other places, I naturally don't want her.

But if the goods are delivered to the door and the price is even more favorable, he will not go to another store, because she also has a killer weapon, five-spice powder seasoning.

Shopkeeper Cai took the note in his hand, and after reading it for a while, he frowned, "Why do you want so much money? 580 Bawen? Can I earn it back today?"

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "Oh, there are so many people in your tavern today, how can you not earn back? You can earn back from one table. Besides, after these dishes are made into dishes, the price is even higher. And wow, Look at this number, how auspicious it is! Five eight eight. I'll make a fortune! Fafa, every day."

Businessmen love to hear auspicious words.

Li Jiaoniang praised a few words, and shopkeeper Cai would post a few praises, and shopkeeper Cai's face immediately smiled.

"Can it be cheaper? This... This is too much. I am worried that I bought too much. There will be no customers in the afternoon. Is this not a waste of money? The wild ducks, hares and snakes can be kept for a few days, but the shrimp and eels , but they can’t be stored for a long time, and they won’t live long without water.” Shopkeeper Cai began to sell miserably again.

"The shopkeeper's house has two passers-by, right?" Li Jiaoniang suddenly changed the subject.

It's not a secret, Shopkeeper Cai nodded, "Yes, he said he came from Chuzhou to look for someone who was lost at home, and he has lived here for three days."

"Those two are the owners of a rich family, so don't be stingy, just give them good dishes, and tell them which dish will nourish your body, and the elder will definitely pay for it generously."

Shopkeeper Cai blinked, "Is this useful?"

Li Jiaoniang nodded, "Don't worry, my family has relatives in Chuzhou Prefecture. Those native Chuzhou people are the most proud and arrogant, and never look down on people outside the prefecture. If you say, where are you?" The food is expensive, and I deliberately said that he might not be able to afford it, and the other party will definitely order boldly, throw money at the shopkeeper Cai, and remind the shopkeeper Cai not to underestimate him."

Shopkeeper Cai laughed, "I like that he throws money at me every day."

"Then why don't you take my goods quickly, and quickly cook some good dishes to send? In addition, I will teach you how to make snake soup. The rich people in the city like to eat this." Li Jiaoniang started again flicker.

Luo Cheng twitched his lips.

When it came to receiving the goods, shopkeeper Cai hesitated again, "Can it be cheaper?"

"Well, we're old acquaintances anyway, so I'll let it go, and add a packet of five-spice powder, and the total will be [-] Wen." Li Jiaoniang said, "The amount of five-spice powder is the same as last time."

With the money for five-spice powder, the total is 610 Bawen.

She erased the odds.

Shopkeeper Cai has been secretly pinching his fingers, thinking about how to lower the price with Li Jiaoniang.

Suddenly hearing Li Jiaoniang's offer of eighteen coins, her eyes lit up.

But he still pretended to be embarrassed, "Okay, then I will accept it."

"That's great." Li Jiaoniang said with a smile.

Shopkeeper Cai called the waiter, and moved the things into the back kitchen through the back door, and Li Jiaoniang told him how to make snake soup.

The solution is not difficult, the shopkeeper took it down.

There were too many men eating in the room, Luo Cheng refused to let Li Jiaoniang in, so he followed shopkeeper Cai to the counter to receive the payment.

After walking out, Luo Cheng immediately put a bunch of money in Li Jiaoniang's backpack, "Take it."

"Why did you give it all to me again? Don't you keep some?" Li Jiaoniang laughed.

"I have no place to spend money." Luo Cheng replied honestly.

"How is it possible? Just say it politely." Li Jiaoniang smiled. She untied the string of money, grabbed two and put them in Luo Cheng's pocket, "Take it, my man's pocket, how can there be no What about the money? Buy what you like, right?"

Luo Cheng thought about it and accepted it.

Although Li Jiaoniang came from a noble family, she likes to save as much as the girls in the village. Her bronze mirror is old, the teeth of her comb are broken, and she doesn't have a hair tie. She only makes her shoes, not her own. Everything is saved Save again.

Persuading her to buy it, she always said it could be used for a while longer.

Luo Cheng thought, she is reluctant to buy it, so let him buy it.

No matter how poor he is, he won't be able to wrong her even with these little things.

"Okay, I accept it." Luo Cheng nodded.

He led the donkey by the rope and walked to the market.

There were quite a few stalls there, selling all kinds of things. He looked to see if there were any women's products for sale, so that he could sell some back.

At this time, Li Jiaoniang called to him, "Wait a minute, Brother Luo Cheng."

Luo Cheng stopped in his tracks, "What's the matter? Jiao Niang?"

Li Jiaoniang was watching two middle-aged men eating in front of Caiji Tavern.

"What's the matter with them?" Luo Cheng narrowed his eyes and looked at the two of them.

Those two were talking about granite, tree root carvings.

After listening for a while, Li Jiaoniang said, "Let's go, Brother Luo Cheng."

"Okay." Luo Cheng got into the donkey cart and drove the cart away.

However, curious in his heart, he still asked, "Jiao Niang, what's wrong with those two people just now?"

"What those two said reminded me that we have an excellent way to make a fortune." Li Jiaoniang said with a smile.

"What they are talking about is just stones and tree roots. What kind of way to get rich is this?" Luo Cheng was puzzled.

Li Jiaoniang said with a smile, "They are from the official family, and they are ordered to search for strange rocks and strange trees everywhere. As for the roots of stones and trees, we can always find one or two on the back mountain. If you find one or two, send them up. The rewards I get start with at least fifty guan. If I find two things, our debt can be paid off. Hehe."

She smiled and said, but she was cursing in her heart, the bastard emperor who wastes people and money, has the ability to fight gold soldiers, and go to recover Luoyang and Kaifeng.

If you play tricks with strange rocks and strange trees, you will not be called a holy king by future generations!

Luo Cheng didn't understand rocks and tree roots. Seeing that Jiao Niang spoke clearly and logically, he didn't refute her interest, nodded and said, "That's really a way to get rich. When I go into the mountains, pay more attention."

"Okay, if you see it, tell me right away." Li Jiaoniang smiled.

While the two were talking, the donkey cart had already driven into the lively market.

Today is a small market. There are not many people on the street, but there are not many people. In front of each stall, there are more or less people asking the price of the goods.

There was no more rice at home, so Li Jiaoniang bought fifty catties, some lamp oil and vegetable oil, salt, and white flour.

Luo Cheng parked the donkey cart in a shaded place under a big tree, and said to Li Jiaoniang, "The sun is rising and it's very hot, you wait here for me, I'll go shopping and go home. "

When the donkey cart is driving fast, it doesn't feel too hot when there is a cool breeze, but how can you drive a cart on the street?
Had to stop and go.

Li Jiaoniang's fair face was already hot pink, and sweat dripped down to her chin.

Li Jiaoniang really couldn't bear to go shopping in the sun.

She hated the heel-length thick cloth skirts in ancient times.

Luo Cheng suggested to tell her to wait, and she immediately agreed, "Alright, you should come back soon."

On the street, walking is easier than driving.

Because people can walk in the shade under the eaves, but cars can only walk in the middle of the road to bask in the sun.

After Luo Cheng left, Li Jiaoniang took off her bamboo hat and used it as a fan to bask in the wind.

At the same time, she admired the street scene of the bazaar and observed how people did business.

At this time, someone came up to her and said, "Hey, isn't this the lady of Luo Cheng's family? Why are you here alone?"

The voice was unfamiliar, and Li Jiaoniang hurriedly turned her head to look.
