The splendid life of a small peasant girl

Chapter 114 Grapefruit Tea

Seeing that there were many people picking pomelo on the mountain, Yao Yu simply went back to the kitchen to concentrate on making pomelo tea and pomelo peel sugar. The demand is not very large for the time being, so Yao Yu opened a separate room and put both grapefruit tea and pomelo peel sugar in it. In less than three days, the grapefruit tea filled the entire room, and Yao Yu had to open another one. Room.

"Mom, mom." Xiao Ruirui ran out of the room with short legs.

"Good boy, Ruirui." Yao Yu picked up Xiao Ruirui. It is much easier for a child to pronounce mother than mother, so Yao Yu has been teaching Xiao Ruirui to call her mother and Xie Zhimo's father.Xie Zhimo didn't know what father meant at first, but after hearing Yao Yu's explanation, every time Xiao Ruirui called her father, he was overjoyed.

Xiao Ruirui was picked up by Yao Yu, and said childishly, "No, hug, let's go."

"Xiao Ruirui wants to go by herself." Yao Yu asked.

Xiao Ruirui nodded, and Yao Yu put Xiao Ruirui on the ground, "Then you go."

Little Ruirui just learned to walk, and sometimes she would fall if she walked too fast. Yao Yu thought it would be fine as long as she didn't kowtow, so she didn't take care of it. Aunt Jiang was frightened watching from the sidelines. After saying hello, I ran to Nuoer again.

Seeing Xiao Ruirui push the door in, Nuo'er smiled and said, "Brother, you are here."

Xiao Ruirui nodded, and shouted nonchalantly, "Many, many."

"It's brother." Xiao Ruirui didn't speak very clearly, so he kept calling Nuoer Duoduo, but even so, Nuoer patiently corrected Xiao Ruirui every time.

"Many, many." Xiao Ruirui learned seriously.

Nuo'er helped her forehead. It seemed that in a short time, she couldn't hear Xiao Ruirui calling her brother. Nuo'er patted the stool next to her, "Brother, come and read."

Of course, Xiao Ruirui can't read books, but just pretends to sit next to Nuoer, flipping through the book like Nuoer, pretending that he can understand it, Mr. Ji thinks that this can cultivate Xiao Ruirui's future reading skills I'm used to it, so I don't interfere too much.

Everyone processed all the grapefruits on the mountain day and night, and it was already a month later. Seeing that it was about to enter the twelfth lunar month, and the shop would not be open for too long, Yao Yu sealed all the grapefruit tea altars and went to Jiang state.

The sales of citron tea are pretty good. After tasting it, most people are willing to buy a jug and take it home to drink slowly. Some people think that a jug is too much and they can’t finish it in a while, so they choose to buy it in the store every day. Drink a bowl of grapefruit tea.The grapefruit tea sold alone plus the jars of grapefruit tea sold one by one can be calculated to sell about ten jars a day, and there are quite a few in Yao Yu's house, so I don't worry about not selling enough for a while.

After a busy afternoon, Yao Yu, Aunt Wu and the others finished packing and were about to lock the door when shopkeeper Ren came over anxiously. After seeing Yao Yu, he seemed relieved and hurriedly said, "Miss Yao."

"Treasurer Ren." Yao Yu replied politely.

Shopkeeper Ren breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "Miss Yao, it's like this, our boss has something to ask you for, I wonder if it's convenient today?"

Since Aunt Wu, Wang Fengzhen and others were on the side, shopkeeper Ren said it was his boss, but Yao Yu knew that this boss was the eldest son of the Zhao family.

Yao Yu was a little curious, what Zhao Wensheng wanted from him, "I'm free."

Seeing that Yao Yu was busy, Aunt Wu went back to Shuangshui Village first.

Shopkeeper Ren took Yao Yu to Bazhenfang directly, "This way please." After entering Bazhenfang, shopkeeper Ren walked a step in front of Yao Yu, so that it was convenient to lead the way.

Yao Yu followed shopkeeper Ren to the third floor, only to find that there was a small wing room on the third floor of Bazhenfang. After opening the door, Yao Yu was even more surprised by the layout inside. The word exquisite.

A handsome man was sitting in the middle of the room at the moment. After seeing Yao Yu, he looked calm and parted his red lips, "Miss Yao, please sit down."

When Yao Yu saw this man, he suddenly laughed. This is not the handsome man he met outside the Manchuan Inn, "Young Master Zhao, I have known you for a long time."

Ordinary heroines will show shyness after seeing Zhao Wensheng's appearance, but Yao Yu is sitting opposite Zhao Wensheng in a generous way, which makes Zhao Wensheng a little surprised, "Speaking of which, you and I cooperate so well For a long time, this is the first time we can sit down and talk."

Yao Yu took the tea made by Zhao Wensheng, took a sip, and then said, "I don't know what Mr. Zhao wants to discuss with me today?"

Zhao Wensheng put down his teacup and said, "I won't make any detours. We want to buy the pomelo tea that Yao launched earlier." The pomelo tea tastes good and is easy to brew. Most importantly, there are elderly people in his family who like it.

Yao Yu noticed that what Zhao Wensheng was talking about was buying, not buying the recipe for grapefruit tea. Yao Yu didn't speak, waiting for Zhao Wensheng to continue to explain.

Zhao Wensheng naturally noticed Yao Yu's doubts, but seeing that Yao Yu didn't ask, he sighed in his heart that the lady could hold her breath. After a while, Zhao Wensheng continued, "I originally wanted to buy grapefruit tea. It’s my son’s, but I heard from Shopkeeper Nie that there are grapefruit trees all over the mountain behind Yao’s house.”

That is to say, even if Fang Zi was purchased, the pomelo still had to be bought from Yao Yu, so what Zhao Wensheng wanted was to buy, so that both of them could benefit from each other. Yao Yu said with a smile, "Young Master Zhao is thoughtful." .”

Seeing that Yao Yu understood what he said, Zhao Wensheng said again, "Your selling price is four taels of silver per jar, and we at Bazhenfang can buy it at the price of five taels of silver per jar."

Of course Yao Yu knew that even if it cost five taels of silver to buy grapefruit tea, Bazhenfang could make a lot of money, and this time, Zhao Wensheng deliberately raised the price of grapefruit tea, which is kind of honest. Yes, Yao Yu didn't answer directly, but asked, "After the acquisition of Bazhenfang, can our shop continue to sell grapefruit tea?"

"Of course you can," Zhao Wensheng said.

After all, grapefruit tea is suitable for women. If it can’t be sold anymore, Yao Yu’s shop will have to rethink new dishes. It is sold bowl by bowl, and the yuzu tea in the jar will definitely not be sold again. After all, which is better for four taels of silver or five taels of silver, even a three-year-old child knows.

In addition, continuing to sell grapefruit tea in Yaoyu's store is undoubtedly not a way to help Bazhenfang promote it, and if some people want to buy it home, they have to go to Bazhenfang. Zhao Wensheng's favor is really good.

"Since Mr. Zhao is so forthright, I won't make any detours. I agree to sell the grapefruit tea to Bazhenfang." Yao Yu said.

Zhao Wensheng nodded. This lady Yao is a transparent person. It would be even better if she was a man. "By the way, why don't you sell me all your pomelo peel candies as well."

"Okay." Although the pomelo peel candy has been stored for a long time, there are only a few people who come to buy the candy from the store, so it's okay to sell it to Bazhenfang.

"Just according to the price you sell, three papers for one." After speaking, Zhao Wensheng put the agreement in front of Yao Yu.

Yao Yu read it once, and then pressed his fingerprints. Zhao Wensheng picked up his own seal and stamped it, and then handed Yao Yu a copy.

Yao Yu said, "Tomorrow I will bring you grapefruit tea."

Zhao Wensheng smiled and said, "Don't worry."

On the second day, three carriages drove together to the gate of Bazhenfang, and the passing crowd saw people moving jars from the carriages to Bazhenfang, but they didn't know what was in the jar.

"Isn't Bazhenfang going to put new things on the shelves?"

"It seems so."

"I really want to know what's in this jar."

"Don't worry, it will probably take a few days to find out."

Unexpectedly, in such a short while, the news that Bazhenfang was going to put new products on the shelves spread. Yao Yu once again lamented that he must make his own brand in any business, not only the people believe it, but also when promoting Can save a lot of manpower and financial resources.

Bazhenfang did not disappoint the public. In just seven days, it launched a new product - grapefruit tea, which was packed in a beautiful white porcelain jar, sealed with kraft paper and tied with a red string. , a small wooden spoon is tied to the other end of the red string. A small pot weighs only one catty, but the selling price is two taels of silver.

At the same time, Bazhenfang also put pomelo peel candies on the shelves, and sold them for five pennies each. This price is relatively low in Bazhenfang, so in one noon, Bazhenfang had already sold more than half of a box of pomelo peel candies.

In Yao's store, ten pots of grapefruit tea were sold out in the morning, which was fifty catties, but in Bazhenfang, dozens of cans of grapefruit tea have been sold in a short time, so that's fine. Looking at the queue at the back, Yao Yu knew that if Bazhenfang sells grapefruit tea, it is possible to sell hundreds or even thousands of catties in a day.

There is still a lot of pomelo tea at home, but once all the pomelo tea is used up, it means that this year will be gone. Yao Yu looked at the tree on the back mountain without a pomelo, and sighed, if only the pomelo could continue to bloom and bear fruit Enough.

Because the citron tea was so popular, even though Yao Yu sent three carriages of citron tea every day, the supply was still in short supply. Xie Zhimo and Yao Chang had to transport the citron tea all day long. Unexpectedly, in just five days, all the grapefruit tea in the room was taken away.

Xie Zhimo moved the last pot of grapefruit tea to the carriage, and said with some melancholy, "Second brother, do you think there are places selling grapefruit around here?"

Yao Chang shook his head, "We bought all the pomelo trees around here. In addition, the grapefruit season was only last month, and even if we go to harvest it now, they are all ripe." Ripe grapefruit peels must not If you use it, the taste will be much worse.
