A leisurely life with Lingquan

Chapter 102 Pickles (5)
"Brother Zhao, Miss Li, you are here." San Ding greeted him enthusiastically, and welcomed him into the house. By the way, he ordered people to weigh the prey and vegetables and calculate the money. The process was very fast.

"Sanding, the king is in charge." Li Xi said.

"My uncle isn't here today, so just tell me if you have anything to do." San Ding is now able to take care of many things that Manager Wang has trained him on his own.

Li Xi rubbed his chin and said, "Shopkeeper Bai is here, I have something to talk to him about." He patted the jar of pickles.

San Ding also noticed the vegetable jar, his eyes lit up when he saw this, he knew that these two were not bad compared to the God of Wealth, he quickly nodded and said: "Wait a minute, I'll call Shopkeeper Bai right away."

Shopkeeper Bai soon followed San Ding, greeted Li Xi and the two politely, and said, "What's the matter, Miss Li?"

Handing over the vegetable jar, Li Xi didn't whet his appetite and said a preface, "I pickled a jar of pickled vegetables in my free time, and I want to let shopkeeper Bai try it."

This tasting is not just a literal meaning. The shopkeeper Bai took a look at the vegetable jar, and finally asked San Ding to bring the bowls and chopsticks: "Miss Li must send it well." It was to keep him in the bottom of his heart.

As soon as the kraft paper sealed on the vegetable jar was opened, the shopkeeper Bai stared at him, and then took a few pieces of pickles in the vegetable jar with chopsticks and tasted them carefully. After a while, he looked at this ordinary pickled vegetable jar. same.

"It tastes good." He praised without hesitation.

Li Xi smiled and she knew it was done: "What do you think, Shopkeeper Bai?"

Shopkeeper Bai was quite embarrassed. It is not easy for an ordinary peasant woman to grow good vegetables. I did not expect that the craftsmanship is also good. Of course, if Li Xi could hear what he thought, she would definitely feel guilty. Yes, but it's not bad to think so.

"I don't know how many jars of pickles there are in Ms. Li's house."

"It's the first time to pickle. I haven't pickled much. There are still three big pots at home that are pickled with cabbage. These are pickled with small green vegetables." Li Xi said
"The taste is the same." Shopkeeper Bai was most concerned about this.

Li Xi shook his head, seeing the change in Shopkeeper Bai's face, he smiled again: "Treasurer Bai is worrying too much, the taste of cabbage and small green vegetables are naturally different, but the good taste is of course the same."

With such a guarantee, shopkeeper Bai relaxed. He looked at the pickle jar and thought for a while, "Such a jar of pickles costs [-] cents a jar. Let's see how the three jars in your family will be priced when the time comes."

"No problem." Li Xi has no objection at all. In fact, the price is high enough. She is the price of a pot. If shopkeeper Bai and the others sell it, a small dish will probably cost four to five cents, more than ten cents. sent.

"The pickled vegetables in the three big altars must be heavier. I'll send the two of you back with a car in three sets?" Shopkeeper Bai is very good at life.

Of course Li Xi would not refuse such a good offer, but she also said that she still needs to buy some things when she arrives in the town. Shopkeeper Bai didn't mind at all and said that she could wait, so she happened to send the things back together.

Li Xi didn't buy anything, and bought a few more jars at the porcelain store, all of which were the ones he bought at the beginning, and he might cooperate with Shopkeeper Bai for a long time in the future. This kind of small jars is better for price negotiation, and later he went to the cloth store again. I want to take some nets back to play, and I also have some purses, which I brought for Grandma Yang. She said she wants to embroider some purses to subsidize the family.

Finally, I bought a few packs of seeds in the grain store. When I was about to leave, I saw someone selling chickens and ducks at a roadside stall. By the way, I bought ten chickens and ducks. She wanted to raise these for a long time. Some time ago I wanted to see if there were any other chicken nests in the village, but I didn't hear any news about it. Fortunately, I went to the town to buy it myself, and it was not bad for the money.

With the big and small bags in hand, they boarded the three-packed carriage. Li Xi was very embarrassed, and there were chickens and ducks, so don't dirty his carriage.

San Ding smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, just come back and wash up."

Wandering all the way back to the village, I met many villagers at the entrance of the village. They greeted each other when they saw the carriage and Li Xi and Zhao Mu on the carriage.

"This is the carriage of Eight Fragrance Restaurant."

"No, here it is again, and Li Xi and the others are sent back. It seems that they really take it seriously."

"Big business must have made a lot of money for Baxiang Restaurant."

"That's right, we don't have such a good life."

The voices of envy from the villagers came from afar, and Li Xi could only smile helplessly.

After looking at the three big jars of cabbage and three dings at home, they opened it and tasted the taste, and finally decided: "What do you think of Miss Li, a jar of [-] Wen?"

It should be that shopkeeper Bai gave Sanding instructions before leaving, otherwise he would not be able to be the master, the price is also very good, the big jar is actually not much bigger than the small jar, nodded with satisfaction Li Xi watched as Sanding was about to count the money He said: "One hundred Wen is enough, and the remaining jar should be given to Mr. Huai to taste, thank you for taking care of me."

"How embarrassing." Sanding scratched his head and smiled.

"What's so embarrassing, I need you to take care of me in the future." She understands human relations very well.

In the end, San Ding declined but took the jar of pickles he had given him and left with a smile.

Looking at the more than 100 Wen in his pocket, plus the ten taels that were not spent last time, looking up at his old house, Li Xi felt that the way to save money was still very far away, and getting rich was really not that easy.

The three acres of land in the back room are still being fertilized. Recently, when the house was idle, Li Xi and Zhao Mu worked in the yard and built a kennel for Ah Hei, but now it is not too small to live outside, and it is still inside the house Sleeping, the rest cut wood on the mountain and repaired the dilapidated poultry cages before, so I thought about raising chickens and ducks.

Seeing the chirping and crisp calls of the fluffy groups in the chicken coop, Li Xi grabbed two handfuls of green vegetables from the basket and sprinkled them in. Watching them eat happily, he added spirit spring water to the water basin next to them, raising them carefully. It will be out of the cage in a few months. Apart from some effort to raise these little things, it is almost a cost-free business.

Next to the vegetable garden, Li Xi asked Zhao Mu to open up a large piece of land. This is not for growing vegetables but for pasture. There is a pack of pasture seeds in the seeds bought today. After all, it is too wasteful to feed chickens and ducks with rice grains, and she also feels distressed. Ah, so I plan to use the spiritual spring water to raise good pastures, and then I will feed these little creatures to be fat. Sometimes, I can add some rice bran on the pastures to feed them.

"Sister Xi'er." Mrs. Wang came to the door with a vegetable basket on her shoulders, but this time her basket was full, so it seemed that she was not here to pick vegetables.

Li Xi looked away from the chicks: "Sister-in-law."

"The carriage you left just now belongs to Baxiang Restaurant." Wang said enviously, "It seems that you and the restaurant have a good business."

I'm tired of hearing gossip these days. I'm really tired of others talking about it all the time. Li Xi smiled lightly: "It's okay."
