Chapter 205 [205] Selling Tofu Brain (3000)

In the capital city in the 70s, if you wanted to do business, you would naturally have to be within the third ring road. Places like Wudaokou were a bit remote. If it weren’t for the university, people wouldn’t come here, especially since it hasn’t developed yet. , even more unsuitable for business.

Therefore, as soon as the old man opened his mouth, Zhuo Lin knew what it meant: "To rent a house, you must rent a house, but when we look back at the place where we look at the shop, we also want to choose the vicinity of Wangfujing, or commercial streets such as Nanluoguxiang. If you want to find a house, you must I even gave up looking for the shop and the place where I lived.”

If you can buy a suitable place to live, with her family savings, it should be enough to buy a single room like the one she lives in now. Buying a single room is better than renting a house, especially at any time when the area is dark and the hat of a foreigner , it is difficult to completely abandon it, so buying a house makes them feel more justified than renting a house.

As for the specific question, she habitually wanted to discuss it with Tao Yi, who seemed to her to have great powers, because Tao Yi was reborn from the capital and had a certain background. She is an outsider with black eyes.

Originally, the old man was thinking of freeing up the east wing of the house for them, but now that Zhuo Lin said that he was going to look inside the third ring road, he could only keep his mouth shut.

After dinner, Zhuo Lin started to tidy up her den. She didn’t come back for a holiday, and she still had a lot of dust. She wiped it inside and out, and it was almost eight or nine o’clock. After washing, she felt comfortable. Lying on his little bed, looking at the tidy hut, he feels comfortable all over.

No wonder everyone envies the single life, there are no old people, children make you worry, when one person is full and the whole family is not hungry, it is probably the happiest and most comfortable period, so she has to take advantage of this time to work hard to earn money ,Do what you want to do.

The school has not started yet, and there are basically no people around. Selling cakes is definitely not good. Let’s make tofu. The guy is not enough. She is too tired to do it by herself. It is also immeasurable. If they eat at home, there is absolutely no problem, but if they rely on this for their livelihood, it will be too difficult.

In the end, Zhuo Lin decided to sell tofu nao. Tofu nao is not tofu. It only needs to be filtered, boiled, and added with brine to solidify. She can make it whether it is sweet or salty, so she rode a I went to the wholesale market with my tricycle, and bought an insulated barrel, a large iron pot, a medium-sized grinding plate with filtered gauze, etc., and it cost about ten yuan in total. The car was crushed, and she even asked someone to spend [-] cents to take her home.

The small grinding disc is not strong enough, so she bought a medium-sized grinding disc with a diameter of seventy to eighty centimeters.

After cleaning the millstone, and during the drying time, I went to the vegetable market and bought fifty catties of soybeans. At this time, soybeans cost eight cents a catty, and fifty catties cost four yuan.

Soak one catty of beans in six catties of water, remove one catty of bean dregs after grinding the tofu brain, and there are six catties left!One catty can produce three bowls of brains.

Calculated in this way, a catty of beans can produce 20 bowls of tofu nao, and the thermos she bought can probably produce 160 or [-] bowls, which is eight catties of beans. Counting to one yuan and fifty cents, she plans to sell these [-] bowls like this, without adding anything, a bowl of three cents, a bowl of sweet ones for six cents, a bowl of salty ones for four cents, according to the northern characteristics, I like salty ones There should be more people, but children like sweet ones.

Sugar tickets are needed to buy sugar. Anyone who is short of supplies will use tickets to limit the quantity. Although they can be bought at high prices, the cost is too high. Although she can grow beets herself, the production process is too cumbersome, so she can’t for the time being. The only way to do it is to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy sugar. She has a national sugar coupon in her hand, which was given to her by her brothers. No one in the whole family has it, but she has it. She probably really thinks that girls love it. Sugar, it's time to come in handy.

According to people's consumption ability nowadays, she is sure that the sweet ones cannot be sold, so she only prepares a pound of candy, even if it sells for six cents, she will give them a spoonful of candy. Sell.

After planning, I started to use celery and soybeans to make marinade. By the way, I also bought chili oil, sesame seeds, peanuts, aniseed, etc., and added a lot of auxiliary materials. It has become a magic weapon to tempt people with salty tofu.

She prepared two kinds of salty marinade, one is the traditional celery soybean, the other is the blended chili sauce and sesame sauce, and she will also prepare some green onions and coriander that she produced by herself, cut into pieces, and sprinkle if needed Some, to increase the taste.

On the seventh day of the seventh day, she was busy from morning to night, picking beans and soaking them. On the morning of the eighth day, she started to work. She kept tossing and tossing until eight o'clock in the morning, and finally made a big bucket of tofu. Signboard, left a small pot with the old couple, then rode a tricycle and started selling along the street, because there was no way to earn money from students, so they went to earn money from ordinary people nearby.

She was beautiful and had a bright voice, but she couldn't yell at first, but then she got thick-skinned, so she yelled at the top of her voice regardless.

"Tofu is hot. The salty ones cost four cents a bowl. Come out with a bowl and try it. If it doesn't taste good, you don't need money!"

She prepares a bowl by herself, which is a small enamel bowl used by ordinary people at home. Whoever wants to taste it will serve it out, put some ingredients, and then pour it into their own bowl. Not to mention, this method is really not bad , everyone who tasted it said it tasted good, and bought it very happily. She is also generous, and will add an extra shovel to others, so that people feel that the four cents are worth the money and can feed the children. .

But when I come across someone who likes to take advantage, I'll give it a try, and what's more, Zhuo Lin is not used to these people's faults.

"Ma'am, there are only so many tastings. If you think it's delicious, then please pay for it. If you don't think it's delicious, you don't have to buy it,"

"Hey, you girl, why are you so stingy, I didn't taste it, can't I try it again?"

"Ma'am, I gave you a shovel just now, it's not one mouthful, it's a lot, if you can't taste it after so many mouthfuls, then don't taste it,"

"How do you talk? Can you do business? If everyone is like you,"

"Ma'am, if you came here with the idea of ​​taking advantage, I'm not happy to do business with you. I don't know how to do business. That's how I am. If I want to sell something and be angry with you, then I'd rather not sell it." , As for other customers, I will send another shovel after they buy it, that is my willingness, but you, I am not willing, and I will not be willing to deal with you in the future, please go slowly, thank you."

Because a few cents made her angry, she didn't seem to be that cheap. The customer is God, so she scored!
"What you said is really ugly. What else do you buy? Just like her, can the food you make be edible? Don't poison the inside!"

Zhuo Lin smiled and looked at her neighbors: "Do you want more? If you don't want it, I will leave and open the door to do business. Who doesn't know that harmony makes money, but how much can I earn from this bowl? Looking at the face of a person like her, I would rather not sell it, after all, I have backbone!"

Seeing people looking at each other without speaking, Zhuo Lin was not annoyed, she just packed up her things and was about to leave on a tricycle.

"Hey, don't go. I want a bowl. I tasted it. It tastes good. I want a salty one. Have a bowl. Do you come every day?"

Zhuo Lin smiled and gave it to others: "Not necessarily, I am a student, it's not that the school is not open, I want to earn some living expenses for myself, our family makes tofu, I am not good at making tofu, so I can only make some Tofu nao sells, if it’s a weekend, I might sell cakes at the school, tofu nao is worth watching, I make it when I’m free, and I don’t do it when I’m not free.”

"Just brag about it. You are still a student. Whose student makes tofu nao by himself? It's as if you live by yourself."

The aunt was not convinced, she was still rolling her eyes!

"Ma'am, you're right. I live by myself. My family is from Henan Province. I'm a foreigner. For my comfort, I bought a house for me behind the school. I was just thinking about it." I haven’t started school yet, so come here first to earn living expenses. My family is relatively independent, so I sell this bowl of tofu nao to everyone, but I won’t sell it to you, because we scholars have integrity! We would rather bend than bend, understand? "

Although Zhuo Lin said it with a smile, it's just that there is no warmth in her eyes.

"Hey, after talking for a long time, I'm still a foreigner, from southern Henan Province, right? The people there are the worst, the poor are dying, and they came to our capital to earn a living?..."

In her previous life, Zhuo Lin has seen the crimes of regional blackness, especially in southern Henan Province, as if you didn’t do anything, but because of some rat droppings, the whole pot of porridge was ruined, so wherever you go, people scold them for being in southern Henan Province Man, I feel aggrieved when I hear it.

No, the old lady seemed to have found a reason to blackmail herself. She stood near her car with her waist down, pointing and cursing, but Zhuo Lin ignored her. After packing up his things, he looked up at the old lady with contempt in his eyes.

"Auntie, no matter how bad we people in southern Henan are, we won't stand here like shrews to slander and abuse others. Why are you from the capital? So what if I'm from a foreign place? Is it because I'm from a foreign place that I can't live?" I should listen to your superior argument? What kind of nonsense are you talking about? Also, I am not the cat or dog you say. I am a freshman at Huaqing University this year. I was the top student in the national college entrance examination last year. Why are your grandchildren better than me? What are you clamoring for here? Am I proud? I am not from the capital now, and I will not be in the future? What's more, we have already bought a house here and settled down here. We have what you have. What right do you have to deny it here? us?"

Zhuo Lin put down these words, didn't bother to look at her, got on the bike and left. From a distance, she could hear the people standing there in a daze, and they kept saying negative words such as 'bragging' and 'nonsense'...

She pulled her lips in disdain. Some people are like this. They neither want to admit that they are inferior to others, nor do they want to admit the excellence of others. Is it interesting to compare your own strengths with others' weaknesses?
