Chapter 390 Will Butter Be Expensive?

"I..." Shen Qing stammered, not knowing how to explain, and stammered: "When my mother was alive, he took me out to play, and once I saw children on the street playing house wine , I just took one more look, and then I remembered it!" The words were not convincing at all.

Mrs. Lu didn't go into it, she just asked casually just now, "Then I, Qing'er, are so smart that I can draw inferences from one instance to another. Mother is not as good as you! What is this called? The waves behind the Yangtze River drive the waves ahead, and one wave is stronger than the other! Mother , may be really old!"

"Mother, why are you talking nonsense? You are so young and beautiful! Think about the women in our village who are about your age, are they as beautiful and young as you?" Shen Qing coaxed Lu Shi.

Mrs. Lu pinched Shen Qing's little face: "Qing'er, your little mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter, and the mother who said it makes me so happy!"

"That's the way it is, and I'm not wrong!" Shen Qing said seriously.

For a moment.

They took the drawings and went out the door.

They are not so familiar with Fucheng as newcomers, so they went to find the blacksmith's shop while inquiring.Fortunately, there is an iron shop on a street above the vegetable market. The business of this shop is good, the quality is very good, and no sub-iron will be imported into it.

It's just that the price of iron is a little expensive. The boilers they want to make need a lot of iron, and a catty of iron costs two taels of silver.

The owner of the iron shop looked at the blueprint and said, "Are you sure you want to make it? This boiler will cost at least 60 taels of silver!"

Then you need thirty catties of iron!

too expensive!
"Mom, why don't you forget it? It's too expensive!" The family spent a lot of money these days, and there must be 100 taels of silver.If such unrestrained spending continues, the family property will soon be empty.

The Lu family also knows this truth, but they rely on Yunwen and his brothers to work hard to earn money, and Yunjing's Shuxiu is not enough, how can they make a living in Fucheng? !

Gritting his teeth, Lu said to the owner of the iron shop: "Boss, let's fight! You must strictly follow the drawings, and you will definitely not lose a cent of the money."

"Happy, if this is the case, then give 40 taels of silver as a deposit first!" He didn't dare to take the job without the deposit, what if the things were finished and people ran away?

Mrs. Lu knew that the price of iron was very expensive, and he knew it when he bought a hoe before.A hoe is worth a tael of silver.

So when you go out, you bring extra silver, and you can give a deposit.

After paying the deposit, the boss said that it will take about seven days to complete, because it is the first time to make such a boiler.Just let them come and pick it up in seven days!
Shen Qing and Lu's went home, and when they returned home, Lu's began to prepare the recipe for Chuan Chuanxiang.

Whether Chuan Chuan Xiang can be popular or not depends on the recipe.She has to research it out quickly, and can't just sit and eat.

According to Shen Qing, Lu's tried it over and over again, and the taste was much better every time, but it was still a bit worse.

"Qing'er? Is it okay to use rapeseed oil or lard? Can I replace it with butter or suet? The formula is correct, but the rapeseed oil and lard give me the feeling that it is not so perfect. If we Would it be better to replace the oil with butter and suet?!"

"Sheep oil? Will there be a smell?" Shen Qing tilted his head and looked at Lu Shi.

"There must be a little bit. With so many ingredients pressed, it shouldn't be very heavy! If you are afraid of strong smell, let's buy butter!" Lu said.

Shen Qing puffed his mouth: "Mother, beef is more expensive than pork, so is butter also very expensive?"
