Queen of Nongmen: Hexagrams determine the universe

Chapter 20 Sour Plum Soup

Ye Qiongdan showed a satisfied smile while carrying the big bag of copper coins.

Among the bustling crowd, on the ancient pier, she stood under a green willow tree, dressed in plain clothes, she was obviously just an inconspicuous little girl, but when she smiled, she was as dazzling as the sun.

Young Master Tao, who was hiding not far away, was taken aback. The bag of snacks he was holding fell on the ground. At this moment, he felt a little stuffy in his heart, very uncomfortable, as if he had lost a precious heart. Pearl.

Desperately, he picked up the bag of snacks and walked slowly into the crowd.

Yesterday, he heard a report from his servant saying that Ye Qiongdan seemed to have made a lot of money by selling pig offal and wild bracken on the pier. He didn't take it seriously, thinking that the servant was lying to him. Going to eat wild bracken and pig offal?

He originally wanted to see how this girl who put down her harsh words failed so badly, and then sent her a few taels of silver arrogantly. He didn't expect that her wild bracken and pig offal really sold so well.

The wharf in Qili Town has a huge flow of people, and this girl is taking the path of small profits but quick turnover. If she can sell twenty barrels of food a day, then her net profit will be 60 taels a month, and 600 taels a year. , this is not a small number!
Young master Tao sighed, thinking that he was about the same age as her, and he was still spending money, while she could make money by herself, and a feeling of inferiority actually rose in his heart.

After Young Master Tao left, Ye Qinghan still didn't want his sister's help, and moved everything to the town by himself.

It was noon at this time, the sun was very strong, Ye Qinghan bought a bowl of iced sour plum soup for his sister.

"Brother, why do you buy such expensive things?" Ice cubes in this era are very expensive, and the common people will store ice in winter, and then put ice in sugar water in summer and sell it on the street.

Even a simple bowl of chilled plum soup costs 35 Wen.

"It's hot, drink it quickly." Ye Qinghan wiped the sweat from his palms.

"Half for each person." Ye Qiongdan said hastily.

"I'm not thirsty. If it's not enough, I'll buy you another bowl." Seeing her face flushed from the sun, how could he bear it?He should work harder to let his sister live a better life.

Let her not only drink iced sour plum soup in the future, but also go to restaurants to eat at any time, and go to the bustling place in the capital to enjoy the most luxurious life.

Ye Qiongdan knew the value of this bowl of iced sour plum soup, so she didn't dare to waste it, drinking it until there was not a drop of soup left.

I have to say that drinking iced drinks in summer is fun.

After drinking, she felt her body temperature drop rapidly.

"Do you want another bowl?" Ye Qinghan asked.

"Enough. I'm afraid I'm going to have a stomachache if I come again." Ye Qiongdan said hastily.

So, Ye Qinghan went to return the bowl from the old woman who sold sour plum soup.

The old donkey said with emotion: "Girl Dan, I have to say that the brother you picked up really loves others, and it is the blessing of your third wife."

"Where did you pick it up? It's clearly my brother."

"Yes, yes, so good to you and your second brother, what is it if it's not your own brother?" The old donkey laughed.

For the next few days, Ye Qinghan helped her sell fast food every morning, went up the mountain to help her pick bracken in the afternoon, and only went to work in the field after picking the bracken.

Because of this incident, he was often reprimanded by the old couple, saying that he was fooling around with his sister and did less work in the field, but Ye Qinghan pretended not to hear it.

The people in the village saw that more and more pigs were sent to the water every afternoon, so they muttered.

"The pigs' offal and bracken must not be selling well. I think they are stubborn and want to get more food out to see if they can make back the money they lost before."

"Those meals must have been sold to rich people to feed their dogs. The third household of the Ye family must have lost money!"

"Let's just sit and see when Sanfang can't hold on! I said it a long time ago, if you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer in front of your eyes."

……

After the people in the village arrived in the town, they came back after finishing their errands. They didn't bother to inquire about how Ye Qiongdan's food was selling at the wharf.

Three days later, Mr. Zhang was finally invited.
