Co-wife

As expected, Baiyao put down the chopsticks in his hand after eating the vermicelli for a while, looked at Chen Chunhua and said. "I have to say, Baimou is really convinced today! This vermicelli is different from other foods. Not only is it interesting to eat, but it is also chewy and very soft. I don't know, how did you come up with this idea?"

Asked by Baiyao like this, Chen Chunhua didn't think about it, Dong Niang heard it, and said quickly. "After thinking about it, I came up with this idea. I don't know if Master Bai can readily agree to it now?"

"That's natural, even if you don't eat this vermicelli, you have to accept it!" The money earned from the fan business alone is enough to convince him!

Chen Chunhua nodded and said. "Now that I have agreed, I will tell you about the vermicelli business. This vermicelli business is completely different from the fan business. One is for food, the other is for utensils, and the place where the vermicelli business is busy is in my place." In Zhaojia Village nearby, some people have already been invited, and what we need to do now is Luzi and Shugua!"

Bai Yao and Dong Niang nodded and said. "I wonder how much the price of these vermicelli is set?"

"I've thought about it. You can't sell vermicelli in a small town. Naturally, you won't make any money if you sell it that way. The way to go this time is to sell vermicelli in a prosperous county on the side of Liaocheng. The price is naturally not low. Roughly speaking. Forget it, a catty of potato melon vermicelli costs at least [-] Wen, what do you think?"

Bai Yao listened, thought for a while, and said. "Fifty Wen is not much, but in Liaocheng alone, there are many rich and noble families, and the food in the house is also very good!"

"It is because of this that the vermicelli business has expanded. If you have time, please invite Master Bai and Niang Dong to Zhaojia Village to have a look. People who work here earn ten cents a day, and they are in charge of lunch!"

"Chunhua, since the business venue is set in Zhaojia Village, it's not as good as this. I will explain the affairs of the house tomorrow, and I will go to Zhaojia Village to take care of it. Take care of the tent!"

"Sure, let's settle it for now. For other things, we have to wait for the Baida Young Master to go to Zhaojia Village to see him. As for the potato and melon, I will leave it to you!"

Bai Yao nodded.Regarding the potato and melon matter, he sent someone to the village village to say hello, he said. "Okay, I will send someone to send Shugua to Zhaojia Village in two days!"

After agreeing in this way, Chen Chunhua hurried back to Zhaojia Village, and she was tired from the busy work.There is no modern means of transportation as developed.But a lot of tiring.

Back in the village, there is the third child in the house to look after her.Everyone is also busy. She had breakfast and went to Qingcheng for lunch and came back. There were more than a dozen jars in the yard, and the washed potatoes and melons were piled up in piles, and the potato and melon cutters were also busy. .

Seeing Chen Chunhua come back, the third child hurried over and said. "Daughter-in-law. I'm afraid there won't be enough cloth bags!"

When Chen Chunhua heard this, he patted himself on the head.road. "If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten!" She only had to sew some cloth bags in the house in the past two days, and such busy work must not be enough.

"Oh, don't worry, I gave the money to the godmother, she went to the town to buy some rough cloth and came back, calling Alian's wife and Qiu Ju to get busy together!"

Chen Chunhua nodded and said. "Okay, let's do this first, I'm very tired now, go back to the room and have a rest!"

Since the potato and melon starch has not been prepared yet, the powder leakage will naturally not be completed until the next day!Chen Chunhua rested in the room for a while, then thought about asking the third child to set up a big stove.

But now there is no place to set up the big stove. There is a water tank in the yard of the old house, and the yard in my house is busy.I went out of the yard and took a look. If the second child's yard hadn't been repaired before, the land was very spacious, and it would be great to use that land for the kitchen stove!

After thinking about it, I went to the two-pillar house. This powder sieve was used because the courtyard in the two-pillar house was busy. I entered the courtyard and faced the old road. "Brother, let me tell you something!"

The boss nodded, put down his busy work, and said. "Daughter-in-law, what's the matter?"

"The yard in the second house is usable? There's nowhere to go for the powder rack and the stove, so it won't work!" Hearing what Chen Chunhua said, the boss shook his head and said. "Let's not use his second son's yard, and wait for him to come back later. If he is dissatisfied with us, don't you want to provoke trouble?"

Chen Chunhua thinks about it too, and said. "Then what should I do?" The back of the yard in my house is blocked by the back mountain, and there is an open space in front of it, which is considered acceptable, but that area is in front of Aunt Gouzi's house. , she is unwilling to say it!

"Sister-in-law, why is there no land? It's not that there is a big stove in the yard of the second brother. Although the ground is uneven, it is not a big deal to ask a few people to work all morning to fix it!" Erzhuzi heard. After a while, he raised his head and said to Chen Chunhua.

Chen Chunhua nodded and said. "Sure, tomorrow I'll ask someone to repair the field over there, but how many sieves have been made?"

"I counted them just now, and there are more than 400. Thinking that there are still woods left, I just sorted them out, so as not to turn around and miss them again!" Er Zhuzi quickly spoke up.

The preparations for the vermicelli business are basically complete. Just waiting for the leakage of vermicelli after tomorrow and drying the vermicelli, it is estimated that the first batch of vermicelli will be ready in three to five days.

Baiyao is very particular about his work. He said that after two days, he sent people to bring two carts of potato melons to Zhaojia Village on the second day. This was not over yet, and in the afternoon, another three carts were delivered, and there was no land for potatoes and melons in the house. Put it, put it in the yard of the Dabao house and pile it up.

In the morning, the powder sieve was ready, the old man and Er Zhuzi, and Da Zhuzi called a few people to repair the land next to the second child's house, and then set up seven or eight large stoves.

Chen Chunhua still thinks that this place in the village can be very busy, but now it seems that there is not enough land, there is land for Dazao, but what about drying vermicelli?Thinking of this question, she felt dizzy.I'm afraid it's too late to use it all in the shade, so I have to say, seeing that the sun is getting smaller, I put it in the sun to bask in the ground.

Dong Niang came on the third day, she didn't come alone, she brought several wives with her, and also brought two carts of potatoes and melons.

When I arrived at Zhaojia Village, when I first entered the village, I didn't see anyone. When I got close to the river in Chen Chunhua's house, I saw a group of people by the river busy washing potatoes and melons.

Chen Chunhua saw Dong Niang coming, and quickly invited her into the house. There were two back rooms in the house, one of which was vacated for Dong Niang to live in.

Seeing Chen Chunhua busy in the yard, Dong Niang was dazzled. After entering the house, she asked the mother-in-law to take out the account book and abacus, and said. "Did Baiyao send five carts of potatoes and melons?"

"It's five cars!"

Dong Niang nodded, moved the abacus beads, and said. "He sent the five cartloads of potatoes and melons for a total of four coins. The potatoes and melons are not called by the rural villages on the side of Minmin City. The country village to the east of Liaocheng has a good harvest of potatoes and melons. Naturally, melons are much cheaper, and the two carts I brought here were also weighed there, and I have stored a lot of them in your house in Qingcheng!"

Chen Chunhua was still wondering why the potato melons were so cheap. After hearing Dong Niang's words, she thought that the village here had a bad harvest this year due to flooding, and it was the second time that the potato melons were planted.

"Chunhua, I just walked into your yard and looked at it. Why don't you organize the venue like Qingcheng does the fan business?"

Dong Niang asked, Chen Chunhua also thought about it, she is still short of manpower, and after a while, when the vermicelli business starts, she will use all the land in her house by the river to work on vermicelli. The thing is, the potatoes and melons are all harvested, and there is nothing to plant in the field, but that piece of land is not only in her house, this matter has to be discussed later!

"Don't panic about it, I have a plan, and I will talk about it after the business is done!"

"Okay, how many vermicelli are sold? When can we start selling them?"

"I guess it will be two days later!" Tomorrow, the vermicelli will start leaking. The way to dry the vermicelli is to make a lot of stakes, put them on bamboo poles and put them outside to dry.

Afterwards, Chen Chunhua took out her account book, looked at Dong Niang and said. "Now I will tell you about the utensils I bought for making vermicelli. The pots alone cost 11 taels. You can count them. The pots are all placed. In addition, there are more than 20 big pots. Seven Two, the leaking powder sieve is the busy work of the people in my house, so forget it, and the fabric money for the cloth bag..."

As for the knife used to cut potatoes and melons, it doesn't count. Those who are busy cutting potatoes and melons all bring this guy's things from their own houses, which also saves this money!

All in all, this busy work cost more than [-] taels of silver, Dong Niang just wrote down what Chen Chunhua said one by one.

The sweet potato starch deposited in the water tank was also emptied, and the next day it turned out to be a powder leak.

Chen Chunhua, the boss and the third child are all familiar with it, so they naturally have to teach them hand in hand. For the first time, they either broke the vermicelli, or let the vermicelli get mushy and stuck to the bottom of the pot.

Fortunately, Chen Chunhua made the powder sieves into rows, otherwise, it would take a few days of hard work to get started!

One morning passed, and the leaked vermicelli was not good, but in the afternoon, everyone calmed down and became more proficient, and the leaked vermicelli was much better, no longer broken and mushy.

Dong Niang followed Chen Chunhua all day long, she had never seen this leaking vermicelli, she never thought that it would be so complicated and troublesome to make vermicelli, and it was so easy to eat when she ate it, she didn't see it People who have been there naturally don't know this!

But she also truly admired Chen Chunhua for his idea of ​​doing business like this. She thought that if Bai Yao came to see her, she would be shocked for a while!

In the evening, everyone got off work, packed up everything and put it in the yard, and put away the vermicelli that was drying outside.

It's just this troublesome thing. Put the big pot outside for fear of being walked away by others, and the vermicelli can't be put outside. Once you put it away, it will be taken away by catty by catty!

After a whole day's busy work, Chen Chunhua sat down and didn't want to move. The boss and the third child watched their daughter-in-law busy these days, and they didn't bother her at night. Even though they thought about it, they still felt sorry for their daughter-in-law. very!

"Daughter-in-law, if you are very tired, go to bed first, and the third child and I will keep the things in the yard!" Seeing the daughter-in-law sitting limply on the chair, the eldest brother felt very distressed.

Chen Chunhua half-closed her eyes and nodded, yawned and went back to the house, she didn't care about washing her face and feet, and fell asleep on the kang. (To be continued.
