Chapter 60

Qiao Wei didn't expect boss Rong's promise to be so straightforward. You know, one or two yuan in this dynasty is about 600 yuan in modern times, and one hundred Wen is 60 yuan. It's not too expensive to say.

At the beginning, she made preserved eggs, but she didn't go to business. She just liked to eat them and couldn't buy them in the market, so she pickled a jar of them at home to satisfy her cravings. Jing Yun and Wang Shu didn't like the taste of them. It was Chen Dadao's scramble with her brothers that made her realize that this might also become a business opportunity.

She just lion big mouth, just tease Rong boss, which once thought he really should down?

Money is a son of a bitch.

"Mr. Rong." Qiao Wei wantonly lengthened the tone, "the 100 wen I said is not the selling price before sharing, but the supply price I gave you."

"What do you mean? Do you still want to supply others? "

Nonsense! This kind of thing that can be mass produced, of course, she hopes to supply everywhere!

The owner Rong, who wanted to eat alone, was unhappy and said bitterly, "am I not good enough to you? Why are you doing this to me? "

Qiao Wei nearly spurted out a mouthful of tea!

Do you want to be so shameless? It's like she's empathizing and not in love!

"Miss Qiao ~" boss Rong pulled her sleeve.

Qiao Wei has been burned by thunder. I'm old. Please don't be cute any more, OK?! Be careful! I can't stand it!

"You can sell it here. The price of the goods is 100 Wen. How about I share the profit with you?" Let the boss wink.

Qiaowei than a gesture: "three seven."

The boss frowned: "Miss Qiao, don't go too far!"

Qiao Wei picks eyebrows.

Let the boss's mouth turn a son, pathetic way: "I like your excessive..."

After another business negotiation, Qiao Wei is in a good mood. First she goes to Qinglong Gang to call Chen Dadao, and then she gets on Chen Gang leader's carriage and goes to the market to buy 200 duck eggs.

In this dynasty, salted eggs are expensive. What's more expensive is salt, not eggs. It's only two Wen for a duck egg. It's very good and cheap.

The production cost of preserved eggs is not high. Salt, plant ash, quicklime, edible alkali, black tea, rice husk and water are all the accessories.

The cost of these accessories, except for black tea and salt, is much lower than that of salted eggs. The selling price is five times that of salted eggs.

No, 100 Wen is the minimum price she offered. If it is sold in the market, the boss will increase it.

When she passed a pharmacy, Qiaowei saw the powder in the cupboard.

Mithushen, also known as Huangdan, can detoxify, invigorate muscles, and calm down phlegm. Moderate amount of mithushen can make preserved eggs taste better, but the disadvantage is that it contains lead.

After a moment's hesitation, Qiao Wei left.

The black tea was bought in Zhao Ge's shop. Qiao Wei bought ten jin. Zhao Ge thought she was making tea eggs and gave her another Jin - half Jin of black tea and half Jin of green tea.

They can't be bought in the market, so they have to go back to the village.

The demand for her is small for the time being. Luo Da's family is enough for her.

Back on the mountain, Qiao Wei began to pickle preserved eggs. Chen Dadao had a free time today and left her to fight with aunt Luo.

He has a heavy hand. When he washed the eggs, he crushed five of them, but it made Qiaowei's flesh ache.

However, there are many people and great strength. 200 duck eggs can be pickled in an afternoon. It's still worth being happy.

……

Mrs. Ji's appetite is not good recently. She can't eat a mouthful of the dishes and snacks made in the kitchen, and she's a lot depressed. On a sunny day, she's listless on the rattan chair under the corridor.

Rong's mother brought a bowl of millet porridge: "old lady, how do you use it!"

Old lady Ji said feebly, "I can't eat it. Let it go."

"Old lady, Miss Qiao is here." The servant girl reported in the yard.

Old lady Ji's eyes lit up slightly: "come on in!"

Qiao Yuxi twisted a delicate food box and walked slowly to the old lady. He politely said, "old lady Jin'an."

Mrs. Ji waved to her with a smile: "come and sit down!"

"Yes." She gently answered, gently sat down on the embroidered stool beside the old lady, opened the food box and said, "that shop has a new taste. It's red date and yam cake."

Old lady Ji was about to reach for it, but she was stopped by Rong's mother. Rong's mother said with a kind face: "Miss Qiao, old lady's spleen and stomach are weak recently. Dr. Zhang told us that you can only eat liquid food, not sweet, greasy and spicy food."

Older people should pay more attention to their diet.

Qiao Yuxi's face turned white. He stood up and said with guilt, "it's all because Xi'er is not good. I'm just trying to please you. I forget to avoid eating for you."

Mrs. Ji waved her hand: "if I don't do your business, I can't control this mouth myself." Looking at the snack in the box, "I'll take a bite."

Rong's mother shook her head.

Old lady Ji: "a little.""No," said Rong

Mrs. Ji turned her back angrily.

At this time, the big maid Xuemei came with a tray.

Mrs. Ji took a look at the jade bowl in her tray and said, "I don't want to eat it!"

Xuemei said with a smile, "the young master has come back to honor you. Just have a taste of it."

As soon as I heard that my grandson had prepared it for me, Mrs. Ji was more or less moved.

Qiao Yuxi opened the lid of the bowl, a smell of raw celery came to his nose, and a faint, unspeakable taste: "what kind of porridge is this?" The color is strange.

Xuemei replied, "Songhua egg and duck porridge."

They only know bird eggs, duck eggs, goose eggs and salted eggs. It's the first time they've heard about Songhua eggs.

Mrs. Ji immediately became interested and scooped a spoonful into her mouth. To be honest, it tasted strange, but she couldn't help but want to eat a second spoonful A few spoonfuls down, actually have an appetite.

……

The ripening period of preserved eggs is about a month, and the earliest batch of goods can only be delivered to Mr. Rong in mid March. After the delivery of the goods, we are almost ready to start the busy farming, and the time is just right.

On the first day of March, Qiao Wei hired the brothers of Qinglong Gang to irrigate the land to dilute the salinity of the soil. Sweet sorghum is tolerant to salt and alkali, but does not like salt and alkali. Low salt and alkali degree is beneficial to seedling emergence.

During these days, Qiao Wei has been investing money abroad. She makes 200 snacks every day, and her income is two liang after sharing. In this dynasty, agriculture is emphasized and business is suppressed. After tax is removed, the remaining is less than one or two. When the cost and various expenses are included, the income is basically beyond the expenses.

So despite her hard work, Qiao Wei's purse is shrinking day by day.

"Mother!" After finishing his homework, Jing Yun looks up at Qiao Wei, who is helpless. "Are we out of money again?"

Qiao Wei shook her head quickly: "of course not!"

Jing Yun said, "Sir, let me tell you something."

"What's the matter?" Qiao Wei asked.

Jingyun said: "it's going to be a child prodigy test once every three years. My husband said I could take part in it."

Qiao Wei sorted out the account book: "what is the child prodigy test?"

After thinking about it, Jing Yun said, "like the imperial examination, it's all about selecting talents, but the imperial examination is for adults, the child prodigy test is for children, and anyone under the age of 12 can run."

And this in ancient times?!

I've got more knowledge.

Qiao Wei looks at Jing Yun: "the biggest twelve, son, you are only five years old."

Jingyun said seriously, "but I know more words than brother a Sheng."

A Sheng, Cuiyun's younger brother, is the only child in the village.

Qiao Wei surprised: "you are more powerful than a Sheng?"

Jing Yun nodded with pride: "Mr. said, the first place has silver reward."

Qiao Wei said earnestly: "even so, my mother sent you to study. It's not for you to make money for your family. I just hope you can be a learned person. Don't waste your time when you are young. You can also have a skill in the future. Do you understand?"

Jing Yun nodded.

"How much is the reward?"

"One thousand Liang."

Qiao Wei stood up and said, "I'll sign up."
