"Xianggong, I have a wonderful idea Xu Qing got out of the carriage and sat down next to Li Changting, "do you want to listen?"
Li Changting had guessed it in his heart, but he still asked suspiciously: "what's the idea?"
"I'm going to sell cakes along the way. You'll know how delicious my cakes are when you eat them. Do you still worry that no one will come to study arts?" Xu Qing said excitedly, "and we can disguise our identity by selling cakes, killing two birds with one stone."
Li Changting had no objection: "OK, let's make cakes the day before we go into town?"
Xu Qing: "how far is the next town?"
Li Changting: "it's not urgent to get to the next town in the evening. You should get your things ready first, and we need a car to sell cakes."
Xu Qing already had an idea about the car: "get a couple of small scooters, install a ceiling, tie bamboo curtains around the ceiling, put the curtains away when you use them, and put them down when you don't use them, so that the wind and rain are not wet. Then hang the flag of qingtingfang on the ceiling, so that you can see what we do
As long as it comes to making cakes, Xu Qing is full of energy.
Li Changting put people in his arms and said, "wait until the next town to buy a car. If you don't sell it, make one now."
Xu nodded, but after leaning in Li Changting's arms for two minutes, she quickly got up and got into the carriage.
"I want to count the ingredients at home and see what kind of pastry I can make."
Li Changting
Xu Qing took out a pen and paper and wrote down the number of cakes to be made and the ingredients needed.
She plans to make three kinds of cheap and three kinds of expensive cakes to make a good fortune.
Although everyone is short of money now, Xu Qing doesn't plan to make all of them simple and affordable. To put it bluntly, she doesn't lack the money. What she wants is to be famous in various places and let others think of her qingtingfang as soon as they think of cakes!
To make some exquisite and expensive cakes is also to show off her craftsmanship and recruit some clever disciples. Otherwise, it would not seem that she is a great master.
In the past, sweet scented osmanthus cake, mung bean cake and pie were relatively cheap, but now there is a lack of raw materials, and the price is naturally not comparable, so these products can not be sold by ordinary people.
Xu Qing wrote that the Dragon Boat Festival is coming. Of course, the Dragon Boat Festival is eating zongzi. This zongzi is indispensable. People in the family prefer meat zongzi, so they make meat dumplings.
Oh, yes, she doesn't have fresh meat either.
It's time to kill a pig to make up for the family.
But don't rush to buy zongzi now. The best time to sell zongzi is three days before and after the Dragon Boat Festival.
As for the three kinds of cheap cakes, jujube cake is indispensable. Xu Qing originally planned to make sweet potato cake, but he thought that every household must be tired of sweet potato cake. He simply made sweet potato and sweet potato balls, which are naturally fried and can supplement nutrition. In addition, milk flavored potato cakes and potato cakes with milk are naturally not the same grade as ordinary potato cakes. I believe that buyers will also have some quite a lot.
The last kind of pastry continues the previous tradition, making small pastry, walnut and chestnut stuffing.
Sweet scented osmanthus cake, mung bean cake, small pastry; red jujube cake, sweet potato and sweet potato balls and milk potato cake, that's it!
At noon, Xu Qing stopped to have a rest. He went into the space to feed the little dragonfly. Duanmu Xiang accompanied her all morning, but he didn't cry or make any noise. The little guy was babbling. As long as he wasn't hungry, he could enjoy himself.
There are such magical and confusing things in the space. Just like the livestock and poultry who are leisurely living in the space, they never make noise and always find their most comfortable way.
After feeding the milk, Xu Qing goes to make lunch and asks Duanmu Xiang to count the grain in the house.
After Xu Qing finished his lunch, he went to change Li Changting in the carriage outside. Now there are more than ten pairs of smart eyes in front of him. Xu Qing can only do many things carefully, so as not to be seen by others.
After a half-hour lunch break and a simple stew, the team continued to set out.
After sleeping in the carriage, Xu Qing woke up and went to a town, which was even more dilapidated than yesterday's, and there were few people in the town.
But fortunately, there is also an inn.
Because they went together with Hu Ling, they had to eat together. The food in the inn was too little oil and too much salt. It was not so bad, but they were used to eating delicious food every day. How could anyone eat such food.
Here, Xu Qing, Li Changting and Duanmu Xiang gather at a table and look at the three dishes on the table. On the surface, they are calm, but in their hearts they shout that it's true to do evil.
I would not have gone with them if I had known!
Duanmuxiang steals rice silently. Every time he picks a chopstick, he shakes it three times and drops a large piece of it. Finally, only a small piece is left in his bowl, which is not enough to plug his teeth.
Li Changting looked at the rice bowl in front of him, a little numb, he did not eat.
Xu Qing see what, asked: "you used to go out is like this do not eat?"No wonder every time I go out and go home, I lose so much weight. Li Changting is lucky to have an iron stomach. Otherwise, his stomach would have gone on strike.
"But the food is not to your taste?" Hu Ling came over with two packages of things, looked at the food that had hardly moved on the table and asked, then put down the paper bag in her hand, "this is the beef jerky produced in our hometown. I know it's against the rules to eat beef here, but we don't have this rule over there. You can eat it, brother and sister-in-law."
Xu Qing looked at the beef jerky specially sent by others. Even if there were many beef jerky at home, who would dislike good things? She sincerely said, "thank you, I'm very kind."
Hu Ling waved her hand with a smile. "No, you're welcome."
Xu Qing himself took a piece, and then handed another piece to Li Changting: "try it. It should be delicious."
The beef jerky of Huling is really delicious with the original flavor and strength of beef.
However, looking at Li Changting's lack of interest, Hu Ling asked anxiously, "isn't it delicious? I have some snacks and so on
Xu Qing said to Hu Ling, "don't pay any attention to him. He's just coquettish. He doesn't eat this or that. Such a big man is coaxed by the younger generation."
"Delicate" Li Changting after listening to the heart plug plug, biting the hands of beef jerky, tasteless.
Hu Ling felt that Xu Qing's words were too funny. She wanted to laugh, but because of brother Li's face, she didn't dare to laugh. She shook her head and said, "no, it's not like that." Then he walked quickly.
However, this kind of Li Changting makes Hu Ling feel very at ease. He is delicate, has a good temper, and writes his happiness and anger on his face. Unlike the previous meetings, he has a casual but omnipotent attitude, which makes him feel that he can't touch it and he is not at ease.
