Chapter 745

With the "weapon" of weighing hands, it's too easy to deal with a small coconut.

Outside in the scorching sun, everyone was hot and dry in the spacious and bright room. When they were thirsty, they directly scooped the coconut juice in the wooden barrel to drink, cool and quench their thirst.

Especially after a full meal in the inn, I worked very hard.

When it was getting dark, most of the coconuts had been disposed of. Everyone was busy spreading the last pot of coconut powder on the lid of the pot to dry. Then they went to the well to wash their hands and prepare for dinner.

The food is packed in a big pot. If you serve it yourself, you can eat as much as you like. Even if you don't have to ask, these poor people will not waste food.

At the beginning, everyone didn't dare to hold too much meat. Later, when two bosses were away, the three women who were cooking told that the boss's wife was not satisfied that they didn't buy meat this afternoon, and told them to buy it tomorrow morning.

Therefore, the boss is really not bad money, although the meal opened to eat, not enough to return to do.

We have never eaten such rich food during the Spring Festival. They are all the same food. It tastes very different from what we usually do. It's delicious!

When the three cooks said that, they had no scruples and ate too much.

It's getting dark. It's not easy to drive outside at this time. Some people who are close to each other also decide not to go home. The main reason is that they don't live in such a big house. What's it like to sleep.

After dinner, everyone would line up to fetch water from the well to take a bath. This is also the requirement of the boss. I have to take a bath three times a day in the morning, noon and evening, and I have to wash my hair at night. Although it's troublesome, who cares if I can make money.

To this end, the three cooks also cooked a large pot of Gleditsia sinensis, so that we do not grudge to use, otherwise tomorrow the boss smell someone stinking, on the spot to resign you are possible.

People think that the cook is joking, but when they think that the two well-dressed bosses come from rich families, they must pay attention to neatness.

Rich people have rich people's attention. Although they are used to being poor, it's better not to be unlucky.

Everyone said so, then one by one did not dare to take a bath carelessly, hoping to rub themselves even whiter than today's cut coconut meat.

Thirty five people went to bed after taking a bath. All the furniture in the house had been moved by the owner earlier, and Xu Qing couldn't find thirty-five beds. They were used to sleeping on straw mats and didn't pay so much attention to them.

The straw mat is covered with a thick straw mat, which is very soft and comfortable to sleep.

The next morning, Xu Qing just went out and saw the shopkeeper downstairs talking to a strange middle-aged man. When they saw Xu Qing, they welcomed him happily.

"Ma'am, this is the vendor friend I told you. His name is Mao San."

Mao San was simple and honest, but he was shrewd. He respectfully asked Xu Qing and Li Changting, "madam, if you have anything, please tell me. I'm familiar with all the fruits in this area."

Xu nodded and asked, "can you speak the dialect here?"

Mao San: "yes."

Xu Qing: "can you bargain?"

Mao San: "of course."

Xu Qing: "then you come with me."

See a few people want to go out, shopkeeper asks: "Madam did not eat breakfast to go again?"

Xu Qing: "I have already eaten it."

Words fall, people have gone far.

Xu Qing and Li Changting went to the clothing shop first. Mao San was suspicious, but he didn't talk much.

"I ordered thirty-five sets of clothes here and only paid the deposit. Now I'm going to make the final payment. The boss seems to want to cheat me when he sees that I'm a stranger. Go and help me pay the final payment first, and you'll get 20% of the money cut down."

Mao San asked the price and went in with the receipt.

Even Xu Qing felt cheated, not to mention Mao San, who is half a local. The clothes here are not as expensive as those in the big city. The boss is obviously a butcher.

Mao San thought Xu Qing had bought such fine silk and satin. When he walked in, he found that it was some ordinary people's short dozen. There were a lot of these things in stock in the clothing shop. How could he reserve them?

The owner of the clothing shop was in a bad mood when he saw Mao San coming in with that familiar list. There are so many people in the small town. He didn't see them when he looked down. He came and went for a long time, even though he didn't know the boss very well.

"Brother, this Or you'll get 20% of the money. " The boss kindly pulled Mao San to whisper.

Mao San quietly shook him away: "sorry, that's my boss."

The boss showed an expression of grief.

Mao San came out with two baskets of clothes and returned the extra money to Xu Qing. Xu Qing gave him 20% of the money according to his promise. Mao San accepted Xu Qing's generous offer without hesitation.

Mao San drives his carriage to Xu Qing's rented house. Everyone in the house has been working for a long time. Xu Qing takes Mao San in for a turn to show him the coconut powder that has been made.

Mao San is a peddler. In fact, he knows better than these villagers what kind of coconut powder is good for sale and preservation. As soon as he pinches it, he knows that the coconut powder is not dried enough, but the taste is good and there are almost no impurities. This kind of coconut powder is considered to be the best.Because of Xu Qing's fine craft requirements, people from all over the country have not been able to make such good coconut powder. The key is that they don't have such good tools.

When he saw the five men peeling with short knives, Mao San could not help showing his expression of outrage. He had only one good knife of his own.

If the coconut powder is not dry enough, it will greatly reduce the shelf life. If it scorches, it will affect the taste. Mao San is very experienced here, so Xu Qing asked him to keep an eye on this, check the coconut powder and give him the job of packing.

The three cooks went to the market early to buy vegetables. Most of the dishes in the morning were picked up by the surrounding villages, which were relatively cheap. They took a big basket to chop 20 jin of fat and thin fresh pork, and then bought today's dishes.

When they meet the fellow villagers who come to sell vegetables, they will take more care of them and ask them to take a message back by the way, saying that they are well paid to work here and let the family not worry.

At noon, I cooked three dishes, one meat and two vegetables. Among them, fried sliced pork with shredded chilli was delicious, spicy and delicious.

After dinner, Xu Qing asked the cook to move down the two baskets behind the carriage, and then distributed the clothes to everyone.

Some people still borrow clothes when they come here to work. It's really embarrassing to see the clothes that are broken and exposed. Li Changting put forward the idea of buying clothes.

Xu Qing said that he didn't stare at other people's strong body. He just glanced at it.

When they got the clothes, everyone was very surprised, but Xu Qing said that they had to wash them again before they could wear them. So they took advantage of the noon bath and washed the clothes again, so that they could have a change of clothes.
