Chapter 60 Meat Buns

"This popcorn looks too much, but it seems empty." Bai Lixia's eyes flashed with a hint of disappointment.

Such a big basket actually cost less than half of what it would have cost to sell the dried sweet potatoes. The gap was really obvious, especially since she felt that the popcorn was more delicious than the dried sweet potatoes, and she always felt that it should be sold for more money than the dried sweet potatoes. More is right.

“Although the price of selling a basket may not be enough, it is better because the cost is lower.”

Su Mulan explained with a smile, "If you sell dried sweet potatoes, the cost will be about 30% to 40%, but for this big basket of popcorn, the sticks plus oil and sugar, the total cost will be less than 30%, and It’s not as time-consuming and labor-intensive as drying sweet potatoes, and it can be made at any time, without having to consider the weather.”

"Let's carry more popcorn to sell next time. Slowly, won't the money be more? You still have to take your time when making money. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."

This is true. This basket costs thirty-nine cents. If there are two baskets, it will cost almost eighty cents. There are nine markets a month. Popcorn alone can be sold for almost one tael of silver. When it comes out, after considering the cost, you can earn 600 yuan.

At the end of this year, wouldn’t it be that several taels of silver have come out?

If you add in dried sweet potatoes, you will have to earn at least more than ten taels a year. If you can have so much money, how can your family live a very comfortable life?

“Mother is right.”

Bai Lixia nodded in agreement.

Su Mulan saw Bai Lixia's eyes shining brightly, knowing that she was probably settling an account in her mind at the moment, so she smiled and touched her little head, "This business is getting better and better as it goes on. Kuan, we will have more and more ways to make money in the future. Let’s take our time and not be in a hurry.”

"Yes, I believe you, mother." Bai Lixia's voice was two points crisper than before.

She truly believed it, from the bottom of her heart.

Especially after watching an episode with Su Mulan and seeing how flexible and confident Su Mulan was when doing business, this idea became even more firm in her mind.

“Just trust me.”

Su Mulan smiled and carried the two diabolo baskets on her back, "Let's go buy meat and go back to steam the meat buns at noon."

"Okay, let's eat meat buns." Bai Lixia narrowed her eyes with a smile, and even jumped a little when she walked, as if she was as lively and energetic as a child should be.

Since she arrived here, what she has seen is that these four children are more sensible, mature and stable than ordinary children of the same age. It once made Su Mulan quite distressed, but now that she saw Bai Lixia's appearance, she suddenly felt something in her heart. A little bit of relief.

As an old mother, she can be considered to have reached the basic passing line.

Su Mulan raised her eyebrows.

After buying one and a half kilograms of breast meat and two green onions, Su Mulan and Bai Lixia started working after they got home.

I woke up in the morning and set out for the town. The noodles I had made before were already fully cooked. I added lye water and kneaded them on the chopping board. I rolled them into a thin and even round cake. I put the beaten green onion and meat stuffing in it and kneaded it. Bun pleats.

The round steamed buns are lined up neatly on the chopping board.

Bai Shuiliu and Bai Lixia wanted to help make buns, but they had not eaten buns or made buns for a long time. This was Jingui meat stuffing and pure white flour. Broken, a waste of minced meat and white flour.
