Chapter 76 I am addicted to making money

Feng'er went to open the door, and rich families from Tianshui Town rushed into her house. When they saw the candied haws in the courtyard, they all screamed.

"Is this for sale?"

"Sell, a string of one hundred words."

"Give me ten skewers, and I want ten skewers too" was instantly rounded up.

Some of them were in a hurry because they didn’t buy them. In the end, the three of Feng’er reluctantly handed over their two strings.

Qiao Mai comforted them after seeing it, "Mother will do it for you later."

Hearing this, the children became happy, and the people in the town hurriedly made reservations.

"Give me ten more skewers, my family has many children."

"I want ten skewers too"

"These can only be picked up in the afternoon."

"Is it okay to have lunch?"

"Can."

So they bought some snacks, and then returned home satisfied. Just as Feng'er was about to close, Chen Hao came.

"Auntie, Happy New Year, sir. My mother and I went back to my grandparents' house yesterday. Please forgive me for not coming to pay New Year's greetings."

Qiao Mai smiled, "Happy New Year, Haoer, come, this is from my aunt."

Chen Hao went up to pick it up politely, "Thank you, Auntie."

"Feng'er, take your brother Hao to sit in the house and bring out all the delicious food at home."

"Yes, mother!"

Yuan Jiaqi took Linger from Qiao Mai's hand, "I have to work hard for you again."

"It's not hard work. I'm addicted to making money. You see, in such a short period of time, I sold it for more than a dozen taels of silver. When the Chinese New Year comes, people have money in their hands. If you don't make money at this time, when will you make it?"

Yuan Jiaqi hugged Linger and followed her to the kitchen with a smile.

Sitting in front of the stove, ready to light a fire, Qiao Mai will go to the warehouse for a while, and chop wooden sticks for a while.

After preparing for half an hour, I started to boil the sugar.

"Chen's mother and son are back, shall we go over to pay New Year's greetings?"

"No, if she is sensible, she should come here, after all, you are her son's husband."

"I listen to you."

"Actually, this candied haws is the best way to make it. Put some fruits together and skewer it. The most important thing is to boil the sugar. Put it on the chopping board after dipping it in sugar. Once it's hot and then cold. Once the sugar is fixed, it's ready when it cools down."

"Easier said than done, it's really easy to see what you do."

"Just get started, and you have to learn more and practice more."

"It feels like it's really easy for you to make money."

"Just like the book in your head, it's as easy for you to copy the book, but if you ask me to copy it, I won't, what do you think?"

"Makes sense."

While the two were talking, the candied haws were all ready. Qiao Mai found another wooden stake, cut it and inserted it into a hole

I made a hundred of them in one go this time, and there are dozens of sticks left, which are enough for the children to eat.

Seeing that it was noon, Qiao Mai cleaned the pot and wanted to get some fresh food for everyone, so he went to the warehouse, used the warehouse as a cover, and took out a dozen steaks from the freezer in the space.

These steaks are marinated and are well-known brand steaks sold in supermarkets.

After the pot dried up, she didn't put any oil in it. She put the steak in, three slices at a time, and put it on the plate after frying. She held Ling'er and asked the Yuan family to taste it first.

"This is medium rare steak, try it."

"steak?"

"Yes, it's beef tenderloin. I named it steak."

He took a piece and tasted it, "It tastes really good, and it's very tender. It's not the same as what I ate before. The cow is the main labor force of our Ming Dynasty's arable land, and the court does not allow it to be slaughtered at will."

Yuan Jiaqi was afraid that she would not understand, so he explained.

"Well, I know this. These are bought from Fucheng, and there are legal procedures. After you finish eating, go ask the children to eat. This should be eaten while it is hot. It will not taste good when it is cold."

Yuan’s family got up and finished three slices in a few gulps. Qiao Mai shook his head speechlessly. According to this way of eating, one person should get at least five slices, and with Chen Hao included, thirty slices would be enough.

While he was going to call for someone, she looked at the freezer with her mind, there were fifty pieces in total, took fifteen pieces away, and there were thirty-five pieces left, the Yuan family took three pieces together, and there should be thirty-eight pieces. right.

She counted it, and then she was relieved. The space he ate was quickly replenished.

Just make it up, so she doesn't have to worry about finishing the steak in the future.

When the Yuan family came back, they brought Linger over, and the four children surrounded Qiao Mai.

"Mom, what are you doing so fragrant?"

"Take a plate and chopsticks. After a while, I'll fry a slice and put it on your plate. There's enough meat for today."

The children swallowed, "Mother, why do you eat this meat like this? Don't you stew it?"

"It's delicious if you don't stew it."

She was frying the steak, one piece was put on the child's plate, and she was frying one piece at a time, and she didn't know how many pieces she had fried. The children are full.

"Mother, this meat is really delicious."

"Go and play when you are full. There are candied haws in the yard. Eat a bunch of them to appetize."

"Mother, you are so kind, you are the best mother in the world."

Qiao Mai curled her lips, she really is a child, if she has milk, she is her mother, and if she has a stutter, it is fine.

Qiao Mai fried a few more slices for Yuan Jiaqi, and she took the child, "You'll hug Linger after you're full."

"You haven't eaten a bite yet."

"I've eaten this before you came to the house, it's not rare."

"You really have nothing to say about your craftsmanship. If you don't find a man in the future, how about I stay at your house for the rest of your life?"

After speaking, Yuan Jiaqi blushed.

Qiao Mai didn't feel anything, "Okay, if I don't fall in love with other men in the future, you will live in my house for the rest of your life. I don't mind. Anyway, I have someone to work for me, so I can save my worries a lot."

A certain man listened and nodded unconsciously, feeling sweet in his heart.

Since the day of the second day of junior high school, the Qiao family has never had a leisurely time. Every day, many people come to buy things.

Qiao Mai simply vacated a corner of the living room, set up the shelf that used to be used to dry the sun in the yard, and placed goods on it. Yuan Jiaqi and Feng'er Yun'er knew the price, and she just prepared the goods, and the rest was their business. up.

Almost twenty taels of income every day, Yuan Jiaqi did not want to copy books anymore.

I have worked hard all day, so I can copy half a book, one book in three days, and a month is only a few taels of silver. When encountering books with high requirements, it only costs two taels of silver after copying a book. Fortunately, Mrs. Qiao can pay him in one day. income for several months.

It's really more angry than people, Qiao Mai wants to laugh when he sees his tangled expression.

"Brother Yuan, don't forget, I still have costs. Seeing that I earn so much a day, why didn't you remove the costs for me?"

"That's right, your things are all good, so the cost will naturally be high."

"So don't be jealous, it's more than twenty taels, just earn a few taels."

"That's not a lot. I'm not jealous, but I feel poor and rich. A scholar who has been poor for ten years, except for a high school, is really worthless. They say that a scholar is noble, but what is noble? Copy a book It’s not as much money as street vendors selling it on the beach, what’s the use of having a noble reputation, it’s better to have money in your hand to make your family live comfortably.”

"Not necessarily. Although studying costs money, if you can pass the exam, you will become famous. If you fail the exam, it is also a profession. Like the accountant, you can work as a clerk in the county government. It's not as good as copying as you said. He doesn't have to go to work like a farmer. The field is so hard, and you don’t need to be exposed to the wind and the sun, let’s take you as an example, you and Chuan’er don’t need to go to the field, and your life outside is better than that of farmers, thanks to your ability to read and write, what do you think?”

Yuan Jiaqi sighed, "You're right, I'm the one with the picture."

Qiao Mai smiled, "Didn't Brother Yuan find out? Among the many vendors on the beach, I am the only one whose business is good. I have the ability to make good things. Like other vendors, a few taels of income a month is enough. Not bad."

"Yes, you are a capable woman"

"However, I will not tell anyone where my stuff comes from. This is my source of income. If I tell others, mine will be gone."
