Chapter 22 Candied Haws Sold Out

Not only that, after the first batch of hawthorns were processed, the young lady also asked her son to take the candied haws made from hawthorns and sell them on the street. Not only that, he would get a penny for every five bunches sold. The young lady said that this was called commission. The more commissions you get, the more commissions you get.

It’s just that his two sons have been living in the mountains and have never seen the world and are very afraid of life. The young lady is not upset. She puts on her brother’s old clothes, disguises herself as a little boy and takes his two sons to the street to teach them how to sell.

Feng Dashi and Feng Ershi, one is nineteen years old. It is said that they are married and have children. Su Ruojin has basically adapted to the early marriages of the ancients. The other is sixteen years old. It is said that if it were not for poverty, he should be married.

The two men were wearing a pair of black short brown patches when their father went to the city to sell hawthorn. Not to mention the mountains in ancient times, even in modern times, the conditions in some mountains are very difficult.

Feng Wangtian's ability to break through the obstacles of difficult mountain roads to find a way to survive in the capital is a kind of courage in itself. People who come to the capital with courage and hope to seek life must have ideas. Once someone guides them to turn their ideas into reality, it will inevitably Unstoppable.

Sure enough, in the first two days, the two young men wore the new coarse cloth long coats Su Ruojin bought for them, and followed Su Ruojin timidly with candied haws sticks in their hands, not daring to even look at anyone.

Su Ruojin was not in a hurry to sell goods. He pointed to the small vendors in the crowd and asked them to learn from him, telling them how to overcome panic, how to shout to attract customers, what to do if they encounter difficult customers, or encounter soldiers and horses patrolling on patrol. How to deal with it.

The last sentence is also the most important sentence: Do you want to always have money in your pocket and live a better and better life?

The two young men nodded in unison: "I think so."

It’s too much to think about.

It turns out that there is no comparison in the mountains, but once I walk out of the mountains and enter the bustling city, I see people wearing bright clothes and eating well and drinking hot food, and then I look at the clothes on my body that are worse than those of a beggar. I don’t know how to use my strength, but now that someone is teaching me step by step, these two guys are not like dry sponges sucking water hard.

Once a person has a strong idea of ​​​​change, he will break through his own timidity and cowardice, and grow up again as if he were reborn. The two stones of the Feng family met Bole, and they grew up rapidly like wild horses that escaped the reins.

Suddenly, as people came and went in the capital, people's eyes were always attracted by the bunches of red and crystal clear fruits. People, men, women, old and young, always wanted to bring a bunch to their children at home.

Seeing that this product was easy to sell, some small traders came to inquire about it and wanted to sell it. If they wanted to make money, it was impossible for just one or two people to sell it. Su Ruojin agreed to sell it, but she had determined the area. If she knew that she would not sell according to the area, she would be vicious with others. Don't blame her if you can't make money by trying to cut prices.

Small vendors also want to make money, of course. If they don’t make money, why sell? They all agree to sell by area. If someone doesn’t follow the rules, they won’t get the goods next time.

Su Ji’s candied haws on a stick is sold out.

Children playing in the streets and alleys, who doesn’t have a bunch of candied haws in their hands? Even if they don’t, they are on their way home to get money to buy them.

Feng Wangtian no longer makes other hawthorn products, but boils sugar with his wife and sister to make candied haws. Before the goods are ready, there are always people waiting at the door to replenish the goods, including his two sons, who are so busy that they can’t even touch the ground.

Shutong and Dong's mother were selling breakfast. Su Ruojin originally bought the hawthorns to wait for the imperial court to take the annual holiday and not do the breakfast business, but seeing the Feng family and his son, they were really greedy for three big laborers, and one of them couldn't help it. I left the people behind, but I didn’t expect that there wouldn’t be enough candied haws to sell for the New Year, let alone until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month after the new year.

Mainly Su Ruojin divided the hawthorn into several parts. In addition to making candied haws, he also made hawthorn slices and jam. Originally, he thought that the eggs could not be put in the same basket to prevent three thousand kilograms of hawthorn from being stuck in his hands. Unexpectedly, the candied haws sold out.

Seeing that Uncle Tong and Mother Dong were about to take a break during the New Year's holiday in the court, Su Ruojin said to Feng Wangtian in advance, "Uncle, how about we take a break after the New Year?" Feng Wangtian understood it as soon as he heard it, but he didn't know what to do. Do, "Little lady, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Su Ruojin chuckled, "The one who knows me is Uncle Feng!"

The honest middle-aged man blushed when the six-year-old lady teased him, "Although I am older, I am short-sighted, so don't dislike me, lady."

Having said this, the big one and the small one couldn't help but exchange business compliments. After that, Kuang continued his business, "Uncle, I want to keep Brother Dashi and Brother Ershi in the capital to continue selling candied haws, but I need you to go back to your hometown and help us transport them." Come here with several kilograms of hawthorns.”

How good is this? Feng Wangtian hurriedly said: "I... my family is gone!"

Su Ruojin had never done business before and couldn't think straight. Su Ruojin was not in a hurry and asked, "Have all the other houses in the village been sold?"

"That's not true." Feng Wangtian slapped his knee, "Yes, there are few people in the town, and merchants in the county have lowered their prices. Even the hawthorns in the village are not willing to sell. They heard that I came to the capital to sell, and they were all waiting at home. As for my news, it’s been almost ten days since I came out, so they probably thought I didn’t sell it!”

If he hadn't met the young lady, he would probably have either failed to sell it or sold it at a very low price. This kind of thing has never happened before. He, Feng Wangtian, was lucky enough to meet a noble person this year.

Thinking of this, Feng Wangtian stood up and said, "I'll drive the mule cart back right away."

Feng Wangtian excitedly raised his legs and was about to go back, but Su Ruojin pulled him back. He couldn't help but explain and remind him, telling him how to hide the money in a low-key manner, how to collect the hawthorns when he returned to the village, and if he couldn't get it by himself when he came, he could hire someone to wait. Of course, I also prepared a cart of new year's goods and a deposit for purchasing hawthorns for him. Anyway, I told him everything I could think of in detail before letting him go back.

Feng Wangtian was driving a mule cart, but his heart was flying back. Su Ruojin could relate to how excited he was and looked forward to the future life, because she was happily making money at the moment.

With a large labor force gone, Su Ruojin had no choice but to capture his father as a young man.

The hawthorn slices cut a few days ago have been dried in the sun. After dinner, Su Yanli helped his daughter pack the dried hawthorns. Her daughter also asked him to carve a small seal and stamped the word "Su Ji" on each paper bag. Character.

"How to sell these?" Su Yanli asked: "Also set up a small stall?"

Su Ruojin nodded: "After the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Uncle Shutong and Mama Dong will not set up a breakfast stall. We will set up stalls in front of various temples."

Hawthorn slices are dried in the sun and can be used to make tea or soup. This is the most common way to eat it. It does not attract everyone's attention. At most, you can just buy some and eat them at home during the New Year. If you want to make a lot of money, you have to eat the dried hawthorn slices. Crush it into powder to make finished hawthorn slices and hawthorn sauce.

To make soy milk at home, there is a ready-made stone mill. After grinding the hawthorn slices into powder, filter it through a sieve to obtain extremely fine hawthorn powder. Stir it with the sugar dilute cooked in a large pot and slowly simmer it over low heat to make a thin hawthorn puree. Put it into a jar and seal it to form a sauce, spread it thickly on the chopping board, let it cool, roll it out thinly and evenly, and finally use the round mold to cut it into round hawthorn slices, which can be used as snacks or as a stomach and digestive food. This piece is suitable for all ages and is a must-have at home during the Chinese New Year.

It takes a lot of effort to make large quantities to sell. The whole family, even Cheng Yingzhen, who is in double confinement, came over to help with the cores. The Su family was busy and full of energy.
