I farmed and raised children in ancient times

Chapter 74 Secret
"Wow! It looks delicious!" Aunt Li exclaimed.

The women are all in charge of cooking at home, and they usually make cakes, but none of them can make such soft and crispy cakes.

Chen was the most shocked. After all, it was not that her daughter had never cooked before, but she had never made such delicious food.

Could it be that?
She looked at her daughter quietly, and suddenly remembered that their family never seemed to have white flour or anything to make out of it!

Thinking about it this way, the thoughts that had just arisen in my mind disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Xie Zhilan generously distributed the cakes to them for them to taste, and reminded them to write down their feelings so that they would know how to sell cakes when they went out to sell cakes.

"How much do you sell this delicious cake?" Mrs. Zhao asked cautiously while eating.

Xie Zhilan was about to tell them about it.

"My mother usually sells ordinary pancakes for three pennies, and the business is still very good, so this cornmeal pancake can be sold at the same price as white flour pancakes. But this crispy pancake needs to be sold at a higher price. As you can see, oil and salt are all The cost, so you can sell it for five yuan. Therefore, if you want to sell this, you need three yuan for the price."

Everyone was a little hesitant when they heard it. Five cents a piece was actually quite expensive. After all, the buns sold in the county town cost only two cents a piece.

"Could no one buy it?" Zhao was a little uneasy.

Their family didn't have much money, if they took the goods and couldn't sell them, wouldn't they be losing money?Their family can't afford it now!
"How could no one buy it?" Dr. Hu's daughter-in-law, Li Shi, stuffed the last crumb of the crispy pastry into her mouth, and smacked her lips involuntarily. "Such delicious biscuits will definitely not be sold!"

After she finished speaking, she saw that Mrs. Zhao's face turned red and she was a little embarrassed, so she changed her tone and said, "If you are afraid that you won't be able to sell them, you can sell white flour cakes and yellow flour cakes, and I will sell crispy cakes!"

After eating once, she is very confident in this business!

Because of sufficient manpower, under the leadership of Mrs. Chen, all the cakes were quickly prepared.

Xie Zhilan took advantage of this time to make three sets of stall carts for them.

She exchanged the items in the system last night. After the upgrade, she can directly exchange for customized products, so it is very fast to assemble after taking them out. She even pasted a big red paper on each cart, which reads Thank you for the crispy biscuits.

Aunt Li was a little worried about her daughter-in-law's first business, so the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law wholesaled [-] white flour cakes and [-] crispy cakes to sell, while Dr. Hu's daughter-in-law, Li Shi, wholesaled [-] yellow cakes. Noodle cakes and [-] crispy shortbreads, and another Changlin daughter-in-law took [-] of each of these three varieties.

There were nearly a hundred cakes left, Xie Zhilan packed some for Xie Lin to bring to Qin Sheng and Gu Wei to taste, and kept some at home, and the others were brought to Chen to sell.

Fortunately, these few families brought money with them when they came. Only Aunt Li's family was really hard-pressed and could only make up half of the copper money, so they mortgaged their family jade bracelet to Xie Zhilan. She said it was passed down from her mother-in-law. Hers, although not worth much, is of great significance.

Originally, the Chen family didn't want to accept it, but Xie Zhilan accepted it frankly in front of everyone.

One yard counts for one yard. If you start to engage in favors from the beginning, everyone will come to her to talk about favors in the future. Will this business still work?
When the 'wholesalers' were gone, Mrs. Chen pulled her daughter aside and complained in a low voice: "You also know that Uncle Li's family is very poor now, why do you have the heart to accept things? They are family heirlooms. This makes people Why don't you say we're not human when you go back?"

"Mom, you are wrong to think so!"

"What's wrong?" Chen frowned.

Being taught by her daughter made her feel very uncomfortable.

Xie Zhilan smiled, and asked her back: "If our family really gave Aunt Li San's family credit, would the other two families also have such thoughts? Would they be thinking that since they can take it without spending money Why should I spend money to sell the goods?"

Chen choked, but still sullenly said: "Mr. Hu's wife is not such a person!"

"You don't think so? Don't you allow people to have such thoughts in their hearts? Mother, this is not how business is done."

"Let's talk about it," she continued, "if we open up to Aunt Li San's family network, will she feel that she owes us a big favor? Will she feel that she is inferior to us when we meet in the future?"

Chen pondered for a while, hesitated, "No way"

"What about you?"

"..."

It's really possible.

Seeing that she understood something, Xie Zhilan smiled slightly and hugged her arm, and continued to explain: "So, now, I only talk about business with Aunt Li and not about feelings. If Aunt Li makes money, it depends on their own ability." They won’t feel that they owe us anything psychologically. Besides, I made it clear in front of everyone yesterday that there is no credit for doing business, and they will be open to others on the first day, and after that We can't do this business anymore!"

After her daughter's analysis, Mrs. Chen also understood, but she still put on a straight face and said: "People say that businessmen are cunning, if you dare to seek profit, I will definitely beat you to death with a broom!"

After finishing speaking, Chen Shi pushed the cart out without looking back, Ji Xiaoyun saw it and quickly followed.

Xie Zhilan: ...

"System, when you practiced no credit, I didn't think about what you would do to you because of your profit. Why did my mother want to kill me when I practiced no credit?"

This is not scientific!
[Maybe it's because this system is not human, so you can't hit it? 】

Xie Zhilan: ...

Mrs. Zheng, who was sick at home, was helping Xie Zhilan clean up in the kitchen. She touched the thick pan, and a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes. She had never seen such a big pan before!
The most important thing is that the cakes made in this pan are really delicious!

Who is Huzi's father?Where did he get such a big pot?
"You're still sick, go back and rest, I'll clean up here." Xie Zhilan came in with a rag.

Although Zheng's fever is no longer present, she is a patient after all, with a plain pale face, making her, the 'boss', really unable to bear to be too oppressive.

Mrs. Zheng smiled, moved her hand away from the pot, and explained somewhat cautiously: "I just thought this pot was too strange, so I took a look."

Xie Zhilan didn't care, "It's okay, I'll use it every day from now on, I'll get used to it after watching too much!"

"By the way, Miss Xie, I think you have taught them a lesson today. What if they don't come to sell your cakes and plan to make them yourself?" Mrs. Zheng asked a question that had been in her mind for a long time.

"This..."

Xie Zhilan smiled and didn't explain much, just said: "Don't worry, everyone is from the same village, it won't happen."

Not to mention that they can't get white flour now, even if they can get it, the quality is not comparable to that produced by the system, plus the yeast and other additives used for dough are not available in this era, and as far as she knows, this time and space At present, no one understands the traditional way of making dough, so even if they know how to make cakes, they can't make the same thing.

"Then, what if?" Mrs. Zheng asked a little bit unwillingly.

Xie Zhilan didn't understand why she was so worried about this, so she patted the pan, "You can't make such delicious crispy cakes without this pan, so don't worry!"

So the secret is this pot?
