Chapter 126
Xiaowu immediately covered his head and said, "I'll eat it. If my sister says I can eat it, I can eat it!"

The old man used his chopsticks to pick up a crayfish first, but after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't place his mouth.

Seeing this, Qibao said: "I'm here to teach you how to eat. The butt of the shrimp has the most meat and is the most delicious. Spread its tail from the middle and you can eat the white meat inside. The shrimp in the head The yellow tastes delicious too." Qibao stuffed the shrimp meat into his mouth, squinted his eyes, and immediately looked like he was enjoying it.

The others saw that Qibao's food was so delicious, and it must taste good, so they imitated Qibao and started peeling the shrimp shells.

When the first bite of shrimp meat entered the mouth, everyone's eyes lit up. Wang said while eating, "It's delicious. The meat is tender and fragrant. It's also chewy and not sticky."

Others also agreed with this view. Everyone's mouth was spicy and numb after eating, so they were unwilling to stop using their chopsticks.

Uncle Xu and the others were drinking beer and eating crayfish meat. They were really enjoying themselves. It was Lin who was peeling the crayfish meat for Xiao Liu because Xiao Liu couldn't peel the lobster at all.

Xu Laosan saw that his wife was busy with his son and rarely ate it, so he peeled half a bowl of lobster meat and planned to let his wife eat it later.

Soon five or six cans of beer were consumed, and only some soup and water were left in a large pot of lobster. Uncle Xu and the others still said they didn't have enough.

Everyone else also likes to eat it. The old man said: "Since everyone likes to eat it, our family will go fishing for some when we have time. There are a lot of lobsters in the river."

After dinner and washing up, Qibao was lying on the bed thinking about something. She knew in her previous life that there were many bases dedicated to breeding. She wondered if she could open up the sales market with lobsters and make Xujiacun the first lobster in the country. The industrial chain base of breeding!

However, she wants to bring the whole village together to do it, and she has to wait until she has figured out the details before she can start implementing it.

After thinking about it, Qibao gradually fell asleep.

The next day, shopkeeper Tong arranged for the people who came to sell the fruit wine to come, too, and brought many carriages. Everyone helped move the fruit wine to the carriage, and separated it with thatch in the middle to prevent collision and breakage.

Watching the carriage leave, the Xu family didn't turn around for a long time. This was their family's joint effort for a while, and they didn't know what the outcome would be if they were sent to the capital this time.

Qibao also understood. Everyone who tried to take the first step felt a little uneasy. Moreover, this was the Xu family's first business and it was located in a wealthy place like the capital. It can be said to be a new milestone, so He said: "Everyone can see how our fruit wine tastes, so we don't have to think too much and can rest assured that the quality of the fruit wine will be good."

The old man nodded, and the family returned to the house.

Wang said: "In this weather, you need to wear a coat in the morning and evening. People who are hot when the sun comes out at noon can sweat all over."

Zhang said: "It will be June in a few days, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter. Food will go bad if left for a long time. I will ask the boss to buy less meat when he comes back later. I won't be able to finish this meal." , it stinks."

Qibao imagined this ancient summer scene. Not only did he have a headache, but he didn't have a refrigerator, and he had to wear long sleeves and long trousers, and he wasn't afraid of getting prickly heat. It wasn't like in modern times when he could go out wearing a suspender skirt.

In this era, if a woman leaks a piece of her calf, she will be scolded for being unruly, which is really unfair to women.

Fortunately, Qibao has a space with constant temperature all year round. When it gets hot, you can go in and enjoy the air conditioning, but others have to endure the summer heat.

……

A few days later, shopkeeper Zhang from the barbecue restaurant came to the Xu family.

Qibao was a little surprised and asked: "Why did shopkeeper Zhang come suddenly? Did something happen to the barbecue restaurant?"

Shopkeeper Zhang immediately bent down and said: "There is nothing wrong with the barbecue restaurant, but the business is obviously not as good as before these days." The old man hurriedly asked: "What is the reason for this?"

Shopkeeper Zhang said: "The weather is getting hotter day by day. I have asked the meat vendor to deliver fresh meat every day. I am afraid that the meat will become stale after being stored for a long time. But because our barbecue restaurant uses stoves, It is quite warm in winter, and customers are willing to come to eat, but in summer, the temperature inside the store is hotter than outside. Even with all the windows open, it still feels very hot, and gradually fewer customers come."

When the old man heard this, he was a little anxious, and for a while he didn't know how to solve it.

Qibao was not panicked and said: "I already know the problem you mentioned. I will try to solve it in the past two days. You can do whatever you need to do when you go back."

"Yes, Master, I will go back first." Shopkeeper Zhang left quickly.

The old man asked: "Qibao, do you have any solution?"

Qibao said: "I have a solution, but I have to go to the drug store in town tomorrow to see if I can solve this problem."

The old man and some monks were confused. Does this drug store have anything to do with antipyretics?But he didn't ask any more questions. He didn't understand even if he asked, so he didn't need his granddaughter to waste her time explaining it to him. She would know it by tomorrow.

The rest of the Xu family were also worried when they heard the news, but they felt relieved after hearing Qibao's words that there was a solution.

The next day, Qibao followed his uncle's carriage to the town, and the old man also followed.

After sending their brother and the others to school, the three of them went straight to Leshan Pharmacy.

Shopkeeper Hong was a little surprised to see the three people coming over, and asked: "Old man, why are you here free? I heard that your family is very busy during this time!"

Qibao was the first to say: "Grandpa Hong, we came here today to ask if there is any saltpeter in your pharmacy?"

Shopkeeper Hong asked: "Is anyone in your family sick? This saltpeter has the effect of laxative, clearing fire and reducing swelling. Are you sure you want this medicinal ingredient?"

Qibao said: "Yes, no one in my family is sick. I bought this saltpeter because it has other uses. From what Grandpa Hong said, the drug store should have this thing, right?"

Shopkeeper Hong said: "This is a very common medicinal material. Of course we have it." Qibao added: "Then we need it in large quantities. How much does Grandpa Hong have?"

Shopkeeper Hong asked in surprise: "I have as much saltpeter as I want, but I don't know if you, girl, want so much saltpeter if it's not to cure a disease?"

Qibao said mysteriously: "I have my uses, Grandpa Hong, just sell it to me."

Shopkeeper Hong was a bit dumbfounded and had no choice but to use Qibao, so he said, "Girl, since you don't want to tell me, I won't ask. I'll give you all the saltpeter I currently have in my apothecary."

Shopkeeper Tong asked his clerk to pack all the saltpeter in the store and give it to Qibao and the others, weighing fifty or sixty kilograms, in a sack.

Shopkeeper Hong asked: "Girl, is this much enough? You asked for it too suddenly. We only have these in the store now. I will have more delivered tomorrow."

Qibao said: "Thank you very much, Grandpa Hong. How much money will these cost in total?"

Shopkeeper Hong said with a smile: "This saltpeter is not worth a lot of money, so just treat it as a gift from me. Your pills also made us a lot of money. The price of saltpeter is incomparable."
