The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 410: Adding roasted sweet potatoes to the market

Bai Meixi completed her big shopping at the farmer's market and dragged a lot of things back into the space. The basket of vegetables and fruits made several children in the room swallow their saliva subconsciously.

"Aunt Liu, everyone has worked hard today. These things are for everyone. You can make them and we can have a good meal."

Bai Meixi put green peppers and cucumbers on the table. The space felt like spring all year round, but Aunt Liu also knew that it was almost winter outside.These things are hard to come by, even if you have money you may not be able to buy them.

This is especially true for poor families like them. It is rare to eat such fresh vegetables even in summer, let alone winter.

"Xiao Hu, you are so polite. We just made some food, so it's worth buying such nice things to thank us."

Aunt Liu was a little embarrassed. She felt that she deserved it, so she insisted on saving more than half of everything and insisted on waiting until Bai Meixi came next time to make it.

"The things left here will break after a long time. Let's make them for everyone tomorrow. It would be a pity if such good things break. We have to do more work in these two days, and there must be good ones. It takes physical strength.”

Bai Meixi has always been generous to the people who work for her. As long as they work together to make money, they will have no problem eating these things.

Aunt Liu collected the things Bai Meixi bought one by one and put them in the water tank where food is usually stored.

Since Aunt Liu's sister's family came, Bai Meixi has placed four or five large water tanks here, each filled with food, for fear that they will not have enough food.

"Why did you buy so many sunflower seeds? These sunflower seeds are all fried. If they are left in the water tank for a long time, the taste will change. How about I put them in the yard to dry, and they can be stored longer. "

Aunt Liu was carrying the several hundred kilograms of sunflower seeds, which felt very heavy. Such things must not be for them to eat, so she volunteered to carry these sunflower seeds to the roof.

Bai Meixi nodded. These sunflower seeds weighed several hundred kilograms, and they couldn't be sold out in a while. They could just be dried.

Aunt Bai Meixi prepared two iron buckets, one for potatoes and one for sunflower seeds. She put charcoal fire at the bottom to keep the food inside warm for two or three hours even in winter.

This was the first time Aunt Liu and the others had seen this kind of device. In the past, open flames were used to bake potatoes or potatoes at home, and the skin would become smeared and look dark.

The method used by Bai Meixi not only allows the potato to be heated evenly, but also keeps the skin's original bright red color, making it look particularly attractive.

Aunt Liu felt that following Bai Meixi was really beneficial. This time she gained knowledge. She could make a similar one when she got home and put it in the field. Put steamed and hot buns in it, so she wouldn't have to eat them cold at noon. It’s time to eat.

The things Bai Meixi needed were quickly prepared. She first transported these things back to her yard, and then returned to the train station through the door of the abandoned factory to set up a stall.

This time her stove was replaced by two old tin barrels, which looked more eye-catching than before. She tapped the edge of the iron barrels with a fire tong to tell everyone that her business was open.

The clanking sound was particularly clear. This sound attracted the attention of many people. She took the opportunity to open the lid of the iron bucket.

The hot roasted potatoes were filled to the brim in the iron bucket. She took out two and placed them on top of the iron bucket. One of them was broken into two halves. The golden color and sweet aroma made everyone salivate.

"This potato is grown at home. It's only a dime each. Come and try it. It's not sweet and you don't have to pay for it." Bai Meixi greeted people immediately when she saw people coming around. She shared the two potatoes on the iron bucket for everyone to taste. .The potatoes grown in the space were extraordinarily large and tasted extraordinarily sweet. One of them could serve as a meal. Everyone felt that the price was worth it, and a dozen of them were sold in a short time.

In another iron bucket, there was a bucket full of sunflower seeds. The hot sunflower seeds were especially crispy. Bai Meixi was generous and did not hesitate to taste them, which won the favor of many people.

Bai Meixi put a teapot in an iron bucket, and it cost five cents to fill the teapot full of melon seeds.

In this era, everything is sold by the pound, and no one has ever done business like this.

In the past, everyone was always worried that small traders would be short of money. Now the method used by Bai Meixi is clear at a glance, and there is no such problem at all.

She filled a jar full for everyone. This method of selling was simple and easy to calculate, and it sounded particularly cheap.

Many people buy a handful of melon seeds while buying potatoes to pass the time while waiting for the bus.

In fact, Bai Meixi's sunflower seeds are not cheap. She has already calculated that 1 kilogram of sunflower seeds can be placed in a tea jar like this, which can hold 12 cups. Calculating the price per kilogram, 1 kilogram can be sold for [-] cents. It was twice as expensive as the price she paid for it.

This time, she won in the sales method. She just changed her thinking and increased her profits without even moving much. This sales method made Bai Meixi feel a little happy in her heart.

The management science she studied in modern society finally came into use, and it was not in vain that she stayed up late to read so many books.

The business at Baimeixi was booming. After a while, all the roasted potatoes and sunflower seeds were sold out.

She returned to the space to get the remaining inventory. In order to avoid suspicion, she would change places every time she sold two barrels and circle around the train station.

There is a lot of traffic in this place, and no one will notice where the rural woman setting up the stall has made so many things.

Bai Meixi's business is getting better and better. She prepared 400 kilograms of roasted sweet potatoes and 30 kilograms of sunflower seeds, which were sold out in just two hours.

Bai Meixi calculated today's income.The roasted sweet potatoes are grown in your own land at no cost.It's a dime each, a net profit of 40 yuan.

30 pounds of sunflower seeds, cost 9 yuan, income 18 yuan, net profit of 9 yuan, plus the money from selling tea eggs in the morning, she really gained a lot this day, which is worth two or three months of many people's income. salary.

She had heard before that in the era when the economy had just opened up, professors in universities did not earn as much as the old ladies selling tea eggs on the roadside, and now it seemed that was indeed the case.

As long as she persists for a year, she can renovate her family's house, and even buy a house in the provincial capital, and move out with Cheng Haiyi to live alone.

Such a record made Bai Meixi decide to keep up her efforts, but first she had to find a place to fill her stomach before she had the strength to do the next thing.
