Chapter 420 Nansheng City

At five o'clock in the morning, the train slowly entered Nansheng City, which is the provincial capital of Gan Province. It is much more prosperous than Dasha City, with a population and area three times that of Dasha City.

Before dawn, there were a lot of hawking sounds on the platform. People living nearby crossed the railway tracks to deliver their home-made goods to the train. It was more lively than the market in the village.

"Didn't I tell you not to cross the railway tracks? Stand back and don't fall off the platform!"

The conductors on the platform kept shouting, trying to push back the crowds that kept coming. The station in Nansheng City happened to be built next to a village. There were no guardrails around the rails. There was only a red and white pole to give warnings. Please don't cross.

But this warning has no effect at all. Since everyone discovered the shortcut that can quickly enter the station, everyone has regarded this place as the best farmer's market, selling soy milk in the morning and steamed buns at noon. Every household has become rich quickly, and some have already A two-story building was built.

"Comrade, do you want breakfast? There's hot soy milk and hot pastry. It's 3 cents each."

Things on the platform were sold at extremely high prices, almost three or four times the cost price. They took note of the fact that passengers on the train could not leave the platform and arbitrarily raised the prices. Most people would obediently pay the bill and suffer a dumb loss.

"The food you eat is too expensive. It only costs 1 cents each when you leave the platform." Some passengers want to bargain and use the few minutes before the train starts to start a game with these small vendors. They are not satisfied with this kind of thing. Not surprisingly, everyone is extremely patient.

"You can't get out now, right? We are the only one who can provide you with a mouthful of hot food. Don't think that these things come easily. You may die at any time if you cross the railway tracks."

These people were very smart. They put the hot soy milk into a thermos bottle and it was still hot when they carried it to the station. It was a timely help in this cold weather.

Many people gave in and walked to the door to buy things before the train left. Nansheng City is a big station, and the train will stop here for 10 minutes to rest, leaving plenty of time for everyone.

Bai Meixi followed the crowd out of the car. She took a look and found that the food everyone sold was relatively simple. They were all hot soup, hot steamed buns and the like. A thermos bottle couldn't hold much, so at most five or six portions were sold in the thermos bottle. Everything will be sold out, so there is no competition with her.

She found a corner and hid in the space to wash up. Aunt Liu's family had already gotten up. The fire in the stove was burning brightly, and a large pot of hot porridge kept sizzling on the stove.The two men were working in the fields, and even the children were busy, weeding weeds, feeding pigs, carrying water and watering the fields. Everyone was doing a decent job.

Bai Meixi took a look into the kitchen and found that Aunt Liu had only cooked some white porridge, not even the steamed buns. She only placed a small plate of pickled vegetables next to it.Bai Meixi felt that the food she prepared was too simple. Everyone was so tired recently, how could they only eat these non-nutritious things.

"Aunt Liu, there is not enough food here, just tell me that everyone must have a good breakfast." Bai Meixi felt a little sorry for Aunt Liu's family. Although it is normal for rural people to have two meals a day, they are like cattle and horses these days. How can we rely on these gruels to satisfy our hunger while working day and night? "We are all used to it. We all eat less in the morning. What's more, we cooked so much food last night and left a lot for us. Our stomachs are full." Aunt Liu felt sorry for Bai Meixi about money and life. If you can spend less, spend less.

"Breakfast is the most important thing. It has to be nutritious whether you are hungry or not. If I find that you continue to live on just plain porridge, I will come over and cook for you every day."

Bai Meixi walked around the yard. The chickens in the chicken coop laid a lot of eggs this morning, dozens of them. She collected all the eggs and beat them all into a big basin.Seeing the large basin full of eggs, Aunt Liu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, wondering what Bai Meixi was going to do.

"Aunt Liu, I will teach you how to make a delicious dish. You can make it for your grandson when you have him. It is simple and nutritious."

Bai Meixi was going to make an omelette. She mixed the flour into the egg liquid and put an iron plate on the stove to heat it.This iron plate is a natural pan. Bai Meixi poured the egg liquid on it and formed a round cake with just a touch. It didn't take half a minute. In a short time, she had made dozens of them.

Bai Meixi added a layer of green scallions on top, which looked delicious, delicious, and she felt a little regretful after tasting it. It would have been better if she added some hot white sesame seeds or milk, but this Both things are rare in this era, especially milk. Whether it is fresh milk or milk powder, they are all available in limited quantities based on tickets. Only people with children at home can enjoy it. Bai Meixi's family does not meet this condition.

"Xiao Hu, you know so many things. This egg pancake is so delicious. I have never eaten anything so delicious." Aunt Liu took a bite and immediately praised it. Bai Meixi made the egg pancake so soft. It's fragrant and melts in your mouth. Even without any sauce, it's very smooth.She immediately served these egg pancakes to the table and received unanimous praise from everyone.

"As long as everyone likes it, let's make more later." Bai Meixi immediately added this egg pancake to her breakfast. She was worried that the things she sold in the morning were too monotonous, but now with the addition of these egg pancakes, it is It's a formal breakfast.

Aunt Liu is a very fast learner. She ate a few mouthfuls of rice and then returned to the stove to get busy. She poured all the eggs left in the house into the basin and made 200 egg pancakes with Bai Meixi. After coming out, these egg pancakes are warmed in the residual fire of the stove. They will be hot no matter when they are taken out for sale.

Coupled with the 500 tea eggs pickled last night and the fried melon seeds that have not been sold out, Bai Meixi's business in the morning is considered to be successful.

She took inventory of the things in the space. All the eggs here had been used up, and other things were gradually bottoming out. She had to go to the farmer's market to purchase more things. According to the current demand, eggs alone had to be prepared every day. At least a thousand, plus other meat and vegetables, Bai Meixi would have to haul back hundreds of kilograms of food today to have enough.

Bai Meixi drank another bowl of hot porridge, and the coldness in her body was swept away. She thought of the scene she saw on the train in the morning, and made a small calculation in her mind. In such a cold weather, everyone attaches great importance to breakfast. Temperature, it would be better if she could find soy milk or tofu curd this time. With these hot things, breakfast would be better and she could make more money.
