Dressed as a mother-in-law, she leads the whole family to turn over

Chapter 68 Making money

"I made two pots, one salty and one sweet. I thought the sweet one might be difficult to sell because it was expensive, but I didn't expect it to sell faster than the salty one!" Liu Ye said excitedly, with bright eyes. , eyes full of hope for life.

Yang Datou hurriedly took a closer look and found that it was exactly what Liu Ye said. The sweet cakes were almost gone, and there was only one-tenth of the salty cakes left. It was just the first hour of the year, and the night was still long. After another hour, it would be almost gone. Can be sold out.

He didn't want A Niang and Liu Ye to work so hard, so he quickly urged them to go back and rest.

Liu Ye didn't want to leave, so Jiang Ning went back first.

She was not idle after she got back. She was too busy today and didn't have time to process the shrimps. If she peeled the shrimps, made them into shrimp paste, stir-fried them with garlic sprouts and put them into the salted cakes, the taste would definitely be better. Bian Xiaoxiao is not valuable, and the cost is only a little more, but the business will definitely be better.

As Jiang Ning thought about it, the speed of his hands could not help but increase.

She had just finished cleaning up the shrimps, Yang Datou and Liu Ye, and returned from the stall.

Seeing the expressions on their faces, Jiang Ning felt confident, and hurriedly invited them to dinner. The dinner was a simple seafood porridge with some mushrooms, eggs, shrimps and vegetables in it, which was quite hearty.

After dinner, the three of them immediately hid in the house to settle accounts.

A pot of salty cake weighs almost thirty kilograms, and the sweet cake is heavier, about thirty-five kilograms. Excluding the ones cut out for tasting, the total income is one hundred and forty-five kilograms, not counting the stone mill and steamer. The cost of two pots was about fifty cents, which meant that their net profit for the night was less than a hundred cents.

This was only set up for one night. If it was set up during the day, the profit in one day would still be very considerable.

Yang Datou was very happy, "It seems that my decision was right!"

Liu Ye was so excited by this result that she shouted as if she had been given a shot of chicken blood: "Auntie, I'll be out of the stall before dawn!"

"That's not necessary!" Jiang Ning's forehead was covered with black lines, signaling for the two of them to calm down, "Although business is not bad tonight, everyone is doing something new tonight. If we want to do long-term business, we must retain customers. I just said to The Xian Kueh has been improved, we will try it again tomorrow morning.

In addition, it is not enough to just have salty cakes in the morning. We at least have to prepare something for people to drink, such as soy milk. I have just soaked the beans. Tomorrow I have to grind the beans to make soy milk, and make another broth, depending on what people want. Sweet or savory, there are also stalls.

Since you want to set it up, you definitely need a decent stall, preferably one that can be pushed around. Put a stove underneath and a pot above to make sure the food is hot. Otherwise, who will eat it when it's cold? "

The young couple was shocked by Jiang Ning's words. Yang Datou was so anxious that he immediately walked out. He didn't know where he was going at night. Fortunately, Songxi Town was like a city that never sleeps, and it was quite lively at night. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law There is nothing to worry about.

Jiang Ning went back to the house to sleep immediately after explaining the matter. He had to get up early tomorrow morning to work.

Not long after she lay down, she fell into a deep sleep. When she woke up again, she found that the room was still dark, but there was a lot of movement outside. She hurried out to take a look and found that Liu Ye was actually grinding beans, and there was constant smoke in the kitchen. water vapor.

Yang Datou was tinkering with a cart. It seemed that the stove was not installed properly, and he was the one who caused the movement.

"Have you been awake all night?" Jiang Ning stepped forward, took a closer look at the two of them, and wanted to call them crazy.

Yang Datou said excitedly: "Auntie, I can't sleep. According to what you said, I found someone to get a cart, which can hold four stoves, two steamers, a pot of soy milk and a pot of meat. Soup, Ye Zi and I have calculated it. A bowl of soy milk costs one penny and broth costs two cents. Do you agree?"

"You've already made up your mind, can you do it?" Jiang Ning laughed and took the cart, "I'll do it. You guys go and have a rest. You'll be able to set up the stall in about half an hour." But Yang Datou and his wife are really serious. They were too excited and refused to go back to the house no matter what. Jiang Ning had no choice but to continue to leave them in the yard to work.

We were fully prepared today. As soon as we left the stall, someone came over smelling the fragrance, and there were quite a few of them. Seeing that they were either carrying fishing nets or fish baskets, they probably belonged to the same village or clan. With such a large formation, it was very likely that they were from the same village. Get on the big ship.

Fishermen like this are different from the Dan people. They have industries on land, can farm and fish, and their conditions are better than those of ordinary farmers.

A group of people sat down and chatted and laughed. A few people from Jiangning were just busy eating, but this group of people ate and packed up and finished half a pot of salty cakes in one go.

Liu Ye was stunned. When the person walked away, she said excitedly: "Mom, luckily I made an extra pot of salted cakes today, otherwise we wouldn't be able to sell them at noon."

As soon as he finished speaking, another guest came.

The three of them continued to work. The business in the morning was better than that in the evening. The items were almost sold out soon. Liuye wanted to continue to display, but Jiang Ning stopped him, "We can't make enough money. From now on, we will display the goods in the morning and In the evening, go back to rest at noon and combine work and rest."

Yang Datou nodded repeatedly, "Auntie is right. I have to go to the inn to cook at noon, and I can't help you. It's better to close the stall and go back to rest and prepare for the evening meal."

Liu Ye was persuaded by the two before giving up.

On this day, they spent the morning and evening, and the total net profit turned out to be almost 400 taels. Judging from today's situation, it will almost remain at this number in the future. Based on this calculation, there are almost 12 taels a month, which is far from It's more than Yang Datou's monthly salary, which means it's hard work, but everyone has been through hard work, so this little bit of hard work doesn't matter!
  Liu Ye felt that there was hope for the future, and she looked much more confident and cheerful than before.

Jiang Ning was also happy and said to the young couple: "I will go back early tomorrow morning. You should take it easy. If there is anything you can't handle, you can ask Pan Xiuniang to give me a message. From now on, she will send oysters to our family every now and then." "

Liu Ye and Yang Datou nodded repeatedly, their eyes full of reluctance.

Early the next morning, Jiang Ning got up and helped Liu Ye with some work while they sent her to the port.

The port in the early morning was filled with the coolness brought by the river water. Jiang Ning stood on the shore for a while and saw Pan Xiuniang rowing the boat over, and quickly jumped on.

She looked at a boat full of oysters and frowned, "Sister Pan, where will you and your child sleep at night?"

Pan Xiuniang motioned her to look to the other side. There were two narrow spaces over there, with two quilts placed on them. People could only curl up there and couldn't lie flat at all.

"That's where you guys sleep?" Jiang Ning frowned.

Pan Xiuniang didn't take it seriously, "No! Oysters are heavy and take up space. We can't hold many of them unless we free up the cabin!"

"You won't be able to have a good rest like this!" Jiang Ning felt a little guilty.

Pan Xiuniang shook her head, "It's getting cold. I plan to rent a house in Songxi Town. Our mother and daughter will go ashore at night and disembark during the day."

Seeing Jiang Ning looking at her curiously, Pan Xiuniang lowered her voice and explained carefully.
