Chapter 440 Ding's family sells tofu in the county town
When we arrived at Yun's house, shopkeeper Wu said that the good things on the carriage were for Gu Miao to practice for free, if Gu Miao didn't want to take advantage, then teach the two cooks a few special dishes!

He really wants to surpass Piaoxiangju in cooking!
"Okay." Gu Miao was not polite.

Shopkeeper Wu is kind-hearted, and she is on her side, so she will naturally benefit Shopkeeper Wu.

"It just so happens that the yard used to feed the livestock has been built over there. Let them live there, and the Ding family will send people over soon," Gu Miao said.

The helpers sent by Wenxianglou and Ding's family are long-term workers, and she has to arrange a place for them to live. It just so happens that the yard for feeding livestock over there has been built, and there are some finishing work left to accommodate people.

"Success." Shopkeeper Wu has no objection to this.

So the matter was settled.

When Gu Miao and shopkeeper Wu were discussing the recipes, the village head Meng Xizhou Yunmojiang in the county seat first met old man Ding, and then the four of them went to the county magistrate to talk about road construction.

The county government doesn't care about the road construction. Every few years, the county magistrate will order the people in the village to repair it. Now the village head Jiang came to him on his own initiative and confessed the situation. The county magistrate agreed without even thinking about it.

Road construction, a good thing that benefits the people, does not require him to spend money or effort, and the old man Zhu from the capital also came, so he has no reason to stop it.

build!
The county magistrate decided to build a road, so he had to call the heads of several villages that the road passed through, and everyone sat down to discuss the specific details. Back to the village, Mr. Ding went back to Ding's house to make tofu.

Shopkeeper Wang made a surprise attempt to squeeze Gu Miao out of business, so now the Ding family has to drive the tofu from shopkeeper Wang out of the county. Starting today, the Ding family will open a tofu shop in the county town to sell tofu at a price of one penny per catty.

Shopkeeper Wang’s tofu also sells for one penny per catty. Small traders buy tofu from Piaoxiangju and transport it to the county town, where they sell it at a price of two pennies per catty, so that they can earn one penny per catty.

Now the Ding family sells tofu directly in the county, at a price of one penny per catty, which is half cheaper than those sold by small traders, and the Ding family has also imitated the old method of the shopkeeper Wang, and sent Dingman to shout from the county:
From now on, Ding's family will also start selling tofu. It costs a penny and a catty, and the taste is the same as that of Piaoxiangju. Welcome folks to Ding's tofu shop to taste it!
A loud yell aroused the curiosity of the people in the county, and the Ding family also sells tofu?
A penny a catty?
Go buy some and try it!
Da'an County is not much bigger than Yong'an Town, even people from the fringes of the county can quickly go to Dingjia Tofu Factory. In the past, small vendors delivered tofu to the door, but now they have to go to Dingjia Tofu Factory to buy by themselves. Can save a penny!
Not all people living in the county are rich, so everyone is willing to save this penny.

When everyone arrived at Ding's Tofu Shop, they first tasted it for free. The taste was indeed the same as the one sold in Piaoxiangju, and many people paid for it.

People in the county town bought Ding's tofu one after another. As a result, the tofu from small vendors could not be sold.

Those small traders were dumbfounded.

Piaoxiangju's tofu tastes exactly the same as Ding's, but the price is twice as expensive. Even wealthy families will not buy Piaoxiangju's tofu.

Therefore, those small traders either sold the tofu at the price of one penny per catty, or went back to Yong'an Town to find Piaoxiangju to return the tofu.
