Looking at the consistent money in front of him, Han Qianluo frowned, very troubled, what should he do now.Before he could come up with a solution, there were rustling sounds outside and some footsteps from time to time. It was obvious that Han Qingquan had returned.

Until dinner at night, Han Qianluo still couldn't figure out a solution, and was very troubled. He bit the steamed bun in his hand for a while, and his absent-minded appearance aroused Han Qingquan's curiosity: "Xiao Luo, what are you doing?" gone?"

"Brother, I plan to buy some sugar cane to make sugar, but I don't have that much money." Han Qianluo said honestly, she knew that it was impossible for her elder brother to come up with the money, but they were all a family, and she didn't want to spend money on everything. Keep it secret, whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, you must tell your family members.

Han Qingquan raised his head and looked at Han Qianluo: "How far is it?"

"It's about ten pennies short."

When Han Qianluo said this, he was actually a little guilty. Ten pennies, although not an astronomical figure for ordinary peasants, could only be saved if they did not eat or drink for several years. A lot of money.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Han Qingquan frowned and didn't speak. After a while, he said: "Our family really doesn't have such a large amount of money. If it's less, we can borrow it, but with so much money , I’m afraid it’s not easy to borrow.”

"Third Sister." Han Sanwei interrupted suddenly, "We can go to Brother Liu for help."

Before Han Qianluo had time to say something, Han Qingquan quickly scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, and, in the future, you can't call me that anymore, you should call him Your Majesty."

Han Sanwei probably didn't have any idea about these things, and he just asked in confusion after hearing this: "But brother Liu doesn't mind, why did he change his name to His Majesty?"

Generally, adults basically just order a child like Han Sanwei, and few people will explain patiently, but Han Qingquan is different, and he will patiently explain to Han Sanwei: "Sanwei, although Your Majesty I don't mind, but if some bad-hearted people know about it, they will use it as an excuse to harm us."

"Oh, I understand." Han Sanwei replied with a flat mouth, a little unhappy.

After hearing this, Han Qianluo was really surprised, but he didn't think too much about it, and then continued to worry about money, saying that a penny is not a hero, but now there is more than a penny, Han Qianluo really There is absolutely no way.

"Brother, why don't we borrow some from each other?" Han Qianluo suggested.

"That's all. I'll borrow it tomorrow."

The next morning, Han Qianluo set off for the capital with the cake he made the day before. Although Han Qianluo didn't need to set up a stall, he got up very early, so it was still early when he arrived in the capital.

When he arrived at Maji Restaurant, Han Qianluo realized that Ma Qiaozhong had already been waiting for her, and Han Qianluo felt embarrassed for letting him wait like this, and quickly said: "I'm really sorry, I'm late. "

"Please come in quickly." Shopkeeper Ma said with a smile, and led Han Qianluo upstairs, "Don't feel sorry for Miss Han, it's just that I'm an idler with nothing to do."

Han Qianluo followed Ma Qiaozhong into a private room, and as soon as he walked in, he found that it was different. In the past, the seats in the private room were tables like coffee tables, and then there were bamboo mats next to them, which were regarded as seats, but now How could Han Qianluo not be surprised that he had changed into a table and chair.

"This is a kind of seat that has been handed down from the palace. It is very popular among the nobles. My small restaurant has followed suit and made some such seats." Ma Qiaozhong explained with a smile, sitting casually on the stool.

Han Qianluo came so many times, so he was not polite. He picked a stool and sat down, and then took out the finished cake. Since it was the first trial sale, and he didn't intend to make small profits but sell quickly The way, so I didn't do much, that is, I only made two sets.

As soon as the cake was taken out, the whole room was instantly filled with the smell of the cake, which was very attractive.Ma Qiaozhong sniffed the cake and said with a smile, "This cake smells so delicious that I can't help but want to eat it."

"The shopkeeper Ma is really absurd." Han Qianluo said very modestly on the surface, but in fact he was very proud of himself.

"Miss Han, last time I just said it briefly, this time I will tell you my thoughts in detail, and then we can discuss things in the future." Ma Qiaozhong said seriously.

Han Qianluo also put away the smile on his face, and said solemnly: "Please tell me, shopkeeper Ma."

"This time, for this pastry, I plan to partner with Miss Han. The money you sell is seven and three, and you are in charge of making the pastry. As for the sale, I will be in charge, but you can't sell it yourself, or you can sell it with me What does Ms. Han think about other people's cooperation?" Ma Qiaozhong looked at Han Qianluo and said.

Han Qianluo didn't think too long after listening to it, and agreed very simply. In her opinion, there is no big difference, it's all about making money.However, Ma Qiaozhong was a little surprised by being so straightforward, but then she returned to her usual appearance, and said frankly: "Miss Han is so straightforward, I am a little surprised."

"Well, do you want to sign a document or something?" Han Qianluo asked, she naturally hoped to sign a contract or something, so that if there were any problems in the future, it would be easy to explain clearly.

"I've already prepared this." Ma Qiaozhong said, and took out two pieces of cloth from his body. Yes, they are two pieces of cloth, but they are very ordinary cloth, not the expensive silk like Liu Ying used to paint. silk.

Han Qianluo took the two pieces of cloth and spread them out on the table. They were two identical pieces of cloth, about the size of two palms of an adult, and they were densely written with small seal characters.

Fortunately, he learned to read and write during this time, Han Qianluo thought very fortunately, otherwise he would be ashamed today.Thinking of this, she picked it up and read the content carefully. The reason why she said carefully was because she was not very familiar with these Xiaozhuan characters, and she didn't know all the characters, but there were very few characters she didn't know, so it didn't affect it.

"Is this a fingerprint or a signature?" Han Qianluo asked, placing the cloth on the table again.

"Get your fingerprints on."

After both of them stamped their fingerprints, Ma Qiaozhong continued, "Miss Han, can you tell me the cost of making these two pastries, so that I can also set a price."

Hearing this, Han Qianluo felt a little surprised. Why hasn't the price been set yet? Isn't it going to start trial sales today?Han Qianluo didn't think about it at all. In fact, she didn't think about how to sell this cake before she came.

Probably understanding Han Qianluo's doubts, Ma Qiaozhong quickly explained: "I plan not to sell the cakes today, but give them away. Those who spend money on eating or shopping will give a free copy."

Han Qianluo was a little embarrassed, scratched his head and said: "Actually, shopkeeper Ma doesn't need to tell me, I don't know anything about this kind of thing." After a pause, he continued: "However, this pastry costs a lot of money, and the specific amount is also unknown. It’s hard to say, but it’s at least a hundred, and the eggs alone cost thirty Wen.”

Han Qianluo quickly calculated the cost in his mind. Eggs cost 36 cents and [-], and a total of [-] were used, which is [-] cents. There is also flour, which is a fine grain, and it is also a very expensive item. There are also things that cannot be calculated. Milk, and white sugar, but they are not cheap.After calculating it in this way, Han Qianluo realized that the cost was really not a little high.

"I made a rough estimate. About three or four hundred cash is needed, because some things are made by myself, so it's hard to calculate the price." Han Qianluo said.

After listening to Han Qianluo's words, Ma Qiaozhong also thought about it, then came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "Miss Han, let's go back first, let's do so much tomorrow."

After chatting for a while, Han Qianluo got up to leave, and when he left, he found a piece of cloth pasted on the door of Maji Restaurant, with words written all over it.Han Qianluo looked at it roughly, and seemed to say that today is a good day, and then how much money you spend can get a free gift.

After leaving Maji Restaurant, Han Qianluo planned to see if there were hens that could lay eggs for sale, so he walked all the way to the place where live poultry were sold.

Han Qianluo seldom goes to the market where live poultry is sold, and this is only the third time he has come here, but there are quite a lot of people in this place, it is very lively, and there are voices of bargaining everywhere.

"Why do you look like a sick chicken?"

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't buy it."

……

"Your duck is too expensive, can it be cheaper?"

……

All in all, the whole market is very noisy and really a bad place for people who like quiet.However, Han Qianluo didn't care, and wandered around the market slowly, looking for old hens that could lay eggs.

"Miss, do you want to buy chicken? It's very cheap. Let's take a look." The peddler greeted warmly.

Han Qianluo stopped by the peddler, squatted down and carefully looked at the chickens sold by the peddler. There were quite a few hens, but they might have to be reared for a while before laying eggs.

"You chicken can't lay eggs, right?" Han Qianluo said, standing up and preparing to go to the next house.

"Girl, who would be willing to sell this laying chicken? Even if there is one, the price is very expensive. Why don't you just buy a hen from me, and after a while it will be able to lay eggs." It was an active persuasion, hoping that Han Qianluo could buy her chicken.

However, Han Qianluo was indeed persuaded, and turned back to ask: "Then how much is your chicken?"

"Thirteen cents a catty, it's very cheap, which one do you want the girl to buy?" The peddler asked enthusiastically, and while he was talking, he reached out and grabbed a hen and said, "How about this one, I absolutely can't buy it." How long will it take to lay eggs."
