314, Ruzi can teach
The carriage was driving on the wide official road in Tianshui Town. At this moment, the sky was clear. The horse's hooves splashed the accumulated water on the ground, and shone with shattered golden light in the sun.
"It feels so good to make money!" Dan Tai Furong showed a rich cat-like smile, "This is the real money making! We used to learn how to buy and sell things just to play houses." As she said that, she began to count the money again.
Ruicai was originally in the carriage to rest. After hearing this, he opened one eye and looked at the other person: "It's only a little money in total, you've counted it eight times."
"So little money? This is a big deal!" Dan Tai Furong shook her heavy money bag, "Twenty-four taels! My monthly money is only ten taels!"
"Then you have a lot of money. My mother only gave me six taels, and my grandmother gave me two taels. There were only eight taels in total." Ruicai said.
Dan Tai Furong was only concerned about counting the money: "My rouge powder is sold in a Kyoto shop but only sold for two taels a box. Unexpectedly, I sold for two taels in the town!" As she said that, she took out a box of fragrant powder from her purse. It was a very particular Shujin packaging, and there was a gold-plated peach leaf shape in one corner. "Fortunately, I left a box for myself. If I sold it all, I would have no use!"
"I am really worthy of being the legitimate granddaughter of the Dan Tai family. I have to bring ten or eight boxes of rouge when I go out." Ruicai teased her.
"Anyway, Taoye Du is our shop, I take as much as I like." Dan Tai Furong touched the golden peach leaf logo on the fragrant powder box, "Why are you so embarrassed to take my parents' rouge for free when I get married in the future?"
It’s really hard to say what happened in the future. If my grandmother and mother were in charge of the family, it would be fine. If the “Taoye Du” fell into my sister-in-law’s hands, my sister-in-law would probably not be able to get half a box of rouge.
Tan Tai Furong suddenly smiled and said, "Hey, I used to think you wanted to be my sister-in-law."
Ruicai was stunned and remembered the peony banquet held by the Dantai family in spring. The young master of the Dantai family had some meaning to him at that time, but it was left unresolved later. In other words, it was the first time Yingyuan designed hairstyles and clothing for himself, so that he could completely change his appearance from that day on.
Dan Tai Furong pouted: "Who knew that she was not as good as you in the end when the girl from the Yao family was finally decided!"
After hearing this, Ruicai was neither crying nor laughing, and didn't know how to answer.
"You don't know that on the day they got engaged, the wife of the in-laws actually said in public that Tao Yao was homophonic, which was a fate made of heaven and earth." Dan Tai Furong's expression at this time was quite similar to the expression when Xizi talked about Jiang Qiuyi, "Did their Yao family marry our Dan Tai family or Tao Yedu? The Dan Tai family has not yet separated, and no one said that Tao Yedu is to be distributed to the eldest master. Girls, don't bother, there are two brothers under the eldest master!"
It seems that every family has difficult sutras to recite.
Ruicai said: "Yingyuan didn't teach you yesterday. You should take advantage of this trip to the countryside to train and sell your Taoye Du's rouge powder. Maybe the rouge powder business can be divided into you to make a dowry!"
"I'm afraid our ancestors will not be able to bear it."
"You see, the Jin family, which was rich in the country back then, was divided into three major corpuses, ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum and musk. These are not the small corpuses of Cordyceps and Bird's Nest." Ruicai did not think there was anything that could not be divided.
Unexpectedly, Dan Tai Furong was upset about this unknown: "The three major things about Taoyedu, clothes, jewelry and powder, have been sold for decades, and I really can't bear to take them apart... Let's do this, if the head of the Yao family, I'd rather have to take them away! If someone else changes me, I have to consider it."
Hearing this tone, it seemed as if their ancestors had already made up their mind to give her the powder as a dowry!
Ruicai couldn't help laughing, and looked at a big money bag beside Dan Tai Furong. He specially exchanged one tael of silver for 1,000 cents and said that it was easy to spend money in the village: "We are also lucky today. We actually met the daughter of a squire in Tianshui Town in front of the powder shop. Whether her family is the richest man in the town, she was willing to spend more than twenty taels of silver to buy all our goods!"
"Fortunately, I met her, otherwise we would have to wear a slut with the proprietress of the powder shop!" Dan Tai Furong counted the money before looking at the student assistant Nijie who had been silent: "Why don't you speak for a long time after aiding students?"
Ni Jie kept thinking about things, but when she heard someone calling her, she looked up and said, "I was just wondering, if Yingyuan was there, would she sell all these powders to the gentry's daughter?"
"Of course I have to buy it for that rich daughter!" Dan Tai Furong looked as if she was taken for granted, "Isn't we going to the market this time just to make money! If we sell it to a cosmetic shop, we can sell it at most one or two! If we sell it to that rich daughter, we make at least twice as much. If we don't make money, we will be a fool!"
"After all, we have to do business in the long run, rather than just doing one-time business." Ni Jie said.
"Don't tease me!" Tan Tai Furong laughed, "We're only staying in the countryside for three days, how dare we talk about long-term business!"
Ruicai said for a long time: "I'm afraid we'll stay for more than three days. This time, there will be such a big battle in school, so we won't stay for only three days."
Dan Tai Furong's expression instantly fell from heaven to hell: "How long will it take to stay for three days? Three months? Three years?! Hell on earth!! I want to drop out of school!!"
Ruicai patted Dan Tai Furong and expressed her comfort: "How can we start school after staying for so long? I think we can stay for at most ten days and a half months. We start school every year on August 16th, so we have to let everyone go to the Mid-Autumn Festival in our school."
"Yes, we have to celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival." Dan Tai Furong murmured, "Today is July 22nd, and there are more than 20 days left by August 15th... I don't care. If the three-day deadline is reached, most of them will go back, and I will follow you!"
"Don't think about it here, who knows what the mountain captain thinks?" Ni Jie lifted the curtain and looked outside the car. "I'm here with Du Yu. It is said that the deworming medicine made in this village is the most effective."
"Yu Du, why do the village have such a name? Isn't that an old lady named Du..." Dan Tai Furong also stretched out her neck and looked out, "Hey! I said why is it so fragrant! There are scallion oil pancakes on the roadside! It smells so fragrant! Let's buy a few scallion oil pancakes to eat! Uncle, how do you sell these pancakes? Master, stop first!"
Ruicai and the others watched Dan Tai Furong excitedly and domineeringly, they shouted to park the car. I wonder if the decadent and frustrated girl who cried "Hell on Earth" just now was the same person.
Ruicai interrupted, "Didn't you agree to go back and eat meat buns? Yingyuan and the others have steamed a lot of meat buns!"
"Who knows whether it can be steamed or not? Tang Yingyuan is quite capable. The other two are all decorations, not as good as me!" Dan Tai Furong has always been merciless, "We bought scallion oil pancakes and everyone has to eat them!"
Ruicai settled the score in his mind. He had bought the window screen and tea stove, but he couldn't buy the big bathtub, so he had to buy two clean large wooden tubs first. The other necessities to buy were those anti-worm medicines.
Thinking about this, Dan Tai Furong had already got off the car: "How much does it cost per pound? Cut a small piece first and let me taste it? If it tastes good, it's more, and there are many people in our family!"
Dan Tai Furong got out of the car, and the car suddenly became much quieter.
Ruicai took out ten cents to show Nijie, and Nijie added five cents to him. Ruicai nodded, patted the front carriage, and handed the fifteen cents to the driver from the window: "You have worked hard all the way. You have gone far away to the town and then walked back from Du Yu. These money is not much, so it is enough to make some loose wine."
The coachman naturally took it happily: "Miss Thank you for your reward! We will leave Du Yu, are we going to Xiaowangzhuang?"
Ruicai said: "No need, just go back to Dawangzhuang later."
While talking, Dan Tai Furong came over with a large bag of scallion pancakes with oil paper: "Eat while it's hot! It's more fragrant than fried buns! Master, come and try it together!"
Ni Jie took the big oil-paper bag from her: "This is seven or eight kilograms! Where can I eat so much!"
"If you can't finish it, let's sell it! I bought 8 cents per pound. I bought 10 pounds, and asked him to give me half a pound!" Dan Tai Furong said as she tore off a piece of scallion oil pancake and stuffed it into Nijie's mouth: "Is it delicious? We sell 10 cents per pound for ten cents per pound. There is also a scallion oil pancake in the town just now, which is sold 10 cents per pound! Besides, those students must have made money at Xiaowangzhuang's market today, so they must reward themselves!"
"I can buy it at the market, but I don't need yours." Ruicai also tore off a small piece and ate it. Sure enough, it felt fragrant and chewy, and had a strong smell of scallion oil.
At this time, the carriage had continued to move forward. Dan Tai Furong smiled mysteriously: "I just asked the uncle who sold scallion oil pancakes. In the nearby villages, he only made scallion oil pancakes. He originally wanted to go to Xiaowangzhuang to sell cakes, but he gave up when the weather was not good. He could only sell it at the entrance of his own village. According to the uncle, the market in Xiaowangzhuang is very small and there are even fewer foods. There is only a frying fried dough sticks in the early morning, a mutton soup at noon, and a sauté pancakes in the oven. It is said that the family will not leave a stall for weddings at home today, and the rest is the uncle's scallion oil pancakes."
Oh, the boy is teachable, so I learned to do market research.
Ruicai nodded unconsciously: "Students get up late and will definitely not be able to eat fried dough sticks. The mutton soup is served in bowls. The girls like to clean it, but they refuse to eat the street stalls in the countryside."
Ni Jie nodded. Yesterday, she thought that Dan Tai Furong in the group was the biggest problem and she must drag her back on the whole group. Who knew that this guy had such potential and was really worth exploring.
...
It was already an hour later that I had bought the anti-worm medicine and returned to Dawangzhuang.
"Fortunately, I ate the scallion pancake, otherwise I would have fainted from hunger." Dan Tai Furong was the first to jump out of the carriage when she saw the familiar village road, but was stunned by the scene in front of her.
There was a stall in front of the gate, and Youqing and Yingyuan were shouting to sell buns!
"This, are these two big baskets steamed buns you guys?" Dan Tai Furong couldn't believe it.
"Here you back?!" Xiaoxiao welcomed us enthusiastically, "Try our buns, including fresh meat, sauce meat, and pumpkin and eggs!"
Dantai Furong took a white and fat bun, lowered her head and took a bite. The filling was full of fresh and fragrant meat filling, which was so delicious! It was not as delicious as the scallion pancake just now. Dantai Furong asked while chewing the buns, "Is this your skills? It tastes the same as the sauce-fried pork buns in Jinchunlou!"
"It's the sauce-frost-meat filling made by Sister Shuangju. Her mother used to be a chef in Jinchunlou. Although she didn't know the secret recipe, she also mastered 80% of the ingredients!" Youqing smiled.
Ni Jie first looked at the recruitment red paper posted on the wall: "You just mentioned it last night, and today I will put it into practice."
Xiaoxiao said, "No, once you think about it, you have to start quickly, otherwise someone else will take the lead." He said that, and handed a bun to Nijie, "How are you doing today?"
Ni Jie said: "I have bought everything I should buy, and I have sold everything I should sell."
"Beautiful!" Xiaoxiao snapped his fingers.
Ni Jie inexplicably thought that this finger-knocking action was very handsome.
Ruicai ate two bites of buns, looked around, and asked Xiaoxiao unconsciously: "Where is Xizi? Why don't you see her?"
Xiaoxiao whispered, "Lying on the kang. I was scared today, and the pig that I killed was thrilling in the blood."
Ruicai frowned: "But you were frightened by the cut pig's head?"
"And a large pot of fresh uncrushed pig blood."
