24, Chapter 24 (1/2)
Qin Fang and Lu Baifu hunted the wild boars together, so naturally they were half of the same family. There was so much meat that Sister-in-law Lu’s mouth couldn’t even close. She watched her man and Qin Fang treat the wild boar, and chatted with Yang Haiyan: "Haiyan, what are you going to do with so much wild boar?"
Yang Haiyan thought for a while: "I plan to make bacon."
Sister-in-law Lu knew that Yang Haiyan was good at cooking. When she heard that Yang Haiyan planned to make bacon, she was also moved. After all, fresh meat is not easy to preserve, but making bacon is a skill, and she couldn't ask others how to do it.
After a while, Yang Haiyan saw that Sister-in-law Lu did not speak, so she asked: "Fresh meat is not easy to preserve. It is either sold to restaurants or meat stalls or made into bacon. What are your plans, Sister-in-law?"
Sister-in-law Lu sighed: "The winter here is difficult. There is almost no meat in winter, so I plan to sell half of it and make bacon for the rest. But I don't know how to make bacon. Haiyan, I can make it." I’ll give you the meat and ingredients, and I’ll pay you for the labor, and you’ll make some for me?”
Yang Haiyan understood what she meant. Recipes that are not worth mentioning in modern times can be found everywhere on the Internet, but here these recipes are a craft that can be passed down to future generations, so they are very precious. But she said: "Don't go to such trouble, I'll just tell my sister-in-law what to do."
Sister-in-law Lu was embarrassed: "This...but this..."
Yang Haiyan: "It's nothing. I heard it from others when I was in the capital, and many elderly people in the countryside can figure it out themselves. I will go back and write down the process and recipe for my sister-in-law."
Sister-in-law Lu: "Haiyan, thank you."
Yang Haiyan: "Brother Lu and my husband-in-law are colleagues, brothers who live through life and death. Why are my sisters-in-law being polite to me?"
Sister-in-law Lu also stopped talking and said nothing more. She remembered this feeling. Qin Fang felt proud after hearing this. His wife was so generous.
When Yang Haiyan finished writing the prescription and took it to the next door, she saw Zhang's mother also in the yard, chattering.
“Where did all this wild boar meat come from?”
"Xiao Lu, why don't you call me Brother Zhang when you are hunting game?
"It's from Xiao Lu's family. You can't eat all the wild boar meat. Let's sell some to my aunt."
Sister-in-law Lu was not happy with Zhang Mu, but because her man and Zhang Baifu were under the same captain, she couldn't make too much trouble with Zhang Mu. Since Zhang's mother asked, she just said: "The pork at the meat stall is sixteen cents per catty. I charge my aunt fifteen cents per catty. Auntie?"
Zhang's mother was immediately dissatisfied: "Xiao Lu, we are all so familiar. You don't look at the monk's face and look at the Buddha's face. Isn't 15 coins per catty too much? For your brother Zhang's sake, just ten coins per catty." Let’s take a pound, ten cents per pound, I’ll give it five pounds.”
Yang Haiyan felt that she was really lucky to have escaped by writing Fangzi.
Of course Sister-in-law Lu couldn't give her ten cents per catty, so they bargained for thirteen cents per catty, and Zhang's mother bought five catties, saying it was borrowed from the Qin family.
Zhang's mother bought the meat and was very happy: "Xiao Lu, I'll take the meat first, and I'll give you the money tomorrow."
Sister-in-law Lu said with a sly smile: "As long as Auntie doesn't forget, it's fine."
Zhang’s mother: “How could that happen?”
After Zhang's mother left, Sister-in-law Lu breathed a sigh of relief. But thinking that I will definitely have no money tomorrow makes me feel upset. She and Zhang's mother have been neighbors for more than a year. Can you not understand? Although it is across from Qin Fang's house, the house was empty before Qin Fang got married, so it is not an exaggeration to say that she and the Zhang family are neighbors.
Yang Haiyan then handed the recipe to Sister-in-law Lu: "I think I'll have to take the initiative to ask her for the money tomorrow."
Sister-in-law Lu: "I'll definitely go." This is sixty-five cents, and it's hard to make money these days.
The meat had been divided, half a pig for each household. Qin Fang carried the meat back to his yard. Next, Qin Fang, his wife, and Aunt Fan got busy. But Qin Fang was the one who was busy. He was very strong, so he left the job of chopping ribs and cutting meat strips to him.
After he cut it, Yang Haiyan said: "We can't finish all this much. You can take two ribs and four skewers of meat and send them to Sister Dahua's family." It's almost two kilograms of bones and two kilograms of meat. When she recovered from her illness that day, Yang Dahua came to see her. Although she was visiting the original owner, it was already her at that time, and this favor was always there. What's more, Qin Fang has a good relationship with Han Zhen, and they are under the command of a captain.
Besides, she has no friends here, so she is close to Lu's sister-in-law Yang Dahua. The relationship of friends needs to be maintained. Even in modern times, there are many such contacts.
Qin Fang: "Okay."
It's not too late now, but naturally it's not too early either. When Qin Fang went there, Han Zhen and Yang Dahua had already gone to bed, and the couple were doing some things to have a baby, but Qin Fang who was calling outside naturally didn't know.
"Han Zhen...Han Zhen..."
Han Zhen put on his trousers and came out with a complaint on his face, and opened the door to the courtyard: "Brother, why do you have to come here now?" He was about to go straight to Huanglong.
Qin Fang, who had never seen anyone before, naturally didn't know what he was complaining about. Besides, it was still early, so he didn't think about going to bed. Qin Fang directly gave him the basket: "Brother Lu and I hunted a pig today. My wife asked me to bring it." It means that if my wife hadn't asked me to bring it, I wouldn't have come.
Han Zhen looked at the meat in the basket and said, "Good guy, why didn't you call me when you went today? Thanks."
Qin Fang: "When I was home, I saw a wild boar coming down the mountain, so I went hunting along the way. I didn't go there on purpose."
Han Zhen: "It's almost winter, we really need to hunt some game, otherwise we won't have minced meat for two months. Let's go to the mountains together when we have a rest."
Qin Fang: "Okay."
Han Zhen: "Then I'll close the door." As he said that, he closed the door to the yard.
Bang... Qin Fang blocked the door with one hand and didn't let him close it. He said expressionlessly: "The basket is mine."
Han Zhen: "..." Take out the ribs and meat and throw the basket to him.
Although it's cold, the meat won't go bad if it's left overnight, but there will always be a little smell. So Yang Haiyan plans to dispose of the meat overnight.
This half of the wild boar has about 60 kilograms of ribs and more than 140 kilograms of meat. Yang Haiyan plans to make bacon with the meat and pickled bones with the ribs. But no matter which one to make, the family needs a lot of salt, so Yang Haiyan gave Aunt Fan money and asked her to buy the ingredients. Generally, if the shop is not connected to the yard, people will sleep in the shop when it is closed at night to prevent thieves. So even if many shops are closed at this time, there is no need to worry about not being able to buy materials.
To make pickled bones, first chop the ribs and marinate for a day and a night.
Secondly, rinse with warm water and add fermented rice wine the next day. For 60 pounds of ribs, 35 pounds of fermented rice wine is needed. After adding fermented rice wine and marinating for two days, it can be eaten.
However, there is no place to buy this 35 pounds of fermented rice wine, so Yang Haiyan plans to buy it on the platform when she is waiting for someone.
The Lu family and the Qin family were busy all night, but the Lu family did not pickle bones, so they were busy faster. The Qin family was busy later, and it was already early morning when everything was done.
It was too late for Aunt Fan to go out, so she stayed here. Anyway, there was a storage room for guests, and it was also her room when Qin Fang was on night shift.
The next day
Yang Haiyan slept in. She was too busy yesterday and couldn't get up. When she woke up, it was already 10:00. After washing up, she saw the sweet potato millet porridge and boiled eggs in the pot, and she made herself a bowl of milk powder.
After eating, she bought 38 kilograms of fermented rice wine on the platform, 35 kilograms for pickled pork ribs, and the remaining 3 kilograms for fermented rice wine dumplings tomorrow.
When Aunt Fan came back to make lunch, she saw Yang Haiyan standing straight against the wall. Aunt Fan asked curiously: "Madam, what are you doing?"
Yang Haiyan: "I am keeping fit. If I stand for half an hour after a meal, the fat on my stomach will not accumulate, which is good for digestion and good for the stomach."
Aunt Fan: "That's good. Madam, you know a lot."
Yang Haiyan: "Cook the wild boar's trotters at noon, but the hairs must be plucked out. If you can't pluck them out, you can put them on the fire and bake them until they are softer."
Aunt Fan: "Oh, I see." In fact, through these few days of getting along, Aunt Fan knows that this lady eats more than the ladies of the rich families before. Although there are not many dishes, the taste is very particular.
Yang Haiyan: "Make a shredded radish meatball and cabbage soup, and a scrambled egg." Every time they eat, there are not many dishes, but the amount of each portion is large.
Aunt Fan: "Yes."
"Haiyan...Haiyan..."
Yang Dahua is here. She came to thank Qin Fang for collecting so much meat yesterday. Seeing Aunt Fan washing vegetables in the yard, she thought she was a relative of the Qin family and looked at her a few more times.
Yang Dahua didn't know that Yang Haiyan had bought a yard shop and servants for only about ten days. During these ten days, she made handkerchief purses at home and sold them on the street and in the county. She also arranged her own affairs very busy, so she didn't know about this.
The only one who knew about this was Sister Lu. After all, Aunt Fan came to buy vegetables, cook, wash clothes, etc. for Yang Haiyan every day, and Sister Lu could see it.
Regarding Yang Haiyan's opening a shop to sell snacks, Sister Lu felt that Yang Haiyan was capable, after all, they had eaten the snacks made by Yang Haiyan. She was a little envious of Yang Haiyan. If she had this ability and capital, she would definitely open such a snack shop.
Yang Dahua did not come empty-handed. She brought some fruits with her: "I brought these from the county town when I went there this morning."
Not to mention, Yang Haiyan was surprised when she saw these fruits: "There are apples in the county town?"
Yang Dahua did not know what this fruit was called: "Is this an apple? I don't know. I have never eaten it before. Today I went to the county town to sell things and saw an old man selling this fruit. He said that he picked wild fruits from the mountains. They were very sweet, so I bought some."
Yang Haiyan: "It's an apple. I ate half a piece of it with Miss Yang before." There are relatively few fruits in this world, including apples, pears, bananas, lychees, grapes, watermelons, and cherries. The original owner had never seen other types in the Yang Mansion. What the original owner had not seen means that this world basically does not have them.
The Yang Mansion was once glorious, and even the best fruits had appeared in the Yang Mansion. Some were bought, and some were given by the emperor. As the favored daughter of the Yang family, Miss Yang would naturally share some of the fruits in the family. Regardless of whether she had rewarded the original owner or not, at least the original owner followed her every day, and the things she had seen, the original owner had basically seen.
So Yang Haiyan was sure that there were only these fruits in this world.
Yang Haiyan said again: "But this should be a wild apple, that is, wild apples on the mountain, not cultivated. The ones I have seen before are bigger than this, and the apples are very sweet." This is indeed a wild apple in the world. Wild apples are not big, but very sweet.
Yang Dahua: "They are very sweet. I have eaten half of them." Yang Dahua brought six apples. The apples cost five cents per pound. There were five larger ones and six smaller ones per pound. Yang Dahua chose the more moderate ones.
Yang Haiyan: "Thank you, Sister Dahua. Sister Dahua, will this apple be available in the county tomorrow?"
Yang Dahua: "I don't know about this. I will go to the county in a few days. If I see you, can I bring you some?"
Yang Haiyan: "If you go to the county and see this fruit seller, tell him my address, and how many kilograms he has, how many kilograms he has, I can charge you one penny per kilogram higher than his selling price. "
Although Yang Dahua didn't understand what Yang Haiyan meant, she didn't ask, "Okay."
Yang Haiyan poured a bowl of tea for Yang Dahua and asked her to sit in the study. The courtyard layout was limited, and the only place that could be used to entertain guests was the study. However, this study is not the kind of study room of a wealthy family that contains important information, so it is okay to entertain guests. "Sister Dahua, I bought a shop in the downtown area and it will open tomorrow. Starting from tomorrow, I will be there most of the time. If you can't find me when you come to the family room, you can go to the store in the downtown area. Find me in the shop.”
Yang Dahua's eyes widened in surprise. After a while, she came to her senses: "Haiyan, you opened a shop?" It was incredible. If Haiyan didn't say anything, she really didn't know, "Have you opened a shop?" What kind of shop is it? "Actually, it would be great if the shop could make money, but their family has no money to buy a shop. She also wanted to make money, otherwise she wouldn't have followed Haiyan to become a female celebrity, and then walk for an hour every day to sell handkerchiefs and purses in the county town.
At first, Yang Dahua set up a stall near the town's market to sell handkerchiefs and purses. However, the town's population was limited. There were more than 300 households in the town, with a population of about 2,000, excluding military camp family rooms. Although the family members of the military camp are built in the town, they do not count as the town's household registration. Therefore, the population flow in the town is limited, and the handkerchiefs and purses will be saturated. Moreover, not many are sold every day, so Yang Dahua put his thoughts on it. Moved to the county.
In fact, it was not too tiring to walk for an hour every day to the county, and the sales were indeed better than those sold in the town, so Yang Dahua persisted.
Yang Haiyan: "I run a dim sum shop, and I made the dim sum on the day we were drinking."
Yang Dahua admired her very much: "Haiyan, you are good at your craftsmanship, the snacks you make are delicious, and you are good at opening a shop. But I can't do it. I don't have this skill, so I can only do some menial work." At this point, Yang Dahua had an idea, but there was something wrong with it. Sorry, "Haiyan, I want to discuss something with you."
Yang Haiyan looked at her with a somewhat embarrassed look and asked, "Sister Dahua, what do you want to discuss?"
Yang Dahua thought for a while, gritted his teeth and said directly: "Haiyan, you opened the shop to make money, right?"
Yang Haiyan: "Indeed."
Yang Dahua calmed down: "As long as you can make money, it doesn't matter who you sell it to, right?"
Yang Haiyan: "Indeed, Sister Dahua, if you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly."
Yang Dahua: "I want to sell your snacks wholesale, is that okay?"
Yang Haiyan was stunned, but she didn't expect that Yang Dahua had this intention.
Yang Dahua continued: "I have eaten your snacks, and they taste really good. When we were in the Yang Mansion, our maidservants also received snacks from the masters. I will never forget the taste in my life. But After eating the snacks you made, I think the snacks you made are even more delicious. "
In fact, it's not that the dim sum made by Yang Haiyan is delicious, but that the ingredients are good. Pastry chefs in this world will not add things like cow's milk or goat's milk when making desserts. Don't look at the ordinary mothers who have no milk. If they have money, they will buy goat milk for their babies, but in fact, there is no way. To be honest, people in this world look down on goat's milk. It's not that goat's milk is inferior, but that they don't know what to do with goat's milk. Besides, the children of wealthy families all have wet nurses, so who will be the first to give goat milk to others?
Yang Haiyan's dim sum is made with goat's milk, so it tastes mellow and mellow, which is far from comparable to dim sum in this world.
Yang Haiyan understood what she meant, but said: "Sister Dahua, I have no objection to you approving my dim sum for business. But if you approve the dim sum for business in the town, then the people in the town will With these people, your customers are just coming from me. For me, it does not increase the profit of the business. "Even if two thousand people in a town buy them all, they all buy them at her snack shop. , if Yang Dahua sells batches, some people will be pulled over from the two thousand people, so these people will still have no profit at all for Yang Haiyan.
It is true that she is convenient for others, but the premise is not to harm her own interests. If she wholesales the snacks to Yang Dahua, and Yang Dahua continues to sell them in the town, isn't this giving some of her profits to Yang Dahua?
Of course Yang Dahua understood what she meant, and she immediately explained: "Haiyan, don't worry, I won't sell it in the town. I will go to the county every few days to sell the handkerchiefs and purses I made during this period. You can bring some snacks with you, do you think that’s feasible?”
Upon hearing this, Yang Haiyan said: "There is no problem in selling it in the county."
When Yang Dahua heard this, she was very happy: "How much does your snack cost?"
Yang Haiyan: "On the day of the wedding, there were three kinds of snacks in the red wedding bag I packed. The soft ones, which I named cakes, cost two yuan a penny, the small biscuits cost four yuan a penny, and there was a big one. The ones with soybean filling cost two cents a piece. This is my selling price because the profit is very low, so if Dahuajie is interested, I will pay by the piece.
Biscuits cost forty-five cents per catty, and two hundred yuan per catty. A catty of small cakes costs forty-five cents, and a catty costs one hundred yuan. Soybean cakes weigh fifty-five cents per catty, and there are thirty pieces per catty. As for the price you want to sell it in the county, I don't care. Just order one, and the snacks are non-refundable. "Because she has no way of knowing about hygiene issues after leaving her, so she won't accept it. Let's make this clear.
Yang Dahua calculated the price Yang Haiyan said, and then frowned: "Haiyan, the snacks you made taste great. Take the biscuits, they cost four yuan per penny. The price is really cheap."
Yang Haiyan: "The people in the town have limited conditions, and they are basically from the village. They are reluctant to spend money, so I plan to make small profits but quick turnover." What she wants to do is not only business in the town, but also in the village and so on. , poor families all break one penny into two pennies to spend, and they are very economical. They will definitely be reluctant to buy snacks, so she makes small profits but quick turnover. Besides, she doesn't care about how much money she makes. It doesn't matter if she makes less. She just needs to increase her income to live a better life.
Yang Dahua: "Okay, if you open tomorrow, I'll go and have a look at your shop, okay?"
Yang Haiyan: "Of course."
After talking to Yang Haiyan, Yang Dahua left. Just walking out of the courtyard door, he couldn't help but look back at Yang Haiyan. The girl bathing in the sun was a little different from the girl who came out of the same mansion as her. When she was in the Yang Mansion, she was the eldest maid next to the young lady, and she was the rough maid; when they were asked to get married by the court, they were on an equal footing. After the wedding, she came to see Yang Haiyan, and she was happy in her heart, because they were both The centurion is married; but now, the once equal position seems to be changing again. Haiyan bought a yard, a shop, and opened her own shop, and she...
Yang Dahua clenched her fist, and she also worked hard to make money, and then opened a shop like Haiyan.
At dinner time, Qin Fang came back.
The food of the Qin family has not changed much because Yang Haiyan earned five hundred taels of gold. In Yang Haiyan's view, the quality of food lies in the balanced distribution of nutrients rather than the large number of dishes, so one meat dish, one vegetable, and one protein are three. One soup is enough for the dish.
While eating, Qin Fang talked about the military camp: "Daughter-in-law, I started serving in the military in March of the year I was sixteen, that is, March of the fifteenth year of Hongyuan, and I will be full in March next year. It has been five years, and my military service is five years. Many people may stay if they are promoted within five years, but those who are not promoted will go home. After all, they have been away from home for five years, and everyone misses their hometown. "
Yang Haiyan suddenly remembered some plots. Yes, in the original novel, he was deprived of his future by the original owner and returned to his hometown, but there was also a reason. His five-year military service was up, even if he could stay voluntarily. , but because of the original owner, he did not stay.
So what now? "What do you think, sir? Do you want to stay in March next year? Do you plan to stay in your hometown?"
Qin Fang: "I plan to stay, but I haven't been home for five years. When my military service is over next year, I will have a vacation. I want to go home and see my family. Wife, Yanyan, stay , I have hope of being promoted to captain. If I go home after five years, I..." I will never be worthy of you in my whole life.
Yang Haiyan didn't know what he was thinking, but: "I will support you, husband." Although Yang Haiyan likes a comfortable life, she also likes men who are motivated and willing to work hard. When men work hard for their careers, they are very useful. charm.
Qin Fang is not a macho man, and he hides everything from his wife, but in some places, he also has macho ideas, such as supporting his family. How can a man let his wife support the family? Now that Yanyan has money, everything he eats, wears, and uses belongs to her. He does not feel inferior and will not refuse, but these will become his motivation. He will work harder and make himself proud of her. This is what he can repay her.
Hearing what Yang Haiyan said, Qin relaxed and said, "Thank you, wife."
Yang Haiyan said coquettishly: "I don't appreciate your gratitude. It's good for you to remember me."
Qin Fang held her hand: "Yes."
Looking at Qin Fang, who was confident and hardworking, thoughts flashed through Yang Haiyan's mind. In the novel, Han Zhen was promoted to captain of a thousand soldiers, while Qin Fang's five-year military service was up and he took the original owner back to his hometown. So this time, who will be given the position of captain? Is it the male protagonist Han Zhen? Is it Qin Fang?
Yang Haiyan will not steal the opportunity of the heroine, but she will also fight for opportunities for her husband through her own efforts.
the next day
Early in the morning, Yang Haiyan and Qin Fang went out together. Qin Fang went to the military camp, and Yang Haiyan went to the snack shop.
The delicious snack shop opens early. This is different from modern stores, which basically open around 8:30 or 9:00. However, in this era, the morning is the time when there are the most people, especially in the villages below the town. Came to town early. Therefore, the dim sum shop opens early.
Before the shop opened, Yang Haiyan inspected the inside again. It was very clean. Tea was prepared on the four dining tables. Small cakes, cookies, red bean cakes, mung bean cakes, and soybean cakes were all neatly placed on the counter. Small cakes and There are enough portions of each biscuit. There was a stove on the counter to warm the goat's milk, and there was a large bowl of dumplings next to it.
After checking that there was no problem, Yang Haiyan said: "Open for business."
Aunt Hong and Aunt Fan: "Hey." They are wearing dark blue skirts. The skirt is a short top, and the skirt is usually a floor-length skirt. This is a very common dress for women. But the difference is that they wear white aprons on top of their skirts, which makes them look a little different and more standardized and clean.
The delicious snack shop is open. Today is the first day, so a lot of snacks are prepared. In order to build a reputation, there is no limit. The limit will start tomorrow.
Yang Haiyan took Aunt Fan and Aunt Hong to solicit customers at the door: "Dear friends, good morning, everyone. Today is the first day of opening of the delicious dim sum shop. As long as you buy a dim sum in the shop, there will be small gifts for you." She said. Wearing a white undershirt, a pink pleated skirt, and a simple lady's hair ornament on her head, with a light pink silk flower, she looks clean and pure.
Many people had eaten the dim sum promoted by Aunt Hong the day before yesterday, so early this morning, there were people waiting, and because the price was cheap, there were quite a few people waiting.
"Shopkeeper, what kind of small gift are you sending me?"
"That's right. If you buy one, you get a gift. If you buy two, do you get two gifts?"
"..."
Aunt Hong: "Yes, if you buy one, you will get a gift. If you buy two, you will get two gifts. And this gift is only available on the first day."
"Shopkeeper, I have five cents worth of biscuits and five cents worth of cake. Do you have a gift worth ten cents?"
"Shopkeeper, I..."
Yang Haiyan: "Everyone, please be quiet. There is a basket over here. You can carry the basket to the counter to buy any snacks. After you have made your purchase, go to the cashier to pay. After you pay, the cashier will give you a gift. Of course, everyone will also You can take a rest inside, eat snacks and drink milk tea. ”
"What is milk tea?"
"Is the milk tea delicious?"
"What kind of milk tea? I've never heard of it."
Yang Haiyan: "Everyone comes one by one. Don't worry. Those who have never had milk tea can try it for free first. Now everyone starts queuing up."
Although there is a lot of traffic, there are only these people in the town, and no matter how many there are, it will not disrupt the order.
There was an old woman in line early in the morning. Her grandson had been clamoring for it after eating cake the day before yesterday. The price was really cheap, so she came early this morning. She took a basket and chose four small cakes. , twelve small biscuits, and then I saw red bean cakes, mung bean cakes, and soybean cakes next to them. However, these three types were not available when Aunt Hong promoted them the day before yesterday, so I asked curiously: "What kind of snacks are these?"
Aunt Hong: "These are red bean cakes, mung bean cakes, and soybean cakes. They contain red bean filling, mung bean filling, and soybean filling respectively. They cost two cents each."
When the old woman heard that she wanted two cents, she stopped looking. Although they were bigger than cakes and biscuits, she ate the cakes and biscuits. She gave one piece to her grandson every morning and one piece to her grandson in the afternoon. One penny would last for two days. . The pie looks fried and golden, but two cents is too expensive.
The old woman looked past the red bean cake, mung bean cake, and soybean cake, and saw the white, thick, and fragrant Xiaoyuanzi milk tea: "What is this?"
Aunt Hong: "This is Xiaoyuanzi milk tea, you can try it." She scooped out half the bowl with a spoon, and there were two Yuanzi in it.
The old woman took it and drank it: "It tastes really good." The sweet milky aroma made people's mouth water. "How much does this cost?"
Aunt Hong: "It costs three cents for a bowl. You can drink it in our shop. There is a table over there, so you can drink it slowly. If you want to take it away, you have to prepare your own bowl. And this milk tea is very nourishing for the body, no matter if it is a child." They are adults and have high nutrition.”
Although Yang Haiyan was at the cashier, the cashier and the snack counter were connected. She listened to Aunt Hong and Aunt Fan introducing the customers, which she had made up for for them.
If we were in modern times, no one would care about milk tea in terms of body nourishment and nutritional value. Even drinks like milk tea would be regarded as junk food. But in ancient times, it was different.
First of all, some modern people have diabetes, but among hundreds of thousands of ancient people, not one person could be singled out. If ancient people could get diabetes, it would be a different kind of disease of wealth. Therefore, milk tea in ancient times was regarded as a very nutritious drink, and Yang Haiyan's goat milk contained less sugar, and the dumplings were made of flour. Unlike modern milk tea, which contains flavors, saccharin, etc., drinking too much is harmful to people. of poor health.
Between goat's milk and cow's milk, if Yang Haiyan was asked to choose, she would naturally prefer cow's milk, but in ancient times, goat's milk was easier to obtain than cow's milk.
1. Cows are much more valuable than sheep. A sheep only needs one tael of silver, while a cow requires no less than eight taels of silver.
2. Cows were very precious animals in ancient times. For ordinary people, owning a cow was a very honorable thing and a very valuable family property. Cows existed as labor force and could not be killed casually. Sheep, on the other hand, are used for food just like ordinary poultry.
The two sheep Yang Haiyan bought have just given birth. The milk production cycle of sheep is seven to nine months, which is about three to four kilograms per day. Two sheep are six to eight kilograms. Of course, sometimes it is unstable.
However, after seven to nine months, the goat needs to be bred and pregnant, and after giving birth to a lamb, it will produce milk again. But this will be troublesome, so Yang Haiyan thought that when the goat stopped producing milk, she could make roasted whole goat for eating, and then buy two goats that can produce milk, killing two birds with one stone.
The old woman: "How can I take this away? How much is a bowl?"
Aunt Hong took out a small bowl, which was the size of a small bowl for eating: "This big bowl is a bowl." A bowl is about 200 grams. After disinfecting and sterilizing the goat milk every day, one bowl is left for Uncle Hong's son. After making cakes and biscuits, there is less than five pounds left, which is less than five kilograms, and can make 20 bowls of milk tea.
The old woman thought for a moment and said, "I didn't bring a bowl. Can you lend me your bowl to buy a bowl? I'll send the bowl to you later. My home is also in town."
Yang Haiyan said, "Aunt, this milk tea can't be kept for a long time. It must be drunk within half an hour, otherwise the nutrition in the milk tea will be gone. Therefore, we don't recommend taking milk tea away. We only recommend customers to drink it in the shop. There are tables and chairs here, and you can rest here." Too deep explanations, such as goat milk and cow milk, will breed bacteria if not drunk within the specified time, etc., are not understood by people of this era, so it is the most easy to understand to say that it has no nutrition.
The old woman was upset when she heard this. What if her grandson didn't drink it all within half an hour and it had no nutrition, wouldn't it be a waste? This is three cents: "Then I don't want it, I want small cakes and small cookies."
Yang Haiyan: "Then you come to my side to pay."
The old woman walked to the cashier: "Boss, you said you buy one and give one gift, I bought these, what gift do you give?"
Yang Haiyan: "You bought four small cakes, two cents, twelve small cookies, three cents, a total of five cents, right?"
The old woman: "Yes, yes, I calculated it, it's five cents."
Yang Haiyan: "For every penny you spend, we give one cookie, You spent five cents and got five small cookies. Now it's four small cakes and seventeen small cookies. Please count them, right?"
The old woman: "Oh, that's great, one cent for one small cookie? Then my five cents is equivalent to getting one cent worth of cookies?"
Yang Haiyan: "Yes, this price is only available today. There will be no more after today."
The old woman immediately said: "No, no, I have to buy more. My grandson likes to eat it. Since it's cheap today, I have to buy more to save."
