25, Chapter 25 (1/2)

Others heard that buying one penny would give away a small cookie, and they immediately increased their orders. Those who originally planned to buy two or three pennies immediately doubled and tripled their orders. After all, small cakes and biscuits are cheaper and last longer, and ordinary people like to get a little bargain.

When Yang Dahua arrived, she found that the people in the shop were not busy. There were about ten people lining up: "Haiyan."

Yang Haiyan: "Sister Dahua is here, Aunt Hong, give Sister Dahua a bowl of milk tea, and a green bean cake and a red bean cake."

Aunt Hong: "Yes, I will."

Yang Dahua hurriedly said: "No, no, I've had breakfast."

Yang Haiyan pulled her to sit inside: "These green bean cakes and red bean cakes are newly made, the same as the yellow bean cakes, but the fillings are different, you try them. And this milk tea can only be kept for half an hour, if you keep it too much, it will lose its nutrition. Today, a total of 20 bowls have been prepared. No one is buying it now. Anyway, it's just sitting there, so just drink it, don't be polite to me."

Hearing her say this, Yang Dahua was not polite anymore.

It must be said that the white and thick milk tea exudes fragrance. When customers who come to buy dim sum see it, they will ask curiously. However, when they hear that a bowl costs three cents and it will be nutritious if they don’t drink it for half an hour, they start to think. Yang Haiyan found that milk tea is not suitable at this time. The milk tea made now is directly brewed with milk powder, which means it can be stored for a long time, but her milk tea is freshly brewed with goat milk and can only be stored for an hour. Based on today’s situation, she decided to cross out milk tea from tomorrow’s dim sum.

During the Chen hour (7:00-9:00), there are many customers coming in one after another. Most of them are the effect of Aunt Hong’s promotion this day, and the passers-by come in to buy dim sum because they hear that dim sum is cheap. At this time of Chen hour, because everyone comes out to buy vegetables, the flow of people is relatively large. After Chen hour, people gradually become less.

When there were no customers, Yang Haiyan said, "Aunt Fan, pour out the milk tea. We won't make milk tea tomorrow. When you make snacks tomorrow, you can drink the extra goat milk to replenish your body."

Aunt Fan: "All of this is poured out?" What a pity.

Yang Haiyan: "It's poured out. Hygiene is the first condition for doing business. Expired and spoiled products cannot be brought in. Goat milk has no nutrition after half an hour, and it will spoil after an hour, so it cannot be drunk. Although it is not fatal, it will cause diarrhea. We run a shop to do business, especially food, we must not go against our conscience."

Aunt Fan was not interested when she heard that it would go bad and she would have diarrhea after drinking it, so she hurriedly took it to the backyard and poured it out.

Seeing this, Yang Dahua couldn't help but say, "Haiyan, you are really particular." She felt sad to see so much goat milk poured out. But as Haiyan said, you must not go against your conscience when doing business.

Yang Haiyan smiled: "Sister Dahua, what do you think of this shop?"

Yang Dahua: "It's good, it's a shop." It's a pity that she doesn't have any skills. If she had skills and conditions, she would also like to buy a shop. "By the way, Haiyan, how much silver did you buy this shop for?"

Yang Haiyan: "This shop comes with a yard. It cost 34 taels of silver. The yard is in the backyard. Do you want to go there?"

Yang Dahua: "Okay."

Yang Haiyan took Yang Dahua to the backyard. The yard was tidy. Uncle Hong was taking care of the children, but he was standing by the main gate of the yard, so he wouldn't bump into the women.

Yang Dahua looked at it, feeling very touched. When she was in Yang's house, she thought Haiyan was different. She thought everyone married a centurion and they were the same, but now it seems that they are still different. "Haiyan, did Captain Qin give you the money to buy the yard?"

Yang Haiyan thought for a moment: "He gave some, and some I exchanged for the handkerchief I embroidered."

Yang Dahua: "You are really willing to spend thirty-four taels of silver to buy this yard. I really don't want to spend it." It's true that she doesn't want to spend it, and it's also true that she doesn't have money. Han Zhen also gave her some silver, plus she earned from selling handkerchiefs in the county town, she didn't even have four taels of silver.

Thinking of this, Yang Dahua said again: "Haiyan, I will sell your snacks in the county town tomorrow. Is it okay with you?"

Yang Haiyan: "Of course, what kind of snacks do you want to order?" Yang Haiyan thought to herself that she had been here for more than a month and had never been to the county town. Tomorrow she also wanted to go to the county town to see it.

Yang Dahua: "I want small cakes and small biscuits, two kilograms each." Anyway, this is durable, even if it can't be sold tomorrow, there is still the day after tomorrow.

Yang Haiyan: "A total of 180 coins. Tomorrow morning, Dahua sister, you come to the shop to pick up the goods. I don't have any inventory here. I made them early in the morning."

Yang Dahua: "Well, I'll give you the money first."

Yang Haiyan: "Okay." You can earn 30 coins per catty of small biscuits, 60 coins per two catties, 25 coins per catty of small cakes, 50 coins per two catties, and 110 coins in total, which is not bad.

In the shop, Zhang's mother came. It was no secret that Yang Haiyan opened a snack shop, and there was nothing to hide. So Zhang's mother overheard the conversation between Yang Haiyan and Sister Lu, and came secretly today.

"Oh, business is so good." Zhang's mother came with her little grandson, her eldest granddaughter and her eldest grandson.

Aunt Hong came up to greet: "Hello, customer, what do you need to buy?"

Zhang's mother glanced at Aunt Hong. She didn't know Aunt Hong, and Aunt Hong didn't know her either. However, Zhang's mother was very good at putting on airs: "Where is your boss's wife? I know her."

Aunt Hong: "..." The boss's wife is in the backyard.

At this time, Aunt Fan greeted the guests and said, "Mr. Zhang, you are here." Aunt Fan buys groceries every day and delivers them to the military camp family home, and she also has three meals a day at the military camp family home. She did it, so she knew Mrs. Zhang, met her, and said hello. Coupled with the fact that the talented wild boar is here, she is naturally familiar with it.

Mrs. Zhang felt so comfortable after being shouted at by Aunt Fan. In the eyes of these common people, isn't she, the centurion's mother, just the old lady? She nodded: "I brought my children to visit your business, where is Qin Fang's family? Why didn't I see her?"

Aunt Fan: "‌‌ is busy in the backyard. If you have anything to ask ‌‌, I'll call you."

Mother Zhang: "‌You..."

"Grandma, I want to eat this, I want to eat this..." Zhang Dabao interrupted Mother Zhang and pointed at the small cake. He had eaten this little cake before, so he was very impressed.

Mother Zhang: "Okay, okay, I'll give you something to eat. Who is this? Give me some small cakes. My grandson wants to eat them."

Aunt Fan: "Mr. Zhang, our little cake costs one penny and two pieces. How many pieces do you want?"

Zhang Muhao said angrily: "Give me ten yuan."

Zhang Dabao: "Ten yuan, ten yuan, I will eat all of it."

Mother Zhang coaxed her eldest grandson: "Yes, yes, yes, I'll give it to you, I'll give it to you."

Aunt Fan: "Ten small cakes, please wait a moment... Ten small cakes cost five cents in total. We are doing an event today and will give away five small biscuits. Please take it."

Zhang Dabao: "Give it to me."

Zhang's mother directly took the greased paper and quickly took out a piece and gave it to Zhang Dabao: "Eat it, eat it slowly, don't choke."

Zhang Dabao: "It's soft so you won't choke."

The little girl next to her was eating Zhang Dabao. She swallowed the water but said nothing.

Zhang Dabao ate one piece at a time, eating it quickly, and immediately ate the second piece.

Mother Zhang: "Eat slowly, eat slowly, you child..." As she spoke, she added, "Let's leave first. I'm afraid the child will choke if he eats too much, so I'll take him back to drink water."

Aunt Fan said hurriedly: "Mr. Zhang, I haven't given you the money for the cake yet."

Zhang's mother said, "I'll give Qin Fang a home later." After saying that, she hugged her grandson and hurried away.

Aunt Fan chased after her: "Old Zhang ‌‌...Old Zhang ‌‌..." She was dumbfounded, this old ‌‌ was also ‌...She came from a wealthy family after all, let's talk about her experience. When dealing with such a thing, she is naturally more thoughtful than others. She knows Zhang Mu's plan, and she clearly doesn't want to give money. Thinking of this, Aunt Fan hurried into the backyard: "‌‌."

Yang Haiyan and Yang Dahua had also reached an agreement. When they heard Aunt Fan coming, they asked, "What's wrong?"

Aunt Fan: "The thing is like this..." She told Zhang Mu's story again.

Yang Haiyan was not angry after hearing this, but found it funny: "It's okay. We'll talk about it in a few days. It's up to her to be shameless."

Yang Dahua joked: "I must be shameless when I look at her."

Not long after, Sister-in-law Lu came. The snack shop opened today. Sister-in-law Lu also came to join in the fun. By the way, she made Yang Haiyan happy. She bought ten cents worth of snacks. Normally, Sister-in-law Lu would not be willing to buy so much, but she just sold more than 100 kilograms of wild boar meat a few days ago and earned twenty taels of silver, so she was willing to do so.

noon

When it was lunch time, Qin Fang went to the back door to get the lunch box. When Qin Fang walked towards the back door, several centurions watched him with envious eyes.

"Hey..." a centurion sighed, "Xiao Qin's life is really good. He used to have a wife to deliver food, but now he has a servant to deliver food."

"No, I can't even support myself, let alone buy someone else."

"Xiao Qin's daughter-in-law is also very powerful. What does Xiao Qin have? I can't stand a man who is a freeloader." Some people are envious, and naturally others are jealous.

"You can pull it off. If there is soft food, I will eat it too."

"That's right, Xiao Qin's wife is beautiful and kind to Xiao Qin, but she can't be found even with a lantern."

"That's right."

Qin Fang naturally didn't like the fact that some people were talking behind his back, and even if they did, he wouldn't take it seriously. It's useless to be jealous of others. He knows that his wife is good, so he has to work hard to climb up in order to repay her.

Uncle Hong was already waiting at the back door. When Qin Fang came out, he took the lunch box from the donkey cart and said, "Master."

Qin Fang, a twenty-year-old young man, was not used to this title at first, but now he is used to it: "Well. How is the shop today?" He said that his wife's shop will open today, and he is afraid of business. If it is not good, it will make the wife worried. So all morning, he was also worried about her. Thinking about how he would comfort her after returning home.

Uncle Hong: "Business was good when I came here. The cookies and cakes were particularly good. No one bought the Xiaoyuanzi milk tea. I gave some to everyone and threw away the rest. There are also pictures Old ‌‌ things..."

Qin Fang nodded and said nothing more. After he finished eating, he gave the lunch box to Uncle Hong and went in.

Qin Fang ate faster because he didn't have to queue up for food and vegetables. He had finished eating. Some people hadn't had their turn yet, so there was a long queue in front of the kitchen. There is no way. There are 50,000 people in a military camp. Even if there are several kitchens, the team will be long.

Some people were queuing up, and some people had already received their meals and were sitting on the floor eating them. Qin Fang followed them. Once upon a time, he was one of them.

When Qin Fang came back, someone started to make a noise again: "Qin Fang, what did you eat today?"

"Qin Fang, come and gesture after you finish eating?"

"Qin Fang, what does your wife do? Did she buy servants for you to use?"

Those who can call Qin Fang's name are either centurions like Qin Fang, or centurions above him.

Qin Fang: "Okay, let's gesture after an hour." His wife said that it is not good for the body to do heavy exercise within an hour after eating. If it were before, they would gesture after eating when they were free, but he listened to his wife now.

"Another hour later? What are you going to do?"

Qin Fang: "Reading books." He found a place to sit down. He had not yet recognized all the characters in the three books his wife bought: Three Character Classic, Hundred Family Surnames, and Thousand Character Classic. His wife said that when he recognized all the characters here, she would buy him a book on military strategy. If he came to serve in the army at the age of 16, it was because of the court's regulations and he had no choice. But over the years, he really liked to join the army and liked to kill enemies on the battlefield. On the battlefield, he seemed to have found the meaning of his existence.

Of course, he has now found another meaning for himself. He wants to become stronger, get promoted, make money, and support his wife.

"... We are rough people, why pretend to be literati? Really." Some people disagreed.

"That's right, you can do it, what's wrong with reading a few more books?"

"That's right."

Of course, there are also people who help Qin Fang speak: "Why don't you allow others to read books?"

"That's right, if you don't want to read books, don't stop others."

Qin Fang is not a talkative person. He ignores those who say sour words, and remembers those who help him speak.

After finishing his meal, Han Zhen sat down next to Qin Fang: "What book are you reading?"

Qin Fang handed Han Zhen the Thousand Characters in his book.

Han Zhen was a little surprised, and then joked: "Why are you reading? Do you want to take the exam for the top martial arts champion?" The top martial arts champion is not only about martial arts, but also involves knowledge such as military tactics, so reading and literacy are necessary.

Qin Fang shook his head: "I didn't have the opportunity before, but now I have the opportunity. It's good to read more books. My wife knows how to read, and she taught me." When he said this, he didn't feel ashamed, but proud.

Han Zhen sighed: "You are just lucky. Do you think everyone can marry a literate wife like you?" Although they all knew that Qin Fang married a good wife, after really understanding her, they were really envious. Qin Fang's daughter-in-law is not only virtuous, but also makes delicious food. She can also earn money by herself, and now she has bought servants. More importantly, she is beautiful.

People are visually oriented, and it is natural for men to like beautiful women. Just like Han Zhen, he thinks Yang Dahua is very good. Although Yang Dahua looks average, she is also very virtuous. She often goes to the county to sell handkerchiefs and purses to make money. He is very satisfied to marry such a daughter-in-law. However, if Yang Dahua can be more beautiful, he will naturally like her more.

Qin Fang smiled.

Han Zhen looked at his hard profile and fell into deep thought. Although they are brothers who grew up together, his life is not as good as Qin Fang. Qin Fang is the eldest son and grandson of the Qin family. He grew up in the love of his grandparents, father and mother. And what about him? His biological mother died early, and his father married a stepmother. This time, he served in the army for his father.

Han Zhen knew very well that if he didn't leave the village, his life would probably be like this, so when his father and stepmother asked him to serve in the army, he didn't object. Because only when he left the village, they couldn't control him.

In fact, his choice was right.

Since he served in the army, there has been no letter from home, and he naturally wouldn't write a letter. Even after becoming a centurion, he kept his money by himself, unlike Qin Fang who would take it home. He also told Qin Fang not to mention his affairs in the letter.

He had been unhappy since he was a child, so naturally he wouldn't use the money he earned with his life to support his stepmother and others.

In the past, he envied Qin Fang very much. Later, they got married. When Yang Haiyan committed suicide by taking poison on the wedding night, he still sympathized with Qin Fang blindly, but in a blink of an eye, Qin Fang became the person he and everyone envied.

Hey...

Qin Fang was studying seriously. He tried to recognize all the characters in the Thousand Character Classic in October, and started studying military books in November.

After studying for almost an hour, Qin Fang put the book away and kicked Han Zhen who was sleeping next to him: "Get up and stretch your muscles."

Han Zhen opened his eyes: "Okay."

Of course, their duty was not patrolling. There were soldiers below for patrolling. Their duty was to ensure that they were in the barracks. As for what to do, they could arrange it themselves. So they were training for many things.

Qin Fang: "I won't fight with you today, but with Zhang Baifu. We will take turns fighting with him."

Han Zhen blinked, then put his hand on Qin Fang's shoulder and asked secretly: "What did he do to you?" Han Zhen was not as tall as Qin Fang. He put his hand on Qin Fang's shoulder, which made Qin Fang very uncomfortable, and he directly shook his hand away. "No."

Han Zhencai didn't believe it. Don't let Qin Fang go up to the old man, he is very bad inside. Do old people hide their personal money? Everyone in the village knew that Qin Fang wrote a letter to his family at the end of last year and brought money. Because the Qin family sent their two children to learn Chinese characters, according to the Qin family, Qin Fang earned money and brought them back. So his father also sent him a message and asked him if he had any monthly records.

Han Zhen thought it was funny when he received the letter. He was not a fool. Would he send it to his family every month? So I didn’t even reply to the letter. However, he asked Qin Fang and learned that Qin Fang brought home three taels of silver, so he also knew that Qin Fang had hidden his private money. Are men who know how to hide private money old? impossible. Besides, they had grown up together, so he knew Qin Fang well.

The two found Zhang Baifu who was chatting aside. Zhang Baifu was chatting enthusiastically when he felt a shadow on his head. He looked up and saw Qin Fang. Han Zhen said: "What are you two doing?"

Qin Fang: "Brother Zhang, come and discuss."

Zhang Baifu stood up and said, "Okay." He knew that he was not Qin Fang's opponent, but their competition was not to fight desperately, but to train themselves, so why not?

So, after the discussion was over, Zhang Baifu became paralyzed.

Originally, after Qin Fang had a discussion, he went off to rest. As a result, Han Zhen came, and Han Zhen provoked him by saying that if he competed with Qin Fang instead of competing with him, he would not be able to afford him. What can Zhang Baifu do? I endured it and went up.

Although they only sparred twice, Qin Fang was beaten very hard by Qin Fang in the first spar. If he didn't have a good relationship and was under a commander-in-chief, he would have doubted whether he had offended Qin Fang.

Zhang Baifu opened his mouth and wanted to drink water, but his mouth hurt when he opened his mouth. The bruises at the corners of his mouth showed his embarrassment. Qin Fang, this kid, was so fierce today that he was eaten.

Speaking of which, Qin Fang and Han Zhen are the most outstanding among all the people who have endured thousands of years. However, the relationship between the two is very good. I still remember that when the two first came to the military camp, some veterans came to them for a discussion, but they beat them until they couldn't get up. In the military camp, it is common for veterans to demonstrate to recruits, and this is also tacitly approved by the superiors, which can boost morale. But it has never been so miserable before, so Qin Fang and Han Zhen became famous.

From then on, there were not many veterans who made trouble for them, but gradually, they were all beaten up and frightened.

Qin Fang beat Zhang Baifu and felt better. His daughter-in-law worked hard to open a shop and do business, but she was taken advantage of by Zhang Mu. As a grown man, he couldn't argue with Zhang Mu, so couldn't he argue with Zhang Baifu? The mother's debt is repaid by her son, which has existed since ancient times.

Qin Fang sat aside, took out the thousand-character essay and continued to read.

Han Zhen was bored and went to find someone to continue the discussion.

There were two men standing in the corner, one of them was a captain of thousands of men, and the other one was very noble and his magnificence was far beyond that of ordinary children from aristocratic families. Moreover, the demeanor of the children of ordinary aristocratic families is different. There is a bit of evil spirit on his body, which makes people understand at a glance that he has broken through the pile of dead people.

"Is this person Qin Fang?"

Captain Ao Qian said: "Yes, the prince, he is Qin Fang. He is brave and resourceful, and he is also very motivated. He was illiterate when he first came here, and he pestered us to teach him how to read. Now he is married to a daughter-in-law, the daughter-in-law of the family. He knew how to read, so he asked his wife to teach him.”

It turns out that this noble man is Prince Yong‌hou. Prince Yong‌hou was born in Yongzhou. He grew up in a military camp and followed Yong‌hou into the battlefield at the age of twelve. Yongzhou's 50,000 soldiers are loyal to Yong‌hou, and there is a reason why they are privately called the Yongjia Army. As the next leader of the Yongjia Army, Yong‌hou Shizi has grown up together with the ‌ soldiers. The feelings are self-evident. Besides, these 50,000 soldiers are still supported by the private property of the Yongpinghou Mansion. To the soldiers, a good emperor is not as important as a good general.

Although Qin Fang was famous for his ability to defeat Han Zhen when he first entered the military camp, who was Yong Shizi Hou? Naturally, he would not notice this new recruit. He would notice Qin Fang this time because of what Mrs. Shizi said about the soap recipe. The soap recipe has been given to Mrs. Shizi for more than half a month, and the soap has been made. And part of it has been put into the market in other places, and the profit is so good that Yong Shizi Hou was shocked when he heard it.

Speaking of which, no matter how much private property the Yongfuhou Mansion has, it cannot afford to support these 50,000 soldiers. Like the bright and beautiful Yongfuhou Mansion, the inside is almost an empty box. Several hundred years of accumulation were spent on these 50,000 soldiers. Even the private property produced by Mrs. Yong Hou and Mrs. Crown Prince's dowry shop was replenished. But they can't talk about these hardships. Once they talk about it, the morale of the soldiers will be disturbed.

Therefore, Yang Haiyan's soap recipe can generate huge profits, which is really timely for the Yongfu Hou Mansion.

Therefore, as soon as the prince's wife mentioned it, the prince remembered it. I specially came to Qin Fang today, and happened to see Qin Fang's performance during the competition. His powerful arms and tall and resolute body. His fighting ability really satisfied the prince. "You're going to make a move at the end of the year. Do you have someone in mind?"

Captain Ao Qianfu said: "Yes, I already like Qin Fang, and I want to mention it to the prince."

In the original plot of the novel, Captain Ao Qian also liked Qin Fang, but because of the original incident, he could only give up with regret and chose Han Zhen. It is also very important to have a good wife at home so that men can work without worries.

There are 50,000 soldiers in Yongzhou, and five of them are captains of ten thousand men. However, there is no such title in the court. Captain of ten thousand men is just a definition in the military camp. In the court, captain of ten thousand men is appointed by the emperor and is granted the title of fifth-rank guerrilla general. Captain of ten thousand men is appointed by the emperor, and although captain of thousand men is of seventh rank, it is reported by the military camp and drafted by the Ministry of War, and does not need to go through the emperor.

Although the 50,000 generals in Yongzhou are called the Yongjia Army and are loyal to the Yongyi Marquis Mansion, they do not exclude the infiltration of other forces here. After all, captain of thousand men needs the approval of the Ministry of War, and captain of ten thousand men needs the approval of the emperor.

Therefore, people like the prince of Yongyi Marquis would choose their own confidants in the military camp for a long time, and then promote them step by step. Usually, his confidants are selected from the common people who come to serve in the army. Only soldiers from the common people will not be wooed by other forces when they come to serve in the army, because no one knows when this soldier will sacrifice himself. Other forces will not be so attentive. Only when this person has some fame will other forces try to win him over.

Ao Qianfuzhang is one of the confidants of the Yongyihou Prince.

The Prince of Yongyi: "Well, how does his country rank among the ten people in your country?"

Captain Ao: "Only Han Zhen is worthy of him."

The Prince of Yongyi: "Let's select the captain of Qianfu in an open competition, so as not to be talked about."

Captain Ao was anxious: "What if..."

The Prince of Yongyi: "I think he is more aggressive than Han Zhen. If such a person is given a chance, he will seize it well."

Captain Ao: "Yes."

The two met and talked privately, and no one knew about it. After the Prince of Yongyi left, Captain Ao stood for a while and left as well.

…

Yang Haiyan was calculating today’s profits in the study. The dim sum shop closed at 6:30 pm (4:30 p.m.). Aunt Fan and Aunt Hong started working from dawn. Because the mung bean cakes, red bean cakes, and yellow bean cakes were made on the same day, they got up early, so Yang Haiyan closed the shop early. Besides, their working hours today have exceeded ten hours, and the sales of small cakes and small cookies in the shop have exceeded her ideal quota, so Yang Haiyan is very satisfied.

However, in addition to small cakes and small cookies, the sales of mung bean cakes, red bean cakes, and yellow bean cakes are not ideal, and even each type has not sold four catties. Originally, her idea was to have a daily quota of two catties for each dim sum. Now, small cakes and small cookies can be rationed to two catties per day, but mung bean cakes, red bean cakes, and yellow bean cakes are enough for one catty per day. After all, they did not buy twice as much as usual during the first day of the opening, so it is impossible to have a sales volume of two catties on normal days.

Overall, today's profit is still quite good. After deducting the capital, I made more than one or two taels a day. Yang Haiyan put the profit she made today into the box. Just as she put it away, she heard Aunt Fan's voice from outside: "Grandpa is back."

Qin Fang is back?

Yang Haiyan happily walked out of the study to greet him: "You are back. Is it hard? Aunt Fan, pour me a cup of warm water to quench my thirst, and add some fine salt." This man trains every day in the barracks, and walks for an hour when he comes back. The total amount of exercise every day is not small, so drinking salt water can replenish the sodium lost with sweat during exercise, which is good for the body.

Aunt Fan smiled and said: "Here it comes."

Qin Fang really enjoys Yang Haiyan's careful care of him. Although he doesn't know why he should drink salt water, his wife is knowledgeable, and it is always right to listen to her. Qin Fang drank the salt water and gave the bowl to Aunt Fan: "How is the shop today?" It was the first day of the dim sum shop's business, and he was afraid that his wife would be under a lot of pressure.

Yang Haiyan: "Not bad, after deducting the cost, the profit is one or two silvers. But today is a promotion, everyone bought a lot, and today's purchase is enough for everyone to eat for a few days, so the business will not be good in the next few days."

Qin Fang was stunned when he heard it. One or two silvers is his monthly salary. He once again realized his shortcomings. A sharp flash flashed in his deep eyes, and he must work harder. However, soldiers need military merits to climb up. During the period without war, it means that there is no military merit, so there is no use in being anxious. What he can do is to lay a good foundation in the war. For example, train every day to improve his martial arts, learn words every day, and then learn the art of war to make himself understand more combat skills.

At this time, a loud shout came from next door.

"Dashan, Dashan, what happened to your face? Damn it, who hit you?" Zhang's mother's scream was terrifying.

Zhang Baifu: "It was hit during training, it's nothing."

Zhang's mother hurried to boil eggs, intending to use the boiled eggs to remove the bruises on Zhang Baifu's face: "Why is it nothing? You hit your face, the other party is really cruel, is he going to beat you to death? Did you ask the other party to pay for the medical expenses?"

Zhang's mother's shouting was loud, Zhang Baifu was busy trying to stop her, for fear that the neighbors would hear and make a fuss: "Sparring is a military camp rule, everyone can hurt anyone, what right do you have to interfere? What if the military camp finds out and asks me to retire? Besides, the other party's injury is more serious than mine, he probably can't get out of bed for three days." Zhang Baifu boasted, praying in his heart that Qin Fang would not hear it.

However, he said it very softly, and Qin Fang really didn't hear it. But when Qin Fang heard what Zhang's mother said, he curled the corners of his mouth and thought that he could find Zhang Baifu to practice with him again tomorrow.

After dinner, the couple stood in the yard to digest the food for a while. Afterwards, Qin Fang read and learned to read, and Yang Haiyan exercised for a quarter of an hour. When it was time to go to bed at night, Yang Haiyan told Qin Fang about the history of the country.

The next day

Qin Fang went to the military camp, and Yang Haiyan went to the snack shop. Aunt Fan and Aunt Hong had already laid out the snacks for the day in the shop. According to Yang Haiyan's instructions, the small cakes and small biscuits were two catties each, and the other three kinds of biscuits were one catty each. Uncle Hong went to cut grass and cut fresh grass to feed the sheep.

After a while, Yang Dahua came: "Haiyan, I'm here to order snacks."

She only asked for two catties of small cakes and small biscuits each, and she would go to the county town later.

Yang Haiyan: "Sister Dahua is here, snacks are ready, I will go to the county town later, Uncle Hong will drive the donkey cart to take me, you can go with me, I can take you back."

Yang Dahua heard that this was much faster than walking for an hour: "Okay, I'll trouble you."

Yang Haiyan: "There is goat milk in the pot, sister Dahua, drink a bowl, it can nourish the body."

Yang Dahua hurriedly refused: "No, no." A bowl costs three cents, how can she drink it for free.

Yang Haiyan: "When squeezing goat milk, too much is squeezed, if you don't drink it, it will go bad, so don't be polite to me. Besides, goat milk nourishes the body, it is the best for us women. Drinking more goat milk will make your skin whiter."

Yang Dahua was a little tempted when she heard that her skin would become whiter. Because she was a maid, she cleaned and washed clothes every day, so she was often exposed to the sun. Although her skin was not dark, it was not as white and tender as Yang Haiyan's. Every woman likes to be whiter, and Yang Dahua naturally said: "I'll give you silver."

Yang Haiyan: "Drinking goat milk can't make your skin white in one or two days. You have to drink it for a long time, at least three months to see the effect." In fact, you have to drink it all year round. Yang Haiyan doesn't know whether it can be white in three months, but it is certain that the skin will become smooth. When Yang Dahua sees that her skin is smooth, how can she not be happy?

When Yang Dahua heard this, she immediately backed off: "How long do you have to drink it?" One or two days, she would be willing to drink it if she was given silver, after all, she is making money now, but if she drinks it for so long, she will feel sorry for the money. Of course, she was unwilling to drink for free without paying. People have their own dignity, so how could she feel embarrassed?

Yang Haiyan looked at her and naturally understood: "Sister Dahua, how about this, I will give you a bowl of goat milk every day, and charge you one cent. You can try it for a month. If you feel good, you can continue to drink it?" She was just doing it for free, so she didn't mind giving it to Yang Dahua for free. But she also knew that Yang Dahua didn't want to take advantage of her, so she took one cent for the sake of courtesy. Anyway, one cent was also earned for her, and for Yang Dahua, it would be acceptable in terms of dignity and dignity. Otherwise, eating other people's food for free would always be inferior to them.

Yang Dahua heard that it was only 30 cents a month. She went to the county town every ten days to sell handkerchiefs and purses, and could earn about 50 cents, which could earn 150 cents a month, so she could afford to spend 30 cents to drink goat milk. After thinking for a while, Yang Dahua said, "Okay." After all, women love beauty.
