Although the woman said this calmly, her eyes fell on the chili con carne without moving away.
So much chili con carne, I want to take it all home to eat.
The other few people slowly came back to their senses.
The fat little woman smiled sheepishly, wiped her mouth slowly and said, “That one is really delicious.”
Jiang Zhiluo smiled and said: “It’s okay, everyone said it tastes delicious, and I’m happy too.”
Looking at Jiang Zhiluo’s beautiful and bright appearance, everyone felt that just looking at her was pleasing to the eye.
Plus she smiles brightly, which makes her feel heart-warming.
Moreover, although this home is simple, it is extremely clean and has a spotless feeling.
Looking at the fact that their family can only live in a small courtyard with a fence, I can’t help but feel a little sympathetic.
“Little lady, how do you sell this chili con carne?”
“One catty costs thirty cents, so a spoonful like this costs almost half a catty and fifteen cents.”
Jiang Zhiluo had already calculated the price in her mind.
Upon hearing the price, the aunt said: “Isn’t this price a bit expensive? It’s more expensive than a pound of meat.”
Jiang Zhiluo explained: “Auntie, I put a lot of spices, seasonings, peppers and meat in it. It takes a lot of effort to make and the cost is not low.”
“And don’t look at the thirty cents per catty, such a catty can last for a long time.”
“Madam, you have all tasted it just now, and you all know that you can eat several mouthfuls of dry food in just a small amount, and it is easy to store.”
“When you want to eat it, just take it out and eat it directly, no need to heat it up.”
“And you all know how it tastes, madam.”
Everyone felt that what this young lady said was very reasonable, and even if they wanted to bargain, they couldn’t refute it.
Seeing that everyone looked very relaxed, Jiang Zhiluo said: “Besides, I won’t make much this time. I plan to sell it at the dock tomorrow. I don’t know when I will make it next time.”
After hearing these words, everyone looked even more relaxed.
“Little lady, look, we want to buy a pound, but we don’t have anything to pack it with.”
“Yes, we are here to buy leek seeds. We never thought we could buy anything else.”
No one brought a container.
Jiang Zhiluo said generously: “I happen to have a few gourds at home, so I will use the gourds to fill them for you, auntie.”
In this era, gourds are also a good thing, and everyone is accustomed to using gourds to carry water and wine.
The usual water ladles are also made of gourds.
Many people will scatter a handful of seeds on the mountain to grow gourds.
This thing is very cheap. If everyone wants to use it, there is almost no need to buy it.
Mrs. Cui had previously obtained some gourds on the mountain to use as containers.
“Thank you then.”
Everyone thinks that Jiang Zhiluo speaks softly, has a nice smile, and is also good at doing things, which makes people feel very comfortable.
After loading the things, everyone asked about the leek seeds.
“That leek seed, is it one hundred cents a bag?”
Jiang Zhiluo nodded and said, “It’s indeed a hundred cents per bag.”
“Leeks are a good thing. You can cut them and eat them more than a month after they are planted. Moreover, if you cut them from the bottom, they will continue to grow…”
When Fan Cheng came to buy leek seeds before, Jiang Zhiluo told him that he could talk to the people in the village. If anyone still wanted to buy leek seeds, they could come and buy them here.
Unexpectedly, Fan Cheng was so sincere that people would come to buy things from Yangliu Village so quickly.
Everyone knew it well when they came, knowing that a small packet of leek seeds costs 100 cents.
Even though it’s just a small package, the food is delicious and it’s worth it.
“Well, Miss Jiang, if we buy this, will you teach us how to plant it?”
“Of course, if you buy it, I’ll teach you how to do it.”
Everyone felt more relieved after hearing this and asked some questions one after another. Everyone has done farm work. Jiang Zhiluo explained it a little and they understood.
At the end, each one paid the money and left with the leek seeds and chili con carne sauce.
The fat little woman bought two kilograms of chili con carne.
The group was very happy and left chatting and laughing.
Mrs. Cui couldn’t believe it when she looked at the six hundred and eighty coins on the table.
“Zhiluo, have we really made 680 cash now?”
You can make money without leaving home.
Jiang Zhiluo was also very happy and said: “Mom, come here and we will know.”
“You just counted them all, they must be right.”
Looking at Mrs. Cui’s expression, Jiang Zhiluo understood what she was thinking and said deliberately: “Mom, I may not have remembered clearly just now. Let’s count it again.”
She also likes the feeling of counting money now.
There is a sense of fulfillment and solidity.
Have money in hand and don’t feel panic.
Mrs. Cui smiled and sat down together and started counting.
“One article, two articles…”
Count a hundred coins and put them aside. The total is six hundred and eighty coins.
Mrs. Cui was very happy and said: “The conditions in Yangliu Village are still good. I won’t blink even if I take out more than a hundred coins.”
Jiang Zhiluo took out a rope and strung the copper coins together and said, “Maybe many families in their village have a lot of land, and some people are good at weaving and are skilled in making money, so they are willing to buy things.”
“I bought cotton cloth at the Yangliu Village Market before and chatted with the lady who ran the stall. She knew how to weave when she was young. Now she has given the loom to her daughter-in-law. She is a diligent little lady. I can weave one piece of cloth in one day.”
Mrs. Cui thought about it and said, “That’s right. One piece of cotton cloth and one tael of silver a day are a lot of money.”
Jiang Zhiluo said: “Mom, cotton is expensive. They weave cotton cloth at most half a piece a day, and they may have one piece of coarse cloth.”
“But cotton cloth is not purely profitable, and those thread **** are also expensive. But with this craft, you can indeed make money, and your life will be better than that of ordinary farmers.”
“It’s just that when you get older, your eyesight gets blurred easily. If you can’t see clearly, your hands and feet will become inflexible, and your weaving will be slower.”
“The lady I bought the cloth from was very capable when she was young, but as she got older, her legs and legs were not very good and she couldn’t weave. She could only help with housework while her daughter-in-law weaved.”
“Some people who can weave are like this.”
“But this is everyone’s craft, and not everyone can do it. There are still many families in Yangliu Village who live on farmland and can’t weave.”
Jiang Zhiluo chatted with the aunt for a while when she went to buy cloth, and she also knew these things.
With that said, Jiang Zhiluo strung the copper coins together, then took out a rope and said, “Mom, let me measure you so that I can take the time to make clothes for you.”
There was no ruler at home, so Jiang Zhiluo could only use a rope to measure it, so she had a good idea.
Mrs. Cui stood up and made it easier for Jiang Zhiluo to measure her.
After measuring, Jiang Zhiluo went into the room to prepare cotton cloth.
While she was busy in the house, Cui Hejin came back.
These days, Jiang Zhiluo has been busy doing business, but she has ignored Cui Hejin.
Seeing the footsteps, Jiang Zhiluo looked up and said with a smile: “My husband is back!”
Cui Hejin saw Jiang Zhiluo, his cold eyebrows softened, and he nodded gently, “Yes.”
Looking at the coarse linen clothes on Cui Hejin, Jiang Zhiluo couldn’t help but sigh. He was wearing this like the clouds in the sky, with an elegant demeanor.
I don’t know what it would be like to change into cotton clothes.
Thinking of this, Jiang Zhiluo blinked her eyes and said, “Husband, please stand still and don’t move.”
“Um?”
Cui Hejin raised the end of his eyes, giving off a glamorous and charming aura.
