90s, The Cannon Fodder Wife of the Paranoid Boss is Reborn

Chapter 41 He is happy

Not only new and old customers like it, but also the vendors and owners in the vegetable market opposite want to have a try.

Wen Xiuyun has been selling fruit for so many years, and she can’t remember how long it has been since the supply exceeded demand. Not to mention how happy she was, she kept asking Bai Lu to make more.

Bai Lu originally planned to fry 30 pounds in the morning and 30 pounds in the afternoon.

I was originally worried that the sales would not start so quickly on the first day of sales. I didn’t expect that Wen Xiuyun’s early test results in the past two days were so effective. Now there is no need to worry.

After the agreement was reached, Wen Xiuyun happily went back to the stall to wait.

Stir-frying chestnuts is a technical job. If it weren't for practicing Juntiquan every day these days, I would be exhausted.

 Xiao Wei ran over when he heard the sound of chestnuts being stir-fried.

 I want to help Bai Lu, but...it seems like sand and chestnuts are mixed together, not as simple as cooking.

 After only 20 minutes of constant stir-frying, his arms were so tired that they felt like they were about to fall off the bones and no longer belonged to him.

It’s okay to stop once in a while. The key is that once you stop, the chestnuts and sand in the pot will mash into a ball.

 Really, I can’t stop at all!

 “Come on, Xiaowei!” Bai Lu tore open a pack of spicy sticks and handed one to the little guy’s mouth: “Quickly eat one of the unique spicy sticks, increase the heat and continue frying.”

Xiao Wei thought it was because he was hungry, not because the spicy strips were too fragrant, nor because Bailu gave them to him.

 Although it's a little spicy, it's really delicious. It's the fragrant taste he imagined.

 After eating, I do seem to have a little more energy.

 The fire was fully turned on, a pot weighed ten kilograms, and it took more than thirty minutes to roast chestnuts with sugar. He was stunned to finish it all by himself.

Bai Lu was so happy that she rewarded him with two packs of spicy strips.

 The remaining twenty kilograms will be taken care of by yourself.

Roasted chestnuts with sugar When mentioning the fruit stall, Wen Xiuyun’s stall was crowded with people, all waiting to buy roasted chestnuts with sugar.

They are available for all ages, and there are many junior high school students and high school students who buy them and take them back to school to eat.

 Business has been very good for three days in a row.

 Except for the first day when he only sold sixty catties, in the following days, he sold eighty or ninety catties every day.

On the fourth day, there were not many chestnuts left. Thirty kilograms of chestnuts were roasted in the morning, and there were about forty kilograms left in the afternoon.

Not long after lunch, Bailu started to fry. In the past, Xiao Cheng would start frying after he went to work.

　This early speculation, Xiao Cheng saw the process.

I saw Bai Lu holding a spatula and frying chestnuts continuously for dozens of minutes without stopping.

 Then he took over.

Bai Lu looked confused. She looked at her empty hands and then at the man beside her who was constantly frying chestnuts, as if the sweet heat from the pot hit her face.

“If you’re not tired, I’ll do the cooking. The doctor said that proper exercise will help with production.”

 “It’s okay.” Xiao Cheng continued to stir-fry.

 The movements of his hands did not stop for a moment because of her explanation. She knew how to stir-fry and how to put the syrup.

 Learning and applying it flexibly is indeed his strength.

Bai Lu and Xiao Wei, who was lighting the fire, were both stunned.

Good guy, after she and her classmate Xiaowei had been cooking for dozens of minutes, their arms were so sore that they had to eat spicy strips to stay strong.

This big guy doesn't need it at all. With his amazing arm strength, more than 40 kilograms is no problem. He is still full of energy after the whole exercise, without even a drop of sweat on his forehead. Bai Lu didn't even have a chance to be attentive and help wipe away the sweat.

 After frying the chestnuts, it’s time to start work.

When Xiao Cheng went out, Bai Lu folded a big funnel out of old calendar paper and filled it with a funnel full of chestnuts for him.

"This is the last pot of chestnuts from the chestnut tree at home. Eat more and there won't be any more after today. Although you can save it for tomorrow, the taste overnight is not as good as the freshly roasted chestnuts. It will take a long time for the chestnut trees in the backyard to be harvested. I can’t even eat chestnuts if I want to…”

Even though Bai Lu said it was a pity, regret, and treasure, Xiao Cheng's throat still felt a little itchy when he looked at a funnel full of chestnuts fried with maltose in front of him.

In the past few days, I left him chestnuts and maltose water in the open air during the day, which almost drove him crazy.

 Seeing the sack of chestnuts shrinking day by day, he was happy, but now...

 The sunny smile on the girl's face, the chestnuts left specially for him in her hand, and her gentle voice.

 Xiao Cheng finally took the chestnut.

The group of old men who are building a new house next door have asked Xiao Cheng to ask for roasted chestnuts every day since they ate the roasted chestnuts brought by Bai Lu and Xiao Wei last time. Xiao Cheng refused to give them and asked them to buy them themselves. Everyone said Can't buy it.

　　It is said that women’s panic-buying methods are much better than theirs, and they can’t even grab a penny.

 A group of old men, not little girls, don’t know why they like sweets so much.

Then three and a half dollars each.

Xiao Cheng weighed the chestnuts in his hand. He should be able to sell them for hundreds of yuan. He would sell half of them and keep half.

fine.

As soon as the last basket of sugar-roasted chestnuts was delivered to Wen Xiuyun's fruit stall, Bai Lu heard shouting from the opposite side.

“Roasted chestnuts with sugar, fragrant and crispy roasted chestnuts with roasted sugar! Roasted chestnuts with sugar for three yuan a pound! Don’t miss it when you pass by, roasted chestnuts with sugar for only three yuan a pound~”

Hearing the sound, it was thick and powerful, resounding in all directions, both coarse and fine. At a glance, it turned out to be Li Shuixian.

Bai Lu pursed her lips: "You shouted really loudly."

Wen Xiuyun placed the chestnuts in the best position. When she heard shouting from the opposite side, she couldn't help but feel a little worried: "The chestnuts she sells are cheaper than ours. Even if the taste is not as good, she can still take away a lot of our business."

"I just don't know how many chestnuts she has saved. We are selling the ones that are scarce in the season, and now we are in the last batch. New sources of goods have not been found yet, and the chestnut trees have just bloomed. The chestnuts will not mature until after the Mid-Autumn Festival. She has If there is a large supply of goods in stock, our first reputation may be snatched away by her. "

Bai Lu looked at the large pot of burnt black chestnuts in different shades of color at Li Shuixian's stall.

The corners of his lips were slightly raised, and his tone was calm and calm: "Don't worry, let her sell it. After we sell this batch of chestnuts, we will take a break and slowly look for better sources."

  Let Li Shuixian make a transition, find new sources of supply, and rebound again.

 Knock her off the cliff in a matter of minutes.

Wen Xiuyun couldn't help but sigh: "There are chestnut trees all over the mountains and plains in the countryside. When the Mid-Autumn Festival comes, the chestnuts fall all over the ground. There was nothing to eat before, but many people store chestnuts and eat them slowly."

"Life has gotten better in recent years. Everyone is tired of eating chestnuts in season. No one picks them up if they fall on the ground. Almost no one wastes time and goes to the mountains to pick up chestnuts, wash them, dry them and store them. I asked In our entire village, not a single household has a store.”

Bai Lu smiled and gave Wen Xiuyun a reassuring look: "Don't worry, fifth aunt, you will always find her."

Seeing her confident look, Wen Xiuyun could not help but feel relieved, and nodded with a smile.

 Bai Lu is so smart, she must have a way.

 She sold all the chestnuts and waited for the money.
