Chapter 30
byWhen Zhang Moyuan and the others came back, Lin Yan told them his preliminary plan.
Zhang Moyuan naturally had no objection, he never objected to what Lin Yan was going to do.
Brother Lin thought for a while and asked, "Yan'er, who do you plan to send?"
On the side of the reclamation of the sea, the land is allocated according to the number of registered people. The more people sent by the family, the more fields that can be allocated in the future, the better.
The three elder brothers of the Lin family are all registered, as well as Zhang Moyuan, but he is the chief commander and water conservancy engineer, which is different from Brother Lin and the others.
If Lin Yan needs manpower, Zhang Moyuan will definitely not be able to leave, there are only three of them.
Brother Lin is the eldest in the family, and he has been used to letting his younger brothers make choices first since he was a child.
So he glanced at Brother Lin and Brother Linsan while asking.
Brother Linsan is eager to try, he is very interested in new things, and Lin Yan couldn't help but want to raise his hand when Lin Yan said it.
"Little brother, let me go, I am very familiar with the roads of the surrounding villages, and I have been to the town several times."
Lin Yan nodded. In fact, Brother Linsan was the first choice that popped into his mind when he decided to do delivery.
Because Brother Linsan is quick-witted, eloquent, and has a lively personality, there is no need to worry about the effect of his promotion.
Then there is a need for someone with a more stable personality, who is a perfect match with Brother Linsan's every movement and stillness.
Brother Lin and Second Brother Lin are both calm and calm, and anyone can go.
Big brother Lin glanced at second brother Lin, and said, "Second brother, go, you and third brother are often together, and we have a tacit understanding in doing things."
Second Brother Lin was a little hesitant, but he also knew that either he or Brother Lin could go.
Lin Yan looked at it for a while, and after confirming that all three brothers wanted to do food delivery, he opened his mouth and said, "The eldest brother and the second brother take turns.Some, Mo Yuan and I can also replace you in the future."
Zhang Moyuan, one is worth two.
Father Lin immediately responded to him, "I think this is the best way, and we all do it together."
He didn't say anything just now, but he was actually very embarrassed, and wanted to hold a bowl of water level. Now Lin Yan's idea couldn't be more in line with his wishes.
Mrs. Lin was also very happy. Hai Bei in his arms raised her hand actively, "Uncle, I want to go too."
Brother Linsan patted his head, "Follow Third Uncle, be Third Uncle's younger brother."
Lin Yan smiled and said, "Yes."
Although Hai Bei is only five years old, he is a clever little ghost, and his temperament is as steady as that of Brother Lin, so it won't be a bad thing to run with him.
Now there are adults at home every day, and Hishell is taken care of by someone.
Hai Bei has been staying at home to take care of his younger brother, and he is probably overwhelmed.
In the end, Lin Yan glanced at Father Lin's expression and said, "I will encounter a lot of troubles at the beginning, so I want to go with you."
He purposely saved this remark until the end, lest everyone disagree, especially Father Lin.
"No, the sky is getting hotter and hotter."
"It's okay, my stomach is only a little over a month old, I can come back and rest after my brothers get started."
Father Lin is not a persuasive person. There is only one reason for tossing and turning, the weather is too hot and he will suffer from heatstroke.
Lin Yan secretly looked at Zhang Moyuan, gave him winks, and asked him to speak for him.
Zhang Moyuan had no choice but to say: "Father, today the doctor also said that you should move around more when you are pregnant, so you can let him go."
Lin Yan nodded desperately, "That's right, Father."
Father Lin: "..."
Lin Yan went to wink at his elder brothers again, but due to his power, the elder brothers could only speak for him, and they guaranteed that they would favor him.
Even Hai Bei raised his hand and said that he would protect his uncle.
What else can Father Lin say, he can only agree.
Sister Lin comforted him, "Dad, don't worry, we will all take good care of Brother Yan."
Father Lin nodded.
The next day, Lin Yan talked to the guests about the food delivery, and promised that as long as they ordered food, no matter what the order was, no matter how much they ordered, they would send an extra set of ice cubes.
I heard that in the future, as long as you wait at home, someone will deliver things to your door. Everyone is very happy, especially the elderly.
Most of the young people in their family work outside, and they are the ones who do things like shopping.
It takes one or two hours to go back and forth at every turn, which is really too much.
Lin Yan is responsible for registering the addresses of the customers and the things they need. Regular customers usually order more. After all, they usually have to weigh whether they can carry it when they buy it by themselves, but it is different for Lin Yan to give them gifts.
After a while, memorized two full sheets of paper.
To sum up, apart from those in the town, the rest are villagers from several surrounding villages, mainly Jiahe Village, Yanxin Village, and Wangu Village.
Lin Yan probably knew it in his heart.
On the last day of the stall, Lin Yan was busy until the evening before going back. He had been writing for a whole day, and his hand was about to cramp.
He is not familiar with the fonts of this era, so most of the time he uses symbols instead, which only he can understand.
Before going back, he turned to a cloth shop to buy some strong linen, planning to go back and make some handmade ice packs.
When they got home, Zhang Moyuan and the others were already there.
The whole family is busy with delivery today.
Brother Lin asked Uncle Yuan to buy a strong ox today. In order to save time, he simply put the ox cart on there.
It looked similar to the carriage that Lin Yan saw on TV, except that the horse was replaced by a cow.
Lin's second brother, Brother Linsan, even ran around several nearby villages to figure out the fastest route.At the same time, according to what Lin Yan said, they visited the village chiefs of Yanxin Village and Wangu Village, told them about the delivery, and agreed on an approximate time.
When they delivered the things, the village chief only needed to shout, and the whole village would rush over immediately.
In this way, the province will send one by one.
After Zhang Moyuan came back from the beach, he wrote a summary of commonly used words, and then gave it to Brother Lin, and taught them to record it simply.
When Lin Yan and the others entered the door, the three elder brothers were struggling to learn with pens in their hands. No matter how awkward the posture of holding the pen was, their expressions were very serious.
After the family finished dinner, Father Lin immediately picked up the piece of linen that Lin Yan bought, and asked curiously, "Yan'er, how do you make the ice you mentioned?"
Lin Yan took the pen and paper and explained while drawing.
He bought that kind of burlap, which is cheap and hard. It is most suitable for fixing things, and there are holes in the burlap to facilitate water seepage.
"Cut a long block, wrap a folded thick cotton cloth in the middle, and make long strips on both sides, which can be tied up."
Father Lin understood, "Isn't this just a scarf with something wrapped in it?"
"Yes, it's the headscarf."
Mrs. Lin asked suspiciously, "Brother Yan, why are we making headscarves?"
"The cotton cloth inside can be soaked in water, and then put it in the ice cream. After the ice is put in, take it out and tie it on the forehead or arm to cool down."
In fact, what Lin Yan was talking about was the kind of ice pads that are very common in modern times, used to physically cool down.
Aunt Lin suddenly realized, and praised: "Brother Yan, you are still thoughtful."
After understanding, Aunt Lin and Aunt Lin picked up the scissors and started to work. They had more experience in needlework than Lin Yan, and they even improved the drawings for Lin Yan while doing it.
There is not much technical difficulty in this thing. They made more than a dozen in a short while, and even tested it in water on the spot.
The cooling effect is very good.
The three elder brothers of the Lin family put one on their heads and continued to write.
The whole family sat together and checked tomorrow's affairs again, and then went to rest.
It was finally decided that Brother Lin, Sister Lin and Brother Linsan Lin Yan would go together on the first day.
When Lin Yan got up the next day, Aunt Lin and Sister Lin had already opened several large jars of oysters and put them neatly in the ice cream.
There was also a huge plate of processed shrimp on the side.
Lin Yan actually persuaded him several times, but Father Lin and Sister-in-law Lin still got up early, including Brother Lin and the others, they were all used to it.
After coming here for more than a month, Lin Yan's habit of going to bed late and waking up late has almost changed.
He washed his hands and started to make raw marinated shrimp. Brother Lin had already started to move things to the bullock cart after finishing.
The barbecue grill was also brought, and Brother Lin also made a simple wooden shelf, on which the barbecue grill can be placed directly.
In case there were not enough ice cubes, he carefully put half a bag of saltpeter on it.
The first stop was Yanxin Village, which was closest to them.
Most of the oysters in Lin Yan's hands were provided by Yanxin Village. Naturally, they would not buy cold oysters, and they might not buy raw pickled shrimp because they were expensive, so Lin Yan prepared lemonade for them.
He planned to sell ice cubes after a while, when the Qiu family stopped watching so closely.
The village head of Yanxin Village had already notified each family. When Lin Yan and his ox cart arrived at the village head's house, the yard was already crowded with villagers, and everyone was carrying ice creams of various sizes in their hands.
Brother Linsan smiled and introduced the items and prices in the car to the big guys. The price of lemonade is lower than that of cold oysters, and the ice cubes are relatively less.
You can use the fruit tea cup provided by Lin Yan to drink on the spot, or you can bring the cup yourself. One cup is about one tablespoon.
Many people buy five cups and ten cups.
In addition to buying ice cubes, there are also those who simply like lemonade.
Brother Lin brought out the grill, and Lin Yan started to cook the barbecue.
Most of the people in Yanxin Village have never eaten Lin Yan's barbecue. At first, they just had the idea of trying it, but they were amazed after taking a bite.
And the barbecue is served with iced lemonade, which is as happy as a fairy.
Later, Mrs. Lin couldn't wash the cups as fast as everyone else was drinking.
By the time everyone in Yanxin Village had finished shopping, the whole morning had passed.
Lin Yan specially gave him a lot of ice because he used the water from village chief Zhang's house.
Village head Zhang enthusiastically invited Lin Yan and the others to have lunch, but Lin Yan politely declined, since this place is not far from home, Father Lin must have prepared a meal and waited for them.
When talking to the village chief, Lin Yan noticed that someone was peeping at them, so he asked the village chief what was going on.
The village chief lowered his voice and said, "It's the people from the salt workshop. They usually buy ice from Qiu's house. Qiu's house is expensive, and they are greedy."
Lin Yan understood immediately.
He heard from Big Brother Lin and the others that the salt workshop is extremely hot in summer. Ji Gaochi searched and searched, and the stewards didn’t have enough money to buy ice cubes. They wanted to count them, let alone ordinary workers.up.
But this year because of Lin Yan, a strange phenomenon appeared in the workshop. The ordinary workers had more ice cubes than the managers.
Although they all use it in secret, the stewards are not stupid. It's so hot outside, and once you enter, you can faintly feel a cool air, how can you not feel it?
Find a few more people to ask, and it will come out naturally.
The strange thing is that after the stewards reported the matter, the county magistrate didn't respond, as if he had acquiesced.
So after a while, the big managers who are used to preferential treatment are all aggrieved. From the workers to the junior managers, everyone lives more comfortably than them.
They were not short of money, and wanted to come to Lin Yan to buy some ice cubes, but they were afraid that the Qiu family would blame them. After all, the private salt took advantage of the Qiu family.
After finding out what happened, Lin Yan felt relieved.
After working for a long time, he finally let go, Brother Lin took out the ice packs, one for each person, while his own was tied to his arm, and he let out a long and comfortable sigh.
Village head Zhang became interested when he saw it, "Brother Lin Yan, what is that thing on your arm?"
Brother Lin untied it generously and showed it to him, and even mentioned a few words about how to do it.
Village head Zhang nodded while listening, and said happily: "Wonderful, why didn't I think of that."
As he spoke, he hurriedly greeted his wife to come and see.
After tidying things up, Lin Yan and the others drove the ox cart home.
On the way, Lin Yan and his sister-in-law Brother Linsan took stock of the balance in their hands.
The two large jars of lemonade he brought were sold cleanly, even not enough. Lin Yan planned to make some other fruit tea next time. He wanted a fruit that was as refreshing as lemons, and the price should not be too expensive, otherwise the cost would be high.Too high.
The delivery channel is not suitable for making that kind of complicated drinks. After all, drinks are not a necessity, and they are not easy to store, and the possibility of waste is too high.
Wait until you have a store and try again.
They brought a total of 30 catties of pork, all of which were sold out. Judging from the reaction of Yanxin Village, they were still too conservative, so they can bring more next time.
Lin Yan's pickled shrimp with mustard is more popular than he expected. After all, the people in Yanxin Village are much richer than those in Jiahe Village, and the reservation list in his hand is filled with raw pickled shrimp.
There were also several large barrels of oysters in the ox cart, which they collected before they left.
To sum up, the first stop of delivery is much better than they expected, because they gather people in one place in advance, and their sales efficiency is very high.
As soon as he got home, Father Lin came up to meet him, and asked anxiously, "How is the sale?"
Lin Yan pointed to several ice mirrors under his feet, and Aunt Lin bent down to open them one by one, with a wider smile on his face.
"It's all sold out."
Brother Lin took off the ice pack on his arm and said, "Not only are they all sold out, but it's not enough. You can bring more next time you go."
Mrs. Lin whispered the number to Father Lin, and Father Lin's eyes widened immediately.
They had already made a lot of money when they were on Xishou Street before, but they actually made as much as two days of Xishou Street this morning.
This is still based on not bringing enough things.
While Lin Yan and the others were having lunch, Father Lin and Second Brother Lin began to help them prepare things for the afternoon.
Because just went to Xishou Street yesterday, went to Wangu Village first in the afternoon.
Wangu Village is different from Yanxin Village. They have a lot of pork, so Lin Yan focused on oysters and lemonade.
A lot of cold oysters have been opened, in addition to several buckets, and a few buckets of large oysters for barbecue.
"Yan'er, is there still two jars of lemonade?"
Lin Yan thought for a while and replied, "Let's add another pot, it will be hot in the afternoon."
"it is good."
Hai Bei hugged Lin Yan's thigh and said eagerly, "Uncle, take me with you."
Lin Yan patted his head and said with a smile: "It's hot in the afternoon, and your child can't use an ice pack. I'll take you there next morning, okay?"
Although Hai Bei was very disappointed, he still nodded obediently.
Hishell was sitting on a small stool eating Steamed Egg Soup by himself, but seeing that no one was paying attention, he sneaked into the yard and climbed onto the car with his short legs.
But he couldn't climb it, so he had to hang on it without going up or down.
Fortunately, Brother Lin, who always kept an eye on the bullock cart, saw him and arrested him.
Hai Ke whimpered aggrievedly.
Even Hai Bei was amused by him.
After lunch, Lin Yan and the others set off for Wangu Village.
When they arrived, it happened to be the hottest time of the day. Calculated by modern time, it was about one or two o'clock.
As soon as arrived at the entrance of the village, saw a familiar figure running towards me.
"Brother Yan, you are finally here."
Wang Xiu panted and waved back. His man came over carrying an ice mirror. When he saw Lin Yan, he smiled innocently, feeling a little embarrassed.
Wang Xiu opened the ice mirror, and there were twenty catties of pork inside.
"Brother Yan, this is the meat you ordered yesterday, and I brought it to you."
Brother Linsan stopped by Wang Xiu's house yesterday when Lin's second brother came to shop, and ordered 20 catties of meat from her.
Just in the afternoon, there is no need to bring meat.
"It's not enough to tell me, I'll get it for you again."
Lin Yan nodded, "Thank you, Sister Wang."
Wang Xiu waved her hand, "Why are you being polite to me? Come on, everyone is waiting for you at the village chief's house."
Lin Yan knew that Wang Xiu and her man often helped run around here in Wangu Village. Even Lin Yan had never met the village head of Wangu Village until now, and had been in contact through Wang Xiu.
However, Lin Yan, a villager in Wangu Village, is familiar with it. Many of them have gone to their homes to buy cold oysters.
Because of this relationship, as soon as Lin Yan arrived, everyone greeted him enthusiastically, and many people came to help, and everything was moved down quickly.
There is also someone who is eager to greet you and just say, "Brother Yan, I will buy ten cold oysters."
Lin Yan nodded with a smile, and then said loudly: "Uncles and aunts, I, sister Wang Xiu, should have told you all. Whatever you want in the future, just make an appointment with us. We will give it to you at the appointed time.Send it over, just like now."
As he said that, he took out the reservation form from the car, "Everyone will tell me in a while, and I will write down everything you want next time."
Immediately, several voices said anxiously: "I want that raw pickled shrimp."
"I want cold oysters, twenty servings."
Some people were not happy, "Twenty servings? You want so much, can you finish it?"
"What's the matter, I have three ice creams at home, I'll keep them and eat them slowly."
Lin Yan reminded: "Everyone, don't buy too much. Fresh oysters should be eaten in cold salad. Eating stale oysters will cause stomach upset."
In the past, everyone had to carry the ice back, so they bought ten copies at most, but now Lin Yan delivers the goods directly to the door, so many people, like the villager who spoke, thought about buying twenty copies at once and saving more..
"What Brother Yan said is, everyone should buy more."
"Brother Yan, you have so many pots and ice mirrors, what's in them?"
When brother Lin and sister-in-law Lin Sange were sorting things out, Lin Yan introduced to the villagers:
"These three jars are filled with lemonade. You can use your own cups to fill them. I also have cups here, which have been filled with ice."
When they heard that lemonade was served with ice, the villagers who didn't know what a lemon was originally pushed their family members to go back and get a cup.
"This ice book contains oysters. Ice cubes are included with cold oysters and lemonade."
As soon as the words fell, Hulala ran back to get the cups.
"There is also this ice mirror, which contains raw pickled shrimp, but the raw pickled shrimp is still limited."
Everyone knows why raw marinated shrimp is limited, and no one asked why after listening to it.
Brother Lin has already lit the barbecue stove.
Wang Xiu knew that the pork she sent on weekdays was roasted in this stove, so she went over curiously to have a look.
Lin Yan said with a smile: "Sister, you have given me meat for so long, and you haven't eaten my barbecue, have you? Shall I give you a piece to taste?"
Wang Xiu smiled, "Why is that so embarrassing?"
Although she was embarrassed, she couldn't help but look forward to it.
While Lin Yan was handling the pork, he put the oysters that Mrs. Lin had opened on the stove. He had done these things countless times, and he could do them perfectly even with his eyes closed.
After a while, the oysters and scallops gave off a spicy oily aroma, and Wang Xiu couldn't help swallowing.
The people who crowded around to buy lemonade and oysters were also attracted by the aroma.
They were not interested in barbecue at first. After all, it is convenient for them to buy pork, and they have long been tired of eating it. When they see pork, they even want to stay away.
When they approached, Lin Yan's pork belly also went down.
The air is full of the overbearing aroma unique to barbecue, even Brother Lin, who has eaten it several times, can't stand it, let alone these villagers who have never seen it before.
"It turns out that meat can still do this?"
"This smell is so delicious."
"Is this still the pig's head we usually eat?"
While everyone was discussing, Lin Yan had already prepared a portion for Wang Xiu, besides pork belly, there was also an oyster and scallop each.
Under the envious and nervous eyes of others, Wang Xiu blew, picked up a piece of pork belly and threw it into his mouth.
Then her eyes lit up.
At this moment, in the eyes of other people, Lin Yan seemed to see the effect of slow motion, from nervousness to surprise to envy to urgency, and finally couldn't help swallowing.
This reflects that he often saw them when he first came to Xishou Street to do business, but now they are basically regular customers, and it has been a long time since he saw them.
Wang Xiu picked a piece for her man, and her man nodded immediately, and honestly said two words, "Delicious."
Wang Xiu put her head down and ate a few mouthfuls. Lin Yan couldn't help reminding her, "Sister, drink some lemonade, don't make it spicy."
Wang Xiu turned her head and took a big sip of lemonade from her man's hand, then sighed, "This taste is so beautiful!"
"Brother Yan, bring me a bowl quickly."
"And me, I'll try oysters and scallops too."
"I came first, give it to me first."
The barbecue seriously exceeded expectations. Seeing that something was wrong, Wang Xiu immediately turned around and went home, "Brother Yan, I'll go home and get you some meat."
She ran fast, and when Lin Yan looked up, she was only a distant figure left.
