For this reason, every time Ji Wei makes a cake, he has to draw it on the site of the propaganda, and finally make a picture book and make several copies. When someone orders a cake, it will be delivered to him and ordered.

This complete one-stop door-to-door service from ordering to delivery is an unheard and unseen sales method in this small town of Changliu. careful thought.

Therefore, the launch of birthday cakes suddenly became popular in Changliu Town.

As long as it is a big family with head and face, if they entertain guests, they will put a birthday cake on the table to show their appearance.

But behind the booming business, problems followed.

Among them, the weaning of ewes gave Ji Wei the most headache.

Although not all weaning at once, but now such a trend has been shown.

The daily delivery of goat milk is constantly decreasing, and it has long been unable to meet the needs of the store. In addition, one of the most basic ingredients for the pastries made by Ji Wei is milk. Without milk, it is difficult to form biscuits or cakes.

Ji Wei was not ignorant about this matter.

Physiological weaning cannot be controlled by human beings, so on Zhao Laizi's side, throttling is impossible. Ji Wei can only think of other ways to discuss with the shopkeepers of grocery stores in various streets to find milk sources together.

It is a pity that milk sources are easy to obtain, but a large and stable source of milk is even more difficult.

Like Zhao Lazi, he can circle a small hill and raise hundreds of lambs in one go. Looking at the entire Changliu Town, he can't find a second one.

The vast majority of the mutton business is all handled by Zhao Cripple alone. The people next to him are just drinking soup and picking up some leaks. They can't make a lot of money, and there is no one to support them at all.

What's more, mutton is more expensive than pork, and fewer people can afford it. Except for a small number of people who buy mutton from Zhao Laizi's house, most of them are sold to other towns, or even sent to Qingcheng. If even Zhao lame can't be supplied, then it will be even more difficult to replace someone else.

The ewe of Zhao Lazi's family was weaned, and Ji Wei's shop could not be opened. He was so anxious that he couldn't sleep at night, and he was so busy that his feet did not touch the ground. For several days, he ran around looking for people during the day, and slept in the back room of the shop at night, and he never returned to the old house in Xixiang.

But Rao is like this, but he still hasn't found a suitable family.

"Zhao Hu, send someone to deliver this cake." Ji Wei took the time to finish today's cake order, and found a place to sit.

The weather was hot, and the temperature in the bakery was extremely high. He only made cakes here for more than half an hour, and his hot hair stuck to his forehead, as if he had been scooped out of water.

A Qiu held a kettle and a tea bowl, and shuttled water in the pile of men.

After turning around, just stopped to rest, he swept to Ji Wei who was sitting on the ground in front of the house, ran towards him again, poured a bowl of water and handed it to him, "Brother Ji, drink a bowl of water."

"Thanks."

"Do you want to take a break? It's so hot, it's not good in case of heatstroke."

"I have rough skin and thick flesh, so I can't." Ji Wei drank dry water and handed the large enamel bowl to A Qiu.

"Mianmian isn't at home, you haven't been back to the West Alley for a long time." A Qiu squatted beside Ji Wei and counted her fingers, and why had she lived in this back room for five days, "This place is simple, stay for a while. It's only for a few days. It's not suitable to live for a long time. It's better for Brother Ji to go home and rest. If you are tired and fall ill, no one around you can take care of you. "

"I'm a big man with good hands and feet. Who do I need to take care of me? Not to mention that you can live there, so what can't I live in?" Ji Wei stood up, patted the little tadpole under him, and gave it to him. Aqiu sat down.

"Your face is pale, and you're sweating a lot. You should rest better than me. Sit down."

Aqiu also felt weak in her footsteps, and sat on the tumbler without any refusal, feeling a little embarrassed, "I had nowhere to go back then, if Brother Ji hadn't taken me in, I'd probably have to live on the street, so I don't have the right to dislike it. ?"

Speaking of this, have to mention the dispute between Mao Lintie and A Qiuchu when he came to the Beijie shop to help.

Mao's house was on the other side of East Street. It was not far from North Street, but it was definitely not close.

Regardless of Mao Lintie's objection, Aqiu resolutely ran from home to North Street to work, and had a falling out with Mao Lintie. He didn't even return home with the wages, so he lived in the house behind the shop to live together. sleep.

After a few days, there was no one at home, and Mao Lintie couldn't hold it anymore, so he ran to beg Aqiu to go back, but he didn't dare to yell at him at will, even his usual voice was three degrees lower. He also often catches fish and shrimp for A Qiu, and buys pork to please him.

Since then, A Qiu's time at home has really nourished a lot.

"It can make your husband and wife more harmonious, such trivial matters are not worth mentioning." Ji Wei looked at A Qiu up and down, and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, you seem to have gained some flesh these days, it seems that the food is good. "

Aqiu looked down at her abdomen, a little distressed, "I don't know why, the weather has been hot recently, and I have no appetite, but I have grown a lot of meat."

"It's good to have more meat. It's easy to get sick if you're too thin."

"You can stop laughing at me, the flesh grows too much, my family should despise me."

"After the last time, Brother Mao still dares to dislike you?"

Ji Wei blinked at Aqiu and joked, "It's not desirable to be thin for beauty, it's always best to be healthy. Look at Mianmian's weak appearance before, I raised some meat for him, and I don't know these days. Did it fall..."

As soon as the words came out, Ji Wei fell silent.

It's fine if you don't mention it, but as long as you think of the young man who has been away from home for many days and has not seen each other for many days, the emotions that have been suppressed for several days break through the shackles and pour out in an instant, pressing heavily on Ji Wei's heart.

He sighed without knowing it, a little melancholy, "It seems like more than a month since he left."

A Qiu, who was sitting next to him, was startled, looked up at the sky, counted in his heart, and it took a long time to confirm: "But Mianmian has only gone to the county school for less than ten days, you remembered it wrong."
