When everyone was so busy, someone from Liu's family came.

Fourth Uncle Liu and Cousin Liu's family all came to the county town to buy new year's goods. Since they came, they naturally wanted to visit their sisters in Yanlai Lane. heard that they were very busy with their livelihoods, and heard that there was no one to buy them.Belly.

I wanted to work with my cousin's family for a long time, but the eldest cousin who stayed in the village offered to let them buy pork belly in Liujia Village and a butcher's house in a nearby village?

Nowadays, all pig farmers in the farms are slaughtering new year pigs, and it is very easy to buy them in the countryside.

correct!

It's just that Liu He, an important labor force, can be liberated by asking his big cousin to send a belly every day. Chen Nianguan immediately agreed, and agreed that the salary will be 200 Wen per day.

So Liu He came back with his belly meat on the first day out of the field, and was told that he was squeezed out by his brother-in-law and his elder brother in the competition for employment. He took turns to take Liu Yun's position, and Liu Yun returned to the kitchen to help Chen Nianguan.Refining oyster sauce and preparing sauce.

The previous batch of jerky in sauce almost used up a jar of oyster sauce that Chen Nianguan made before, so now he can only make it again.

Fortunately, found a fisherman who sold oyster meat. bought 20 catties of dried oyster meat at a time, and agreed with the fisherman to continue buying his own dried oyster meat.

When Liu Yun was instructing Liu Yun to refine oil in the kitchen, the second aunt came to her outside and said that there was a guest.

Chen Nianguan asked Liu Yun to continue, and came out of the kitchen to see that it was the shopkeeper Yang whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Shopkeeper Yang is here to send money.

The pho business that Chen Nianguan and Yueman Building cooperated with was supposed to be sent over at the end of the month after calculating the income, but it coincided with the Chinese New Year, and restaurants around the country were also taking stock of the year's profit and loss, and at the same time collected the share of money sent by Yueman Building everywhere, so it has been delayed until now, shopkeeper Yang asked Chen Nianguan to forgive him.

Chen Nianguan saw that he was here to send money, so he was too happy, so how could he be angry?

In addition to teaching Yueman Building’s folks to make pho, it also takes time to distribute it to Yueman Building branches in various places, and it needs to be promoted before it starts selling. Therefore, the profits of each branch are not much from pho, and the largest share is still FuYueman Building in Ning County, but there are also six taels of silver in total.

Chen Nianguan, who got the money, smiled happily, and readily took out his stamp and pressed it on the receipt document.

Six taels, that is to say, if she doesn't do anything every month, even if she gets only half of the three taels sent by Yueman Building, she can live well on this money.

You can earn money just by lying down, ah, that's how the charter woman collects the rent every month, right?

Shopkeeper Yang saw Chen Nianwan smiling with squinted eyes, and couldn't help laughing too.

Following the fame of Chenjia Hor Fun in Funing County, Funing County has set off a wave of Chenjiajiang jerky.

Less than a month after Er Dong's purchase of Chen's preserved meat, Miss Chen Si has created a new dish, which should not be underestimated.

Shopkeeper Yang has no plans to vigorously introduce sauced pork jerky to Yueman Building. As far as he knows, Fuxing Building has already promoted this series of sauced meat dishes. In addition, people who patronize the restaurant now, almost everyone must have ChenDried pork with home sauce, adhering to the principle that everyone has something and I have it, the shopkeeper Yang only asked the restaurant staff to order 20 packs from Chen Nianguan, and also ordered five packs for the Chinese New Year.

Shopkeeper Yang would like to order some to deliver to his owner in Capital City, but now the waterway is impassable, and it usually takes a month to go by land. If it is cold today and the road is not good, it may take longer. So,When the sauced jerky is delivered to Capital City, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat it, so shopkeeper Yang stopped thinking about it.

When Chen Nianwan returned to the kitchen, he saw that Liu Yun had already smelted the oyster juice. After sniffing and tasting it, the color was good. Chen Nianguan gave Liu Yun a thumbs up.

Liu Yun smiled shyly.

Chen Nianguan has thoroughly determined Liu Yun's ability, and plans to ask Liu He for his opinion when he is free, and if he would like to keep his sister by her side in the future, she can teach Liu Yun various eating methods at any time, so that she can become her own ultimatearms.

Coincidentally, the cellar under the small warehouse has been dug, and according to Chen Nianguan's request, bricks and mud were bought to strengthen the inside and paint it.

In fact, it is a cellar. The cellar layout originally conceived by Chen Nianguan is more like a basement. The entrance and exit are on the right side of the small warehouse. It is a passageway that is built with bricks and a platform that is one floor above the ground.Close it, and place a low table on it to store things. No one will know that this is the entrance to the cellar.

Considering the conditions of this era, when digging a cellar, the first thing Chen Nianguan had to solve was the lack of oxygen, and Chen Nianguan’s solution was to use bricks and wood to build pillars to support the cellar in the small warehouse.It extends up to the entrance window of the small warehouse, and a bamboo fence is placed on it. It looks like a protruding wall post on the outside, which is used to hang things.

There are three such unventilated square columns, which support the dug cellar, so that it will not easily collapse.Liu He and the others, who had never seen such a cellar layout, were puzzled, but Chen Nianwan, who had studied mechanics and knew a little mechanics, said that it would be good to trust her on this point, and don't ask too much.

As for the inside of the cellar, Liu He was asked to go to the brick kiln to buy a carload of bricks, and built a side wall around the excavated cellar, so that the excess soil would not be afraid of falling into the cellar, forming a clean and tidy structure.inner space.

The cellar has been dug for more than a month. It is about 30 square meters in size five meters below the ground. Now it has been standing still for five days, and the buckets that were brought down to absorb the excess odor have frozen.

The cellar is still empty now. Although it was originally intended to be used for Tibetans, it can also be used as a second place to store food when it is not hidden. For example, storing dried meat here can obviously extend the validity period..

Chen Nianguan was very satisfied with the cellar, expressed his gratitude to his cousins for their hard work, and decided to take some time to reward them.

Liu He naturally expressed his impoliteness on behalf of his elder brothers and younger brothers, so what's the point of doing some hard work?Following cousin for the past few months, have earned money that country people dare not dream of in half their lives.

Especially since he played more books this time, the money he earned has doubled.

Chen Nianwan also wondered why other cousins could only pay six taels at most, but Liu He could pay twelve taels, and only then heard him say that because the uncle and aunt of the third room are gone, Liu He is the one who is in chargePersonally, Uncle Liu thinks that Liuhe knows how to measure, so he usually let him take care of the money from the third room, and all the money left by the third uncle and the third aunt also went into Liuhe's hands, so Liuhe had the money on hand instead.the most.

Since he was the one who made the decision and had the experience of earning money with his cousin, when he came to Funing County, he took all of the Sanfang's family fortune into his pocket, wouldn't he be able to make a bold move for twelve taels?

Chen Nianguan called out enough courage, and after Liu He giggled, he asked what he wanted Liu Yun to learn how to cook with him, and Liu He respectfully said, "Cousin, it's her blessing that you are willing to teach Yun Yun, and it's also good for her."Well, I have a craft, and I won't be afraid of being looked down upon in the future, so I'm absolutely assured that Yunyun will be grateful to you if I entrust it to you."

Sure enough, after telling Liu Yun one later, Liu Yun was very pleasantly surprised, and the matter of Liu Yun learning to cook was confirmed.

Soon, when it was time to go to the state capital to sell jerky with sauce, Chen Nianguan told everyone in advance about the work assignment at that time.

Just like the last time, Chen Nianguan, Liu Chi, Liu Shan and Liu He drove to the state capital, but no matter whether the dried meat with sauce on the first day was sold out or not, the group of them did not return to Funing County that day.They stayed overnight in the mansion, and on the second day, they asked the eldest cousin and the fourth uncle to hire a carriage, packed the second batch of jerky sauce and sent it to Funing County.Chen Nianwan and the others would not return to Funing County until the delivery of the four-day supply and the jerky sauce were sold.

That is to say, the cost of renting a carriage for four days and staying at the State Inn for at least four nights must be added.

"The carriage is not good, it is easy to overturn when traveling on the mountain road."

When it came to hiring a carriage, some people raised objections.

Now the weather is cold, and the snow is falling in bursts. From Funing County to the state capital, many sections of the mountain roads are frozen, and even donkey carts are difficult to walk. The last time went to Fucheng was delayed a lot of time because of this.Donkey carts are safer than horse carts on mountain roads.

"But, doesn't our family still have a donkey? You don't need to rent a carriage, just like your cousin, install a carriage frame, match it with a bridle, bit, whip and bridle, and then order a carriage that is exactly the same, wouldn't it be good?" Liu Fengjuhand asked.

Well said, Chen Nianguan almost shouted Good-point!

It costs 500 yuan a day to rent a carriage from the chariot and horse shop, and it costs two taels of silver in four days. It is better to just spend more than two taels to upgrade the donkey of the Liu family to a donkey cart of its own donkey level, which is convenient and can continue to be used in the future.Woolen cloth!

Chen Nianguan gave Liu Feng a thumbs up to praise this big baby, and Liu Feng frowned.

So this glorious task was entrusted to Liu Feng, and he and Liu Chi led the donkey to the horse market, while Chen Nianguan went to the next door to Uncle He's house to build a carriage.

Hearing that Chen Nianguan was going to spend the night in the state capital, Liu was very worried, and nephews were fine, but her family, Wan Wan, had a girl, so Liu was worried.

After Zhang Erlang heard about it, he was also worried.

Yesterday the government sealed it, and today Qingyun Academy has a holiday for the students to go back to celebrate the New Year. He is also resting at home now, so he went to Chen Nianguan and volunteered to go to the state capital to sell jerky in sauce.

But Chen Nianguan shook his head, "You are a scholar, why do you follow us to the state capital to make a living so hard?"

"Even for scholars, there is no rule in the academy that says that scholars are not allowed to go to the state capital to make a living." Zhang Erlang said, "Besides, I am not afraid of hard work!"

Chen Nianguan still refused, and Zhang Erlang looked hurt after being rejected, Chen Nianguan couldn't help but remind him: "Brother Erlang, it is impossible for you to follow us to the state capital, if you want to leave, who will be responsible for writing the sauce?"The brand name on the jerky oil paper bag?"

Funing County Chenjia sauce beef jerky.

Zhang Erlang thought for a while, hesitated: "Really?" It's also possible, let someone else write it for you?

Chen Nianguan, who saw through his thoughts, told him not to think about changing people, "You can write beautifully. When we went to sell it last time, customers only bought it because of your writing. No one else can do this job except you.Can't do it."

"Really?" Zhang Erlang never thought that his handwriting was so important.

"Really, Brother Erlang, this job belongs to you." Chen Nianguan praised, "Your handwriting is good, and our Chen family's brand facade is supported by your handwriting." Not only this time in Funing CountyChenjia sauce jerky, and the previous Chenjia hor fun.

Zhang Erlang was boasted, and finally couldn't help smiling slightly.

It turned out that Ms. Chen liked his calligraphy so much.

Then he will continue to write more oil paper bags to promote sales, earn more money, and make Miss Chen happy.
