The Village Doctress Chapter 210: Moon Tower
Lin Fufu and Da Ya were eating kidney bean cakes vigorously, and Lao Liu climbed up the stairs.
Without waiting for Lin Fufu to answer, he happily said, "I couldn't stop laughing from ear to ear when I saw the fresh broad beans you sent, and said that these fresh broad beans arrived in a timely manner." Since it is made of dried broad beans, the fresh broad beans are not afraid of being out of stock, and can be provided throughout the winter!"
Lin Fufu smiled and nodded. She probably won't stop this supply.
"Uncle Liu is telling the truth, the market price of dried broad beans is low and worthless, so I didn't spend much to collect dried broad beans. But, my fresh broad beans are sold fresh, so the price is lower than that of dried broad beans. The price will increase." Lin Fufu said generously.
Old Liu is a sensible person, and with the good partnership between the old Liu family and Lin Fufu, he will never make Lin Fufu uncomfortable.
So, he squinted his eyes and smiled, "Of course, of course! To be honest, Uncle, I bought fresh broad beans from you, and of course I sell fresh broad beans when I make them into dishes, so the price is not high. I know how much higher it is. So, good news, just raise the price!"
Lin Fufu also laughed, this is the attitude of doing business.
Everyone is a sensible person, and their hearts are very open.
Seeing that Lin Fufu hadn't bid yet, Lao Liu rolled his eyes, patted his chest again and said, "Gospel, you can make an offer. If I, Lao Liu, negotiate business with others, the lower price will definitely make them cry. Yes. But who are you? The lucky star of Liuji Restaurant, no matter how much you drive, uncle will never blink!"
"Look at what you said." Lin Fufu said with a smile, then stretched out his white and tender hand, raised four fingers, looked at Lao Liu, "five cents a catty."
Old Liu was taken aback. He thought Lin Fufu asked for more than ten cents, but he didn't expect half of the price he expected.
He frowned, and said hesitantly: "Gospel, your asking price is too low, right?"
Even if he is a businessman by nature, he desires to spend the least amount of money to buy better and more goods, but when he intends to sell this dish made of fresh broad beans, he will sell even a simple plate of fried broad beans It's more than one liang of silver per plate!
And the plate is so full that it takes less than a catty of broad beans!
Lin Fufu saw that the shoppers thought the things were cheap, so he was happy, and Da Ya was also happy.
The two laughed.
"No..." Old Liu saw the two girls laughing, and he knew that it was a bit funny for him, a shopper, to think things were cheap, so he couldn't help laughing, and then said: "Gospel, to tell you the truth , the dishes I make with fresh broad beans, I earn at least this amount for each dish!"
Old Liu Chaolin Fu Gospel compared a finger.
Lin Fufu understands, this is a dish made of fresh broad beans, and his net profit is at least one tael of silver.
According to this profit, the restaurant business, as long as the business is good, is indeed a big profit.
No wonder she only provided Lao Liu with a few dishes last time, so he wrapped a red envelope of one thousand taels of silver.
Since Lao Liu has to earn so much money, after the fresh broad beans flow into other restaurants through Liu Qin's hands, other restaurants will also earn so much money.
That is indeed her price is low.
As for this season, she had thought of it a long time ago, so she didn't have to worry about not being able to sell fresh broad beans.
The big deal is that the price will be raised a little for the villagers when it is collected again next year.
After Lin Fufu figured it out, he tentatively asked Lao Liu, "Uncle Liu, how much do you think I should bid?"
Lao Liu really thought about Lin Fufu at this time, and said with a very serious expression: "According to Uncle's idea, Gospel, your fresh broad beans are only sold this winter season, so your first batch of fresh broad beans Ah, Uncle suggests that you should raise the price. For example, 30 Wen a catty."
"Pfft..." Hearing the price offered by Old Liu, Lin Fufu gulped down a sip of tea, raised his head and asked Old Liu, "Thirty Wen a catty?"
Old Liu saw her shocked, and raised his eyebrows proudly, "Yes, it's thirty yuan a catty! Think about it, you are the first one, and the price will of course be a little higher. But it will definitely be sold later. People have learned how to make fresh broad beans, and when there are more fresh broad beans, the price will naturally be cheaper, so you should lower the price accordingly.”
This is quite reasonable, Lin Fufu thought carefully.
Suddenly, she figured it out.
Lao Liu, an old fox, is actually afraid that some customers will care about the price of fresh broad beans he sells, so he deliberately raises the price when he collects them from her.
In this way, if new and old customers complain about the high price, Lao Liu will directly push out the seller of fresh broad beans. There is no way, the price is too high...
Furthermore, after raising the price, Lin Fufu accepted him as a favor.
In the future, more people will sell fresh broad beans, and the price will naturally drop. At that time, the cost of the restaurant will drop, but it will make a lot of money.
This is really a good idea to kill three birds with one stone.
"But don't worry about Gospel. Uncle speculates that no matter how much the price of fresh broad beans drops in the future, it will definitely remain at around ten cents. Because there are really not so many fresh vegetables in this winter!" Old Liu couldn't help but feel very helpless.
Lin Fufu nodded and comforted him, "Uncle Liu, after two or three days, I will send you two more vegetables. I think you will like it more."
Old Liu was even happier when he heard what Lin Fufu said.
He knew that Lin Fufu would do what he said, and he was not worried at all that he would not see fresh vegetables.
"That's 30 Wen for a catty of fresh broad beans." Lao Liu finally said, and then took out a small abacus and began to fight, "Forty-three catties is 1,200 yuan in total. Ninety taels of money, that’s thirteen taels of silver. Is the Gospel right?”
"I took advantage of Uncle Liu." Lin Fufu thanked him with a smile, not to mention that Lao Liu raised her four cents a catty to thirty cents a catty, but if she didn't reach forty-three catties, she counted forty Three catties, one thousand two hundred and ninety wen counted as one thousand three hundred wen, which is considered to be taking advantage of him.
Old Liu laughed loudly, "You still say this, what kind of cheap is this?"
Then he took out a red envelope from his sleeve and handed it to her, "Just now you told me about the dishes made with fresh broad beans, Mr. Tie, I heard very well. You must take this red envelope , not much.”
Lin Fufu accepted it with a smile. She knows the rules of the restaurant business, as long as the dish is said by others, the restaurant will buy it if it thinks it is feasible.
Generally, it is a red seal.
Once she receives Feng Hong, it means that no matter how well the restaurant sells its dishes in the future, it has nothing to do with her.
Lin Fufu naturally wouldn't care about that, otherwise he wouldn't have said it.
As for Lao Liu who didn't say much, she didn't know much either. After all, she just mentioned the name of the dish, and didn't teach Master Tie how to cook it.
In fact, she also has a few dishes that she hasn't cooked, even if she is asked to teach, she won't know how.
Let Master Tie figure it out by himself.
Lin Fufu remembered the food delivery, and asked, "Uncle Liu, how is the food delivery?"
Hearing her ask about this, Lao Liu smiled again and said: "I just launched this meal delivery a few days ago, and three of them ordered dinner that day, and sent someone to deliver it. As expected, it was still hot, but there were some vegetables. The dishes are a bit yellowish, but everything else is pretty good. The guests are very satisfied, but I made a lot of money. At least it greatly exceeds the cost."
"That's pretty good. After all, it's not winter yet, and there are still three orders a day." Lin Fufu comforted.
Old Liu said with a smile: "Hey, we received orders from ten customers yesterday, and some ordered lunch and dinner at the same time. There are eight customers who ordered food today, and the amount of the order is 100%. It's quite big. This business is successful!"
Old Liu gave a thumbs up, obviously very satisfied.
Lin Fufu was relieved, and then asked how the three food delivery people who introduced him were doing.
Lao Liu laughed, "Don't worry, Gospel, they are all capable and hardworking, but they don't care much about being clean." Afraid that Lin Gospel would not be happy to hear this, he laughed again: "I'll ask someone to give them three I bought a few new clothes, all of which are ready-to-wear. After tidying up, it will be fine."
Lin Fufu felt more at ease, and said, "Then trouble Uncle Liu."
"There's nothing to say about the person you introduced!" Lao Liu smiled and said something pleasant, and Lin Fufu chatted with him for a few more words before getting up to leave.
Old Liu was also busy with things, so he didn't keep her any longer, and sent her out graciously.
When Lin Fufu and Da Ya left, as usual, Lao Liu brought her a few large bags of cakes made by Master Tie and took them back to her.
Lin Fufu weighed the silver in his purse, and thought with a smile, there was another twelve taels of silver ingot and three pieces of silver.
There is also a red envelope.
She also didn't expect that her fresh broad beans could be sold for such a high price. Thinking of the hilly pile of dried broad beans in the shop, and the part that was peeled today, Lin Fufu felt that the hard work was really worth it.
Da Ya stayed with Lin Fufu the whole time. Since Lao Liu said that fresh broad beans cost thirty cents a catty, Da Ya never said a word.
She was deeply shocked.
Where do you know that fresh broad beans are so valuable!
She remembered that when Gospel made fresh broad beans for the first time, it was specially given to her family for a taster. At that time, she told their family how to make fresh broad beans.
My mother was thinking about doing business with Lin Fufu, but grandma refused...
If grandma had really listened to what mother said, wouldn't they be able to sell fresh broad beans for thirty cents a catty today?
And looking at the relationship between Gospel and Liu Ji Restaurant, there is no need to worry about not being able to sell it!
If they had followed the Gospel to do this fresh broad bean business, wouldn't their family be able to carry a bag of fresh broad beans casually, which would have exchanged for more than a dozen taels of silver?
That's the savings of a few years of hard work and frugality in their family...
The more I think about it, the more regretful I become, and I can't wait to let out a yell.
Lin Fufu didn't pay attention to Da Ya's expression. What she thought was that since fresh broad beans can be sold for 30 yuan a catty, mung bean sprouts and soybean sprouts can also be sold for 30 yuan a catty.
Based on this, the money she can earn this winter far exceeds her expectations.
Does she suddenly want to open a few more shops in Qingyang Town?
Or buy some land to be a landlady?
But if you think about it carefully, it's okay to sell land in Qingyang Town. She already has a house and two shops. Is it necessary to buy it again?
Why don't you save some money and go to Qinglian County to buy a few shops, regardless of the location, of course, the better the location is, the better.
After going to Qinglian County this time, she knew that Qinglian County was prosperous, and she wanted to develop into the county town no matter what.
Otherwise, if she stayed in Qingyang Town all her life, how could she develop her power to investigate the cause of her mother's sudden death?
Lin Fufu's eyes became gloomy, which shocked Da Ya who suddenly looked at her.
"Gospel, what's wrong with you? Are you not happy after earning so much money?" She asked strangely.
"Oh, it's nothing, I just thought of some difficult things." Lin Fufu said perfunctorily, then reached out his hand in his purse and touched a piece of silver for her, "Hey, this is for your hard-earned money today. But Take it away and don't tell anyone."
Da Ya stared blankly at the small piece of silver handed over by Lin Fufu. If you read it correctly, that small piece of silver was paid to her by Dong Liu's family, right?
Then, Gospel gave her a tael of silver?
My God...
Da Ya stared at her round eyes and almost fainted.
"Take it, let me tell you that you can't live without money, you have the confidence." Lin Fufu put the broken silver into the big girl's hand, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, this money I won't tell your family members. Your salary today will be settled as usual."
In fact, it was not only because Da Ya had worked so hard carrying the big bag of fresh broad beans to Liuji Restaurant, but also because Da Ya had inadvertently provided her with information about the original owner.
Of course, although Da Ya has a carefree personality, she is really comfortable to get along with, and she is the most trusted friend of the original owner, so she is willing to treat her kindly.
After she returned to the shop, Da Ya still went to peel the broad beans. Lin Fufu went around and saw that the five-guarantee households and the big girl were working diligently, and nodded slightly to express their satisfaction.
Thinking that it was still early, I left two packs of snacks from Liu Ji restaurant in the shop for the workers to eat, and still carried the remaining two packs in my hand, and went back to the new house in the town.
This time when she came back, she didn't see Huangfu Jin's person or news along the way. She knew that she didn't need to worry about him, but she was still a little anxious to get news about him.
Going back to the house in the town is to see if Huangfu Jin has returned to the house.
When she took out the key and opened the gate, she entered the yard, which was empty.
After entering the room again, the room was also quiet, and a trace of disappointment flashed quickly in Lin Fufu's clear almond eyes.
Then he left the house, walked through the yard and locked the door, intending to take a donkey cart back to Calabash Village.
"Gospel, you are indeed here." Li Yi walked over with brisk steps, dressed in elegant light blue lake silk.
When Lin Fufu saw that it was him, he quickly closed his eyes, raised his head and greeted him, "Brother Li, why are you here, but what's the matter?"
Li Yi looked her up and down seriously, and said with a smile, "I'm here to thank you! My eighth uncle told me and my uncle that my little aunt was in a dangerous situation in Qinglian County that day. It's not that you and my little aunt are cooperating with each other, my little aunt and that little brother don't know what happened."
When Li Yi said this, there was still a trace of fear in his voice.
But Lin Fufu keenly heard the names mentioned in his words.
Uncle Eight, Uncle, Aunt, Aunt, and Brother.
By saying that, Li Yi indirectly admitted to her that he is a child of the Li family.
Although Lin Fufu had guessed for a long time, Mrs. Li did not officially introduce Li Yi's identity to her, so she always pretended not to know.
Now that Li Yi personally admitted to her, for her, it was both unexpected and expected.
"Fufu, do you have something to do now?" Li Yi suddenly blushed and asked.
Lin Fufu thought it was strange that he blushed suddenly, but he didn't think too much about it. He nodded, "The town is fine, and I planned to go back to Hulu Village."
Li Yi said "Oh", looked up at the sky, and said: "It's still early, I invite you to Wangyue Tower to drink tea and listen to books."
Watching Moon Tower is a washhouse, that is to say, a place where you can read books and listen to music.
Entertainment places like Daweiguan are collectively called Washe.
Washe in Dawei can be visited by men, women and children. It is a place to spend leisure time, and the consumption here is cheap, whether poor or rich can come, so Washe is a very popular place in Dawei.
Especially popular with the poor.
Of course, it is also very popular with young men and women, because Da Wei has no restrictions on the men and women who can enter and leave the washhouse, and he will not think that going in and out of the washhouse to listen to books and songs is to corrupt customs.
Because the place in Washe is open-air, it's just a table of people drinking tea, listening to books and listening to music, with so many eyes staring at it, who has the ability to do something?
After all, who has the guts to do something?
Li Yi invited Lin Fufu to drink tea and listen to books. In fact, he came here to avoid suspicion. He was also afraid that Lin Fufu would misunderstand him, and he wanted to chat with Lin Fufu in an open and aboveboard manner. Such a place.
And Lin Fufu didn't know where the Moon Tower was at all.
The name sounds very elegant, so I asked, "Is that a teahouse?"
As soon as Li Yi heard it, she knew that she didn't know the details. He put his hand on his lips and coughed, and said with a smile, "It's not a tea house, it's a washhouse."
"Washer?" Lin Fufu dragged his tone, obviously he didn't know what Washer was.
But listening to the word Washe, why doesn't it feel like a serious place?
"A person who only drinks tea and listens to books?" Lin Fufu looked at Li Yi suspiciously, and always felt that the names of the two Washers were not good names, as if she had heard of them somewhere.
But after thinking about it carefully, I can't remember it.
"There are also those who listen to the music and the opera. There are special troupes who come to rehearse the opera." Li Yi explained, "But it depends on luck to meet the troupe to rehearse the opera."
Tick bar?
When Lin Fufu heard this word, he finally remembered it.
Goulan Washe...
This Great Wei also has Goulan Washe?
In her previous life, she was fond of opera, especially Yue opera and Kunqu opera...
In fact, many people have misunderstood that the ancient Goulan Washe was just a gathering place for entertainment venues in ancient big cities, and it was not an extended or misinterpreted curse at all.
For example, being called a Goulan woman is an insult to women, and Lin Fufu is also very disgusted.
After knowing the location of Wangyue Tower, Lin Fufu nodded readily and agreed. She didn't expect Qingyang Town to have such a place as Washe.
According to what she knew, washers were only found in big cities.
Then I really want to see and see.
