So Li Qiao went to the banker.
The Zhuang family didn't know that Tao Shu had gone to see Zhuang Wen to make trouble. Zhuang Wen was in the county seat. The Zhuang family usually didn't go to the county seat if they had nothing to do. The communication between the two parties was not timely.
At this time, the Zhuang family members were not angry after hearing what Li Qiao said. They would not be angry because of a rotten person like Tao Shu.
They were very happy that all three small bookshelves that Zhuang Wen brought to the county were sold?
Did it go so smoothly?
Zhuang Wu rubbed his hands happily: "I will go to the county town tomorrow to ask my elder brother and send him two coat racks."
In the past few days, he and several people from the manor made several tree branch-shaped coat racks and storage racks for Li Qiao.
"Bring my storage rack over here and check the market first. I'm not in a hurry to use this storage rack. You can just give it to me when Brother Zhu and I move into the new house."
Li Qiao said.
"Are you really not in a hurry to use it?" Zhuang Wu asked.
"It's really not a hurry. I'll just run my business without it."
"Sure, then I'll take you to the county seat to check out the market." Zhuang Wu nodded fiercely, his face full of excitement.
In fact, a small bookshelf can't make much money, and it can't make the banker rich, but he really likes to do this, and now his hobby can bring in some small money, which is wonderful.
The next day, Zhuang Wu drove an ox cart with a coat rack and a storage rack to the county town to find Zhuang Wen.
Zhuang Wen was very happy to see Zhuang Wu and quickly told him about selling three small bookshelves.
He was targeting classmates whose family background was similar to that of Zhuang's, and he was not afraid of embarrassment. Facing the strange looks from his classmates, he admitted that he was only proud that he had wasted thirty years and could now bring some income to his family.
If a man is born in this world and cannot even support a small family, how can he do his little part for the imperial court to support the people of the world?
In short, he was not afraid of being laughed at by his classmates and did not feel that this move would insult his status as a scholar. In addition, the small bookshelf was really good-looking and useful, so the three small bookshelves were sold easily.
Moreover, his selling price was much higher than Zhuang Wu expected.
Zhuang Wu originally thought that it would be great to earn 30 yuan in crafting fees for a small bookshelf.
As a result, the price Zhuang Wen sold was such that the net profit for each small bookshelf was 700 Wen.
This shocked him greatly.
How could it be sold for so much money?
"How can it be cheap to have anything to do with reading?" Zhuang Wen looked calm.
"I didn't expect you to be so talented in business, brother." Zhuang Wu was sincerely impressed.
"...Don't praise me from this perspective, I don't want to hear it." Zhuang Wen sighed.
Alas, what he wants is the talent for reading!
"However, since this small bookshelf is quite expensive, we should give Li Qiao some money." Zhuang Wu said.
"This is natural." Zhuang Wen nodded.
So, after Zhuang Wu returned to the village, he immediately went to find Li Qiao with the money.
After hearing Zhuang Wu's words, Li Qiao was a little shocked. He didn't expect that Zhuang Wen was quite good at selling.
But forget it.
Next, the two sides kept talking for half an hour. During this period, Zhuang Wu drank three large bowls of iced sour plum soup, but still failed to get what he wanted.
No matter how he tried to persuade him, Li Qiao just refused to accept the money.
Li Qiao's idea is quite simple. Although a small bookshelf is simple, it still takes two or three days to make one. The market in Pingcheng is so big that it is easily saturated.
So, regardless of whether the first sale was good, you actually didn’t make much money.
Seeing this, Zhuang Wu could only stand up and say goodbye.
But when he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, then threw the string of copper coins in his hand that Li Qiao had rejected again and again into the yard, and he ran away.
"Thirty-seven points, you three, here are 700 articles on the small bookshelf, if you don't want it, just throw it away!"
Li Qiao: "..."
Tao Zhu: "..."
The two of them looked at the bunch of money on the ground, and then looked at Zhuang Wu's back running faster than a rabbit, feeling helpless.
Li Qiao walked over and picked up the bunch of copper plates. Then he handed the money to Tao Zhu: "Brother Zhu, put it away. We will buy the coat racks and storage racks from the dealer in the future."
"Okay." Tao Zhu nodded.
The banker is not willing to let Li Qiao suffer, so Li Qiao is naturally not willing to take advantage of the banker.
Thinking of Han Xiaoyan, he secretly sighed, it would be great if everyone was like the banker.
The dealer's small furniture business is going smoothly, and the business in Wangyue Tower is getting better and better.
In just a few days, the green dumplings stuffed with egg yolk and meat floss have become the most popular dim sum in Pingcheng. People who have tried it praise it and those who can’t eat it want to eat it. In this case, the green dumplings stuffed with egg yolk and meat floss are becoming more and more popular. fire.
There are more and more people in Wangyue Tower.
There are more people in Wangyue Tower, and naturally there are fewer people in Zuixianju.
In the evening, shopkeeper Zhao looked at the deserted Zuixianju with a gloomy face that was about to drip.
He originally thought that Li Qiao's greatest ability in his life was to stay in the valley and sell snacks. If it weren't for the Youth League, he didn't believe he couldn't do it.
As a result, reality slapped him hard. He really couldn't make Qingtuan with the same taste.
What's even more amazing is that Li Qiao also made a green dumpling stuffed with egg yolk and meat floss!
He understands egg yolk, but what is meat floss?
He and all the cooks at Zuixianju carefully peeled the stuffing of egg yolk and meat floss countless times, but couldn't find any meat!
So angry!

The author has something to say:
I'm back, there will be more updates tomorrow!
Chapter 54 Corn Grilled Sausage Li Qiao is amazing
The business hours of Zuixianju are the same as those of Wangyue Tower, but generally speaking, business at Wangyue Tower is good at noon.
Because Wangyue Tower not only does business for wealthy people, but also for ordinary people. At noon, not only local people in Pingcheng will go to Wangyue Tower to spend money.
People who go to Pingcheng for business will also go to Wangyue Tower for consumption.
Therefore, Wangyue Tower has the best business at noon.
Zuixianju is good at night.
Zuixianju is famous for its wine, and the wealthy people in Pingcheng love to go there to drink at night.
But that has changed recently.
Business at Wangyue Tower is not only booming at noon.
The night also went from ordinary to exciting.
There are only a limited number of wealthy people in Pingcheng, and the transportation in Pingcheng is not very developed, so the daily outsider population is limited. Now that the business in Wangyue Tower is getting better at night, the business in Zuixianju will naturally be worse.
At this time, shopkeeper Zhao was sitting behind the counter. Apart from him and a few waiters, there was no other customer in the lobby on the first floor.
As for the second floor, there were only two guests drinking small drinks.
The magnificently decorated restaurant has never felt so deserted!
Shopkeeper Zhao's face was gloomy, but his heart was as anxious as if it was on fire.
He knows what the problem is.
So he monopolized the entire pig intestines in Pingcheng.
But the local cooks in Pingcheng had never made sausages before. When they first started researching sausages, they wasted a lot of casings just by putting pork in them.
I finally figured out the first step, but when I put the sausage in the pan to fry and cook, the casing broke inexplicably.
After wasting a lot of meat and casings, the sausage finally looked good, but the taste was never as good as Wangyuelou's, and tasted like dumpling fillings.
angry.
As for Qingtuan, it made him mad again and again.
Qingtuan is actually a glutinous rice skin wrapped with fillings. He thought it would be easy to figure out, at least easier than sausages, because although Pingcheng mainly serves pasta, the chef at Zuixianju knows how to use it. Rice and glutinous rice are used to make snacks.
Therefore, when Li Qiao refused to sell him the prescription, he left happily.
But the truth gave him a hard slap. The green dumplings made by the Zuixianju chef were too hard on the outside and not soft enough.
Moreover, before he could thoroughly study this layer of glutinous rice skin, Li Qiao made another green dumpling stuffed with egg yolk and meat floss!
This was the first time he heard the word meat floss. He was very curious and immediately sent a man to Wangyuelou to buy it.
However, he couldn't find any meat floss in the filling.
But Wangyuelou guarantees that the stuffing is mixed with pork, and will pay you 100 if it is fake. So, where is the pork?
Where is the pork stuffed with egg yolk and meat floss? !
The more he thought about it, the more irritated he became. Shopkeeper Zhao was about to get up and go back to the kitchen to supervise the cook, when footsteps came from upstairs.
Immediately afterwards, a pleasant voice sounded: "Shopkeeper, ask your guy to go to Wangyue Tower to buy some skewers so we can have some drinks."
Shopkeeper Zhao: "?"
Several guys in the lobby: "..."
They no longer have the dexterity of the past. They all hunched their necks and lowered their heads, trying to reduce their sense of presence as much as possible, for fear of being caught by Shopkeeper Zhao to vent their anger.
"The shopkeeper?"
On the second floor, Baiyou thought that shopkeeper Zhao didn't hear clearly, so he shouted again.
