Of course it's for peace.
Zuixianju's business is so bad that it's deserted during the evening rush hour. If it continues like this, it may be close to bankruptcy.
Therefore, shopkeeper Zhao brought the gift and came to Li Qiao to discuss with a smile.
This time, he didn't mind that the bench at Li Qiao's house was low, nor did he mind that the sour plum soup he was served was dirty, and he didn't even open his mouth to buy money.
He hoped to be like Shopkeeper Wang, buying green dumplings from Li Qiao and sausages from Butcher Zheng.
As long as Li Qiao agrees, he is willing to bear the liquidated damages of five hundred taels and is willing to give Li Qiao a profit.
Green dumplings, buckwheat stuffed with red bean paste were sold to Shopkeeper Wang for eighteen cents a piece, and those stuffed with egg yolk and meat floss were sold for forty cents each, and he was willing to buy these two fillings for twenty-five cents and sixty cents. Youth League.
Butcher Zheng sold sausages to Shopkeeper Wang for eighteen cents a piece, and he was willing to buy them for thirty cents a piece.
Li Qiao was not moved at all when he heard these prices.
His reputation for taking vows seriously cannot be bought with this amount of money.
Seeing this, shopkeeper Zhao gritted his teeth and raised the price again. He was willing to buy green dumplings stuffed with bean paste, green dumplings stuffed with egg yolk and meat floss, and sausages at prices of thirty-five cents, eighty-eight cents, and thirty-five cents.
This price is the selling price of Wangyue Tower. If he buys it at this price, it is equivalent to paying a discount.
Li Qiao remained unmoved, the reason being that a gentleman's promise is worth more than a thousand pieces of gold.
Shopkeeper Zhao was helpless. The fire in his heart was enough to burn the river in Sanliu Village dry, but he was polite on his face.
Forget it, he will think of another solution after he goes back.
Headache.
After sending Shopkeeper Zhao away, Li Dashan was not as blinded by the price given by Shopkeeper Zhao as last time, but he still felt a little regretful.
"Uncle, when you were selling Feng Gao, you should have gone to Zuixianju to ask and compare the prices."
"Zui Xianju doesn't like Feng Gao. Besides, can't you see that Shopkeeper Zhao actually dislikes me and this courtyard?"
Li Qiao asked him.
"...Is there any?" Li Dashan scratched his head in confusion. He really didn't pay attention.
"You have a lot to learn." Li Qiao was helpless.
"I will definitely study hard in the future!" Li Dashan felt guilty.
However, he soon laughed again: "Uncle, he dislikes you but has to come to you, this shows that you are great!"
"No, Li Qiao is the most powerful." Tao Zhu nodded in agreement. He looked at Li Qiao and the corners of his mouth could not help but turn up.
This is his man!
Moreover, he was worried that shopkeeper Zhao would retaliate before, but now he is not worried anymore.
Li Qiao saw Tao Zhu's loving expression in his eyes, and he smiled and said: "Da Shan, go to Zheng's house and tell me that putting corn kernels into meat stuffing and making corn sausage is also delicious. "
"Go quickly, so your Uncle Zhu can have corn sausage at noon."
He explained in detail how to make corn sausage.
If you want to make the corn flavor of the grilled sausage stronger, you can't just add corn kernels, but also add corn juice.
"……good!"
Li Dashan flew away.
Tao Zhu, on the other hand, said duplicity: "Why bother?"
"You like to eat, and besides, it's the Zheng family that's in trouble, not us." Li Qiao replied with a smile.
"Our money is spent on food and drink."
Tao Zhu continued to talk duplicity, but his watery eyes were slightly bent.
They also settled accounts with the Zheng family. If they wanted to eat sausages and pork meatballs, they had to pay for them.
"The purpose of making money is not just to eat and drink well, but we don't waste it."
"You are always right." Tao Zhu could no longer hold back the smile on his face.
"I'm good-looking, so I'm justified." Li Qiao naturally laughed.
"Shameless, Chuntao is still watching." Tao Zhu pointed at Li Chuntao beside him.
"So what if I look at it? Am I not good-looking?" Li Qiao asked, staring at Tao Zhu.
"...It looks good." Tao Zhu was quite honest about this question.
Moreover, this person looks better and better the more he looks at him.
The good-looking thing is that just by looking at him, he can't help but smile.
Li Chuntao: "..."
She should be under the cart of these two people, not in the yard.
At noon that day, Li Qiao’s family’s meal was all corn.
Li Dazhu sent fifty sticks of corn in a while, and the Zheng family sent ten sticks of corn sausage at almost noon.
So, at noon, we cooked corn on the cob, stewed pork ribs with winter melon and corn, corn pancakes, and grilled corn sausage.
Tao Zhu was extremely satisfied with his meal. When lunch was over, he took Li Qiao back to his room to rest.
Of course, there is no real rest.
However, since it was daytime, the two of them didn't do anything. They just lay on the bed and hugged each other and kissed.
Compared with the happiness at night, Tao Zhu sometimes prefers the happiness of kissing during the day, because this person always puts in effort to toss him at night, which is refreshing, but also very tiring.
But the kisses during the day were different. This person was always very gentle, holding him gently, blending with his breath. Kisses fell on his lips, forehead, and cheeks one after another, letting him know that he was loved. On.
He likes it.
On the other hand, the Zheng family also liked the taste of corn sausage, so they made more.
The next day, the corn sausage was well received by the diners at Wangyuelou. I didn’t expect that there is such a way to eat it, it’s delicious.
Shopkeeper Zhao was very angry. His cook hadn't figured out how to make ordinary sausages yet, so Li Qiao came up with a new twist.
Damn it, why does the sausage stuffing made by his chef look like dumpling stuffing!
The corn sausage was very popular, and the Zheng family was very happy.
But the Zheng family only planted two acres of corn.
The Zheng family also had a lot of fields, but they felt that breaking corn cobs was too tiring, so they only planted two acres for their own consumption.
Nowadays, making grilled sausages requires a lot of corn, so the Zheng family, just like Li Qiao, approached Zhang Xiuhua.
His family wanted to buy Zhang Xiuhua’s corn.
Zhang Xiuhua's family was naturally very happy. Breaking corn cobs was tiring. It was really tiring. Corn leaves were sharp and it was itchy and painful when cut on the skin. When breaking corn cobs, they had to cover their heads and faces with cloth.
But the corn stalks are very tall, and even though it’s autumn when we break the corn cobs, the weather is still hot, so when we stay in the cornfield to break the corn, it’s hot, stuffy, and tiring. Who knows the uncomfortable feeling of breaking the corn?
Moreover, this is just the beginning. After breaking the corn cobs back, you have to peel off the corn buds one by one. After peeling, they are dried and then threshed.
All in all, the whole process was tiring.
Her own men cannot do this job, and she is the main force in this job every year. As her son grows up in the past few years, she has become more relaxed, but in the end it is still very tiring.
Now the Zheng family's intervention has saved her family countless efforts and made a lot of extra money. She is really grateful to Li Qiao.
For this reason, before dawn this morning, before work started at the construction site, she specially loaded two sacks of corn cobs on a pallet truck, which she had to give to Li Qiao.
Li Qiao didn't accept it, but Tao Zhu liked it and he was willing to spend money to buy it.
The fight between the two parties was noticed by the villagers who came to sell dry firewood, and soon the news spread throughout Sanliu Village.
Other villagers who heard the news were a little stunned. Why, now Li Qiao can not only digest their eggs, vegetables, wheat, dry firewood and other things, but also corn?
Awesome, this is really awesome.
After sighing, the villagers were delighted.
Not only the Zhang Xiuhua family planted corn, but they all also planted corn. The Zheng family's sausage business is long-term. If the Zhang Xiuhua family's corn is used up, then maybe it will be their turn!
It saves effort and makes money, who wouldn’t be interested?

This National Day update is really bad QAQ
Thanks to Baozi, who is still following the update, for spreading flowers and giving small red envelopes in this chapter!
Chapter 55: Corn Business: Cheng Liqiao’s Love
The corn from Zhang Xiuhua's family was ordered by the Zheng family, which made many villagers jealous.
So, someone took advantage of going to Li Qiao's house to sell things and asked Li Qiao if he could develop more ways to eat corn, so that everyone could sell some of his corn.
Corn is a coarse grain and has a relatively high yield compared to wheat. Every household in the countryside grows it. If you plant too much, it will naturally become less valuable. You can only sell it for three cents per pound.
The villagers grow corn for their own consumption. If they want to sell it, they cannot sell it because the urban residents in the county who do not grow corn have limited corn consumption throughout the year.
As for transporting it out of Pingcheng, there is no chance at all. The entire prefecture where Pingcheng is located grows corn.
Therefore, coarse grains such as corn have always been grown by villagers for their own consumption. If they want to sell them, there is no way.
But now Li Qiao has found a market for Zhang Xiuhua's corn, which makes people not excited.
They also want to sell their corn!
Li Qiao saw the villagers' desire to sell corn, and it was beneficial to him anyway, so he really started to think about it.
When it comes to eating corn, the first thing Li Qiao thinks of is popcorn.
It's a pity that there is no old-fashioned hand-cranked popcorn machine here. That kind of popcorn machine does not select corn, and can also make popcorn from ordinary corn.
Moreover, it can not only pop corn, but also pop rice.
