Shi'an returned to the cave entrance and found that Xu Tianxin had disappeared.
"Thank you, thank you."
Jia Lai sat on the stone and watched Xu Tianxin wash off the foam on his face. Knowing that the soap locust was made by the girl in front of him, he smiled and said:
"Call me Grandpa Lai and you'll be right. Little girl, this soap of yours smells bad to me. If you can make more, can I negotiate a deal with you?"
"Ah?" Xu Tianxin was surprised.
"Why, we roughnecks can't use saponin?"
"No, no, Grandpa Lai, I just think that all the soldiers in the army are tough guys and they should be too lazy to use these. I save others by myself. If I am tired for a day, I will be too lazy to use them and just want to lie down. If you really buy it, I will definitely give it to you. Your lowest price."
Jia Lai was happy. It seemed that some of them should be kept for use, especially those rough generals, so that they could discuss matters in their accounts so as not to smear the generals by being too close.
However, his initial intention was not to negotiate business for the army. He looked at the white soap and its strong fragrance. If it worked, he planned to sell it to a foreign vassal.
People from outside the vassal are not picky, as long as they are useful, what's more, he probably didn't make a mistake.
When the quantity is large, the little girl will definitely not be able to handle it, and she will definitely hire women from the village to help, so that the little girl and the common people can earn two dollars to buy cloth and food to support their families.
Jia Lai found that the little girl in front of him looked really good if she looked closely, with her big eyes shining brightly, but her body was too thin and her clothes were too sloppy. Since ordinary people can do it, it is better than purchasing goods from merchants, who have no shortage of customers. Why not.
For them, it is convenient to transport from Erdao River to other feudal vassals, and they can save a lot of transportation money. Moreover, there are no merchants or dealers to mix in. The cost of supplying goods directly from the little girl is real, and they will earn more.
When the Zhenbei General's Mansion arrived here, everything had to start from scratch. The imperial court did not allocate military pay, so they had to recruit and raise soldiers for thousands of days, and use the mutual market to make more money.
"Will you leave two yuan for me? I'll give you a sure message later."
"Two pieces are not enough, I will give you three pieces for each flavor."
Xu Tianxin thought to himself: How can Grandpa Lai have the final say? Usually there is a process for purchasing public affairs, and only by recommending this and that gift can the final decision be made. It’s always good to save a lot of samples.
Counting the cool ones on her hand, she had a total of five flavors.
To be honest, when I first finished making handmade soap in the county, there was not much saponification reaction at that time, and there was little foaming, but now it is just right.
Jia Lai felt that he was right. This girl had a bad temper towards him: "She has big hands and claws." When others are doing business, they would like to give less and give more, but at this young age, she can think openly and be loose.
Xu Tianxin couldn't help but smile. She was very happy that she would be able to sell a lot of soap before she even had a chance to promote it: "My family's ancestral motto, my grandma always said, be generous when you go out."
"What other ancestral teachings do your family have?"
"Also, make sure you agree in advance and don't be impatient."
Jialai laughed and said, "Girl, the water is boiling. You cook the noodles first."
What Xu Tianxin didn't know was that Jia Laiti bought the soap just in time, and he actually came here for the noodles.
Xu Tianxin got up late. She didn't know that this morning her milk was filled with baked flour noodles and sausages, and she was cooking a pot of instant noodles.
As a result, many soldiers felt that the dry food in their hands no longer tasted good.
I was too embarrassed to look too far, but the villagers used bowls and lids to hold the fragrant noodles, slurping them again and again, and finally drank the hot soup in the pot with a burp.
What was most intolerable for some soldiers was that they had to eat before talking to them. Before they finished eating, some of them came over to ask where they were going to get water, and insisted on helping them get water. Who needs you? When you open your mouth and speak, it smells like sausage.
Isn't that right? Jialai heard a lot of people complaining when he came down from the mountain. Why are you helping the common people? This group doesn't need any help at all and they have better food than them.
Is Jialai the kind of person who spoils children?
He really is.
Jia Lai wondered what the big deal was. He was just a noodle. Our Huo family army had never been short of good soldiers and generals. Province is not such a provincial law. Let the general
On the battlefield, there is one enemy against three soldiers. No matter how much money is spent on training them, if they can win the battle in the end, it will be money spent on the blade.
Wait for him to turn around and ask the people in Erdaohe Village what he did.
If it's not convenient to eat on the march, just make it when you get to the station. Why bother with noodles.
But he didn't find Mrs. Xu. When he came across this little girl, he had a frothy look on her face and he brought her here.
At this time, Xu Tianxin did not cook the noodles, but soaked them in boiling water.
At Jia Lai's signal, she first handed the pancake to others to see, and then invited: "Grandpa Lai, I just happened to bring two pieces. Can you try them together?"
"Try it, isn't it boiled?"
"It's okay to boil it, but I like it a little bit raw when soaked. I think the noodles are a little harder and taste better. If you don't like them, soak them a little longer."
And as Xu Tianxin opened the lid, Jia Lai finally tasted something. After deep-frying, the dough was light and easy to carry, and the hot water was quickly soaked to save time.
"How do you do this?"
Xu Tianxin told Jia Lai exactly how to do it. I specifically reminded her that grandma has skills in making noodles. She added some alkaline noodles and a little salt. The specific proportion of noodles is different for each person. It is like running a restaurant or a noodle shop. The same dish is cooked differently and tastes different.
"How many days can it be stored without deterioration?"
Xu Tianxin told the truth that this was made for traveling. It was the fourth day and the dough was still crispy. Even if it’s a rainy day, it should be fine if you wrap it in oil paper and keep it for six or seven days.
"Grandpa Lai, I have some moisture-proof ones."
"Rice fried?"
Xu Tianxin said no, how could he be willing to waste rice. One is an alkali made by my grandmother from plant ash. The alkali is heated and turned into a liquid, solidified into small crystals and placed in food. However, because there wasn’t much left in what I brought to Fucheng, I could only dry it with the finished tea, wrap it into small bags and put it on the four feet.
It was then that her grandma went to the teahouse and listened to Huo Jiajun's story, and asked for the finished tea leaves so that they wouldn't throw them away. Anyway, no one would take a few sips of tea before brewing it, it’s not dirty.
Jia Lai looked at Xu Tianxin: "I'll try your two methods later. In our army, we fry rice to prevent moisture and dry it. If you use this method, you can save a lot of rice."
Then Jia Lai fell silent, as if concentrating on eating noodles.
As he was eating, he suddenly said: "You girl, why do you just answer whatever I ask you? You have to hide your secrets from now on. Do you know that you can make pickles and sell them for money?"
Xu Tianxin didn't want to hide the method at all.
First, people like Jia Lai can figure it out by looking and trying more. Her instant noodles don’t even have a sauce bag, and the modern packaging bag technology is not very simple. The second reason is that if simple instant noodles can help soldiers solve the problem of freezing weather and patrolling, it would be good to eat hot soup and hot rice.
There are many ways for their family to make money. For example, there is not even Guobaorou here. Their family will have the starting capital to open a restaurant in the future. Her grandma can make enough money to open a chain restaurant in the future by relying on Guobaorou and other exclusive dishes. Why do you have to earn some instant noodles?
However, having said that, although it doesn't matter whether you make money or not, you will only tell Huo Jiajun for free. She is not a fool. If asked by another restaurant or noodle shop, would she tell the truth step by step?
"I'm not telling you this."
Jia Lai looked at Xu Tianxin with a matter-of-fact expression and thought to himself: The more this girl behaves like this, the more he must stop this girl and her grandmother from wasting their time. No matter where you can find it.
Especially when he heard this girl give her an idea: "This is crunchy and has a sound and needs to be boiled. It's troublesome. It's still inconvenient to carry on the front line. I think it's just for eating on short distances, or for patrols, or for generals." If you are late for a meeting, take some time off to avoid having to wait when you are hungry."
Xu Tianxin was a little hesitant in his heart, whether he should talk more or not:
"Grandpa Lai, I heard that the foreign vassals often move horses and herds around. They even move their residences around. The grasslands are huge.
They are short of food, and they are not sure where they will go at the end of the day. It is common for them to eat and sleep in the open. It would be convenient to bring a few dollars with them. What do you think?
I wonder if I can find a way to sell it to them. The storage days are a bit short, and it’s not easy to sell them when transported from here to there. Before I could find the place, the tide returned.
most
They have a shop selling freshly made goods. Isn’t this mutual trading?”
Such people were still installed.
Several major tribes have opened a sales point, selling instant noodles. What's wrong with the serious business there? It's civilians.
You can also hear a lot of gossip coming back secretly.
Xu Tianxin didn't say anything. In case of bad blood, make a large amount of desiccant locally if necessary. Things like strong alkali will explode immediately if sprinkled around the eyes. It can be used as a way to escape.
This time Jia Lai looked at Xu Tianxin with satisfied eyes.
Because Xu Tianxin thought of going together with him, which surprised him.
This little girl became more and more eye-catching the more she talked.
