Nuan Nuan also successfully folded 20 paper boxes and exchanged them for a bunch of candied haws from Li Xia.

The fruits of labor are exceptionally sweet.

Lin Xiaomei looked speechlessly at Chu Yang who was eating candied haws with gusto.

"Don’t you like sweets?

Chu Yang:"Hey, I've never eaten it before, but I didn't expect it to be quite delicious.""

Lin Xiaomei rolled her eyes.

The origami boxes were exchanged for candied haws. It was just a talk. Today we will fold out 500 paper boxes, and we will start selling French fries tomorrow.

After eating the candied haws, several people worked together to make origami. Box.

At half past six, 500 pieces of kraft paper were folded, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Duoduo:"Dad~! Can I still eat a bunch of candied haws?~?-"

Nuannuan:"Daddy~! Is that okay?-~?"

The two naughty dumplings started the coquettish tactic. This method worked for Li Xia, but not for Chu Mengxi.

Chu Mengxi said in a cold tone from the side:"There must be none today. Isn't it enough to sneak in so many snacks and add a bunch of candied haws?"

"whee~!"

"Ha ha~!"

In fact, two milk dumplings are just talk. If you can eat another bunch of candied haws, it will make a lot of money.

The two milk dumplings had no candied haws to eat, and Lin Xiaomei and Chu Yang naturally had none too, lest the two little guys become unbalanced and jealous.

Li Xia wrapped the candied haws in brown paper and placed it in a cool place to prevent it from becoming sugary.

There are still more than two kilograms of plums and hawthorns. Li Xia is thinking about whether to make preserved fruits and hawthorn cakes tomorrow.

The weather is hot now and fresh fruits cannot be kept for a few days.

The task of closing the door was handed over to Chu Yang and Lin Xiaomei. Li Xia took out the donkey cart and carried his wife and milk dumplings back to Shangrong Village.

As soon as they returned to the village, the two girls entered the courtyard and went to find their beloved tricycle.

"Dad~! Mom~! My sister and I went for a ride~! not bad~?"

"Go, only in the village, don't go too far. Also, don't catch snakes"

"Know it~!"

The two naughty boys quickly climbed onto the tricycle and rode away in a hurry.

But after a while, the two little guys came back in a hurry.

Nuan Nuan hummed and climbed down, picked up the little puppy, and climbed into the car humming again.

It turns out that I forgot about the little puppy"Yuanyuan"

"Wang~!"

With a cheer, the two of them and the dog set off again!

Li Xia and Chu Mengxi looked at each other and smiled.

Just as he was about to enter, Old Zhaotou and his wife came over carrying a vegetable basket.

"Xiao Li, today’s vegetables are here. Let’s help you put them in the yard."

"Thanks, Uncle Zhao."Li Xia smiled and nodded.

When Old Zhao came out, Li Xia said:"Uncle Zhao, from now on we need to add 100 kilograms more potatoes every day, bigger ones."

Old Zhaotou and his wife were stunned for a moment, and then their faces showed excitement.

"Is it 100 pounds of potatoes?"

"What? Buns with potato filling?"

Li Xia smiled and didn't answer. He just asked Old Zhaotou to do as he asked. Of course, Old Zhaotou happily agreed. His family's farmland is fifteen acres, and the most grown potatoes and sweet potatoes are potatoes.

This is another big deal. Business.

In rural areas these days, sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn are the staple foods. Carrots, cabbage, and potatoes are the most common dishes on rural people’s tables.

"Otherwise, I would have hundreds of kilograms of potatoes at home today. I would pick out some big ones and bring them over.

Li Xia nodded:"I want it.""

"Okay, let's get it now."

Old Zhaotou and his wife immediately ran home with the vegetable basket.

Li Xia and Chu Mengxi were finally able to enter, but at this time, someone stopped them.

A walking tractor drove in from the dirt road outside the village. They arrived at the village.

Sitting on the tractor were Jiang Shunwang and his wife. When the two saw Li Xia and Chu Mengxi at the door of their home, they immediately shouted excitedly. The old man driving the tractor was from the neighboring Mixi village and was somewhat related to Jiang Shunwang. They met in the county town. , I took the couple back by the way.

"Thanks, Lao Huang, I’ll come over to my house for a drink some other time."

"OK."

The walking tractor suddenly drove away again.

"Uncle Jiang and Aunt Wang, how is your family's cultural exchange going? Wang

Guifen replied with a grateful look:

"Thanks to you two, thank you! The child is fine. He stayed in the hospital for two days and his health has recovered."

"I told my child that I can work in your bun shop and the salary is very high. I was very happy to hear this. I believe that I can study and eat with peace of mind in the future."

"Just be fine."Li Xia and Chu Mengxi nodded.

"Don’t you want to spend two days in the provincial capital?"Li Xia said with a smile. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Hey, what's the fun? It costs a lot of money to go out to restaurants."Jiang Shunwang waved his hand. The consumption in the provincial capital is high. They just walked around the department store and were shocked by the prices inside. They didn't even dare to go to the state-owned restaurants. It is estimated that the cheapest meal would cost Spending five or six yuan, how can you afford it?

"Xiao Li, can I go to work at your bun shop tomorrow?"Wang Guifen asked expectantly. He only got two yuan for a day's work. This is why Wang Guifen didn't want to stay in the provincial capital for too long and rushed back in a hurry.

"Can."Li Xia nodded. With Wang Guifen joining, he and his wife could feel much more relaxed.

After a while,

Old Zhaotou came over carrying 100 kilograms of potatoes. When he saw Jiang Shunwang and his wife coming back, he immediately asked with concern:

"Lao Jiang and his wife, how is your son?"

"Okay, it's okay, thanks to your family's help."Wang Guifen said gratefully. She pointed out that the old Zhaotou family lent them the money without hesitation. They are good and warm-hearted people.

"Hey, how much money do we have together? The main thing is not the 60 yuan from Li Xia's family. With so much money, every household in the village can't even make it together."

"yes! yes!"Jiang Shunwang and his wife looked at Li Xia and Chu Mengxi gratefully again.

"Xiao Li, let me put the potatoes in the yard for you."Old Zhaotou turned sideways and walked into the courtyard gate while carrying a pole.

"I'll pick up the vegetable basket tomorrow. Li

Xia thanked him, and then said:"Uncle Zhao, I will give you 13 cents per catty for potatoes. Do you like it?""

"Eh! More, just a dime will do!"Old Zhaotou waved his hand.

Potatoes sold in bulk in the market cost 13 cents per catty. If you buy hundreds of jins at a time, they are two cents cheaper, 10 cents per catty.

"It's only 13 cents, so just listen to me. The potatoes you picked are all big potatoes, and they're worth the price."

My fellow villagers, Li Xia will not let Old Zhaotou suffer. What's more, every time Old Zhaotou and his wife send food, they will come with many other dishes. Accumulated every day, it is worth a lot of money. The potatoes and the ones just delivered The other dishes totaled twenty-one and thirty cents. Chu Mengxi counted the money and handed it over.

Old Zhaotou happily took it.

Jiang Shunwang asked doubtfully:"Why do you need so many potatoes?"

I've never heard of potato-filled steamed buns. Potatoes don't taste good as fillings.

Moreover, potatoes are a common food on every household's table. It's impossible for a steamed bun shop to make potatoes and sell them, right?

Lao Zhaotou had it before He was confused, and now looked at Li Xia.

Li Xia smiled and explained:"Potatoes are used to make French fries, and they will be officially sold in the bun shop tomorrow."

French fries?!

Old Zhaotou and Jiang Shunwang were confused. What are fries?

Chu Mengxi explained:"French fries are just cutting potatoes into strips and then frying them in soybean oil until they are crispy. Into French fries."

After saying this, Lao Zhaotou and Jiang Shunwang suddenly understood.

However, can these fried potato chips be delicious?

Moreover, it will cost a lot of oil!

Lao Zhaotou shook his head, expressing his confusion, thinking about that thing Can the son be sold?

Old Zhaotou was too lazy to think about it. He said to Wang Guifen:

"Lao Jiang’s wife, you are in a great position now. You go to Li Xia’s bun shop to earn a high salary. The wages of the employees in the factory are not even as high as yours."

Old Zhaotou said with a smile. It is impossible for a rural woman who earns 60 yuan a month not to feel sad. However

, Jiang Shunwang's family is a poor household in Shangrong Village, and Old Zhaotou, the captain of the production team, You can't compete with them for this job.

Besides, although Wang Guifen is a gossip, she is kind-hearted and has taken care of Li Xia's two milk babies.

I believe this is the reason why Li Xia paid Wang Guifen such a high salary.

Wang Guifen also felt that sixty yuan a month was a bit high. After all, she knew nothing but doing groceries and farming. She had no skills at all.

"oops! really! Xiao Li, Miss Chu, is the salary you give us too high? How about thirty yuan a month, so that I can earn more with peace of mind."

Chu Mengxi explained:"Aunt Wang, don't think it's easy to earn this salary. There is still a lot of work at the bun shop, and it's not as easy as working in the fields.

Li Xia said:"When the Baozi shop is busy, those who don't touch the ground earn hard-earned money.""

Wang Guifen didn't quite believe it after hearing this.

In a place as big as Baozi Shop, no matter how busy you are, how tired can you be?

Can it be as tiring as planting crops in the ground?

…mouth….
