Chapter 24 Chapter 24, Selling Meat Sauce

  Li Yu and the others went to a fork in front of an inn. After standing for a while, they saw a large group of carriages and mule carts, pulling heavy goods and walking over.

  Li Yu saw that Li Mei and Liu Changmin didn't know how to sell, and stood there stupidly watching the teams pass by.

  Li Yu had to pick up a jar of meat sauce from the back basket and shouted along the road, "Selling meat sauce! Spicy and delicious meat sauce, with steamed buns and pancakes, delicious and delicious..."

   A man heard Li Yu's shout, glanced at the flatbread in his hand, and felt that it was really hard to swallow, "Girl, bring it to me to see what kind of meat sauce you sell."

  Li Yu walked up to the man and unplugged the cork of the jar. A spicy smell came to his nostrils, and the man swallowed, "It smells quite fragrant, but I don't know how it tastes."

  Li Yu handed the jar to the man, "Uncle, if you have some cakes, you can scoop some to taste."

"Okay, let's talk about it after tasting it." The man took a spoon, scooped out a spoon and spread it on the cake, took two bites of the cake and chewed it a few times, eating peanuts, sesame seeds and meat, "Yeah! Not bad, It's delicious, girl, how do you sell this meat sauce?"

   "This jar is about a pound. It is made with game, peanuts and sesame seeds. It originally sold for 35 cents a can. You are the first customer, and I will give you 33 cents."

  The man hesitated. Looking at the jar Li Yu was holding, he felt that the taste was really good, and it was a good meal. He bargained and said, "Little girl, it's still a bit expensive! If it's less, I'll buy two jars."

   "Thirty wen, can't be any less. Look, they are all fried in vegetarian food. You don't have to worry about going bad when you eat them on the road."

The    man nodded and said, "Okay, bring me two cans."

  Li Yu hurriedly took out two cans from the back basket and handed them to him. The three people sitting on the rafters of the car in front asked the man and turned to look at the man, "Lao Xu, how does it taste?"

   The pancake in Old Xu Yangyang's hand, "It's fragrant and spicy, and it's really delicious."

   After hearing this, the three of them waved at Li Yu, "Little girl, bring it to us and taste it."

   "Okay!" After Li Yu gave the meat sauce to the three of them to taste, the three of them bought two more jars each. Li Yu carried the pickle on his back and continued to walk forward.

After eating the pancakes, Lao Xu went to the inn with a jar of meat sauce. He walked over to a middle-aged man and handed the meat sauce in his hand to him with a smile, "Mr. Wei, try what I just bought. The meat sauce, fragrant and spicy, tastes good.”

"Then thank you, Lao Xu." Steward Wei took the meat sauce with a smile, pulled the cork, scooped a spoonful into the noodle bowl, tasted two bites, nodded and smiled, "Well, it tastes good and quite appetizing. of."

   Lao Xu looked at him and smiled happily, "I think you like it."

  Li Yu turned around. Several people asked him and they thought it was too expensive. Li Yu was a little disappointed and felt that these hot sauces were not as easy to sell as he thought.

   After thinking about it, I comforted myself, everything is difficult at the beginning! Besides, it's a little expensive for just one variety. I'll go back and make cowpeas and kohlrabi in two days.

  Li Mei and Liu Changmin learned that Li Yu sold eight cans of pickles in a while, and they looked at Li Yu with a smile, "Fish, it's really good, and it took a while to sell eight cans."

   "Well, several people thought it was a bit expensive and didn't buy it, but it's fine. Let's go back and make cowpea and kohlrabi, and come back when the varieties are complete."

   "Alright, just this one is not easy to sell." Li Mei asked Li Yu to get on the ox cart and Liu Changmin drove the ox cart back, when suddenly someone shouted from behind, "Selling meat sauce, wait..."

  Li Yu looked back and quickly stopped Liu Changmin, "Uncle wait a minute, it's the uncle who bought the meat sauce just now."

  Liu Changmin stopped the car, Li Yu got out of the car and waited for Lao Xu to come, and asked, "Uncle, is there anything else?"

   Lao Xu gasped and took a deep breath, "Our steward Wei wants to buy your meat sauce, how much do you have?"

   "There are still seven cans left, and there are more than sixty cans at home. If you want it, it's not far. It'll be there in less than a quarter of an hour."

   "Wait, I'll go back and ask." Lao Xu turned and walked towards a carriage behind him. After a while, the carriage turned around and walked towards Li Yu and the others.

When the carriage arrived next to Li Yu and the others, a man stuck his head out of the car, glanced at the ox cart and the cart full of things that Liu Changmin was leading, and smiled at Li Mei: "Sister-in-law, my carriage runs fast, you all sit in me. The car will take me to your house to get it."

   Li Mei responded cheerfully: "Okay! We are right in front of Xishan Village."

  Li Yu didn't expect the big client to come so soon, and got into the man's carriage with Li Mei excitedly.

   The man was satisfied when he saw that the aunts and nephews were dressed neatly, "We're under Wei Wencheng, the steward of the Wei family caravan. Is my sister-in-law from the neighborhood?"

Li Mei smiled politely and bowed, "Mr. Wei, the little lady's husband's family name is Liu's maiden name Li, we live in Xishan Village, this is my niece Xiaoyu, these sauces are made by my niece and our family loves to eat them. ."

  Wei Wencheng said frankly: "Sister Li, your pickles taste good, but we are far away. I don't know if your pickles can be stored. If they are stored for a long time, they will come again later."

   Li Yu felt confident after listening to it. He blew up all the water and put white wine to preserve it. This big client should be able to keep it.

  Li Yu said to Wei Wencheng: "Mr. Wei, all the pickles in my house are made with vegetable oil. You should have no problem storing them for about a month. Also, try not to use tableware that has been soaked in water when taking it."

  Wei Wencheng smiled after listening to Li Yu's explanation: "Okay, it really lasts for so long and we will come next time."

   After a while, he arrived at Li's house. Li Yu jumped out of the car and slammed the door on the door. He said to Zhao Di, "Cousin, come here with two bales of grass and I want to pack pickles."

  Zhao Di nodded and walked towards the firewood room. After a while, she came out with a bale of hay and handed it to Li Yu. Li Yu vacated the bamboo basket and put a thick layer of hay in it, and began to put sauce cans.

   Li Mei said to Wei Wencheng, "Mr. Wei, please come in and wait a moment."

Wei Wencheng nodded and followed Li Mei into the yard. He saw that the yard was quite big, and the yard was clean and tidy. There were also several rows of bamboo racks in the yard. There are shredded vegetables.

  Wei Wencheng said in his heart: This family loves cleanliness. If those pickles can really be stored, they can still cooperate.

  Li Yu packed the sauce jar, Liu Changmin also arrived, and quickly helped to move the basket outside together, Wei Wencheng nodded with satisfaction when he saw that the basket was covered with a thick layer of hay.

  Li Yu pointed to the pickle jar in the basket and said, "Steward Wei, look at there are just seventy jars left."

After inspecting it, Director Wei nodded and smiled: "Yes, move it to the car!" He took out a few pieces of silver from the wallet and handed it to Li Yu, "Seventy cans, just two taels of silver, right? "

   "That's right," Li Yu took the money, and after loading the basket with Liu Changmin into the car, he said to Wei Wencheng, "Mr. Wei, there will be other flavors of pickles in my house. After you eat it, you will feel good to welcome you again."

   "Okay, goodbye." Wei Wencheng got on the carriage and walked towards the Sancha Road.

  Zhao Di looked at Li Yu happily, "Cousin, did you really sell a can of 30 cents? Are they all sold out?"

   "Well, it's sold out, and you have no one to sell vegetables at home today?"

  Zhao Di nodded with a smile on his face, "Yes, it's almost a stone for each."

  Li Yu took a look at the cowpeas and kohlrabi on the bamboo plaque. The water had been dried, "Zhao Di, these can be put in."
