Chen Xingjie is not going to the county today, so Xu Wenyan brought Xiaoman with him.

There will be a need for handover in the future, right?

Xiaoman can drive a horse-drawn carriage, which makes Xu Wenyan very relieved. The family finally has someone reliable. After they learn simple production and sales, they will start focusing on the potato flour experiment.

Xu Wenyan only hopes to sell ten bowls of the sweet potato noodles he brought today.

With the promotion of free side dishes yesterday, more and more customers came today, and even if they didn’t buy, they would take a look first.

With the small blackboard written by Xu Wenyan, the first thing these people do when they come to the stall is to see what is written on the board.

"It's launched today. The price of vermicelli is 30 cents per serving. On the first day of trying it out, anyone who buys vermicelli will get a free wolf tooth potato. The new wolf tooth potato is 2 cents per serving."

When he went back yesterday, Xu Wenyan found a piece of iron sheet, burned it and polished it into a wavy shape. This wolf tooth potato is very easy to make.

Use this iron sheet to cut the peeled potatoes into wavy slices, then cut the slices into strips, coat them with a thin layer of starch and then fry them. One potato can make three servings of wolf tooth potatoes.

One portion is sold for two cents. Excluding the ingredients, a potato can be worth two cents. As long as you buy a lot, this is a business opportunity for huge profits. It is a product that can be sold at a low profit but in large quantities.

The price of one portion is not expensive, so I don’t feel it’s a big deal even if I just try something new.

"Young man, aren't these potatoes? You're selling such a small amount of potatoes for only two cents. You're making money in a dirty way." A middle-aged man walked over, took a look and said.

"You won't know if I'm a black-hearted person until you eat it. You know how expensive my seasoning is. It contains salt, pepper and other spices. How much money can I make?"

If Xu Wenyan needed to buy star anise and bay leaves himself, he would not make any money, but he had a geographical advantage as he found these few spices by the pond.

Xu Wenyan knew that spices nowadays were sold at sky-high prices in stores, several taels of silver per pound, and were definitely luxury items.

Even though it is not as rich in taste as modern wolf tooth potatoes, it can be said to be a rare delicacy compared to today.

The potato is the greatest invention the world has ever seen.

"Young man, if you can't afford it, wait for me to buy one and give you some to try. There's no need to belittle other people's things." The speaker was the old man who was dressed casually but generously.

The old man quickly bought a bowl of vermicelli, which contained a few peas and three sections of red melon vines. The red melons had been transplanted by Xu Wenyan to the wall of the yard.

Red melon is a climbing plant, and like sweet potato, it only needs a vine to survive. Red melons are widely distributed and easy to survive. By next year, the walls of Xu Wenyan's house will be covered with red melons.

When the translucent vermicelli was served, the old man paused and said, "This vermicelli is actually in this style. This is the first time I've eaten it."

The old man couldn't wait to take a bite. The vermicelli was chewier and smoother than the ramen. It's not that the ramen was not delicious, but the vermicelli was more to the old man's taste.

Unexpectedly, he fell in love with this vermicelli the first time he tasted it. Before he could be surprised, he took a bite of the wolf tooth potatoes. He was also curious why such a portion of fried potatoes was so expensive.

As the potato strips enter the mouth, they are crispy at first, but soft on the inside. With the spicy and fragrant dipping sauce, they are even more unique. The old man's eyes light up and he invites the man who just spoke rudely to try them.

The man was not polite. After he took a bite, he regretted what he had said. This small potato could actually taste so rich.

"Brother, I'll make amends to you. I'll buy two!"

Xu Wenyan smiled and nodded. As long as he could make money, he would curse. Who could go against money?

When everyone saw that the man bought two servings at a time after tasting the food, their curiosity grew. Moreover, one serving was only two cents. Now they couldn't even afford a bun, so they might as well eat a serving of wolf tooth potatoes.

Xu Wenyan didn't expect that he came here to sell noodles but ended up peeling potatoes for the whole day, and during that time he even asked Xiaohu to buy some potatoes for him.

This was how Chen Sanlin lived his life. He would occasionally cook noodles, and Xu Wenyan would peel and cut the noodles into strips. Xiaoman would coat the potatoes with starch and fry them. In the morning, he sold two portions of noodles and vermicelli each, but the wolf tooth potatoes had sold out all the seasoning.

Xu Wenyan had no choice but to change the sign's message of free wolf-tooth potatoes to one of free side dishes.

It was not until the afternoon when Mrs. Wen came over that he began to return to his original intention of selling noodles.

Mrs. Wen still came over in a hurry. Xu Jinhua was much more natural than before. The two siblings still did not recognize each other, and Xu Wenyan felt that it was unnecessary.

"Hey, isn't this our Miss Wen? You come so late today." After getting familiar with Mrs. Wen, Xu Wenyan also started making some jokes.

Mrs. Wen looked anxiously at the stall and said, "Hey, little brother! Do you have any more of those potatoes you're selling today?"

"You came too late. Look, everything is sold out."

"It's all that idiot's fault. He insisted on staying at home with me today." Mrs. Wen pouted.

Xu Wenyan knew that it should be her husband. She didn’t know who married such a beautiful and energetic girl.

"I will definitely save a portion for you tomorrow so you can try the noodles?" As for this greedy girl, Xu Wenyan must give her a sense of anticipation every day. This kind of long-term customer source must be firmly grasped.

"Ok."

Mrs. Wen sat down with a little grievance. Xu Jinhua walked towards Xu Wenyan at this time: "Well, can we go talk aside?"

"Let's just say this, these are all my family members." Xu Wenyan continued to be busy with the work in his hands.

Hearing this, Xu Jinhua felt heartbroken. Xu Wenyan was so well-behaved, obedient and gentle when he was a child, but his personality changed when he grew up.

Xu Jinhua bit her lower lip, took out a purse, and smiled at Xu Wenyan: "This is the money my sister has saved for more than a year, Xiaoyan, take it."

"I don't want this money. I'm no longer a member of the Xu family. Xu Dashan might come back in the future, so you can keep it for him." Xu Wenyan didn't have much feeling for Xu Jinhua.

She wasn't a qualified sister, but she had never bullied Xu Wenyan, so there was nothing special about her.

Xu Jinhua's hand, which was suspended in the air, paused. She knew that it was her parents who drove Xu Wenyan out. She pulled the purse in her hand and put it down.

After a sigh, he asked, "How are Dad and Mom?"

Xu Wenyan looked up at her and said, "You should have the answer in your heart. It's what you think."

Xu Jinhua's eyes were slightly absent-minded, and the corners of her mouth twitched: "Well, I just want to confirm, Xiaoyan, if you have anything, come to me. I am working as a personal maid for Madam Wen in the Wei Mansion.

It was Madam Wen who saved me when I escaped from my marriage. I owe her a lot and I probably won’t go back. If you have any trouble, come and find me.

Sister will definitely help you if I can solve it."

Xu Wenyan knew that she felt guilty. After all, he was the one who helped her get married. Xu Wenyan nodded: "Well, if you have any news about Brother Dashan in the future, please let me know."

It was Xu Dashan who reminded Xu Wenyan about the war. After all, the brother and sister are not bad people at heart. I owe them a favor, so I will repay it if I can.

This kind of thing is the most troublesome.

Mrs. Wen found the sweet potato noodles novel and delicious, but she preferred ramen and said it was okay to have a bowl of it occasionally.

This sweet potato flour is mainly used to make hot and sour noodles, but with the current price of commodities, the price of vinegar remains high. Xu Wenyan has no intention of making hot and sour noodles. He will talk about it later.

I will continue my research after potato flour is mass-produced.
