I fell through the tunnel and brought my family to live a good life

After seeing off Tang Wenhao and Shen Xiao, Xu Congyi went back to her room to think about how to dress up for tomorrow. She latched the door and entered the space. She bought a golden wig, blue contact lenses and a beard that could be stuck on her face from Taobao, and also bought a set of men's clothes to put on. When she finished dressing up and looked in the mirror, she was very satisfied. This way, even if she stood in front of her family, she would not be recognized. It was enough to make her look real.

The next morning, Xu Cong got on the ox cart to the city early. Today she did not take the ox cart of Brother Da Niu, but the ox cart of another villager who set out earlier. There were quite a few people on the cart, and many of them took their own agricultural and sideline products to sell in the city as soon as possible. Everyone chatted on the way, and time passed quickly. After agreeing on the return time, Xu Cong got off the car and planned to rent an inn first.

Before renting the inn, Xu Congyi found a deserted place and slipped into the space to dress up. She also bought a voice changer and clipped it to her collar, so that she could change her voice into a male voice and make it less likely to be discovered.

Xu Congyi chose an inn that was closest to Tangji Pastry. As soon as he stepped in, a waiter came to greet him warmly. Foreigners were often seen in Qicheng, so the waiter was not surprised to see a foreigner rent an inn.

"Do we have a room on the first floor? I want to store some goods." Xu Congyi also changed his tone of voice to that of a foreigner who can speak Chinese, making it more realistic.

"Yes, yes, but there is only one room left, which is the largest one. It can hold a lot of goods. Can I take you to have a look first?" The waiter greeted warmly.

"OK! Take me to have a look," Xu Congyi mixed in some English words, sounding more like a foreigner who came to do business.

The waiter led Xu Congyi to the backyard and opened the door. Xu Congyi was very satisfied. The room was indeed quite big and could hold a lot of dried chilies. Tang Wenhao was particularly interested in chilies yesterday, so he would probably buy as many as possible.

Because the house was big, the daily rent was fifty cents. Xu Congyi asked the waiter to put a wooden board with the words "selling chili peppers" written on it in advance at the door of the inn, and told the waiter that she would be in the house all day, and if anyone wanted to buy something written on the board, they could just come into the house and find her. Xu Congyi gave him another ten cents as a tip. The waiter thanked Xu Congyi profusely and brought him a pot of tea for free.

After the waiter left, Xu Congyi locked the door from the inside and hurried into the space. She bought 500 kilograms of slightly spicy and fragrant peppers, 200 kilograms of medium spicy and dry fragrant peppers, and 50 kilograms of extra spicy peppers. Extra spicy peppers are used less, and 50 kilograms can be used for a long time. She also bought 50 kilograms of pepper seeds of different varieties. The room was indeed very large. More than 700 kilograms of dried peppers and more than 400 kilograms of pepper seeds were placed on the ground in sacks, and there was still a lot of open space. Xu Congyi also bought 100 kilograms of peppercorns directly from the space. If you want to make cold rabbit, peppercorns are also indispensable, but because you can buy peppercorns in this era, she didn't buy peppercorn seeds.

Xu Congyi sat down, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. She looked around at the room she had worked so hard to clean up, and smiled with satisfaction. She was very glad that the sacks of peppers and seeds were all linen sacks, not modern woven bags. If they were woven bags, she would have to empty each bag and reorganize them, which would be a lot of effort. She initially thought about filling the whole room, but then she thought better of it. Most of these peppers will still be sent to Xu's house. Her house is not that big, and it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. The most important thing is to plant pepper seeds, so that there will be a steady supply of peppers to eat in the future, and she can eat fresh green and red peppers.

After two cups of tea, there was a knock on the door.

"knock knock"

"Foreign guest, are you in the house? Someone is here to buy chili peppers!" It was the waiter knocking on the door.

"Coming, coming," Xu Congyi adjusted himself and opened the door. Sure enough, it was Tang Wenhao who came with a servant to buy chili peppers.

"Hello, Mr. Yang. I passed by the door of the inn and saw a sign selling chili peppers in front of the door, so I went in to ask. The young man at the inn said that you were selling it, so I'm sorry to bother you." Tang Wenhao asked the foreigner in front of him very politely.

"Oh, yes," Xu Congyi deliberately imitated the foreigner's accent, "I sell chili peppers here, come in and take a look, there are so many chili peppers!" Xu Congyi turned aside to let the two of them enter the house.

When Tang Wenhao left yesterday afternoon, he specifically asked Xu Congyi to bring him some dried chilies, otherwise he was afraid that he would not know what chilies looked like and buy the wrong ones. After comparing them, he found that they were indeed the chilies Xu Congyi had mentioned, so he asked the price directly.

"Excuse me, Mr. Yang, what is the price of this pepper?"

"Oh, my chili peppers are 100 coins per pound."

"So cheap!" Tang Wenhao was surprised and a little bit unbelievable. He just reached out and grabbed some, and they were all dried chilies. The Tang family also does seasoning business in other places. Dried ingredients are very light because they have no water, so they are sold by tael. In addition, foreigners sell things very expensively. He once bought some dried herbs from foreigners, who asked him for one tael of silver for a few pieces, so he was mentally prepared to pay five taels of silver for one tael of chilies. He didn't expect it to be so cheap.

Xu Congyi had no intention of making money by selling peppers, so she did not plan to ask for a high price. She just calculated the price based on the price of the seasonings she had prepared when she was preparing the marinade packets. After all, buying things from the space was free, and all the money earned was pure profit.
