The next day.

Cheng Yue took Chen Lin to the town again, this time to prepare all the equipment needed to set up a stall.

The noodle bed is already ready, and it's time to set up a stall as soon as possible. If you're not proactive in making money, there's something wrong with your brain.

When she arrived in town, Cheng Yue went to the dock to find Uncle Chen San first. She bought the goods today and could set up a stall tomorrow, but she had to pay the stall fee first.

Cheng Yue came over and said hello to the lady selling wontons before going to the wooden house by the dock.

Just hearing the name, Cheng Yue thought that Mr. Chen San was a big man with a beard, but she was stunned when she saw him in person.

Mr. Chen San looked to be in his twenties, tall and slender, with red lips and white teeth, a typical scholar.

It's just that his temperament is a bit sharp and his eyes are unfathomable.

Cheng Yue concealed her surprise and walked forward and just said that she was there to pay the stall fee.

Mr. Chen San nodded lightly and casually asked what he did.

Cheng Yue answered truthfully, and Mr. Chen San didn't ask any more questions and took Cheng Yue to choose a seat.

It just so happened that one of the families wasn’t coming, and the stove was already built, so Cheng Yue fell in love with it at first sight.

Mr. Chen San took the money and said that if anyone wanted to cause trouble, they could just look for him.

Cheng Yue bowed, thanked him and left.

After leaving the dock, Chen Lin stroked his chest and whispered, "Mom, this Third Master Chen feels so scary."

Cheng Yue patted Chen Lin on the shoulder and said with a faint smile: "Indeed, but we are just doing business honestly. What happens to him has nothing to do with us."

Chen Lin nodded without saying anything. This Mr. Chen San was obviously quite handsome, so why did he look so scary when he smiled?

Cheng Yue went to the blacksmith shop first. The noodles had to be cooked freshly, so she needed a big iron pot.

But when she heard the price, Cheng Yue was secretly shocked. A big iron pot actually cost one or two taels of silver. Although the size of the iron pot she needed was indeed a bit large, it was really too expensive.

Cheng Yue thought about it and decided to use the iron pot at home first. At most she would have to move it back and forth, which was a little inconvenient, but it was still more cost-effective than making a new pot.

After leaving the blacksmith shop, Cheng Yue went to the carpenter's shop. She also needed a cart, benches, tables and other things.

Although Chen An can do it, the quantity required is a bit too much. It is naturally difficult to do it due to his leg problem, so he can only come to the carpenter shop to buy it.

There are two types of carts: one-wheeled and two-wheeled. Cheng Yue naturally chose the two-wheeled cart. It takes a lot of balance to push a one-wheeled cart, so she can't use it.

A two-wheeled cart is a little more expensive than a unicycle, but Cheng Yue thought that she could use it when she bought a cow in the future, so she still had to have dreams.

Then I bought a taller long table to store seasonings, bowls and chopsticks.

I also bought four small square tables and more than twenty small stools. They are of mortise and tenon structure and can be folded, making them very convenient to use.

Because she bought a lot of things, the boss also gave her two large wooden basins. Cheng Yue thanked him and the wooden basins came in handy.

When Cheng Yue was about to pay, she glanced and saw the wooden bowl in the corner. Her eyes lit up immediately. Wooden bowls are great because they are not afraid of falling.

After asking the boss, he said two bowls cost one penny, so Cheng Yue ended up buying thirty more wooden bowls.

Cheng Yue paid the money, and the boss helped to tie up the tables and benches, and stuffed a pile of bowls and chopsticks into the basin and tied them all to the cart, filling the entire cart.

Chen Lin took a deep breath. He thought he would spend so much money but end up making no money. Thinking of this, Chen Lin said “Pooh, pooh, pooh” three times.

My mother’s cooking is so delicious, it’s impossible not to make money, it will definitely sell well!

Cheng Yue pushed the cart and Chen Lin supported her, and they went to the other side of the town. Wu's pork stall was on the street over there.

The Wu family all came from hunter families, so they learned the skills of slaughtering pigs and sheep from a young age.

Although it is not nice for a woman to work as a butcher and sell pork, at least she can support her family.

Moreover, Mr. Wu is a straightforward person with a good personality, so he has many repeat customers.

Father Cheng and Mrs. Wu were busy at the meat stall. When they saw Cheng Yue and Chen Lin coming over, pushing a cart, their eyes widened.

"Girl, what did you buy to set up your stall? Why did you get out of the car so big?"

Cheng Yue knew that her father was worried about the money, so she replied, "Yes, I run a noodle stall, I can't let customers eat while standing."

Besides, these are not disposable items and can be used in the future.

Father Cheng nodded, and Mrs. Wu didn't say anything. She turned around and took out the large bones, pork and pig blood that had been reserved in advance and handed them to Cheng Yue.

He then handed over a pair of cleaned pig offal, "Take all of this. Your father has cleaned it all. You can go back and stir-fry it to make a nice dish of meat."

Cheng Yue's eyes lit up when she took it in her hand. Who said that ancient people didn't eat offal? The large intestine was cleaner than hers.

"Mom, keep all these waste water for me in the future. I will need them."

Pig offal is cheap and tastes better than meat when cooked. It can be used to make braised pork offal, which is more cost-effective than meat.

She hadn't thought of using pig offal before because she was afraid of the trouble.

Now that her parents can handle it, it's easy. She will give them a few more cents as payment for their help.

Father Cheng and Mrs. Wu didn't know what Cheng Yue wanted so much pig offal for, but they didn't ask much. Since the child wanted it, they just gave it to her.

"Okay, I'll keep them all for you, but this cart of stuff is a hassle, and you have to haul it back every day."

It is difficult for two people to turn around in this shop, so naturally there is no room for a truckload of tables and benches.

Cheng Yue didn't care about this. It wasn't very far anyway, and it wasn't difficult for her to ride a two-wheeled vehicle. They just had to get up early and set off.

Cheng Yue was in a hurry to go home, so she didn't stay long. She threw down a string of copper coins and left with Chen Lin.

Father Cheng and Mrs. Wu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "This kid didn't say he didn't want her money, but he ran away so quickly."

Cheng Yue took Chen Lin directly home without buying anything else.

She had the seasonings, and she didn't need to buy sweet potato noodles. She had nearly 20 kilograms of it at home, and with the one Zhao Xiangxiu and her mother sent back, there were about 30 kilograms, enough to make nearly 90 bowls of noodles.

On the first day, she didn't plan to do too much. She had to see the situation first.

The mother and son were pushing a cart of things. As soon as they entered the village, the villagers who saw them were all stunned. What was Chen An's wife doing?

Some villagers couldn't help but come up and ask, and Cheng Yue said that he wanted to do business. The villagers were even more stunned when they heard that, but they didn't ask any more questions because they saw Cheng Yue pushing the cart.

As soon as Cheng Yue left, they started discussing. Things were different after the division of the family. Even Chen An's wife, who had always been soft-hearted, dared to do business.

Thinking of Chen An's leg, they all hoped that Cheng Yue's business could be successful, otherwise how would they live?

The road home was uphill. Chen Lin was pulling the cart in front and Cheng Yue was pushing the cart at the back. It was very strenuous and they were all sweating when they got home.

Cheng Yue is more motivated, and his next goal is to buy an ox cart!

It was not yet noon when they got home, and the sisters Chen Tong and Chen Ning were mixing wheat bran with wild vegetables to feed the chickens and pigs.

Chen An sat in the yard, his hands not idle. He tied up the tools such as hoe and sickle in the house with ropes again.

Seeing Cheng Yue and Chen Lin coming back with a cart full of things, they hurriedly asked them to sit down and rest. The two sisters went into the kitchen and made two bowls of sugar water.
