A tragic journey through ancient times, trying to make money

This is the 90 wen you paid for. The rest we will divide into four parts, 292 wen each, and there will be 2 wen left. Let's put these two wen aside for now, and we'll take them next time if we have extra. Here, we have 292 wen each, you can keep them all."

"Okay, I'll keep it."

Zhao Xiaoxiao: "I didn't expect that in just five days, I earned 292 coins, which is more than what my mother earned. I will show it to my father and mother later. They will definitely be very happy."

"My sister and I have nearly 600 coins, which is as much as my mother earns in Yueyue's workshop in a month. Yueyue, I like you more, what should I do?" Zhang Xiaohe said with a pout.

"Like it, I allow you, hahahahaha."

"Hahahahaha"

"Hahahahaha"

"I won't talk to you guys for now. I'm going back first. I have a lot of things to do at home."

The other three people all knew that Yueyue's family had been very busy during this period, with business in the town and the workshop.

"Yes, go back soon, we'll bring it to you when we're done embroidering it."

"Yeah, okay," and after saying that, Zhang Yunyue stood up and left Zhang Xiaohua's house.

When Zhang Yunyue returned home, no one was at home. She thought that the workshop must have collected a lot of red peppers yesterday and today, and they had to be processed as soon as possible, otherwise the red peppers would wilt.

So, he didn't rest at home, but went straight to the workshop.

When we arrived at the workshop, Grandma Zhang and Zhang Yunxue were collecting red peppers at the door of the workshop.

"Grandma, Xiaoxue."

"Yueyue, you're back, I thought you were in town!"

"No, I'll leave my father and mother in town for the time being. My grandfather will come back today and should have found someone to help out at the food store. I'll be there for one more day tomorrow and won't be helping out."

Zhang Yunxue also saw Zhang Yunxue, so she ran over and hugged Zhang Yunyue:

"Sister, I missed you yesterday and today."

Zhang Yunyue also hugged Zhang Yunxue with her backhand: "Sister misses you too, okay, you stay here to help grandma, sister will go inside to help."

Zhang Yunxue let go of Zhang Yunyue, who was hugging her, and said, "Don't worry, sis. I've helped grandma all day today, so I know how to do it."

"That's great. How about I come back tomorrow and buy you some candied haws?"

"Okay, okay, thank you, sister! Please come in quickly." After saying that, Zhang Yunxue pushed Zhang Yunyue into the workshop.

Zhang Yunyue walked into the yard. The shady area that had been cleaned earlier was now piled with red peppers because there were not many people at home yesterday and today, and everyone was in town most of the day today.

There were also four people in the noodle pounding room helping to cut red peppers. All the Zhang family members were here, except for Grandma Zhang and Zhang Yunxue at the door. Zhang Yunyue took the last remaining knife and started cutting along with Zhu.

With two people sharing one basin, they started cutting very quickly. Zhang Xingzhong and Zhang Xinglin would pick the red peppers and go to the river to wash them before bringing them back.

After cutting for a while, Zhang Yunyue saw that there were a lot of chopped red peppers on the side, so she began to mix the ingredients, and then put them into cans and sealed them for fermentation.

Yesterday, Lu Tong and Qiao Dacheng from the earthenware workshop delivered goods here together. They delivered dozens of clay pots weighing hundreds of kilograms, which should be enough to last for a few days.

Fortunately, when the workshop was built, the two warehouses were built relatively large, so there is now space to store these pickled peppers.

At 3 p.m., the workers all got off work, and Grandma Zhang and Mrs. Zhu went home first to cook dinner. The Zhang family was busy for another half hour, and when they saw that most of the red peppers piled on the ground were gone, they thought they could finish it early tomorrow morning, so they packed up, closed the door and went home.

Mao hour the next day.

The Zhang family got up early again and picked vegetables in the vegetable garden by lighting oil lamps. Zhang Cheng had also killed the chicken and moved all the things needed in the town onto the ox cart before everyone arrived. They would set off as soon as the helpers arrived.

"Second Aunt, there are new tender cowpeas in the vegetable garden. If you have time today, pick them and soak them. The ones I moved to town yesterday morning won't last for a few days."

"Okay, I got it. I'll take some time today with your grandma to go and have sex with her. You go to town."

"Row."

Another quarter of an hour later, all six helpers arrived. Grandpa Zhang gave the ox cart to Jiang Ren. After everyone else got on the cart, Jiang Ren also sat in the front of the cart and drove it towards the town.

After entering the city gate, Zhang Yunyue sat in the front row and showed Jiang Ren the way to the food store. When they arrived at the food store, Zhang Yunyue first told everyone about the main door of the food store, and then asked Jiang Ren to drive the ox cart to the back door and enter from the back door.

When the ox cart stopped at the back door, Zhang Yunyue jumped off the cart and knocked on the back door: "Bang, bang, bang." The helpers also got off the ox cart.

"Here I come, here I come, who is it?"

"Mother, it's me."

"Yueyue, it's you. Wait, mother will open the door for you soon."

The door to the backyard opened. When Zhang's mother saw the people behind Zhang Yunyue, she knew they were the helpers that Grandpa Zhang had hired.

"You are all here, that's good, that's good. Come in with the cows." After saying that, he opened the backyard door wide and let Jiang Ren lead the ox cart in, and the others followed behind.

The ox cart stopped in the backyard, and several people helped unload all the things on the ox cart into the yard.

Zhang's mother took one of the chickens to the kitchen and slaughtered it. She had seen Zhang Yunyue make spicy chicken yesterday, so she knew the steps. For people who have been working in the kitchen for a long time, usually they can make it themselves just by watching how others do it.

Before Zhang Yunyue and the others arrived, Zhang's mother had already prepared some dishes. The glutinous rice cakes and peppers had also been pounded in advance. Now that the chicken had arrived, they could start cooking directly. Zhang Yunyue watched Zhang's mother make the spicy chicken.

When Zhang's father saw that everything had been unloaded, he began to assign tasks to them.

"Xiao Chao, Jiang Ren, Zhao Wei, Zhang Zhi, follow me to clean up the food store upstairs and downstairs. Zhang Yu and Liu Xiaofeng will follow your aunt to take care of the kitchen."

"Got it, uncle." After they responded, they took rags and water, and two of them were responsible for one floor each and started cleaning.

Zhang Yu and Liu Xiaofeng were instructed by Zhang's mother to wash all the vegetables they brought.

After the vegetables were washed, Zhang's mother took out the braised meat and asked the two to start cutting and putting it on the plates.

By the time the spicy chicken is ready, the work in the kitchen is done and the front shop is cleaned.

Before opening the door of the food store, Zhang's father took Zhang Chao to familiarize himself with the prices of various chili peppers and crispy whistles at the window, preparing to let Zhang Chao sell them later. After all, Zhang Chao was smarter than the others, so it was most appropriate for him to put them at the window.

The remaining three were responsible for waiting tables, while Zhang Yu and Liu Xiaofeng helped Zhang's mother in the kitchen, and one was responsible for washing dishes. When there were many people, they would also help in the kitchen.

After discussing the future work with a few people, Zhang's father opened the door and window of the food store, preparing to open it.
