In terms of taste alone, this cake is no worse than the snacks sold in the county town.
Qian Fengping couldn't help but feel excited, but then she became a little worried: "But in this situation, can we sell it?"
This is just like planning to sell milk before, but now there is a famine.
Fang Tong was also hesitant: "If I want to sell it, I will definitely sell it in the county town."
Not to mention the current famine, even in good years, the villagers would not be willing to buy a pound of snacks for a year or two.
"When I went to the county town a few days ago, I saw that most of the disaster victims had been resettled, with only a small number of women and children begging on the streets. However, selling cakes like this is still a bit of a show."
If this thing is stolen, losing the item is one loss, and being injured is another.
"I think it's worth a try." Qin Yan suddenly said, "We can go for a high-end cake. Our county is said to be experiencing a famine, but it only affects the common people. The wealthy families won't be affected by this little rain."
Simply put, the area near Mushan Village was not one of the areas severely affected by the disaster.
The people were also at risk of running out of food, but they could still hold on and not have to pack up and become refugees.
Ordinary people can survive, but the rich and powerful are only slightly hurt.
"The only difficulty now is whether we can connect with the wealthy families."
Fang Tong pondered for a moment, realizing that wasting so much milk wasn't a good idea, and since the family really didn't have much money, he simply gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, fortune and wealth are achieved through risk, let's give it a try!"
Although there are risks in doing food business at this time, risks also mean opportunities.
All food prices have increased, and the food business will certainly increase as well. If they can seize the opportunity, they can make a lot of money.
"But we have to wait a while. We can talk about selling cakes after we plant the seeds."
No matter what, farming is still the main business!
The next morning, Fang Tong took his second brother and daughter out.
Someone greeted him on the road and asked him why he didn't go to the fields to work.
Fang Tong waved his hand and said, "We don't have any seeds left at home. Let's see if we can buy some wheat seeds."
Of course, this is just an excuse, a reason to take out the seeds given by the gods in a legitimate way.
Moreover, you don't have to go to the county to buy wheat seeds. The neighboring Xiaohe Village holds a market on the first and fifteenth day of every lunar month. They sell simple seeds and can also barter.
Fang Nanzhi hadn't been out to play for a long time and wanted to have some fun, so she jumped happily all the way.
However, when they arrived at the market, the three were stunned.
The market, which used to be bustling, is now deserted and dreary, with almost no people, only six or seven stalls scattered around.
Fortunately, the three of them were not really here to buy anything, so they just looked around and joined in the fun.
The first one was a shop selling baskets. They took a piece of cloth and spread it on the ground. It was filled with bamboo baskets of various sizes. The craftsmanship seemed good and the baskets were woven very sturdily.
Well...none were sold.
Who in the village doesn't know how to weave baskets? The difference between good and bad craftsmanship.
Even if your craftsmanship is poor, it is good enough for your own use.
Walking further, Fang Nanzhi's attention was attracted by a stall selling toys.
On the stalls are various animals woven from grass or bamboo, including rabbits, kittens, puppies, butterflies, and even the domineering mantis.
Fang Nanzhi pulled his father over and pointed at the woven centipedes, scorpions, and kittens on the stall.
"Daddy, Daddy, I want this and that!"
On the other side, Fang Yin also pulled him and pointed at the straw toys in the shape of kittens, puppies, rabbits, and butterflies on the stall.
"Third brother, third brother, I want it too!"
Fang Tong: ...
The stall owner was an old man who was drowsy at first, but when he saw people coming, he immediately became enthusiastic, fearing that they would change their minds: "Okay, okay, I'll pack it for you right away."
"Wait, we don't want to buy it." Fang Tong felt overwhelmed and pulled the two people: "I didn't bring any money when I went out, so I can't buy it."
The two of them were not naughty kids. When Fang Tong refused to buy them the things, they could only pout and be dragged away reluctantly.
Fang Tong coaxed casually: "I can also weave this toy. I'll weave it for you when I get back."
Fang Nanzhi's large, distinct black and white eyes widened, a mixture of disbelief and indescribable emotion. "Daddy, the grasshopper you made... forget it. I'm an adult now and don't like playing with these things."
Although Daddy is good at other things, he is really not good at things like weaving.
When she was a child, I made a straw hat for her, but it fell apart as soon as she put it on. It slid down her head and got stuck in her neck.
But the little girl thinks she is her father's sweetheart and doesn't want to expose his faults!
"Meat, meat!" Fang Yin pointed to a pork stall not far away and said with shining eyes, "Eat meat!"
As expected, they were friends who could play together. Fang Nanzhi couldn't even walk anymore when he saw the fat and lean pork belly. He swallowed his saliva and said, "You can stew it, steam it, sizzle!"
Fang Tong also swallowed his saliva. Not only you two wanted to eat it, he wanted to eat it too!
"Third brother, buy some meat!" Fang Yin was almost crying with greed, and was about to walk over there after saying that.
Fang Tong was quick to act and quickly dragged the two greedy people away.
"There's meat at home, go home, everyone!"
He didn't dare to go shopping anymore because of these two guys. They would ask for whatever they wanted.
Fang Nanzhi was dragged away, unable to stop looking back. Upon hearing this, he immediately said, "Daddy is lying. Where is the meat at home?"
"There's meat, of course there's not?" Fang Tong said confidently, "But there's still a cow, right?"
"You can't eat cows!" Fang Nanzhi retorted.
She's not stupid, the cow is rented! It belongs to someone else's family.
Fang Tong was even more reasonable: "I only said that there was meat at home, I didn't say it was edible!"
Anyway, he brought both of them out of the market, so Fang Tong was no longer afraid.
Fang Nanzhi had long guessed that her father would use fallacies and sophistry. Her father had always been like this, and she was used to it.
"Ugh!"
The little girl sighed slowly.
"Forget it, I am a small person and I don't care about your mistakes."
Fang Tong was amused: "Where did you learn so many words, little girl..."
He had barely said half of his words when seven or eight tall, thin men suddenly jumped out from the intersection ahead. Their clothes were tattered and they were holding kitchen knives and sticks.
Fang Tong's heart tightened. Disaster victims?
When they turned around, they found that six more people were behind them.
One of them had a particularly fierce look, full of hatred, as if he wanted to devour his flesh and blood.
"You are the one who killed my brother?" The leading man asked in a deep voice. Although it was a question, his tone was certain.
That night he specifically instructed his younger brother to take more brothers to Fang Laosan's house to steal food and capture children. As a result, his younger brother never came back... Apart from Fang Tong's family, there is no other possible murderer!
Fang Tong understood instantly that Xiang Wenbin had finally come to avenge his brother!
He pulled his second brother and daughter behind him and looked back: "Big brother, it was an accident. He fell into the trap on his own!"
Inwardly: No, it was his second brother who sent him off personally!
