Just do it.

"Aunt Li, you guys go home and slice the radishes and pack them. Xiaolu's spicy cabbage, you see I made it. Cut the cabbage first and marinate it with salt. When I buy the other seasonings, you can make spicy cabbage."

"Okay, Mom, I'll pickle the radish and cabbage with salt. I'll squeeze out the water from the cabbage, and then I can spread the seasoning directly on it. What shape do you want the pickled radish to be?"

"Just make the crispy ones, the kind that you can eat tomorrow after soaking today. You guys just do some simple stuff first, I won't be out for long, I'll be back soon. We'll do the rest together."

"Okay."

Liu Xiaolu nodded to show that she understood.

Old Mrs. Li was already cutting radish slices over there, so Liu Caixia didn't delay any longer. She packed up and left in a hurry.

There were already quite a few people on the streets in the early morning, and the breakfast shops were emitting white hot steam, adding a lot of life to this bustling morning.

Liu Caixia couldn't help but buy a lot of buns. The buns made at that time were really not adulterated.

There are so many vegetables in the vegetable buns. She likes to eat vegetable buns, those with cabbage filling, leek and egg filling, and wild vegetable filling.

I bought a pack and will have it for breakfast tomorrow morning. It won’t go bad if kept for a few days in this weather.

Carrying the buns, she staggered to a grain and oil shop. Although Xiao Lu still had a lot of condiments in her space, she had to take out a lot of things on the surface, so she bought a bottle of white wine, soy sauce and vinegar.

I bought some coarse salt and fine salt. Fine salt is too expensive. Now I want to save money, so I bought a lot of coarse salt and just filter it at home.

The current grain prices have stabilized. Although much more expensive than in peacetime, they have not been looted. They roughly learned about the prices and left.

Liu Caixia didn't buy ginger and garlic, so she walked forward and soon reached the main street, which was even more lively. There were people coming and going on the street, and some porters were carrying packages, delivering packages of goods to some shops.

Liu Caixia came to a large business, Shen's Business, which should be one of the four major chambers of commerce in Dayuan. The Shen family has a relatively large influence in Shanqing County, which can be seen from the pomp of this business.

The store is located in the center of the main street, covers a large area, has three floors, and sells all kinds of things.

The first floor sells daily necessities, such as rare seeds or foods that are shipped from other places and are not in season. Liu Caixia even saw fruits like pineapples, but there were not many and the quality was average.

There were two men dressed like young masters standing there. The two servants in front of them were choosing among the pineapples. Finally, each of them picked one. The waiter happily took the chosen pineapple and said, "Gentlemen, take a look around. I'll pack it for you over at the counter. I'll also check out other pineapples you like later."

Liu Caixia also started to choose.

She actually found some rare things. If she was not mistaken, they should be tsaoko and tsaoko. Tsaoko is a very good spice for increasing fragrance and removing fishy and muttony smells. Tsaoko is slightly bitter and is also indispensable in marinades.

It’s a pity that these two things are not so easy to grow, and they must have been traded from our southern neighboring country.

The idle waiter on the first floor saw Liu Caixia staring at the two things and took the initiative to introduce them: "Sir, I want to buy these two kinds of fruits. These two fruits are new products. The boss asked the chef to try them. They can increase the flavor of food and remove the fishy smell of fish, beef, mutton, etc. Do you want to take them home and try them when cooking? The New Year is coming soon, make something delicious to eat with your family."

The waiter was very enthusiastic in introducing the products. New products are usually difficult to promote, but once they are promoted and more people need them, it will be a very good business opportunity. Moreover, their company was able to seize the opportunity and make a lot of money.

When distributing bonuses at the end of the year, the boss will be happy and give a bigger red envelope.

"How much is this? I have guests at home today, so I can buy some and try roasting it."

Liu Caixia asked calmly.

"The price is ten cents per ounce. Since you are the first customer to buy, I can give you eight cents. If the effect is good, please help us promote it more."

"Okay, I'm planning to open a food store too. How about this, I'll buy whatever you have here, and give me a discount."

"Is that so? Wait a moment and I'll ask the shopkeeper."

The waiter hurried away and came back, with a middle-aged man beside him. "Sir, do you want all of them?"

"Yes!"

"But we still have ten kilograms here, one type weighing five kilograms!"

Liu Caixia thought about it and decided that she could eat it. If she wanted to sell braised meat, this amount would not take long. However, she would definitely have to bargain for the price.

"Boss, I want them all. Please give me a real price."

"Sixty-five cents a pound, no less."

"Okay, pack it for me. I'll walk around and come back to pay later."

The shopkeeper and the waiter were very happy, as long as the new product could be sold, just like the pepper they sold at the beginning, which made them a lot of money.

There is still a shortage of supply now, and those wealthy families like it very much: "Okay, then you can go shopping again."

The shopkeeper left happily, and the waiter followed Liu Caixia and introduced everything to her carefully.

However, Liu Caixia never saw what she wanted again, so she went to the counter to pay and left with her things.

Next to the Shen Family Chamber of Commerce is a relatively large pharmacy.

The Li family pharmacy was even more bustling with people coming and going than the Shen family Chamber of Commerce in front.

Sure enough, getting sick is a big problem no matter where you are. You can not buy clothes, jewelry, or even food, but if you are sick, you have to see a doctor and get medicine.

After Liu Caixia entered, she went straight to the counter and asked, "Young man, do you have star anise, cinnamon, licorice, bay leaves, fennel, angelica, cloves, tangerine peel, angelica, codonopsis, and galangal?"

Liu Caixia had no other choice but to say whatever she thought of. After she asked all the questions in one breath, the little pharmacist who dispensed the medicine looked at her with confusion.

"Ma'am, do you have a prescription to fill the medicine yourself?"

Yes, at this time you can either get the medicine yourself with a prescription, or see a doctor here, and the doctor will prescribe the medicine and then you can get the medicine according to the prescription.

"Yes, I have the recipe. Do you have the one I just read?"

"Madam, I can't remember so much. Could you please write down the prescription? Also write down the required amount and how many doses you need. Then I can prescribe the medicine for you."

Liu Caixia had no choice but to borrow paper and pen from him and write down everything she thought of.

The little medicine boy was even more confused when he took the list written by Liu Caixia: "Madam, how much do you need? And how many doses do you need?"

He was just a little pharmacist and was definitely not well-trained. Among the limited prescriptions he knew, there was no such prescription as the one written by this lady, and he didn't know what disease it was used to treat.
