Rebirth, end of the world, time travel, escape famine, make money!

Liu Caixia was also confused by the questions asked by this little medicine boy.

Yeah, she didn't react just now.

How much should I buy?

After thinking about it, I decided to keep a low profile and not buy on a large scale, as this would easily arouse suspicion.

If I were to start a business in the future, this marinade recipe is an exclusive secret, so it would be best to buy it separately from several pharmacies.

After thinking for a while, he tore the list in half, handed over half of the paper and said, "Give me two taels of the same thing on this one."

"What? Two taels?"

The little medicine boy was shocked by her method. He had never heard of such a way of dispensing medicine. He looked at Liu Caixia uncertainly, and Liu Caixia confirmed with him again: "Just give it to me. I am only useful to you. Thank you for your help."

The waiter picked up the order and asked again, "Dangshen and Angelica are not cheap, ma'am, are you sure you want so much?"

"How much are Codonopsis and Angelica?"

Yes, the key point is that she really doesn’t have much money left.

Miscalculated.

"Dangshen costs eight hundred coins per liang, and Angelica costs one liang and six cents per liang."

It’s okay, it’s acceptable.

"Okay, let me calculate how much it is."

"The total is eight ounces and two cents."

"Okay, please order a little."

Liu Caixia handed over the silver and copper coins she lost, took the packages of medicinal herbs wrapped in oil paper, put them in the cloth bag she brought, and hurried away with it.

She really didn't want to stay any longer. She was afraid that the little medicine boy would think she was a monster. He kept staring at her, and even though she was thick-skinned, she felt a little embarrassed.

I went to two other smaller pharmacies on the street and bought some of what I could find. The ones I couldn’t find probably didn’t have that stuff.

Time passed quickly. After walking for such a long time, there were fewer people on the street. It seemed that it was almost time for lunch. Some vegetable vendors who had sold their vegetables on the street were already carrying their empty baskets and walking towards the exit of the city.

Liu Caixia came to a butcher shop in the vegetable market and looked at the remaining meat in the shop. The meat in the better position was gone, and the remaining ones were some scraps and pig offal.

In modern times, pig offal is sold separately and the price is quite expensive.

At this time, pig offal are sold together at a relatively cheap price. Many people who don’t have money to buy meat buy some pig offal and cook them at home.

"Boss, how much is this pig intestine?"

The boss was very happy to see someone asking about pig intestines today, and quickly replied: "Pig intestines are ten cents a pair. Here is some pork. Do you want to take a look? The front leg meat is still very fatty."

Liu Caixia looked at the piece of meat. The fat was quite thick, but the lean meat was even bigger. It seemed that the pig today was quite big. There was also half a pig's head and two pig's trotters next to it. There was also half a pig's liver, pig's stomach, and pig's heart. The rest was gone.

"Boss, there's also the pig's liver, pig's stomach, pig's heart, two pig's trotters and half a pig's head. Give me a discount!"

In the end, Liu Caixia spent 120 cents to buy a bunch of miscellaneous things. She thought it was quite cheap, but she didn't know whether it would taste good or whether she could sell it.

Just go home and test the water first.

There’s not much. I’ll take it to the shop tomorrow and sell it together with the kimchi.

If you can’t sell it, you can eat it yourself.

Liu Caixia came out empty-handed and went back with two large bags, both made of rags and old cloth. They were specially used to carry things. She carried one on her back and the other in her hand.

But Liu Caixia was exhausted. Fortunately, her daughter had space, which really saved a lot of trouble along the way. But now she can only rely on manpower.

From now on they will live a normal life.

Try not to use your supernatural powers unless it is a special situation.

When Liu Caixia returned home with bags of things, she saw the house was filled with radishes and cabbages, which were placed in winnowing baskets and basins in the yard.

It was Liu Xiaolu who opened the door.

Seeing Liu Caixia coming back, she took the initiative to talk about what they did in the morning: "The radish and cabbage are pickled, and we are just waiting for you to come back to prepare the seasoning. Grandma Li is cooking. I am playing with Wan'er in the house. Mom, Grandma Li said that we need two lidded pickles for pickling. There is only one at home, which was left by Aunt Wei. But it is too small and not very big. It can't hold so much. We need to buy two new ones."

"Okay, let's go buy it after dinner. I'll put the things down first. They're too heavy."

Liu Xiaolu helped put Liu Caixia's big bag on a large table in the kitchen. Li Yao was watching the fire in front of the stove, and Old Lady Li was already cooking.

"The meal is ready. Just stir-fry some vegetables and then we can eat."

"Okay, I also bought some buns."

"There are some leftover pancakes, which I have heated up. Just save the buns for now. You can eat them tonight or tomorrow morning. There are too many of us to finish them."

"Aunt will arrange it. I'll go wash up first."

"By the way, ma'am, to make kimchi, you need to buy two wagans, the kind with lids, and some oilcloth and hemp rope for sealing."

"Xiao Lu just said that I will go buy it this afternoon."

A bowl of stir-fried cabbage, a plate of hot pancakes, and a bowl of steaming multi-grain porridge for no one. Liu Caixia was really a little hungry, so she took a sip of the porridge and sighed, "I'm really a little hungry."

"Eat slowly. Even though the porridge has been sitting for a while, it's warm in the kitchen so don't get burned."

Old Mrs. Li reminded with a smile.

"Auntie, the temperature is just right. Eat it quickly. It won't be good if it gets cold. It's not good to eat cold food in this weather."

Liu Caixia picked up a piece of pancake, tore it into pieces with her hands, and put one piece in each person's bowl.

Li Yao and Li Wan'er picked up the pancake from the porridge bowl, took a bite, and it was so delicious.

A bite of pancake, a bite of porridge, and a bite of fried cabbage. Although there was no meat, everyone at the table looked very satisfied after eating.

Everyone was eating with a smile on their face.

No matter what you eat, as long as there are many people eating together, it feels like eating delicacies from land and sea.

Liu Caixia ate two bowls of porridge before she finished.

"Aunt, I bought some meat and pork offal. You should stay home with the children this afternoon to clean them. I'll go buy some Wagang and then we can make kimchi."

Old Mrs. Li was stunned when she saw the pig head, pig legs and offal that Liu Caixia bought.

"Why buy so many?"

"I plan to sell not only kimchi but also braised meat tomorrow. I have already bought the ingredients for the stew. You guys clean these things out, and I will start stewing them when I come back."

Old Mrs. Li didn't know what to say and could only do whatever Liu Caixia said.

"Oh, auntie, when you wash the pig's offal this afternoon, boil hot water instead of cold water. It will not only make it dirty but also greasy and freeze your hands. Just like in the morning, boil a pot of hot water and add cold water. Wash with warm water, and rub the pig's intestines vigorously with the ash from the kitchen. If there is hair on the pig's head and feet, roast them in the pot."

Liu Caixia explained it carefully to Mrs. Li, who did not refute. She nodded and said, "I know all this, don't worry. But no matter how clean the pig's offal is, it will still have a smell when it is cooked. Will it taste good and anyone buy it?"

"I'll make it tonight and you'll know if you try it. I'm not going to say how delicious it is, but I promise it won't have any weird smells."

"Okay, I promise to wash it clean for you."
