Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

"Just last night, a few mysterious people came here, and the county magistrate received them."

"We heard them discussing with the county magistrate that during this period, they should strictly calculate the profits of all restaurants, shops, and the autumn harvest of all towns and villages under their jurisdiction, and then make a comprehensive report."

Although he had been prepared, Qiao Jianer still felt a sinking feeling in his heart.

Sure enough, what is supposed to come will still come.

"Also, those people have already told us that not only the shops along the street, but also the food stalls with good business must be counted, and where the stall owners are from must be counted."

"They said they would come again after the autumn harvest is finished, and there would be more people."

A Da didn't know whether this was what Qiao Jian'er was interested in. Before the heavy rain, Sister Jian'er came home from the county town and specifically told them to pay attention to the wind direction which was different from before. They should pay close attention to the county government office to see if there were any people they had never seen before coming here.

After much thought, this is the most appropriate one.

"Sister Jian'er, there's also the fact that the county magistrate's wife and brother have been secretly together for two years. We just found out about this, and the county magistrate has been kept in the dark. Oh, and yesterday, a kind of large yellow pig, never seen here before, was brought in from out of town. They're said to be bred from wild boars in the mountains. We went to see them, and they're quite large, quite a novelty."

The corners of Qiao Jianer's mouth twitched. Why was she listening to all this nonsense?

"Okay, I got it. Just keep paying attention to the first thing you mentioned, and don't worry about the other miscellaneous things."

After hearing her say this, Ah Da also knew the general direction and nodded heavily: "Yes."

Qiao Jianer took out three taels of silver from his sleeve and handed it to Ada.

"We won't be setting up a stall during this period. Apart from asking you to inquire about the news, there's nothing else for you to do. We won't be settling wages like before."

"Take this little bit of silver. Once you have a full stomach, you will have the strength to run errands."

Ada took the silver, his eyes full of emotion.

"Sister Jian'er, don't worry, we will do everything you ask us to do."

"Even if you don't set up stalls anymore and don't have anything to tell us, we won't starve to death. We can still earn a little money by doing odd jobs in restaurants and hotels."

"This is the principle of life you taught us, teaching us to be self-reliant."

"Okay, I'm talking as if I won't care about you anymore." Qiao Jian'er smiled, "But things won't always stay the same. The most important thing is for you to develop your own abilities."

"Yeah, I remember."

The weeds in the yard had long been cleared, and the house inside and out was clean and tidy. In the kitchen, the original stove had collapsed in a corner, but it was repaired by the children. The children's lives became planned and orderly.

Qiao Jianer was thinking about when to let them register their household registration here, but now was not the time.

This house has been abandoned for three years, but it is not something that can be occupied whenever one wants. If one were to request it from the county government now, it is likely that the government would find it difficult to approve it.

Zhao Li was about to report her bridge-building story. If she could get a little extra blessing, it might be helpful.

So, let's wait a while.

Dayong came back driving the carriage with a happy look on his face.

"We've sold all 2,000 kilograms of goods, but the restaurants still think it's not enough and want to place more orders."

One thousand kilograms of potatoes, five hundred kilograms of corn, and five hundred kilograms of peanuts were all sold out, and he made a profit of forty-two taels in one go.

After driving the carriage into the yard, the three of them waited outside.

Such tacit understanding made Qiao Jianer wonder if her family had guessed something.

In fact, it is unlikely to keep it a secret from them for a long time. The Qiao family members are not fools.

They chose to avoid her actively because they didn't want to embarrass her and gave her space.

Qiao Jianer smiled knowingly.

Potatoes were in the greatest demand, so she added another 1,000 kilograms of potatoes, followed by 300 kilograms of peanuts and 700 kilograms of tomatoes.

Dayong led the way to the restaurants and hotels that needed ingredients. Half of the potatoes were sold out quickly, and the peanuts were almost sold out.

Qiao Lianer drove the carriage again and went to Boss Cai's Jiuweilou.

Seeing Qiao Jianer, Boss Cai immediately smiled happily: "Little girl, it's been over a month since we last met. Just now, your brother came to sell ingredients, and I thought I wouldn't see you today."

"The food I bought from you before the heavy rain was sold out at the restaurant a long time ago. I was thinking that if you didn't show up, I would go to your village to look for you."

Qiao Jianer said, "I also brought a new ingredient for Mr. Cai, and a recipe that's sure to be a big hit."

"Oh, what are the ingredients?" Boss Cai was very curious.

Dayong opened the carriage door, and Boss Cai saw those red things, each as big as a fist.

Boss Cai picked it up and looked at it with a look of surprise on his face. He had indeed never seen it before.

It's more like fruit than food.

"Is this thing delicious?"

"Well, this is called tomato, and it has its own way of cooking. I'm going to make a dish now, but the recipe will be exposed as soon as I start cooking. Boss Cai needs to buy this recipe from me first."

"Okay, I believe you. How much is this recipe?" When Boss Cai heard that it would be a big hit, he knew that the price would definitely be more expensive than the previous recipe.

Qiao Jianer held up ten fingers: "Ten taels."

Boss Cai touched his chin and said, "But it's three times more expensive than the previous one."

"But you can earn it back soon." Qiao Jianer blinked.

Boss Cai thought about it carefully and made up his mind: "Okay, I promise you."

Qiao Lianer picked up two tomatoes and asked for four eggs. He went to the kitchen and fiddled with it for a while. After a while, he came out with a large plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

"Boss Cai, please try it."

When Boss Cai saw this, he knew why Qiao Jianer asked for money first, because it was so simple, just stir-frying two things together.

However, after he savored it carefully, he nodded with appreciation: "It is indeed worth the price."

Then I thought, ten taels is fine. If I just sell this thing to him, he won't know that it can be fried with eggs to make such delicious food.

“How long can this last?”

"Put it in the cellar. It will keep for ten days."

"As for the price, I'll ask for a little less, fifteen cents per pound."

Boss Cai calculated in his mind that two of these things weighed almost one pound, and with four eggs, he could make a good dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes. He wholesaled eggs at one cent for two, so the cost of the ingredients was seventeen cents, and he could sell them for thirty cents a plate, so the profit was also good.

It’s a bit expensive, but the customers who come to his restaurant are all well-off.

"Okay, I want all these tomatoes, and potatoes too. Give me another 500 kilograms."

He only managed to grab 300 kilograms in the previous batch. This thing can be kept for a very long time, and the chef in the restaurant has developed many ways to eat it. 300 kilograms is not enough for him.

"Boss Cai, I want to discuss something with you." Qiao Lianer lowered his voice.

Not only does she have to be prepared there, but this also has to be reasonable.

Now we can be sure that those people will come.
