A small peasant girl who traveled through time and space picked up a war god prince

Siyu asked

Shopkeeper Feng, please tell me how many kilograms you would like to order per day.

Shopkeeper Feng

Order 30 kilograms a day first and try to sell it.

Thinking of Rain

Okay, I'll start with 30 kilograms. After the two parties agreed on their respective needs, Siyu said goodbye to Mr. Ji, Shopkeeper Du, and Shopkeeper Feng.

Siyu and Zhou Tingxuan walked out of the clinic.

Thinking of Rain

I looked at the contract happily, thinking, haha, I've got my first pot of gold since coming to ancient times. It's also a long-term meal ticket.

Siyu grabbed Zhou Tingxuan's sleeve and said, "Come on, let's go buy some meat."

Zhou Tingxuan found it a little funny to be pulled along.

Arriving at the meat stall, Siyu said, "Boss, I'm going to buy all the offal." I also bought the pig's trotters and pig's heads that were thrown around.

Thinking of Rain

Boss, are there any offal around here?

The boss says

If you need more, we have several butchers here who deliver several sets of offal every day. I can ask for you.

Siyu said

"Yes, you can contact them and ask them to come over. As long as there are freshly slaughtered pigs with intact offal, including heads and hooves, I'll take them all. I'll give you 50 coins for each pair." The boss was very happy when he heard this.

The butcher said excitedly

Young boss, my last name is Han. If you don’t mind, you can call me Uncle Han.

Thinking of Rain

Okay. Uncle Han, let's settle the bill. A whole set of offal, head, and hooves is 50 wen. A simple cleaning will add another 20 wen.

Boss Han thought carefully,

A pig's head costs 10 wen, and pig's trotters are okay, 5 wen each, so selling them all for only 30 wen. This time, the boss gave me 50 wen for a pair. It's not difficult to wash them, and he added 20 wen more. It's perfect.

Siyu said

Boss Han, we need to sign a contract with you. You'll be supplying us with goods for a long time. Do you want to sign the contract alone, or with a few other people? If you sign it alone, I'll give you an extra 10 wen. You can collect all the goods for me, tell them to clean them briefly, and then deliver them to my house. Is that okay with you?

Boss Han

He nodded happily, "Okay, okay." Boss Han then called over the other butchers. They each had a pair or two of pigs to prepare every day. They kept all the pig's viscera, heads, and trotters, cleaned them briefly, and each pair cost 50 wen. The butchers happily agreed and went back to get their pig's viscera, heads, and trotters.

Siyu asked Boss Han

Uncle Han, please take me to Bai Qingyuan’s home in Baijia Village later!

Han Dazhuang

Nodding repeatedly. OK.

Siyu Road

Oops! We haven't bought the marinade ingredients yet. Zhou Tingxuan, we need to go to the clinic again.

So the two of them returned to the clinic.

Siyu arrived at the clinic

Mr. Ji and the others were still talking and hadn't left yet.

Ji Lao said

Siyu girl, why are you back again? Is something wrong?

Siyu Road

Give me some cinnamon, star anise, Sichuan peppercorns, galangal, pork belly, tangerine peel, goji berries, fennel, cumin, tsaoko, cloves, and longan. Siyu listed a dozen or so herbs.

Ji Laowen

What do you need so many herbs for?

Siyu playfully said the secret, I won’t tell you, Mr. Ji misses the little girl, I know whether you tell me or not, what are you going to do with her when you take her home?

Mr. Ji went to weigh what he wanted.

Siyu asked

The shopkeepers haven't left yet, and they all look worried.

"Master Ji, it's because Manager Feng is afraid of the internal organs. Those dignitaries can't accept this filthy thing, right?"

Thinking of Rain

Isn't this simple? Why does it make you so hostile?

Shopkeeper Feng

Said excitedly, you really have a way.

Siyu nodded

Yes, Siyu and Zhou Tingxuan sat down. Siyu then explained how to sell braised meat: spend a certain amount of silver and get a small plate for free. Alternatively, they could heat the braised meat and cut it into small pieces for customers to sample. However, some people were too expensive to sample, so they would have to spend a certain amount of silver in exchange for a free plate. This promotion would only last for three days.

Several people in the clinic praised...

Siyu and Zhou Tingxuan said goodbye to everyone and walked out of the clinic.

On the way home, I passed by a pastry shop.

Siyu pulled Zhou Tingxuan into the pastry shop, bought some pastries, and then they went home.

When she returned home, Siyu saw many people in the back mountain.

Thinking of Rain

Mother, please ask a few aunts to help wash the pig offal. Ten cents each.

He turned around and went to the foot of the mountain to look at the grain fields. Zhou Tingxuan felt bored and followed him.

Lan Niang

Watching the two of them walk away, Lan Niang wondered if Zhou Tingxuan was interested in Yu Yatou. Why did he follow her wherever she went? Lan Niang didn't dwell on the question. If they were interested, they could just let things take their own course.

Lan Niang called a few good sisters to come over and help her wash the internal organs.

Xiuzhi said,

Lan Niang, are you buying this?

Lan Niang

Yes, Siyu brought back a lot today.

Lan Niang, sisters,

The internal organs have been simply cleaned, then rubbed with some wood ash, cleaned thoroughly, and then rubbed with flour a few times.

Siyu arrived at the place where the land was being measured and saw her father, the yamen runner, the village head, and several uncles from the clan, following her father in pulling the measuring rope to measure the land again. Siyu, uncles, grandfathers, thank you for your hard work.

Siyu looked at the ground and thought, with so many people helping out, she needed to prepare lunch for the yamen runners. So she and Zhou Tingxuan headed back. Just as they reached the foot of the mountain, two people suddenly appeared, startling Siyu. She looked up. "Oh, isn't that Bai Shuya and Bai Zhenzhu? What are they doing?"

Bai Shuya

She performed a rather awkward ceremony, thinking she was elegant. She said, "Sir, I am the daughter of the student Bai Musong, and I am 13 years old this year."

Bai Zhenzhu stepped forward and pushed Bai Shuya aside.

White Pearl says

Hello, sir. I am 14 years old and Bai Tongsheng’s younger sister. As she spoke, she raised her eyes shyly and glanced at Zhou Tingxuan.

Siyu couldn't help but burst out laughing.

White pearl

Bitch, what are you laughing at.

Siyu replied,

Who are you talking about, bitch?

White Pearl Returns

Bitch, I'm talking to you.

Zhou Tingxuan couldn't help but laugh, hahaha, hahaha. But his laugh was very gentle, his lips slightly curled up. Bai Shuya saw it and couldn't take her eyes off him. She thought to herself that a man as gentle and refined as a virtuous orchid, as handsome as Pan An, was the right one to be my husband. How could he be so cheap? Bai Siyu was a money-loser, he couldn't do anything and was so ugly. I can do needlework, understand poetry and literature, have a father who was a student, and will be a daughter of an official in the future. What does she have!

Bai Shuya raised her head and said with a sad and angry look,

"Sister Siyu, how can you say that about my aunt? After all, he is your elder, how can you talk back to your elders? And you call your aunt a bitch." Bai Shuya thought to herself, seeing how disrespectful and rude you are, how could Mr. Zhou be interested in you? But I am different. I am well-educated, well-mannered, kind and generous, unlike you, that wild girl, who is so rude.

Siyu couldn't help laughing. You said me, haha, you have no respect for elders. It makes me laugh to death. My elders are at home. How can you be considered elders? You are like a bat sticking feathers into a chicken. Who do you think you are? You are really like a fool with only porridge in your mouth. Why are you pretending to be confused? Go and have fun and don't be an eyesore here.

Siyu and Zhou Tingxuan said, "Cousin, let's go home!" It's unlucky here. Bai Zhenzhu didn't have Bai Shuya's calmness. She immediately said anxiously, "Mr. Zhou, she is so rude and uncultured. If you let her follow you, you will only lose face." But Bai Shuya stared at Bai Siyu intently.

Bai Shuya

Just wait for Bai Siyu, I will make you pay.

When the two of them arrived home, several aunts were talking and laughing while washing the internal organs with their mother. Siyu told the aunts that after washing, they would ask everyone in the family to come over for dinner and that she would tell them something good later.

Aunt Xiuzhi said

What good news do you have? You can’t let the aunts know first, Siyu said, let’s talk about it after lunch.

Thinking of Rain

Aunts, go back and call everyone in the family. When the grandparents are here, we can share it together.

Several people said,

Row,

Row

You naughty girl, you are so sneaky. Who taught you that?

By the way, girl, how do you know that wood ash can remove the stench from pig intestines?

Siyu Road

I saw that in a book, too. After washing, I'll start braising. People from both places eat here at noon, and the aunts have called everyone in their families to eat together. After the yamen runners leave, I have something good to say.

Aunts, let the children go home to call people, and several aunts stayed to help prepare lunch. Siyu prepared two large pots to braise the meat and started preparing lunch. Siyu prepared eight dishes.

When the dishes were ready, people from both places arrived. Everyone began to sit down according to their host and guest positions, and ate happily until the meal was over.

Siyu winked at her father, sent the runner away, and gave him two taels of silver.

Bai Qingyuan

Thank you for your hard work, brothers. Let's go back. This little money is not a token of respect. You can take it back and buy some wine.

The two yamen runners gladly accepted the silver and left.

Yamen Runner

This man is so kind and generous, and it's worth the extra land we measured out for him. He gave me two taels of silver, which is quite generous. You said this piece of fine cotton cloth is 960 wen, which is enough to buy fine cotton cloth for my family back home, and there's still enough left to buy two pounds of meat.

Let’s not talk about what happened after the yamen runner left.

Siyu began to talk about the purpose of calling relatives and friends. However, one person in the group stared at Siyu with an unfriendly look, thinking that Siyu had no reason to be angry and was shameless.

And this person was none other than Bai Sirou. He couldn't stand Siyu's way of being in the spotlight. A woman standing in front of a man and pointing fingers at him every day didn't look like a lady from a noble family at all. Bai Sirou secretly looked at Zhou Tingxuan, jealous of him in her heart. Why did he look at that dead girl? What's so good about him? He is a wimp and only knows how to work every day. Unlike me at home, I can knit, do housework, play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Moreover, my grandfather is the clan leader, and I was brought up to be a lady from a noble family. Why doesn't he even look at me, but always looks at that dead girl?

Siyu ignored Bai Sirou. Zhou Tingxuan felt his gaze but did not look back at him. He just looked at Bai Siyu there, looking so heroic and talking so eloquently. He felt that she was particularly lively, not petty or pretentious at all. In Zhou Tingxuan's eyes, Bai Siyu was indescribable.

He is the whole world in his eyes, and no other woman can compare with Bai Siyu.

Siyu said

Aunts, uncles, grandpas, and grandmas, I signed an order in the county town today. It's for the braised meat I make. You've all tried it.

I signed an agreement with Yuehualou and will start delivering tomorrow. We'll deliver 30 jin (approximately 100 catties) a day. Four women will come to my house every day to help clean the pig's offal, including the head and trotters. I saw how they cleaned it today. Ten fen (approximately 100 kg) a day. I have at least four sets of offal braised daily, so the total is at least 120 jin (approximately 100 catties). If there's more offal, it could be 150 or even 200 jin (approximately 100 catties).

Tomorrow is the first day. I have braised these today, which will leave me with 120 kilograms, not counting what we eat.

Siyu said, "I'll send 30 kilograms to Yuehualou tomorrow. The rest will be distributed evenly among several stores for sale. We'll all have the same price, neither lowering nor raising it."

The purchase price I give you is 30 wen.

The price is 35 wen per jin. This is my first time going with everyone. I'll tell you how to sell the goods later. I wonder what your uncles have in mind. You can discuss it with yourselves. If it works, we can move on to the next step.

Everyone whispered to each other.

Fourth Grandma, ah! 30 cents.

Aunt Xiuzhi, 30 cents!

Aunt Cuihua, oh, really? Yu girl, isn't 30 wen a bit expensive?

The price of this recent product is 30 wen per catty.

Hu Tieniu

Yes! This is more expensive than fat?

Huang Jinlei

But it tastes really good.

Everyone was talking at once. How could anyone really buy it at such a high price? How many copper coins would it cost per pound?

At this time the patriarch spoke.

Okay, stop arguing and listen to Yu Yatou. This girl is kind and righteous. She is grateful that we all helped her family when the family was divided. That's why there is a profitable business. I was thinking about you. What are you still talking about? You have eaten the braised meat and you know how it tastes. As an old man, I can see that it is a profitable business. What are you still hesitating about? Let Yu Yatou tell you quickly, what should we do next? Do whatever he tells you to do.

It's right to listen to him, this girl is very capable! You won't suffer any loss if you listen to her, and neither will you!

Village Head

Yes, it’s Tingyu girl! This girl has a plan in mind and is capable.

The village chief grandfather said,

We have to listen to you, this is our own granddaughter. Even if others don't support you, your great grandfather has to support you. We all listen to you and do whatever you tell us to do.

Siyu looked at these three kind old men and thought to herself, with these three old men in the Bai family, there is no need to worry about the Bai family not soaring to success and prospering!

Thinking of Rain

To continue, you all sell it for 35 wen per pound. We are doing this for 5 families, including Grandma Liu. They are the village head's family, the clan leader's family, the village chief's family, Fourth Grandma's family, Uncle Huang's family, Uncle Hu Tieniu's family, and the other family is Grandma Liu in the village.

The village head said

Oh, Granny Liu hasn't had it easy these past few years. Her son died in the army, and her daughter-in-law passed away a few days later. She raised her grandson alone and helped him become a scholar. I heard he's taking the exam. If this business were available, life would be easier for both of them.

Siyu Road

If you are confident, come to my shop tomorrow to pick up the goods. Several people asked happily, "Is it true? Can I really make 5 wen per catty? If I sell 10 catties, wouldn't that be 50 wen?"

This daily income is equivalent to two days' income from carrying bags at the dock.
