The Farmer Girl Gets Rich

Chapter 180: Grocery store

Because Aunt Zhang’s house is larger and in a remote corner, no one will come over on weekdays, and the venue is bigger.

Gu Xiaowan planned to take all the bamboo shoots to Aunt Zhang's house, peel them, slice them, boil them, and dry them.

After explaining all the procedures to the big guys, everyone in the family started to do it.

Gu Xiaoyi, Gu Ningping, and Shishi were responsible for peeling the bamboo shoots, and Uncle Zhang was responsible for cutting them into strips. Aunt Zhang washed them with clean water, then put them in a pot and boiled them. After they were cooked, they were picked up and placed in the sun to dry.

With a few baskets of bamboo shoots, a few people were busy all afternoon, and all of them were very busy.

"The weather has been pretty good these few days. It is estimated that it will dry in four or five days!" Gu Xiaowan said happily looking at the bamboo shoots that were drying in the yard.

"Xiao Wan, can this really be sold?" Although Aunt Zhang has been busy for a long time, she still can't believe it.

"Aunt Zhang, don’t worry, you can definitely sell it! And, the price is definitely not low! After it’s dried, I will burn a plate for you to taste, and naturally you will know its taste. This fresh bamboo shoot and The dried bamboo shoots have their own advantages. The longest fresh bamboo shoots can only be stored for a month, and the dried bamboo shoots can last for one year.” Gu Xiaowan replied.

"Oh!" All the people present suddenly realized, looking at the bamboo shoots in the yard, they didn't know how happy they were.

It was getting dark when the work was over. Gu Xiaowan originally planned to go back to cook, but Aunt Zhang didn't agree, so she left Gu Xiaowan and the others to go back after dinner.

For several days in a row, Gu Xiaowan and Aunt Zhang’s family worked in a division of labor, digging bamboo shoots for digging bamboo shoots, and drying bamboo shoots for drying. After a few days of busy work, the first batch of dried bamboo shoots have been dried.

Gu Xiaowan showed off his skills and made a plate of roast pork with dried bamboo shoots, all of which were heartily eaten. The dried bamboo shoots are chewy and taste good, and they are indeed a good ingredient.

"Aunt Zhang, tomorrow, let's drag these dried bamboo shoots to the town to sell!" Gu Xiaowan said as the dried bamboo shoots had been cleaned up.

"Yes! Let's leave for the town early tomorrow morning!"

We made an appointment. Early the next morning, as last time, Gu Xiaowan followed Aunt Zhang and the others into the town. But this time, Gu Xiaowan had a long heart. After she got home, she cooked another dish of dried bamboo shoots and roasted pork. , Also took it with him.

Aunt Zhang felt strange, and asked the reason, Gu Xiaowan replied: "You have never eaten this kind of food. I certainly don’t know how to make it and what the flavor will be. I will just make a plate and give them a taste. The taste is good, they will definitely take it, and they will definitely pay a big price!"

Aunt Zhang saw that Gu Xiaowan was so attentive, she couldn't help but nodded and praised: "Wan girl, what you think is so thorough!"

The group took the bullock cart and rushed to the town. Gu Xiaowan directly asked them to drive the bullock cart to the place where the pheasant was sold last time. She planned to find the old man Min.

Stone used to sell mountain products there, and it is considered to know the road, so he went to the grocery store.

auzw.com is the same as last time. A guy in the grocery store is busy. Old Man Min is smoking a big pipe and squinting at the door to bask in the sun.

Seeing the visitor, this old man opened his eyes and saw that it was the little girl who came here to sell pheasants last time and disliked him for the lack of variety. She hasn't seen him for a few months, but she looks even better than last time.

"Oh, little girl, it's been a long time!" Old Man Min sat up straight, holding his pipe in his hand, and greeted enthusiastically.

"Old man, do you remember me?" Gu Xiaowan hurried forward and called sweetly.

Old Man Min chuckled his pipe and said with a smile: "Can I not know you? You are the first person to say that I don't have many small shops here!"

Gu Xiaowan was a little embarrassed to see that Old Man Min still remembered what she had said before: "Old man, I just said that casually. Don't take it seriously!"

"Hey, little girl, what are you talking about? How could I not take it seriously!" Old Man Min blew his beard and said, "I was thinking, I have been selling groceries for decades. There are so few things, it seems to be a bit missing. Little girl, do you have any good things?"

Gu Xiaowan smiled: "Old man, you really didn't guess wrong. I really have something to give you this time!"

"Really?" Old man Min was a little excited when he heard that Gu Xiaowan was in a club like this. He didn't even smoke his pipe and put it on the small table next to him. Zhan stood up: "I don't have one here?"

"Well, you don't have it here!" Gu Xiaowan said firmly: "Since I said that your place is small and you don't sell many things, then you definitely don't have the things I brought here!"

"Then dare to love, hurry up, take it over and show it to me!" Old Man Min believed Gu Xiaowan very much. Seeing that this little girl had something she didn't have, he couldn't help but get a little excited.

"Don't worry, old man, don't rush to show you something, I made a little bit of this, you can taste it first!" Gu Xiaowan took out the big bowl wrapped in cloth on the bullock cart. , In order not to let the dishes inside get cold. When she took it out, opened the cloth bag, the dish was still steaming!

Old Man Min took a look, stretched out his thumb, and praised: "You little girl, you have a lot of ideas, and you are still thinking about it. You even got the old man to taste it first. Very, very good. Bring me over. Have a taste!"

Old Man Min clamped a piece of it. There were two things in it. One was meat, which he knew, and the other, the taste, seemed to have never been smelled or seen before, but he felt quite curious.

Old Man Min grabbed a piece and didn't worry about it. "What is this?"

"Old man, you taste it first, and I'll tell you after you taste it!" Gu Xiaowan rolled her eyes flexibly, and she closed her eyes, still hanging on the curiosity of Old Man Min.

"You girl, you are quite clever!" Old Man Min nodded at Gu Xiaowan approvingly.

After taking a bite, Old Man Min wiped his mouth, his eyes were bright, and he said three times, "Not bad, not bad! The taste is very good, um, very good, I really haven't tasted it."

Old Man Min ate a few more slices, so satisfied, he didn't even notice a drop of oil on his beard.

Seeing Old Man Min agreeing with the dry bamboo shoots, Aunt Zhang and Shitou were relieved. But Gu Xiaowan on the side was not worried at all.
