Chapter 99 Oil Paper Cup
“Yes!” "Everyone present looked at Xia Mingyue.
"I have to think about it again to see if it is feasible." There is no need to say it out loud, as it will only increase your worries.
Everyone knew Xia Mingyue's steady temperament, so they stopped asking any more questions and just continued to enjoy the skewers on the plate.
All delicious food must go into the stomach, so that it can be worthy of the stomach.
Only then can you be worthy of this delicious food.
On the second day after Xia Mingyue came up with this idea, she first asked He Shunzi, who came to get ice powder every day, if anyone could make bamboo sticks and whether the cost was high.
“Bamboo sticks are not difficult to make. Basically every household in the village can make them. Old people, women and even children can make them. I’m not sure how much the price will be, but it shouldn’t be high. Wait for me. "It's confirmed, let's give Madam Xia a message," He Shunzi said.
"Okay, you can take a look at it then." Xia Mingyue was filling He Shunzi's ice powder and asked in surprise, "It seems a little cold today, do you still have to eat ice powder every day?"
Since you are a big family People, I think they should pay great attention to diet and health.
Fake physalis seeds are a neutral thing, so that’s okay. However, in order to taste better, ice powder has the best texture and taste when it’s iced. It’s not very hot at this time, so I eat it like this every day. , after all, it is not good for the spleen and stomach.
"I really don't know about this." He Shunzi scratched his ears, "The kitchen in Dexinyuan still needs it every day. I think it is probably prepared every day, just in case the old lady wants to eat at any time. ?”
“I just gave the kitchen money every day. Since they want to do this business, let’s continue to do it. I have been collecting the small lanterns for the past two days. I will wait until I collect more. Send it to Madam Xia. If you can’t use it up, you can wait until next year.”
"Yeah." Xia Mingyue nodded in agreement.
He Shunzi said it right. If this business is profitable, just do it first.
The rest will be discussed later.
After explaining the matter about the bamboo sticks, Xia Mingyue went to the grocery store and asked about the oil paper.
When it comes to this oil paper, Xia Mingyue has to admire the creativity and technology of her ancestors. The oil paper made of bamboo, wood, etc. is waterproof and oil-proof, tough and durable.
On weekdays, Xia Mingyue often buys some oil paper here for wrapping cakes, so she is considered a regular customer here.
The shopkeeper of the grocery store also greeted him with a smile, "What does Madam Xia want?"
"I want to ask about this oil paper." Xia Mingyue said.
"Ms. Lu just bought a lot of oil paper from here the day before yesterday. She said that Xia Ji needed to use it. Could it be that it ran out so quickly?"
Or maybe the quality of the oil paper here is not good. So it can't be used?
The shopkeeper looked at Xia Mingyue with some worry.
"The ones Sister-in-law Lu bought were used to sell sesame cakes on weekdays. I want to find something different." Xia Mingyue said, "I want to buy some thicker oil paper, it is best to dip it directly for me Okay, make it look like a cup.”
“Just like this.” I want to use it to hold some soup and water. It will be easier to hold than a bowl and the soup will not leak out." "That's it." The grocery store manager breathed a sigh of relief, but frowned, "But this may not be good. I have to think about it and see if I can make it.”
It has to be thick and sticky, and the soup must not leak out. It is indeed not an easy task. .
And since I have never heard of this thing before, I probably don’t even have the possibility to ask others for advice, so I have to think about it myself.
The shopkeeper of the grocery store fiddled with the oil paper for a long time and sighed, "I guess I have to think about it for a few days. Madam Xia, please go back first. If you can do it well, bring a message to Madam Xia. Son.”
"Then I'll bother the shopkeeper." Xia Mingyue said, "And it's best if the oil paper cup is cheaper. If it's too expensive, it probably won't be of use."
"Understood." The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly.
In most cases, oil paper and other items are sold as accompaniments to food, and are given away for free. Naturally, the price needs to be as low as possible.
The grocery store owner has been doing business for many years and knows this truth.
After sending Xia Mingyue away, the shopkeeper began to think about how to make the oil paper cups she said.
Xia Mingyue, on the other hand, walked around the street to see what to make for lunch.
"Ms. Xia." Butcher Hong greeted Xia Mingyue from afar.
“Shopkeeper Hong.” Xia Mingyue arrived and said with a smile, “Have you finished eating the chili sauce?”
After giving Butcher Hong the chili oil last time, his wife Fang loved it so much that she thought about eating it all day long, which made Butcher Hong have to come to Xia Mingyue every two days to buy the chili oil.
At first, Xia Mingyue gave everything away for free, but the chili peppers were just fine, and the oil was not cheap. Even though Butcher Hong had lowered the price of meat for Xia Mingyue, he was too embarrassed to buy it with money.
Xia Mingyue declined at first, but in the end she couldn't, so she accepted, but she also put a lot of effort into the chili oil.
Considering that pregnant women need certain nutrition and cannot eat chili as a side dish all day long, when Xia Mingyue cooked chili oil, she added some pork fillings to make a fragrant and nutritious pork chili oil. Eating it can not only satisfy your cravings, but also fully supplement your nutrition.
Later, it was modified into a version of shiitake mushroom and pork chili oil with added shiitake mushrooms. No, it should be renamed chili sauce at this time.
Shiitake Mushroom Pork Chili Sauce is Madam Fang’s favorite. She would panic if she didn’t eat it for a day. But thanks to this Mushroom Pork Chili Sauce, Fang’s mouth condition improved and she started to eat other things during this period. , which made Butcher Hong very happy.
As a result, he respected Xia Mingyue even more. He smiled and bowed, "I still have the chili sauce that Madam Xia made last time. I haven't finished it yet. I just heard about something and happened to see it." Madam Xia came over and planned to tell Madam Xia. "
"Shopkeeper Hong is the most well-informed. Have you heard anything interesting again?" Xia Mingyue joked, thinking that Butcher Hong was going to tell some gossip. One sentence.
But Butcher Hong suppressed his smile and lowered his voice, "It's about the front line."
The front line?
Xia Mingyue's expression suddenly became serious, "What happened on the front line?"
"I heard that the imperial court sent troops to attack Changzhou Fucheng. They fought for a long time but were not able to capture it. There was another fight a few days ago. The big one still failed. Instead, the general died of serious injuries, and countless soldiers below died. But come here..."
Butcher Hong said, "Too many people have died, and the war is still going on. The military camp has not bothered to count the casualties. The news of many soldiers killed in battle has not yet spread."< br>
