Chapter 7 7. You ancient people knew marketing
Cheng Xi was walking on the streets of Linjiang Mansion carrying large and small bags.
In addition to half a kilogram of salt, she bought several feet of fabric and twenty kilograms of stretch cotton at the cloth store, which cost two and a half taels of silver.
“Alas~ It’s so worthless——”
Thanks to the support of those robbers, otherwise the cheap husband’s medicine money would have been spent all.
After thinking about it, I still have to make money.
Upgrade the green onion pancake tomorrow!
Cheng Xi touched the remaining five coins on his body and walked to a pork stall.
“Boss, how do you sell this meat?”
“Lean meat is 15 cents per catty, fat meat is 20 cents per catty, how much does the little lady want?”
"Seven pounds of lean meat and two pounds of fat meat. How do you sell pig's trotters and pig ears?"
"This thing has no meat. No one usually wants it. I'll give you five cents and take it away." "
The boss was full of energy. He cut five kilograms of meat with two clangs of his knife. Then he turned around and skewered four pig trotters and two pig ears with straw ropes.
Cheng Xi was overjoyed when he saw the "good things" bought for five cents.
“Boss, leave these unsold items to me in the future. I will come and get them when the time comes.”
"Really? Are you kidding me?"
"Really, I don't want anything else. I'll give you ten cents for four pig's trotters and two ears."
Pig waste is a good thing, but it takes too much time to process. She really doesn't have the patience. In comparison, pig trotters are very cost-effective.
Now that the weather is getting colder, it won’t go bad even if it’s marinated. It’s not too pretty to take it out for a toothpaste from time to time.
If that doesn’t work, she can still be put in the refrigerator in the space, right?
The stall owner agreed wholeheartedly, "Okay, then I'll leave the lady alone!"
The other party took the pile of coins and smiled so hard that he secretly sighed that he had met a big customer today.
Cheng Xi quickly arrived home after paying the money and carrying the things. He took out a few spices from the space and marinated all the meat he bought.
Heated over high fire, the pork after being blanched and fishy smells emitting bursts of aroma.
“Milk, it smells so good, it tastes like meat!”
"Who is making delicious food again? It's hard for people to live every day!"
"Milk, I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat!"
"Eat Eat as long as you want. Where do we have the money to let you eat meat all day? Come and work for me!”
Very good, the kid next door is crying again.
Cheng Xi was in a very good mood. She picked up the cotton and cloth she bought while humming a song and went to her sister-in-law.
"Xingqi, you are good at stitching, can you make a few quilts?"
Shen Xingqi was embroidering purses at this time. There was a one-meter-wide screen placed on the east side of the boudoir, with butterflies and birds in the pattern. Echoing each other, vividly.
This craft can definitely be applied for World Heritage status in modern times.
"Of course, the whole family is run by Sister Xiaoxi, so I help with the needlework."
"Everyone has his or her own strengths, and I am far superior in embroidery." Not as good as you, remember, you are the treasure of our Shen family.”
The little girl doesn't seem to know her own potential and value, so what can she do?
I, the people in Cheng Xi, must show the attitude of "I am the best in the world", even if I don't have it, I have to teach her!
Shen Xingqi had no idea that she would embark on a path of dominance. She smiled lightly at her, the sides of her cheeks turning pink from being praised.
"Sister Xiaoxi, you are so kind~"
"."
This kid is pretty easy to coax.
Cheng Xi couldn't help but take out a lollipop from the space and stuff it at her.
“Here, here are the candies I bought today.”
“I’m not a child.”
“I’m not even 15 yet, so why am I not a child? ”
She is still a baby herself!
Cheng Xi roughly estimated the weight of the cotton. Twenty kilograms was enough for one person and one bed.
“Let’s make three quilts first. I see that the weather is a bit cold, so the quilts should be thicker.”
There are many warm silk quilts in her space, and they are also made of high-quality fabrics. , but that thing is too eye-catching when taken out. If you want to survive for a long time in ancient times, you have to adapt to the environment.
Shen Xingqi nodded in agreement. With her help, she unwrapped the lollipop and put it into her mouth. Her dark eyes were incredibly bright.
***
In the morning, Cheng Xi got dressed, opened the window and took out the thermometer.
3 degrees.
Two degrees lower than yesterday. The water in the wooden bucket in the yard has a faint tendency to freeze.
The weather this year is indeed abnormal, and the speculation came true, which cast a layer of gloom over Cheng Xi's mood.
Being prepared for a rainy day and crisis awareness have been deeply ingrained in her bones. She is not afraid of ten thousand, but afraid of the unexpected. It is always right to prepare in advance.
Cheng Xi narrowed his eyes slightly, took out a pen and paper from the space and began to think about how to spend the winter.
Cotton coats and quilts are necessities. Charcoal in ancient times was too expensive, so you can buy more firewood and store it. The windows need to be sealed, as the oil paper can easily break in the event of strong winds and heavy snow. A wood-burning iron stove is also required to ensure indoor temperature.
The most important thing is food. Although there is no shortage of anything in her space, there are two people at home, so things have to pass through clear roads.
Oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, condiments, eggs and meat, fruits and vegetables, commonly used soups and medicines.
“In ancient times, it was not illegal to buy knives. Do you want two?”
Added!
The white A4 paper was filled with writing in a short time, and she listed a lot of supplies.
The mobile phone in the space rang an alarm, and Cheng Xi reluctantly put it in and pushed the cart to start a new day of making money.
Huaishui Pier.
This is indeed an important transportation hub in the Great Yan Dynasty. The pier is as lively and full of shouts as ever.
The arrival of the trolley caused many people to stop and watch. Five days is enough time for the green onion pancakes with a fragrant fragrance to open up sales.
Due to its high quality and low price, her stall is not only loved by the day workers at the dock, but also the wealthy people who usually run business can't help but buy a few more to eat on the road.
“Little lady, you are finally here, give me two cakes!”
"Okay!"
Cheng Xi quickly turned on the iron plate, and the prepared scallion pancakes simmered with oil when heated, and the aroma soon spread.
The regulars sniffed hard, and their eyes fell precisely on the wooden barrel on the right.
"It tastes like meat! What other food has the lady prepared?"
"Yes, it's braised pork. The braised pork in the pancakes will be delicious. Would you like one, sir?" ”
Cheng Xi opened the barrel, and the unique smell of braised food wafted out.
The red meat has a strong five-flavor aroma and the color is attractive, instantly capturing the taste buds of everyone 500 meters around.
In addition to scallion pancakes, today she also made a lot of meat bun pancake skins. They can be heated on the iron plate in a few seconds. It can be said to be a very fast food.
Cheng Xi took out a fist-sized piece of braised pork without waiting for a reply from the regulars, chopped green pepper on top, and put it into the heated pie crust.
“Sir, five cents each, do you want to try something new?”
The person opposite who was still hesitating was stunned.
Ah, the little lady is ready. Wouldn’t it be a bad idea not to buy it?
“Come one, come one, get the ten cents!”
“Okay.”
The other party couldn’t wait almost the moment he took the oil paper bag. After taking a bite, I was stunned for the next second.
A bunch of onlookers next to him were more anxious than him.
“How about it, is it delicious?”
“It tastes so fragrant, how can there be any reason why so much meat shouldn’t taste good?”
“This What's the reaction? You're talking!"
"Oh, I'm so anxious. Could it be that I'm choking?"
Under the gaze of everyone, the regulars were moved to tears.
"It's so delicious, eh - two more, no, three!"
Isn't it just five cents each, not expensive or not, he can eat five more !
The regular customers take out money from their pockets while eating the steamed buns, eager to stuff them into their mouths.
Seeing this posture, the rest of the people gathered around him.
"Little lady, give me a meat pancake!"
"I'll have one too, and two green onion pancakes!"
The car was instantly flooded with customers, with three tiers inside and three tiers outside. layer, almost squeezing out the owner of the car.
Cheng Xi: "."
There is no need to be so exaggerated.
You ancient people knew marketing.
