章 125: Not Enough
Xiaowu immediately covered his head and said: "I'll eat it, if sister says it's edible, it's edible!"
The old man used his chopsticks to pick up a crayfish first, but after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't place his mouth.
Qibao saw this and said: "Let me teach you how to eat it, the meat on the butt of the crayfish is the most meaty and tasty, break its tail in the middle, and this white meat inside can be eaten, and the flavor of the crayfish yolk in the head of this crayfish is very tasty as well." Qibao stuffed the crayfish into her mouth and squinted her eyes, instantly looking like she was enjoying herself.
The others saw that Qibao's food was so delicious, and it must taste good, so they imitated Qibao and started peeling the crayfish shells.
When the first bite of crayfish meat entered the mouth, everyone's eyes just lit up, Mrs. Wang spoke as she ate: "It's delicious, the meat is tender and flavorful, and it chewy, yet it's not too mushy."
The others agreed with this, everyone's mouths were spicy and numb from eating, and just like that they didn't want to stop their chopsticks.
Xu Dabo and the others were drinking beer while eating crayfish meat, it was really enjoyable. They were really enjoying themselves. It was Mrs. Lin who was peeling the crayfish meat for Xiaoliu because Xiaoliu couldn't peel the crayfish at all.
Xu Laosan saw that his wife was busy with his son and rarely ate it, so he peeled half a bowl of crayfish meat and planned to let his wife eat it later.
Soon five or six cans of beer were consumed, there was only some soup and water left in the large pot of crayfish, and Uncle Xu and the others still said they didn't have enough.
Others also like to eat it, the old man said: "Since everyone likes to eat them, our family will go fishing for some when we have time. There are a lot of crayfish in the river."
After having dinner and washing up, Qibao was thinking about something while lying on the bed, she knew in her previous life that there were a lot of bases dedicated to farming, and she wondered if she could rely on crayfish to open up the sales market, so that Xujia Village could become the first industrial chain base for crayfish farming in this country!
However, she wants to bring the whole village together to do it, and she has to wait until she has figured out the details before she can start implementing it.
After thinking about it, Qibao gradually fell asleep.
The next day, shopkeeper Tong arranged for the people who came to deliver the fruit wine to come, too, and brought many carriages. Everyone helped move the fruit wine to the carriage, and separated it with thatch in the middle to prevent collision and breakage.
Watching the carriage leave, the Xu family didn't turn around for a long time. This was their family's joint effort for a while. They didn't know what the outcome would be if they were sent to the capital this time.
Qibao also understood. Everyone who tried to take the first step felt a little uneasy. Moreover, this was the Xu family's first business and it was located in a wealthy place like the capital. It can be said to be a new milestone, she spoke up: "Everyone can see how our fruit wine tastes, so we don't have to think too much and can rest assured that the quality of the fruit wine will be good."
The old man nodded, and the family returned to the house.
Mrs. Wang said: "In this weather, you need to wear a coat in the morning and evening. People can sweat all over when the sun comes out at noon."
Mrs. Zhang said: "It's going to be June in a few days, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and food goes bad if you leave it too long, and later I'll ask my husband to come back and buy less meat in the future, and if we can't finish this meal, it'll spoil."
Qibao imagined this ancient summer scene. Not only did she has a headache, but she didn't have a refrigerator, and she had to wear long sleeves and long trousers. She wasn't afraid of getting prickly heat, it wasn't like in modern times when she could go out wearing a suspender skirt.
In this era, if a woman leaks a piece of her calf, she will be scolded for being unruly, which is really unfair to women.
Fortunately, Qibao has a space with constant temperature all year round. When it gets hot, She can goes in and enjoy the air conditioning, but others have to endure the summer heat.
...
A few days later, Shopkeeper Zhang from the barbecue restaurant came to the Xu family.
Qibao was a little surprised and asked: "Why is Shopkeeper Zhang here suddenly? Did something happen to the barbecue restaurant?"
Shopkeeper Zhang immediately bent down and said: "There's nothing wrong with the barbecue restaurant, but business is obviously not as good as before these days."
The old man hurriedly asked: "What's the reason for this?"
Shopkeeper Zhang replied: "Now the weather is getting hotter and hotter every day, I've asked the meat vendor to send fresh ones over every day, just for fear that the meat won't be fresh if it's left for a long time, but because we use stoves in our barbecue restaurant, it's warm in the winter, and the guests are willing to come and eat it, but when it comes to the summer, the temperature in this store is hotter than outside, and it's still hot if you open all the windows, and gradually the customers come in less and less."
When the old man heard this, he was a little anxious, and for a while he didn't know how to solve it.
Qibao was not panicked and said: "I already know the problem you mentioned. I will try to solve it in the past two days. You can do whatever you need to do when you go back."
"Yes, Master, I will go back first." Shopkeeper Zhang left quickly.
The old man asked: "Qibao, do you have any solution?"
Qibao replied: "I have a solution, but I have to go to the pharmacy in town tomorrow to see if I can solve this problem."
The old man was a bit puzzled, what does this pharmacy have to do with antipyretic? However, he didn't ask many questions, he didn't understand even if he asked, so he didn't need to waste his granddaughter's words to explain to him, and he would know it himself by tomorrow.
The rest of the Xu family were also worried when they heard the news, but they felt relieved after hearing Qibao's words that there was a solution.
The next day, Qibao followed her eldest uncle's carriage to the town, and the old man followed.
After dropping off her brothers at the academy, the three of them went straight to Leshan Pharmacy.
Shopkeeper Hong was a little surprised when he saw the three coming and asked: "Old man, why do you have time to come here? I heard that your family is very busy these days!"
Qibao was the first to say: "Grandpa Hong, we came here today to ask if you have saltpeter in your pharmacy?"
Shopkeeper Hong asked: "Is someone in your family sick? This saltpeter has the effect of laxative, cooling down fever and reducing swelling, are you sure you want this herb?"
Qibao said: "Yes, no one in my family is sick. I bought this saltpeter because it has other uses. From what Grandpa Hong said, the pharmacy should have this thing, right?"
Shopkeeper Hong said: "This is a very common medicinal material. Of course we have it."
Qibao then asked: "Then you must have a lot of them. How many does Grandpa Hong have?"
Shopkeeper Hong asked in surprise: "As much as you want, I just don't know what you girls need so much saltpeter for since it's not for healing?"
Qibao mysteriously said: "I have my uses, Grandpa Hong, just sell it to me."
Shopkeeper Hong was a little dumbfounded, and there was nothing he could do with Qibao, so he said: "Since you don't want to tell me, girl, I won't ask. I will give you all the saltpeter I currently have in my pharmacy."
Shopkeeper Tong asked his fellows to pack all the saltpeter in the store for Qibao and the others, fifty to sixty pounds of it, in a single sack.
Shopkeeper Hong asked: "Girl, is this much enough? You asked for it too suddenly. We only have these in the store at the moment. I'll have someone deliver more tomorrow."
Qibao said: "Thank you very much, Grandpa Hong. How much money will these cost in total?"
Shopkeeper Hong said with a smile: "This saltpeter is not worth much, so just treat it as a gift from me. Your pills also made us a lot of money. The price of saltpeter is incomparable."
