Chapter 116 Let’s go into the city!
The little boys ate the old-fashioned cakes that were freshly baked in the morning. They were warm, sweet and fragrant!
"Master! This is delicious! Is this something we're selling today?"
"No, I baked this early in the morning." Yu Baibai was very single.
Old Master Yu sat on the shaft of the mule cart and urged, "Hurry up and get on board. Let's go!"
A bunch of young boys got on the bus.
Fortunately there weren't too many people, otherwise there wouldn't be enough seats.
Both of these mule carts have compartments, so sitting inside will be less painful in this cold weather.
The mule cart driven by Mr. Qiao in the front belongs to Yu Baibai's family.
Yu Baibai was sitting inside, along with Qiao Sen, Yu Daguo, and a Yu Ergou. Gao Qian was also in the car.
In the other mule cart driven by Old Man Yu sat Yu Xin, Yu Rumao and Yu Xiaoyuan.
All five of Yu Baibai's disciples went.
Yu Baibai and his companions set off early, and the mule ran happily along the way.
When they arrived in the city, they found a place to park the mule cart.
Arrange the pastries according to Yu Baibai's instructions.
Several people stared at each other, and no one could open their mouths.
Yu Baibai sighed, opened his mouth and started talking in a crisp little voice:
"Don't miss it if you pass by! Delicious chestnut crisps, take a bite of them!"
“Sweet date cakes and soft rolls!”
"Uncles and aunts, you can try it, it's delicious!"
"Grandpa and grandma can also move~"
More and more people gathered around, and the apprentices also opened their mouths and started to learn to shout.
"These are all fresh ingredients~!" Yu Baibai took the time to say.
Yu Ergou held a small wooden plate with a dozen or so small pieces of snacks on it and kept recommending:
"It's got lots of eggs, oil, sugar, and other stuff in it! Try it!"
An old man who was dressed quite well said with a smile:
"Give me a box. Even when I'm old, this stuff is really good to chew."
Yu Daguo quickly took some oil paper and wrapped four of them: "Take them! Come back when you're done eating!"
Everyone enthusiastically recommended the snacks, and soon all the cakes were sold out.
Yu Baibai looked at the sun and felt that it was almost time, so he asked his apprentices to pack up their stalls and prepare to go back.
"Uncle, can you accompany me to buy meat buns?" Yu Baibai raised his head and tugged at Qiao Sen's sleeve.
"Okay! Let's go! Dad, I'm taking Baibai with me!"
Qiao Qingfeng nodded and said worriedly: "Well, keep an eye on it."
"understood."
Qiao Sen walked quickly holding Yu Baibai, and turned a corner into another busy street.
There happened to be an aunt selling eggs with a basket, and Yu Baibai bought them all.
I walked to the bun shop and bought nine big meat buns in a short while. They were still hot and steaming.
Yu waved her little hands and called out to everyone, "Come and eat the meat buns!"
"Thank you, Master!"
"Wow! It smells so good!"
Yu Baibai sat together with everyone and ate meat buns happily.
This attracted the attention of passersby. Yu Baibai is now much thicker-skinned and no longer feels ashamed as before.
She took a big bite with satisfaction. The meat filling was so delicious and juicy that she couldn't help but close her eyes and savor it carefully.
After finishing the meal, Yu Baibai patted his stomach and said with a smile, "Today is such a wonderful day!"
Others nodded in agreement.
Then they packed up their things together and set off on their journey home.
Along the way, Yu Baibai hummed a little tune and was in a particularly happy mood.
Everyone was talking and laughing as they walked towards the village. When they were almost home, they could see everyone gathered under a big tree at the entrance of the village from afar.
Yu Baibai's heart skipped a beat. Could something have happened at home?
She quickly jumped off the mule cart and ran over: "What's going on?"
She pushed her way through the crowd and squeezed in.
"Why are you all gathered here?"
"Isn't this Mr. Zhuge dividing the prey? After dividing the prey, they will return to the camp." The man was still a little reluctant.
Yu Baibai: I’m finally leaving. Grandma Zhang and the others cook so much food every day and they’re almost exhausted.
Yu Baibai walked through a group of thighs and came to the front.
The first thing you see is a group of pheasants, rabbits and other animals in the middle, all fluttering around.
I squatted down and poked it with a small wooden stick. Great, it's alive!
If this were made into spicy rabbit, it would be so delicious!
"Slurp~" I'm greedy
"Go home, don't squat here."
Yu Baibai looked up and saw his mother looking at him helplessly.
He stood up and smiled, opened his arms and asked for a hug: "Mom~"
Qiao Mu picked up Yu Baibai helplessly and turned to leave the crowd.
"How much did you earn today?" If you don't make much money, then you have to coax them.
Yu Baibai stretched out five fingers.
"Five hundred wen? That's not bad."
Yu Baibai shook his head, as if asking him to guess again.
"Five taels!?"
"To be exact, it's five taels and seven hundred and sixty coins!" Hehehe! That's amazing!
Qiao Mu also stopped walking and asked: "What? How much is one piece?"
"Eighty! They're scrambling to buy it!"
Qiao Mu: A profiteer! Just like her father!
No matter how small a piece of dessert is, it’s only the size of your palm, your small palm.
You only sell it for eighty, how dare you!
I'm really impressed. If this happened in modern times, you would be thrown into jail and I would have to say something!
Yu Baibai chuckled and said, "Mom! I made a net profit of more than four taels!"
What a genius I am!
Qiao Mu didn't know what to say. He was originally planning to comfort the little girl, but...
Well, he is even better than his father!
His father only gives him one tael a year, but his daughter makes a net profit of four taels a day!
The disciple is better than the master, and the waves behind push the waves in front forward.
Tsk tsk tsk, I really want to see Yu Yaozu’s expression when he finds out.
When they returned, the apprentices were squatting in front of Yu Baibai's hut, with a mule with its reins loose next to them.
"Let's go into the house!"
He opened the door and entered the house, sat on the sofa, and took the silver out of the space through his purse.
Yu Baibai took out all the remaining silver:
"This is the money we earned, but except for the chestnuts, we got the rest of the ingredients from the village head."
"That means we have to pay it back, with interest."
They had no objection to what Yu Baibai said.
They had nothing to begin with, and if it weren't for Baibai, they wouldn't be able to borrow anything even if they wanted to.
Yu Baibai took out two taels of silver and handed them to Yu Xin: "Give this to the village head, and the rest will be used as a start-up fund."
They didn't understand and just listened to Yu Baibai.
Yu Xin nodded and stood up to take the silver. If you look closely, you can see that his hands are shaking: "Yes, Master!"
Yu Baibai nodded with satisfaction: "Then let's take advantage of today's favorable conditions and do more, and continue tomorrow!"
She has it all figured out: make some creamy ones today and sell some expensive ones tomorrow!
It can definitely be sold for more than ten taels!
"Master, just tell us what you need us to do! We will definitely not be lazy!"
