This period of time is the busiest time for everyone.

At this time, everyone is looking for ways to make money.

In the past, everyone went to work, there was no other way. Some people just did odd jobs, and no trade was allowed.

At that time, transactions between individuals were prohibited.

Only large factories with purchasing certificates can receive supplies.

With this certificate, individuals will be able to sell things to them.

Now, there is no control and anyone can trade.

You can sell things to anyone.

In the past, you could only trade secretly in the pigeon market, but now you can do it openly and no one will care about you.

As long as you have something, you can sell it.

Food can be sold, and so can the hunted game.

The herbs collected can also be sold.

Zhang Weiguo often saw many people from the villages below bringing things to Sijiucheng to sell.

There are a lot of things, and there are all kinds of things.

The main thing is some food and eggs.

They exchanged the things they sold for some daily necessities, and salt was one of the things they lacked most.

In addition to this, matches are also the most purchased item.

Living conditions are much better now than before, and many people are willing to buy some pork to take back.

In rural areas, pork can only be eaten during the Chinese New Year.

At this time, they would also buy some pork to take back.

The main thing is to buy some fat meat to make lard.

Put the boiled lard in a bowl, it is white and very fragrant.

At this time, if you have a bowl of white rice, put a spoonful of lard in it and mix the white rice, it will taste delicious.

Being able to eat a bowl of rice mixed with lard is a very luxurious thing.

It would be even better if some granulated sugar could be sprinkled on it.

What day is it?

This is a life like the gods.

These very common items were, at that time, extremely scarce and required tickets to purchase.

It’s not that you can buy as much as you want, there are limits.

Even in Zhang Weiguo's store, there are certain restrictions.

If you buy everything, what will happen to others?

What do they buy?

If you buy a large quantity, you need to reserve in advance.

Let us know in advance how much you need so that we can reserve some for you in advance.

When other people get married, a lot of meat is needed, dozens of kilograms of meat, and so much meat needs to be reserved in advance.

Getting married is a very important event and it requires treating guests to a meal.

The strength of a family can be seen from how the meal is prepared.

This is the only time in a lifetime, so I want to make it look beautiful.

There were no conditions before, so we kept it as simple as possible.

During the most difficult times, no one prepared a banquet.

No one had enough food to eat and it was impossible to get anything.

Now, everyone has the conditions, unlike before, when we get married at this good time, we all want a lively and festive occasion, and a banquet is a must.

There was a large table of dishes, at least half of which were meat dishes.

At this time, more meat is needed.

In addition to the braised pork, there must also be a chicken.

If conditions are good, catch another fish.

Basically there are eight dishes and two soups.

This kind of feast is really good.

Everyone enjoyed the meal and it was also a great honor to talk about it.

People in Beijing always care about their reputation.

You must earn enough face.

Normally, it doesn’t matter if you eat less, you must get it done at the critical moment.

Whenever people mention it, they all say something good.

The number of pigs Zhang Weiguo sells every day is also limited, because he can only raise a limited number of them.

A few hundred pigs may sound like a lot, but if you average it out over a day, it's not that much.

The things needed for the braised pork shop need to be purchased from other stalls to get enough.

The sales volume of the braised pork shop is huge. In addition to the daily sales of the store, many people make reservations and take them away to set up stalls every day. These are also very large numbers.

As more and more people came to buy, Zhang Weiguo even specially recruited two more people.

Among these, the braised pork shop has the best business and the most people.

Being able to eat a bowl of hot braised pork is a very happy thing.

Even Zhang Weiguo himself would sometimes eat a bowl of it.

The stewed food that Zhang Weiguo eats must be mostly large intestines.

When this thing is done, it smells better than other things.

You must eat this when eating braised pork, the kind that is all meat, it is not delicious at all.

Zhang Weiguo's employees don't have to pay if they eat braised pork.

There's so much of this stuff, eating just one bowl won't mean much at all.

They can't eat it every day.

Although this thing is good, you will get tired of it if you eat it every day.

It's okay to change the taste every two days.

If there is any left, they can divide it among themselves.

This thing is cooked fresh every day, so there is no problem with the soup.

The longer the soup cooks, the better it tastes.

The first pot of soup is not the best. You need to cook a few more pots so that the flavor of the soup can fully come out.

There are certain requirements for the soup of these braised dishes.

Many stews require special soup.

This soup is used up continuously, and water is constantly added to it.

The taste of the food is largely determined by these soups.
