Chapter 25 Chapter 25 Daily Income of 20,000
In front of the square stalls
"A total of 125 yuan." Jiang Heng skillfully weighed and bagged the packaged crayfish and mulberries and handed them over.
Guests scan the code to pay.
During the process, Jiang Heng reminded me that I could join the group. The time for setting up the stall would be announced in the group, and I could also place orders in advance. About 30% of the customers were willing to join, and the number of people in the group gradually increased.
However, as time went by, Jiang Heng noticed that there was a new mushroom stall not far away, which did have some impact on her mushrooms.
Mushrooms themselves taste great, and even without the blessing of spiritual energy, they are still a rare delicacy.
For many people who are not very sensitive, her mushrooms are just of better quality. If the price can be much cheaper, they can accept the lower quality. Therefore, there are indeed many old customers who often buy mushrooms but did not buy mushrooms this time.
But the overall customer flow is not much less, mainly because Jiang Heng still has crayfish and fish.
There is a huge difference between fish and fish.
Especially those customers who had eaten there once, when they saw Jiang Heng selling fish again, they basically ordered one without saying a word.
Those who like grilled fish mostly buy grass carp, and occasionally buy big carp. Those who like braised fish have more choices, including carp, bream, crucian carp, black carp, and mandarin fish. Those who like to stew soup can use crucian carp, black carp, and bighead carp.
Not to mention that Jiang Heng also has crayfish.
Especially at the price of 40 yuan per pound, it is already a good deal for such a large size, so more people are willing to buy it.
Jiang Heng prepared three boxes, weighing almost 40 kilograms. Within half an hour of opening, most of them had been sold, with more than 10 kilograms left.
Half of the other box of slightly smaller and more expensive crayfish is left.
Most of the mulberries have been sold, and there are still more than ten pounds left.
Half the mushrooms were missing.
Jiang Heng took advantage of the fact that no one was around and sat on the tricycle. He lazily took out his cell phone to play games and suddenly felt a little emotional.
Ever since the mushroom stall has had more customers, she hasn't had enough free time to play games for a long time!
Of course, a big part of the reason is that farming games become boring after reaching a certain level. At this time, Jiang Heng couldn't help but miss a farm game deep in his memory, where he could grow vegetables, raise livestock, and then steal vegetables from friends.
It’s a pity that the service has been discontinued.
After playing for a while, some customers came one after another and a lot of sales were made. Jiang Heng was about to sit back when he saw a familiar old customer running over.
*
Wang Miaoyuan, as an old customer who opened the mushroom stall, originally did not plan to come to buy today. The main reason was that she bought a lot the day before yesterday. In addition, her and her best friend's income was not very high, so they had to restrain themselves when it came to such expensive vegetables.
However, this restraint was instantly broken when I saw the message from the vegetable selling group.
"Crayfish! Don't you want to taste it?!" Wang Miaoyuan said decisively to her best friend Yu Gui.
Yu Gui also agreed immediately: "Buy it! I heard them say when I was waiting in line before that the boss's fish is delicious and has no earthy smell. The quality of these crayfish must be very good! I can accept the price."
Wang Miaoyuan: "Actually, the price isn't that expensive compared to other options. The big ones are only 40 yuan per pound."
Yu Gui: "Oh my god, I have to buy that!"
"How many pounds?"
"Two catties? Isn't that enough?" Yu Gui said, and then subconsciously wanted more. It was all because the crayfish was so delicious that he always felt it was not enough. He couldn't help but increase the order: "Four catties? One hundred and sixty seems okay?"
"Okay!" Wang Miaoyuan agreed immediately.
After hanging up the phone, I couldn't wait to get off work, but it turned out that my boss had a meeting near the end of the day!
It turns out that no matter how small the place is, there are bosses who like to hold meetings after get off work.
The meeting lasted almost an hour, and when Wang Miaoyuan ran out of the company, he was worried that the boss had sold out and closed the stall.
As a result, I hurried over to take a look, and found that there were still quite a few?
Especially the mushrooms, there were a lot more left than she expected?!
Wang Miaoyuan hurriedly said, "Boss, give me four pounds of these black and red shelled crayfish."
Jiang Heng immediately took the net bag.
Wang Miaoyuan started picking mushrooms again. There were still some of her favorite fir mushrooms left, so she decided to buy a few more to round up her two hundred yuan. As she was picking, she casually asked, "Boss, why are there so many left today? Are you late too?"
Jiang Heng laughed and explained, "There are other stalls that also sell mushrooms."
Wang Miaoyuan was suddenly embarrassed: "Oh oh."
If you are such a dead mouth, you shouldn't ask.
Now that's better.
Fortunately, the purchase was quick. Wang Miaoyuan paid and left quickly. This time he was not going to the vegetable market, so he went back directly. When he walked to the other side, he saw a middle-aged man selling mushrooms at a stall. The intersection here was two hundred meters away from the square. Usually, many old men and women brought the vegetables they grew at home to sell. The price was cheaper than that in the vegetable market, and there was a fixed flow of customers.
Fortunately, there were two customers picking mushrooms in front of the stall at that time.
Wang Miaoyuan saw the price tag at a glance and was stunned.
What? ?
Chicken mushrooms only 150?
Although she only bought it once and tried it, she found it too expensive and couldn't afford it, but she still remembered the price there, starting from two hundred!
This gap... no wonder it's so big.
Wang Miaoyuan suddenly felt like he was being cheated and couldn't help but walk over to take a look.
The boss saw me and immediately greeted me warmly: "Come and take a look, these are fresh wild mushrooms, just picked today!"
Wang Miaoyuan walked over and, as he got closer, he saw that most of the mushrooms were the same varieties as those at the stall over there. It was just that…they didn't look or smell as good as those over there. Why? They were still fragrant, so they must be mostly wild mushrooms, but the size and appearance were noticeably different.
Wang Miaoyuan immediately no longer felt that he had been cheated.
The quality is different, so of course the price is different.
"Boss, are these really freshly picked from the wild? Why don't they smell so good?" An aunt next to her picked for a while and suddenly asked, just in time to express the doubts in her mind.
Wang Miaoyuan took a subconscious look. Isn’t this the aunt who always buys mushrooms with them?
Li Ruqin didn't notice her, but just frowned and stared at the mushroom in his hand.
The boss immediately shouted, "Of course it's wild! Many mushrooms can't be cultivated, especially this chicken mushroom, which requires termite blood to grow."
Li Ruqin narrowed his eyes slightly. Having been in the vegetable market for many years, he immediately noticed that there were not many.
Maybe most of them are wild, but not necessarily picked by the boss himself.
That's what she said.
They haven't seen any good mushrooms in many years. Firstly, it is difficult to find wild mushrooms due to the damage to the environment. Secondly, they couldn't get a high price here before, so they sold the few they found. Now that someone selling wild mushrooms has appeared again, it may be that this boss is looking for others to buy them.
Most of the good wild mushrooms grow in wild mountains and wilderness, so their freshness is greatly reduced, so the appearance is definitely not as good as those over there.
After thinking it through, Li Ruqin also put down the mushrooms in his hand.
If you haven't tasted anything better, this is pretty good.
But she had eaten it.
Looking at these again, they don't add up.
That young girl is quite amazing. She can get so many wild mushrooms that look fresh every day.
The boss said anxiously, "Why did you leave? These are all good mushrooms. If you like them, I can give you a discount."
"No, no, the vegetables I bought are enough for us to eat." Li Ruqin waved his hand quickly and walked faster.
Wang Miaoyuan happened to watch the whole process and left quietly.
It’s okay if it’s a bit expensive, she really prefers the mushrooms from Boss Jiang’s place.
Moreover, good quality food makes people feel comfortable when eating it.
She usually likes to stay up late, can't sleep at night and can't get up during the day. It is painful for her to get up early for work, so she has acne breakouts on her face every day. There are not many, but they are continuous, one after another, which is very annoying. But recently she has unknowingly improved her sleep. She feels sleepy at a certain time at night and there is no problem of not being able to sleep at all. The acne has also disappeared a lot, and her skin condition has improved a lot.
In comparison, Wang Miaoyuan felt that spending a little more money was worth it.
After returning home, she told this to her best friend.
The two chatted while carefully preparing the crayfish. Hearing her say this, Yu Gui was surprised: "You've slept better too?! I thought it was because I haven't ordered takeout recently. I've been sleeping much better, and my hair is less oily!"
"Wow!" Wang Miaoyuan was reminded of a blind spot when she said that. "Oh yeah, I think it's me too. The last time I washed my hair was yesterday or the day before yesterday. Oh, the day before yesterday! If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that my hair has gotten oily so quickly!"
The two looked at each other and sighed heavily.
Wang Miaoyuan: "Sure enough, it was all my fault for staying up late. Now that I've had a good rest, all my problems are gone."
Yu Gui: "You still have to eat good ingredients, your body will feel comfortable and your sleep and rest will naturally become regular!"
Final conclusion: "Let's continue to buy mushrooms from Boss Jiang!"
I just hope Boss Jiang won’t be so discouraged that he stops selling mushrooms.
——
Jiang Heng felt that he was not that fragile.
By seven o'clock, only a few fish and crayfish were left, and the thirty kilograms of mulberries were left in poor condition, but one-third of the mushrooms were still left.
Jiang Heng remained calm.
Song Ming has been feeling anxious. She hasn't taken the initiative to promote her sushi in a long time, but she started again today. In addition to promoting her own sauce, she also mentioned the mushrooms from Jiang Heng's stall next to her. She talked about how good the raw materials were, and how her sushi tasted so good.
Unfortunately, it has been so long, and everyone already knows where she buys the mushrooms for her sushi. They must have their own reasons for not buying them, so there are only a few customers who are introduced to her.
At 7:30, all the crayfish were sold out, and there was only one large grass carp left. Jiang Heng handed the crayfish to Song Ming, and seeing her worried look, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's okay. I've been expecting this day to come."
The provincial capital has developed well in recent years, and the government has also freed up energy to slowly develop their city. For example, the roads in her village were built with government funding. They are much richer overall than in previous years, so once the market opens now, there will definitely be competitors.
Jiang Heng, who is well aware of this, does not intend to try to accommodate all the guests.
She is alone and has to make time for cultivation, so it is enough for her to sell so much.
Song Ming cupped his hands: "You have such a good attitude!"
She admired him deeply.
Jiang Heng whispered, "Because my main business isn't actually selling wild mushrooms."
Song Ming:?
She looked at Jiang Heng with a puzzled look on her face.
Jiang Heng said mysteriously: "You will know the day after tomorrow."
Song Ming's eyes widened: "Are you still keeping me in suspense?!!!"
Jiang Heng chuckled and ran away quickly.
go home!
*
The first thing Jiang Heng did when she got home was to be intimate with the two little cuties, Caramel Pudding and Caramel Pudding.
Soothe their little hearts after not seeing their owners for three or four hours.
The little ones are too clingy, it’s a happy trouble.
Then put the fish back into the basin, clean the remaining mulberries, squeeze the juice and put it in the freezer, and add it to warm water to give to the people who helped tomorrow.
Then place the remaining mushrooms on a drying basket.
The mushrooms at home were collected by my aunt-in-law. The room on the first floor originally belonged to her parents and is now empty, which is just right for storage. After a day of exposure to the sun, the mushrooms have shrunk a little, so I left an empty winnowing basket to hold the extra ones.
The total amount of mushrooms for Song Ming's colleague has been obtained. All that is left is to dry them thoroughly and pack them before shipping. She does not plan to go mushroom picking tomorrow. After being busy for so long, she can finally take a break.
After Jiang Heng finished all these, he started to calculate his income.
There were quite a lot of things today. There were more than 30 kilograms of mulberries in total, and a few kilograms were not sold. This is normal because some of them were supplied to the fruit shop and some were distributed to customers, making a profit of more than 900 yuan. There were about 40 kilograms of fish, which was almost 2,000 yuan. There were fewer mushrooms today, and the ones left were more expensive mushrooms, such as chicken mushrooms, so I only made 2,500 yuan.
Then there are today's big-headed crayfish.
More than 40 kilograms of shrimp with black and red shells, totaling more than 1,600 yuan; and 15 kilograms of crayfish with green and red shells, earning 750 yuan.
Adding all these up, I earned a total of 7,880 yuan from setting up the stall today.
Um? ? ?
Jiang Heng was stunned by the result. She thought that because she sold fewer mushrooms, her income would decrease.
It turns out it’s almost eight thousand!
If you add the more than 10,000 yuan for door-to-door delivery, the daily income is almost 20,000 yuan!
Satisfied, satisfied.
*
Jiang Heng was in a very good mood and made herself a cup of honey water to moisten her throat.
I talked a lot while setting up the stall today, so I need to take good care of my throat.
Drink honey water while petting the dog.
I first used the dust removal technique on the caramel puddings one by one, then took the puppies to the sofa and rubbed them. It was already past eight o'clock and it was dark outside. The only sounds around were the chirping of insects and the occasional barking of dogs.
"Woo!" Caramel's temperament was obviously fiercer. The dogs outside were barking because they were being cursed too harshly, so it would occasionally gather its strength to respond.
But he was soon defeated by Jiang Heng's superb hair-stroking technique. He whimpered and lay down with his belly exposed, wagging his tail to signal her to continue.
Pudding was lazy and just lay in Jiang Heng's arms and didn't get up.
After drinking a glass of honey water, Jiang Heng stood up reluctantly.
The work is not done yet.
She took out a small portion of frozen fish viscera from the refrigerator, blocked the two fish that were about to follow her, and drove her tricycle to retrieve the trap that had been there all day.
The pond is a little distance away from here, and there are bumpy and uneven fields in the middle. The tricycle cannot go directly there, but it can be driven a little closer, stopped, and walked straight there with two large buckets of water.
When he arrived at the pond, Jiang Heng found that there were more footprints there.
And they were men's footprints.
Jiang Heng simply followed the footprints and walked to an area with lush vegetation. The water plants here had just been stepped on. In the green cover, there was a trap line hanging there.
She didn't put any traps here, so someone else came.
She had come here several times before and had never found any footprints, so why were there any today?
Or when everyone in the village knew that the pond was contracted by her?
However, she didn't put any fish or shrimp fry in, and she didn't have time to send down the spiritual rain.
She didn't feel like she had lost anything. The things in the pond didn't belong to her in the first place. It was a surprise after she contracted the fish pond. If she cared about it, others would say she was stingy. She could only wait for two days for the fence to be enclosed here so that no one else could get in.
After confirmation, Jiang Heng did not move and went to deal with his own trap.
Before leaving, she had to set up some restrictions around these four traps, as she was afraid that someone would come to pick the fruits of her traps.
Pull back the first trap.
It feels heavy.
When it was towed all the way to the shore, it was obvious that it was filled with large cargo.
A hint of joy appeared in Jiang Heng's eyes.
There was a lot more in the pond than she thought.
I caught all of it yesterday, and there are still so many today!
Normally, a trap would have two compartments full of fish at the end, which was considered a lot, but hers took up almost half the space. Jiang Heng collected them one by one, shook all the fish and shrimps into a pile at the bottom, and finally untied the rope with her other hand.
“Crash…”
The sound of heavy goods falling into the bucket.
One bucket couldn't hold all the water, so some was divided into another bucket, and only then was it full.
At the end, there were still two crayfish hanging on the trap. Jiang Heng shook it vigorously, and the crayfish fell down reluctantly and landed in the bucket with a plop.
Next, separate the smaller ones.
Jiang Heng didn't need to use his hands, otherwise those crayfish would not be vegetarians. He shook the bucket with only a bottom, and a stream of water flowed out from his fingertips, like a ribbon, into the bucket, easily swept away the exposed little guys, strung them into a big bunch, and threw them back into the water with a "whoosh".
Then transfer all the big ones from the fuller bucket into this bucket.
What a big fat carp! How did it get in here when it’s so big?
Jiang Heng rolled up a carp and let it go, then picked up an eel. The eel was covered in wounds, and when it was caught, a large lobster's claws happened to hold its tail tightly. As the food was fighting each other, Jiang Heng threw them together and took away several large shrimps.
There was not a single eel yesterday, but today she caught several. She would keep them for two days and sell them after their injuries healed. She remembered that eels were not cheap.
It's just a smaller eel, and she threw it back. It's still a baby, so I hope it grows up and gives birth to other eel babies.
After picking and choosing for a while, Jiang Heng saw a... to be more precise, a snake!
Water snake.
It looks very similar to an eel, but if you look closely you can clearly see snake scales, and then a look at the head confirms it completely.
If it were Jiang Heng before she traveled through time, she would have been breakdancing by now. Fortunately, she had gone to the world of immortal cultivation to gain experience. She transferred the water snake into another bucket without changing her expression. She would not eat it, but she could give it to the masters as a snack tomorrow.
After picking everything out, I got half a bucket of goods.
Most of them are crayfish, and a small part are fish and eels. The main reason is that the big fish are too big to get in, so she doesn’t want small fish either.
Then he set up a second trap.
This one had less in it, but it was also heavy, just enough to fill a bucket. After Jiang Heng finished picking, she carried the two large buckets to the tricycle. Fortunately, she brought four buckets with her before coming out.
After all four traps were used, Jiang Heng put the fish entrails he brought back as bait one by one, then he picked up the traps and threw them into the middle of the water. The traps unfolded in the air and sank into the water with a splash. After a while, there were a lot of movements around the traps.
Fish intestines with spiritual energy double the attraction!
After putting everything in place, Jiang Heng left a little spiritual energy on each of the traps. Without any formation, it could only protect against small animals for a short period of time, but it could allow her to sense the situation here for a long time. If anyone touched her trap, she could rush over at the first time.
——
Nightfall
Jiang Heng was sleeping as usual.
Suddenly I felt the trap moving, so I woke up from my dream and changed my clothes.
The two dogs sleeping in the soft doghouse beside the bed were awakened, and ran over in panic with their short legs, looking at her with their heads tilted.
Jiang Heng took the time to rub their heads: "It's okay, go to sleep."
The voice is particularly gentle.
The two were confused and Jiang Heng had already slipped out and locked them in the room.
Then the spiritual power under his feet surged, the land shrank into an inch, and the man appeared a hundred meters away in the blink of an eye.
After a few times, we arrived near the pond.
Jiang Heng no longer used his spiritual power, but ran over directly. When he was within sight, he turned on the flashlight and shone it directly over.
The bright light seemed to illuminate the sky here, and also made the person who was moving her cage visible clearly.
The man probably didn't expect someone to suddenly appear. He was startled and cursed, then shouted, "Who is it?! You suddenly appeared!"
Jiang Heng swung the flashlight, focusing on the fishing net he had just let go of in shock: "The owner of the fishing net in your hand."
The other person was startled, and his originally tense body relaxed. He smiled and said in a very mature tone, "It turns out to be Xiao Heng. You are not here to press the surveillance camera, are you?"
This man's name is Jiang Cheng.
There was an idle man in the village who was about thirty years old.
He married a wife with the support of his family. His wife worked outside, and he went out to work for half a month each time and came back to rest for a month. He often couldn't find a job, so he usually stayed at home to play cards and drink with friends.
The two families didn't have much interaction on a daily basis. Jiang Heng knew this because this man often mocked her for being a nerd when she was a child. After she grew up, his house was always the most lively during the Chinese New Year.
People from the surrounding villages would come to his house specifically to gamble.
Of course, I didn’t lose hundreds of thousands, but I have lost ten or twenty thousand in one night.
Therefore, it appears very frequently in conversations among villagers.
He is a person who has a bad reputation in the village but no one wants to offend him easily.
Jiang Heng hadn't been back for several years, so she didn't know if the situation had changed. However, she wasn't afraid. She simply nodded and asked in a cold voice, "Yes, after all, this pond is mine now. How come you don't know?"
Jiang Cheng smiled awkwardly, "It seems that's the case, haha, I forgot, I just remembered that there are fish and shrimp fry in this pond before, and now I just happen to be craving for some crayfish, so I came over to eat some."
Jiang Heng glared at him coldly: "Oh, then what about touching my trap?"
Jiang Cheng slapped his thigh and said in frustration, "Oh, this is your trap? I misremembered it and thought it was mine. Sorry."
Jiang Heng sneered: "Did you remember it wrong?"
She didn't waste any time and went straight to a position a little behind Jiang Cheng. There happened to be two ground traps there, both of which were pulled up. Two small lobsters could be vaguely seen crawling inside, trying to find an exit.
It seems that there is no harvest, so I want to share some with her.
"What are you doing?!" Jiang Cheng felt something was wrong and asked vigilantly.
The next second, Jiang Heng picked up his two traps without even opening them, and threw them outside with his long arms.
"Crash".
The two traps spread out in mid-air and when they fell they happened to be hanging on a big tree not far away.
"Fuck you!" Jiang Cheng's mind was about to explode. He didn't care for a moment that even if there were not many fish in the trap, it was still quite heavy and could be thrown so far. He cursed in frustration and said angrily: "Why did you throw my trap?! Didn't you come here to catch some shrimp?!"
Jiang Heng smiled at him: "Oh, sorry, is this your cage? I thought it was mine."
"Jiang Heng, do you really think I dare not touch you--" Jiang Cheng stretched out his hand to pull the person.
Just as his hand was about to touch Jiang Heng, he saw the other party grab his wrist with his backhand. His palm was not big, but extremely powerful. He easily stopped his movement and pulled hard, and kicked him in the butt, causing him to stagger two steps.
The water here was not flat to begin with, and Jiang Cheng lost his balance and fell directly into the water.
“Plop!”
A lot of water splashes!
Jiang Cheng:!
Without any defense or strength to resist, Jiang Cheng was left with nothing. He was completely dumbfounded and angry at the same time. He had completely lost his mind and just wanted to kill the little girl who dared to attack him.
He suddenly got up, wiped the water off his face, turned around and rushed towards Jiang Heng again.
This time he didn't even get close to her. He was only one meter away from her when the kick came towards her and hit her stomach.
"Bang!"
At that moment, Jiang Cheng felt that all his internal organs were severely damaged, and he fell backwards, dizzy.
It was only then that he suddenly realized - "How come you are so strong?!"
Jiang Heng smiled and said confidently, "I've practiced before, so you're still fighting?"
Jiang Cheng had a bad light, so Jiang Heng shone the flashlight on him, but she herself was always in the shadows, and only the outlines of her facial features could be seen through the reflection. When she smiled like this, the curve of her cheeks curved up a little, and Jiang Cheng inexplicably felt a little uneasy.
Damn it!
Why does this feel a bit weird?
I've never heard of Jiang Erqiu's nerd practicing before? And her strength doesn't match her size, does it?!
Jiang Cheng thought about it, and considering the current environment, his hair stood on end. He didn't dare to struggle anymore and just rolled to his feet. "No more fighting, no more fighting. You're so strong, I surrender. Okay?"
He laughed dryly, threw away the two discarded traps, and ran away.
I couldn't help but look back halfway.
There I saw a tall, thin girl with long hair standing by the pond, shining a flashlight in front of her. She was hidden in the darkest place, revealing only a hint of her outline, and behind her was the dark night sky...
Help!
Even more terrifying.
His legs were twitching so hard that he almost wanted to fly.
