"Next time, if she comes to your shop to sell medicine again, you should raise the price a little, but not too much, so that she won't get suspicious. A 30% or 40% increase will be fine."
After he finished speaking, seeing that Su Chaiyu did not respond for a long time, he glanced at him lightly, only to see that he was staring at him in surprise.
"Did you hear it?"
"I heard it, I heard it." Su Chaiyu responded hastily. After a while, he couldn't help asking, "Xingzhou, are you really interested in that Miss Shen?"
Gu Xueting glanced at him with a half-smile, and asked instead of answering: "What do you think?"
I said, you must have fallen in love with her. I didn't expect that you didn't like so many noble ladies in the capital, but you actually fell in love with a female doctor in this small place.
And his face was disfigured, the taste was really unique.
But no matter how much he thought about it, he didn't dare say it out loud.
* Shen Yizi returned home, packed up the things he had bought, picked out a box of cakes, a bag of brown sugar, and a piece of cloth, asked Yichang to look after Qingbao, and came to Li Jingeng's house with some gifts.
After looking at the child and talking to Yang Cuifen about parenting for a while, he stated his purpose and talked about asking Li Jingeng to help build a house for her.
Li Jingeng is a bricklayer and has a group of brothers under him. They usually make a living by building houses for others and taking on some projects.
That is what is commonly known as a contractor.
So when Shen Yizi decided to build a house, he thought of him first.
Li Jingeng agreed immediately, "No problem, leave the house to me, I promise to make it beautiful for you!"
Shen Yizhi nodded: "I am relieved to leave it to you. Recruiting workers and purchasing building materials will also be left to you. How many workers to recruit, what materials to buy, and how much money will be needed, you can estimate it yourself first, and then tell me, and I will pay you.
"Also, the workers' daily wage is 40 wen, including lunch and dinner. You can tell them this when you recruit workers."
Li Jingeng was surprised and said, "Doctor Shen, isn't this salary too high? And it also includes two meals... I think thirty cents is enough, including lunch."
Shen Yizhi smiled, "If the wages are high and the food is adequate, everyone will be motivated, right? However, I also hope that you will be more careful when recruiting workers. Those who like to be lazy and play tricks will not be accepted. Do you understand?"
Li Jingeng nodded heavily, "Don't worry, I will definitely not let those freeloaders in!"
"By the way, this is the blueprint of the house I drew. You can take a look at it first. If you don't understand anything, feel free to ask me."
Li Jingeng took the drawing she handed over and was stunned at the first sight. The drawing was so realistic, it looked like the real thing.
The dimensions are also noted next to it.
It was the first time that Li Jingeng saw such clear and concise drawings, and he couldn't help but be fascinated at the first sight.
When I came to my senses, Shen Yizi had already left.
When he caught a glimpse of the gift she had brought, he immediately grabbed it and chased after her, refusing to accept it.
Shen Yizhi's face darkened: "These are not for you, but for Cuifen and the child to replenish their bodies. If you don't accept them, I will be angry."
"this……"
"What is this? Take it back. Okay, you don't have to send it off. Go back now."
Li Jingeng had no choice but to accept it.
Shen Yizhi went to Aunt Li's house again, but found that only Li Chuntao was at home.
Yes, it’s already mid-afternoon, and Aunt Li and Li Dachun are probably working outside.
"Chun Tao, tell Auntie not to cook dinner tonight and come to my house for dinner. Remember?"
"Okay, sister!" Li Chuntao responded happily, "Would you like to sit for a while, sister?"
"No, Qingbao is still at home, and I'm worried." Shen Yizi waved his hand.
After returning home, Shen Yizhi played with Qingbao for a while and then began to prepare dinner.
She planned to make sugar-braised pig's head, braised pig's trotters, crucian carp and tofu soup, fish-flavored shredded pork, ham and old tofu, stir-fried pea sprouts, and a mutton pot. As for the cold dish, she would use the braised pork bought from an old brand in the county.
She had tasted that braised pork once, and compared to it, all the braised pork she had eaten before paled in comparison. This time, she queued for an hour and bought several hundred kilograms at one time, buying out all of his braised pork.
There is no purchase limit at the moment. It is up to the customer to decide how much to buy.
Even if others like to eat it, they would not buy so much at one time. But Shen Yizi has a space, so he is not worried that the braised meat will go bad if left in it.
Naturally, we should take the opportunity to store more.
This lavish purchase shocked the store owner and caused the people queuing behind him to have nothing to buy.
But Shen Yizi doesn't care about that.
She seldom comes to the county town often, so naturally she wants to buy enough at one time.
The pig head used for the sugar-braised pig head is from the wild boar she had caught before. She had coveted this pig head for a long time but had never had the chance to cook it. Now is the perfect time to stew it.
She had already cleaned the pig hair before, so she just had to do it now.
Put the pork head into the casserole, put a layer of dried seafood, bamboo shoots, pea sprouts, etc. on the bottom of the pot, then add a gauze bag filled with various spices, add soy sauce, wine, ginger, scallion segments, and water, cover tightly, and simmer slowly in the stove.
Don't worry about it from now on.
Afterwards, she boiled the soup for the mutton pot.
The rest of the dishes were not so complicated to make, and she made them step by step.
It was almost time for dinner when Aunt Li and her family came over.
Shen Yizhi greeted them, "Aunt, Chuntao, and Brother Dachun, you are here? The meal is almost ready, please sit down for a while and have some snacks."
Aunt Li kept waving her hands: "Don't worry about it. As for me, it's enough to have Qingbao by my side."
She immediately came to Qingbao and said, "Qingbao, do you miss grandma? Look what grandma brought you."
She took out a small and cute tiger-head hat and put it on Qingbao.
Li Dachun walked around the yard, found a job chopping wood, and started working silently.
Li Chuntao went into the kitchen and helped Shen Yizi.
"Sister, it smells so good! I can eat three big bowls of rice just by smelling this!"
Shen Yizhi was cutting marinated meat, and he pinched a piece of it with his hands and fed it to her, "What are you eating? You can eat as much vegetables as you want later! Is it delicious?"
Li Chuntao kept nodding her head: "It's delicious! It's so delicious that I'm about to cry!"
Shen Yizhi put the braised meat on a plate and instructed her to take it out.
Fortunately, she changed to a bigger round table, otherwise so many dishes would not be able to fit.
The two main dishes, mutton hotpot and pig's head stewed with sugar, were placed in the middle, while the others, such as braised pig's trotters and crucian carp and tofu soup, were placed in a circle.
Shen Yizhi also placed a separate three-layer shelf next to it, specifically for placing thinly sliced mutton. She cut several large plates of it. There were also some vegetables and mushrooms, all washed and placed in a juicy manner, ready to be added as needed.
