Chapter 83: Sausage Business
"They...they stole my hen. The hen originally belonged to us!"
Old Mrs. Liu was questioned by Pei Yian and Ji Zhisui, and her mind was confused. She had always been the best at quarreling, but she really didn't know how to refute. Stealing... I don't know why she thought of this.
Ji Zhisui sneered. She had never seen such a shameless person.
"Old Lady Liu, not only are you slandering us, but now you're also trying to turn the tables? You compensated us with this hen, and the neighbors on North Street can all testify to that."
Pei Yian bowed and said, "Ye Zhou, my family has a feud with Old Lady Liu. She must be deliberately looking for trouble. As a result of this incident, our restaurant has lost a lot of business. I'd like to trouble you to make her compensate for the losses."
Zhou Yayi looked at the crowd of people watching the fun around the restaurant and agreed with what Pei Yian said.
Old lady Liu should really pay compensation for delaying other people's business.
Ji Zhisui looked at Pei Yian with admiration. He was afraid that his words would directly touch Old Lady Liu's heart, but she liked this style very much.
When faced with a shameless person like Old Lady Liu, it is best to teach her a lesson by making her bleed profusely.
Ji Zhisui snorted as he watched Old Lady Liu leave dejectedly.
Old Mrs. Liu has suffered a lot, and I'm afraid she won't cause any trouble in the near future. She can finally have some peace and quiet for a while.
Old Lady Liu didn't get any benefits this time. Instead, she suffered a setback. Not only was she taught a lesson by the yamen runner Zhou, she also had to pay 10 or 50 coins in compensation.
She returned home covered in dust and dirt. Old Liu waited for a long time at home, but there was no movement from the other side. Moreover, the old woman came back empty-handed this time.
A bad premonition came over him, and his face fell. "What's going on? Where's the silver? Where's the old hen?"
Old Mrs. Liu shook her head and didn't dare to say that she had spent money. In order to prevent her family from knowing, she deducted the money from her own small treasury. She only vaguely said that she had not gained any benefits from the Pei family.
"Idiot! What are you doing!" They had planned this matter very well, but who knew that the old woman was so useless and couldn't even do such a small thing.
Old man Liu was so angry that he took out his usual pipe and smashed it on Old Lady Liu's forehead.
Old Mrs. Liu didn't dare to dodge and just took the blow head-on.
She was in a bad mood herself. She didn't get any benefits and lost her private money, but she didn't dare to contradict Old Man Liu, so she could only endure his anger silently.
Hearing the noise outside, Liu hid in the room holding Erya. Her mother-in-law didn't get any benefits at the Pei family today, and she was afraid that she would not be in a good mood next time, so she would not tell her where Daya was.
Liu thought of her husband again. After all, he was Daya's biological father. Maybe he could know where his daughter had gone...

"We've been looking all over the street, but we can't find the young lady selling burritos!"
"Yes, are you no longer doing business in Qizhou County?"
"Forget it, let's go into the restaurant and order something to eat first."
As they were talking, they walked into a restaurant and looked around the menu. They were a little surprised and said, "I have never seen the food here before."
"Wait, Marco, is this a burrito?"
Ma Mazi looked in the direction the people were pointing and saw the word "burrito" written on the menu. The people looked at each other, and joy appeared in their eyes.
Is this what it means to search for something everywhere but never find it, yet finally get it without any effort?
They searched the street for a while but couldn't find the lady selling burritos. Now they ran into her while eating at a random restaurant. This was simply fate!
"Boss, did you sell burritos on the street before?
"Yes, sir, would you like some burritos? Our burritos are delicious."
"Give us brothers three burritos each. Oh, and where's the lady who makes the burritos? I want to talk to her."
Ma Mazi and others did not need to stop at Qizhou County this time, but the sausage was said to be extremely delicious, with a long shelf life, good taste and good with rice. For a period of time, it was sold for one or two taels of silver per piece, which made them curious and excited.
You have to know that when they sail, they often stay on the sea for ten days or half a month. The pickled meat and fish taste so-so, and they are tired of eating them. But the delicious sausage is still a new thing, and only a young lady in Qizhou County can make it.
After a few people discussed it, they changed the route and passed through Qizhou County, just to meet the young lady who could make sausages.
Hearing that this person was looking for Sui Niang, Pei Yian became cautious and said, "I am the owner of this restaurant. If you have any questions, you can come to me."
"Shopkeeper, do you have any Chinese sausages for sale? We'd like to buy some."
"Yes! I heard that sausage is very delicious and can be preserved for a long time."
"Sausage..." Pei Yian recalled that Sui Niang had made a lot of sausage for Xiao Qihang before. From the words of these people, he could probably infer a general idea.
These people are ship merchants who travel all over the country. This time they came to Sui Niang specifically to buy sausages. This might be a business opportunity.
After knowing the other party's purpose, Pei Yian informed Ji Zhisui of the news.
Ji Zhisui had never expected that the sausages he made casually would have such an effect, and that people would come to him specifically for it. The path he had envisioned was slowly being realized.
She might start a sausage business and sell it to traveling merchants.
After handing over the cooking task to Mrs. Pei, Ji Zhisui came to the merchant.
Several ship merchants knew that the young lady was very young, but they did not expect her to look like this. She looked like she had just reached the age of 15.
It's amazing that she can make such delicious food!
After everyone was amazed, they started talking about business. Ma Mazi said straight to the point: "Young lady, we came to Qizhou County this time just for the sausages. I wonder how much stock you have on hand? We want all of them."
"Yes, yes, the more the better." Someone agreed. Not only can these sausages be eaten by oneself, but they can also be sold to others. It's a profit no matter how you look at it.
Ji Zhisui was a little embarrassed: "I don't have much sausage in stock at the moment. If you want, I can make it now."
"That's fine, but young lady, we're leaving in two days. Can you get it done in a few days?"
Ji Zhisui nodded, "Of course."
She may have to stay up late recently because the restaurant needs to be open and make money, so she can't fall behind. Now these sausages are needed urgently. Although it is very hard work, she doesn't want to give up this big order.
After we finished talking about the things, the dishes were served one after another.
Ma Mazi looked at the table full of delicious food, and his stomach started to growl in protest.
