"...Brother, is there a good place to quickly dispose of these chickens and ducks? In the past few years, everyone was scrambling to raise pigs, and after the price dropped, they scrambled to raise chickens and ducks. As a result, this year, even eggs are not that expensive. Everyone has piles of three-yellow chickens, all of which have been sold, and there are also chicks."

"I'm worried too. I have too many chickens and ducks at home. In previous years, I would have sold them long ago, but now... Sigh..."

…

The two did not have much conversation, but Su Zhiruan grasped useful information from it. In small towns and rural areas, especially in the 1980s when information was not so developed, farmers' breeding would sometimes be affected by supply and demand. This year, seeing that raising cattle and sheep was profitable, next year everyone would raise cattle and sheep, and the number of people raising other livestock would decrease. In the second year, when the livestock were sold, they found that there was an oversupply in the market, and the price would drop.

This year, it's the chickens and ducks' turn.

Su Zhiruan gradually had a new idea in her mind. In this era, fast food brands have just been introduced from abroad. If she starts from a small town and expands step by step, the profit of this founding store can be said to be the greatest.

She was walking in the market and asked about the price of chickens and ducks this year. "Uncle, how much is a whole chicken?"

"I'll give you a discount, two yuan per chicken." When the uncle selling whole chickens saw someone wanting to buy chickens, he immediately gestured at the chickens and hurriedly tried to sell them, "Look, they are all three-yellow chickens, delicious and not expensive. I'll pick a fat one for you."

"Wasn't it 2.5 yuan a chicken last year? Why is the price so much lower this year?" Su Zhiruan asked casually while selecting chickens. "They all look good and well-raised."

The uncle shook his head. "Alas, things are different now. This year, we can't sell chickens at all. There are too many. I sell them for two yuan. They are all processed whole chickens. If I sell them alive in wholesale, it will be even cheaper. If you take a few more, I can give you a discount."

"So cheap?" Su Zhiruan was surprised. He didn't expect the price to drop so much.

"Yes, there are too many people raising chickens and ducks. If we talk about the cheapest meat now, it must be chicken and duck meat. Even the price of eggs has dropped a lot. I guess many people's plans have been ruined today."

…

Su Zhiruan walked around twice and gained a lot of information.

In previous years, the market price of a raised chicken was about two yuan and a half to three yuan. Some fluctuations were normal. But this year, a basically clean chicken only costs two yuan. If it is sold wholesale, the price can be as low as one yuan and fifty cents, or even lower. If it is sold wholesale as a live chicken, the price can even be as low as one yuan and twenty!

However, the chicken that costs one dollar and two cents is either too small or too old, and the taste is definitely different from that of slightly more expensive chicken.

Su Zhiruan looked for a long time, and finally picked up three chickens, preparing to pick up his younger brothers and sisters at the school gate, and also give one to Qin Lianqi.

* However, after the tutoring session, Qin Lianqi did not accept the chicken.

This was also within Su Zhiruan's expectations, so she did not force him and planned to research and develop it before inviting him to taste it.

Walking on the road, the two children looked at the chicken in Su Zhiruan's hand, and Zhiying asked curiously, "Sister, are you going to stew the chicken today?"

"Great! There's chicken to eat! Great!" Zhishu cheered.

Su Zhiruan has made a lot of money during this period, and the family's living standards have improved visibly. Before, even vegetable dumplings made from bran were considered very good food at home, but now, the family can even eat meat every few days.

Before, Zhishu and Zhiying's two children looked pale and thin, and you could only feel their skeletons when you held them in your arms. But during this period, because they are in school and their diet has improved a lot, they can eat enough meat and eggs, so now the two children look much rounder and whiter than before.

Su Zhiruan has also changed a lot. When she first came to this world, her clothes were tattered, her hair was dry, her skin was sallow, and she was as thin as a firewood stick. After eating and drinking for a period of time, she is now very eye-catching when she walks on the street. Even several families who looked down on them before are testing Li Meihua in both open and covert ways, wanting to propose marriage.

But now, Su Zhiruan is Li Meihua's backbone. Whenever anyone asks her, Li Meihua tells her to let her eldest daughter make the decision herself. Now is a new era and arranged marriages are not allowed. Many women with sons have begun to hint at Su Zhiruan in both explicit and covert ways, and some even want their sons to seduce Su Zhiruan directly.

Su Zhiruan's only focus at the moment is making money. Not to mention that Qin Lianqi is her mission target, just in terms of appearance and personality, no one can compare to Qin Lianqi.

She carried the chicken and asked Zhishu and Zhiying to follow behind her. She smiled and said, "Today I will make a new way to eat it for you. I'm sure you have never eaten it before."

"Ah?" The two children swallowed at the same time when they heard the new way to eat chicken.

Su Zhiruan looked at their expressions and wanted to laugh. She pretended to be serious and started to talk about the recipe. "The method is very simple. Cut the chicken into pieces and put it in a bowl with seasoning to marinate it. Mix eggs, flour, starch and salt. Let each piece of chicken be coated with egg liquid. Alternate between high and low heat. After frying, dip it in the sauce. Your mouth will be filled with the aroma of oil and meat. The chicken is smooth and tender, and the aroma is overflowing. It is tender and delicious. Do you want to try it?"

After she finished speaking, the two children's faces were filled with desire. They raised their heads, slurped their saliva at the same time, their eyes full of anticipation, and then said in unison, "Yes!"

Su Zhiruan smiled and said, "You have finished your homework, so go back and help. This way you can eat faster."

Zhishu and Zhiying nodded heavily at the same time.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Hearing that they could eat delicious food, the three of them quickened their pace along the way. The two children were very well-behaved and offered to carry a chicken each, otherwise Su Zhiruan would be tired.

But Su Zhiruan did not agree. The two children were already carrying a schoolbag each, and she could carry three chickens.

After returning home, Li Meihua learned about Su Zhiruan's novel idea, and she enthusiastically helped with the preparations.

The family of four was busy in the kitchen for a while, all four of them laughing and talking, but in the end they worked together to complete all the preparations.

When Su Zhiruan brought out the fried chicken, Zhishu and Zhiying, not to mention the two children, even Li Meihua swallowed hard. She looked shocked, "This, this smells too good!!"

"Try it. It's my first time making it, so I don't know how it will taste." Su Zhiruan estimated that the effect should be okay. Before she bound the system to enter the fast-travel world, she worked as a worker and cooked for herself every day. She thought she was a good cook. She had tried fried chicken before, and she had even coated it with breadcrumbs. It was not difficult to make, but today was just a preliminary attempt, so Su Zhiruan did not make breadcrumbs.

Although the two children had been impatient in their hearts, they had not forgotten Su Zhiruan and Li Meihua.

"Eldest sister and mother eat first."
