Chapter 259: Selling Salty Food
It's just that now he is not as generous as before, because before he always gave big gold bracelets and other things, but now he gives her bags. Hua Xiali can understand what he means. He probably thinks that they have been married for a short time and their love is not strong enough. If their love is strong enough, he can even give her his life.
He still wants a gradual process.
"Xia Li, you are lucky. You accidentally married a man who treats you well." Hua Chunli said with emotion.
Hua Xiali hugged Hua Chunli's arm and said in a low voice, "Sister, you are lucky to have met the best man in the world who treats you the best."
Hua Chunli quietly turned her head to glance at the man who was pushing the cart seriously, and couldn't help but smile. Yes, she was very lucky. If it weren't for Zhang Yongfeng, she would probably have married a casual man casually and lived a casual life.
They didn't arrive at the farmers' market until it was bright and people were walking hurriedly on the street. However, the market was very bustling at that time. Hua Xiali had been to the farmers' market before and had a look around, so he took Zhang Yongfeng and Hua Chunli directly to the pork stall that they had known about before.
On the first day of making salted dishes, we didn’t dare to take too much, so we took 300 kilograms of pork offal, and bought various seasonings, an electronic scale, take-away boxes, and plastic bags. Hua Xiali had already bought these things before, so we didn’t need to buy them now. After buying these things, they went back directly.
After returning home, Zhang Yongfeng pushed the wooden cart directly into the front yard and then locked the gate. The three of them carried the pig offal to the backyard together. Hua Xiali brought a wooden basin, took out the pig offal and put it in the basin. Then he took a wooden bucket to the public well to fetch water to deal with the pig offal.
Spiritual spring water was added to the public well, but no water was added to her own well because Hua Tiefeng was still at home and she didn't want Hua Tiefeng to take advantage of her. It was good for Hua Tiefeng to lie there like this, as he wouldn't be tortured if he couldn't move. Otherwise, as soon as his upper body could move, he would want to do something bad to Xie Yongfang.
Even if we want to fulfill their wish, it is not for Xie Yongfang to have an intact Hua Tiefeng, but a Hua Tiefeng that is paralyzed in bed like now.
After soaking the pig in well water, Hua Xiali went to call Hua Si Nian. She had worked with Hua Si Nian before and knew her character. She knew Hua Si Nian was a very good partner.
Calling Hua Si Nian, Hua Xia Li said as they walked, "Si Nian, today is only the first day we start doing this thing, and I don't know if we can make any money, so I'll give you one dollar a day, okay? Next month, two dollars a day, and the month after that, three dollars a day."
"Okay, why not? As long as I can make money." Hua Si Nian said happily. She was farming at home and didn't earn a penny.
Because the money from selling food was in her parents' hands, and they occasionally gave her a few cents for pocket money. She was already seventeen years old, and they still treated her like this. Working with Hua Xiali for thirty yuan a month, that was more than three hundred yuan a year, and this money was all hers!
Plus, Hua Xiali said that she would get two yuan a day in the second month and three yuan a day in the third month, so her income will increase in the future.
Taking Hua Si Nian back home, Hua Xia Li asked her to clean the pig offal with Hua Chun Li, while Hua Xia Li went to do other preparations. After everything was ready, after the pig offal was cleaned, Hua Xia Li put it in the pot and started to blanch it.
But there is an iron pot at home that is used to boil water and cannot be exposed to oil, so I can only use one pot and one stove to blanch both together.
"Brother-in-law, let's see if we can make money selling salty food today. If we can, you can build a stove in the backyard and get a few more large iron pots. This way, we can increase the production of salty food." After handing the task of lighting the fire to Zhang Yongfeng, Hua Xiali gave him an instruction.
Even if they will not do halogen business in the future, handing it over to Zhang Yongfeng can ensure their livelihood.
Zhang Yongfeng nodded, "Okay, I'll arrange everything."
After the pig offal was washed and dried, Hua Xiali let Hua Si Nian go home and asked her to come back in three hours, otherwise if she stayed here all the time, Hua Si Nian's parents would definitely ask about it.
Although Hua Si-nian's parents don't have any big problems and aren't as excessive as other parents, they still have a son. At this time, everyone is pinning their hopes on their son and will always make more plans for him.
The halides must be cooked for three hours to be flavorful, so Hua Xiali strictly cooks them for three hours. Then she takes out the halides and puts them in a basin. After a while, when the temperature has cooled down and it is no longer hot, she starts to cut the halides into bite-sized pieces. She then puts them in packaging boxes and weighs them. One box contains one kilogram of halides, plus a spoonful of soup. This way, when people who buy the halides go home and heat it up, they can put some vegetables in and stew them together.
Hua Xiali asked everyone to taste it, and everyone thought it was delicious.
Hua's mother was originally thinking of bringing a bowl to Hua Tiefeng, but Hua Chunli grabbed her hand and said, "Mom, have you forgotten what the doctor said? My dad needs a light diet, not one with heavy oil or salt."
Even though Hua Tiefeng insulted and tortured them every day, they were still family after all. No matter how angry they were, they still had to take care of him. After all, if anything went wrong, they were the ones to blame.
There is some spiritual spring water in it, and Hua Xiali was reluctant to let Hua Tiefeng drink it. Seeing Hua Chunli trying to stop him, Hua Xiali didn't say anything.
When Hua Si-nian came over three hours later, everyone was still dealing with the saltiness, so Hua Xia-li asked her to close the lid of the takeaway box, put the food into a plastic bag, tie a knot, and then put it in the basket.
Three hundred pounds of pig offal was finally packed into two hundred and five boxes, which means that the meat yield was only over sixty percent. However, if all of them can be sold, after deducting the cost of raw materials and seasonings, about one hundred yuan can be earned, which is not bad. After all, the quantity is not large. After all, more money should be earned when the production is increased later.
After the salty food was packed, Zhang Yongfeng, Hua Chunli, Hua Xiali and Hua Si Nian each carried a basket and walked to the gate of the community in the town to sell the salty food.
Because there were no cars available at that time, and it was their first time doing business and they had not made any money yet, they could not afford the luxury of calling a three-wheeled vehicle to come and pick them up.
The fare for three-wheeled motorcycles is based on the number of people, and everyone has to pay.
When they arrived in the town, every household was preparing for dinner. It was almost time for dinner, and many people could not help but buy a pound of it after smelling the delicious salty aroma and tasting it.
