Chapter 345 Getting rich starts with making salty food

After Jian Nan left, Hua Xiali sat on the bed in a daze. It seemed that Jian Nan's feelings for her were deeper than she thought. This marriage might be difficult to get a divorce, but what could she do?

Who made fate take her back to her first life?

She couldn't possibly love Huo Beixi in her heart but spend her whole life with Jian Nan, right?

This is unfair to Jiannan.

Jiannan is also a young man with good conditions and excellent talents. He deserves complete love and should be loved wholeheartedly, but that person will not be her, and she can't do it.

Jian Huadong woke up and saw her mother sitting on the bed in a daze, so she went over and hugged her, "Mom, are you awake?"

Hua Xiali nodded, "Xiaodong is awake too? He's awake, so he's tidied up and ready. In the morning, Xiaodong and grandma will play with his brother at home while mom and aunt go out to do some work. In the afternoon, I'll take Xiaodong to play with other kids. Is that okay?"

Jian Huadong nodded sensibly, "Mom, I can do that. I will listen to grandma."

As he said this, he threw back the quilt, got up, picked up his coat and started putting it on. Now that it was March the temperature had risen a lot, there was no need to wear as thick clothes as in winter.

After breakfast, Hua Xiali handed Jian Huadong to her mother, and set out with Hua Qiuli, pushing a wooden cart. They were going to the farmers' market to wholesale things, but it was inconvenient to take the bus, so they had to push the wooden cart themselves.

Hua Xiali thought about it and decided that he could make more money selling salty food. It was now 1996 and everyone's wages were rising, and prices were also rising. At this time, salty food could be sold for two yuan a portion. If he wholesaled two thousand kilograms of pork offal a day, he could make more than two thousand yuan, and tens of thousands a month.

But at the beginning, if it was just her and Hua Qiuli, they would definitely not be able to bring back 2,000 kilograms. At most, they could bring back 200 kilograms to try.

After deducting the cost of raising a 200-pound pig, I estimate that I can earn about 200 yuan, which means I can earn 6,000 yuan a month, which is pretty good.

After making money and increasing production, Hua Qiuli will see that she can make money at home and will definitely not think about working outside, because the salary outside is only three or four hundred yuan a month, and it is full of uncertainty and danger for a girl like her to work outside alone.

Hua Xiali took Hua Qiuli to wholesale packaging boxes, convenience bags, and seasonings, and then took Hua Qiuli to the farmers' market to buy pig offal. After buying everything, Hua Qiuli asked in confusion, "Second sister, where did you get the money?"

"Jian Nan gave it to me yesterday." Hua Xiali said embarrassedly. She didn't have a job, so where did she get the money? In fact, she had been relying on Jian Nan for money all these years, but she didn't wake up before. Now that she has woken up, she naturally can't go on like this. She has to make money, she has to rely on herself, and she has to pay Jian Nan back.

She doesn't even live with others, so how can she spend their money?

Now this is the early stage of starting a business, she has no money and no way.

Of course, Jiannan would have to pay for the child's support and living expenses, after all, the child was arranged for them by the author.

"Will my second brother-in-law be angry if I do this?" Hua Qiuli asked worriedly.

It seems that no one likes their daughter-in-law to use money to support her parents' family. If the Jian family knew about this, they would definitely be angry.

"What's the big deal? I can just return as much as I use. And I didn't use much today." Hua Xiali said, and then the two of them pushed the things on the wooden cart back home.

When we got home, we locked the gate to the courtyard, and everyone carried the things down, then drew water from the well to wash them.

The public well at the back has been vacant for many years and is probably not usable now. When Huo Beixi lived there, it was always used by Huo Beixi, but Huo Beixi has been dead for five years and probably no one has used this well in the past five years.

Hua Xiali, Hua Mu, and Hua Qiuli sat together cleaning pig offal. Jian Huadong was playing with his younger brother, but his younger brother couldn't play with him, so he was playing alone. But he was having a lot of fun.

There wasn't much offal today, so it didn't take particularly long to clean it. After cleaning it, everyone carried the offal to the kitchen. Hua Xiali scalded one pot in a large iron pot, and then scalded another pot in a double-handled pot on the stove, because one pot was used to boil water for bathing, and it couldn't be contaminated with oil, otherwise the boiled water would not be usable for bathing.

One pot and one stove were not enough to blanch more than 100 kilograms of pig offal, so Hua Xiali went to get the stoves from his third and fourth uncles' houses, so that he could blanch all the pig offal at once.

"Xia Li, what do you want to do by bringing so many pigs back from the water?" Hua's mother asked in confusion.

Because she was busy dealing with the pig offal, she didn't ask so many questions.

"Mom, in three hours you will know what I'm doing." Hua Xiali stuffed a few pieces of firewood into the bottom of the pot. Watching the fire burn more and more vigorously, she seemed to see hope.

She has been making money in every life by making salt. She has been doing this for several lives. She can be said to be very experienced now, so she can definitely make money now.

There was firewood at the bottom of the pot, so there was no need to keep an eye on it. Just stir it occasionally to prevent the salt from sticking to the pot. Three hours later, Hua Xiali opened the lid of the pot, and a strong fragrance wafted out, making everyone swallow their saliva. Even Jian Huadong ran over, stood by Hua Xiali's legs, and said with a longing look on his face, "Mom, it smells so good!"

"Do you want to eat?" Hua Xiali reached out and touched his face. "Stand aside first, so you don't get burned. I'll cut a small bowl for you to try later."

Hua Xiali asked Jian Huadong to stand further away, then picked out the brine from the pot and placed it on a clean dustpan, which would both drain the soup and cool it down.

After the temperature dropped, Hua Xiali called her mother and Hua Qiuli to cut the halogens, while she was responsible for packing the halogens. She put the halogens into takeaway boxes with chopsticks and then weighed them. When there was one pound, she would scoop a ladle of soup into the boxes so that others could heat them up and eat stewed dishes after buying them back.

Hua Xiali also gave Jian Huadong a small bowl and asked him to take it to the main room to eat. He also reminded him not to feed it to his younger brother as his younger brother could not eat it now.

Today, we wholesaled 200 kilograms of pig offal and brought it back. Apart from the ones for tasting at home, the rest were packed into 138 bags. Hua Xiali said as he packed them, "There are 138 bags in total. We use three boxes for tasting. Whenever someone comes to ask about the price, we let them taste one piece. The remaining 135 bags are for sale. Each bag costs 2 yuan, so we can make 270 yuan. After deducting the cost, we can make 170 yuan, which is not bad."

Hua Xiali said this with a look of anticipation on her face.

This is just the beginning. After a few days, when we add more manpower, we can earn 1,700 yuan a day.
