Jin Suting said, "I was wondering why it smelled so good, it turned out to be the roast chicken from Zuixianlou!"
Then I remembered the first half of Xiao Hei's words and asked, "Did you ask for it, or did your friend get it for you?"
Cao Cao and Qin Er also have the same question mark face.
Xiao Hei lowered his head and said, "They are my former beggar friends. I promised my master that I would never beg again in this life, so I have no choice but to ask my friends for help."
Jin Suting: "Your friend seems really impressive, he even managed to get roast chicken from Zuixianlou! Normally, it costs five taels of silver per pound."
"So expensive!" Qin'er and Caocao exclaimed in surprise at the same time.
On weekdays, they eat with the young lady, and all the food is spent on silver...
Jin Suting was already drooling over the roast chicken and immediately said, "Let's start eating. I want that chicken leg!"
After breakfast, Jin Suting drank the medicine that Ming's mother sent her without any hesitation.
The medicine was not bitter. Maybe Ming's mother knew that she didn't like bitter medicine, so she added a can of honey. Jin Suting felt like crying after drinking the medicine.
These days, any little bit of grievance or emotion could overwhelm her fragile nerves and make her collapse.
Near noon, there were only four people left in Suxuanyuan - Jin Suting, Qin'er, Xiaohei and Caocao.
Sitting around the stone table, looking at the twenty-nine taels, nine hundred and ninety-two coins on the table, they fell into deep thought.
Xiao Hei: "Sister, are you sure this is all the money we have left?"
Jin Suting: "I'm absolutely certain. I turned the bed upside down last night and didn't find a single penny."
Tan Er: "Thirty taels is already a lot."
Cao Cao: "To be exact, it should be twenty-nine taels, nine hundred and ninety-two wen."
Jin Suting: "But the problem we need to solve now is how to make more money from money."
Xiao Hei: "How about we go buy some salt?"
Tan Er: "We don't have salt tickets. Selling illegal salt is a serious crime!"
Xiao Hei: "But buying salt is the fastest way to make money right now!"
Jin Suting: "No matter what, we can't break the law. We can't buy salt."
Cao Cao: "Then let's open a bun shop! We can make money every morning, and there are so many people walking around West Street, we can definitely make a lot of money."
Xiao Hei: "This won't work! It's too slow to make money, and we don't know how to make buns."
Jin Suting: "Xiao Hei is right. Besides, I'm afraid the buns I make might poison someone to death."
Jin Suting suddenly had an idea: "Why don't we open a flower shop?"
Tan Er: “…”
hastily:"……"
Xiao Hei: "Sister, what is a flower shop?"
Jin Suting found it a little difficult to express for a moment. A flower shop is for buying flowers.
But the flower shops here don’t open one, one reason is that the life cycle of flowers is short, the second reason is that flowers don’t last long and are difficult to maintain, and another reason is that people in Funing City basically don’t buy flowers.
If you want flowers, just pick them from the fields or the woods. Why spend money buying them from a flower shop?
Besides, you don’t have the skills of the old lady selling flowers to make beautiful wreaths.
Tan Er: "Miss, you'd better save your energy. Opening a flower shop is really not a good idea."
Cao Cao: "I also think it's inappropriate, and we only have one kind of winter jasmine in bloom right now."
Jin Suting was lying on the table, her computer was frozen.
"What should we do? We can't live on these twenty or so taels..."
Xiao Hei used his hands to shield himself from the sun: "The sun is so strong, I'm about to be scorched."
Cao Cao: "Yeah, it's just spring, and the sun is already this strong."
Tan Er: "It wasn't this big yesterday. It's really going to burn me to a crisp."
Xiao Hei: "Why don't we go inside and talk? It's really sunny outside."
Jin Suting suddenly got an idea. Just as everyone stood up and walked back, she suddenly shouted, "Why don't we open a barbecue stall?"
"Barbecue stall?" the three asked in unison. "What is that?"
After Jin Suting explained to them how delicious, popular and hot barbecue was, the four of them unanimously decided that it was feasible.
But Tan Er asked, "Miss, how did you know?"
Cao Cao and Xiao Hei also have the same question.
Jin Suting could only make up an excuse: "I read it in a book."
Books are omnipotent, and it is necessary to take them out to block the problem at this time.
Jin Suting: "Then let's start implementing it now!"
Tan'er, Xiaohei, and Caocao: "Understood!"
Jin Suting: "Then Tan'er will be in charge of the grill and the charcoal fire;"
Tan Er: "No problem!"
Jin Suting: "Xiao Hei will be in charge of buying the ingredients. I'll go with you later!"
Xiao Hei: "Okay!"
Jin Suting: "Cao Cao, I'm responsible for cleaning the barbecue stall and keeping the environment clean and tidy!"
Cao Cao: “Leave it to me!”
Jin Suting: "Okay, let's get started now. Xiao Hei and I will go buy some ingredients!"
——
Jin Suting and Xiao Hei came to the vegetable market and went straight to the vegetarian section.
Because we don’t have much money, we will start with vegetarian food.
So they spent five taels of silver to buy a series of vegetarian dishes including celery, coriander, lettuce, leeks, eggplant, cucumber, etc.
He spent another five taels of silver and bought several pounds of mutton, beef and pork.
Jin Suting also asked for a few small vegetable seedlings, intending to plant them in the Suxuan courtyard.
When they returned to Suxuanyuan, it was already afternoon. In order to ensure the freshness of the ingredients, they had to set up the barbecue stall the next day.
Qin'er also prepared the iron grid needed for the barbecue and found a whole bag of charcoal.
Hopefully they will have a good harvest tomorrow!
I still have twenty taels, nine hundred and ninety-two coins in my pocket, but the days of budgeting are quite tiring.
Jin Suting was sitting on a stone bench in the Suxuan courtyard. The afternoon sun was not as strong as before, and it felt warm on her body, making her want to sleep.
Suddenly a pig's face enlarged in her eyes, and she was so scared that she almost rolled off the chair.
"Helan Ruizhe!"
She was already very familiar with this pig face and called out his name the next second.
"It's me." Helan Ruizhe walked to her and smiled.
Jin Suting sat up straight, a little annoyed: "Next time you come..."
"Remember to knock?"
"Where is the door?!"
Jin Suting was a little annoyed by the interruption, but she continued, "Next time, don't wear this pig...er, mask. You don't look like a prince at all."
Helan Ruizhe looked as if he had suddenly realized something and said, "I was wondering why you were so mean to me. It turns out it's because of this pig face!"
"???" Jin Suting felt depressed, "I'm not the kind of person who looks at faces!"
"You shouldn't be short of money, Your Highness. Why don't you change to a more handsome mask?"
Helan Ruizhe pouted under his mask, "I just don't have any money."
Jin Suting suddenly had an idea: "How about I give you one?"
