The price he quoted was about what An Wanwan had expected.
I thought about it for a while.
An Wanwan said calmly, "Manager Tong, I haven't decided how much to make yet. So, today my third brother and I will pick them ourselves first. As for the rest, if we don't pick them ourselves, I'll have someone tell you in advance."
"good!"
Manager Tong had no objections.
Today was the first time picking, and An Wanwan didn't let An Miaomiao and the others pick too many.
Thirty catties of plums were picked.
Thirty-five jin of peaches were picked.
Ten watermelons were picked, each weighing an average of six pounds, for a total of sixty pounds.
It cost them 655 coins.
Back in town, An Wanwan realized that there wasn't much rock sugar left at home, so she and An Miaomiao went to buy a lot more. In addition, they ordered 525 jars from a place outside the city that sells jars.
Upon hearing that An Wanwan had ordered so much...
Anke was no longer calm: "Fourth Sister, do we really need so many jars?"
"Okay."
After An Wanwan said that, An Ke didn't say anything more.
Their oxcart was already full of jars, and An Wanwan was in a hurry to get them, so she asked the shopkeeper to send them twenty-five in a little while.
A small jar normally sells for four coins, but since they bought a lot, the shopkeeper here charged them three coins each. Five hundred and twenty-five jars would cost one thousand five hundred and seventy-five coins.
An Wanwan paid half the money, and would pay the rest after the goods were delivered to their shop.
Su Yueniang and the others hadn't slept; they were all sitting in front, waiting for them.
Seeing An Wanwan and the others return.
Apart from An Shi and An Dafu, everyone else came out to help move the things.
Jiang Xiaoyu stared intently, then froze on the spot: "Wanwan, why did you buy so much fruit?"
"You silly child, there's a reason why they bought so much last night."
After Liu finished speaking, Jiang Xiaoyu and the others started moving the items together.
There are many people.
In no time, all the fruit was moved into the backyard.
An Wanwan asked An Miaomiao to wash some for everyone to eat, and after tasting it, everyone praised it highly.
They sat and chatted for a short while.
Wang Ji's people came to deliver the jars, and as An Wanwan requested, they delivered twenty-five jars first.
The jar has arrived.
Before An Wanwan could even say to wash and hang them up, Su Yueniang and the others went to wash them on their own.
They'll wash it for you.
An Miaomiao didn't wash them; instead, she helped An Wanwan process the plums.
To make canned plums, you need to choose large, thick plums that are free from pests and diseases and have no damage.
Before picking.
An Wanwan emphasized these points, so the plums she bought were all large and fleshy, free from pests and diseases. As for damage, some were slightly damaged, but not many.
I made a quick selection.
An Wanwan and An Miaomiao started cutting plums.
Dozens of kilograms of plums.
It will take some time to cut it in half.
When Su Yueniang and the others finished washing the jar, they hadn't even finished cutting the meat yet, so they went to get a knife.
They have several knives in their shop, but not enough for everyone.
An Wanwan told them to remove the pits without knives, as it was a bit tiring to use their hands, so she got some bamboo strips to pick them out.
Many hands make light work.
The plums were packed up in less than 15 minutes.
Clean thoroughly.
Let it air out for a while.
After An Ke and the others poured the prepared plums into a clean wooden basin, An Wanwan took some salt from the kitchen, added a little salt, and started stirring.
"Wanwan, Mother is here."
Su Yueniang was worried that An Wanwan would get tired, so she washed her hands and told her to go and stay aside.
They picked two kinds of plums, one greenish-yellow and the other yellowish-red, so they mixed them separately.
Another pot.
It was mixed by Liu.
An Wanwan wasn't worried about them leaking the secret. Besides, she had signed a cooperation agreement with them beforehand, and if they leaked the secret of their shop, she would have to compensate them.
"After mixing, set it aside and wait for about 15 minutes before washing it."
