The newly opened tea egg market is indeed bright. My aunt’s stall only had three pancakes, but a pot of tea eggs was almost sold out.
The old customer was still standing in front of the empty bowl, peeling the eggs and talking to her slowly: "Hongmei! Look at you, you are making such delicious tea eggs, make two more bowls tomorrow! Who will eat this much? The eggs are so small!"
What else
The aunt was very calm - all the tea eggs on the market were like this. After all, eggs were bought by pound and sold by the piece, so wouldn't it be a big loss to buy a big egg
Song Hongmei then opened her mouth and began to act out her pity expertly:
"Oh, I would like to put in some big eggs, but how much have the prices of eggs increased now?"
"My niece's family sells this marinade package for 20 yuan each! I thought my family really couldn't eat so much, so I sold it. Do the math, did I make any money?"
Oh my! A package of ingredients costs twenty, that's really expensive!
But think about it, and taste the tea egg - although it is expensive, it is okay. It is still okay to buy one every now and then to satisfy your hunger.
But if you calculate it this way, the marinade package is 20 yuan, and the eggs are 50 cents each, so a pot of 30 or 40 eggs will cost 20 yuan, and there are also labor costs and firewood costs...
Even if there are 40 in a pot, that's only 60 yuan, right? At most, I can't make more than 10 yuan!
After everyone did the math, they actually believed Song Hongmei.
At this moment, he looked at the basin reluctantly: "How many of your ingredients do you have left? If not, sell me two!"
The eldest aunt thought: Only a fool would sell it!
First of all, the water-mixed sauce was not used to cook forty tea eggs, but forty-nine - because the three of them couldn't resist and ate three eggs each in the morning, and the eldest aunt thought it was too extravagant, so she quickly cooked nine more eggs and added them...
It seems like there will be no problem cooking fifty tomorrow.
Tomorrow, tomorrow we must not eat eggs at home! Eating too many eggs will increase cholesterol. What kind of family eats eggs like this?!
My aunt has never been so extravagant in her life!
Oh, I was told that Tan Tan’s things couldn’t be given away because their food expenses would exceed the limit. Fortunately, this can be sold!
In addition, his egg pancakes sell quite well. The eggs are sold at wholesale price and are small in size, so they cost less than 50 cents each, 40 cents is about right.
Also, the marinade package was given by Tan Tan, it’s a no-cost business.
Most importantly…
The eldest aunt was calculating quickly in her mind and making pancakes with her hands all the time. After buying the tea eggs, everyone was still not satisfied and came to buy her egg pancakes.
At this moment, there were five or six people waiting in front.
Originally, her business was mediocre. Although she made some money, it was not outstanding. But in the first half of the year, she introduced her seventh cousin to Tan Tan. The seventh cousin could not bear the taste of his own pickles and even gave her several special methods of pickling pickles!
Although it is a bit troublesome, it saves a lot of money!
There are also many more customers.
And this morning, this wave attracted quite a few people again!
So, even though this marinade package doesn’t make much money, my aunt will definitely not sell it.
She just said loudly: "Hurry up, my niece only gave me 20 of these marinade bags, and I won't sell them anymore after they are sold out."
"Hey, you!" Another regular customer nearby complained: "This seasoning bag smells so good, if you buy more, we will definitely buy it every time you use it to cook eggs in the future. Why don't you have any business sense?"
My aunt also raised her voice: "Am I crazy?! I bought a bag of marinade for 20 yuan, and I made less than 10 yuan after working hard to cook this pot. What kind of business am I doing?"
Everyone: …That seems to be the case.
But they still refused to give in: "Then ask our niece where to buy the marinade package? I'll buy two and cook them at home."
Although tea eggs taste good, they can only be so good. It’s enough to buy two to satisfy your craving, but not more.
The eldest aunt shook her head: "It's out of stock. They said that the old customers didn't buy it before."
All right!
Everyone sighed.
We were so engrossed in the conversation that we were too lazy to move and had to continue queuing to buy egg pancakes.
Aunt: How can this be a sauce bag? It's clearly a fortune bag!
…
At this moment, Xin Jun also climbed up from the bed in pain.
Just yesterday, after several hours of high-speed rail travel and transfers, he finally arrived home at two o'clock in the afternoon.
It just happened that the farm house lunch was almost over. Luckily, I didn’t have to do any work and was just busy chatting with my parents about their well-being.
There's nothing to ask.
His mother looked at his fair skin and increasingly rosy complexion, and couldn't say anything against her will, such as "you've become thinner and more haggard." She even said sourly, "Where did you get this? You're so juicy!"
Xin Jun laughed: "Didn't I tell you that I'm a teacher? My schedule is very regular, and I eat with everyone, so I must look good."
Mother Xin still thought he was a teacher in some school, and now she hurriedly asked, "Oh! Your school cafeteria is pretty good. Do teachers have to pay for meals? Are you sure you can get a permanent job next year? I heard that there are not many teaching positions now, does it cost money?"
What can I say? Given Qiao Qiao's current condition, it depends on how long Song Tan and his family will continue to teach her.
But Xin Jun has made up his mind. Even if he can't be a tutor, he can still change his job!
Apart from anything else, when it comes to going up the mountain to do odd jobs, delivering goods and running errands, he is definitely more diligent than Zhang Yanping.
But the words spoken at this moment were humble:
"I don't know yet. After all, I'm still in the probation period and I'm not that familiar with the people in the school yet. I'll ask around first."
In the eyes of parents, teachers, doctors and civil servants are always the best jobs. The only drawback is that -
"Didn't you break up with Qianqian? How come you're looking for a job in her city? Can't we work in our own city? It's closer."
"Also, the things that the farm you inquired about have sent back in the past few months are good, but they can't be sold in our farmhouse. The quantity is too small and too expensive!"
"Now the customers are still talking about spring wild vegetables. I'll go to the farm and discuss cooperation."
Ah this.
Xin Jun thought: If you go over there, then I’ll be finished, right
At this moment, he took out a confident posture to deceive people:
"Mom, don't worry, the cooperation project has been discussed. They have just launched a tea egg marinade package, and I took great pains to grab a few hundred to test the waters."
"The 12,000 yuan I asked you for before was for this. When it arrives tomorrow, try it on. It will definitely fit!"
First of all, they have free-range eggs at their farm house. With the sauce packet, it is normal for a tea egg to cost a few dollars more.
Furthermore, the marinade bags are light, durable in storage and easy to transport, which makes them suitable for this purpose.
The most important thing is, judging from the appearance of leaves all over Song Tan’s yard, there is an adequate supply of marinade packets!
It is definitely not like wild vegetables, because the quantity is really not enough and it is troublesome to preserve them, so we only have time to collect a few thousand kilograms and give away one portion per table.
