The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

Nanny Rong can be said to be versatile, and the next day she made mooncakes with two kinds of fillings for them.

Red bean paste mooncakes and salted egg yolk mooncakes.

Yan Yu looked at the moon cakes that looked like sesame seed cakes, and fell into deep thought.

Li Xuemei was very calm: "It's probably rare for you. Your father and I both ate this kind of food when we were young. Although it looks ordinary, the taste is the same. If you don't believe me, try it."

Yan Yu took a bite, the bean paste was sweet but not greasy, the salted egg yolk was salty and fragrant, the crust was thin and crispy, regardless of the appearance, it was a sincere work.

To make such delicious mooncakes with limited materials, no one except Rongmao can do it.

Yan Yu felt more and more that selling mooncakes was reliable.

Such a delicious moon cake, such a rough appearance, a bit wronged!

Uncle Qi Wu is not here, how to solve the mold problem?

As expected, Yan Yu's eyes fell on Mao Mao who was stretching by the door.

Show a malicious smile.

As soon as Li Xuemei saw her, she knew what she was up to.

"Uncle Ni is at home, how do you explain it to him when you make mooncake molds?"

"It's fine if it's rough." Yan Yu didn't care about it: "Just say that Dad cut it with a knife for nothing, and it needs to be round, and the patterns and characters are not corrected."

Li Xuemei thought about it, and felt that it would be okay if there was only one circle.

Yan Yu quickly found a piece of material of suitable size from Uncle Qi's wood, and asked Maomao to cut out a circle for her.

Then hollow out the middle part, of course it is necessary to deliberately rough.

The finished product appeared quickly.

Li Xuemei: ...

Yan Yu: ...

It looks good from the outside, but the inside is too rough. The mooncakes made out of such molds are probably crumpled and no one wants to buy them.

"Little two."

Hearing her uncle calling her in the yard, Yan Yu had an idea and took the mold out of the kitchen.

"Uncle, look at this." She blocked the uncle's mouth at the right time.

This time is exactly the time when uncle is going to give them lessons.

Thinking that she hadn't arrived for a long time, the uncle came looking for her.

"Do you want to make mooncakes?" Yan Huaiwen took it over, seeing the uneven mold inside, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Father made it, and he went out before it was ready. Uncle, the mooncakes made by Mrs. Rong are delicious. Let's make more and sell them. They will definitely sell for a lot of money."

Yan Huaiwen smiled knowingly, the fact that Xiao Er loves money is really like God's blessing.

"Since it was done by Miss Rong, how can I sell it at will." He immediately refused, and said: "It's okay to eat at home. If Miss Rong wants to earn some money with this, you can allow her a few days off."

Yan Yu: ...

Forget about this crop.

In the uncle's eyes, Nanny Rong is a hired helper.

The craftsmanship of making moon cakes can be profitable, but it should not be profitable for the Yan family.

Yan Yu asked naively: "Our family supplies the materials, and my mother and sister-in-law will help. Will we sell together in partnership? Just like Dad and Uncle Qi."

Yan Huaiwen: Sometimes it is not a good thing for children to know too much.

"You can do the math yourself, remove the capital, share the rest with Miss Rong, how much is left?

If the moon cakes cannot be sold, you will have to pay. "

It's enough to deceive the child with such words, but it won't fool her.

She showed her small teeth and smiled brightly: "Then you promised, uncle, I'll go and tell mother and lady Rong..."

Without waiting for the uncle to respond, Yan Yu ran back to the kitchen, told her mother and Nanny Rong the good news, and then flew to the study like a little swallow to tell the elder sister.

The big girl is honest, she heard that her father agreed to sell moon cakes, so she hurriedly packed up her textbooks and other things, and rushed to the kitchen to help.

Yan Huaiwen: ...

Forget it, since they want to do it, just do it.

He looked at the mold in his hand, found a stone that was convenient, rinsed it off, and went back to the study.

Use a stone to grind the unevenness bit by bit...

"Uncle is right. It was the first time we sold mooncakes, and we were afraid that people would not recognize them and buy ours." Yan Yu rolled her eyes and had another idea.

She picked out two bean paste and two salted egg yolks from the mooncakes made by Rongmao, and cut them into small pieces.

Put it on a plate, and don't forget to cover it with a curtain.

"Mother, big sister, you guys are busy first, I'm going to give the villagers a taste of our mooncakes."

Before Da Ya could react, my sister went out.

"Auntie, Miss Rong's mooncakes are so good, we can definitely sell them." What Da Ya actually wanted to say was that she didn't need to ask the villagers to help her taste it. She just ate it, and it was obviously very delicious.

Li Xuemei: "Leave her alone, let's dig the egg yolk first."

Her daughter's little idea is very easy to guess, and she has to sell it in the village first.

That's what Yan Yu planned.

Give the villagers a taste first, and order some if they feel good.

It's called a pre-sale.

In this way, they make batches every day, so there will be no backlog and waste.

As for the cost that the uncle mentioned, hehe, it's all in her heart.

Moon cakes are a seasonal food. If you sell too little, you will not be able to pay for the labor. If you sell too much, you are afraid that no one will buy it. How to set the price is very important.

Yan Yu felt that if she wanted to do a good job in the mooncake business in the past few days, she might have to go to Yongning.

One is to see how much the mooncakes in Yongning City cost, and the other is to buy some paper for wrapping the mooncakes.

It's not good to have nothing at all, and sell it directly to others, so what's the point?

After walking half a circle in the village, Yan Yu didn't insist on trying mooncakes for the whole distance.

Selling it to the villagers, she naturally wouldn't charge a high price, just add some cost.

Red bean paste mooncakes cost four coins, and salted egg yolk mooncakes cost five coins. You can buy as many as you want.

Picked up some orders quickly.

Yan Yu returned home happily.

As soon as she entered the door, people who bought mooncakes followed behind.

People in the village don't pay much attention to those empty ones, they think mooncakes like sesame seed cakes are good, no matter what they are, as long as they are delicious.

Yan Yu's moon cake business opened immediately.

The red bean paste mooncakes sell better one after another, but the salted egg yolks are not as good. Most of them are bought by people who take a piece back to give their family a taste.

Yan Yu collected the money with a grin and brought mooncakes for others.

After all the mooncakes made by Nanny Rong were sold out, she turned around and saw the uncle who had been standing there for some time in the yard.

"Look, uncle, there are a lot of copper coins!" She patted the money bag, and the copper coins inside rattled.

Yan Huaiwen nodded, and gave her the things in his hand.

"I'm going out for a while."

Yan Yu looked at the mooncake mold in her hand that had changed drastically.

Blinked, blinked again.

"Mother, elder sister, Miss Rong, look at the mold uncle made for us!"

I saw that the rough moon cake mold was not only polished and smooth inside, but also engraved with a few words - the moon is full and people are reunited.

Immediately, Nanny Rong made the red bean paste, wrapped it into a circle with cake skin, and printed it in the mold.

when!

When the mold is buckled on the panel, it is uncovered at once.

Five clear characters appeared on it.

Nanny Rong was very satisfied and made a lot of them in succession.

When new mooncakes are baked.

The skin brushed with egg wash has a slightly burnt color, and the handwriting becomes clearer. Compared with the previous biscuits, it is completely reborn.
