Chapter 312 Beggar (Fourth)(1/2)
After a refreshing supper, An Youyou fell asleep actively with her infinite expectations for the bluestone brick house.
In Qinhuai's view, the only one in this team is An Youyou who has expectations for bluestone brick and tile houses.
Jiang Weiguo obviously had a spacious family before, and it was not so rare to live in a bluestone brick and tile house. The other 12 younger brothers were purely unaware of what bluestone brick and tile houses were. These 12 younger brothers may have never lived in a wooden house, but only lived in a earthen-breasted house.
Facing people who are really poor, showing off their wealth is useless. Talking about bluestone brick and tile houses with these beggars is just like talking about braised shark fins, arhats and shrimps, Buddhas jump over the wall, and how delicious are boiled water cabbage, because it is too far away and has never seen it at all, it has exceeded cognition.
It is possible to swallow your saliva by saying roast chicken and meat buns, but it is impossible to imagine something more advanced.
The beggars have only seen the bluestone brick and tile houses and have never been in. In their opinion, they are all houses that can shelter from the wind and rain. The winter is warmer, and they can't imagine any more things.
Early in the morning of the second day, An Youyou did not wait for the younger brothers to hold the mud before he woke up. Instead, he opened his eyes very actively and got up the first time and woke Jiang Weiguo up.
"Wake up, wake up, wake up, thirteenth, it's dawn, let's go rent a house!"
Jiang Weiguo was woken up by An Youyou, his face was filled with whether you are sick. He didn’t want to rent a house two days ago, but now he is the most active in renting a house.
But the boss woke up, so the younger brothers naturally couldn't sleep. Xiaojiu was very active and wanted to dig mud for An Youyou, but An Youyou stopped him.
Today, An Youyou doesn’t want to eat, just rent a house, and you will be generous and don’t make money and just spend money.
Yesterday, Jiang Weiguo told An Youyou the general direction of the farmer's home, asking An Youyou to walk ahead first, and he would lead the way when he was about to arrive. Before leaving, An Youyou told you to come back early today and move tonight if it goes well.
An Youyou kept muttering along the way, saying that if she rented a house today, she would go to the city to buy 20 buns and eat 10 of them first, and ask for 20 Fuji vegetable buns, the kind I ate last night.
Jiang Weiguo was speechless when he heard this, and asked An Youyou why he didn’t buy 20 meat buns.
"Meat buns, do you know how expensive 20 meat buns are? One meat bun can buy three vegetable buns, and you can eat some vegetable buns. What kind of buns are not buns, why do you have to eat meat buns?" An Youyou thought it was Jiang Weiguo who wanted to eat meat buns, so she almost jumped up and defended her savings to the death.
Jiang Weiguo could only explain: "Buy some fat meat and chop it into meat foam and mix it into cabbage. This is the filling of meat buns sold by many bun shops. If you want to use sorghum noodles, you can mix white noodles with noodles. These ingredients are only fat meat a little more expensive. Now it is the season for eating cabbage. Just find a farmer to buy cabbage at home, and you can buy a large piece of it with a copper coin."
"What you said is lightweight, how can you do it?"
"I can." Jiang Weiguo nodded, "I made the dish buns last night."
"I recommended myself to Master Ding. Master Ding wanted to try my skills. I asked me to stir-fry two vegetarian dishes and cook a few more vegetable buns. Master Ding delivered the vegetarian dishes to the boss. He asked me to secretly put them away and take them back to eat."
"Master Ding said that if the boss likes me, I will be turned into a pier cutting next month, but I will still have to be a handyman this month, but I can do some pier cutting work."
"The dealer is cautious. I am new to me. He is worried when he asked me to make a cutter as soon as he came."
An Youyou was stunned and recalled the vegetables and buns she ate last night. She subconsciously swallowed her saliva, but she didn't expect that the little brother she picked up was so skillful.
"Then... how much does it cost to those white flour, sorghum noodles and other things you just mentioned?"
"not much."
"You really know how to make meat buns?" An Youyou looked at Jiang Weiguo suspiciously, trying to see from his expression whether he was bragging.
Jiang Weiguo didn't say anything, just nodded heavily.
Seeing Jiang Weiguo nodding, An Youyou felt that it was still somewhat credible.
The farmers' homes are in the suburbs and don't have to go into the city. An Youyou and Jiang Weiguo walk very quickly, and they arrive in less than an hour. In fact, there is no need for Jiang Weiguo to lead the way. When you arrive at the place, you can see which household is a farmer's home.
The beautiful bluestone brick house has a well in the yard and flowers and plants. The bricks are the best blue bricks. Rather than saying that they are farmers' homes, they are more like houses bought by some wealthy family in the suburbs for viewing flowers and outings.
Jiang Weiguo clamped the door, and a strong man opened the door. He was very happy to see Jiang Weiguo coming. He was thinking that he looked at An Youyou behind Jiang Weiguo. He saw that An Youyou was dressed as a beggar, but his clothes were pretty good. He had no disgust on his face and enthusiastically welcomed the person in.
The house is big and has two floors.
The farmer introduced the situation of the house to An Youyou. Under normal circumstances, this house is a first-story two-story residence, which is a standard configuration for wealthy families. However, the farmer does not pay attention to this. In order to rent out the house, he renovated the house and changed the tea room, study room, living room and other things on the first floor into rooms.
In short, it is definitely enough to live.
And it is not the kind that An Youyou expected. She has a room, half a room in Jiang Weiguo, and the remaining 12 younger brothers have a room to live in. It is her room, Jiang Weiguo, and the remaining 12 younger brothers have a room to live in. Each of four people has a room to live in.
Since both parties have a strong desire to trade, they simply set some basic rules, such as sharing the yard and sharing the kitchen, An Youyou and his group should keep hygiene as much as possible. Begging for food is a profession, ensuring personal hygiene is the basic quality of tenants, and they must pay the rent for 6 months at a time. After the farmers urgently use money to send their eldest son to school, Jiang Weiguo, the only person who knows how to write, drafts a rental contract, and both parties press their handprints.
Only after signing the contract did the farmer's wife dare to take her children out and look at the new tenant at home curiously.
Qin Huai was shocked when his wife poked her head.
He recognized the farmer's wife!
He has seen it in Luo Jun’s memory!
This is the farmer who rented his house to Jiang Weiming in Shu, and opened a private restaurant, cleaning the yard every day during the day to facilitate Luo Jun's sitting in the yard to read newspapers.
Her son is the little kid who always slips into the kitchen from the back door to cheat and cheats on food and drinks. He will point at Jiang Weiming and call Mingming. He is from Shu, but he is led by Jiang Weiming to go astray. He is a little kid who speaks of Beijing movies.
Qin Huai subconsciously looked at the three children of the farmers, and was looking for the fat boy.
Can't see it.
The farmer has two children and one daughter. Except for his daughter, he looks similar in size, and Qin Huai can't recognize him at all.
When An Youyou saw the farmer's wife, she subconsciously shined her eyes and wanted to kowtow to beg for food, but was stopped by Jiang Weiguo's eyes.
There is no way, the professional quality is too strong.
Because she was very satisfied with the house (there were many rooms and beds), An Youyou paid the rent for 6 months very readily, with a total of 18 yuan, and the small treasury was reduced sharply.
As soon as he left the yard, An Youyou was anxious to go back to the dilapidated temple to move.
Although there was no property, there was still a box of matches, two bags of coarse salt, and several pots of clay pots. An Youyou had lost 18 oceans and could no longer lose these possessions.
Jiang Weiguo was going to go to work in the city and had no time to accompany An Youyou to move back and tell An Youyou not to forget to buy some things in the city after moving. You can not buy quilts and cotton coats at first, but you always have to buy two straw mats. Four people sleep in one room and beds may not be enough for them, and someone may have to sleep on the ground.
After hearing this, An Youyou was shocked and thought it was really bad to rent a house. She used to just sleep on the floor every day, but now she has to buy straw mats on the floor. It's so expensive.
But An Youyou nodded and then moved quickly.
When moving, I happened to meet a woman washing clothes in the yard. The woman smiled and told An Youyou that there was a lot of firewood in the kitchen. If An Youyou wanted to cook today, you could use the firewood in the kitchen first. The firewood seller came early every morning, with 2 copper plates and a bundle of firewood. You can buy firewood or pick it up in the woods by yourself.
An Youyou wrote it down and decided to arrange for me to go to the woods to pick up firewood from tomorrow.
I used to live in a dilapidated temple close to the woods to pick up firewood, but now it is not possible. I have to arrange a dedicated person to do these things.
After moving, An Youyou first admired the house he rented for 18 yuan a fortune, and then went to the city to buy things.
Straw mat, new clothes (buy for yourself), new bowl (buy for yourself), candied haws (reward for yourself), fat meat, white noodles, sorghum noodles, millet, white rice, and various beans.
An Youyou didn't buy cabbage, so she agreed with the woman in the yard that she would arrange for a few younger brothers to help the woman fetch water, and the woman would give her a few cabbages.
I bought a lot of things, and An Youyou bought them several times. After buying the last batch of things, I only spent a little more than a piece of ocean after buying them.
Thinking about the 18 yuan I handed over this morning, An Youyou was so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe.
At night, An Youyou returned to the dilapidated temple and waited for the younger brothers to arrive. He led the younger brothers to the river and washed all the people and clothes. Everyone was wearing wet clothes by the fire until the clothes were half dry before going to the new home in a mighty manner.
Along the way, An Youyou kept telling the rules of the new family to her brothers: they love to clean, pick up firewood, help fetch water, and strictly prohibit stealing things, which means that they are different now. They are no longer ordinary beggars, they are high-end beggars who can afford bluestone brick houses.
High-end beggars have to do some high-end things.
For example, when Jiang Weiguo comes back in the evening, he will make meat buns for everyone.
When I heard that there were meat buns to eat, several of my younger brothers were swallowing their saliva all the way.
Beggars who have never walked into brick and tile houses have never seen such a high-end house. When they entered the yard, they were all stunned. Just like Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, they dared not touch this one and that one dared not move, but they only dared to look straight with their eyes open. They were afraid that they wouldn't look at each other less, but after two seconds the boss told them that they were embarrassed to go wrong. We lived in the next door in the earthen house.
Only after An Youyou asked the little brothers to choose to allocate the room themselves did they cheer and were as happy as the New Year.
Oh no, beggars are just New Year, they should be happier than New Year.
Like yesterday, Jiang Weiguo came back very late.
When Jiang Weiguo came back, the younger brothers had already divided the rooms, and everyone couldn't put them down. Whether they were sleeping in bed or on the ground, they were very happy because they had basically never slept in straw mats or beds.
The woman picked 5 fresh cabbages for An Youyou, which was more than enough to make buns stuffing.
An Youyou excitedly pulled Jiang Weiguo into the kitchen, wanting to watch Jiang Weiguo make buns.
This is the boss's order. Jiang Weiguo, as the 13th younger brother, had to obey. Even if An Youyou squatted beside the stove, it was a big problem, and he always blocked Jiang Weiguo's fire. Jiang Weiguo could only hold several positions, chopped fillings, kneaded dough, made buns, and burned the fire.
Not to mention, the efficiency is quite high.
The so-called meat buns made by Jiang Weiguo are actually cabbage buns sold by many breakfast shops. Fresh cabbage is chopped and seasoned. In order to make the cabbage buns have some oil and water, the taste will not be too light, many breakfast shops will also chop some fat meat into it to increase the aroma.
Jiang Weiguo's knife skills are very good.
Qin Huai has been practicing knife skills recently. The first thing he saw when he saw a chef cooking was knife skills. Jiang Weiguo was a standard professional background, and he could tell at a glance that it was a boy skills.
The boy's skills in this era are either learned from a young age or passed down from family skills. No matter which one is, it is enough to show that Jiang Weiguo's family background was indeed good before.
Although chefs cannot be noble in this era, they are also a good profession.
Compared with excellent knife skills, Jiang Weiguo's kneading dough is much inferior. The sorghum noodles mixed with white flour are difficult to knead, not to mention that the white flour and sorghum noodles bought by An Youyou are not good at quality due to the times. To be precise, the white flour is not white, but gray, and the color is not white at all.
Judging from Jiang Weiguo's actions when kneading dough, Qin Huai could pick at least 2 to 3 big mistakes and seven or eight small mistakes for him.
But this doesn't matter.
Because Qin Huai saw that Jiang Weiguo was a standard red case chef, and the white case was a casual practice.
This is not important to An Youyou.
Because she couldn't see any problem, she just thought that Jiang Weiguo was really amazing and could actually knead the dough.
Jiang Weiguo is the only high-end talent that An Youyou knows who can knead noodles. Before, An Youyou always thought that buns were very high-end food, because they had to spend money to buy this thing, and it was not cheap, so it was difficult to get there when begging for food.
An Youyou stared at Jiang Weiguo with almost golden eyes, kneading the noodles, chopping the stuffing, mixing the stuffing, making buns, burning the fire, and steaming the buns.
It was very rare that she didn't speak throughout the whole process because she had no intention of talking at all, and she put all her thoughts on the buns in the pot.
