Yan Wu picked up a piece of egg yolk stuffing and took a bite, nodding repeatedly.

"this is delicious."

He picked up another piece of fruit filling and ate it, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"This tastes good too."

Yan Huai glanced at Yan Wu and took a small piece of each to taste.

He gave a fair assessment.

"Although I don't know how the mooncakes made by those pastry shops taste, the taste of these mooncakes made by my little sister is very novel, and rich people will buy them back to try them."

Yan Wu nodded in agreement.

"I also think that the mooncakes made by my little sister are soft and glutinous, and are much more delicious than the ones we ate before."

Yan Shu thought to herself that when she made the dough, she put a lot of eggs in it, which must have more ingredients than the mooncakes sold outside.

"With your words, I have the confidence to give it a try. Second brother and third brother, how about we sell mooncakes together during the Moon Festival?"

The two looked at Yan Shu in surprise.

"Little sister, you want us to do it together?"

Yan Shu nodded: "At that time, I will be responsible for making mooncakes at home, and you will be responsible for selling them in the town and county. The three of us will share the money equally."

Yan Huai shook his head: "The mooncakes account for a large part of the cost. If you calculate it like this, my little sister will suffer a big loss. How about this. My second brother and I are responsible for selling mooncakes. If we make money, my little sister will give us a little salary."

Yan Wu nodded in agreement.

"We are just running errands. This is my little sister's idea to make money. It's up to you to keep the money you make."

Yan Shu thought for a while: "I will remove the cost first, and the remaining money will be divided equally between the three of us. The Moon Festival is just a few days away, and we won't actually make much money. Second brother and third brother, don't think so much."

Yan Shu made a decision, and then the three brothers and sisters discussed how to sell these mooncakes.

Yan Shu wanted to cooperate with the pastry shop. When the time came, she would go to the negotiation in person and determine the store for cooperation. The second and third brothers only needed to deliver the goods at scheduled times every day.

In the evening, Yan Shu prepared five packages of moon cakes, a strip of fat and thin pork, and five pounds of white rice for them to take back.

"Let my parents and eldest brother have a taste of my craftsmanship, and take this piece of pork and rice noodles back. I bought a lot of food with the money my mother gave me. From now on, if the family is short of food, I can come and get it."

Yan Huai reached out and took the bamboo basket.

"My little sister is at home alone. Remember to close the doors and windows at night."

Yan Shu nodded in agreement.

-

"Dad, Mom, we are back."

Yan Huai walked into the house carrying a bamboo basket.

Liu Wenniang walked out of the house, and Yan Wen followed behind with a cane.

"Lao San, why did you bring something back from Shu'er's house?"

Liu Wenniang frowned in disapproval when she saw the bulging basket on Yan Huai's back.

Although my daughter has some money saved in her hand, it is not easy for a girl like her to save some money to defend herself. As her parents, they cannot help at all and must not hinder her anymore.

"Mom, this is a cake made by my little sister. I want to take it back and let my parents and eldest brother have a taste."

Liu Wenniang's eyes lit up and she said with a smile: "Shu'er said she wanted to start a small business two days ago. What are you ready to do so soon?"

Yan Huai carried the basket into Liu Wenniang and Yan Ersheng's room.

She took out a package of mooncakes from inside, and Liu Wenniang looked surprised when she opened the paper package.

"Is this a mooncake made by Shu'er?"

"My little sister made it. There are five flavors in total."

Liu Wenniang took out a mooncake, broke it into two pieces, and handed one piece to Yan Ersheng.

"Have a taste of my daughter's craftsmanship."

Yan Ersheng smiled and said: "Our daughter is very clever and the cakes she makes will be delicious."

Liu Wenniang handed the other piece to Yan Wen.

"Brother Wen, give it a try too."

"Mom, you eat first."

Liu Wenniang broke off half of the piece in her hand and handed a piece to Yan Wen.

"Let's try it together."

The piece they broke off was made of red bean paste. The bean paste was sweet but not greasy, and was polished to a delicate and silky texture. The orange-yellow skin was soft and sweet in the mouth.

Liu Wenniang closed her eyes.

"It's so delicious."

Yan Wen smiled and nodded: "My skills are comparable to those of pastry chefs."

Yan Huai told Yan Ersheng and Liu Wenniang that Yan Shu wanted to sell mooncakes together.

Yan Ersheng was silent for a while and smiled happily.

"Your little sister wants to give you a hand, just listen to her."

"My son understands."

Liu Wenniang took out the remaining four packages of mooncakes and handed them to Yan Huai.

"Third brother, you and the second child will send the mooncakes to the village chief and the seventh uncle. You will inevitably have to borrow an oxcart to sell mooncakes these days. We must know the village chief's attitude. The seventh uncle has helped us a lot before. The other two packs of mooncakes are to honor his old man."

Yan Huai reached out and took it.

"Second brother went to the village chief's house to return the ox cart. I will go find him right now."

next day

Yan Shu got up early in the morning, washed himself, and drove the donkey cart to the town.

She arrived at Wangyue Tea House first, and today was the day she made an appointment with Sister Lan.

As soon as I walked into the teahouse, I was greeted by the waiter.

"Miss Yan, Sister Lan has arrived and is waiting for you in the private room on the second floor."

"Brother, please lead the way."

"this way please."

Yan Shu followed the waiter to the second floor and came to a private room.

The waiter knocked on the door, and Sister Lan's voice came from inside.

"Come in."

The waiter opened the door and asked Yan Shu to go in.

Yan Shu looked towards the tea table by the window.

Sister Lan was wearing a navy blue skirt today, with one hand on her ear, exuding a lazy and charming look.

"Sister Shu'er, I haven't seen you for a few days. You seem to be much more beautiful again. Your figure is getting softer and softer. Look at the skin that can be broken by a blow. You don't know what you ate to grow up. Come sit down and tell me the scriptures." Let me learn from my sister."

Yan Shu curled his lips and smiled, walked to the tea table and sat down.

"Sister Lan is naturally beautiful. Even if she doesn't use anything, she is still a stunning beauty."

"Haha, I like to hear this, but I'm not convinced when it comes from your mouth. After all, with such a great beauty like you, my sister and I pale in comparison."

After saying this, Sister Lan took out a money bag from her sleeve.

"This is your share."

Yan Shu reached out his hand to take it generously, glanced at it, and his eyes were slightly startled.

"so much?"

There were a full 100 taels of silver, which meant that all twenty bottles of medicine were sold out.

"I sold all the twenty bottles of medicine you gave me. Those men had obvious effects after taking it, especially Mr. Gu. Taking the second bottle of Liuwei Dihuang Pills can be said to have restored his glory. He also wants three more bottles. .”

Yan Shu took out the prepared twenty bottles of Liuwei Dihuang Pills.

Sister Lan was a little disappointed.

"Sister, can we bring more next time?"

Yan Shu smiled and said: "Everyone has a desire to compare. The less they can buy, the more they want to get it. This will help improve the reputation of our medicine. When everyone knows that our Liuwei Dihuang Pills have miraculous effects, we will not be the ones selling them." Instead, others are begging to buy our medicine."

Sister Lan raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Things that are rare are valuable. What you said makes sense. So let's not be in a hurry to make a small profit. Let's build our reputation first. There will be many opportunities to make big money in the future."

Yan Shu took out the prepared moon cakes.

"This is?"

"It's a pastry I made in my spare time. I gave it to my sister to try."

"Hey, I want to try the cakes made by my sister."

While talking, Sister Lan opened the paper bag and took out a piece of moon cake.

The pack of mooncakes Yan Shu prepared for Sister Lan totaled five pieces, with five flower shapes and five flavors.

“What exquisite mooncakes.”

Yan Shu bought a variety of abrasive tools, and the mooncakes he made came in all shapes, and the dough was baked golden, making them look very delicate indeed.
