selling chili peppers in chronology

===========================

Since the agreement to grow peppers together, everyone has learned more about the pepper business.Among them, the most talked about was the grandeur of selling bad peppers in Yongxing County. Everyone caught Chen Qian and asked, no matter how hard he heard it, he couldn't get tired of it.

You know, Chen Qian is the most optimistic about the chili business. Before trying to persuade his father to give him a few more acres of land, he said a lot of good things, and later he even talked about it.But even such a talkative person got tired of being asked by everyone.

It is conceivable how terrifying those who are not tired of listening are.

Anyway, Chen Qian didn't want to mention it again.

But regardless of the questioning, in short, Chen Qian explained the details of selling bad peppers clearly, and a series of true and false statements in Chen Chen's mouth were copied by Chen Qian countless times.

Chen Qian didn't know that some of the words were false, and other people who listened to him naturally didn't know, such as spices and so on, they believed it to be true.

So Wang Guizhi and Feng Zhaodi were very excited when they came to help make the bad chili the next day. They thought they should take a closer look at the precious spices that could make the bad chili so delicious.

In the early morning, the big guy started picking peppers with a basket, and while picking Wang Guizhi, he said: "Not to mention anything else, this pepper grows really well."

Feng Zhaodi said: "No, the peppers I planted this year are not as good as this one."

"It's pretty good." Mrs. Li asked Chen Chen who was also helping to pick peppers, "Xiaochen, are the seeds of these peppers different from the seeds we showed you earlier?"

"These seeds are all from the peppers that my dad planted in the yard last time. In fact, there is not much difference." Chen Chen said, "Maybe it's because the weather is good, so they grow well."

Feng Zhaodi murmured: "Isn't it time to grow peppers?"

Wang Guizhi thought it was reasonable, "Maybe it is true."

Li Shi said: "Don't care if it's true or not, just try again next year and you'll know."

Feng Zhaodi responded, "That's the reason."

Everyone was talking and chatting, and they moved quickly. They quickly picked the red peppers and filled them with three large baskets. Each basket was not too full, but there was definitely a lot.

Chen Chen felt that the chili was not light, so he wanted to wash it in a small pond, but Wang Guizhi stopped him directly, saying that she and Feng Zhaodi and Liu Dongxue could just carry a basket on their backs, and told them to peel the garlic at home.

In this way, Chen Chen went to the eaves to get three strings of garlic braids hanging from the eaves. Mrs. Li cut off the heads of garlic with a knife, and then peeled them off one by one.

After peeling off the small half, the three little ones, Chen Huaixing, Chen Huaifang and Chen Huaizhi, came.Among the three, Chen Huaixing is the oldest, five years old this year; Chen Huaifang is four years old; Chen Huaizhi is the youngest, only three years old.

As soon as the three little radish heads came, they twittered and shouted. Mrs. Li just hated the slow peeling of garlic, and arranged for them when she saw them, "Go and bring the bench over and help peel the garlic."

Small tasks such as peeling garlic are commonplace for rural children, and the three children went there in a hurry.

After they sat down, Chen Chen asked, "Why didn't you go to the village to play?"

Chen Huaixing replied while peeling the garlic: "My mother said that I can't go out to play today, so she asked us to come and help with work."

Chen Huaifang also nodded, "My mother said so too."

Chen Huaizhi said in a childish voice, "I came with them to help with work."

"It's time to help with the work." Li Shi said bluntly, "I've been playing crazy all day long."

At this time, Chen Huaifang spread out her small palm to claim credit, "Grandma, I peeled one off!"

"Well, you did a good job." Mrs. Li praised and said, "One has to be diligent, so as to be likable. You must not be lazy today."

The three little radish heads nodded one after another.

One by one sat on a small bench, surrounded by a wooden basin containing garlic, with their heads lowered, and their movements were serious.

They are still young and not very strong, but they also have their own little skills for peeling garlic. When they take it, they always use the small garlic cloves broken by Li Shi and Chen Chen. If the head is still hard, they put it in their mouths and bite. It's easy to peel off the skin once.These are all their previous experience of peeling garlic.

The five grandfathers and grandchildren peeled more than half of the garlic, and Wang Guizhi, who went to the small pond to wash the peppers, also came back with the peppers on their backs. Seeing the three little radish heads were still joking, the three younger ones claimed credit for how much they had peeled. How much garlic, the three grandmas praised our xx for being sensible, the beauty made the little radish heads even more motivated, and those who were a little impatient to peel the garlic obediently continued to peel, completely forgetting their previous impatience.

There were a lot of peppers this time, and after Chen Chen took out the knives and chopping boards he bought last time, it was still not enough. Wang Guizhi and Feng Zhaodi went back and brought their own knives and chopping boards. There were four chopping boards in total, and Chen Chen helped chop one. Mrs. Li and the three younger ones continued to peel the garlic.

Chen Chen took out the plastic gloves, and said: "This chili is very hot to chop, and the gloves are not enough for one pair of gloves. I will buy a few more pairs after these bad chilis are sold. Let's change them now."

Wang Guizhi immediately groaned, "How expensive is this good thing!"

Feng Zhaodi also clicked his tongue.

Mrs. Li directly criticized, "You kid is really extravagant in spending money. These gloves cost several dollars a pair."

"It's not particularly expensive." Chen Chen passed vaguely, "The main reason is that the chili peppers are really hot, and they need to be chopped a lot. The hotness is really unbearable in the hands, and it's comfortable to have gloves on."

Everyone looked at Chen Chen's hand, which was obviously different from that of the peasant family, and suddenly they were speechless again.

Wang Guizhi is frugal, so he said: "Xiao Chen, you used to write with a pen. You are young and your hands are tender. If you chop too many peppers, you will definitely not be able to bear it. If you wear these gloves, you will never buy them again." , where do we need this thing when we are often busy in the kitchen."

Chen Chen didn't argue, "We wear them differently."

As for buying another glove... that must be bought again, after a while they will feel really good.

There are four chopping boards for four people, and there is no room for them on the edge of the stove in the kitchen, and two more are placed on the table in the small hall.

For a while, the room was filled with the sound of chopping peppers.

Chen Chen used double swords this time, and his speed was indeed much faster than single swords before.

Although these gloves cost five yuan a pair, they are very expensive, but the effect of blocking the heat is really good, and I can't feel the heat of chopping peppers before.

The three of Wang Guizhi's sister-in-law couldn't help muttering, "No wonder it's expensive, it's so comfortable to wear."

It took the four people more than an hour to finish chopping the peppers. The chopped peppers and garlic were filled into two large wooden basins. Mrs. Li brought three small ones to boil the rice wine that Chen Chen had cooked in advance in the stove. Rice wine can also be used when salt is added.

The tub is big and there are a lot of chili peppers, it can't be stirred with chopsticks at all, so Chen Chen put on gloves and grabbed it with his hands.

Liu Dongxue helped make bad chili twice before, and he was familiar with the process and helped catch it.

Li looked puzzled, "Just let this go?"

Right now, there are only a few adults in the room, and the three young ones are holding bowls and drinking rice wine from the shabu-shabu under the eaves outside, chatting eagerly, not listening to the conversation inside the room at all.

Chen Chen replied: "All the ingredients have been added in, after grasping it well, put it into a jar, and it will be ready to eat after half a month."

Feng Zhaodi was confused, "Didn't Xiaoqian say there were some spices added here? There's also sugar or something, why didn't I see it?"

Wang Guizhi also didn't understand, "That's right, I eat that bad chili which is sweet and sour, why don't I need to add sugar?"

Chen Chen said: "The bad chili tastes sweet because rice wine is added into it. This is rice wine cooked with new rice, and the time of fermentation is just right, so it tastes sweet; as for the sourness, it is because it is fermented in the jar, and it is not the same as marinated. It's the same as sauerkraut."

Everyone seems to understand but not understand.

Feng Zhaodi hesitated, "Then this spice?"

"Basically there is no spice." Chen Chen said, "You can know how to make this bad chili after reading it once. If you meet someone who cooks all the year round, just tell us the salt and rice wine we added and they will be able to make it. Then they will be able to make it too." Take it out and sell it."

Hearing what Chen Chen said, everyone immediately came to their senses, if they honestly told those who bought bad chili what was added in it, then they would still be doing a shitty business!

People can cook and eat by themselves!

Mrs. Li immediately said: "Boss, second, third, daughter-in-law, you should all pay attention, no one can talk about this matter! Let me hear some rumors, and then don't blame me for not thinking about the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law!"

Wang Guizhi immediately said: "Mom, what are you talking about, we all have a share in the chili business, even if we are stupid, we won't take it out and shout about it."

Feng Zhaodi and Liu Dongxue nodded in agreement with Wang Guizhi's statement.

They took out so much land to grow peppers, and they hoped to sell them to make some money!

But Mrs. Li snorted again to warn, "Not only outsiders can't say it, even your natal family has kept their mouths shut. This is a big deal for our Chen family!"

Wang Guizhi, Feng Zhaodi and Liu Dongxue agreed one after another.

After knocking people down, Mrs. Li turned around and praised Chen Chen, "Xiao Chen is still clever. Once those words are spoken, this chili pepper can be sold at a high price. Even if someone wants to learn how to make it, I'm afraid they have to study it." Research what spices are added!"

"No, those who have studied have good brains." Feng Zhaodi said: "They can't figure it out even if they try."

Wang Guizhi said with a smile: "How do they know that there is no such thing?"

"Who said there is no secret recipe!" Li's eyes widened, "We have added a lot of precious things to this bad pepper, otherwise how could this bad pepper be so delicious!"

Wang Guizhi and Feng Zhaodi turned around, "Yes, that's our Chen family's unique secret recipe!"

So should Liu Dongxue.

Chen Chen:"……"

I suspect you are mocking me.

and……

He really has a secret recipe.

It's just that you can't even tell the secret recipe!

But this couldn't be explained. Seeing that the peppers in the wooden basin were almost caught, Chen Chen took off his gloves decisively and prepared to run away, "I'll go and take out the jar."

Wang Guizhi said, "I'll help get it."

Li Shi and Feng Zhaodi followed, each of them helped, and quickly brought seven or eight empty jars over.

The jar was washed and put there before, and it was still covered with a lid, so it was not dirty at all. You only need to wipe off the dust falling on the outside and it can be used directly.

Everyone holds a clean spoon in their hands, and puts it in the jar bit by bit.

The jars ranged from five catties to ten catties, and even later Chen Chen went to buy a large jar of twenty catties, which contained five or six jars, large and small.

Chen Chen did some calculations, one jar of 50 catties, three jars of [-] catties, and a small jar of five catties were not filled. Adding up the bad peppers made today totaled more than [-] catties.

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Answer some questions in the recent book review area.

1. About how much land the Chen family took out:

In Chen Chen's heart, he wanted the Chen family to take all the dry land, pay attention, it was dry land, and when the country divided the land, the dry land and paddy fields were divided in half. half of the amount.

Taking out all the dry land was just what Chen Chen thought in his heart, or in other words, his future goal, but he didn't mention it that way, because he knew very well that peasants value land, even if he swore that he would not If you lose money, you will definitely be able to make money and make a lot of money, but it is impossible to realize it if you propose it, so he only needs a part.

The result of the final discussion is not to take out all the dry land.

What happened to the part of the land that was taken out?

The eldest and the second family each have several children of a few years old, and the children eat very little food. It is equivalent to the eight mu of land for each of the children at this stage for nothing!Even if all the children's land is used to grow peppers, it will definitely not affect the meal of the boss and the second family, they will still be full!

Although Chen Chen’s family has little land, Chen Chen still has money. Chen Jianye also has the 80 for selling jobs and [-] for selling bad peppers that Chen Chen gave him before. These [-] can buy a lot of things in the [-]s. In other words, even if they fail, they still have a way out, and they can also use money to buy food, and they will not starve to death.

What's more, Chen Chen knew very well that he would not fail.

In addition to the two parts of the land that each household eats and handed in, a part of the grain will be sold.

Chen Chen now wants some land to grow chili peppers, which is actually equivalent to changing the part of the grain land that was originally to be sold to grow chili peppers.

The above are explained in the text.

So, stop bullying me about it.

2. About bringing other members of the Chen family to grow peppers:

From the very beginning, whether Chen Chen went to the county to apply for some documents or try to sell bad peppers, he went by himself without calling anyone.

Then Chen Qian went to sell bad peppers, it was Chen Qian who came to the door himself, not Chen Chen to ask for it.

Later, Chen Qian wanted to grow chili peppers, and Chen Qian also proposed it on his own initiative, because he saw this market by buying bad chili peppers, and he thought he could make money by growing peppers.At this time, what Chen Chen promised was that Chen Qian planted peppers and he bought them, not that the big guys planted them together and shared the money.

Up to this point, Chen Chen has no intention of pulling the other two houses to grow peppers, because Chen Chen knows very well that farmers value the land, and he wants to try it himself first, so as to convince Chen Jianye first.

Chen Chen didn't intervene in this matter until later when Chen Qian asked Chen Chen for help after making a fuss about the land he wanted from Chen Jianjun.In addition, Du Xingwei reminded him to establish a brand, so he wanted to recruit other members of the Chen family to join in. At this time, Chen Chen asked the big guys to grow peppers together and share the money.As for how many mu of land each family took out, it was Grandpa Chen Xiangwu who said, Chen Chen didn't intervene at all, he just proposed the method of splitting the shares.

Why did Chen Chen finally agree with everyone to join the gang and share the money together?

The explanation is very clear in the text, so I won't go into details.

I just want to say one thing: Chen Chen is not just looking for something to do!

3. Regarding technology and equity issues:

Seeing that some friends said that Chen Chen’s shareholding is too small, I should emphasize to everyone the importance of technology and the fact that peppers are not grown in season because he has technology.

To be honest, when I was conceiving this part of the plot, I was entangled in whether to use the existence of the golden finger in a special technical way, or to say that his classmates and friends bought him some fertilizer from other places. Yes, but in the end I didn’t write it that way for the following reasons:

First, there is no impenetrable wall in this world. The Chen family has never been out of the countryside and has little knowledge, so it is completely possible to fool them, and they even think it is very powerful.But in this way, everyone will know that the reason why they can grow peppers alive is because of their special technology.

People open their mouths, this kind of thing will definitely be spread in a few days, all the towns and cities will know about it, when the leaders know it, want it, want to buy it, what should Chen Chen do?Say it's my family's secret recipe so I won't give it?Come on, that's the government, do you dare to say "no".

Once this kind of thing is exported, it cannot withstand scrutiny, and the legacy of breaking the four old traditions is still there. Things like this that cannot be explained by science must not be leaked to the second person, otherwise it will be courting death.

Second, it takes countless lies to complete a lie. Isn’t it tiring to live under lies every day?

Third, the role of Lingquan has been introduced from the very beginning. It can help plants grow, improve the taste of food, and can even be passed down, but it takes a long time and needs to be passed on from generation to generation.

This is a very long plan, and it is also a subtle plan, so Chen Chen chooses the most conservative way - not mentioning the existence of Lingquan at all, and then silently changes it bit by bit.

It took a long time and the change was very slow, no one would have thought that Chen Chen did it.

This is also the safest way for Chen Chen.

Fourth, Chen Chen's personality is relatively Buddhist. His goal is to have enough food and clothing, and bring the Chen family to live a life that is easy for future generations. Making a lot of money is not in his plan.

At present, the entire pepper market can be said to be completely empty. The cake itself is big enough, and with the blessing of his golden finger, Chen Chen has never worried that his peppers will not be sold, so even if he does not own half of the equity, But in fact, the money that can be distributed in the end will definitely not be less. Chen Chen is not such a fussy person, he is not stingy, he really doesn't care if he gets more or less!

So, my friends, stop complaining about Chen Chen, let's watch him lead everyone to live a good life step by step happily, okay?

Finally, thank you for reading, thank you for your support, whether it is praise or criticism, I will carefully read and reflect on it, and I hope that my friends can accompany Chen Chen to the end, bow down.
