    This morning, the more than 20 kilograms of cold dishes Gao Liang brought were sold out before eight o'clock. After excluding the cost, he made at least ten yuan.  Although it is a small business, the profits are still quite large.  Gao Liang thought to himself that if he had a store and could make and sell at the same time, he would be able to earn at least twice as much every day.

    Gao Liang remembered that today was Gao Qiang¡¯s birthday. She had bought some eggs yesterday. She planned to buy some meat and take this opportunity to celebrate the beginning of a new life.  The stall selling pork was out of meat, leaving only two big bones. Gao Liang looked at the big bones and asked, "How to sell the bones?"

    The uncle who sells meat rubbed the shiny machete against the sharpening stick twice: "There are only these two left. If you want it, it's cheaper, one yuan a pound." These days, the standard of living is not very high, and materials are relatively scarce.  , people don¡¯t pay much attention to higher-level enjoyment. For example, when buying pork, you must have real fat or lean meat to feel affordable. Bones are heavy and not chewy. Except for the breakfast shop owner who buys them for soup.  Most people rarely buy it, so the price is more than half cheaper than pork.

    Gao Liang said: "I'll weigh one."

    The uncle said: "If you want it, just take it. It will be cheaper for you, eight cents."

    Gao Liang gritted his teeth: "Okay."

    The bones totaled four and a half kilograms and cost three yuan and five cents. The uncle even helped Gao Liang chop the bones into pieces.  Gao Liang planned to buy the bones and add them to the brine. Adding some bones to the brine would make it taste even more delicious.

    After buying the big bones, Gao Liang went to the chicken and duck stall again, wanting to buy a chicken to take home, but the chickens raised by his fellow villagers were too fat. A hen weighed three to four kilograms, and a capon weighed five or six kilograms.  Buying a chicken costs more than ten yuan, and Gao Liang is reluctant to part with it.

    At this time, a middle-aged woman quickly walked into the market carrying a bucket and a footbath, shouting loudly as she walked: "Oh, oh, I'm too late, the market is almost gone."

    Gao Liang hurried over to take a look and found that the other party had picked two large buckets of fresh fish.  She felt happy and bought a fish.  The other party put down the bucket and poured all the fish in the two buckets into the big foot basin. There was a commotion in the basin and water splashed everywhere. These fish were all freshly caught from the river and were extremely fresh.

    Gao Liang hurried over: "How can I sell this fish?"

    The woman selling fish said: "The big ones cost one dollar and a half, the small ones cost eight cents."

    Gao Liang knew that this was the unit price, so she chose a grass carp weighing two to three kilograms: "Weigh this one for me." The fish was not big, but it was tender enough and tasted delicious.

    After buying the fish, Gao Liang went to buy some ingredients. The ingredients at home were almost used. I also bought some fresh and available ingredients in the market. I tried to change one or two fresh dishes every time, so that I would not be confused by the variety.  Too single and loses appeal.  Gao Liang still remembers buying Gao Shan a new straw hat.

    Gao Shan looked at her eldest sister coming back with a lot of vegetables, and suddenly opened her mouth: "Sister, why did you buy so many vegetables?"

    Gao Liang said with a smile: "Qiangqiang's birthday today, I bought a fish. Let's go back quickly, otherwise the fish will die."

    Although almost all the money he earned today was spent, Gao Liang was still very happy and felt a sense of accomplishment.  After returning home, Gao Liang kept the fish in clean water. After walking all this way, it was not dead yet. It was so tenacious that he kept it until noon to make boiled fish.  Gao Liang washed the big bones he bought, boiled them with water, skimmed off the foam, put some of the bones into a brine pot, stewed the other part with lotus roots, and made soup for his younger siblings to replenish calcium. There are many kinds of bone soup.  Nutrition.

    After finishing all this work, Gao Liang still went to catch up on his sleep. He took a nap in the morning, basically stopped sleeping at noon, and went to bed after eating and taking a shower in the evening. He could sleep about seven to eight hours a day, although his sleep time was not so concentrated.  , barely enough.

    After Gao Liang woke up, she smelled a strange fragrance coming from outside. She suddenly felt a little hungry and quickly got up.  Gao Qiang sniffed desperately and smelled the fragrance: "It smells so good, it smells so good! I'm so hungry."

    Gao Liang discovered that it was the big bone lotus root soup she had stewed before that was cooked. No wonder it was so fragrant. She said in a good mood: "Don't worry, there will be something more fragrant later."

    Gao Qiang turned around and saw his eldest sister coming out, so he quickly ran over: "Sister, are you up?"

    Gao Pan, who was watching the fish at the faucet, turned around and said, "Sister, the fish seems to be dying."

    Gao Liang rolled up his sleeves: "It's okay. I'll kill the fish now. Shanshan will bring me an apron."

    The younger brothers and sisters all looked at her in surprise, as if they had heard something surprising. Gao Shan handed over the apron: "Sister, when did you learn to kill fish?" Their father had always killed the fish in their family.  Not even the mother knows how to kill fish, let alone their children.

    &It was quite embarrassing to have to work as a hawker, but I still didn¡¯t say no.  Gao Liang knew what she was thinking, but he didn't want to worry about her feelings all the time. Gao Shan was younger than her, so she should take care of her younger sister, and she also wanted to take the opportunity to train her so that she could understand the hardships of life and study hard.

    Along the way, Gao Pan lowered his head and helped Gao Liang push the cart without saying a word. His sweat dropped drop by drop on the hot ground and disappeared in an instant.  Gao Liang stopped in the shade of a tree: "Let's rest for a while before leaving. Have a drink of water."

    Gao Pan took a glass bottle filled with water and took a sip of cold water. He stretched out his fingers to scrape the sweat off his chin while gasping for air.  Gao Liang looked at the older sister whose hair was stuck to her face with sweat: "Panpan, are you tired?"

    Gao Pan saw that his sister's back was soaked, thinking that she had to run around like this every day, getting up at three in the morning, and it was countless times harder than him. In fact, she was only older than him.  He was only two years old, so he shook his head: "It's okay."

    Gao Liang sighed and said, "It's really hard to run around every day like this. I'll just wait until I get over this period of hardship. When I save enough money, I'll open a shop and I won't have to suffer like this anymore."

    Gao Pan obviously didn¡¯t believe it: ¡°Can we open a store?¡±

    A confident smile appeared on Gao Liang's face: "I can do it one day, but the most important thing now is to solve the problem of food and clothing." She has decades more life experience than others, and knows that there are many business opportunities in this era, but no matter how many business opportunities there are, there will be no  You can¡¯t grasp the capital, so you can only do it step by step.

    Gao Pan looked at her sister and felt inspired inexplicably. She is really an optimistic and strong woman.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
