Chapter 207 The Two Brothers Who "Rip Off" Each Other!
Tang Guangjun would never leave.
Its body moved like an eel, twisting and turning to break free from Dou Weiyi's grasp, then running back to Gao Mengli.
"Sister-in-law, my dear sister-in-law! The people of our county don't earn much on a daily basis and are impoverished. Please accept our Pingding County duck eggs!!!"
Dou Weiyi was engrossed in pushing Tang Guangjun when suddenly his hand went empty, and he stumbled.
Turning around, I saw this guy running up to Gao Mengli again, trying to gain sympathy.
How can this be? He didn't even get to drink the soup in Pingyao County, is he here to eat meat?
"Get out of here, or I'll get physical!" Dou Weiyi's temples throbbed.
They grabbed Tang Guangjun and were about to drag him out.
Seeing the two of them start fighting, Gao Mengli, who was a little bald, put down the duck egg in her hand and looked at them, saying, "Alright, stop arguing."
The two immediately stopped their playful fighting and squatted down next to Gao Mengli, waiting for her to speak. "Not everyone can accept the taste of preserved eggs."
Whether the market is good or not is unknown for now. We'll have to wait until the escort agency returns and transports the goods out for sale to know for sure.
The preserved eggs are planned to be sold for two coins each. Although the price is not high, if it is more expensive, ordinary people will not be able to afford them.
However, selling to the prefecture or other prefectures would fetch a higher price, since the escort agency also incurs costs for transportation.
If you only do business with high-ranking officials and wealthy people, you can charge a higher price.
But how much can a wealthy person eat when they only have this much food?
It's better to do business with ordinary people; after all, the base is large, and you can earn more.
For ordinary people, the most fatal problem is poverty.
After all, most of the wealth is in the hands of a few.
For ordinary people to generate income, they can only rely on the output of their usual agricultural and sideline products to exchange for some money.
Her family could first take silver from the pockets of the wealthy and then let it flow into the pockets of ordinary people.
When people have money, they will naturally improve their lives and then buy things for their own homes.
The money flowed back into their own pockets.
Thinking of this, Gao Mengli paused for a moment before continuing, "So, for now, we won't accept duck eggs from other places. We'll wait until my family sells a batch first."
Dou Weiyi and Tang Guangjun nodded repeatedly after hearing Gao Mengli's words.
Tang Guangjun stroked his chin and looked at Gao Mengli seriously: "Sister-in-law, what you said makes sense!"
"Don't worry about the escort agencies. The ones in your county are too busy. We have Pingding County to help! I'll get them to give you a discount!"
"Tang Guangjun, don't go too far!"
Dou Weiyi's eyes widened, and she pointed a finger at Tang Guangjun, "You've got a really clever plan!"
If your county's security escort agency comes to transport goods, won't the agency's commercial tax make you a fortune?
"You're dreaming! I disagree! We have a security escort agency in our county!"
Tang Guangjun felt a little guilty after Dou Weiyi's words, but fortune favors the bold, and he wasn't afraid of Dou Weiyi.
If all else fails, we'll fight!
Whoever wins gets to use theirs!
The two immediately rolled up their sleeves, ready to put on a "big fight" in front of Gao Mengli!
Gao Mengli was speechless. She waved to A Li and said, "A Li, throw them both out."
…………
Tang Guangjun and Dou Weiyi were thrown out of the courtyard.
The two stared at each other.
Dou Wei stood with his hands on his hips, glaring down at Tang Guangjun, "It's all your fault, my golden thigh is angry."
Not to be outdone, Tang Guangjun stood up straight on tiptoe and retorted with her hands on her hips, "It's your fault! If it weren't for you, my sister-in-law would have agreed. You owe me!"
With a "sizzle," the courtyard gate opened again.
Ah Li watched the two arguing heatedly through the crack in the door, expressionless. "My master said, if you keep arguing, don't come here again. We won't be able to entertain you."
Dou Weiyi and Tang Guangjun were stunned when they heard what A Li said, and their expressions instantly became somewhat embarrassed.
The two quickly turned around and headed towards the village entrance, arguing as they walked.
One sentence for you, one sentence for me.
Upon reaching the village entrance, the two men put their arms around each other's shoulders, addressing each other as "Brother Tang" and "Brother Dou," and the two became good friends again.
After all, they were brothers who had gone through thick and thin together during the previous assassination attempt!
Although everyone was dead and no clues could be found, it did not affect their "true feelings".
The two of them came every day, without fail.
The villagers went from initially feeling awe towards the two men, to becoming numb, and finally to taking them for granted.
He even invited the two to his home for a casual meal when they passed by.
They didn't know until they ate it that they were so poor.
The villagers of Wangyue Village eat meat at every meal; they eat better than most...
Although they ate it with sorghum cornbread, it tasted good, and they weren't picky!
Little did they know that Zhuangzhuang and Wangyue Village were brothers-in-law, and the villagers got a five-copper discount on meat!
Buying this is a steal! This is a unique offer in their village, and the villagers certainly wouldn't miss out on such a good deal!
Zhuangzhuang's pork, although much cheaper, still allows him to earn a penny per pound!
We sold a lot, and the profits were about the same as before, so it wasn't a loss!
The two wandered around day and night, counting down the days.
On the seventh day, the two appeared at the entrance of the courtyard house early in the morning.
Gao Mengli opened the courtyard gate, her lips twitching slightly, "You guys... you're really early..."
Dou Weiyi chuckled, "The early bird catches the worm, we're in no hurry!"
Without further ado, the two strode across the threshold and ran into the yard.
Gao Mengli chuckled, shook her head, closed the door, and went into the courtyard.
When Lin Xi saw the two of them come in, she quickly set out breakfast.
Century egg and lean pork congee, with century egg mixed in, and a century egg and green pepper pounded together.
Dou Weiyi and Tang Guangjun's eyes widened when they saw the preserved egg dish on the table, and they quickly found a seat.
However, his eyes never left the things on the table.
Dou Weiyi carefully scooped a spoonful of congee with preserved egg and lean pork and put it in her mouth. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she began to drink it in large gulps.
While drinking the porridge, he mumbled, "Oh, this tastes amazing! The preserved egg is so smooth and has such a unique aroma. It's a perfect match with the lean meat!"
Seeing Dou Weiyi eating so heartily, Tang Guangjun quickly took a bite as well. The moment it entered his mouth, his eyes narrowed. "This flavor is so unique!"
The smooth congee is infused with the unique and rich aroma of preserved egg, making it savory and delicious!
The porridge even had shredded meat in it—I've never heard of eating it like this before!
The two couldn't wait to pick up a piece of cold preserved egg and put it in their mouths.
The moment they tasted it, the firm yet tender texture of the preserved egg made them unable to stop eating. In addition, the preserved egg had a unique slightly sour taste with a hint of spiciness from the cherry tomatoes. Immediately, the two of them opened their mouths wide and ate one piece after another!
Ah Li, holding a bowl, saw the two of them fighting fiercely and quickly joined the fray.
Seeing that the cold preserved egg salad was not edible, Gao Mengli turned to another dish and picked up a piece of preserved egg and green pepper salad from the side.
Gao Mengli picked up a piece of preserved egg and pounded green pepper with her chopsticks and put it in her mouth.
Instantly, the crisp and refreshing taste of the green peppers and the rich and creamy flavor of the preserved egg made her squint her eyes.
The addition of minced garlic and seasonings during the pounding process makes this dish more flavorful and rich, with just the right amount of spiciness, without masking the unique flavor of the preserved egg itself.
Once you've had a bite, you want a second.
Upon seeing this, Dou Weiyi and Tang Guangjun quickly moved to another spot and started pounding preserved eggs with green peppers!
Seeing that the two had left the cold preserved egg dish, Lin Xi quickly scooped the remaining two pieces of preserved egg from the plate into her own bowl.
He picked up a piece and placed it in Gao Mengli's bowl. "Mengli, try it!"
