Chapter 344: Just a Concubine (9)_1
Upon hearing that it took over half a year to produce the soy sauce and that it could only be found in the restaurants of the county town, where they wouldn’t sell it, people started coming over to buy it from the Pei family affordably in the town, eager to get a taste of this novelty.
The owner of the pork shop, after much bargaining, brought a rack of ribs to Pei Qin and bought two catties to take back home. At home, it was a cycle of braised pork belly, braised ribs, braised pork feet, and braised pork intestines, altering the dishes now and then.
Those who bought the soy sauce also wanted to try making braised pork, so they came to the butcher to get their meat, which significantly improved business for both the butchery and the fish stalls.
Pei Qin joked with the fishmonger, "The fish sales have increased; you should thank me later by sending over eight or ten fish!"
"Deal! I could send you eighty of those little white fish without any problem!" the fishmonger laughed along energetically.
The little white fish were only the size of a finger.
As the soy sauce started selling well, Fang Hui became a bit restless. The soy sauce her family consumed was obtained previously, after she shamelessly asked for a jar, and it was nearly finished now. Since last year, Pei Qin no longer proactively thought of their family for anything good.
Grandma Fang was furious that her own niece would scheme against Pei Qin, and given Pei Qin’s fiery temper, it wasn’t easy to persuade her otherwise, even if she wanted to.
