Chapter 164

"Stop!"

The village head roared.

Wei Cai's daughter-in-law has a stomach full of fire. Naturally, she won't speak well. She glares, "Dad, this is what lady Xia said. I just do it according to her words. Don't be angry with me if you have fire."

"If you dare to go back, don't change this vermicelli!"

The village head is usually a dignified person in the village. Today, he is disgraced by his daughter-in-law and very angry.

"Why?"

Wei Cai's daughter-in-law sticks her neck and refuses to accept.

"Since I am the head of a village, you should set an example."

The elder brother of Wei Cai's daughter-in-law saw that the village head was angry and quickly pulled his sister's sleeve, "you say less."

Then he accompanied the village head with a smile, "uncle in law, it's my fault. Don't be angry. I'll go and line up now."

With that, he stooped to push the unicycle up and back.

What else did Wei Cai's daughter-in-law want to say? He whispered, "if you don't want to be driven back to your mother's house, don't talk any more."

Let alone the head of a village, even if the parents in law in the family are so hated in public, they can't keep their face. You can't let your sister fall out with the village head just because you want to change this vermicelli.

Said, also pulled her.

Wei Cai's daughter-in-law is reluctant to keep up with her, and her face is very long.

When the people in the queue saw it, they immediately gave up the idea of jumping in the queue. The village head's family couldn't do it. They had better not look for it.

Xia Xi moved a stool to the village head, and went back to the yard to pour him a cup of hot water, "you sit down for a while, I'll register."

The village head was very angry and his face was very blue. Yesterday Liu Gen and today Wei Cai's daughter-in-law, all of them, did not make him worry.

After Wei Cai's daughter-in-law made such a fuss, all the people who came to exchange sweet potatoes were honest. They all carried their sweet potatoes on their backs and asked the two men to say that the ones who should exchange noodles should exchange noodles, and the others formed copper plates.

After half an hour's hard work, Xia Xi is about to finish work and let the people in the workshop go back to dinner.

A carriage came from a distance, and soon came to the side of the team and stopped.

People are curious to see the past, the coachman took the horse stool set, a man wearing a brocade cotton padded robe from the carriage down, about 30, his appearance is not pretty, but the eyes are very smart, eyes directly on the table of Xia Xi and the village head, and then stride over, to Xia Xi arched, "dare to ask this is Xia Niang?"

"I am, you are..."

"I'm Huo Nan, a businessman in Linxian County. I specialize in wholesale business. I heard that there was some vermicelli in your workshop a few days ago. I came here to have a look."

Angry by Wei Cai's daughter-in-law, the village head has no spirit. Hearing Huo Nan's words, he immediately gets up and gives him the stool. "Boss Huo, please sit down."

Not knowing what happened, Huo Nan couldn't sit down, and his face was full of businessmen's exclusive smile, "are you

"The head of our village, now he is in charge of the workshop."

Xia Xi introduced.

Huo Nan suddenly, arched his hand again, "village head, please pay more attention in the future."

"No, no, boss Huo will pay more attention to us in the future."

Huo Nan laughed and didn't take up the conversation.

He's a businessman. Of course, interests come first. He's only heard about vermicelli. He hasn't eaten it. It's a variable whether he can sell it or not. He just came to have a look today.

Xia Xi see his idea, put down the brush, "boss Huo, this way please."

Huo Nan walked into the courtyard with her. The village head thought about it, waved his hand to the two men who called sweet potatoes to stop, and he also went in.

Xia Xi is a woman's family. It's not good to go in with a man in this way. If he is on the side, he will be much better.

Xia Xi leads Huo Nan directly into the house. Today, there are a lot of vermicelli changed out, but there is a part left in the house. Xia Xi goes first, takes one out of a bundle of vermicelli and hands it to Huo Nan, "boss Huo, this is vermicelli."

Huo Nan took it, rubbed it with his hand, and then put it under his nose. There was no peculiar smell.

"It's still edible. Boss Huo might as well have a taste."

Huo Nan really put it in his mouth, bit it down, frowned immediately, "Lady Xia, is this too hard?"

"Because it's cold and the vermicelli is dry, it's better when it's warm."

Huo Nan hard scalp, just put into the mouth that a small bite down, chewed hard a few times, shaking his head, "no, too hard, simply can't eat."

The village head was afraid that he would break his mind to buy vermicelli, so he said, "this vermicelli, cooked is the best."

"Then..."

Huo Nan wants to say and stop, the meaning is self-evident.

The village head also looks at Xia Xi. As for cooking, no one in the village can match her skill.

Xia Xi didn't disappoint him. "It's already noon. If boss Huo doesn't dislike it, he'll stay and have a light meal. I'll make you a noodle dinner."

Huo Nan can't wait for it. He smiles and answers, "that's going to trouble lady Xia."

"Uncle, I can't serve you here. Take boss Huo to your house. I'll get some food."

Every day when she comes from the villa, Xia Xi brings some food materials back. There are many food materials in the villa. She can take whatever she wants.

The village leader cheerfully led out and announced that this morning's sweet potato harvest was over, let everyone go back, and then led Huo nan to his home.

Huo Nan's business is very big. His family has a lot of money, and he lives in top-notch houses. He thought that the village head's family is much better than the villagers. But when he got to the place, he didn't live as well as his family. He stopped for a while.

"What's the matter, boss Huo?"

The village head asked politely.

Huo Nan couldn't say what he disliked. He said with a smile, "nothing. I don't know how many people there are in your family."

"Just me and the old lady, the children have become a family, and they have been separated."

"You are very lucky."

Honan complimented and went into the yard.

"Old lady, old lady..."

The village head yelled twice, but did not hear the response. Then he remembered that he had asked the old woman to see Wei Qian's two children.

After a few steps, he opened the door and asked Huo nan to sit in the room. "Boss Huo, wait a moment. I'll call my old lady to come back and make a fire."

Huo Nan opened his mouth. Before he answered, the village head had turned around and ran out.

Honan

Bored looking at the house, the furnishings are very simple, a big Kang, Kang is a cabinet, there is a table, on the table with several tea bowls, I do not know how long it took, the tea bowls are discolored, the rest is two stools, and I also sat on one.

Huo Nan regretted that he had come in vain.

He has been in business for many years and has a keen eye on business opportunities. He thought it was a good chance to make a fortune, but he didn't expect to make a miscalculation this time.

The steps rang out in the yard soon, and the village head's daughter-in-law ran back. The village head directly instructed her to go to the kitchen, "hurry up, clean the pots and stoves, and prepare firewood."

The village head's daughter-in-law rushed to the kitchen to do some work. The village head came into the house, panting and sweating. When he came in to see Huo nangan sitting, he immediately patted his forehead. "Look at me, I forgot to pour water for you. Just a moment, I'll pour it for you."

"Don't bother."

Thinking of his changed tea bowls, Huo Nan stopped them and said with a smile, "I'll keep my stomach and wait for the vermicelli dinner."

He had a smile on his face, and the tone was just right. The village head didn't recognize his dislike, so he believed it. He said with a smile, "you have a good mouth today. No one in all the villages can match the food cooked by Lady Xia."

"Is it?"

Huo Nan didn't really ask, a country woman, how good is her craft.

The village head happily stroked his beard, "you'll know when you've tasted it."

Xia Xi made four dishes, fried noodles with carrots, minced pork noodles, cold noodles, and finally stewed pork noodles.

As soon as the hot and fragrant four course dishes came up, Huo Nan swallowed his saliva unconsciously.

He has been traveling all year round and has eaten a lot of famous food. But it's the first time that he has met such a well grounded and delicious food.

Some can't wait to pick up chopsticks, "then I'm not polite."

Xia Xi stretched out her hand, "no outsider, please feel free."

Huo Nan chopsticks directly out of the pork stewed noodles.

……

After a meal, Huo Nan felt that it was the most full meal he had eaten in so many years.

He took out his handkerchief, dried his mouth and patted the board. "I didn't bring the team here today. In this way, I'll come again tomorrow. You'll prepare 5000 Jin of noodles for me."

Pop!

The chopsticks in the village head's hand fell on the table. He opened his eyes and asked incredulously, "how much?"

"Five thousand catties first. In addition, you are preparing more. If I expected it to be good, I would come here a few times a year ago."

The village head's excited beard trembled and looked at Xia Xi, "this, this, this..."

Xia Xi is very calm and says, "sorry, boss Huo, we don't have so many workshops."

"How many?"

"It's more than 1000 Jin, and now we can exchange sweet potato for vermicelli. This morning, we've changed a lot. When tomorrow is over, there should be less than 1000 Jin left."

Huo Nan frowned. "It's too little."

Fearing that he said no, the village head raised his heart and winked at Xia Xi. What's the point of changing the vermicelli? I'll change it in a few days. Boss Huo is a big customer. If they keep it up, they won't worry about selling their vermicelli in the future.

Xia Xi didn't seem to see his sign and said, "I can't help it. You just saw it. I'm just a small workshop. I can't make so many vermicelli."

The head of the village was in a hurry. As soon as he was about to speak, Huo Nan said, "give me a thousand jin first. I can't lose any more."

"OK, I'll let them work in the evening. You can come tomorrow."

Seeing off Huo Nan, the village head stamped his feet anxiously, "Lady Xia, how can you..."

Xia Xi rarely saw him like this, holding the shoulder of the village head's daughter-in-law and laughing, "uncle, we really don't have so many vermicelli. It's useless for you to worry."

"But if you lose this big customer, you won't have time to cry."

"No way."

Xia Xi said firmly, Huo Nangang just look, she saw clearly, that is when businessmen smell huge business opportunities.

Not to mention 1000 Jin, even if only 500 Jin is left, Huo Nan will not give up.
