Chapter 378： Peanut oil (two more)

"Well, it smells so good here."

"Yes, it smells good. It smells like squeezed peanut oil."

"I know that there is a peanut oil squeezer in front. But, there is at least two or three hundred meters away from here, can the fragrance float so far? There used to be peanut oil pressed every day, and we have never smelled the scent. Today, why is there a peanut? The fragrance floated over." Someone said puzzledly.

"It seems like this is what you said." The neighbor next door said, "Peanut oil is squeezed every day in front of us. We can't smell the fragrance at all here. Why is it so smelling all of a sudden today?"

...

In Xing'an Town, there is a rice milling shop and an oil press shop on the side of the road leading to the county seat.

The oil press shop that is being talked about is here.

Today this oil press shop is very lively.

Although it is usually very lively, after all, it is the peanut harvest season, and many villagers wait for the peanuts to dry before picking them out for oil extraction.

Peanut oil is expensive.

A dozen yuan per catty.

Many villagers simply reluctant to eat the peanut oil squeezed out, so they want to sell it for some money.

Of course, for families with better family conditions, the peanut oil squeezed out can be kept at home for consumption or given away.

At this time, peanut oil is best given away, especially to those who have just given birth to a child in confinement.

There are long lines waiting to squeeze oil every day.

Today, Xiao Zhengyang took people to pick more than a thousand catties of peanuts and came here to squeeze oil.

After all, there is no oil press at home.

Fourth Uncle Xiao knew the boss of the oil press and had greeted him early.

So, instead of queuing up, pick peanuts and squeeze the oil directly.

When the oil press boss saw the peanuts, his eyes lit up.

"This is the fullest peanut I have ever seen without a bad peanut. The peanut oil that is squeezed out according to the quality of your peanuts, it must be very good."

The boss of the oil press shop Zhang smiled and asked, "Boss, will you sell the peanut oil that will be squeezed out in a while? If it can be sold, I want to buy a few kilograms of peanut oil from yours."

There is a daughter-in-law who is in confinement in his family. She gave him a fat grandson just a few days ago.

Naturally, they treat their worthy daughter-in-law better.

"..." Xiao Zhengyang said with a smile, "Boss Zhang, I can sell peanut oil, but it won't be cheap."

Boss Zhang wrinkled slightly, "Not cheap? How much do you want to sell?"

In his mind, it is not surprising that the peanut oil is of good quality and higher price.

The current market price of peanut oil is ten yuan a catty, so his peanut oil is estimated to be one or two yuan more expensive, and it sells for eleven or two yuan a catty.

However, when he squeezed out the peanut oil, he was stunned.

He has squeezed peanut oil for more than ten years, but today is the first time to squeeze such fragrant peanut oil.

This made him more determined to want to buy a few kilograms back.

Such fragrant peanut oil, even if it is not for the eldest daughter-in-law, used for cooking, the dish must be unusually fragrant.

However, he never expected that the peanut oil he estimated would be so expensive.

That's not one or two yuan more expensive, but several times more expensive.

Fifty yuan a catty.

Fifty yuan a catty of peanut oil, such a sky-high price of peanut oil, is almost to be grabbed.

The people around him widened their eyes and looked at Xiao Zhengyang who was reporting oil prices incredibly.

"Oh my God, this oil is too expensive, right? Fifty yuan a catty. Didn't you see the money before, planning to grab it?"

"That's right. This is too expensive. Obviously the current price of peanut oil is ten yuan per catty. Even if their peanut oil is of good quality, it is more expensive to sell. It is reasonable to be more expensive by one or two yuan. , He is tens of yuan more expensive."

...

The people around were talking about the oil price that Xiao Zhengyang gave was really too expensive.

Of course, the people around here also smelled the scent, moved their minds, and wanted to buy a few kilograms to eat.

Unexpectedly, this oil sold too expensive.

This makes them feel dissatisfied.

"Fifty yuan a catty, this is money grabbing."

"Yeah, grab the money. Originally, I smelled his oil and planned to sell it for a few kilograms. But now, it seems that we can't afford it at all."

"I originally planned to buy a few catties, but fifty yuan a catty is too expensive, I can't afford it."

...

Everyone was saying that the price of oil was too expensive, and some people scolded Xiao Zhengyang for not seeing money.

Xiao Zhengyang simply ignored the opinions of people around him, he smiled and said.

"I'm sorry everyone, my things have always been sold very expensive. We have to leave beforehand."

When Xiao Zhengyang settled the bill with Boss Zhang and was about to leave, Boss Zhang was really moved by these special fragrant peanut oils, and when he gritted his teeth and cruelly, he sold two catties of peanut oil for 100 yuan.

Xiao Zhengyang also gave him half a catty of oil because of the friendship between Boss Zhang and his fourth brother.

When everyone looked at Xiao Zhengyang and others' courageous back, someone remembered.

He suddenly asked Boss Xiang Zhang, "Boss Zhang, were those people from Taoyuan Village just now?"

Boss Zhang nodded and said, "Yes. They are from Taoyuan Village. What's wrong?"

"I remember." This person said with a bit of excitement, "A college student came out of the Taoyuan Village family. This college student has been back to work six months ago.

Some time ago, the strawberries she planted were very popular. From the beginning it was sold for forty-five yuan, 60 yuan a catty, and later two hundred and three yuan a catty, in short, the more it sold, the more expensive it became. "

"Hey, no, what do you mean by this?" someone next to him asked suspiciously, "What does the strawberry seller have to do with the gang just now?"

"It's related, it's a big deal." This person said, "If I hadn't guessed, that person just now was the real dad of the college student who went home to farm."

"Huh?" Someone seemed puzzled.

He went on to say, "The man said just now that his family's things have always been very expensive.

I heard that the person who grows strawberries not only sells strawberries very expensively, but even the ordinary vegetables we usually eat are several times more expensive than in the market.

Just talk about this Chinese cabbage. We usually buy two cents per catty in Wei town, and 30 cents per catty in the county vegetable market, but do you know how many per catty his cabbage sells? "

"How much?" This seemed to arouse the interest of many people.

"Two yuan," he said, "this Chinese cabbage is still the cheapest dish in their family."

"what?"

It's amazing.

"So, he said that the peanut oil of fifty yuan a catty should be his family's oil really worth the price."

When this man said this, he suddenly said,

"No, his oil is too fragrant. Even if it is expensive now, I will buy it, otherwise, I am afraid that 50 yuan will not be able to buy his oil in the future."

After that, he ran in the direction where Xiao Zhengyang had left.

Everyone was curious about what this person said about the family, but it was really reluctant to let them spend fifty yuan to buy oil.

Peanut oil, which kind of peanut oil is not peanut oil, it can still be eaten out of flowers.

Haha, I can really eat flowers.

The people who came around were all from the neighbors on this street, including the boss Zhang and the Sheng Dali who ran away to buy oil.

When they used the peanut oil they bought from Xiao Zhengyang to stir fry, the smell could be said to be fragrant for ten miles. The neighbors around them wrinkled their noses and sniffed from time to time, and they poked their heads out from time to time, trying to figure out what it smelled like. delicious.

Don't blame them for being so caring, the taste is really slanderous.

Someone followed the fragrance and found it was floating from Sheng Dali, and suddenly asked in confusion, "Dali, what does your family do, why is it so fragrant?"

Sheng Dali was holding a chopsticks cabbage into his mouth. Hearing what the person said, he looked at the three dishes on the table, one sauteed cabbage, one roasted eggplant, and one beef stir-fried green pepper.

He said puzzledly, "I didn't make any dishes? Just these three dishes."

When the visitor saw the three dishes on his table, he frowned slightly and asked suspiciously.

"Just these three dishes, Sheng Dali, you didn't see me here, and where did you hide the delicious dishes?"

The wife of Sheng Dali smiled and said, "Look at what you said, are we such stingy people? Also, our family really only cooks these three dishes, how can there be any delicious dishes?"

"That's not right. I traced the fragrance to your home." The visitor said in a puzzled manner, "If your family only cooked these three dishes, the fragrance would not be floating for ten miles, even someone as far away as me. You can smell it."

Sheng Dali was taken aback for a moment. After a while, he reacted, patted his head with his hand, and said,

"Oh, I see. Today, my food is made of peanut oil, so the dishes are fragrant."

"Peanut oil?" The man was full of disbelief, "Whose peanut oil makes dishes so fragrant?"

"Go around, get out a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and give you Uncle Li a taste of these dishes." Sheng Dali told his young son.

After Dadou took out a pair of bowls and chopsticks, Sheng Dali smiled and said, "You have a try."

When Li San took a piece of beef into his mouth with chopsticks, his eyes became round when he stared.

He said incredulously, "This...this..."

Sheng Dali smiled proudly and said, "Well, it's so sweet."
