Chapter 527 Selling bamboo fungus and spring bamboo shoots

Qiao Ran brought down a basket of bamboo fungus and a sack of bamboo shoots from the carriage, and said to shopkeeper Chen:

"You don't have to be disappointed, I have other good things here, I guarantee you will be satisfied."

"Oh, is there anything else good? Let me take a look."

Shopkeeper Chen was very curious. He knew that the things Miss Qiao brought out must be good things.

Seeing the basket full of skirt-like fungi, he exclaimed: "Hey! This is really good stuff! Where did you get so many?"

"Oh, shopkeeper Chen knows this bamboo fungus?"

Qiao Ran was a little surprised.

But then I thought about it, this is normal, after all, we are in the capital!

Shopkeeper Chen nodded: "Of course I know it, bamboo ginseng! This thing is precious!"

Qiao Ran was surprised: "Bamboo ginseng? Isn't it called bamboo fungus?"

Shopkeeper Chen smiled and said: "This thing has several names. We people in the capital generally call it bamboo ginseng. It is said to have many benefits to the human body just like ginseng! And the price is not cheap. In addition, it is also called bamboo sheng. , Bamboo Girl, Veiled Fungus, and is even honored as the 'Flower of Mountain Treasures', 'Queen of Fungi', 'Fairy in Snow Skirt', etc., which shows how precious it is."

Qiao Ran couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised: "As expected of the shopkeeper of a famous restaurant in the capital, shopkeeper Chen is really well-informed. No one in our village knows this treasure!"

Shopkeeper Chen laughed and said: "As a restaurant owner, you must be more exposed to food. Our restaurant also collects bamboo ginseng, but few people bring it to the restaurant for sale, and they are usually dried and not fresh. .”

"Because bamboo ginseng is rare, it would be good if you can pick a dozen or dozens of them. Everyone dries them at home and sells them in drug stores."

"The stewards of those big families will buy it to make medicinal diets and soups. Restaurants like us can't even use this bamboo ginseng as a signature dish. We really can't collect so much."

Qiao Ran nodded.

This bamboo fungus is indeed a good thing and has many benefits for the human body. It was called bamboo ginseng in ancient times. It seems that the doctors here have also studied the effectiveness of bamboo fungus more thoroughly.

It's better this way, and she doesn't need to think of ways to sell it.

She asked shopkeeper Chen: "If I can send two bamboo baskets of bamboo fungus here every day, can you eat it? What's the price of bamboo fungus?"

Shopkeeper Chen was a little surprised: "Two baskets a day? Have you found the nest of bamboo ginseng?"

Then he thought again, Miss Qiao's opportunities are unparalleled. She can even get the rare blue water fish in the world, let alone the bamboo ginseng that everyone knows?

Qiao Ran smiled: "Absolutely. I did find a large bamboo forest with a lot of bamboo fungus in it. But that bamboo forest is not in our Devil's Valley. We have to climb a very steep and far mountain. Most people can't find it. . However, I have already planted some in the bamboo forest in our Devil’s Valley. This thing reproduces very quickly. It won’t be long before we can also pick bamboo fungus in our Devil’s Valley.”

Shopkeeper Chen looked at her with admiration: "Miss Qiao is extraordinary. Only you will have this kind of opportunity."

Then he nodded and answered the question: "You can eat it, you can eat it. If you look at the customer flow of our restaurant, it will definitely not be a problem to eat two baskets of bamboo ginseng. As for the price of bamboo ginseng, it is divided into dry and wet types. The wet one costs 500 silver per catty, and the dry one costs two taels of silver per catty."

Qiao Ran nodded, the price is very reasonable.

Bamboo fungus is very light when dried. Four pounds of dried bamboo shoots weigh less than one pound.

However, the wet ones are not easy to store and will go bad quickly, while the dry ones need to be soaked in warm water before they can be used for cooking.

Therefore, pharmacies usually collect dried bamboo fungus, while restaurants sell fresh bamboo fungus, which is more cost-effective and makes the dishes more delicious.

"Okay, then I will send two baskets of bamboo fungus here every day during this period until the season of bamboo fungus is over."

Qiao Ran said, opened the sack again, took out a bamboo shoot and asked:

"Would you like bamboo shoots? The spring bamboo shoots are just right now, tender and crispy, and delicious!"

Shopkeeper Chen stretched his head and saw that all the spring bamboo shoots in the sack were tender, and said happily:

"I want it! Now is the peak season for eating spring bamboo shoots. Such good spring bamboo shoots can be used to prepare many dishes!"

In the end, Juxianlou bought Qiao Ran’s basket of bamboo shoots and a sack of spring bamboo shoots.

Shopkeeper Chen saw that there was a basket of bamboo ginseng and a bag of spring bamboo shoots in her carriage, and wanted to buy them both.

Qiao Ran said it was going to be sent to the General's Mansion, so Shopkeeper Chen couldn't force it.

If someone wants to give it to his grandparents, he can't cut it off.

But when he thought that starting from tomorrow, he would receive two baskets of bamboo ginseng and spring bamboo shoots every day, shopkeeper Chen became happy again.

Bamboo ginseng is a good thing, and those wealthy diners like it very much. They often ask for bamboo ginseng chicken soup, no matter how much it costs.

But this thing is rare, and only those mountain people who accidentally discover it will collect it and sell it for money.

Otherwise, it would be very difficult to make large-scale regular purchases.

I really didn’t expect that Miss Qiao could not only raise blue water fish by herself, but also find a way to grow bamboo ginseng by herself.

From now on, you can make a lot of money just by relying on these two treasures!

And how lucky he was to be able to get acquainted with Miss Qiao and reach a cooperation, which gave Juxianlou an advantage and a huge advantage that others did not have.

I'm afraid that Juxian Restaurant will become the most famous restaurant in Beijing soon!

Hotpot! Pickled fish! What a spicy dish! Bamboo ginseng! Blue water fish!

These are truly unique signature dishes that only their Juxian Restaurant has!

What other restaurants can compare with Juxian Restaurant?

Thinking that Juxian Restaurant will soon become the most famous restaurant in Beijing and even in Dayue, it will be able to make a lot of money for the owner.

As the head shopkeeper of Juxianlou, he will definitely be praised by his boss, and shopkeeper Chen is so happy that he feels so happy.

Qiao Ran took the forty taels of silver from today's basket of bamboo fungus and a sack of spring bamboo shoots, and couldn't help but think,

If an ordinary farm girl can earn dozens of taels of silver by digging bamboo fungus and spring bamboo shoots for half a day, how lucky she must be. She can earn as much as other people's whole family earns in a year in one day!

However, as an invisible rich person who already owns a lot of money, earning these dozens of taels of silver is really nothing to be thankful for.

If she didn't dig these bamboo fungus and bamboo shoots, she would have endless money to spend.

However, who told her to like the feeling of satisfaction when harvesting?

However, she likes to collect bamboo fungus and bamboo shoots, but doesn't want to drive a carriage to the capital every day.

Just when she was thinking about whether to go back and tell her second and third uncles to let them deliver the goods in the future, shopkeeper Chen had already suggested thoughtfully:

"Miss Qiao, it's spring now. I heard that you are very busy, and I don't want you to waste any more time. Otherwise, I will send a boy to drive the carriage to your house every day to buy bamboo fungus and bamboo shoots. This way I don’t have to bother you running around every day.”
