Chapter 378: Peanut Oil

 

Translator: Lonelytree

“It smells so good here.”

“Yeah, it smells like peanut oil.”

“L know theres a peanut oil shop around, but its at least 300 meters away from here.

Can the smell travel that far We have never smelled the production of peanut oil before.

So what changed today” Someone asked in puzzlement.

“Youre right.” The man beside him nodded.

“The shop extracts peanut oil every day, but we couldnt smell the fragrance at all in the past.

So what changed today”

On the roadside that connected Xing An Town and Xing Yin County were a rice milling shop and an oil-extracting shop.

People were gathered at the oil-extracting shop.

After all, it was peanut harvest season.

Many villagers came to have their peanuts crushed into peanut oil.

Peanut oil was very expensive.

It cost more than ten RMB per catty.

Many villagers wouldnt use the oil they extracted and would sell them for money.

Of course, the richer families would use the peanut oils for themselves or give them to friends.

Peanut oils had many benefits, especially for mothers who had just given birth.

There was a long line waiting for the peanut oil extraction that day.

Xiao Zhengyang hired people to pick more than 1000 catties of peanuts over for oil extraction.

After all, they didnt have an oil extractor at home.

Fourth Uncle Xiao knew the oil extractor boss, so he had already notified him.

They didnt need to line up.

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

“This is the plumpest peanut I have ever seen.

If this is the quality of your nuts, the oil will be very good.” Boss Zhang asked with a smile, “Boss, can you sell me some of your peanut oil later I wish to buy a few catties.” His familys daughter-in-law had given birth.

She had given the family a fat grandson.

He wanted to buy some peanut oil for his daughter-in-law.

“…” Xiao Zhengyang smiled and said, “Boss Zhang, we do plan to sell our peanut oil, but it wont be cheap.”

Boss Zhang frowned slightly.

“Then how much do you want to sell it for”

In his heart, he knew the quality of the peanuts was good, so he was not surprised to find them to have a higher asking price.

‘The market price of peanut oil was ten RMB per catty, so Boss Zhang assumed Xiao Zhengyangs peanut oil would be sold at twelve RMB per catty.

However, when the peanut oil flowed out, Boss Zhang was shocked.

He had worked in this place for more than a decade, he had not seen such pure peanut oil before.

This made him even more determined to buy a few catties.

‘The peanut oil would be perfect for some stir-fry.

However, when he asked for the price, he was shocked.

They were sold for fifty RMB per catty.

This was such a sky-high price!

The people around widened their eyes and looked in disbelief at Xiao Zhengyang.

“Oh my God.

How can it be so expensive Fifty RMB per catty Has he lost his mind Does he plan to rob us”

“Thats right.

It is too expensive.

The market price is 10 RMB per catty.

Even if their peanut oil has good quality, it should only be sold for one or two RMB extra.

How can he hike up the price so much”

The people around were all discussing how expensive Xiao Zhengyangs oil price was.

The people were tempted to buy the peanut oil earlier.

However, when they heard the price, they were unhappy.

“50 RMB per catty, this is robbery.”

“Yes.

I originally planned to buy some since they smell so nice, but we cant afford it.”

“Same.

50 RMB per catty is too expensive.”

Everyone was saying that the price of oil was too high.

Some people scolded Xiao Zhengyang for being so greedy.

They called him many names.

Xiao Zhengyang completely ignored the opinions of the people around him.

He smiled and said, “Im very sorry, everyone.

My familys products have always been expensive.

We still have some matters to attend to, so well be leaving first.”

When Xiao Zhengyang settled the bill with Boss Zhang and was about to leave, Boss Zhang was really tempted by this special, fragrant peanut oil.

He gritted his teeth and hardened his heart.

He offered 100 RMB to buy two catties of peanut oil.

Xiao Zhengyang gave him half a catty of oil for free because Boss Zhang was friends with his fourth brother.

‘When the people saw Xiao Zhengyang and his gang walk away, someone remembered and asked, “Boss Zhang, were those people from Taoyuan Village”

Boss Zhang nodded and said, “Yes.

They are from Taoyuan Village.

Why”

“Lremember now,” The man said with excitement, “Taoyuan Village has produced many university students.

One of them came back to the farm half a year ago.

“Some time ago, the strawberries she planted sold very well.

In the beginning, they sold for 45 RMB, 60 RMB per catty, and later, they sold for 230 RMB per catty.”

“But what is the connection” Someone next to him asked curiously, “What does this strawberry seller have to do with that group of people just now”

“If Im not wrong, that man should be the strawberry sellers father.” The man answered.

“Ah” The people were puzzled.

He continued, “The man said that his familys products have always been expensive.

“Similarly, the strawberry seller has a vegetable store that sells very expensive vegetables.

Take cabbage, for example.

We buy cabbage for two cents a catty in town, but do you know how much his family sells a catty of cabbage for”

“How much” This obviously aroused the interest of many people.

“Two RMB,” he said, “And the cabbage is the cheapest product they have to offer!”

“What” This was really surprising.

“So, when he said their peanut oil is sold for 50 RMB per catty, it is because he believes the oil is worth the price.” Then, the man said, “No.

I have to buy the peanut oil now.

If not, I might be able to get it for 50 RMB per catty in the future!”

With that, he ran in Xiao Zhengyangs direction.

People were intrigued, but they really couldnt bear to fork out 50 RMB to buy oil.

This was just normal peanut oil.

But they had no idea how extraordinary this peanut oil would be.

Boss Zhang and Sheng Dali, who ran to buy the oil from Xiao Zhengyang, were the first to find out.

‘When they used the peanut oil they bought from Xiao Zhengyang to cook vegetables, the smell was insane.

It made their neighbors keep sniffing the air.

Their neighbors even poked their heads out to follow the smell.

The smell was too alluring!

Someone followed the smell and arrived at Sheng Dalis place.

He immediately asked in puzzlement, “Dali, what is your family cooking Why does it smell so good”

Sheng Dali was picking up a piece of cabbage with his chopsticks and putting it into his mouth.

When he heard the persons words, he looked at the three dishes on the table.

One was stir-fried cabbage, one was braised eggplant, and the other was beef with green peppers.

He said doubtfully, “Its nothing special.”

‘The visitor looked at the three dishes on his table, frowned slightly, and asked suspiciously, “Sheng Dali, did you see me coming and hide the delicious dish”

Sheng Dalis wife smiled and said, “Listen to what youre saying.

Are we such petty people Plus, my husband is telling the truth.

We only made these three dishes.”

“Huh But I followed the fragrance to your house.” The man said, “How can these three home-cooked dishes smell so fragrant”

Sheng Dali was stunned at first.

A moment later, he came to his senses and slapped the back of his head, “Oh, I know why! My wife cooked the dishes with a special kind of peanut oil!”

“Peanut oil” This persons face was full of disbelief.

“What kind of peanut oil can make the cooking smells so good”

“Dou Dou, go and get a pair of chopsticks.

Let your uncle Li have a taste of these dishes,” Sheng Dali instructed his youngest son.

After Dou Dou took out a pair of chopsticks, Sheng Dali smiled and said, “Try it.”

‘When Li San picked up a piece of beef with the chopsticks and ate it, his eyes widened.

He said incredulously, “This… this…”

Sheng Dali smiled proudly and said, “Now, you know why.”
