MTL - Rebirth Married The Control Group Fulang-Chapter 40
"Brother He, are you digging wild vegetables again?"
Xu He finished planting the vegetable seedlings in the field early in the morning, and went straight to the other side of the mountain without turning back to go home. He hung a hollow gourd obliquely around his waist. When the weather warmed up, Zhang Fangyuan bought two gourds from the city. One was used to dig wild vegetables for him to use as a water maker, and the other he filled with water to take to the city.
Seeing him tidying up like this, the folks knew that he was going to dig wild vegetables.
"Um."
"Is the wild vegetable selling well recently?"
Xu He said: "The farm households in Linsiyang City sell a lot of wild vegetables, and they can't afford the price. They just treat it as a candle."
"Some income is also a good thing."
Xu He simply chatted with him for a few words and then walked away.
The husband who was pulling the land chatted with the villagers in another field across the field: "I am afraid that the several mountains outside the village in our village will have to be dug by Brother He. I said to pick some bracken. Go home and eat cold salad, but when you go to the mountain nest where no one goes, it’s all piles that have been picked.”
"Hey, those couple seem to have lost money. You said there are only two people in the family now, what are you doing with so much money?"
"It's convenient for a family to have a carriage to get in and out of the city. Why don't you think about making money. The wild vegetables you dig are sold in the city the next day, and the unsold ones are brought back or dried or pickled. I went to the butcher's house the other day. Borrow the hoe, did you not see that there are several jars of kimchi in the kitchen, and all the bracken and bamboo shoots and fungus are drying in the yard. Xu He even grabbed a handful of dried fungus for me."
"Don't tell me, I haven't paid much attention to it before. Xu He is quite capable. On the contrary, I haven't seen her sister busy."
"Who knows."
After April, the mountains and forests became more and more green. Xu Hejue couldn't dig the spring vegetables twice. As soon as the weather was hot in summer, all the wild vegetables on the hillside would be old, and no new ones would come out. However, this kind of relying on the mountains to eat is not a long-term livelihood, and it is great to give farmers a chance to breathe.
Fortunately, their village is far away from the city, otherwise there must be a lot of villagers who dig wild vegetables to sell, so why would he just dig all the fresh ones and choose wild vegetables at will. Now only the villagers in this village will dig some to eat back. Although there are some people fighting, it is definitely not as fierce as those villagers in the adjacent city.
The next day, he took fresh wild vegetables and the fungus from the long tung tree tree at home and went to the city with Zhang Fangyuan to set up a stall.
"When it rains, the fungus grows very long. Look at the fungus growing on a tung tree at home, which is enough to pick a basket."
Xu He hugged the basket and showed off the soft fungus with Zhang Fangyuan.
At the beginning, it was growing here and there, but not many. When it was mature, Xu He picked it off and dried it. It was the first time that it had grown enough to be sold.
Zhang Fangyuan flicked the reins, and said sourly: "I took some effort to carry the tree back, but I haven't eaten the long fungus once. Those masters in the city who are willing to spend money are better than me."
Xu He was helpless: "There are still some small ones on the tree that I didn't pick. When they get bigger, I'll pick them off and make you some fungus shredded meat, okay?"
Only now did Zhang Fangyuan have a smile on his face: "Success. This time I sold a quarter of the animals I bought to the Chen family, and we can sell all the meat today. The Chen family also asked me to buy and bring some things. Go back, I will come to you when the meat is sold out, let's go buy together."
He is a businessman himself, but he doesn't know how to bargain with others. This matter depends on Xu He, so he can save some money. In fact, this is just a superficial talk, and it is bitter to say it, because he has no money to buy things at all.
His daughter-in-law was embarrassed to manage his money at first, and she was afraid that he would not have enough to spend every day. If he went out alone in the morning, he would prepare lunch and take it with him, and he would have to give him an extra half of the money for later. Prepare for expenses from time to time, for fear that he will lose face if he has no money.
As time went on and the two of them were nestled in bed, Xu He said that he was too lazy to count the half-hang money every day. Listen, is this a legitimate reason? But lying on the bed, Zhang Fangyuan naturally obeyed everything he asked for, so he agreed.
After a few days, the two of them were lying on the bed again. Xu He said that he had a surplus of 20 Wen, and he had already formed the habit of thrift. Change ten texts to see, if it really doesn't work, then go back up. This time, he said it nicely, but whether it sounds nice or not is second to none. The most important thing is on the bed, so he agreed again.
So, after half a month of happiness, he didn't know how much he promised Xu He on the bed... Now that he didn't give him a penny, he would use the money from the butcher to buy anything he needed to spend, and report it when he came back.
The little brother said that he didn't think carefully before, that he would get money by selling meat, and if he was in a hurry, he would use the money from selling meat, which was not bad. Anyway, every piece of meat sold is at least ten or twenty cents, and the money in hand has never been cut off.
Zhang Fangyuan’s thinking is beautiful. He bought oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar before. When he went back and reported it, Xu He didn’t say much, but he would check the market price carefully. He knows the difference between the two soy sauce shops in the east and west of the city, so he knows the prices of the things in the shops, so he can't be fooled at all.
The day before yesterday, he used the money from selling the butcher to buy two taels of wine, and he found out when he went back to check the bill the same day.
As soon as that little face collapsed, he could not speak a word to him for three days when he got angry.
Up to now, it has been a breeze, no different from that post station, the copper coin entering the station is only temporarily stored in his pocket, after all, it will be put at the terminal station.
Zhang Fangyuan couldn't help sighing. Although he boiled frogs in warm water, he was used to abusing money. He was restrained for a while. It would be a lie to say that he didn't feel uncomfortable, but he opened his mouth to let others manage the money. Is it possible that he can still get it back? ?
"Okay, then I'll wait for you in West Market."
Zhang Fangyuan came back to his senses and nodded. He could find the place where Xu He sold vegetables. Driving the carriage, instead of taking people to the meat market, he went directly to Xishikou to help him move his things down, and then went to the meat market to set up a stall.
Now the couple set up their own stalls, but they are harmonious.
"Is the one driving the car just now Master Che or your husband?"
When Xu He went to the stall he often set up with vegetables on his back, a woman who came early asked him with a smile.
"It's my husband." Xu He didn't hide it.
"That's great, I'll send you here."
Xu He smiled, and the stall owner who greeted him seemed to want to say something more, but after thinking about it, he closed his mouth again. Xu He felt a little strange, but didn't ask further.
As soon as the stall opened, old customers came to buy vegetables. A basket of fresh fungus immediately attracted residents in the city. Fungi are rarely sold, and it is not easy to find them, not to mention they grow fresh after the rain. Take it back and stir-fry the meat with cold salad, it is very fresh and crisp.
Knowing that it was easy to sell, Xu He also raised the price a bit. This mountain delicacy is no less expensive than pork. Buyers picked a handful or two and went home to make fresh ones, but there were few buyers, but there were many buyers, and the basket was empty within half an hour.
More than three catties of fungus, twenty Wen a catty, sold for more than sixty Wen.
If another person wants it, he will sell it at a low price and sell the rest.
The corners of Xu He's mouth curled up. The few things in the stalls really sell well, but it's a pity that they can't be sold continuously like winter bamboo shoots.
He thought that with so much money, he could buy cloth later to make clothes for Zhang Fangyuan.
Before he could stop his thoughts, someone kicked his basket and flew it flying, and the remaining fungus scattered all over the floor.
He looked up and saw two roe-headed men standing in front of his stall with their hands behind their backs and legs shaking, looking around as if they were chewing something.
Before Xu He could open his mouth, the man kicked over his basket again, and a few bundles of spring buds inside rolled out, was trampled on, and rotted to the ground between left and right grinds.
"Who asked you to set up a stall here?"
Xu He was short-tempered, and the sudden change caught him off guard. He knew that these two people were here to find fault, and his tone could not be kind: "This place is full of stalls, can't we just set up stalls!?"
"He's not too hot-tempered. Others can show off here, but you just can't." The man stretched out his hand and poked Xu He's shoulder hard every word, with a hooligan look on his face.
"Why!"
The man kicked the basket again, his face was full of flesh: "I don't like you, what reason do you have?"
I saw someone making trouble nearby, and no one came forward to persuade them. They were all from small farmers, and they didn't dare to stand out. Instead, they moved their stalls secretly.
Xu He guessed that he was blocking someone else's way of making money, and now he was looking for someone to make trouble, and he suddenly thought of the little brother who set up a stall who said he wanted someone to come.
Sure enough, the little brother suddenly folded his hands, came in from the stall with a look of fun on his face, and looked Xu He up and down: "Hey, there are a lot of sales today, right? Tsk tsk, look at the vegetable lanes all over the place." Yes, you have to clean it yourself later, otherwise the government in charge of the market will look at this mess and want to expel people and not allow stalls, so don't hurt the big guy."
Xu He's chest heaved very quickly. Although he had been bullied before in the village, he had never met such unreasonable people in the city. He said: "The people from the yamen came just in time, and I will sue you for making trouble for no reason! "
"Hey, you still want to sue us. You haven't cleaned up properly this morning, and you are still very fierce."
The two men laughed obscenely, intending to go forward and drag Xu He.
Xu He didn't expect the chaos in the city to be so terrifying, he subconsciously wanted to run, but turned around and slammed into a wall of people with a bang.
Zhang Fangyuan rubbed his chest: "It hurts."
He stretched out his hand to stabilize Xu He's waist, and held Xu He by his side like a baby.
Xu He let out a sigh of relief without even noticing it himself, he was okay just now, but for some reason he suddenly felt wronged when he saw Zhang Fangyuan, raised his eyes and looked at him pitifully, his eyes turned red uncontrollably stand up.
Seeing that Zhang Fangyuan felt as if his heart had been punched, he immediately yelled, "Who the **** is bullying me and my wife with such blind eyes!"
When the two men saw the person coming, their faces turned as if they were frosted. They froze and lost their expressions. They wanted to hide behind them inertially, and almost stepped on the little brother who was making trouble behind them.
"What are you doing, the three of us can't do those two? Brother Gou, didn't you say that I'm the one to make the decision!"
Regardless of the little brother's twisting, the man pushed him aside, and made a smile that was uglier than crying.
"Zhang...Brother Zhang..."
"Brother Zhang? You kicked my daughter-in-law's place, and you still call me brother with a shy face? You are sick!"
Zhang Fangyuan suppressed his smile, and suddenly his expression became serious. The two men were so frightened that their legs softened immediately: "Yes, yes, I am sick, we both are sick."
"It's a waste of acquaintance if I don't treat you today!"
Zhang Fangyuan suddenly grabbed the collar of one of the men, grabbed the other again, and dragged him into the alley. Xu He chased after two steps, but was stopped by Zhang Fangyuan. After a while, he heard punches, kicks and crying in the alley.
The little brother who was still arrogant just now turned pale with fright, and everyone in the market swallowed their saliva. No one dared to speak out when there was a disturbance before, and now no one dared to speak out. Hearing the horrifying screams, They all looked at their stalls like quails.
About a quarter of an hour later, the two men ran out with bruises and swollen faces, covered their chests and protected their heads, and kept apologizing to Xu He: "I'm sorry, sister-in-law, I'm sorry...I'm sorry. We really don't know our eyes Taishan, you can set up a stall here in the future."
Xu He saw that the attitudes of the two of them were in a hurry, lowered his eyes slightly, and turned his head to look at Zhang Fangyuan who was beside him for help.
"roll!"
As if they were about to be released, the two men hurriedly grabbed the little brother who was looking for trouble, and ran away without a trace.
