MTL - Rebirth Married The Control Group Fulang-Chapter 55

In the afternoon, Zhang Fangyuan came back a little early, and went with an empty cart. When he came back, he had already brought back a cart full of pork.

After lunch time in the tea shed, there were only two people resting their feet, so Xu He went to see how Zhang Fangyuan was looking to buy this time when he was free.

"It's half unloaded. It's still early today. Let's set up a small stall here and hang a few pieces of pork. If someone wants to buy it after watching it, they can sell some."

Xu He saw that the pork this time was relatively thin, but there were no major festivals or busy farming seasons recently, and the number of farmers in the countryside did not buy much meat. It mainly depends on the buyers in the city, and the thinner pork is better sold to the city people. He felt that Zhang Fangyuan's suggestion was quite good, so he immediately helped out, and took out some palm leaves from the house to rub the rope to wear the meat.

Zhang Fangyuan said: "I brought back half of the pork blood this time, and left it in the tea shed to cook."

Xu He thought to himself that this person would also make plans: "Okay."

Zhang Fangyuan went into the stove again, and took a look at the tea that was still full in the morning, but now it was only a quarter full, and there were only two sides of the big pot of bean curd left. He was a little thirsty, but instead of drinking tea, he drank some bean curd water with a ladle.

"Is business good at noon?"

"It's okay. The best thing to sell is tea and bean curd. Most of the people passing by are villagers, and the affordable ones are better."

Zhang Fangyuan nodded, and it was true that the villagers were reluctant to spend money: "Then we will sell another pot of bean curd tomorrow."

Xu He responded, and said again: "I'm going to make some saozi later, and I happen to have fresh pork wrapped in Chaoshou wontons, so I'll have pasta tomorrow."

"Can."

Zhang Shiyue watched the young couple enter the tea shed, so she boiled another pot of boiling water in the stove, brewed half a pot of tea, and made a large pot of sugar water outside. People passing by were hungry and hungry. Reluctant to spend money on food, some are like drinking a pot of sweet water on their way, not because it tastes good, but because it feels so sweet that they fill their stomachs.

Naturally, this sweet water is more expensive than tea.

Xu He fanned Zhang Fangyuan for a while, but the end under the banyan tree was actually cool.

When the sun is hot at noon, the plaster on the official road can be rolled up by the wheels of the carriage. Even if there is a little wind, it will be cooked and scalded. The shade under the tree is different. The wind blows again and again. Yes, and it's as cool as coming from a deep well.

Xu He took out a small abacus to calculate the money, and the money in his pocket from today to now is less than two hundred cash.

Let’s count the money spent before and after opening the tea shed. It took more than 2,000 cash to hire people. The materials for the construction of the tea shed did not cost money. They were all wood picked up in Gongshan and trees cut from my own hill. Pots, pans, tables, chairs and benches cost another nearly two thousand dollars.

There are all kinds of miscellaneous things in front and back, and there must be five thousand Wen. Xu He took a deep breath, he spent a lot of money, but he went to the city to check the price of the shop, and he knew that it would be a good deal to spend five thousand cash until the opening.

If you want to open a business in the city, you have to double or triple the money.

But the money spent is less, but the passenger flow is not as good as in the city, and the daily turnover is not impressive. From the point of view, it is better to set up a stall in the city to sell stewed vegetables.

But he also knew that he couldn't just look in front of him. After suffering the hardship of setting up a stall, he knew that the business on the other side was destined to not last long, and it would be best to accept it as soon as it was good.

Furthermore, he likes the feeling of guarding the tea shed now, having his own shop and not having to compete with the people in the city.

After Zhang Fangyuan calmed down, he said: "You can sell pork. I want to doze off here, so I might as well go to the fields to touch fish and shrimp."

Xu He accepted the small abacus: "Be careful not to trample on other people's seedlings, it's the month when the ears will start."

"I'll go to Sibo's field to find. If there are many crucian carp dishes in Dominger's shop."

"If you want to eat, just say it, just say it's for the shop."

Zhang Fangyuan laughed and picked up a bucket, dragged Xiao Hei who was still grazing, and went.

"Ah Yuan, you're so big that you're so skinny. If you become a father in the future, you'll teach the child badly." Zhang Shiyue just entered the tea shed when she saw someone rushing outside.

Xu He was silent when he heard the words. He didn't know when he and Zhang Fangyuan would have children. If there were more than one child, it would be cute to put them in front of the tea shed if they could walk.

Zhang Shiyue seems to have seen through his thoughts: "Don't worry, you and A Yuan have not been married for a year. Xiao'e and I have been married for many years before we have a daughter. This child also depends on fate. .”

It was rare for Xu He to ask too much: "Then should I just go to the Guanyin Temple to ask? It's not far from the left and right."

But Zhang Shiyue waved his hand: "Ah Yuan is such a strong young man, and you are in good health, so you don't need to ask for it. If you haven't made plans in three or two years, it won't be too late."

Xu He was a little bit hesitant: "However, many people in the village used to say that I was thin and had a bad face, and that I was not a good child."

"Who is talking nonsense like that?"

Zhang Shiyue looked at Xu He carefully again, he didn't have a big frame, but his face was very iconic, with big eyes and regular facial features. Although the skin is not fair, it is the kind of light wheat color with a healthy complexion, which is much more energetic than those young ladies and gentlemen, which is obviously excellent.

Although she was not in the village at first, she also knew about the foolish things Zhang Fangyuan did after the old couple passed away. When she came back to see Xu He, she was a little surprised how A Yuan begged him to come back as his wife.

He is good-looking, capable as a director and housekeeper, and he is not a talkative person.

After getting along for a while, she found that Xu He had no confidence in his appearance and talent at all.

It was only at this time that I realized that it was the people in the village who talked about gossip.

She said patiently: "Today is different from the past. When people live well, it is very different. Look, you are very good now."

"In the early years when my second aunt lived pretty well in a village in another county, that person was also very energetic. People in the village even came to ask which county and village my second aunt was from. They thought that the girls in our village must be pretty. Mei, I want to say kiss."

"The days will be difficult in the future, and people will grow old. Look at Xiao'e, she was also a pretty girl when she was young, and she followed me through hardships. Now people outside have to say that she looks bad. Difficult to give birth to."

Zhang Shiyue's eyes were soft: "Fortunately, I came back and met you, husband and wife, and the fourth child."

"For this reason, people look at good or bad. They are rarely born with great beauty. It depends on how they live and how to support them." Zhang Shiyue smiled and said, "I don't know what you were like before, but I just look at you now." Looks like a little brother that everyone from ten miles to eight towns wants to beg."

Xu He's ears turned red, he had only heard such words from Zhang Fangyuan who was full of nonsense, he was very embarrassed, and felt that Zhang Shiyue regarded her as his own child, so it was good to see her however he wanted.

Still, I was very happy to hear this.

"Hey, I'm too busy talking. There's a melon farmer outside. Let me ask if I want to buy some melons?"

Xu He went out with him. Summer melons and fruits were also plentiful. The old farmer wearing a bamboo hat picked out watermelons and crispy sweet pears.

"Watermelons cost three cents a catty, buy two more and keep them, so guests can cut a plate." The old farmer patted a watermelon in his arms, and let Xu He listen: "It's all ripe, very sweet."

Zhang Fangyuan is a glutton, he eats everything, he also bought watermelon at home and shared it at home, he bought it in the city for five or six yuan a catty, Xu He listened to the price of the old farmer, but he really bought it at the asking price, it was the price he bought in the village .

"There is no asking price. I am from Hongshi Village outside the first two villages. I want to do long-term business with Mr. Xiaolang. Your tea shed will send you melons and fruits at the lowest price. There are also peaches, plums, and so on in the village. Red bayberry!"

Xu He glanced at Zhang Shiyue, and both of them were a little moved. They cut a watermelon and sold it at noon, and there were still many people who bought it.

"Then order a dozen catties, and buy it again when it's sold out. I just don't know how to contact the old man."

The old farmer saw that the business was completed, and the corners of his eyes were creased: "It's easy to contact. I go to the city to sell melons almost every day. When I come back, I will pass by here and ask. I will go back and pick fresh ones if you want them in the tea shed."

Xu He saw that the old melon farmer also had his own ox cart, and the melons and fruits were easy to transport, so he agreed. Sell ​​what you can sell, and take less if you can't sell it. Although the profit is thin, it has an extra income.

While carrying melons into the house, Xu He even asked the old farmer to drink a cup of tea.

Fifteen catties of watermelon cost another forty-five Wen. Xu He looked at the copper coins in the cash box, haha ​​bitterly, he didn't earn much, and spent money quickly.

He has discovered that shopping along the official road is actually very convenient, and spending money is faster than in the city.

But before he was worried for a while, another guest came, this time he met a few peddlers who wanted to prepare dry food.

Xu He took advantage of the time when people rested their feet and drank tea, and immediately baked a few big cakes and wrapped them up.

The peddler who waited for the dry food received the heavy cakes, as if they were pressed by a quilt, and felt quite at ease. I was a little surprised that the tea shed here is so honest.

"What's the name of this tea shed here?"

"Rongyi Tea Shed, under the old banyan tree."

The shopkeeper nodded, and several people greeted each other and continued to set off.

There are not many people who eat at the tea shed at lunch time. They are not like an inn where they can stay overnight. When it gets late, passers-by rush back, and there is no business.

Most of the people passing by were villagers returning home from nearby. Xu He planned to sell some tofu in his spare time.

In the afternoon, only two catties of Zhang Fangyuan's meat were sold, and Xu He collected the meat when it was getting late, and was going to make his own order, so the family ate here before going home.

Xu He saw a familiar figure approaching from a distance, it was her mother Liu Xianglan, carrying a pannier.

From a distance, you can see some vegetables inside.

Xu He knew that it was impossible for her mother to go to the official road, and she must have come for the tea shed.

"Your father said you opened today, so he picked some vegetables and delivered them."

She came to see the tea shed once when it was being repaired, but it was the first time she came here after it was repaired. She put down the basket and began to look around.
